The army purchases have strict procedures. Usually, the General of the Left Guard reported to the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War reported to the three provinces and requested the court to allocate funds to purchase as needed. After the officials of the three provinces and six ministries agreed, the following text will be approved and approved by the General of the Left Guard, and then the General of the Left Guard will send the official letter of purchase to the lower-level officials for execution.

First, the head of the procurement is responsible for purchasing, and needs to convene merchants to investigate and bid. Secondly, the quality of the sample of the purchased substance is understood. After roughly determining the target and price of the merchants to purchase, the head of the supervisor will report it step by step and report to the General Office of the Left Guard, and the General will then approve it from top to bottom.

The purchasing process is very complicated and complicated. It has to be handled by many officials in the middle. Each level of officials has the power to reject it, and of course it also has the power to agree. When the list falls into Gu Qing's hands, the purchasing process is actually almost over. If Gu Qing agrees, he only needs to report the list to the General of the Left Guard and the General of the Left Guard. After several generals discuss it, he will report it to the General, and this matter is completed.

The 100,000 yuan cryptocurrency of embezzlement funds secretly gave Gu Qing 2,000 yuan, which was in line with the market price. After all, the 100,000 yuan cryptocurrency of the cryptocurrency was not taken by one person, and there must be many officials who shared the cryptocurrency together.

According to the current price of the Tang Dynasty, this is a huge sum of money. The house where Gu Qing lives now is about 200 cents. Just sign a name on the list, Gu Qing can earn ten houses in Chang'an overnight.

Who has ever said that "living in Chang'an is not easy"?

He has the right in hand, no matter how difficult it is, it is not a big deal. Unfortunately, Gu Qing dared not take on this deal. First of all, he was afraid of taking responsibility and fearing that the truth was revealed. Secondly, he did not know who the person behind him was. He was worried that he would be involved in the faction inexplicably. Under the current situation, it would be unwise for Gu Qing to choose to stand in which camp. Only when he was independent and isolated and helpless can he attract Li Longji's attention and be valued by him.

Looking at Li Guangbi's expression at this moment, Gu Qing found that he was also a person who had never been bribed, otherwise he would not have been so angry.

"Uncle Li, is this list... signed and reported?" Gu Qing asked tentatively.

Li Guangbi looked hesitant. Li Guangbi was not so straightforward in being a person and being an official. He still abides by the basic rules of the game, otherwise he would not be able to become the General of Zuo Lang, equivalent to the deputy commander.

But this time the relationship was too big and the amount was too big. Obviously, the rules of the game were destroyed by others first, and Li Guangbi was hesitating whether to continue to abide by it.

"Gu Qing, what do you think?" Li Guangbi asked.

Gu Qing shook his head and said, "My nephew thinks that this matter cannot be agreed."

“Tell me.”

"First of all, the people behind did not show up. I don't know which god dared to act so recklessly. If we agree, we will easily be involved in the court faction. Those who dare to make such an excessive list must be famous figures in the court, Donggong, Li Xiang, and Yang Guozhong. It is probably these factions. No matter which faction this person is, it is not a good thing for us..."

"Secondly, there is no secret in the officialdom that can be hidden forever. If something happens, it will be easy to find us if we trace the list. If something happens to the person who makes the list, we will be implicated. If there is no relative or reason, why should we take the blame for him? Even if he doesn't have any trouble, if we sign it, it means that we have personally given someone a handle, and we can do whatever we want in the future, and we will be coerced for the rest of our lives..."

Gu Qing shook his head, pointed to the list and sighed: "Games should not be played like this. I will not talk about the basic rules anymore. How to continue playing with him?"

Li Guangbi looked at him and gradually smiled in his eyes: "I can't tell that you are young, but your mind is quite calm and sophisticated. You can see such a long-term thing from a list. Gu Qing, you are born to be an official and better than your parents."

Gu Qing glanced at him and said slowly: "I heard that most of the officials are shameless. Uncle Li is calling me shameless?"

"I'm praising you, why can't I hear any good things? Aren't I an official too?" Li Guangbi glared at him angrily.

After putting away the list, Li Guangbi said: "Don't worry about this list, I'll take care of it."

Gu Qing shook his head: "Uncle Li, I'm afraid my nephew will be unable to keep it alone. The list is in my hands. If I don't sign the custody, I can't go on this process. People standing behind Zhu Qi will definitely come to me."

Li Guangbi sneered: "Then let him come to me, just say that I won't let you sign the custody."

Gu Qing looked at him and said slowly: "Uncle Li, I am also a man. Have you been hiding under the wings of my elders for the rest of my life? Every time something happens, I have to help me. How many times can your old friend relationship with my parents be worn out?"

Li Guangbi looked at him in surprise and said in a deep voice: "Just based on what you said, I can help you for the rest of your life."

Gu Qing smiled: "It is better to begging for yourself than asking others. The eagle has the power to fight in the sky. It is not its elders, but its own strong wings."

…………

The list was still taken away by Gu Qing, and he decided to face the trouble alone.

