The Red Mansions

Chapter 169 Join the job, go to the Lin Mansion
The next day.

Jia Yun put on the unicorn suit and went out early.

In the morning, he went to the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to go through various procedures, and finally came to the Beicheng Xuncheng Yushi Office to start his job.

Jia Yun's real job is to patrol the city and be the censor. As the head of the Ministry of War, he only receives a salary and doesn't care about other affairs.

It means that all aspects of treatment have been raised to him, but the actual job assigned is still the censor of the seventh rank.

However, compared with the county magistrate, the power to patrol the city and the censor is much greater.

Xuncheng Yushi is affiliated to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Responsible for patrolling the security management of the five cities in the east, west, south, north, and middle of the capital, hearing lawsuits, arresting thieves, etc.

There is also a Censor's Office for patrolling the city, which is called "the procuratorate for inspecting the west city", "the procuratorate for inspecting the north city", "the procuratorate for inspecting the south city" and so on.

Each city has a military division, and each division is divided into two squares, which are managed by the five city censors.

In other words, as usual, there are five censors patrolling the city, but now Jia Yun is the only one in charge.

That's why, behind his official position, there is also the post of governor of the governor's capital patrol camp.

Because if it's just a patrolling censor in an area, then it's not the governor, but the admiral.

The difference of one, the rights are very different.

What needs to be said is that the selection and appointment of the censor is very strict.

For the production of each inspector censor, the Metropolitan Procuratorate first selects two candidates, leads them to the emperor, and asks the emperor to appoint one.

The supervisory censor is usually managed by the Central Metropolitan Procuratorate, but it is not controlled by the Metropolitan Procuratorate when performing functions, and is directly responsible to the emperor.

The duty of the inspector censor is to go on tour on behalf of the emperor, "to make decisions on major matters, and to make decisions on small matters", and to inspect places on behalf of the emperor.

Specially responsible for supervision, generally ignoring other affairs, with great power.

They exercise supervisory power on behalf of the emperor, and can "supervise the big with the small" and "supervise the high with the humble".

Due to the extremely high status of power, those who obtained the power to be an official through the imperial examination all tried their best to achieve this official position.

In addition, the inspecting censor has a role that other inspection agencies do not have, and that is to recommend talents.

Anyone who holds this position is someone the emperor can trust, so there must be many people who want to make friends with him, and they are also the targets of various forces competing to win him over.

The reason why Jia Yun got this position was also because of the recommendation of the two governors, Xu Renzhi and Wen Junshou, that she had the opportunity to enter the emperor's sight. It can be seen that there are people in the court who are good officials, and it is not a joke.

Inspect the North City Procuratorate.

The commanders, deputy commanders, governors and other officials of the Wucheng Bingma Division and the Wucheng Patrol Battalion gathered together.

On the first day of work, Jia Yun didn't do anything special. She got to know each other and spoke official Chinese for half an hour before letting everyone go back to work.

At noon, I had dinner at the Yushi's Office. In the afternoon, Jia Yun was reading the files when an officer came in to report that Lin Ruhai had come.

Lin Ruhai was different from Jia Yun. Jia Yun returned to Beijing with a job, but he didn't. He had to wait for the court's arrangement.

As the new emperor's confidant, Lin Ruhai has done such a big job in Jiangnan and copied dozens of families, so he is extremely sensitive about how to arrange his future position.

Therefore, Jia Yun was also very curious about what position Lin Ruhai would take up next.

"You've neglected my lord. I just joined the job today, and I have a lot of thoughts. Don't blame me for not being able to meet my lord in time." Jia Yun cupped her hands and said.

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said, "Zizheng, you don't need to be polite. With our relationship, being too polite would make you feel different."

Jia Yun led him to the guest room of the government office to talk, and after the servant served tea, he asked curiously, "Have you fulfilled your duty?"

"Well, I went to the palace just now, and the emperor deliberately asked me to avoid the limelight, and planned to transfer me to the political and food road in Hubei for a transition." Lin Ruhai smiled while pinching his beard.

Jia Yun cupped her hands happily and said, "Congratulations, my lord!"

The grain road is also called the supervising grain road, also known as the grain storage road. All provinces have this official, and the chief secretary participates in politics and is appointed by the council. He is in charge of grain transportation, supervising grain exchange, supervising and escorting ships, etc., ranking from four ranks, In the provincial capital.

Lin Ruhai's promotion from the seventh-rank inspecting salt censor to the fourth-rank political participation is a proper and rapid promotion.

And what he got was a fat job like Liang Dao, which shows that he is in the heart of the emperor.

Not only that, but according to Lin Ruhai's tone, participating in politics, food and roads is only a transitional position, and if he fails to keep the balance, he will be transferred back to Beijing, and he may be promoted to the third rank and sixth department minister.

For the promotion, Lin Ruhai was naturally happy. After the two exchanged a few words, he told Jia Yun:
"Zizheng, the capital city is very complicated and completely different from other places. You are the censor who patrols the city, so you should think twice before doing anything!"

Although the Xuncheng Censor has great power, there are many people staring at him. He is a position on the cusp of the storm, and he can't keep a low profile if he wants to.

Once you are low-key, you can't do anything.

But if you want to make a difference, in this place of the capital, it will affect your whole body.

All kinds of forces, overt or covert, are intertwined with each other, and they may follow other people's ways.

For this, Jia Yun had already been mentally prepared, and he said gratefully: "Thank you for reminding me, I will pay special attention."

Next, the two made a rough assessment of the situation in the capital, and exchanged information they knew, but the more they talked, the more speculative they became.

