Chapter 26: The Black Near Ink

After Chen Yunfu entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Shao Zhi never asked Chen Yunfu again. After waiting for more than ten days, Shao Ziheng knocked on Chen Yunfu's door at night and told him that Shao Zhi wanted to see him.

.

"My uncle has sent me a message, but do you have any instructions?"

Chen Yunfu bowed and asked why. When he straightened up, he took a peek at Shao Zhi's face.

After not seeing him for more than half a month, Shao Zhi looked quite haggard, with fatigue visible to the naked eye on his face.

"Yunfu is here, sit down."

Shao Zhi covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughed twice, and waved.

"It's been a while since you've been here at the Metropolitan Procuratorate. How do you feel about it?"

"Thanks to uncle, it's all good." Chen Yunfu gave Shao Zhi some tea before sitting down and replied, "It's just that I'm a little too busy and have nothing to do all day long."

Shao Zhi laughed and tapped the former a few times with one finger: "You are sincere.

If I could do nothing like you, then the world would really be harmonious."

Chen Yunfu held his breath and said cautiously: "Looking at my uncle's demeanor, I'm afraid there will be a lot of things going on in the court during this period."

"Don't talk about that." Shao Zhi waved his hand and refused to talk more, and directly turned the topic back to Chen Yunfu: "Let's talk about you. I heard from Ge Sidao that Chen Xinli, the inspector of the Zhaomo Division, worked as a substitute for Zhaomo.

It’s a place for inspection, right?”

"yes."

Shao Zhi then looked at Chen Yunfu and said: "This promotion is a rare opportunity. With this step, I will transform from a clerk to an official. Do you want me to explain it to Ge Sidao?"

"I dare not trouble my uncle." Chen Yunfu quickly stood up and bowed: "My nephew is not very talented and has little knowledge at the same time. He is a novice at the same time. Being able to study in the Metropolitan Procuratorate is a blessing from the Holy God. My uncle is taking care of me, so I don't dare to live in this way."

think."

Shao Zhi said nothing, looked at Chen Yunfu quietly, and after a moment he said hum.

"I am very pleased that you are not moved by fame and fortune. Yes, you are still young after all. If you really take this step, you will be too conspicuous. Showing off is a taboo in officialdom."

"Yes, nephew, keep this in mind."

Even without Shao Zhi's warning, Chen Yunfu had no intention of taking this step, just as Shao Zhi said.

Mu Xiu Yulin is indeed taboo in officialdom.

If you are too eye-catching, there will be more political opponents, and there will be more open and covert attacks. Chen Yunfu will not be exhausted mentally and physically by then.

Chen Yunfu stayed at Shao's house for dinner before saying goodbye and leaving. As a result, when he arrived at the door of his house, he met an unexpected person.

High and straight.

"How come Brother Gao is here?"

Chen Yunfu felt a little dissatisfied, but he didn't want to get angry, so he casually raised his hand.

As soon as Gao Zhi saw Chen Yunfu, his eyes lit up. He took two steps to meet Reluo and said, "Brother Yunfu is really secretive. I didn't dare to think that Brother Yunfu was the master of Tianjie Temple earlier."

,Disrespect, disrespect."

Not many people in the Procuratorate knew about Chen Yunfu's identity, but everyone knew about it in Beisanjia Street. Gao Zhi came here to inquire about it, so he was sure to ask.

This discovery shocked Gao Zhi.

Everyone is still discussing which minister is behind Chen Yunfu. The person standing behind the emotional family is Emperor Hongwu, the living god and Buddha!

The holy grace of chanting sutras and keeping vigil for Empress Ma for half a year was enough for Chen Yunfu to live with him for a lifetime.

If Chen Xinli knew about this, wouldn't he rush to send the inspection position to Chen Yunfu?

"Brother Gao came here to see me late at night just to talk about this?"

Chen Yunfu frowned, feeling very disgusted with this uprightness.

"Hey, Brother Yunfu." Gao Zhi shouted to Brother Yunfu with a shy face, not too embarrassed: "The temperature has dropped today, why don't we go into the house to talk?"

"My little brother is a white official. Where did he come from?"

Chen Yunfu picked out Gao Zhi's speech problem and said unceremoniously: "I have to be on duty tomorrow morning. Brother Gao, please come back."

After being ordered to be expelled, Gao Zhi's face looked a little ugly, but he didn't dare to get angry, so he just said all the words in his heart.

"Brother Yunfu doesn't know. Tonight, our Chen Xinli and Chen Zhaomo went to Ding Jitong's house. After all, Ding Jitong's father is a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, and his uncle is a doctor of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. It can be said that the word substitute on Chen Xinli's head

Whether it can be removed, Ding Jitong’s family can use some help.”

The more Chen Yunfu listened, the more he frowned. He simply stopped and glanced sideways.

"Brother Gao, please just say it. I really don't understand you."

Gao Zhi finally figured it out. Either Chen Yunfu really didn't intend to take this step, or he didn't regard Gao Zhi as a friend, so he didn't intend to reveal the truth.

Immediately he gritted his teeth, looked around a few times, then spit out a stack of treasure money from his sleeve.

"Gao's family is not very talented. He has opened several restaurants in Jinling City and has a small income. Brother Yunfu, if you don't mind it, please accept it."

Chen Yunfu suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Gao Zhi's hand holding the money, and became angry.

"It is a law of the Ming Dynasty that anyone who has committed corruption or accepted a bribe of more than 50 taels will be stripped of his skin. Fortunately, you are still a minister of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. If it were not for the sake of the two of my colleagues, I would have to send you to the official court!"

Gao Zhi also didn't expect that Chen Yunfu would be so angry, and he was also frightened. Before he could speak again, he heard Chen Yunfu yell and curse.

"roll!"

After saying that, he pushed Gao Zhi, turned around and trotted home quickly.

After the day-to-day concierge at home closed the door, Chen Yunfu breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and secretly cursed him as a bastard.

This straightness is really not a thing!

He is so full of nonsense that he really lives up to his name.

straight?

The road has detoured to bribery.

"It's really a shame to be close to the ink as soon as you enter the official career!"
