Crazy! Crazy batch of chief ministers reduced to subordinates

It was still dark, and there was no glow in the east.

Ren Yuanzhi took two hasty bites of Wen He's breakfast, biting half a piece of cake in his mouth, and then asked someone to lead his horse and cart, and prepared to go to the Ministry of Justice's Affairs Office to order mao.

But as soon as the door of the courtyard was opened, a familiar carriage was seen parked at the door.

The people in the car were looking at him with the curtains lifted, with a bright and beautiful face, a young age but a calm expression, and a sharpness in his bright eyes that was difficult to detect.

Ren Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment, then walked over, bowed and saluted: "I've met the second girl."

Beisheng said: "I know Master Ren is in a hurry to go to Dianmao. We have something to talk about in the car."

Ren Yuanzhi's scalp felt numb. He knew why Miss Xu Er was looking for him, but he didn't dare to have the courage to get into the car of a boudoir girl.

Jing Fan had already put down the footrest, raised the car curtain, and was waiting for Ren Yuan to get on.

Ren Yuanzhi looked around and saw that apart from the coachman, there was only a male servant and a maidservant following Miss Xu Er. He would not dare to give him ten lives.

He then said, "If you two girls are not in a hurry, please wait until I come to see you in person at the Duke's Mansion later. If you are in a hurry, I will go with the girl's carriage. We can also talk through the window."

Bei Sheng blinked and said: "Of course I am in a hurry. If I were not in a hurry, I would not come to wait for Mr. Ren before dawn. It is not impossible to talk through the window, but I am afraid that some words will be heard by others and may be harmful to Mr. Ren. Reputation is damaged.”

It was like a cold wind blowing through, and Ren Yuanzhi's heart skipped a beat.

It was an early autumn day, and it was not that cold in the middle of the capital. Ren Yuanzhi was only wearing the official uniform of the Ministry of Justice when he went out.

At this time, the wheel cover was full of chills.

He lowered his head and hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly got into Beisheng's carriage, feeling as if he had entered hell.

Without stopping any longer, the carriage quickly drove towards the alley.

Ren Yuanzhi sat by the door, his hands resting on his lap, and he took the initiative: "I have wanted to report the matter of Plum Blossom Pavilion to the girl for a long time, but she has not been in contact since she left Beijing. If you need me, I will The files were transferred from the Criminal Department for the girl to review."

Bei Sheng looked at him and smiled slowly, "That's not necessary. I have to thank Mr. Ren for venting this bad breath on me. I just arrived in Beijing yesterday evening, and I came in a hurry today, so I didn't bring any thanks. Li, the jewelry at Yu Linglong Pavilion in Beijie Alley is pretty good, let Madam Wen pick out a few pieces that she likes and put them in my account."

Ren Yuanzhi straightened his posture and said hurriedly: "How dare we accept the girl's thanks? This is to serve the country and eliminate harm for the country and the people. It is the first contribution I made in the Department of Affairs under the guidance of the girl. It should be I am the one thanking the girl."

Speaking of this great achievement, Ren Yuanzhi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Although this case was handled out of bounds, I still appreciate it.

The reward from above will have to wait until the end of the year, but rumors have spread that with such merit, he can at least get the position of head of the Criminal Department, which is the sixth rank.

The smooth progress in the future is also visible.

Beisheng lowered his eyes, rubbed his clasped hands for a while, and then said: "I came to you for another thing. The palace selects a concubine for the prince and wants to reward her as a noble girl. Boss Yan from Erya Hall came from Suzhou and Shuzhong I ordered a batch of Su embroidery and Shu brocade, but your people snatched some of them on the way."

Ren Yuanzhi's pupils shrank, and he knew Beisheng was looking for him for this matter. He received the urgent letter from eight hundred miles ago. He thought about it for a while and thought that it was just a small businessman who wanted to make money by using the palace to select the crown princess.

So he didn't take it seriously, but because of Xu Beisheng's face, he sent someone to negotiate with Yan Mo for a while, intending to fool him, but he didn't expect that Xu Beisheng would come to the door in person.

Bei Sheng continued: "This is a supply for the palace. Boss Yan can't pay it in. His hair is turning gray from worry. He doesn't have enough time to purchase goods from two places. He knows that Lord Ren and I have some connections, so he asked for When you come to me, please take this matter seriously and help Boss Yan get the things back."

Ren Yuanzhi frowned in worry, sighed deeply, and said: "It turns out that my subordinates are ignorant, and I don't know about this problem. I thought that the brothers worked hard and usually didn't have much money, so I took advantage of the chaos." It’s no big deal if you give me some gifts.”

"Ever since I received the girl's letter, I knew the situation was serious, so I asked them to return all the things, but they had used all the things and some of them were damaged. My people suggested to Boss Yan that they should pay him back in silver, but Boss Yan No consent.”

Bei Sheng chuckled and said: "You are only willing to pay one hundred and fifty taels for goods worth five thousand taels, and even a three-year-old child will not agree."

Ren Yuanzhi's face darkened, and after a moment of silence, he still said: "Since the girl has acted as the middleman in this matter, please give us some advice. Five thousand taels of silver can't be taken out even if all our brothers' wealth is wiped out." .”

Bei Sheng raised the curtains and looked outside. This place was not far from the Secretary's Office. He turned around and said calmly:

"Aren't you paying for it? If you can't get the goods you want, what else can I think of? Anyway, I have already received the message, and the items are for the Crown Prince to choose his concubine. If Boss Yan can't hand over the rest of the goods when they arrive, he will If this matter is pushed forward, Master Ren's future may come to an end."

Ren Yuanzhi's hair stood on end, his eyes fixed on Bei Sheng, his heart filled with coldness.

He indulged in a moment of indulgence and never thought that he would cause such a big disaster!

Bei Sheng also looked at him, his expression became a little darker, he endured it for a while, and then said: "My lord, today is hard-earned. If you can show your skills in the Criminal Department, your future will be promising, but if you can't restrain your subordinates, be careful." A small loss makes a big loss!”

Ren Yuanzhi said nothing. He knew that Xu Beisheng had no intention of harming him, and what he said came from the bottom of his heart. However, he felt cold and trembling all over, as if he had been stripped naked and paraded in the street.

Already approaching the Criminal Department Yamen, Bei Sheng knocked on the car wall and said outside: "Stop the car!"

The coachman shouted, and the carriage came to an abrupt stop.

She turned to look at Ren Yuanzhi, "If you go any further, it's not good for you to be seen. You can get off here."

Jing Fan put down the footstool, Ren Yuan got off the carriage and stood there watching the carriage drive away.

His pupils shrank, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He just stared blankly until the carriage was no longer visible, then he turned around and entered the Penal Department Yamen.

His subordinates had prepared tea for him, and Ren Yuanzhi crossed his legs and took a sip before squirting it on the ground.

There was a crackling sound!

The tea bowl fell to the ground and broke into pieces, making colleagues in the same room tremble with fear.

The subordinates stared blankly at Ren Yuanzhi, who had an angry look on his face, and wanted to ask Lord Ren if today's tea did not suit his taste. However, since there were other people in the room, they hurriedly lowered their eyes, turned to the corner to get a broom, and came. Clean up the mess on the ground.

Ren Yuanzhi didn't wait for the man to finish cleaning, wiped his body and walked over, saying in a low voice: "Come with me!"

The men hurriedly cleaned up, threw the broom and dustpan into the corner, and chased him out the door.

When they reached a quiet place around the corner, Ren Yuanzhi turned around and gave the person behind him a crisp slap!
