Four Symbols City.

Sheriff's Mansion.

When Goushi entered the hall, Mickey, who was working inside, raised his head and motioned for him to sit down.

"How is the situation with your brother?" Mickey said slowly.

Her fishing plan was to use the bait of Hook Shi's brother to lure those people to show up and take the bait.

"My brother Gou Baitong has already contacted them, but there are no clues now."

Gou Shi told Gou Baitong everything that happened after he went to Dongguo Mansion.

He couldn't figure out what was special about it.

Rong Dou, the chief steward of Dongguo Mansion, just asked Gou Baitong to sign a contract and gave him a job.

My job is to deliver letters, so there is nothing wrong with that.

"You can't tell the difference, it's normal."

"Because there is no problem at all."

Mickey picked up the teacup, took a sip, and cleared her throat.

"No problem?" This time, I was even more confused.

Is the big housekeeper Rong Dou out of his mind? He lets people make money for no reason.

"He has only one purpose, and that is to establish a relationship with you through your brother." Mickey narrowed her eyes.

"Get involved with me, but I won't do anything to harm the government."

Hook shook his head and said.

"You will do it sooner or later. This is just the first step for them. Do you think they use direct money to lure people into trouble? They have no longer used that kind of bad method." Mi Qi said lightly.

As a deputy commander of the hidden guards, Mickey has long known many tricks to lure people into trouble, and it is by no means that simple.

"What do I do now?"

I don't know what will happen next.

"Pretend you don't know anything and wait for their next move..."

"Don't worry, they won't hurt you or your brother."

"We have also sent people to protect your family members in nearby villages and towns. You don't have to worry about anything. You can act according to your usual life trajectory and do whatever you need to do."

Mickey warned.

"Okay, then I won't care." Gou Shi nodded.

…

Returning to his work place, Gongmen Yong, who was sitting nearby, looked at Gou Shi with a very envious look.

"I've been looking for you a lot lately. It seems like you're going to be promoted to a more important position."

Gongmenyong said with a smile.

"Promote? How else can we be promoted? We are all officials. By being able to do what we do, this official has already accumulated virtues from his ancestors and burned incense for countless generations. If he goes up to the next level, he is an official. Scholars like us will be elected consecutively.

If you have no identity, how can you become an official?"

After Goushi sat down, he said disapprovingly.

What he said was true.

There is a big difference between officials and officials. Unless there are very special circumstances, it is difficult for ordinary officials to become officials.

Among them, the biggest threshold is the identity of the candidate.

If you can't pass the imperial examination, you don't have to think about anything like becoming an official.

"Yes, we people can't become officials, no matter how beautifully we manage things."

Gou Shi's words reached his heart, and Gongmen Yong sighed.

"It's okay to ask for some money. Let's do the work well. How can Mr. Qiu be stingy with some money?"

Gou Shi was open-minded. If he couldn't pass the examination, he never thought about becoming an official. Now he can live such a life, which is already good. The life is prosperous. If it weren't for his younger brother who hindered him, he would really be fine.

trouble.

Gu QiWhen working in the yamen, one word is "stable".

As long as they do their best and act according to their ability, no matter who the governor is, it will not have much impact on them.

"Then work hard."

"Look over there, there's a bunch of information coming back, all from the hidden guards."

Gongmen Yong pointed to the pile of materials that had just been delivered.

"I'm going to be busy again. I thought I could rest for a few days."

Gou Shi said.

Hidden guards generally only collect intelligence. They usually do not specifically process and analyze this intelligence. Instead, they hand it over to the people in the government who need it and have it handled by specialized officials.

"This information!"

When he hooked up, his eyes suddenly tightened.

He saw the value of this information.

"What? Is there any problem?" Gongmen Yong asked casually while sorting out other information.

"Only the two of us have seen this information. No one else has seen it, right?"

Gou Shi said.

"Wrong, you should be the only one who has seen this place for the time being. These are sealed with fire paint and are highly confidential information. Generally, I don't read it. You are the only one who can read it. After reading it, file it and hand it over to the county guard.

It’s a rule.”

Gongmen Yong said in surprise.

"I know the rules. I just asked casually. This information cannot be leaked." Gou Shi said.

"It's normal. How much of the information entrusted to you can be leaked out casually? If something goes wrong, no one will be able to take responsibility."

Gongmen Yong still remembered what happened a few days ago. Someone had set up a spying device in their room. Fortunately, someone found it, otherwise they would have been unable to defend themselves.

"Yes, it's fine as long as no one has seen it." Gou Shi didn't speak at first, just sorting out his head.

After he finished sorting it out, he quickly wrote down some of the essential points on a few pages.

Then, he got up and ran towards the study where Governor Qiu Muliang was.

On weekdays, Qiu Muliang works in his study room.

After entering the study room, he saw Qiu Muliang sitting in front of the desk and busy.

In recent days, Qiu Muliang has not gone out to play for a long time.

A few years ago, when Sixiang City was stable, Qiu Muliang liked to write and write. He gathered a group of literati and gathered in many places of interest in Sixiang City. He published several collections of poems.

Qiu Muliang was a serious Jinshi, and he had a deep understanding of poetry and prose. He was also quite accomplished in calligraphy and painting. His poetry and prose coupled with his status bonus, he was quite famous in Daqi.

"Gou Shi, do you have any important information?" Qiu Muliang raised his head and smiled slightly.

Gou Shi is his right-hand man and an important subordinate.

"Information from Bozhou." Gou Shi spoke concisely and comprehensively.

"Bring it to me and let me see it."

Autumn evening said coolly.

What was given to him during the hookup were several pages of organized information, and the important information was already in them.

Qiu Muliang looked at it and narrowed his eyes.

The water in Banshu is very deep.

It is by no means as simple as hundreds of thousands of troops on the surface.

In this Banshu, there are actually forces from Yajili, northwest Persia, and even Japanese forces.

Now, among the largest four forces in Daqi, the Black Lotus Sect has kept a low profile and no longer openly confronts the imperial court.

Now there are the other three parties, Beili, Bozhou Yang Family, and the Rebel Han. The rebel forces are compressed in the northeast and cannot advance any further. Moreover, the rebel group has been corrupted very quickly recently, and their prospects are looking bleak.
