Chapter 245

In this way, the Luo family completely offended the Liu family.

For a small official who just entered Beijing, in less than a few years, he successively offended the most powerful officials of the household department and the official department in the court to death, which can be regarded as a skill.Soon, Luo Baisu found himself at ease again.Originally, he worked hard at compiling books in the Books Bureau. Although he was a leisurely yamen, he still had something to do, and he was taken care of by Mr. Zuo of the Ministry of Rites.Since his ban was over, he has done a good job in the yamen. In the past few days, Shangfeng suddenly said that he wanted to streamline the yamen. The Authors Bureau is here.I don’t know how long it has been since the Shangke Chunwei Palace Examination, but those who have some ability and get favored in the palace examination, or those who have some prospects in their families, have already been assigned official positions and qualifications, and most of the rest are unwilling and hopeless. The background is just a matter of luck.

Although there are many officials, large and small, in Shangjing, they all have a purpose, one radish and one hole, if someone wants to fill in, it means someone has to get out.Luo Baisu is Zhuo Zhuo Lang, and he can be regarded as a figure in the Zhu Zhuo Bureau. If someone says that someone is trying to force someone in, it's not his turn to worry.But that Shangfeng was friendly with a group of colleagues on weekdays, seeing Luo Baisu being honest, he kindly reminded him a few words.It didn't matter to him originally, but the person who filled in this time has such a close relationship with the Liu family. To put it bluntly, because the Luo family doesn't give his family face, this is trying to give Luo Baisu Add blockage.

Fortunately, the Luo family now has some understanding of the ups and downs of the officialdom, and it can be regarded as having experienced some ups and downs. They are no longer as anxious as they used to be when there is a slight disturbance, but now they can see it clearly, so they can do whatever they want , If it really doesn't work, I still go home to farm.

This matter went on for a few days, and finally a newcomer was added to the Book Bureau. So many colleagues in the Book Bureau were fine, and in the end, Luo Baisu was sent back to the official department to wait for reassignment.

What do you call this?After all, Luo Baisu was the head of the Book Bureau, and he worked hard in the yamen on weekdays, and he didn't dare to mess around at all. How could the simplification of the yamen be reduced to him?He retreated to the official department, and the official department was controlled by the Liu family. Luo Tian felt that his father would probably have to wait for his life in the official department for the rest of his life. Unless the Liu family also lost like the Lu family back then, there would be no more possibility of recovery.Although Zuo Qingzhi sent Xiao Huzi to ask Luo Baisu to wait patiently and not to be in a hurry, but it was related to Luo Baisu's future future, so there was no need to be in a hurry.

However, like Luo Baisu, there is Qi Jin who is waiting for the selection of officials.Originally, Qi Jinba went to the Hua family, left the relationship with the Liu family, and chose a rich and prosperous small county as a magistrate early, but before his order came down, something happened to the Hua family.

With the conclusion of the Jiangnan granary case, hundreds of officials, large and small, were involved, and many positions were vacated. Without the support of the Hua family, he also had a bad reputation in Beijing because of this incident, and almost no one was willing to speak of him.People recruit juniors for the purpose of cultivating cronies, who wants to support such an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.

Luo Baisu was better, at least he had an official status, and he didn't make too many mistakes, Zuo Qingzhi was in the court to help him, no matter how poor Wei Que was, he could still say a few words, although it was a bit annoying, Even if the Liu family wants to move him without a good name, in the end they have to give him a good or bad pit, a mud pit, and a place to squat. Qi Jin is hard to say. , but not selected.

Luo Tian felt a little more at ease.She is also a little narrow-minded, her father was bullied by others in his official career, if someone like Qi Jin can still make up a high-ranking official or something, then this world is really unfair.

Liu Er has quieted down quite a bit these days, and no one came to the Liu family anymore.

Luo Tian was still not at ease, so he secretly inquired about it, and asked Wei Que again, knowing that the Liu family is also a bit overwhelmed.Their family was originally from a famous family. Liu Shilang has been in the official department for a lifetime. Needless to say, his connections are everywhere. To put it mildly, more than [-]% of the officials in Daqing are related to the Liu family. .

The Jiangnan granary case was originally a struggle between the two princes in the capital, but I don’t know how many court officials were involved in it, and many of the former students of the Liu family also fell into it. It’s just that Liu Shilang is old-fashioned, with poisonous eyes, and the rumors are wrong. , Expressed his position early and took himself out.He himself has a daughter in the palace, so this incident did not cause much trouble.

In this catastrophe, the second prince fell, Xing's family was also stolen, and the concubine Xing was also claustrophobic.In the harem, apart from the empress dowager and the empress, the biggest mountain fell down, and the concubines and nobles below were secretly happy, realizing that the opportunity had come, and seized the opportunity to seduce the emperor's heart.

Concubine Liu also had this idea.She wasn't favored in the palace originally, but because of her natal family's decency, her status was neither high nor low, at least she could show her face in front of today twice in a month.Concubine Liu used countless tricks, but she really got a little bit of a look back on the present, and after going back and forth, it is said that she was pregnant with a dragon fetus.

