Chapter 41 Track
?Thief people came out of Duke Zhu's mansion. Two long-time workers who had just been recruited in the mansion tried to assassinate Duke Zhu, but this was a surprise because the guards stopped him when the other party was about to take action.
The murderer was captured alive and was imprisoned in the state prison that day. After the crime was found, the king and law would be dealt with. However, according to reliable information, the murderer may have been a remnant of the privately conquered criminal who had been rectified before and wanted to assassinate the Lord of the Kingdom of Zhu to take revenge.
This incident only caused a rippling ripple in Xiyang City, and no one cared about it sooner. Duke Zhu was unscathed and the murderer did not run away. Sooner or later, he would have to stab him in the neck. For the people, if the execution was publicly executed, then there would be a glimpse.
The next day, in Duke Zhu's mansion, a group of people waiting for dinner outside the kitchen gathered in front of the notice board, stretched their heads to look at the latest notice posted. Yesterday, there were brave thieves who dared to assassinate the man. For a moment, there were all kinds of statements. Today, the announcement was to "clearize" the matter.
After countless "study classes", the servants and guards recognized the words, so they could understand the content of the notice. In fact, the content was very simple. It means that two thieves were recruited to work as long-term workers as carpenters. With the help of Nei Yingjiang's manager, they prepared a weapon with the intention of being indiscriminate.
Yesterday, the thief intended to commit a crime, but unfortunately someone found that his appearance was suspicious and reported it in time, so he avoided a bloody disaster. Although this matter was carefully planned, it was still "evil cannot defeat the righteous". The thief was knocked and taken down just as he was about to take action.
"Zhao Chutou and Zhou Xizi, who reported the assassin, each rewarded five jin of money. Everyone is welcome to pay attention to people with suspicious signs around them. If you report a heavy reward..."
"Five stakes of money! I would have reported it if I had known this. Those two guys would have known at a glance that they were not good people!"
"Come on, you, does Manager Jiang look like a good person? Who knew that he was so ill-intentioned? Fortunately, the mansion is so kind to him, he really knows people but not his heart!"
"I said what is the manager Jiang's plan? It's good to have food, accommodation and treatment in the mansion, so why are you so wolf-hearted and pig-hearted?"
"It's not pig's lungs, it's wolf's heart and dog's lungs. I forgot it after just a few days of studying?"
"If I ask me, it's good that the mansion is more strict. If those cats and dogs are allowed to come in casually, something big will happen sooner or later."
“That’s it…”
A group of people sighed there, and several people around him quietly "float" him. The first one was Butler Li, whose sense of existence was at two extremes in the mansion.
"It's time to eat!"
As the kitchen aunt in the kitchen raised her voice, everyone scattered like birds and animals, rushing towards the kitchen to line up to get food.
"No leftovers are allowed!!"
The aunt's routine signboard was over and lunch time officially began. Li Sanjiu looked back at the empty bulletin board and continued to move forward. Someone would call his meals, so he didn't have to worry about it.
This is not Li Sanjiu's airs. He is so busy that he has no time to go to the kitchen to eat. As the housekeeper of Duke Zhu's mansion, he has countless things on hand. He wishes he could have the ability to clone himself and turn into two people to do things.
When I moved into the backyard, I came to the Tingtao Courtyard of the Langzhu. When I entered the study, I saw the guard leader Fu Youcai "reported to Yuwen Wen".
"The three of them have confessed. As the housekeeper Li discovered, Jiang Hua was indeed involved with the private casting criminal Li Xiama. The evidence is conclusive and the stolen person is both captured, and he will inevitably get the knife in the neck."
"It turned out to be Li Xiama's illegitimate son... Haha, what's going on with the other three fish that escaped the net now?"
"Master Lang, those three people came to the mansion that day and were defeated. They came out of the mansion and were arrested in prison. There was nothing wrong with it. Some people couldn't stand it and took the initiative to confess and were now waiting to deal with it."
Yuwen Wen nodded and asked Li Sanjiu, "Butler Li, has the announcement been posted?"
"Master Huilang, I've posted it."
"Very good. People often complain that the mansion has too many rules, too strict and too troublesome. Now this matter is just for them to see. If it weren't for the rules, there would be more than three people who were involved in it!"
"It is difficult to guard against thieves every day and night. If the servants can't control it, something will happen sooner or later. You two should supervise more and don't let the servants take those rules seriously."
"Yes, the man."
"You two directors are good at this drama. Originally, you could have captured these three people directly, but the effect is a little worse. Now you have acted in a big drama, which has allowed everyone to receive education. This is much more useful than the usual way to repeatedly say something about it."
The work was recognized, and Li Sanjiu and Fu Youcai both showed joy. They were younger than the Langzhu and took on the heavy responsibility of the mansion. They were afraid that they would not do well and mislead things. The Duke of Zhu was their home and would never allow any accidents.
"Master Lang, this fishing operation has been successfully completed. So is the old man in the straw straw hat going to collect the pole?"
"Calling the rod? No, keep fishing." Yuwen Wen said with a smile, "I hope you will take the bait. Since someone wants to be unfavorable to me, I will give them a chance!"
......
In a corner of the Duke of Zhu Guo’s mansion, Li Sanjiu walked into a ** yard and came to his "office" in the two-story building in the courtyard. The Ministry of Internal Affairs, an institution with a strange name, is located here.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs, as the name suggests, is responsible for the "internal affairs" of Duke Zhu's mansion, and is subdivided into several "departments" and together assumes the function of a housekeeper. Of course, the leader of this housekeeper is Li Sanjiu.
