Troubled Times: Added six doors at the beginning, pushing the world horizontally

Chapter 183
It wasn't until Shen Du left that Ke Jian came back to his senses, his expression fluctuating.

He knew very well that what Shen Du said was not wrong.

Even if he doesn't want to, there are people in the helm who are willing to take the risk.

A flash of determination flashed in Ke Jian's eyes, he walked over to the mansion not far away, and said coldly: "Since that's the case, then it's time for me to come up with a title certificate!"

Wealth is in danger!
As long as the chief arrester above him is around, he will never be able to make his mark.

And it is impossible to bring down that chief arrester with his strength.

Even if he is willing to seek refuge with the dignitaries in the court, there are still people behind his boss to support him, not to mention that the dignitaries in the court are the first to win over the chief arrester.

"How can a person who sits on a vegetarian diet get the position of chief arrester!"

A trace of coldness flashed in Ke Jian's eyes.

……

After leaving the restaurant, Shen Du did not return to the main rudder in Gyeonggi, but went to several other rudders.

There are more than 20 sub-rudders in the inner and outer cities, and many of the sub-rudder chief arresters are too old, but their strength is only in the realm of three flowers, but they occupy high positions, and the people below can't see the slightest hope of promotion .

Therefore, all the policemen of the six gates in the inner and outer cities of Yanjing were dead.

Not only the vice-chief arresters, but even the red-clothed and gold-clothed arresters below were in a similar situation.

In this city of Yanjing, if you want to be promoted, you must first look at your connections and secondly look at your ability.

If you have no contacts, no matter how capable you are, you can only be buried in the streets and alleys.

It is undeniable that these old people in the six doors did have meritorious deeds when they were young, but when they got old, they lost their enterprising spirit and only thought about how to make profits for themselves.

Everyone in the world is after profit, if that's all it is, but their existence blocks the way of others.

Blocking one's future is like killing one's parents!
I don't know how many vice presidents in these sub-rudders are waiting for promotion.

Now that a promotion opportunity is in front of him, who dares to say that he is not tempted.

The people Shen Du is looking for are all people who don't have much connections and roots in Yanjing City.

Because of this, even if the position of chief arrester is vacant, it will not be their turn.

They all have resentment in their hearts!

Now there is only one fuse missing, and this conflict will be completely ignited.

And what he has to do is to ignite it.

In a whole day, Shen Du almost walked around half of Yanjing City, and also used this to get a better understanding of Yanjing City.

When Shen Du returned to the main helm of Gyeonggi, it was already nightfall.

In front of the main rudder mansion in Gyeonggi, there is a figure in white clothes standing.

Seeing Shen Du coming, he stepped forward quickly, and said respectfully: "Caomin has seen Mr. Shen!"

The moonlight is dim, but it can still be seen that the appearance of the visitor is quite a bit solemn, with a bit of the elegance of a literati.

Standing there as a whole gives people a sense of being out of the world.

Shen Du calmly said: "Just say what you want, I don't like to beat around the bush."

Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment, bent down and cupped his hands and said, "I'm Chen Xuan, a staff member of the sixth prince's residence."

"I came here today to express my apology to Mr. Shen."

"Those eunuchs are used to being arrogant and domineering on weekdays. Their words are so disrespectful. They dared to offend Mr. Shen. Please, Mr. Shen, don't blame His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince."

"My Highness is sincerely cooperating with Mr. Shen."

Shen Du looked Chen Xuan up and down, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "I thought the sixth prince was a person, but now it seems that he has someone behind him to give advice."

Chen Xuan's pupils shrank slightly.

Shen Du said bluntly: "If he is really sincere, he should be the one who came to the door today, not you!"

"Since you have such a vision, you are still loyal to him, but you are also loyal."

Chen Xuan remained silent.

He is actually very clear about the sixth prince.

What he is loyal to is not the sixth prince, but the kindness of the sixth prince's mother.

As a down-and-out literati, he almost starved to death on the street back then, but was saved by the concubine Cheng who went home to visit his relatives, and thus survived.

Although he, Chen Xuan, is a sour literati, he also understands the principle of repaying kindness.

More importantly, he is full of ambitions, but he can't display them, and he doesn't want to.

Chen Xuan cupped his hands and said, "Master Shen, it's better to settle enemies than tie them..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Du raised his hand to interrupt him, and said coldly: "I am a member of the six sects, and I only serve His Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan bowed his hands and bowed respectfully, "Lord Shen, take your leave."

After the words fell, he turned and left.

Shen Du stared at Chen Xuan who was going away, stretched out his hand and took out a bean-sized Gu worm from his bosom, and smiled softly.

……

Xu Jin quickly sent someone to release the news about the treatment of the chief helm of Gyeonggi.

Under this great interest, many people were tempted for a while.

The originally deserted main rudder in Gyeonggi suddenly became more lively, and many people came.

These people are people who have nothing to do in Yanjing City, they have no burden, and they are not afraid of revenge from their superiors.

If staying at the main helm in Gyeonggi is the same as in the sub-helms, then they will naturally not come to the main helm in Gyeonggi without much effort, but now that Shen Du has offered ten times the salary, naturally some people are tempted.

