From eunuch to emperor

"It's in the guest room, I'll call them."

He Juntao immediately went to the guest room to find Qi Wenhai and the others.

It was agreed last night, and today I will take them to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to find an errand.

Last time when Zhehuaxian's disciple Xiaoling caused trouble in the capital, Long Chen felt that the criminal department's arrest department was very poor, and he always wanted to build up the criminal department's arrest team.

It so happened that Qi Wenhai and six people did this, and Long Chen planned to recommend them to the Ministry of Punishment.

Long Chen stood at the door, Xiaohu was practicing martial arts, and Hua'er was watching from the side.

After finishing a set of boxing, Xiaohu began to practice marksmanship again.

The spear is the king of all soldiers, the most commonly used weapon on the battlefield is the long spear, Long Chen asked Xiaohu to practice Tyrannosaurus marksmanship.

Soon, Qi Wenhai and the six followed He Juntao to the door.

"King Wu."

Six put on their best clothes, but they still looked shabby.

These years, they hunted Li Yunbao outside, and they had almost no income, so their clothes would not be any better.

"Jun Tao, go and buy them two good outfits."

He Juntao bowed, "I obey."

Qi Wenhai looked down at his clothes and shoes, and said embarrassingly, "I forgot to change into a better one."

Long Chen smiled, and said: "Let's go, go to the Ministry of Punishments today."

The six of them were very happy when they heard that they were going to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

They were born as fast arresters, so it was just right for them to go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

The horses were ready, Long Chen walked in front, Qi Wenhai and Guan Yue were behind, and the others looked at the bustling capital right away, lamenting that the capital is just right.

"Such a good horse is estimated to cost 100 taels of silver."

The man behind touched the horse. It was his first time riding such a good horse.

"It's like a war horse from the prairie, it's the best."

The man next to him said.

Walking through the street, outside the criminal department, the yamen servant recognized Long Chen, and hurried in to report.

As soon as Long Chen got off his horse and went straight in, he saw Wu Wenjing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice trotting out, followed by Ma Tao, the servant of the Ministry of Justice.

The former Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment retired, Wu Wenjing took over the post of Shangshu, and Ma Tao, who was originally a doctor, was promoted to the post of servant.

Hearing that Long Chen was coming, Wu Wenjing was so frightened that he walked backwards to meet him.

"Meet King Wu!"

Wu Wenjing and his servant Ma Tao saluted respectfully.

Long Chen said with a smile: "Wu Shangshu is too polite."

Wu Wenjing hurriedly asked Long Chen to sit down in the living room.

Wu Wenjing led the way, Long Chen and Qi Wenhai went to the living room and sat down.

Long Chen took the main seat, Wu Wenjing sat down on the side, and Qi Wenhai and the other six sat on the opposite side.

"King Wu came to the Ministry of Punishment today, what's the matter?"

Wu Wenjing was caught by Long Chen and almost died. Now when he sees Long Chen, he feels terrified.

Long Chen said with a smile: "I came to the Ministry of Punishment today to ask for something."

Wu Wenjing was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Don't dare, please order, King Wu!"

Long Chen looked at Qi Wenhai and the six people and said: "These six are the public servants of Helin County, Qianjiang County. This is the head arrester Qi Wenhai, and that is the deputy head arrester Guan Yue."

The six stood up together and bowed to Wu Wenjing: "My lord Shangshu."

Wu Wenjing immediately returned the salute with his half-up body: "That's too polite."

As a minister, Wu Wenjing didn't pay much attention to a few small police officers.

This way of returning the gift is for Long Chen's face, and Qi Wenhai and the others know it very well.

"I met a few of them on the way to Jinling. In order to hunt down a murderer, they gave up their official positions and spent six years to catch the murderer."

"I thought the Ministry of Punishment also needed such generals, so I brought them here to meet Wu Shangshu, hoping to find a job under your command."

Long Chen told the whole story.

Wu Wenjing suddenly said: "Oh, so it was you, I heard that the thief is Li Yunbao, who killed many people."

"I didn't expect you to know King Wu. The Ministry of Punishment is in need of generals like you."

As soon as Long Chen said it, Wu Wenjing remembered it.

Qianjiang County reported the matter of Qi Wenhai and the others to the Ministry of Punishment, and Wu Wenjing wanted to reuse them at that time, but Qianjiang County said that Qi Wenhai and the others did not plan to be arresters.

