Mingmo pressed his foot against the door to prevent the concierge from closing the corner door.
"Ouch! Sir, we call you uncle, please don't embarrass me. I am just a servant, how can I influence the master's decision? My master is entertaining distinguished guests and really has no time to spare. Why don't you two live together?
Time comes again?"
The concierge looked at Ming Mo and Ming Yan with a grimace, didn't this make things difficult for him?
There was a bit of sarcasm on Mingmo's face, "The enemy has already reached the government office, but you adults still have the thought to entertain guests? You are really not that big-hearted!"
As soon as the concierge heard this, he immediately felt something was wrong, "What did you say? The enemy army is coming? But the enemy army from Daxing?"
"My master has just arrived at Wujun Mansion. How do you know what the situation is like here? Shouldn't I ask your master about this?" Ming Yan raised his eyebrows and was very dissatisfied with the magistrate who was still drinking and having fun even though his enemies had been beaten at the door of his house.
.
"Ouch! Then you should wait a little longer and I'll report it again!" The concierge naturally knew the seriousness. Thinking of the tense atmosphere in the entire city in recent days, he couldn't stand still.
"Forget it, Ming Mo, don't embarrass this little brother!" Gu Chengyu lifted the car curtain, and the concierge immediately turned his attention to the owner of the voice. Unfortunately, before he could see his face clearly, the man lowered the car curtain.
But this voice is really younger.
"Just remove the door panel!" Gu Chengyu waited impatiently. He didn't know who was coming. If Daxing's army attacked, wouldn't it be over?
Although this possibility is unlikely, after all, they have not heard of the fall of Yumen Pass and Yuhe Pass. However, they were delayed for a lot of time on the road. They usually just rush on their way and do not get together with the crowd. It is not necessarily that the news is somewhat blocked.
"Ah?" The concierge was stunned, and then immediately shouted, "Absolutely not!"
Ming Yan's blood suddenly boiled when he heard the master's order. He took the sword placed on the shaft of the car in his hand and said with a fierce expression: "Go away! Otherwise, my sword will not have eyes!"
The concierge was so frightened that he trembled with fear. He didn't understand. Isn't this man a high-ranking official from the capital? But how is this behavior different from those barbarians in Daxing?
"Ouch! Are you trying to force your way in?" Seeing Ming Mo step forward to remove the threshold, the concierge immediately ran towards the house.
Ming Yan didn't care about the other party and went to report it. After all, they just broke in to see the prefect.
A soldier was running out of breath. As soon as he arrived at the Yajiao Gate of the mansion, he saw that the door was wide open and there was not even a guard at the door. He was anxious and couldn't care much anymore, so he immediately rushed into the mansion.
Gu Chengyu got off the carriage and saw that this should be the outer courtyard, and a man who looked like a steward was walking towards it.
"Who are you?" Manager Yang was a little stunned. His Excellency had already said that he would not see guests for the time being, so how did these people get in?
"Let this person lead the way!" Gu Chengyu glanced at the steward. This courtyard has the third entrance. It seems that the banquet place should be at the second entrance.
"Everyone, you should think carefully. That person is a man of great talent and great strategy. After all, the current person is not good enough! You also understand the recent trends of the court. If you can join that person, you will be considered a Conglong Gong in the future. Clan
Youngsters who are promising in the middle school can also use this to rise to the top, or even work as an official with a part-time job. Scholars, peasants, industry and commerce, business is not the right path, only scholars can become a master!"
Magistrate Qiu said meaningfully, taking in the different expressions of everyone below.
"But he is the legitimate heir after all, isn't he?" The man in brocade didn't dare to say, but he didn't expect that Magistrate Qiu invited them here for this matter.
They thought that Magistrate Qiu was just trying to make some money from them, but who would have thought that the other party had such a big appetite. But it must be said that this proposal was really exciting.
But having said that, if it fails, it will be doomed.
"So what? Who did our founding emperor of Dayan snatch the country from? What are you afraid of? Wealth and wealth are in danger, are you willing to have your family be merchants for generations? You all have the opportunity to leap over the dragon's gate.
Not sure? Let me tell you the truth! That person has already begun to conquer cities and territories. As long as you provide some financial resources, he will be prosperous and prosperous in no time!"
Magistrate Qiu had already sent all his servants down. He looked at the people who were still hesitating and felt a little impatient in his heart.
"Why are you still hesitating? How can you become a master without taking a gamble?" The previous words had already moved the hearts of the few people present here. Now that Magistrate Qiu repeatedly provoked them, they naturally became even more moved.
"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly later! Now is a good time to change the family. If you hesitate again, the opportunity will fly away from you. Furthermore, if you are not willing, you will not be able to leave the prefect's yamen today."
Several people had horrified expressions on their faces. They looked at Magistrate Qiu, whose expression turned sinister, and suddenly felt cold air rising from their feet.
If you don't agree, you will be killed and silenced!
"But didn't I hear that the imperial court sent a supervisory censor down before? What's more, Master Yin is still in Yuheguan! If they find out, our lives will be ruined, but you are a noble man, how about this?"
A man wearing a grape purple cross-collar robe said cautiously, looking at Magistrate Qiu with worry in his eyes.
Humph! Magistrate Qiu sneered. This man was very eloquent. Wasn't this just to spy on him?
"I'm not afraid of you, so what are you afraid of? Do you know the two censors sent by the imperial court to guard the border? Humph! Which man in the world doesn't love Golden House and Yan Ruyu?"
Magistrate Qiu laughed wildly. What is the purpose of becoming an official? Being upright and honest and caring for the people is simply ridiculous.
Everyone looked surprised again, "What about Master Yin?"
Gu Chengyu's face was gloomy. He stopped and Ming Mo behind him covered the steward's mouth and dragged him aside.
"Hey~ Those two censors are very obedient now. Master Yin and these two censors are old acquaintances. What do you think? This Master Yin is more difficult. Of the two censors, one has an ordinary background.
There is no family support behind you, and you still want to be an official without money? The other one is from the same Jinshi background, a foot-washing maid, existing like a lady, why should you care?"
Since ancient times, Jinshi people have looked down upon fellow Jinshi people by birth. Although what Qiu Zhifu said was inappropriate and extremely arrogant, it was still the norm in the court.
Those fellow Jinshis are often ridiculed by officials with Jinshi background, but they don't put it openly.
However, these merchants did not dare to follow suit. They were not even official officials. They were still the lowest merchants. How could they have the right to laugh at court officials?
"As for the supervisory censor sent by the imperial court, I heard that he is not very old, and he and Mr. Yin are brothers. If you want to catch this person, there are many ways!"