Seeing that the Liu family was about to have a son and a grandson, they naturally put all their energy on the empress in the palace, and no one paid any attention to Luo Mingdu.Liu Er made a fuss at home, and Liu Shilang was afraid that he would cause some trouble at this juncture, so he sent him away from a distance, thinking about waiting for the one in the palace to give birth, watching the situation, and then talking to him. If you ask for personal favors today, Liu Er's official position can be raised by one promotion when he comes back.

Originally, foreign officials like Luo Tiandu didn't know these palace secrets, but they couldn't stop the Liu family from showing off.Although Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu knew the seriousness of the matter and refused to publicize it, they couldn't keep the servants in the mansion from keeping their mouths shut. Most importantly, when Liu Er was sent away by his father, he even came to tell the Luo family, In order to impress Luo Mingdu's heart.

When Luo Tiandu heard this, he immediately shut him out.

Just kidding!
They were very careful in Shangjing, they didn't get involved in anything, and they ended up like rats crossing the street. The things in the imperial city were beyond their imagination, Caishikouxing's blood hadn't dried up yet.

After Liu Er left, Luo Tian felt relieved, there would be no one who was blind to stare at her elder sister.Besides, the people in Shangjing knew that Luo Baisu would dare to offend even Liu Shilang because of Luo Mingdu, so they would not make such a foolish thing again.

The only thing that is not settled now is that Luo Baisu's appointment order has not yet come down.

The Luo family waited and waited, and when it was almost autumn and the martial arts examination was about to be held, they finally got Luo Baisu's letter of appointment and went to Yi County, Baxun Prefecture to be a small county magistrate.When Ren Ling came down, Luo Baisu was still stunned for a moment, and his face sank immediately.

When Luo Tiandu saw it, he murmured in his heart.For those who are officials, rather than having a qualification in a small yamen in Beijing with little money, it is better to let them out and find a real shortage.Although the official position of a magistrate of a county is relatively small, he is the magistrate of a county, and he is the local emperor of that county.Luo Baisu can be released outside, it is really better to stay in Beijing.

This was a good thing, but seeing Luo Baisu's displeasure, Luo Tian was puzzled.

Because the martial arts exam was approaching, Cheng Sheng registered his name early and took a leave of absence from the army. He stayed at home for the past few days and never went out.

Luo Tian felt a little strange and secretly asked Cheng Sheng.

Cheng Sheng didn't hide it from her, and told the truth: "That place is poor and remote, not a good place to go."

After hearing this, Luo Tian rolled his eyes.Luo Baisu knew at a glance that he had offended Liu Shilang and was demoted, and he would definitely not arrange any good place for him. She had already prepared that Yi County would definitely not be a rich place.In fact, remote and poor counties are not all bad things. Poor localities are prone to political achievements. If Luo Baisu makes some achievements casually during his tenure, it will be easy to be evaluated in the future.

She didn't quite understand the territory of Daqing, and she didn't know where Ba Xun was, so she went around to inquire about it these days, but the result of her inquiring made her very speechless.

Yi County is a small border town on the border of Daqing. It is said to be a small town, but in fact it is just a few wild mountains with a small population. Because it is close to Dongyi, there have been years of wars, and it has finally calmed down in the past few years.The people in Yi County suffered from the war, the arable land was abandoned, and because of the dangerous terrain, the people were very poor.It is said that unruly people come out of poor mountains and bad waters, the folk customs there are very tough, disobedient to control, with a bit of bandit spirit, there have been incidents of bandit people killing imperial officials in the early years.It is said that a county magistrate surnamed Mei was in office at that time, and he had only been in office for half a year. One night, bandits broke into the yamen, wiped out the magistrate Mei's family, and set the yamen on fire.When the imperial court sent people to investigate the case, even the corpses were gone, leaving only a half-burned house.

There are some wild mountains around Yixian County. Those bandits killed people and hid in the mountains, but no one could be found.People from the imperial court searched in the mountains for several months, but they didn't catch anything. If they couldn't catch the real master, they couldn't bring the whole city's people to it.

Later, the imperial court sent another county magistrate over. It was a bit of a crime to say that the county magistrate had been in office for less than three months, and he had not even taken over his wife and children. One day, he suddenly disappeared. A few days later, someone found the county magistrate in the mountains. A corpse torn apart by wild beasts.

The place is poor and the terrain is dangerous. Since the death of two county magistrates in a row, the imperial court has hated that place. The court officials who were selected to Yixian County would rather stay in Beijing and find another way than to take office. Well, as time went on, even the imperial court almost forgot about that place, and just allocated some food symbolically every year to appease the local people.

That place has been unmanaged for many years. Luo Bai stayed at this juncture, and was suddenly selected to go out. It is still such a ghostly place that everyone avoids. Even if Luo Tian was killed, he would not believe it. This is not the Liu family. moving hands and feet.
