Lin Ji couldn't understand Zi Shu's sudden confidence.
However, when he took the letter and saw the signature on the envelope, his face showed a bit of surprise.
"Zheng Lixin? It was actually written by Mr. Zheng himself?"
Zheng Lixin is the clerk of the Chief Office of the Jiantiansi. If he were to have a true status, he would be the head of the civil service in the Jiantiansi Yamen and could even be on par with Official You Tian.
An autograph letter from such an important person in the Supervisory Office was actually sent by someone from the Editorial Office?
Suddenly, even before reading the contents of the letter, Lin Ji's heart sank to the bottom.
It seems that something big has indeed happened in the capital, and it is a big thing that even Supervisor Tiansi has too much time to take care of, and even cannot protect himself.
Otherwise, Zheng Lixin's letter would never be delivered by someone from the Editorial Department.
Thinking of this, Lin Ji opened the envelope and took out the letter paper.
It was rare for him to read every word in the letter carefully, and his face became increasingly gloomy with the content of the letter.
It’s just a short page, and it’s all coming to an end very quickly.
After reading it, Lin Ji frowned and remained silent, unable to speak for a long time.
The content of the letter was very simple, but Lin Ji was a little unbelievable.
"Master Fang resigned from the Supervisory Office, Master Shen and Master Zi, one of them defied the order and disrespected the emperor, and the other disappeared?" Lin Ji muttered a few words subconsciously.
This is the only content in the letter, which tells the story of the three wandering officials of the Supervisory Office.
"Master Lin, how are you?" Seeing Lin Ji's bewildered look, Zi Shu finally smiled again on his face.
He originally planned to give Lin Ji a showdown, but who would have thought that he would be defeated by an entire army. Now he has finally regained some face.
Hearing Zi Shu's voice, Lin Ji came back to his senses and looked at Zi Shu, and then he chuckled lightly.
"Haha...hahahaha."
Smiling and laughing, Lin Ji could no longer hold back, and her laughter gradually became wilder.
"Why are you laughing?!" Zishu was puzzled, "Your backer is no longer the acting head of Supervisor Tiansi, and even now Supervisor Tiansi is leaderless, how can you still laugh?"
Hearing this, Lin Ji stopped smiling slightly.
"It has only been ten years since Lin joined the Tiantian Division."
"how?"
"Now that the position of the head of the Tianjian Division has been vacant for a long time, the three Youtian officials are no longer in charge... Lin, a mere third-grade town official, has now become one of the most powerful figures in the Tianjian Division.
Now, do you think this is funny or not?"
Zi Shu was stunned, but he didn't expect Lin Ji to laugh because of this.
He couldn't figure it out or understand it.
If one day Lan Zeying from the Editorial Department disappears, he will never be able to laugh.
After a while, Lin Ji finally stopped smiling and put away the letter in his hand.
"These things happened more than half a month ago, and now the news has been sent to Lin. I guess it was the work of your editorial department, right?"
Zishu's expression changed, and he was about to retort when he saw Lin Ji waving his hand impatiently.
"Lin is always fast-talking, and the most annoying thing about people is being false and submissive. You came here today and gave Lin some authority, making it clear that he is not a good person... Tell me, what do you want to do as an editor? Don't use any more checks.
Come to prevaricate."
Hearing this, Zi Shu rolled his eyes, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"Since Mr. Lin is so happy, I won't hide it anymore... The Supervisor Tiansi is leaderless, but Jiuzhou cannot be in chaos. Therefore, Mr. Lan ordered me to stay in Weizhou temporarily, which can be regarded as helping the colleagues of the Supervisor Tiansi to maintain stability.
state situation.”
Lin Ji smiled slightly and said, "What if I don't agree?"
"Then we will stay in the city for a few days, wait for Lord Lan to ask for the imperial edict in front of the Holy One, and then talk to Lord Lin with the imperial edict."
Zishu responded with a smile, as if he was sure to win over Lin Ji.
And this is indeed the case. Today's Supervisor Tiansi does not have anyone in the capital who can withstand the pressure of the imperial court.
Originally, the Supervisor Tiansi only obeyed orders from the Qin court in name only. If there were any orders from above, he would ask the chief to come and discuss them. If the chief did not agree, the order would not be issued.
Everyone has a good reputation, Jian Tiansi remains independent and nominally belongs to the imperial court.
But now that there is no one on top, the court's orders cannot be ignored.
The crime of disobeying orders is not always easy to bear.
Thinking of this, Lin Ji nodded slightly in agreement, and then said: "This is the Weizhou Jiantiansi Yamen. Are you here to help, just to obey my orders?"
Lin Ji adopted an official tone and his tone became more severe.
Zishu was stunned, looked at Lin Ji for a moment, and then said: "After all, we are the editor..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Ji said coldly: "Master Zishu said earlier that he was coming to the Supervisor Tiansi to help. Why...do you want me to obey your orders as soon as you come?"
"Dare I ask how high your rank is, Mr. Zishu? Oh, I forgot. The highest eunuch rank is the fourth rank. Even Lan Zeying, the chief eunuch, is only a subordinate of me if we really talk about it." Lin
Ji said with a smile.
Without waiting for Zi Shu to react, he pointed at the corpse on the ground.
"The one who committed the crime just now in front of me has already been punished. I have always been intolerant of contempt in my eyes, and I am even more strict with my subordinates...Zizhu, how do you treat me?"
After the words fell, Lin Ji placed his hand on the hilt of the sword again, and his aura slowly rose.
Feeling the increasingly powerful pressure from Lin Ji, Zi Shu's expression changed several times, and he finally had no choice but to stand up and salute.
"I have met Mr. Lin."
The moment he finished speaking, Lin Ji slapped him!
Zi Shu's expression changed, and he quickly stepped back to avoid it, but as soon as he took half a step away, the slap was already in front of him, and he couldn't dodge it at all.
Snapped!
With a fierce slap, Zi Shu flew backwards and hit the wall. The entire right side of his face was swollen, and his mouth was full of blood mixed with broken teeth, making him look extremely embarrassed.
"Is it normal for a subordinate to sit on the throne?" Lin Ji sneered, "It's not just a joke that I am extremely strict with my subordinates, Zishu... next time you are disrespectful to me, don't forget your
The fate of my colleague Wu Ma."
After the words fell, Lin Ji winked at Feng Zhiruo, and then the two of them left the meeting hall.
After Lin Ji left, the policemen from the Editorial Department quickly helped Zi Shu up.
"Sir, Lin Jina..."
"No need to say more!" Zishu looked gloomy, but raised his hand to stop his words.
He looked at the direction Lin Ji was leaving, took a deep breath, and said: "Today's Supervisor Tiansi is not like before... It doesn't matter if I feel a little wronged, then Lin Ji won't be able to dance for a few days.
"
"Go and send a message to Beijing. Most of my purpose of coming to Victoria has been achieved, and the next thing is beyond my control."