You know, many of them have thousands of taels of silver in a year, ten times the salary, that's tens of thousands of taels.

Even if the sub-rudders want to follow suit, it is difficult to do so.

There are as few as a thousand or as many as thousands of people at the helm in various places. Ten times the salary is an astronomical figure.

It's not that they can't afford it, but that they don't want to.

Many sub-ruler chief arresters are eager to squeeze the resources of the people below, so how can they give such huge profits.

At this time, in the courtyard of a certain rudder in Yanjing City.

Cheng Zhenlei and others gathered together, with some food and wine placed in front of them.

These few people are basically the chief arrestees of the two cities inside and outside Yanjing City.

All sub-rudders in the inner and outer cities are also dominated by these few people.

Holding the wine glass, Cheng Zhenlei said in a deep voice, "Everyone, you must have heard the recent news, right?"

Everyone naturally knew what Cheng Zhenlei said, if not, they would not have gathered here.

Cao Hou immediately sneered and said, "What are you afraid of? I'll go back and give orders. Don't blame me for being rude to anyone who dares to go!"

In the last battle, his arm was still not healed.

It is a beautiful idea to want to sit in this seat so smoothly!
No matter who is sitting in this seat, as long as it is not Cao Hou, he will not make him happy.

Cheng Zhenlei sighed, and said softly: "I think it's better to let it go."

"This matter is a foregone conclusion, why bother to make trouble."

From the moment he heard the news, he knew that the seventh person on the list was by no means a person who was content with the status quo.

Although he was unwilling to do so, what could he do? If he lost, he lost.

Cao Hou frowned and said, "Master Cheng, you are just too timid."

"Even Master Cui didn't say anything, what are you afraid of? If he really has a background, would he still use such a means?"

"Besides, this matter may not necessarily be a foregone conclusion."

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the people also echoed.

"Master Cheng, we are going forward and backward together, don't you have the intention to take refuge in Shen Du?"

"Even if you rely on Shen Du, what can he give you?"

"Could it be possible that he can still give up his position to you?"

Cheng Zhenlei sighed, but didn't say much.

Six doors has really changed over the years.

He knew that these people present had more or less received benefits from certain people, and the purpose was self-evident.

Let Shen Du get out of Gyeonggi!
Because someone else was looking for him.

Cao Hou laughed and toasted: "Come on, come on, keep drinking!"

Just when the few people were about to have a drink, a policeman suddenly walked in outside, cupped his hands and said: "Master Cheng, Mr. Shen, please come to the house and tell me."

Cao Hou frowned, and asked in a dissatisfied tone: "What did you say?"

The person who came shook his head and said, "I don't know, the sender only said that he wanted to see Mr. Cheng."

Cao Hou said impatiently: "Just say that you are busy with business and don't have time to see you!"

"Wait!"

Cheng Zhenlei got up and said, "I'd better go and see you."

"After all, he is our boss now, so I won't lose my tongue."

Marquis Cao frowned slightly, and said with a sneer, "Disappointment!"

In his opinion, Cheng Zhenlei is obviously too timid and timid, no wonder his age is too high or too low.

Cheng Zhenlei left the room and drove all the way to Gyeonggi Headquarters.

Entering the front hall, seeing Shen Du sitting upright on top, Cheng Zhenlei cupped his hands and said, "I've seen you, my lord!"

Shen Du smiled all over his face: "Master Cheng, you are welcome, please sit down!"

Cheng Zhenlei sat down beside him, and said in a deep voice, "I don't know if my lord has called the officer here, but what's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Shen Du smiled and said, "Master Cheng left a deep impression on me during the battle that day."

"In the whole of Beijing, except for a few headhunters in the Yuanshen Realm, Mr. Cheng is the strongest, right?"

Cheng Zhenlei was puzzled, but he couldn't understand what Shen Du really meant.

Call him here just to praise him?
"My lord has praised me, but my strength is still much worse."

He didn't say a word, if he was really strong, how could he lose to you.

Shen Du smiled, took a sip of the tea, sat on the seat, and stopped talking.

Cheng Zhenlei hesitated to speak several times.

After half an hour, Cheng Zhenlei couldn't help asking: "My lord, what else is there?"

"Oh?" Shen Du seemed to come back to his senses suddenly, and said with a smile, "It's all right, Mr. Cheng can leave now."

Cheng Zhenlei was stunned for a moment, feeling displeased, but he still didn't say anything after all, just got up and left.

……

When they returned to the sub-rule yard, everyone hadn't left yet. Seeing Cheng Zhenlei, one of them asked with a smile: "Master Cheng, what does Master Shen want you for? You have been chatting for a long time."

It seems unintentional, but it is intentional!
For nearly an hour, excluding the time spent on the road, the two chatted for at least half an hour.

Cheng Zhenlei shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything."

The smiles on everyone's faces gradually disappeared.

Cao Houyi pointed out: "Master Cheng is unwilling to tell us."

