Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

  Gu Lekang was out of filial piety, and he was going to line up to be an official at the Ministry of Personnel. Before his filial piety, he was the prefect of the fourth grade. According to the usual practice, if he was full of filial piety, he would either be promoted or transferred to the same level, and he would never be demoted.

However, the maneuverability is too great. Although the Ministry of Personnel will not be downgraded, it can be held down. When you have a position, first arrange for someone else, keep him for a year or two, or even longer, and tell him that there is still no vacancy. , he has nothing to do.

   That's why management is needed, and that's why the personnel department is the same fat department as the household department among the six departments. The household department has money, while the personnel department has power.

   Money can be exchanged for rights, and rights can also be exchanged for money.

  Fortunately, the administration of officials is fairly clear now, and Gu Lekang successfully reported his name without spending any extra money.

   And the Hou Zhongyong Mansion has long since fallen, Gu Lekang can only inquire about the news through his former classmates and the same year. He doesn't want to stay in the capital, and he doesn't want to achieve nothing in his life. He just wants to go out, so he can accept even a downgrade.

   One of Gu Lekang was working as a court official in the Ministry of Personnel in the same year, and he took the time to say to him, "I have inquired, your position has been fixed, and you will be transferred at an equal level."

   Gu Lekang was surprised, "So fast?"

   "Listen to what my commander said, it seems to be a greeting from above, not to embarrass you, I said Brother Gu, you are too unkind, you clearly have connections, why do you bother to ask me to inquire about you?"

  Gu Lekang hurriedly got up and saluted: "Brother Xin misunderstood, I also asked Brother Zhou except you, and I didn't find anyone else."

   Brother Xin was curious, "Could it be that your family found it? After all, it used to be the home of the prince..."

  Gu Lekang shook his head, since his grandfather passed away, apart from a few honorable families who had a close relationship, there were not many contacts in the mansion. His two cousins ​​will also be reinstated, and there is no news yet.

   They are still officials with little real power, and they have to wait for a long time. How could he be so quick?

  It took less than half a month for him to report. Although he has not practiced in the Sixth Division, he knows the rules. People like him who keep filial piety and seek reinstatement usually have to wait for about three months, and half a year is the norm.

   "Could it be Brother Zhou?" Brother Xin whispered: "It's impossible, he doesn't have the ability, and if it were him, he would have told you already."

  Gu Lekang bowed his head in thought, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out who it was.

   Within two days, the appointment letter from the Ministry of Personnel came down. He was to be transferred to Hangzhou as the prefect. The former prefect of Hangzhou had to keep filial piety just like him. Because his home was in Shu, he didn’t even go back to the capital, so he left with his seal on it.

  Hangzhou is an important place, and it is the spring ploughing season, so the time for taking office is very urgent, and the bureau of officials only gave him three days to prepare.

He just received the appointment book, Xin Tongke and Zhou Tongke came to practice with him together, Xin Tongke took the time to pull him aside and said, "I heard, it is said that someone wants to please Mrs. Gu and deliberately pressed your document down. , after leaking the news to Gu Taifu, Gu Taifu said, "The national weapon is used privately, bullying the ruler and beating the people, so many years of books have been read into the belly of the dog, and the official governance of Da Chu is because of these people. '. The Censor Desk had just drafted to impeach him, and the Minister of Personnel first dismissed him on the charge of dereliction of duty, so the Censor Desk could only impeach the Minister of Personnel for his lax rule and ineffective supervision, and demanded that he be investigated and punished. Look, there are other malfeasances."

   This matter was not a big deal, only some officials at the upper level knew about him, and he, a court official who had no right to go to court, had not heard the complete news until now.

Some time ago, the officials were indeed attacked by the censors, but that was the duty of the censors. If they attacked the officials today, they might pick on the households tomorrow. If the censors were in a bad mood, they would It may be possible to take out the six parts in one day, and these errand officials have long been accustomed to it, but Gu Lekang is also involved.

  Gu Lekang didn't expect to involve himself, he said silently for a while: "Thank you, Brother Xin, for the point, otherwise I'll go to the post this time in a daze, and I'll offend people behind my back but I don't know."

"Where, there is no chance that we can get in the same subject, let alone we are so lucky." Xin Tongke laughed: "Don't worry about the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel, that person has been dismissed, even if he is rehabilitated, he is a foreigner. Let it go, he is at the same level as you, and if he makes a mistake, he must be demoted, so you overwhelm him."

  Gu Lekang shook his head and said, "It's hard to guard against villains, but I'm not afraid."

"It's thanks to Mrs. Gu for this matter. If it wasn't for him, you wouldn't know how long you'd be under pressure. After all, you're a real brother. From this point of view, he's not completely ruthless towards you. It's better to prepare some gifts to thank you and take the opportunity to settle the relationship. Do it better. If you have Master Gu to watch over you in the capital, you can take care of yourself when you are outside."

   Gu Lekang smiled calmly and said, "Brother Xin thinks too much. It's not that you don't know that Mrs. Gu is devoted to the public. He is not doing this for me, but for His Majesty, for the world, and it's just that I bumped into it."

  Xin Tongke saw that he was open-minded and unmoved at all, sighed slightly, and spurned himself in his heart and said: After all, it is his own utilitarianism, and this is the gentleman.

  Gu Lekang didn't go to Gu Jingyun, and they didn't disturb each other's lives. He took over Ren Shu and started to pack up and leave.