Duke Yuwen Wen of Zhu was young, and Li Sanjiu was younger than Langzhu. Although young people were energetic, there were many affairs in Duke Yuwen’s mansion. Li Sanjiu could not bear it sooner or later, so Yuwen Wen set up the Ministry of Internal Affairs to assist the housekeeper.
Although the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has many departments, which are corresponding to the management of various affairs in the government. They are classified into categories like a small official office, with no less than 30 related personnel.
Li Sanjiu initially thought that this was a redundant employee and could not do much with his salary. He thought that he could do multiple jobs alone and work more efficiently. However, as Duke Zhu's family business expanded, the benefits of a specialized institution were revealed.
The housekeeper is nothing more than managing people and affairs. It is easy to say and cumbersome to do. Just managing people can make Li Sanjiu look too big, but with a complete department of the Interior Affairs Department, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
Li Sanjiu does not have to do everything himself, and each department will take responsibility. If you want to know the progress of the relevant affairs, you only need to ask the department head. This is the so-called "general".
Yuwen Wen did not need Li Sanjiu to "soldiers". As one of the most trusted confidants of Duke Zhu, Li Sanjiu only needs to take charge of the overall situation and assist the boss and the mistress and the housekeeper, but this does not mean that he is very free.
Li Sanjiu is still very busy because he still has a department in charge of internal surveillance and wants to kill all unstable factors in the bud.
In a corner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, several young people were writing at their desks. They were orphans adopted by Duke Zhu, with good character and outstanding performance. After learning to read and write, they were arranged to do things here.
They have separate residences and have little communication with other servants in the mansion. They live in two points and one line in the dormitory and office every day. What they are responsible for is sorting out various "tips".
Duke Wu put his eyes and ears in the mansion, and quietly watched or listened to the words and deeds of all the servants, guards and servants in the mansion, and then passed them here, and summarized them by these young people to draw the trajectory of each person.
There are hundreds of servants in the mansion. Even if you are careful when recruiting people, you will inevitably let people get in. What's more, people's hearts will change. How to prevent evil servants from harming the master is a question that Li Sanjiu needs to consider.
Knowing people, knowing their faces but not their hearts. There is no mind-reading technique in this world, so Li Sanjiu uses the method of drawing trajectories to judge how "stability" a person is.
A person's words and deeds will inadvertently reflect what he thinks, but to realize this emotion, you need to observe carefully and patiently for a long time. The organization led by Li Sanjiu is responsible for long-term observation.
The servants in the mansion have established personal files here, and their daily attendance, outing status, and words and deeds will be reflected here on 365 days a year.
If a person's performance is dull, the drawn trajectory is almost a straight line. If there is fluctuation on a certain day, it means that the person needs to pay attention. If it fluctuates or fluctuates greatly for a period of time, then measures must be taken.
This kind of thing is trivial and troublesome to do, but Li Sanjiu led his men to persevere. In several years, the first servant named Jiang Hua was the first to fluctuate in the trajectory.
Four years ago, Yuwen Wen went to Bazhou to serve as the governor, and his mansion moved to Xiyang City. He recruited some servants from the outside to work in the mansion. Jiang Hua was one of them. This person has always performed well and has no abnormalities, so he was later promoted to a manager and a long-term and short-term worker.
His trajectory has always been very stable. Li Sanjiu originally thought that Jiang Hua was a man of great talent, and he planned to recommend it to the Langzhu so that he could have more appointments. As a result, he discovered that this person's trajectory had "fluctuated".
It was still violent. Jiang Hua, who had been saying that he was alone, had asked for leave many times and had been out for a long time. He chatted and laughed happily with his companions on weekdays, but Jiang Hua began to remain silent and often dazed, but when others asked, he passed by.
There was a problem, and it was a big problem. Li Sanjiu contacted something outside at that time and then began to be alert: the man ordered the private furnace that minted bad money, and hundreds of people were arrested in various prefectures and counties.
Could it be that Jiang Hua is involved with those criminals? Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why his abnormality arose during the same period of time.
The private casting case killed everyone. If Jiang Hua really had relatives and friends who died because of this, he would most likely take the risk to assassinate Yuwen Wen. Li Sanjiu came up with this judgment and decided to take action immediately.
Jiang Hua claimed that he was helpless and could not find out from his hometown, but there was another way to try out the truth, that is, fishing.
This is a trap that is proficient and cannot be more proficient. In the early years, Yuwen Wen used this trick to deal with the prisoners of Chen Jun who were coolies, and the effect was good. Therefore, "promoting and applying" Li Sanjiu decided to try the truth.
Then Jiang Hua really took the bait.
The old man from the straw straw hat sent by Li Sanjiu successfully gained Jiang Hua's trust, and then secretly struggled with five "patriots" and wanted to attack Yuwen Wen. The fish was taken to the bait, so how to deal with it is a problem.
Directly erase?
This plan was rejected by Yuwen Wen. He asked Li Sanjiu and Fu Youcai to direct a play to give the servants in the mansion a "safety education class".
The effect was very good, Yuwen Wen was very satisfied, and Li Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief. Facing his subordinates’ request for what to do next, he said: "Let No. 1 of the straw raincoat-glass hold the rod, and No. 2 connect it to put the rod to fish!"