In the next few days, Gu Qing still handled official duties as usual, but he put the list on hold and did not sign or reject it, so he thought it was not true.

On the evening of the fourth day, Gu Qing had just returned home from the left guard when Butler Xu came up and told him hesitantly that a guest had been waiting for him for an afternoon and sat in the front hall waiting for him to come back.

Gu Qing was quite surprised and went straight to the front hall. He saw three people sitting in the front hall, two of which were Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing. The two shopkeepers were accompanying the guests. They were having a happy chat, while the guests were very polite. Gu Qing had never seen them.

He was about forty years old, with a pale complexion, a slight eyebrow and a slight look on his lips, giving people a treacherous look.

This is the first time Gu Qing saw someone's face clearly writing the word "bad guy" on his face. He couldn't help but be amazed. At the same time, he felt that his unhappy appearance was simply a handsome guy with a crowd of people compared to him.

Seeing Gu Qing come in, Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing tactfully left after seeing each other, with only the guest and Gu Qing left in the front hall.

This person sat in the front hall, wearing regular clothes. Gu Qing didn't know the details, but he still politely stepped forward to greet him.

The guest's attitude was also very polite, and he stood up and saluted and introduced himself.

"I'm surnamed Ji, named Wen, and I'm a doctor from the Ministry of Revenue. I'll pay a visit to Gu Changshi."

Gu Qing's face did not change, but his heart was filled with a bell.

Ji Wen, a famous cruel official during the Tianbao period, was cruel and ruthless and cruel by nature. In short, four words can summarize this person, which is "absolutely not a good person."

This man's official position is not important, but his resume is worthy of vigilance. He was originally just a small county magistrate, but later he joined the right prime minister Li Linfu and promoted to the Jingzhao Prefecture Scholar Cao, becoming Li Linfu's front pawn. Under the instructions of Li Linfu, he participated in many conspiracies to frame court officials to eliminate dissidents.

When Li Linfu's political enemies fall into his hands, they are often worse than death. Together with another cruel official named "Luo Xisi", the two were collectively called "Luo Pin Ji Net" by the government and the public, which means that after Luo Xisi took the people, he pinched him tightly like a crab's pliers, while Ji Wen was like a big net. Any enemy he was targeted by him was like a fish falling into the net, and he could not escape.

Gu Qing couldn't help but respond with such a cruel and ruthless person.

"It turns out that he is Doctor Ji, who has been admired for a long time." Gu Qing bowed and smiled.

Ji Wen smiled and said, "Have Gu Changshi heard of me?"

Gu Qing shook his head and nodded again: "I haven't known Jing, but I have heard of it."

Ji Wen smiled and said, "I'm afraid that what Gu Changshi heard was not a good reputation, right?"

Gu Qing frowned. This man spoke so sharply.

Ji Wenhun smiled indifferently and said, "The world misunderstood me too many times. Some people in the court always call me a cruel official, saying that I am ruthless and use any means. I have become accustomed to it over the years and are even more lazy to justify it. Those who are pure will be clear, so why bother with idle people's words?"

Gu Qing's smile remained unchanged. He heard the taste of these words, which meant that I was a cruel person, very cruel, so I asked if you were afraid.

First show it with power, then the reason will be smoother.

It was a coincidence that Gu Qing lived for two lifetimes and was also a stingy person. Everyone’s attributes were basically the same, so Gu Qing was never afraid of how cruel and vicious others were.

Take out the long-lasting list from your arms and gently put it on the table. Gu Qing stretched out two fingers to hold it down and slowly pushed it forward.

"Let's get straight to the point. Doctor Yoshiki came today, probably for this."

Gu Qing had heard of Ji Wen's reputation. He was so mean to others, but he still cared for himself very much.

This person is very greedy and very greedy. The consequences in history are ultimately due to corruption.

Ji Wen was quite surprised by Gu Qing's honesty. He spoke in the officialdom with implicit words. It is rare to put things on the table like Gu Qing. Ji Wen didn't even look at the list. He already knew Gu Qing's attitude.

"Gu Changshi is a happy person, so I won't go around the circle. This list of Gu Changshi shouldn't have been signed, right?"

"No sign."

Ji Wen stared into his eyes and said, "Why? Do you think you have earned too little? Gu Changshi can say a number, and I will give it to you with all my words."

Gu Qing smiled a little coldly: "No, I'm just afraid of death."

Ji Wen's eyes turned cold: "Gu Changshi is afraid something happened? I can guarantee that something will happen. This list... is not something I did."

This sentence is still very subtle, but the meaning is very straightforward. Ji Wen is not the person in charge. There are big figures behind him. You can imagine how powerful the power is. If you buy something small, you will never have any problems.

Gu Qing knows who is behind Ji Wen.

When Ji Wen was just a county magistrate, he started his career by clinging to Li Linfu. So, the biggest beneficiary of this list was naturally Li Linfu.

With a secret smile, Gu Qing wanted to resign and go home.

Why does Li Linfu always involve him every time something happens? Is he incompatible with his natural horoscope?