   The positions of the two cousins ​​have not yet come down, but they are not very worried. With Gu Lekang's example ahead, their positions will not be held for too long.

   And unlike Gu Lekang, Gu Lekang is a real position with real power and a prefect of a government, but they are living in the capital and waiting to die, and the position does not matter, whether you want it or not.

  According to their grandfather's will, the next step is to take good care of the household affairs, cultivate the third generation, let Lekang maintain the momentum, and wait for the third generation to have connections when they leave office.

  As long as the family is still rich and the children in the family can still work hard, the Uncle Loyalty Mansion can always stand up.

  Gu Lekang took his mother, wife and children to take office, and he would not come back for a long time after leaving.

   He likes to be a local official very much, because he can do practical things, manage the people, let them live and work in peace and contentment, although the days are still difficult, but every year is a little better, and looking back after many years, there is a great sense of accomplishment.

   He likes it.

   So every time he was transferred, he asked the Ministry of Personnel to be released, and he was unwilling to return to Beijing. Gu Lekang's performance is good, and he is excellent in the examination of the Ministry of Personnel every year. Even the emperor can't help but pay attention to him.

   Even if he is the child of Gu Huaijin and Fang, it is hard for the emperor to feel bad for him after seeing his achievements, so he waved his hand and let him stay in place.

   In the end, when Mr. Fang died, Gu Lekang wrote a letter to resign from the official and keep filial piety, and the emperor wrote a letter to win his love.

   That year was when the Yellow River embankment was being built. Gu Lekang saw that one third of the embankment was completed and gritted his teeth.

   Finally, when the Yellow River embankment was completed, he also took root in the two lakes and became the governor of the two lakes.

   It has been ten years since he did this. He felt that it was no longer possible to advance in the local area, and the two lakes also needed fresh blood, so he wrote a letter to serve.

The second-rank officer is going to resign, which can be regarded as a major national event. The six departments are deeply impressed by him. One is because they have dealt with him a lot these years; the second is because of his identity; the third is because he can obviously return Jing went a step further, but he was unwilling to return.

  The emperor rejected it three times very rarely. Gu Lekang was capricious, so he simply handed over government affairs to his subordinates, and took his old wife to hang the seal. He did not return to the capital or his hometown, but went directly to Qiongzhou.

The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty are stunned. It is true that there are no officials who have directly put their seals on this year, but there has never been one official above the third rank in this dynasty, not to mention Gu Lekang is recognized as stable and restrained, which is different from that kind of willful and romantic celebrities. .

   It is not unusual for Gu Jingyun to do this, but it is too unusual for Gu Lekang to do it.

   Shi Wei and Zheng Xu, who were standing in the front row, looked at each other and couldn't help recalling Gu Lekang's appearance when he was a teenager, and suddenly felt that it was nothing unusual for him to do such a thing.

   They all blame him for being so good over the years, steady and restrained, and comprehensive, making them almost forget his domineering when he was young. After all, that is his nature, right?

   Gu Lekang, who had exposed his nature, was taking his wife for a walk on the beach, blowing the sea breeze and stepping on the fine sand. He couldn't help but pouted and said, "It's not a loss for him when he was young in such a beautiful place."

  Gu Su laughed when he heard it, "Then let's go back?"

  Gu Lekang shook his head, "Since everyone is here, we can't let down the beauty, we should have a good time."

Gu Lekang walked little by little along the path of the sinners' exile. He saw the low houses and the sinners working in the countryside. He gradually had some complicated emotions in his eyes, "It turns out that the sin village is Like this..."

The old Er Xi whispered: "I have asked about it, and now the sin village is much better than it was a few decades ago, at least it can support itself, it is not like before if there are too many children and drowning. But they hand in hand. The tax is still more than twice as heavy as that of the good people, so it’s better that’s it.”

Gu Su sighed, "So don't be a bad person, let alone be a bad official, the bad person pays off, it's only you who suffers when he commits a crime, if he dies alone, he will die, but when a bad official commits a crime, the whole family is affected. "

Gu Lekang's face was indifferent, "They are not all innocent, and they have to pay for it. Except for the innocent people who are wronged, the people here don't need too much sympathy from us, and it's just that my brothers and sisters have feelings for this place, so I invested in it. So much energy."

   In recent years, Gu Lekang has experienced a lot, and his heart has hardened a lot. Gu Su looked up at him and asked, "Would you like to send them some souvenirs?"

  Gu Lekang shook his head, "No need, I just came to see, not to mention that they have people in Qiongzhou, will they still be short of Qiongzhou's local specialties?"

After so many years, the brothers Gu Lekang and Gu Jingyun still have no contact or contact, but Gu Lekang always pays attention to their news. Gu Su is anxious to see it, and feels that since he cares about this brother so much, why not put down the air and repair the relationship, even if You can't be as close as other brothers, but you can walk around as relatives, right?

   But Gu Lekang doesn't, he knows that Gu Jingyun just doesn't hate him, at most he just admires him, but he definitely doesn't want to get involved with him.

  Since this is the case, why should he bother, it will only trouble people.

   He came to Qiongzhou this time just because he was simply curious. He wondered if the Qiongzhou written in his sister-in-law's book was as beautiful and interesting as what she wrote, like a pearl, but it was filled with grievances and sorrows like dust?

   After walking through Qiongzhou, he also wanted to visit the place where he worked, especially the small county town in the southwest, where his career started.
