Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 630 Are You Jinyiwei All Country People?
In the slightly dilapidated No. [-] hall of the Jinyiwei Suzhou Qianhu Office, Xu Youcheng of the Qianhu is listening to the reports of several hundred households stationed in the prefectures and counties below.

This yamen away from the south gate of Suzhou City was originally the office of the Suzhou Guard Command Office. Last year, after Zhu Youjian ordered the abolition of the Jiangnan Guard Office, it became the office of the newly established Jinyiwei Qianhu Office.

Xu Youcheng, who was over [-] years old, was originally the deputy thousand householder of the [-]th household office of the capital, and Li Ruolian, the current commander of the capital, is a fellow from Qingzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province, and they are very close on weekdays.

Not long ago, the original capital ordered Luo Yangxing to fall, and after Li Ruolian assumed power, a large-scale personnel adjustment was made at the same time as Wei Nei's rectification. Xu Youcheng was promoted to Suzhou Thousand Households Institute two months ago.

In the two months since he took office, Xu Youcheng first took the time to run around the streets and alleys of Suzhou in order to familiarize himself with the local customs, and then devoted his energy to the intelligence gathering and research of the big gentry households in Suzhou and the states and counties under his jurisdiction.

As soon as he had a general understanding of the important people in the area under his jurisdiction, the turmoil caused by the integration of gentry and gentry with food spread across the south of the Yangtze River, and hundreds of households in various prefectures and counties who received instructions also began to work separately to prevent greater turmoil occur.

Just when Xu Youcheng and his subordinates analyzed and judged where the matter was going to develop, the captain on duty at the gate came to report, and Ren Yuanshan, who knew Suzhou Prefecture together, came to the Qianhu Office and said that he had something important to discuss with him.

After a little thought, Xu Youcheng knew that Ren Yuanshan's sudden visit must have something to do with the intensifying turmoil in the city, otherwise the two groups who were regarded as bandits and enemies would not have had any intersection at all.

Of course Xu Youcheng knew that the Suzhou government sent people to tear up the posts every day, and all the people in the Qianhu Office scoffed at the civil servant's behavior of treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Directly arrange people to squat at night to arrest those who dare to come out to post paperwork, and then stay in place for three days to see who dares to post in the future. Such a simple trivial matter is so useless, it is like following others all day It's like wiping someone's butt afterward, does this still have the dignity of the government?
"Tongzhi Ren please come to the second hall to meet!"

Xu Youcheng ordered casually, the captain saluted, turned around and left the second hall, and invited Ren Yuanshan who was looking up at the sky in the front yard to come in.

"Is this Xu Qianhu face to face? I know Ren Yuanshan of Suzhou Prefecture. Because something important happened today, which is related to the reputation of the Tian family, I was sent by the governor to meet Xu Qianhu face to face!"

Ren Yuanshan, who had been mentally prepared for Xu Youcheng's failure to meet him, didn't take it seriously.

He knew that most of these rough people had this kind of virtue, and there were very few people who were educated and polite. It was difficult for people like Lu Bing, the governor of Sejong, who were close to civil servants to appear again.

"It's Xu, what exactly did Tongzhi Ren say? Who dares to slander the Tian Family? Please tell Tongzhi Ren quickly!"

Xu Youcheng thought that Ren Yuanshan's visit was because some things were inconvenient to come forward, and he wanted Jin Yiwei to do the dirty work, but he didn't expect the other party to throw out a big news.

Hearing Ren Yuanshan say that the Tian family's reputation was involved, Xu Youcheng's relaxed expression suddenly turned gloomy.

He took a step forward and looked directly at the round-faced civil servant in front of him, urging repeatedly, and the hundreds of households who did not leave also stared at Ren Yuanshan, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became dignified.

After Xu Youcheng took office, he just took a free time to pay a courtesy visit to Fang Wen, the prefect, and he didn't care about the second official in other prefectures.

It's not that he is so arrogant, this is actually just a practice in the pro-military.

As a Tian family eagle dog, he must not get too close to any civil servants, otherwise, he will be sent to a corner immediately to stay there.

"I've heard for a long time that the military family has a great business, so it seems that there is no shortage of money and food, but how can this government office be so shabby? There is not even a servant who serves tea and water. Xu Qianhu and you are really honest and honest, hehe!"

Seeing the impatient expressions of Xu Youcheng and others, Ren Yuanshan looked around at the simple layout of the hall with his hands behind his back, and he was filled with emotion.

"Fuck! These bullshit civil servants will put on a stinky air no matter what time it is!"

When Xu Youcheng saw Ren Yuanshan acting like this, he immediately understood in his heart that the other party thought he was too negligent just now, and he was taking advantage of this opportunity.

"Hey, it's a bit impolite to only care about business!
Come, show Ren Tongzhi some tea!
Let's sit together! "

Resisting the urge to punch the opponent's fat face in a circle, Xu Youcheng put on a face with a smile on his face, yelled casually, made a gesture of invitation, and then took the lead in Sitting down on a high-ranking chair, Ren Yuanshan Shiran walked across to him, lifted up his official uniform and sat down firmly.

A hundred households turned around the screen of the second hall and shouted towards the backyard, while the others stood in the lower hall, waiting for Ren Yuanshan to speak.

"Is what Ren Tongzhi just said about Tianjia's reputation a rumor in the market or a public post? Are there any relevant witnesses? How many people have heard about it now? What is it rumored about?"

Xu Youcheng looked at the other party's appearance, and his anxious mind became calm.

Let's figure out what happened now.

Since the incident has already happened, it must not have happened just now, and there is no point in being anxious, let's first listen to what's going on.

At this time, an old man walked slowly from the back of the second hall with a teapot, came to Xu Youcheng and refilled the teacup on the low table with tea, then turned around and came to Ren Yuanshan's side, picked up a small table that was used by others. He shook his hands and poured the remaining tea on the ground, poured new tea, and then slowly turned around the screen to the backyard with the teapot in hand.

"Xu Qianhu is a capable talent, and he speaks directly to the vital points. I admire, admire!
However, I still want to say one more thing, Xu Qianhu is also a fifth-rank status, this way of hospitality is like that of a countryman, why is he so careless?Such behavior is disrespectful to the imperial court! "

"Hehe, this,,,,
Wu Qian, take out some money later, and hire a clean lady, the old yellow head will be in charge of cleaning in the future! "

Xu Youcheng smiled awkwardly at first, and then finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and vented to a hundred households angrily.

To be ridiculed by this fat man as a countryman, I can't afford to lose this man.

The old Cangtou who poured tea just now was a former military household of the Suzhou Guards. He had never been married in his life, and all his family members had died long ago. He lived alone in the Suzhou Guards Command Office. Seeing his pity, he stayed.

Usually, the old Huangtou was in charge of sweeping the lobby and the second hall, and when there was something to discuss, he would come out to pour water, but he was not tired at all. The Thousand Household Office paid him five taels of silver a month, and he was given room and board in the guard.

Jin Yiwei has a rule that the office is strictly forbidden to hire unmarried women. Xu Youcheng didn't care too much when he first arrived, so the old Huangtou has been hanging around in the office.

People in the daily guards did not treat him as an outsider, and many government schools would bring some leftover food and drinks from outside to meet him, and the old Huangtou didn't dislike him either.

Satisfied, the old Huangtou has also stated that when he dies in the future, he hopes that the guards will find a place for him to bury him, and he has saved up all the money for the coffin.

Ren Yuanshan saw that Xu Youcheng was showing signs of going berserk, so he put away his teasing intentions and briefly explained the matter of exposing the post, and then got up and left without waiting for Xu Youcheng's reaction.