Lin Ruhai originally thought that Jia Yun had just entered the officialdom and had not been an official in the capital before, so she was not very familiar with all aspects.

But after talking with Jia Yun, I realized that he had a wide range of sources of information, and was very timely and accurate.

So Lin Ruhai was quite surprised, and at the same time he valued Jia Yun even more.

Thinking of the heartfelt words her daughter said to him last night, Lin Ruhai was a little resistant at first, but slowly began to accept it.

Although it is not outrageous for Lin Daiyu to marry a married man like Jia Yun.

But since Jia Yun is willing to use the method of co-existence, Ming Media is marrying Lin Daiyu into the door, and Lin Daiyu is determined not to marry unless Jia Yun, Lin Ruhai will naturally not do anything to beat the mandarin ducks.

Because of this, after he made up his mind, he said to Jia Yun:
"Some time ago, I made too much noise in the south. After I returned to Beijing, many forces were staring at me. For the sake of my safety, the emperor asked me to leave Beijing to take up my post as soon as possible."

"However, I'm a little worried about Daiyu, so I have to ask Zizheng to take care of her more, and don't let bad people hurt her."

Jia Yun fully agreed: "Your Excellency, feel free to go to the post. Miss Lin, I will definitely not let her suffer any harm."

Lin Ruhai nodded and smiled and said, "I'm very relieved about Zizheng."

"Daiyu also told me about her and you yesterday. You agree with each other. I have no objection. When Daiyu grows up, I will help you both."

Jia Yun was a little embarrassed, but still got up and saluted, "Thank you, sir!"

After the matter was settled, Jia Yun felt relieved, and agreed to go to the Lin Mansion for a banquet at night.

Lin Ruhai knew that Jia Yun was new and busy, so after finishing the business, she stopped bothering her and got up to leave.

After sending Lin Ruhai away, Jia Yun went back to the office and continued to check the files, looking for the breakthrough point for her first shot in the history of patrolling the city.

The new official took office three fires.

Now that I have become the city patrol censor at a young age, many people are staring at how good he is, especially the new emperor. There is also pressure to put him in this important position.

If you don't make achievements, it's not easy to do business.

But Jia Yun couldn't figure it out all afternoon.

When it was time to get off work, he didn't bother with it. He got off work on time, sent someone to deliver a letter home, and then took a carriage to Lin's residence.

On the way, Jia Yun lifted the curtain of the car and saw many beggars and refugees on the street, she couldn't help but feel moved.

A large number of vagrants poured into the capital, becoming an unstable factor that threatened the public security of the capital.

These vagrants are scattered in every corner of the capital, wandering among the streets, and it is difficult to manage them on a large scale.

After all, most of these people came here as refugees. If they want to resettle well, they need the court to allocate a lot of money. However, the court has always been short of money, so it is impossible to spend too much on these refugees.

But these refugees can't ignore it, it's easy to cause trouble.

They are often in groups of thousands, wherever they go, they allow themselves to be trampled, seize money, destroy houses, fight and kill, kill chickens and dogs, and even gather in the mountains and forests to transform into a force against the government.

Therefore, if these refugees can be resettled well, it will be a great political achievement.

"The patrol battalion also has part of the responsibilities of managing homeless people. It's just a matter of finding something for them to do." Jia Yun thought to herself.

As for the soldiers and horses who are responsible for patrolling and arresting thieves in the capital, clearing streets, ditches, prisoners, and fire bans, they cannot be left idle.

Now that the public security in the capital is in chaos, it is time to carry out a period of anti-crime operations and set him on fire for the first time after taking office.

"First strike the grass to scare the snake away, and then find a few hard-headed officials to impeach him, and the official position will be stabilized." Jia Yun pondered in her heart.

The Xuncheng Yushi is just looking for trouble, if it is too quiet, it will be easy to be looked down upon.

At the same time, Jia Yun thought to himself: "By the way, Bing Ma Si and Patrol Battalion are good at scouting news, and we should make good use of this advantage..."

"However, sharpening the knife is not the same as chopping firewood. If you are fighting outside, you must first settle inside. These days, you have to reorganize the soldiers, horses and patrol camps first, and you can also install your own people by the way."

He never forgot what he promised Liu Xianglian, and he could also take advantage of this opportunity to seek some benefits for the clan.

Doing this will not only increase your own influence, strengthen your control over soldiers, horses and patrol battalions, but also win over the clansmen.

Thinking about something, the carriage stopped at the gate of the Lin residence.

The butler of the Lin family brought Jia Yun to the middle courtyard. After Lin Ruhai exchanged pleasantries with Jia Yun, he asked the servant girl to call Lin Daiyu.

Since the day she left Gusu, Jia Yun hadn't been close to Lin Daiyu, and she hadn't even seen her face to face.

Seeing Lin Daiyu again now, Jia Yun was very excited.

Lin Ruhai knew that the two of them had something to say, so he took the initiative to mention it and asked Lin Daiyu to take Jia Yun to play in the garden.

Because of the servant girl following her, even though Jia Yun wanted to get close to Lin Daiyu, she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and could only stare at her with fiery eyes.

in the garden.

Lin Daiyu's heart melted when she saw Jia Yun's gaze.

She whispered: "Don't worry, there is a swing over there, I will let Zijuan stop the maids and women later, let's go and play."

"You're so kind, I'm so hungry for you." Jia Yun said affectionately.

Lin Daiyu blushed, patted him lightly, pursed her lips shyly: "I just washed it..."
