The Hubu Duzhicao compound was already crowded with people, and the judges, writers, calculators, and servants were all summoned to stand back and forth according to their respective ranks.

Chu Huan glanced at the crowd and found that most of them were still in a daze. Seeing a familiar face in the crowd, he beckoned, "Yue Zixi, come here!"

Yue Zixi was just a servant, and he was a low-level official in Duzhicao. He never expected that Chu Huan would call him at this time, he was stunned for a moment, and someone beside him pushed him: "The master is calling you!"

Yue Zixi came back to his senses, hurried out from the crowd, and was about to kneel down when he stepped forward, but Chu Huan had already said, "You don't need to kneel, you go in and get a chair for me."

Yue Zixi agreed, entered the room, brought out a big chair, Chu Huan pointed, and after Yue Zixi put it down, Chu Huan sat on it. Huan already said: "Everyone must know who this official is. There are two things to gather everyone here today. The first thing is to meet everyone and get to know each other." He looked at Dou Yi suddenly, slowly Said: "The second thing is to let everyone understand that I don't care how Du Zhicao lived in the past, but how he will live in the future, he will talk about it today."

Chu Huan's expression was very calm, no longer the same as before, without the slightest smile, and his voice actually had a sense of oppression invisibly.

"I know that there is a saying in the industry, which is called three fires for new officials." Chu Huan sat on the chair and said slowly: "I don't play that kind of thing, and I won't set any fire. I only You know, His Majesty's favor, letting me come to this yamen, is to place high hopes on me. If I can't do my job with all my heart, but just let some people mess around here, I am really ashamed of my Majesty! "

As soon as he said this, many people suddenly changed their colors, and Dou Yi's face became even more ugly.

The "certain people" in Chu Huan's mouth, there is no doubt that he, Dou Yi, bears the brunt of it, but he didn't expect that Chu Huan's words were so clear, and he didn't know how to be reserved at all.

"Everyone probably knows that many people know that I am a warrior, a rough warrior, and a layman. He can't talk around corners, and he doesn't know how to do things flexibly." Chu Huan scratched the tip of his nose, looking at ease, " Let me make it clear first, I am a person who obeys the soft but not hard, and I have nothing to fear when I do things. A warrior has lost his head and has a big scar, so there is nothing to worry about. Although a warrior does things directly, there is an advantage, that is, being reasonable , I don’t have many other strengths, but I like to be reasonable when I do things, and I called everyone here today, in fact, I am talking about the word 'reasonable'!"

"Someone said just now that Mr. Dou wanted to leave Duzhicao, and someone from Chu wanted to force him to leave." Chu Huan said calmly: "The so-called things can't be told to others. Let's all come to judge...Of course, I don't care whether you can really judge right and wrong, but when I do things, I often have to make myself reasonable."

Dou Yi couldn't help but said: "Master Chu, what do you mean by your words, do you mean that we are unreasonable?"

"Wait a minute." Chu Huan waved his hand and said, "Master Dou, don't use the word 'we' all the time, you can't represent everyone, and you have to understand that a good man should be a good man, and if one person does things, don't involve others. You Using the word 'we', it's fine if it's a good thing, but if it's a bad thing, don't you want to involve others?"

Dou Yi opened his mouth, but did not make a sound, but he was a little surprised in his heart, unexpectedly, Chu Huan was an articulate character with sharp teeth.

A judge next to him has already said loudly: "No matter good or bad, we are willing to advance and retreat with Master Dou!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there were seven or eight people echoing them together, but there were more than 80 people, a dense group, and the voices of these seven or eight people didn't seem very spectacular.

After Chu Huan said a few words, there was already a force of oppression. No one knew what Chu Huan would do next. Although there were Dou Yi's confidants who wanted to show their loyalty to Dou Yi at this moment, but after all, the entire support It is impossible for Cao to be all Dou Yi's henchmen. If Dou Yi really wants to commit some disaster, most people still don't want to get involved.

"Okay!" Chu Huan clapped his hands as soon as the judge finished speaking, "President Dou really has a high reputation, and there are so many colleagues who are willing to advance and retreat with you."

Dou Yi only felt that there was something wrong with Chu Huan's words, and immediately said: "Master Chu, my colleagues are only wronged by seeing their humble positions, that's why they are like this."