Wu Wenjing felt strange at the time, why such a good headhunter was not appropriate.

Now I finally know that Qi Wenhai defected to Long Chen.

Backed by the big tree Long Chen, the small yamen in Helin County naturally looked down upon it.

"King Wu, there just happens to be a vacancy here, and Qi Wenhai is just right to arrest Si Que, a doctor."

"The lower officials want Qi Wenhai to be the arrest officer, what do you think?"

Long Chen looked at Qi Wenhai, waiting for Qi Wenhai to make his own decision.

Qi Wenhai was overjoyed when he heard that, the criminal department arrested Si Langzhong, an official of the fifth rank, and he had reached the sky in one step.

The catchers and head catchers in the county are actually officials, not officials, they have no rank, and they are not officials ordered by the court.

And the fifth-rank arrest officer is a high-ranking official, and Qi Wenhai has changed from a temporary worker to a Beijing official in one step.

Qi Wenhai immediately bowed: "Little one is willing!"

Long Chen smiled and said: "Then I would like to thank Wu Shangshu, arresting Si Langzhong is the position of the fifth grade, I will tell the official department."

Officials of the fifth rank need to be appointed by the Ministry of Officials.

Qi Wenhai had never been an official before, and he was recruited from a small county to serve as a doctor. This did not conform to the promotion rules, and Long Chen had to greet the officials.

Wu Wenjing said: "Thank you, King Wu, for your understanding. The qualifications of the lower officials are still young. If the lower officials say it to the Ministry of Officials, Baili Shangshu may not agree."

"King Wu go and say it, and it will happen naturally."

Bai Libing, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, belongs to the Empress, and has a good relationship with Long Chen, if Long Chen talks about this matter, it will definitely succeed.

Qi Wenhai was as happy as a dream.

"Then you stay in the Ministry of Punishment and work with Wu Shangshu. You must work hard and don't let Wu Shangshu trust you."

The six of Qi Wenhai stood up and said: "I will not disappoint Lord Shangshu."

Wu Wenjing laughed and said, "No, no, it's not my kindness, but King Wu's kindness."

After chatting about other gossips for a while, Long Chen got up and left the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Qi Wenhai and the other six stayed behind.

With Long Chen's relationship, the six of them will naturally enjoy themselves in the Ministry of Punishment.

Long Chen came out of the Ministry of Punishments and went directly to the Ministry of Officials.

The six parts are together, and you will arrive within a few steps.

When he entered the official department, he sent someone to report to Bailibing in a hurry.

Soon, Baili Bing came out to greet him.

"How can King Wu come to my place today?"

Baili Bing walked out with a smile.

Long Chen said with a smile: "Shangshu Baili is in charge of the promotion and dismissal of officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He is usually very busy, and I never dare to disturb him."

Baili Bing asked Long Chen to sit down, and said with a smile: "King Wu is just joking, my yamen is in charge of heaven and earth, how can I still control King Wu?"

Long Chen is a prince, half a level higher than the four princesses, so Baili Bing definitely has nothing to do with it.

Long Chen said with a smile: "Whoever says it's out of control, I just asked for something today."

Baili Bing smiled and said: "It's strange, King Wu has never expressed love for others, but today he did."

"I don't know which female general it is? Or whose daughter is good-looking?"

Baili Bing was joking, Long Chen said with a smile: "Baili Shangshu is too much, I am a serious person, what do you call it?"

"It's like this. Last time I went to Jinling, I met a group of hunters from Helin County. Maybe you know that it's Qi Wenhai."

"I see that they are dedicated to their duties and are good people, so I recommend them to the Ministry of Punishment."

"Wu Shangshu said that there is a vacancy in the position of arrest officer, but you need to agree to the position, so I'll come here to ask for mercy."

After listening to Long Chen's words, Bai Libing nodded and said: "Oh, Qi Wenhai, I have read Qianjiang County's books and newspapers, the one that has been chasing the murderer for six years."

"Langzhong is the fifth grade, and this matter needs to be known by the emperor."

"Qi Wenhai is a capable person, and was recommended by King Wu, the Holy Majesty should approve."

"I will draft a report here. After the Holy Majesty agrees, I will immediately send the appointment document to the Ministry of Punishment."

There is no problem with the person, and with Long Chen's recommendation, Baili Bing is happy to be a favor.

Anyway, the Empress will definitely agree.
