As a central center, Taicheng generally maintains a curfew, but there are special circumstances, such as major celebrations, or occasional gatherings initiated by high-ranking Taifu.

Shen Zhezi naturally can't talk about a high position, but his popularity is good. As the various official offices ended their official duties for the day one after another, then some people arrived at the Dongcao official offices one after another.

Ji You and the others, who had already met in the Taiwan Pavilion earlier, came together again, and when they saw Shen Zhezi's official style, they all had strange expressions on their faces.

"I've always known that Wei Zhou is different everywhere you go. But can get such a good stable in Taichung, is it too exaggerated! ”

Ji You went around inside and outside for a week, and there was no lack of envy between his words, he had been an official in Taichung for a long time, even if he had moved into the new official office at the beginning of the month, but the place where he lived was still inevitably cramped, and Shen Zhezi could not be compared with him here.

"Yes, the horses have to be good in their daily life and appointment, which is really enviable."

Another person with emotion is Xie Shang, compared to Ji You, he is undoubtedly more qualified to sigh. Because his current official position is that of the Western Cao, the Eastern and Western Cao have always been two parallel departments under the public government, but one is external and the other is internal.

However, Xie Shang's Xicao official office was not so lucky, it was located in the east of Taicheng, almost close to Tongyuan, and it was not even their turn to schedule repairs. Now they all live in the old government office with dilapidated porches and crumbling beams.

Xie Shang, as the second-in-command of Xicao, has repeatedly asked Changshi and even Yousi in Taiwan to pay attention to their office environment and living environment. However, Changshi's main service object is the CPIC, and he can't help but be a little slack about the following demands. And Yousi has a lot of prevarication, but he said that the new agency is really lacking, so that they can understand the difficulties.

The promotion of officials in charge of Xicao's government was originally a powerful department, but because it was only for the internal government of the government, it inevitably lacked much influence in the entire Taiwan. But even if it can't be compared with Dong Cao in terms of position and power, such a huge difference in treatment is really embarrassing.

Shen Zhezi couldn't help but laugh when he heard their emotion. Originally, he thought that although this official office was not bad, it was only a good place, but when he saw Ji You and Xie Shang's faces full of envy and jealousy, a sense of superiority arose. It can be seen that there is never a good or bad standard for life experiences, and the high and low are all compared.

Zhang Jian, as Shen Zhezi's deputy, is busy and responsible, and welcomes every visitor with a smile, and there is no need for Shen Zhezi to be distracted by entertainment. The appearance of the appropriate response does not show the arrogance of the old surname Wangzong of China and the Qing Dynasty and the unfamiliarity of the Qing family for personnel and entertainment.

It was getting late and late, and there were more and more officials present, and the originally spacious government office gradually became a little cramped. After all, the so-called spaciousness is only relatively speaking, and it is not enough to compare with the large estates that often occupy an area of several hectares or even more than ten hectares outside. There were nearly 100 people present, and it already gave people a sense of crowding with nowhere to place.

Although Zhang Jian was also busy running around for placement, but the conditions were limited, he couldn't change a larger space, seeing that there were still people outside the official office one after another, his face gradually showed bitterness, and he couldn't help but sigh that the appeal of the horse in Taichung was still underestimated.

Not long after, another young man in a fox fur arrived under the guidance of the servants, Zhang Jian hurriedly greeted him, and when he walked in, he recognized that it was Wang Huzhi. Wang Peng, please wait, and the horses will come to greet him immediately. ”

Wang Huzhi stood at the door and was not in a hurry to enter, seeing some noisy scenes in the court, there was a bit of unnatural expression on his face, and when he saw Zhang Jian's busy forehead sweat looming, he said with a smile: "Brother Ming Zhao was originally a Qing man, but he had to reluctantly take on the chores, and he really had to work hard for you." Taibao also said that after the abolition of Dongcao, the new creation also needs to be taken by a Qingzhi high-minded and old man like Brother Ming Zhao, so that things can be put on track as soon as possible. Brother Ming Zhao is also a capable person who works hard, and Brother Ming Zhao must also be considerate. ”

After Zhang Jian heard this, the smile on his face froze slightly, and then he said with a smile: "I am flattered by the reputation of cultivating age. Dongcao is now back in camp, and Taibao is the director of the horse, which can be regarded as employing people according to the amount of talent. I am also a food and a worker, how dare I boast of working hard. ”

While he was talking, Shen Zhezi had already hurried from the rear, and said to Wang Huzhi from a distance: "Brother Xiu Ling can come here at night to gather together, I am really honored. ”