Cao Hou squinted at Cheng Zhenlei, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

Cheng Zhenlei sighed, and said helplessly, "It's true that I didn't say anything."

"I just sat there for half an hour."

Everyone sneered secretly.

After sitting for half an hour, do you really think they will believe this kind of nonsense?

At this moment, another policeman came from outside, and said in a deep voice: "My lords, another person has been sent from the capital rudder, saying that Mr. Shen has invited Mr. Huo to come to the house."

In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to a person in the corner.

A man with a scar at the corner of his eye was full of surprise.

"Find me?"

This person's name is Huo Wei, and he is also a master of the harmony between man and nature.

The last time he competed for the chief arrester of Gyeonggi, he lost his qualifications due to insufficient merit.

He didn't have any intersection with that Shen Du.

Huo Wei pondered for a moment, stood up and said with a smile: "Everyone, wait a moment, I'll go and see what's going on first."

Originally, he didn't plan to go, but with Cheng Zhenlei's incident, he wanted to see what the chief arrester wanted to do.

Huo Wei left the table, got into the carriage, and left straight away.

Stepping into the main rudder of Gyeonggi, walking all the way into the front hall, the first thing you see is a big box in the hall.

Wearing a black robe, Shen Du looked calm and indifferent, and was slowly wiping the Xueyin Kuangdao in his hand.

A pair of cold eyes are reflected on the bright knife body, the eyes are like bright stars.

Shen Du raised his eyes, landed on Huo Wei, and said with a light smile, "Master Huo, please sit down!"

Huo Wei didn't sit down, but cupped his hands casually, and said indifferently: "Master Shen, I don't know if you called me here, what's the matter?"

Shen Du smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just want to make friends with Mr. Huo."

"I'm the chief arrester of Gyeonggi for the first time. I don't understand many things, and I still need the help of seniors like Mr. Huo."

Huo Wei frowned slightly, and a trace of surprise and suspicion flashed in his eyes.

What does this guy mean?
Shen Du smiled and said: "With a few gifts, I will be my official and make friends with Mr. Huo."

Hearing this, Xu Jin on the side immediately opened the box in the hall.

Huo Wei's pupils shrank slightly.

Looking at a box full of gold, silver and jewels, even Huo Wei couldn't help being startled at this moment.

This is not a small sum.

Huo Wei glanced at Shen Du again, hesitantly said: "My lord, this..."

Shen Du said with a faint smile, "A greeting gift!"

Regarding the information about this Huo Wei, he had known for a long time that this person was extremely greedy for money.

On weekdays, he was crazily accumulating money, and even withheld the resources issued by the headquarters.

The important thing is that this person was originally supported by the third prince.

Huo Wei's eyes were full of fire, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, my lord!"

Take advantage of nothing, don't take advantage of it, don't take it for nothing!

Huo Wei sneered in his heart, did he know that he was greedy for money, so he deliberately lured him with gold and silver?

Since they are all delivered to your door, there is naturally no reason not to take them.

As for letting him cooperate?

That's impossible.

Coincidentally, I will teach him a truth today, the human heart is sinister!

As long as he doesn't admit it, who knows that he has received something?
Shen Du smiled all over his face.

"My lord, if there is nothing else to do, I will leave as an officer."

Huo Wei bid farewell.

Shen Du nodded slightly, watching Huo Wei leave, a coldness suddenly flashed in his eyes, the smile on his face disappeared little by little, the way he looked at Huo Wei was like looking at a dead person.

……

Huo Wei couldn't wait to return to the sub-helm, pushed the door in, and laughed loudly: "Haha! I didn't expect that there are really people who are taken advantage of in this world!"

Cao Hourao said with interest: "Master Huo, what's the good thing about this?"

Huo Wei didn't shy away from it, and told about the affairs of the main helm in Gyeonggi.

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter, as if they were mocking Shen Du's ignorance.

However, Marquis Cao's gaze suddenly turned to Cheng Zhenlei, playing with taste: "Master Cheng, what benefits have you received, why not tell us about it."

For more than half an hour, how can you really not say anything?
Even Huo Wei has benefited, Cheng Zhenlei really has no benefit at all?

Cheng Zhenlei was stunned.

He is not a stupid person, he thought everything through in an instant, and cursed inwardly.

mean!

Shameless!
Before leaving, Cheng Zhenlei's mind recalled Shen Du's half-smile expression, wishing he could rush over and punch him right now.

Cheng Zhenlei said helplessly: "He really didn't tell me anything."

Seeing everyone's expressions, he was a little crazy.

Cao Hou sneered, and said coldly: "Master Cheng, I hope you can understand what should be said and what should not be said."

"Since you have taken refuge with that guy, don't blame us for being rude in the future."

Everyone originally believed in Cheng Zhenlei, but when Huo Wei came back, he brought a box of jewels with him, which made it hard for people not to doubt him.

But Cheng Zhenlei insisted that he and Shen Du didn't say anything, which was even more suspicious.

Cheng Zhenlei's heart sank suddenly, it was clear that it was a divorce, and he also knew that this misunderstanding might not be explained clearly.

He felt inexplicably cold.

scary guy!
