Chapter 61 Prestige
"Eunuch Zou said, your Shuntian Mansion is a dirty place, and this time you left quietly after investigating the case in South Street, making people wonder if there is something tricky inside, so we sent our family over to ask Ask and see."

When he was in the delicious restaurant, this low-rank official known as "Xiao Cai" was respectful and silent, but when he arrived in the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, he immediately put on airs.

The eunuch who was asking the question was of no rank or rank, Fu Cheng was a real fourth rank, but at this moment Chen Zhizhong was breaking out in cold sweat.

The dark and skinny little eunuch in front of him is nothing, but the internal supervisor, Zuo Shaojian, Zou Yi, is already a powerful figure in the palace. He suddenly came to Shuntian Mansion and said such heavy words, what happened? Something happened?

South Street?Investigate the case?Completely confused, Chen Zhizhong now regrets that he drank too much, his mind is numb, and he can't turn around, but the instinct of the officialdom for many years is still there, standing up and smiling at Xiao Cai, while turning his head and shouting at the guards road:

"Hurry up and call Lu Wancai here!!"

The guard froze for a moment, and said in a low voice:
"Fu Zun, Lu Tui is resting at home today, not in the yamen."

At this moment, all the majesty of the Fu Cheng was thrown aside. Chen Zhizhong grabbed the jug on the table and threw it at it, shouting:

"Hurry up and find him, if he doesn't come within a stick of incense, you and his errands don't even want to do it!!"

After losing his temper, he turned around, the anger on his face immediately turned into a polite smile, he hurriedly greeted his servants to serve tea, and at the same time, he was wondering whether this Zou Yi, Eunuch Zou, was under the control of the big man in the palace, if he didn't keep it all What kind of big case happened in the relationship between Eunuch Feng, which actually caused a stir.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in a blue official uniform ran over in a hurry, his face was covered with sweat in the cold weather, he entered the second hall and saw the eunuch in green robe and Chen Zhizhong who was humiliating, he was stunned at first I was stunned, and then without even wiping off my sweat, I clasped my fists and asked:

"Master Fucheng, what is the purpose of calling your subordinates here?"

"Lv Wancai, let me ask you, someone from your side sent to South Street to investigate the case today, and came back without saying anything after the investigation, what did you do to push the official!!"

The officials in Shuntian Mansion are promoted from the sixth grade, and they are in charge of punishment. Lu Wancai, the official who was promoted, was stunned when he heard this question, thinking that the police officers who go to investigate the case on weekdays never tell others about the case, so why is this wrong? But he has been working as an errand for so many years, of course he knows what to do, he quickly bowed and said flatly:
"My lord, wait for a moment, and the next official will go to the sixth room to ask."

The imperial court has six ministries, and the local yamen also has six chambers, each performing its duties. Chen Zhizhong ran out as soon as he turned around...

It would take about half an hour from the Delicious Restaurant to Shuntian Mansion even if they walked back and forth, Zou Yi and Wang Tong didn't just sit and wait.

First, they went to Widow Ma's house together. Despite his high status, Zou Yi didn't put on any airs. He treated Widow Ma with a completely junior attitude, and greeted and chatted politely.

Zhao Jinliang woke up once after Wang Tong left, crying again and again, but then fell asleep and did not wake up, probably tired from crying.

"That kid always yells at Mother not to kill him..."

Widow Ma's words made the matter even more confusing. Wang Tong arranged for Ma Sanbiao to stay, and went to the construction site behind the delicious restaurant with Zou Yi.

Many men in earth-colored short skirts were busy there. They should be the construction workers of this era. The car pulled out the cleaned up dirt and bricks and tiles.

Some people were spreading quicklime in various yards, and a large area of ​​houses in the direction of the Delicious Restaurant had been bulldozed. Some people were beating the walls with big wooden hammers, and many people were pulling down those walls with ropes.

There were dismantling, disinfection, and tidying. Wang Tong looked at it with interest. Although ancient things and modern things are different, they are still the same.

However, at this construction site, the smell and movement are not very pleasant. Wang Tong can see that an open space has been cleared in advance between this side and the two rows of houses in the Delicious Pavilion, so as not to affect his side.

Wang Tong also sighed for a while, he also belongs to the privileged class now...

Zou Yi obviously didn't like this construction site very much. As soon as he appeared, two men in green robes responded, nodding and bowing their heads, talking with apologetic smiles, and reporting the progress of the construction site. Zou Yi covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief while nodding indifferently.

Not long after, he dragged Wang Tong back, and when he reached the open space, he took a deep breath and said with a smile:

"I've been staying in a clean place inside and outside the palace for a long time, and I really can't stand this place, but it's also a chance that this job falls on our family, and it's very beneficial to do it."

After speaking, he took the veil and wiped it on his body a few times, then threw it aside casually, and said with a smile:

"Brother Wang, I remember what Brother Wang said. This project has been done, but not a cent of oil and water has been left behind. They are all subsidized by them. Now the craftsmen who are busy here have a meal of meat and rice noodles every day. In the evening, there is also shochu. It is said that many craftsmen in the city and outside the city have passed the year, and they want to come here to ask for an errand... Fortunately, the construction period is fixed, otherwise these people might delay it for such a good day! "

The two sides walked back laughing and joking. Wang Tong didn't realize it until he was about to enter the delicious restaurant. Zou Yi said that these things were for him to tell Emperor Wanli when he had a chance. As expected, I know too little about it.

I walked around the construction site, but when I came back, I saw the little eunuch "Xiao Cai" who went to Shuntian Mansion and three people waiting in front of the delicious restaurant.

An official wearing a blue robe with bruises was leading two arresters behind him. They were the two who came over in the morning. I suffered a lot.

Both Wang Tong and Zou Yi were dressed in casual clothes. When they came over, the officials and policemen ignored them. It wasn't until Xiao Cai bowed to meet them that they came forward with a smile.

The head of the official in the blue robe with the blue pattern was almost stuck to his knees, and he said with an extremely humble smile:

"This must be Eunuch Zou. The villain is Lv Wancai, the Tutor of Shuntian Mansion. He has met Eunuch."

After paying a big gift, he turned around and slapped each of the two policemen, and said again:
"It's these two bastards who don't understand the rules. They ruined the reputation of our Shuntian Mansion outside and delayed the great affairs of the father-in-law. Wang Si and Li Gui, you still don't kowtow to the father-in-law to apologize!!"
