The ninth chapter Luoyang Palace in the night and moon on the ruins (1)

"Brother Hua, what is the official of the Right County Magistrate of Luoyang County?" Xia Jinzhong asked curiously.

"I am a minor official with a ninth rank. There are six ministers in a county: Sigong, Sicang, Sihu, Judicial, Sihan, and Sishi, just like the six ministries of the Shangshu Province. There are two county magistrates and county magistrates below. One is the judge of meritorious servant, and its office is called the East Office; the other is the judge of military craftsman, and its office is called the West Office. My right county magistrate is in charge of the West Office, responsible for judicial arrest, trial of cases, and inspection and maintenance of street bridges."

Zeng Baohua was a little excited in his words. He originally thought he could only build a errand-running official, such as the military marquis, but he unexpectedly made it directly to the right county magistrate. After a conversion, it was equivalent to the county government-Fakou.

Xing Bo went to inquire two days ago, because the early emperor had a bad news at the beginning of the year, he either died or fled. Now, there are many staff members in various yamen, especially grassroots officials in various counties.

If someone has a background, he can directly seek a leisurely position such as a provincial governor or a servant, or become a small officer, or become an imperial guard and become a small officer. Isn't he good? No matter how bad he is, he can always be with the nobles and always seek progress. However, the county magistrate and chief clerk are not interested in official positions that want to do practical things, so good things fall on him like this. Besides, his official position is just a matter of power and temporary agency, and he can be removed at any time.

After hearing Zeng Baohua's words, Yan Xiaoyi also understood, "Brother Hua, you, the right county lieutenant, is a errand-running activity, but the left county lieutenant is a good job of signing and placing money, grain, taxes and taxes."

"That's all, this is Luoyang County. At the foot of the emperor, there are countless high-ranking officials and nobles. Even when the county magistrate sees their servants, they will bow to him. Which shop on the street is not standing behind the governor? Will the left county magistrate dare to collect their taxes? Also, I, the right county magistrate, should be in charge of the military and thieves in Luoyang County, but I dare to take over the defense of the imperial guards? At most, I will patrol the streets and catch gangsters."

"Three lives are unfortunate, and the magistrate is attached to Guo; three lives are committed evil, and the provincial capital is attached to Guo; all evil is committed, and the capital is attached to Guo Jingcheng. I, the right county magistrate, can be regarded as full of evil."

After hearing Zeng Baohua's self-deprecation, except for Yan Xiaoyi, he understood what it meant and smiled. Yang Chongyi, Xia Jinzhong and Dai Chengen could not understand where the laughter was. They looked at each other and laughed dryly.

Yan Xiaoyi and others were waiting at the door, and Zeng Baohua went directly to the county government office to pay homage to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate, whose "has been full of evil", was surnamed Hu, and was very kind to Zeng Baohua. After all, in addition to the face of the Secretary-General Kong Guanren, the Secretary-General and the Minister of Rites Xu Guanren. Xu Guanren was also a fellow villager of Feng Gong. Feng Gong was highly valued by the officials. Now he is a scholar of Duanming Palace, a minister of the Ministry of War, and is a minister of Henan Prefecture. It is rumored that he will be appointed as the prime minister in not long after.

As an official in Shendu, these tricks must be understood, otherwise they will not last long.

Zeng Baohua did not act as a rebellious person, and he was cautious in keeping with his subordinates' courtesy and answered respectfully. Magistrate Hu saw it and nodded repeatedly, with a better impression of this young man and signed the approval documents readily.

With the approval document, Zeng Baohua also had to go to Henan Prefecture to get his prosecutor and his official uniform. According to the court's laws, officials above the ninth rank had to be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Personnel. Nowadays, there are not so many things to pay attention to. Just a ninth rank sesame official can publish a document in Henan Prefecture.

The Luoyang County Government and Henan Government Government Government Government were separated by four streets. Zeng Baohua and his party turned two streets and met a group of people.

There were 20 or 30 people in total, each with a strong and powerful head. The head was bald, but he was not dressed as a monk, and his tendons had to bulge out of his clothes.

He had a gloomy face and reached out to block Zeng Baohua's way.

"Boy, I've found you. I'm very brave. I took away the money from our Guanguan Master and dared to swagger on the ground. I really don't know how to write the word "death"?"

"Why did this guy say this? I haven't even seen the golden face of the Master of the Pudong Pavilion before, so how could he take his money?" Zeng Baohua must have denied it! He is about to become an official, so he can't bear the stigma. The ninth-rank sesame official must also be innocent.

"The man is so noble that he forgets things about Nanhua Temple outside the east gate." The visitor said viciously.

"Haha, we have been staying in Nanhuaguan. With this, we slandered us as thieves? If that's the case, then I have the ancestral golden lock on me and suddenly disappeared. You happened to have passed by me, brother. Can you say that this golden lock was stolen by brother?"

