People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 374: The embarrassing civil servant comes to give gifts again!

It turned out that these people who came to give gifts had already met an hour ago.

Originally, they felt a little embarrassed when these officials came to give them gifts.

After all, he had already had such a mess with Chen Han, and it would be a bit inappropriate to come and curry favor with him now.

But when they thought about their future, they gave up this reserve.

Many officials even thought they were very smart. After all, some officials were still reserved when they were at the Imperial University of Peking. They felt that since Chen Han was not in the capital and they went to curry favor with him, they were simply giving gifts to Chen Han's women.

Since ancient times, officials can be regarded as literati, and they have always looked down on women, but I didn't expect that today they would be so eager to give gifts to a woman.

If this kind of thing were to get out, it would actually be very embarrassing, but now they are willing to give up all their dignity for the sake of their own future.

However, there are more than one or two people who have this idea.

It seemed that those who had said at the beginning that they would never come to Chen Han’s mansion, now seemed to have made an agreement and were all going to Chen Han’s mansion.

The Shuntian prefect was the first one to return to his mansion and start preparing things.

On the way, his housekeeper was very confused.

"Sir, you said that our relationship with Chen Han has become so bad, and you even impeached him in order to work with the Minister of Rites of Enshi. Isn't it too late for us to go now?"

What the butler said makes sense.

This matter started from the very early days when Chen Han started to carry out reforms.

The Minister of Rites at that time was a very stubborn person.

In order to collect evidence of Chen Han's crimes, even the governor of Shuntian Prefecture was mobilized and his men were sent to investigate Chen Han's whereabouts.

This kind of thing is extremely taboo, but they found an excuse for themselves saying that they were doing it for the good of the world.

So they followed Chen Han for several days, and when they didn't find anything wrong, they falsely accused Chen Han, saying that the world was talking about his reforms.

The Wanli Emperor at that time did not take it seriously and sent them away.

Later, the Minister of Rites was killed by Chen Han in the Meridian Gate, and the matter came to an end.

The then Shuntian prefectural governor even watched his mentor being killed in front of his own eyes.

He had nightmares for several days because of this incident.

Now he can't sleep whenever he thinks of that scene. He originally thought that he would never have to deal with Chen Han again in his life.

But after seeing how Chen Han's assistant Sophia had created such a great Imperial University yesterday, he knew that if he didn't join Chen Han now, he would have no chance in the future, so he went there against all odds.

In response to this question from the housekeeper, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture had already found an excuse.

"In the officialdom now, besides Chen Han, the big tree you can rely on, can you find other big trees?"

The butler didn't know what to say.

"Sir, I just think that if we go like this, it probably won't do any good. Chen Han is not in the capital, and his woman may not help us pass on the message."

"Let's do our best and leave the rest to fate. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must seize it." The governor of Shuntian Prefecture no longer had time to think about other issues.

The butler had no choice but to accept the master's words.

The prefect of Shuntian was still muttering to himself: What a fucking world this is. Officials of the Ming Dynasty are now reduced to fawning over women.

Thinking of what Sophia said at the opening ceremony of Imperial University of Peking and Emperor Wanli's expectations for No. 3, everyone knows that now is not the time to complain. Maybe one day Sophia will really fly to the tree and become a phoenix, and at that time she may even ride on the heads of herself and others.

They felt particularly uncomfortable when they thought that there might be a woman over their heads to take charge.

I don’t know what the emperor saw in Chen Han. No matter how you look at him, Chen Han doesn’t look like someone who can accomplish great things. How could he be allowed to act so recklessly?
This is what the Shuntian prefect cannot understand and what is troubling him now.

The housekeeper continued, "Fortunately, Master, you are not as pedantic as the other adults, and you know that now is the best time. I guess the other adults are still muttering that you must never bow down to a woman, so they don't take this matter seriously and are just relaxing at home.

When they want to come back and give gifts, we, as the first ones to give gifts, will definitely be remembered by those women. "

After hearing the housekeeper's words, Shuntian Prefecture Governor finally had a smile on his face. This was what he was thinking about.

At that time, the Left Censor-in-Chief had said something so harsh, saying that anyone who wanted to curry favor with Chen Han was a spineless person. I guess many officials don't dare to come now.

As long as they don't take action, I will be the first person to try it, and all the benefits will be mine.

"This is what they call people who can put down their face can accomplish great things. Remember, the least valuable thing in this world is your face. Especially if an official puts his face first all day long, he will never be able to accomplish anything great."

The housekeeper agreed with this.

He fully learned from his master what it means to throw away one's reputation to do things.

……

However, what they didn't expect was that in another carriage.

At this time, the Left Censor-in-Chief was also leading his men towards Chen Han's residence.

When the old Zuodu Yushi was at the Imperial University of Peking, he faced officials and rebuked them with great force, saying that they had no bones.

However, once he actually returned to the hinterland, he immediately began to prepare to visit Sofia.

Even his family members didn't understand this matter.

After all, even the old man Zuodu Yushi at home was very dismissive of Chen Han's behavior, and even often said some words that he wanted to step on Chen Han under his feet. But he didn't expect that her woman would actually visit Chen Han today.

You should know that Chen Han is not in Beijing now.

Now Chen Han’s mansion is full of women.

If I go there, I might not even be able to get through the door.

After all, they are all women and it is impossible for them to let these grown men in.

The Left Censor-in-Chief also has his own logic.

Especially after his wife asked him in confusion, he became even more confident.

That's what his wife said.

"Master, you often complain at home, saying that Chen Han deserves death and that his reforms are a disaster for the country and the people, but now you want to dress up and visit me. This is really unacceptable to me."

The old man, Zuodu Yushi, combed his beard and asked, "What is it that you cannot accept?"

