6. Meeting the government to learn to walk
It seems that all clues are pointing to Quan Yu!
Who is Quan Yu? He was born in the Andong Quan family. He was from the Quan Li Na family who was the marshal of the capital when Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded the dynasty. He was also a member of the Beijing noble family with generations of hairpins. The brothers Quan Zhe Shen and Quan Rishen who died more than ten years ago
However, the famous scholars of the Practical School were the Catholics of the early Li Dynasty.
Now the Quan family is not that good. After Quan Shangxia's death, the Anton Quan family fell from the peak of the first-class gentry. To be honest, their old Quan family fell into disgrace earlier than the Fengshan Hong family. Don't look at the Quan family now.
Yu is in charge of the central government affairs, but he is Scorpion’s butt—the only one.
But no matter how bad it is, it is definitely not something Hong Jinglai can handle!
His arms were thicker than his waist. Let alone reality, if he met him, Hong Jinglai would stop on the side of the road and bow to him.
In short, collect the information first, have a good idea, and be prepared if you really want to use it.
When Han Zhen, who had been arranged before, got the money right, he finally changed his official title and suddenly became a Langguan. Now when he goes out, he has a silver crown hanging on his hat, which is very dignified.
Han Que can be regarded as half of the people recommended by Hong Jinglai. Although he has not established any relationship, he still has this level. Now Han Que has been calling "Gelang" affectionately.
There are too many, so maybe calling Hong Jinglai Big Brother is not a no-brainer.
Hong Jinglai told him that when he arrived in Donglai, as long as he served as peace officer for three years, the properties that Li Xi would take care of were all the properties left by Hong Jinglai. As for these properties, Han Que should not take care of them.
Just don’t see it.
If you want to make money, just follow Li Xi's path and boldly buy and sell with various vassals in southwestern Japan. You don't have to pay taxes anyway, so you can make money from this business.
If Guo Guo is finished with this task, if there is still a way, help him move back to Hanyang. Anyway, let's talk about it first, whether it will succeed or not depends on Hong Jinglai's future development.
After seeing off Han Que and his entourage, Hong Jinglai began to work at the Uijeongbu government. It was said that he was responsible for checking documents, submitting documents, collecting and other duties, but in fact it was the supervisors of the Uijeongbu government who made the decisions, and the chores had their own duties.
Work on various bookstores.
If something big happens and the Uijeongbu cannot solve it, usually Kim Dal-soon, Kim Jo-soon, and Park Jong-gyeong will discuss it. The entire Uijeongbu government is actually not much different from the secretariat of the three of them, and the decision-making power rests with these three
in hand.
By the way, the current leader of the House of Representatives is named Seo Mai-soo, and he is the prime minister. After being squeezed out by these three people, he only has the power to decide how much food expenses the government will pay each month.
The three brothers of the Xu family, Xu Maixiu, Xu Qixiu, and Xu Yingxiu, are in the court, as well as Xu Zhixiu, Xu Haoxiu, Xu Dingxiu and other contemporaries. The next generation includes Xu Youju, Xu Youxun, Xu Youlin, Xu Youfang, and Xu Youda. Because most of them are old and eccentric.
The faction still has some influence in Hanyang at the moment.
However, the Xu family is not a first-class noble family in Beijing. Moreover, after the death of Xu Jinglin (the emperor's consort in the Seonjo Dynasty), the reputation of the family began to decline. Nowadays, despite the political affairs of the leader, the power is not high.
Therefore, the three bosses who are actually in charge of the government usually fight in alliances and unite in struggles, but the government still has to deal with it! Princess Jeongsun is a woman. Although she is the ruler of the court, she is responsible for the appointment of personnel above the third rank.
The actual general affairs are not handled by these foreign officials.
During these days in the Uijeongbu government, I imagined that the remote faction and the current faction were fiercely fighting each other, and that there was never a scene of tit-for-tat confrontation between the Kim family and the Park family. The several eunuchs in the court were really harmonious every day, after attending court or in person.
Wanjun, when you come back to handle government affairs, you let me and I let you, just like old classmates who have been together for decades.
When it was time to eat at noon, they often shared the table and chatted happily over tea. They just laughed and laughed heartily every day.
Apart from these three top bosses, if you look down, you must know that Kim Dal-soon was defeated by Min Jung-hyeop when he was appointed as the Hwanghae Province Observer. However, he is now the right councilor, above Min Jung-hyeop, but he has no power at all.
There is no hostility or prejudice, at least on the surface.
They met and said hello, sat down to have breakfast together, and went to the palace to meet the king together. It was completely impossible to tell that the two of them had such a story.
So I am the prisoner, and Hong Jing is my younger brother!
There is indeed a gap in rank!
Even when a small role like Hong Jinglai paid homage to the superiors, the superiors encouraged him a lot, spoke nicely, and were kind to others. Hong Jinglai was not even asked to stand and answer, and was allowed to sit down.
Listen more, watch more, and learn more! Not to mention Hong Jing coming, even our teacher Min Jingxue behaves with caution every day and tells Hong Jing to be more careful.
Another point is that Hong Jinglai has basically bid farewell to the lazy life. He has to get up at five to six o'clock every day to go on duty. The reason is very simple, who calls you the most junior. Now, the junior people have to go to clean the house early and burn
The water is ready for making tea. Why don't you come early and help the governors to light the charcoal fire and make the stove and call for hot water to make the tea?
If there is a big court, breakfast will have to be prepared. Although there will be servants in the Yamen to prepare or buy it in advance, the task of ordering the food will not fall on Hong Jinglai to ask the eunuchs what they want to eat.
In the past month or so since Hong Jing has been here, he looks like a clerk in the General Affairs Office. He spends most of every day at work fussing over trivial matters, except for the work of distributing labor protection supplies on Women's Day and Labor Day.
"You've become more proficient at it lately." Min Jingyou said to Hong Jinglai with a smile as they rode back together.
"Sir made fun of you."
"Hahahahaha, it was like this back then." Min Jingyue laughed as if recalling the glorious past.
"I thought I was in charge of military and state affairs, but I never thought that I would be working with pots and pans and dusting rags every day." Hong Jinglai didn't know what to say.
If we go back to our hometown of Tieshan, then the Hong family master is a dignified government official in Hanyang. He manages government affairs with the prime minister Zhengcheng every day and is responsible for national affairs.
But in fact he is just a handyman, at most a high-level handyman.
"Used to it!"
"By the way, sir, do you know the past of Quan Shu Mansion?" Hong Jinglai made some insinuations.
"Quan Shufu?" Min Jingyou looked around.
"Yes."
"Know a thing or two."
"Sir, do you know what the Privy Council did when choosing the princess before His Majesty's wedding?" Hong Jinglai asked cautiously.
"Well? This is not the place to talk. Come home and explain it in detail." Min Jingyue suddenly felt nervous.
There is a door!