Zeng Baohua said bluntly. He had guessed the origin of these people. He didn't want to have troubles a few days ago, so he kept avoiding them. Now I am also an official and dare to walk on the street openly.

A flush appeared on the bald man's face, and he must have been very angry. In Dongcheng, there are people who dared to quarrel with him like this. It's so long to see you!

"So brave! Everyone here is here. If you go to the government office to report the case, you can ask the official to take you immediately! At that time, you will definitely tell you what the official law is like a furnace!" The bald man scolded with a gloomy face, "But there are a lot of our museum owners. As long as you go over and explain it clearly, this matter will be cancelled!"

It seems that this is under the feet of the emperor, and on the streets of Yudao, the bald men and the group of bald men still have some taboos and dare not go too far. Zeng Baohua and his group are not good at plagiarism, and they will definitely be very disturbing when they act. Then the imperial guards come to arrest people, which will be difficult to deal with. Find ways to lead them to remote places and then cook them well.

"So amazing? But boy, you can't go to Luoyang County to report the case. You have to go to Henan County or Henan Prefecture to report the case."

The bald man was stunned by Zeng Baohua's words, "Why?"

"If you don't have talent, you will be appointed as the right county magistrate of Luoyang County. You can't report the case. I'll ask the public to arrest me!"

As Zeng Baohua finished speaking, Xia Jinzhong burst into laughter. Amid the laughter, the bald man's face changed for a while, and finally said disdainfully: "The right county magistrate, the official with a big booster, dares to take it out and scare us men."

I have a very tough tone. I know that your Puji Martial Arts Hall was rampant in Dongcheng for a while, and there must be noble people behind it. However, an official is an official. Even a ninth-rank sesame official is not something you, a sage-sama, can’t afford to be a vain person. If there is a conflict, you will know that the official law is like a furnace first, and it must be you. This is an insurmountable rule.

Zeng Baohua had a sneer on the corner of his mouth and stared at the bald man. After a while, the guy couldn't stand it. He pointed at Zeng Baohua and said a harsh sentence: "Let's go and see!" Then he hurriedly left with everyone.

"We continue to rush to the government office."

Zeng Baohua met Gongcao's army in the Mojian Hall of Henan Prefecture. He received the document of confession and was about to get up to say goodbye, but a servant hurried over.

"Can you sign in here if you are Wei Zeng, the Wei of the Right County of Luoyang County?"

Zeng Baohua quickly stood up and replied, "It's exactly what I'm going to do."

"Prime Minister Kong summons me, please follow me."

Seeing Zeng Baohua leaving with the servant, several books and office workers surrounded Gongcao Senjun and asked whispered: "Where is this young man?"

The prefect of Henan is usually a prince or prince, but the actual person in charge of the affairs of Henan Prefecture was Quan Zhi. He was an important official in the court, under the six ministers and above the ministers. Going down there were the magistrates, the officials, the officers of the officials of the Ministry of Justice, and the six ministers. In other words, although the official Kong Jie and Kong were not at high rank, he was the second in command of the Henan Prefecture. He actually summoned a small right county magistrate, which of course attracted attention.

Gongcao joined the army with a smile and said nothing, which seemed unfathomable. In fact, he was cursing in his heart, "You ask me, who will I go?" I was also confused! Si Lu joined the army and sent a letter directly, and I closed my eyes and did it. Who knows what tricks are there?

"A subordinate Zeng Baohua has met the Tongzong Guanren."

Kong Jie is in his early forties, with a round face and a slightly fat person, and is of medium size. He is wearing a green green dress with flower and bird patterns. He sits upright there and looks solemn.

He looked up and down Zeng Baohua, who was five feet and six inches tall, looked very tall. He had a slight childishness in his face. After all, he was only seventeen years old and needed to be trained. His nose was like a brave man, his eyes were like a star, and his thick eyebrows were raised into the clouds, showing off his talent. He also advanced and retreated in moderation and observing politeness. He was indeed a child of aristocratic families.

Kong Jie nodded with satisfaction and said loudly: "Now that the new emperor ascended the throne, there are many things to be done. The court is short of manpower, especially in prefectures and counties. Luoyang and Henan counties are the most important places under the feet of the emperor. The right county magistrate who is responsible for catching and eliminating traitors is even more responsible. There is no suitable candidate, so it has been vacant. Brother Xu's mansion is a master of talent and he recommends you."

"Although you are only young, you are already a child and can dance. When you are employed, you are not aware of your subordinates. You are a little gentleman. Now you are here to give me some advice. You must do your best to do your job carefully and not to wipe out the face of Brother Xu's mansion."

"If I go back to the judge Kong Tong, my subordinates will keep in mind the teachings of the officials and take good care of their work. I will definitely not dare to lose the face of the officials and Xu Gong."

"That's good. Do you have any other requirements?" Kong Jie, who was very satisfied, asked more questions when he saw Zeng Baohua so sensible.