Madam said: "Before, in my mind, you were a man of integrity, but now you say that you are irreconcilable with Chen Han, but now you want to visit him.

I heard from someone who came back from the Imperial University that you criticized those officials who wanted to surrender to Chen Han at the Imperial University as spineless. They were spineless, but your actions now have spine?"

Unexpectedly, the Left Censor-in-Chief laughed out loud: "Since everyone can be boneless, why should I have bones? What's the use of having bones? Can I take them apart and boil them into soup?"

Hearing the shameless words of the Left Censor-in-Chief, the lady got a little angry, "Master, I admired you before because you were upright and upright, and because you could take action when necessary. Why are you getting more and more afraid of things as you get older?" The Left Censor-in-Chief comforted her, "That was because we were young and ignorant. Now I have finally become one of the Seven Ministers. How can I easily ruin my future for a little shame?

Even though this Chen Han is a scumbag and is of no use at all, and he will be hacked to death by His Majesty sooner or later, isn't he in favor now?

There is no need for us to bother with a dead person at this critical moment."

Chen Han, who was far away in Korea preparing to invade Japan, suddenly sneezed several times.

"Which bastard is cursing me behind my back?"

After listening to the twisted logic of the Left Censor-in-Chief, the lady didn't know what to say. She just felt that this old man was becoming more and more spineless.

"Look at my beard."

"That's it!" said the lady and walked away.

The Left Censor-in-Chief saw the expression on his wife's face in the mirror and laughed: "What do women know?"

……

He was not the only one or two people who thought the same way.

When their carriage left the capital and headed towards Chen Han's mansion on the banks of the Yongding River, they saw each other.

This sight was a bit embarrassing.

Among them are not only those who vowed at the beginning that they would never go along with Chen Han, but also some people who are known for their toughness in the court.

At the beginning, everyone pretended to have listened carefully and appeared in the court like normal people. However, as soon as they turned around, their true colors were exposed.

Everyone felt very uncomfortable after seeing each other.

In particular, the Left Censor-in-Chief wished he could turn the carriage around and go back immediately.

After all, he is the one who cares most about his reputation.

Of course the most important thing is that when he was at Imperial University, he had scolded other people, saying that they were so shameless, but now it was really embarrassing to meet them on the street.

However, the officials behind him seemed to want to embarrass him, and they actually ordered the coachmen to drive their carriages to the four sides of his carriage, surrounding it and preventing him from leaving.

Even Shuntian Prefecture Yin Hai lifted the curtain of the carriage window and said loudly to the Left Censor-in-Chief: "Master Zongxian, weren't you unable to speak before? Didn't you scold us for being spineless? How come you are here now, and have your bones become soft in just over an hour?"

This statement is very damaging.

Even if one could not see it from the window, one could tell that the Zuodu Censor's face was red.

It's like being caught telling a lie.

His face flushed and his whole body felt hot, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.

The Shuntian prefectural governor was still talking: "But there is one thing you are better than us. You played hard to get with us before and almost fooled us. If we hadn't taken your words as fart and knew that you were not a tough guy, we would have been fooled."

The coachman's face turned red when the prefect of Shuntian prefecture said this. It was really embarrassing.

He even whispered in his heart: You are such a grown-up, why are you lying like this? Don't we, your close friends, know who you are?

You are a greedy person who likes to eat and take more.

These words made the Left Censor-in-Chief so embarrassed that his face turned red. He wanted to rush out and tear the mouth of the Shuntian Prefecture Governor who was speaking into pieces.

But now he is too embarrassed to go out.

……

Soon dozens of carriages arrived at Chen Han's residence.

When everyone got off the car, everyone had gifts in their hands.

Perhaps it was because Chen Han had said before when he was dealing with these officials that they were not allowed to park their cars at the gate of the hinterland and could only park them outside. So this time, without the guards of the officers and soldiers, these officials were very honest and parked the carriages on the parking lot on the side.

Then he got off the carriage carrying the gifts.

After seeing what was in each other's hands, everyone sneered at each other, meaning that you shouldn't think of yourself as noble, because these are just things that can be digested.

However, after seeing the gifts in their hands, they all felt that it was really despairing to have life come to this point.

But in this situation, there is no need for anyone to laugh at anyone.

At first they felt very embarrassed.

I thought I was so shameless and felt a little embarrassed, I even looked down on myself. But I didn't expect that we were all in the same boat. So looking at it this way, it seems that I am not so shameless, I seem to be still not bad.

"Haha...it seems like we are all really like-minded. I didn't expect this. I was a little embarrassed at first, but now that I see all my colleagues are like this, I feel much better." The speaker was the governor of Shuntian Prefecture.

This guy's mouth is always so annoying.

Everyone was already very embarrassed. It would have been better if no one said anything, but now that you said it like this, it's really embarrassing.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"

"You are not a good person either, but Lord General, we have never said no, you said so, so we are very curious about what you were thinking at the time. Was it to prevent us from stealing the limelight from you?"

This is even more unpleasant to hear.

The Zuodu Censor's face was not much red now.

It has come to this anyway.

He coughed lightly and went to Chen Han's residence with his gift.

Everyone was walking forward laughing.

Anyway, now we are not embarrassed at all. The one who is embarrassed is that bastard.

After arriving at Chen Han’s residence.

The Jinyiwei guarding the gate of the mansion were also very surprised.

It's really surprising that the Jinyiwei were brought here to serve as guards.

However, seeing that Chen Han had the emperor's trust, they understood.

This is what that bastard is capable of.

Then soon Guo Feixue came out.

Although Guo Feixue complained at the beginning that Chen Han did not give her an important job, she also understood that Chen Han gave her the job of managing the mansion, which showed that he had placed great trust in her.

Even after listening to Sophia's words, she understood that she should be satisfied now...
