After Liu Ji left the lobby, he went directly back to the signing room.

He has become the new master of the Shuncheon Mansion, and this will be the place where he will give command. Standing in the outer room with his hands in his hands, he looked towards the inner hall, and saw a couplet on both sides: "If you are wide, the people will receive more money, and if you take a penny, the official is not worth a penny."

This is undoubtedly a couplet between the predecessor and his subordinates, so that everyone can treat the people leniently and maintain their noble official integrity. It's just that these nice words, like this beautiful wooden plaque, are usually just used to decorate the façade.

In the current Ming Dynasty, children from poor families should be greedy, and children from rich families should also be greedy. It's not that there are no real clean officials, I'm afraid I have to look for them among those officials.

A scribe followed behind, watched Huang Zhongwang examine the couplet, and immediately said flatteringly: "Lord Fu Yin, I'll take it off!" ”。 This new official doesn't like the old official's objects, and it has long been the norm in officialdom.

"It's well written, but it doesn't hurt to stay!" Liu Ji waved his hand and walked inside.

When the new official took office, none of the scribes in the six rooms below dared to touch Liu Ji's moldy head, and they all seemed to be in order. They took advantage of the opportunity of official business to brush their faces in front of the newly appointed Lord Yin here.

Liu Ji is a person who has been a county magistrate, and he knows what official affairs are important and what official affairs can be put aside for the time being. And from many matters, he immediately grasped the most important thing - presiding over the hospital examination.

Why does everyone want to go out to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to be officials, but not to go to Yunnan, Guizhou and other places. This is one reason for the wealth and poverty, or is it that the rich land is usually prosperous, and it is inevitable that there will be a few proud protégés.

Shuntianfu is located in the capital, and the scholars here are highly qualified, and most of them were born in the families of eunuchs. Once he has the name of a teacher and student, it will be of great benefit to his reputation in the capital, and can even help him reach a higher level.

Near noon, a guest came to visit.

Xu Fan, who was in a crimson official uniform, appeared in the signing room, and when he came in, he congratulated Liu Ji and said: "Brother Yuquan (Liu Ji's number), congratulations!" ”

When he followed Liu Ji to rebuild the Wanshou Palace, he worked together for a period of time, and then the two were successively promoted to Taichang Temple as Shaoqing, and they had already established a little friendship.

"Brother Yunyan, if you miss the distance, forgive your sins and forgive your sins, please take a seat!" Liu Ji hurriedly stood up from the desk, and stepped forward to invite him to sit down at the tea table with enthusiasm.

His age is a circle older than Xu Fan, and now he is already the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, but he has no intention of holding it up. Xu Fan's talent is mediocre, and he is an official who has entered the ranks with official cuteness, but he can't stand up to having a second-assistant father.

The reason why Liu Yi was able to achieve "two consecutive jumps" and sit in the position of Shuntianfu Yin was due to Xu Jie's recommendation, and he naturally had to continue to be good friends with Xu Fan at the moment.

Xu Fan was an ambitious person, but he took a look at the signing room enviously, took the tea from the housekeeper, and asked excitedly: "Brother Yuquan, I heard that you took away that kid's security rights?" ”

"It's just a job transfer for him!" Liu Ji picked up the teacup, as if it was an insignificant matter.

Xu Fan got confirmation from his mouth, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he immediately gave a thumbs up and praised: "Hehe...... Well done! ”

If it was said that in the past, it was mainly jealous of Lin Haoran's high position at a young age and his promising future, but since Lin Haoran wanted to punish him for having a house slave He Jiu, the two sides have been completely hostile.

Of course, since he wanted to seek the interests of Guangdong, this kind of relationship between the two sides has also been doomed.

Liu Yi took a sip of tea, and a sense of pride surged in his heart.

Although Lin Haoran is a model for the world's scholars, he is also the most dazzling officialdom star of the Ming Dynasty. It's just that he is the Shuntian Mansion Yin at the moment, and he only needs to use some more means to be able to isolate this kid step by step, what is to kick him out of the Shuntian Mansion.

Xu Fan looked at the unfathomable Liu Ji, and asked hopefully: "Brother Yuquan, the "Shuntian Daily" that kid is in charge of is the most important thing, when will you take it over?" ”

"Shuntian Daily" has become the most influential newspaper today, and it can even influence public opinion in the capital, and it has become something that Xu Fan wants to seize, and it is firmly in his hands.

This is not entirely Xu Fan's idea, but also Xu Jie's intention to control "Shuntian Daily".

"I'm afraid this matter has to be discussed in the long run!" Liu Yi shook his head gently, knowing that he couldn't force Lin Haoran too hard, but when he looked up at Xu Fan's disappointed expression, he made a guarantee and said: "Brother Yunyan, you and Xu Ge can rest assured, within a month, I will inevitably seize the power of editor-in-chief of "Shuntian Daily". ”

Liu Ji, who was born in the Supervision Yuan, can naturally see the value of "Shuntian Daily", not to mention that Xu Jie's side is staring, Gao Yao's side also has high hopes for this matter.

However, he has just been in charge of the Shuntian Mansion now, and Lin Haoran has the name of Wenkui, so there is no suitable excuse to borrow it for the time being. But he believes that in less than a month, he will definitely be able to control the Shuntian Mansion and completely isolate Lin Haoran.

If it was at that time, Lin Haoran would naturally let him handle it and take the power of editor-in-chief of "Shuntian Daily", which would naturally be a effortless matter.

"Brother Yuquan, then I'm waiting for your good news!" Xu Fan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he arched his hand excitedly.

Liu Ji took another sip of bitter tea and nodded confidently.

After chatting about Lin Haoran, Xu Fan took the initiative to talk about the two cases involving the Xu family.

Xu Yuanwai's identity forgery case, as well as He Jiu's murder case, have been accepted by the Shuntian Mansion, and they have attracted widespread attention from the scholars in the capital, so it is naturally impossible to erase them.

Whether it is Xu Yuanwai's identity forgery case or He Jiu's murder case, these two cases need to come to an end and give a more reasonable explanation to the people of the world.

The former is easy to solve, Xu Erfa has a complete identity information, as long as the responsibility of "recognizing the wrong person" is directly deducted from Lin Haoran's head.

As for the latter, the Xu Mansion already has a countermeasure. He Jiu will be brought to justice, but not as a slave of the Xu family, but as a bully in Huating County, which has nothing to do with the Xu family.

Liu Ji was originally recommended by Xu Jie, and he wanted to continue to climb the big tree of Xu Jie, so he naturally agreed to these things.

Xu Fan looked at Liu Yi agreeing, and looked very happy in his heart, so he toasted Liu Yi with tea instead of wine.

It was at this moment that a group of people suddenly walked in. Liu Ji, who was holding a teacup, immediately pulled down his face and wanted to scold, but when he looked over, he saw Gonggong Chen's visit, and the whole person couldn't help but be stunned.