"Wronged?" Chu Huan sighed, "Master Dou thinks he has been wronged, but I feel that I have been wronged." He raised his head and said loudly: "The reason why Mr. Dou wants to leave Duzhicao It's actually very simple. He took an official letter and claimed to have calculated the repair cost of the Tongren Hall. I just wanted to ask about the specific list, so he claimed that I had doubts about his work... Hehe, to tell you the truth, I The official is very curious about this, a Tongren Hall needs 35 taels of silver to repair, can't this official ask clearly?"

All the officials in Duzhicao looked at each other in blank dismay, all of them showing strange colors.

In fact, as long as you stay in Duzhicao for a while, you will know these things well, and it has always been impossible to say this kind of things to Duzhicao officials, big and small. However, no one would have thought that Chu Huan would reveal this matter in public. Most people thought that Chu Huan was new here and not familiar with the unspoken rules of the household department, so his expression was very strange.

In fact, some people understand that Dou Yi's actions are naturally instigated by the high-level officials of the Ministry of Accounts. Chu Huan publicized the matter loudly in public, which violated the rules of the game of the Ministry of Accounts. He must offend the high-level officials. Talking about it, I'm afraid Chu Huan won't be able to stay in the household department for long.

Some people shook their heads secretly, thinking that the new chief in charge was indeed an idiot with no knowledge of world affairs, a military officer who went to the Ministry of Households to take up a civilian job, and he was out of place, so please go early.

Dou Yi's face was also purple and blue, and he sneered and said: "Master Chu, this is calculated carefully by our Du Zhicao. It's not just one person or two people. Sorry for the disrespectful words. With your ability, is it better than the careful accounting of many officials in our household department?"

Chu Huan sternly said: "Shut up!" He looked at Dou Yi coldly: "Master Dou, you have spoken rudely to this official several times, don't you really know that I have violated this rule in the laws of the King of Qin?"

Dou Yi naturally understood that if he really wanted to investigate what he said several times today, he would be suspected of committing the following crimes, but he insisted that he had a backer behind him, so he didn't take Chu Huan seriously. Hearing what Chu Huan said, he snorted coldly. One sound, no words.

Chu Huan glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "I know that the money of the Ministry of Households can be counted as hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions. In the eyes of everyone, a few hundred thousand taels of silver may not really count. What. But I also believe that many of you were born in poverty, you have also suffered, and you know how every penny in the treasury comes from. You all have parents, brothers and sisters, the money may not be without The blood and sweat of your parents, brothers and sisters, and the money spent in vain, have been allocated so unambiguously, you should really feel at ease."

Chu Huan's words were not loud, but they got into everyone's ears, and many people frowned.

Chu Huan stood up, with his hands behind his back, and continued: "I am indeed ignorant of the affairs of the Ministry of Households, but I also know that the Ministry of Households is the treasury of my Daqin, and it is an important source of money and grain. Calculate, balance the revenue and expenditure of the national treasury. If we do errands, if we do well, we can use the money and food for practical purposes. The top is worthy of the sage, and the bottom is worthy of the people. But if there is too much money in our hearts, how can we be worthy of the sage? How can we be worthy of the people? If that's the case, what is the meaning of our Duzhicao's existence? There are many places in the empire that need to use money. If you can't calculate every amount of money that is allocated, and understand the source, how can you meet the expenses everywhere? Glancing at Dou Yi, he said lightly, "Not to mention that the Northwest and Hebei Roads are in need of a large amount of money and food. If disasters occur in various parts of the empire and the money in the treasury is insufficient, how should we deal with it? We cannot carefully observe the source of the money. To put it bluntly, it is a disaster for the country and the people, and I am a sinner of Daqin!"

Dou Yi's face twitched, and Chu Huan's mouth was full of eloquence. It was really unexpected for him to say so much in one breath.

In fact, many officials in the courtyard began to loosen their hearts. In fact, what Chu Huan said was very reasonable, and it could be said to be righteous. I also know in my heart that things are like this, but everyone understands better that sometimes the truth is like this, but the thing itself is not like this.

Chu Huan's words are very idealistic, but the officials of the household department hold money and food, and the white silver is the most attractive thing in the world. No matter how innocent a person is, after entering the household department, it will gradually deteriorate over time.

Many people are full of ambition when they first join the household department, but after a long time, they realize that ideals and reality will never be on the same line.

Chu Huan's words today are certainly reasonable, but in the eyes of everyone, they are just the words of a newborn calf, and such a person will definitely have difficulty surviving in the big dye tank of the household department.

