Gu Junwen racked her brains but couldn't figure it out. Of course, since her mind was full of ways to delay her starting date, it was natural that she couldn't figure it out.
"Sir, don't think about it. Come, apply the medicine."
Shen Anan handed over the bitter medicine that sounded like a basket of coptis root, and watched Gu Junwen drink it "obediently" before she put away the tape and rope in her hand with satisfaction.
"Okay." Gu Junwen put down the medicine bowl.
"Don't worry, sir, we still need to apply medicine. You struggled too hard yesterday, come, we must apply medicine today." Shen Anan took out a medicine bottle with a red cloth stopper.
"I'll do it myself." Gu Junwen hugged his quilt tightly.
The secret cannot be discovered. She has kept it secret for three years with great difficulty and cannot let it go to waste.
"No room for negotiation." Shen Anan reached out to pull the quilt with a fake smile.
"Stop, stop, stop!" Gu Junwen strategically moved back, grimacing in pain, "Chen An'an! You are a girl, a grown-up girl! Men and women should not be intimate with each other, do you understand? I'll do it myself."
System 101 was cracking melon seeds in the void, watching the fun. He had no sense of being a spectator, and would occasionally say, "Host, stop making excuses. You're just afraid of pain."
"Shut up." Gu Junwen could no longer bear it, and there was no need to endure it anymore. He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, making 101 fly thousands of miles away.
At this time, Shen Anan finally stopped. She was not in a hurry and smiled at Gu Junwen, which made Gu Junwen shudder.
"Sir, how could I not understand you? Come on, everyone come in." Shen Anan clapped her hands, and a group of people filed in, leaving Gu Junwen dumbfounded.
"Sir, these are the guards my father selected for you from the northern frontier. Look, there are short ones, tall ones, fat ones, thin ones, old ones, young ones...any one of them can apply medicine for you."
Shen Anan put her hands on her hips and looked at Gu Junwen proudly.
His face was full of the expression: Little guy, I can’t cure you.
Finally, after Gu Junwen jumped up and down to avoid applying medicine for a few days, the imperial physician who came to visit the patient stroked his white beard with relief and announced a good news to everyone.
In short, after the old doctor had been talking for a long time, Gu Junwen summed it up in six words, which was very simple: "She can go to work now."
This was like a bolt from the blue for a salted fish.
Even the priceless consolation gifts sent from time to time by Emperor Mingde, Empress Su, Princess Wuyou, the eldest prince, the second prince and the third prince could not fill Gu Junwen's broken heart.
She doesn't want to be a worker, she doesn't want to punch in at work.
How can a quilt be as comfortable as a salary? How can a 9-to-5 job with a leisurely schedule be as good as...
Wait, she can!
Isn't it just a matter of changing places to continue to be a slacker? She thinks she is doing it again!
Gu Junwen took some time out of his busy schedule to learn about the current situation in the officialdom of the Qisheng Dynasty.
The Qisheng Dynasty had four departments in the criminal department, each with its own duties. The heads of the four departments were all fourth-rank officials among the nine-rank officials.
The position is not high-ranking and there is not much work to do.
Simensi, as the name suggests, means to be in charge of the affairs of the gate.
After several generations of reforms during the reign of Emperor Qisheng, the Simensi had become a minor position responsible only for searching for lost items, keeping prison doors and various non-important entrance halls.
In Gu Junwen's words: it is a combination of a gatekeeper and a key manager.
"Sure enough, we have similar tastes and auras with you, the host." System 101 was also very moved after following Gu Junwen to visit her future office space.
"Of course." Gu Junwen touched the table and the chair as if he had met someone new and treated him as cordially as if he were an old friend.
"Tongtong, this chair is very comfortable, suitable for sleeping. Hey, this table is not bad, you can put a few more plates of melon seeds and nuts on it. It would be better if you can provide some storybooks and picture albums."
Gu Junwen stretched, and his butt seemed to be stuck to the chair and he couldn't get up.
As the head of the Simen Division, she had an easy life. She was not responsible for major matters, and she was not needed for minor matters.
Every day, he would check in, get some sleep, eat some snacks, and watch the officials from various departments put the keys into the warehouse, and then he would get a lot of salary.
If he encountered a superior official coming to inspect, Gu Junwen would pretend to walk around the community.
She patted Soldier A on the shoulder and told him, "Come on, I'm counting on you."
Someone pretended to look seriously at the cleaning clerk B and encouraged him earnestly: "Work hard, young man, you have a bright future ahead of you."
This series of operations was so impressive that even the old veterans who have been in the officialdom for many years could not help but give a thumbs up in admiration.
The waves of the Yangtze River push each other forward, each wave stronger than the last.
Xianyu lay down, Gu Junwen ranked second, and no one dared to say that they were first.
In the first month after Gu Junwen took office, the efficiency of the Ministry of Justice did not improve, but the food expenses of the Ministry continued to rise.
So, starting from the second month, Gu Junwen noticed that his superiors’ inspections were becoming more and more frequent.
These people didn't seem to be checking. As soon as they entered the Ministry of Justice, they went straight to her office. Gu Junwen was so scared that she ran around the Ministry of Justice every day with half-eaten melon seeds in her hand.
However, thanks to these sports experiences, Gu Junwen knew exactly where in the Ministry of Justice was suitable for hiding, where were the blind spots, and where it was easy to escape.
It was another day, and with a rare moment of free time, Gu Junwen slumped in her seat as usual.
"Tongtong, do you think it's better to eat almonds today? Or cashews?" Gu Junwen leaned on the table with his face supported by his hands, staring at the two plates of nuts, hesitant.
The question made System 101 sigh repeatedly: "Host, when will you do something serious?"
"Then let's eat both!" Gu Junwen slapped the table and made the decision happily.
Taking a bite of cashews on the left and a bite of almonds on the right, Gu Junwen stuffed his mouth full and closed his eyes in enjoyment.
"Sir, this is bad!"
