Chapter 654 This is impossible!(1/2)
Shen Lian said: "Anyway, this clue can be considered for the time being."
Shen Lian looked at Fang Xuanling and said, "Thank you Lord Fang for giving me the advice. If Beichen's purpose is really what Lord Fang said, then Lord Fang will have made a great contribution."
Fang Xuanling shook his head repeatedly: "I don't dare to take credit. I just had a meal of Master Shen's delicacies and then gave some answers."
"My answer has already been repaid with your good wine and good food, so no matter whether it goes as I said or not, this credit... belongs only to you."
The next day, the sky was bright.
Shen Lian did not go to the venue of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce, but walked to the official office.
After last night's farce, Shen Lian believed that even if there were other thieves hidden among these businessmen, they would definitely not dare to do anything today.
After all, the tragedy of the Japanese and Khitan traitors last night is still vivid in my mind.
The other thieves must have been trembling with fear.
Besides, the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce will be held for four more days, and they still have a lot of time. As long as they have some brains, they will not rush to take action.
Therefore, there is a high probability that today will be calm and there will be no movement.
For Shen Lian, the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce is no longer a big deal.
After solving the Japanese and Khitan countries, we now know that there is a problem with the merchants of the Kucha Kingdom, and the thieves of the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce have basically discovered it.
Even if there were more, Shen Lian didn't think it would be too much.
And Jing Zhaoyin, Hu Bu and Shadow Guard all spent a lot of energy on it.
Therefore, even if a thief does appear, they can easily deal with it.
Therefore, Shen Lian is no longer prepared to spend too much energy on the Wanbang Chamber of Commerce.
For him, finding out Beichen's purpose is the most important thing.
Because he knows Beichen too well.
It's okay if Beichen doesn't take action.
But once Beichen takes action, if Beichen succeeds, the consequences will be absolutely disastrous!
This may be more terrifying than several Wanbang Chamber of Commerce!
Not long after, Shen Lian stopped in front of the official office.
The guard at the door saw Shen Lian and quickly bowed to Shen Lian: "I have met Mr. Shen."
Shen Lian had settled cases before and had been to the Ministry of Personnel several times, so the officials in the Ministry of Personnel were also very familiar with him.
Shen Lian nodded slightly and said, "Is Lord Changsun here?"
The guard hurriedly said: "Master Changsun has just arrived."
Shen Lian nodded: "I want to see Lord Changsun."
The guard quickly stepped aside and said: "Master Shen, please."
Shen Lian smiled: "Thank you very much."
With that said, he entered the official office.
As one of the six departments, the Ministry of Personnel has a very high status in the hearts of officials, and the Yamen is also very magnificent.
Of course, a luxurious castle cannot be compared with the Ministry of Revenue, which is in charge of money and food, but because the Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the promotion and demotion of all officials, in the minds of officials, their status is higher than that of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Sun Wuji, the official's chief minister, was naturally revered by the officials.
In addition to Changsun Wuji's status as a relative of the emperor, his status as Minister of Civil Affairs also prevented officials from taking him lightly. After all, if Changsun Wuji was offended and Changsun Wuji casually wrote a "failure" on the year-end evaluation, then
This will make this official have no hope of promotion in his life.
Even if they are qualified, the appointment of officials is still based on the appointment of the Ministry of Personnel.
Therefore, Changsun Wuji can completely transfer him to a place where birds can't poop, thus ruining his future future...
Therefore, except for officials with statuses such as Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin, ordinary officials would like to enshrine their eldest grandson...
As a result, Changsun Wuji had an outstanding position in the entire Tang Dynasty.
At this time, Changsun Wuji was looking through the files sent by his subordinates.
"grown ups."
At this time, an official from the Ministry of Personnel walked in.
Changsun Wuji picked up the teacup, took a slow sip of tea, and said, "The tea doesn't taste very good. Let's go to the Ministry of Finance to get some new tea."
"Also, the local year-end review is about to begin. We are going to send notices to local officials to ask them to prepare. Those who want to be promoted should give their own time and don't make a mess. The Ministry of Personnel will not clean up the mess for them.
."
"besides……"
"Lord Changsun."
Seeing that Changsun Wuji couldn't finish what he was saying, the junior official couldn't help but interrupt Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji was interrupted and his brows could not help but frown.
But before he said anything, he heard the clerk say: "Master Shen, the great lord of the Tang Dynasty, is here. He is outside the door now. He wants to see Master Changsun."
Changsun Wuji heard the word Shen Lian.
He stood up immediately.
He stopped drinking tea leisurely or arranging tasks. He said directly: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Shen Lian saved my son's life. He is my benefactor. Why don't you invite Mr. Shen in quickly?"
"never mind!"
Changsun Wuji walked directly out and said, "I will pick him up personally!"
"If Shen Lian comes again in the future, just tell him that if you linger here, if Shen Lian feels that I am neglecting you, I will not spare you!"
Shen Lian had already entered the official office and was waiting outside Changsun Wuji's room.
So as soon as Changsun Wuji left the room, he saw Shen Lian.
Changsun Wuji hurriedly walked towards Shen Lian and said with a smile: "Master Shen, come here to see me, why didn't you send someone to inform you in advance? In this case, I will greet you at the door."
Shen Lian smiled and cupped his hands and said: "I know that Mr. Changsun is busy with official duties, and my matter is not a big deal, so I went there in person, and I don't want to bother Mr. Changsun. It will be too much trouble for Mr. Changsun."
Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "How can you say it's trouble? You are more important than anything else in my heart."
"So, in my opinion, your matter is a major headache. Nothing in this world can compare to Lord Shen's matter."
Shen Lian smiled, knowing that Changsun Wuji was deliberately getting close to him.
So he no longer refused, he smiled and said: "Then I will never be polite to Lord Changsun from now on."
Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "This is right!"
He invited Shen Lian into the office and then ordered his subordinates to prepare tea.
When the tea was served, Changsun Wuji eagerly filled Shen Lian's cup with tea.
Shen Lian picked up the tea cup, blew on the tea noodles, took a sip of tea, nodded and said: "Good tea!"
Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "I still have a lot of tea like this. If Lord Shen likes it, I can bring some with me when I go back later."
Shen Lian said: "How can this be so embarrassing?"
Changsun Wuji said seriously: "Master Shen, please don't be polite to me. I don't like drinking tea that much. If you like it, then it won't be a waste."
When Shen Lian saw this, he smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank Lord Changsun."
When the subordinates on the side saw this scene, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Mr. Changsun really valued Shen Lian too much and cared too much.
Just now, Mr. Changsun said that there was not much tea left and asked him to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to get some.
Now I have to give the tea directly to Master Shen!
If he hadn't been here all the time, he would have thought that he was hallucinating just now.
But he was not jealous of Shen Lian.
After all, he knew Shen Lian's abilities.
Shen Lian has solved countless cases, has a great reputation among the people, and is highly valued by His Majesty. Now he is going to become the Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty.
Everything is enough to make Mr. Shen the most popular person in the court.
Therefore, it is normal for Changsun Wuji to treat Shen Lian like this.
Not to mention, Shen Lian also saved Changsun Wuji's son, so the relationship between them should be even closer.
After drinking tea, Changsun Wuji looked at Shen Lian and said, "Master Shen came to see me early in the morning, but is there anything you want me to do?"
Changsun Wuji said directly: "If Master Shen has anything to do, just ask him. As long as it is something I can do, I will not shirk it."
Shen Lian put down the teacup and said, "Master Changsun, I won't be polite to you anymore. I really have something I want to ask for your advice."
Changsun Wuji said: "Master Shen, please tell me."