Wang Hu Zhiben was a little embarrassed by Zhang Jian's words, and after hearing Shen Zhezi's words, he turned his gaze away, and said with a forced smile: "I'm going to disappoint the horse, I am also in business at the moment, and I can't stay for a long time, so I can only use it here." Another thing is that Taibao has a saying, there are many old acquaintances in Taiwan, and there is no need to rush to affairs, but there is no need to rush affairs, and colleagues should be properly connected, and they will be more widely assisted and more calm in the future. If the office cannot be opened, you may wish to move it to the small pine pavilion in the house, which is reserved for the horses these days. ”

After Wang Huzhi said this, he politely said goodbye and left. Shen Zhezi stood at the door of the official office, looking at Wang Huzhi's back gradually disappearing into the night.

"Horses, there are indeed too many guests, and the department is no longer usable, do you want to make another arrangement?"

Zhang Jian stood aside and asked.

After hearing this, Shen Zhezi nodded and said, "Since the Taibao has already given instructions, then inform the princes in the court to move to the Little Pine Pavilion." ”

When Zhang Jian heard this, he turned his head to arrange the arrangement, and then another person next to him came over and recounted the reply between Wang Huzhi and Zhang Jian just now. Shen Zhezi was happy when he heard this, Wang Huzhi said this, it was clear that he was provoking Zhang Jian to fight for power with himself in the department, but Zhang Jian's response was not lacking in reason.

This point is not enough to say that Wang Huzhi is vainly moving the villain's liver and sausage, but it can give people a clear impression that the second generation of the Wang family is really not good. Neither did the Taibao have the overall situation and inclusive skills and mind, nor did they have the unrivaled military strength of Wang Dun in the early years, and they gradually had a tendency to lose control of the development of the situation.

Of course, this is not enough for the Wang family to fall from the high gate sequence in an instant, but it is impossible to stand firmly in the center of the situation like the first generation of Nandu. And history has also proved that even without Shen Zhezi's participation, they will eventually be marginalized by their successors.

Shen Zhezi doesn't mind Wang Huzhi giving his subordinates eye medicine, the current time is undoubtedly on his side, even if he doesn't do anything anymore, as long as he waits for Wang Dao to die with peace of mind, he will gradually ascend to the throne, and when he takes charge of the center in the future, the Wang family will no longer be troubled.

Although this rhythm is stable, it is too slow for Shen Zhezi, a small river is not enough to completely block the north and south, making Jiangdong a paradise isolated from the world, if you want to really ride the waves in this era, you must forge ahead. Jiangdong is limited by geography and lacks heritage, and the focus of this era is still the changes in the situation in the Central Plains.

Therefore, knowing that the current situation is already very good, Shen Zhezi is not satisfied with this, he needs to fight for a more advantageous position in the past few years before the situation in the Central Plains has changed greatly, so that he can join the competition of the Central Plains Dingye with more confidence.

Not long after, all the guests in the Dongcao Official Office came out again, and transferred to the Xiaosong Pavilion used to meet guests in the Taibao Official Office not far away. The high-ranking officials of Taichung also have special places for meeting guests in Taichung, although this Xiaosong Pavilion has a small name, but the scale is even much larger than Shen Zhezi's Dongcao official office.

The distribution ratio of spatial locations in Taicheng is quite consistent with the political environment. Although the number of high-ranking officials in Taiwan is small, they occupy nearly half of the space in the entire Taiwan city, and their authority is also extremely difficult for these lower-level officials to provoke.

Shen Zhezi's induction banquet was quite quiet, and even the Protector Mansion specially sent guards to open up several special passages for guests to come and go.

With the arrival of more guests one after another, there were more than 200 guests present at the banquet in the end, accounting for almost half of the quota of Taichen. The presence of so many people is not entirely inflammatory, but indeed there are indeed negotiations for future ministry. As Director Wang said, if you can maintain harmony in human relations, then it will be much more convenient in political affairs, at least you can avoid many unnecessary constraints and constraints.

Putting aside Shen Zhezi's own identity and fame, although the scope of his ministry is only in terms of personnel, he is a member of the two thousand stones inside and outside, so the involvement is also very large, and his influence is by no means small. In addition to the young people, many high-ranking officials of Jiuqing did not come in person, but they also sent people to say hello.

In the past, it was just that there was no Dong Cao Peng, but now that there is one, and the chief officer is not a weak person, if those two thousand stone masters want to make a move in the future, they can't ignore the role played by Dong Cao Peng here.