"I have no other reasons for saying so much. I just want to tell everyone that it is not impossible for me to seal the transfer of money, but it is not reasonable for me to find out where the money is going." Chu Huan walked down the stone steps and came to the middle of the courtyard, "As the chief of Duzhi Cao Zuo, I have the right to ask Chief Dou to make a detailed list, but Chief Dou refused to obey my order. It's disappointment. Now that Master Dou is leaving, I can't keep him. Just now there were people who shouted to leave with Master Dou, but I don't know who it is?" With a stern look and sharp eyes, he swept across the crowd and said in a deep voice : "Whoever wants to leave, stand up for me!"

Chu Huan's voice was extremely cold and even more murderous. Many officials couldn't help but tremble.

Chu Huan's eloquent words have actually made many people loosen their hearts. The unanimous hostility towards Chu Huan before has disappeared a lot because of Chu Huan's long speech.

If Chu Huan had yelled so loudly just now when the crowd was raging, Dou Yi would have fought tit-for-tat if he was a partisan, but now these people have a lot of anger, and Chu Huan's momentum is overwhelming, and no one is there for a while. Respond immediately, and only half a day later did one person boldly say: "I...I want to leave with Master Dou!"

"Who else?" Chu Huan glanced at that person, and said with a sneer, "I speak bluntly, and I understand what Master Dou means, but I just feel that without you, this Duzhicao cannot continue to operate. I am not afraid to tell you that it is hard to find three-legged toads, but there are as many people with two legs as a cow's hair. You are in the household department. It is the grace of the Holy One. I don't know what will happen to you in the future when you leave Duzhicao, but Du Zhicao left you, and the Yamen is still moving." Pointing at Dou Yi, he showed a fierce look, and said coldly: "You are just here as an official, so you want to make a move on this official's head, and you have to use this Threatening this officer, isn't it?"

Seeing that Chu Huan's face was full of murderous intent, Dou Yi's sharp-edged face was extremely cold, and he felt chills in his heart. He took a step back, and then felt that he had lost his composure. Your Excellency...Master Chu, don’t spout blood!"

"If you want to leave, I won't stop you. Except for the two of you, anyone else should stand up." Chu Huan was no longer gentle at this time, and was as cold as ice.

Those who called out before really hesitated at this time.

But Chu Huan had already said: "However, I have to say one more thing. It is not easy for many of you to come to the Ministry of Households. If you ruin your future, don't blame me. Master Dou is going to leave. No, his position, the official will report to the ministers, select someone from among the judges to replace him, the judge will leave, the official will replace him, the official will leave, the official will be promoted, the official will leave, There are also servants, if the servants want to leave, I remember that there are still many candidates in the Guozijian, who can come in at any time." There was a half-smile on his face: "Of course, it is also possible that things may become serious. , the person who leaves will be my official, but if anyone wants to continue the trouble, even if this official is dismissed from office or even loses his head, he will definitely accompany him to the end... This official said that his head lost a big scar. Go to the Ministry of Households and be loyal to the Holy One, you really don't care about life and death!"

Nearly a hundred people in Duzhicao were dumbfounded. No one had seen such a character in the household department for so long.

It is really different for a military man to be a civil servant.

Chu Huan approached a judge, his eyes were like ice, and he said coldly, "You want to go?"

The man was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Humble... I don't dare. I... I am willing to listen to my lord!"

"You want to go?" Chu Huan stared at the other person.

"Don't dare, dare not!" The man's forehead was sweating.

Chu Huan said sharply, "Who else wants to go?"

Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent.

Chu Huan has a good saying, it is not easy for everyone to enter the household department. Some of them spent a lot of money to open up contacts to enter the household department, but more people have gone through wind and rain and thorns all the way. Just being transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs, being in the Six Departments Yamen is a supreme honor, no matter where you go, you will have face, and in the core department of the empire, as long as you work hard, you are not afraid of losing your future in the future.

But at this time, if he really quarreled with Chu Huan to the end, was transferred from the household department, and left the six yamen, his future would be unpredictable. It would not be difficult to show his loyalty to Dou Yi, but it would be a big deal to put his own future into it. .

Seeing that everyone was silent, Chu Huan looked at Dou Yi and said calmly: "Since you two are leaving, I am busy with business, so I won't see you off. It's just that you two have been in the Duzhicao Office for many years, so don't forget the brothers here , when they meet each other, they need to say hello!"