Director Wang was willing to arrange Shen Zhezi in this position, which is enough to see that he is not a narrow-minded person. In the past, it was impossible to grant such a position to people as a starting official, but Shen Zhezi's old honor was too high, even many high-ranking people who had been officials for many years were difficult to compare, so it was really difficult to follow the routine arrangement of how to start, so he could only be used as an exception.

However, this is not enough to make Shen Zhezi grateful to Director Wang, after all, the current situation is already different from the past, and the Wang family is no longer a monopoly, and it is impossible to block all his roads.

In this banquet, because the participants are all Taichen, the topic will not be limited to the wind and snow. Therefore, at the banquet, Shen Zhezi also recognized the officials of many departments such as Taichang, Guanglu, and the Ministry of Officials who had contact with them in government affairs in the future, and they would have to deal with each other often in the future.

After all, it is in the center of Taicheng, although the banquet atmosphere is good, but it is not good to celebrate all night, which is too unofficial. Therefore, when the time came, everyone took their leave.

Although Shen Zhezi only drank lightly, because he was the protagonist of the banquet, he was a little too strong to drink in the end, and the matter of giving gifts to the guests could only be handed over to Zhang Jian and other subordinate officials to do, and he himself went back to the official office to rest first.

Although he has officially taken office in Taicheng, Shen Zhezi still has a buffer period of a few days. I got up early the next morning, changed into a new official robe sent by Yousi, and went to the Taibao official office to listen to the teachings, and by the way I visited the officials.

When Shen Zhezi arrived, most of the subordinate officials of the Taibao Mansion had already arrived, which made him a little embarrassed, and he was late on the first day of employment, so after entering the room, he first said to Changshi Meitao, who was seated at the top: "The new performance under the post, Meng Lang has not been restrained for a while, and where the rules are exceeded, I am waiting for the Changshi to be held accountable." ”

Mei Tao, as the chief housekeeper of the mansion, although he did not show up or send anyone to congratulate him, naturally knew that such an upstart had come to the mansion. After he heard this, his demeanor was calm, and he just said to Shen Zhezi: "We and other members of the public government usually have to go to the mansion at midnight to prepare for inquiries. Shen Peng didn't come late, so he didn't have to blame himself, and sat down first. If the Taibao has any inquiries, they will be summoned later, and if they do not, they can be returned to the office after the hour. ”

After Shen Zhezi thanked him again, he then switched to the vacant seat at the end, but before he could sit down, he heard someone say: "Shen Pengxin entered the stage, and he has already been a hundred people, and there has been no such noise in the stage for a long time. ”

Hearing this slightly sneering words, Shen Zhezi followed the prestige, and saw a middle-aged and long-haired man looking at him with a sneering face, and after a little thought, he remembered that this person's name was Yin Rong, and he was Yin Hao's uncle.

Shen Zhezi didn't know the reason for his malice, but after hearing this, he just laughed and said: "Eat in the rich year, make clothes in the cold, this is also the reason of the world." The old waves have not decayed, and the back waves have risen, and they are at the end of the line, and they are fortunate to be in the front. Yin Jun may want to be quiet, so why complain about the world, if he is really afraid, why not avoid the table. ”

When Yin Rong heard Shen Zhezi say this, his face changed slightly, and then he snorted coldly: "The new sprouts sprout in the winter, and the thin waves rise at the bottom of the abyss. ”

Shen Zhezi was a newcomer, but there was no need to go toe-for-tat with others, he just smiled after hearing this, didn't say anything more, and sat in the vacant seat next to Xie Shang.

Looking at the comforting eyes handed over by Xie Shang, he just smiled and stretched out his finger and pressed a cross on the table in front of him, he didn't know why he offended Yin Rong, but he understood that this old boy had offended himself, as long as he reigned for one day, this old boy would not want to get out of the mansion and get two thousand stones in his hands!

Although he can't directly obstruct the other party's career, as long as there are two thousand stone alternatives, he can always find a few stronger competitors for him, and give him a hell mode. From now on, he will be the winter and the abyss of this old boy!

The first day in office was boring. After waiting for more than half an hour in the Taibao Mansion, Shen Zhezi saw Wang Dao, and he didn't talk about any official business, Wang Dao just gave him a warrant, asking him to take this to visit the chief officials of the palaces and temples, continue to mix people, and by the way, go to copy the names and valves of officials at all levels recorded by the Ministry of Officials, and keep them for reference in the future office selection.
