Chapter 34 New Official Takes Office



Early the next morning.

Chen Yu got up early, washed up thoroughly, and walked out.

His destination was the Mingjingsi government office.

"I don't know what the Mirror Division looks like."

With curiosity, Chen Yu walked along the way.

But the further he walked, the uglier his expression became.

Because as time went by, he had reached the edge of the royal capital and was almost about to walk out of it.

Finally, I found Mingjingsi in a dilapidated alley.

Standing at the gate, Chen Yu looked around and his eyes twitched.

On both sides of the door, two majestic stone lions stand there quietly.

But one of them had a broken claw.

The other one was missing half its head.

There were a few wild dogs on the roadside. They walked to the stone lion, lifted their hind legs and urinated.

Judging from his skilled look, this is definitely not the first time he has done this.

Above the gate, the gold-plated characters on the plaque have completely faded, and some of the strokes have fallen off.

A lot of the red paint on the door had fallen off, revealing a mottled base color.

"My God, how can this be the majestic Mingjingsi? If you say it's a beggars' den, no one would have the slightest doubt."

Beside Chen Yu, a scholar stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes.

This man's name is Chen Chen. He has been studying for many years, but because he does not know how to flatter others, his career is not smooth.

He lives next to Chen Yu's house.

Ever since Chen Yu accomplished several great things, he has admired Chen Yu very much and insisted on following Chen Yu as a little follower.

Seeing his personality, Chen Yu thought that he should be someone who could offend others.

Since you can offend others, you can increase your chances of committing suicide.

After some consideration, Chen Yu took him by his side and made him his follower.

"This is the Mirror Bureau? It's even more dilapidated than I imagined."

Chen Yu shook his head, feeling a little emotional.

Although I have never actually seen the Mingjing Division, according to previous records, the Mingjing Division is an absolutely majestic place.

The geographical location is also in the core circle of the royal capital.

It’s not like now, I’ve been driven to a place like this?

"It has indeed declined. I'm afraid that many people in Daqin now don't even know about the Mingjingsi."

Shaking his head, Chen Yu pushed the door open and entered, followed closely by Shen Chen.

Crunch...

The sound of the door opening had a sense of decay.

After Chen Yu entered, the door of the room slammed shut.

All around, figures walked out from the darkness, their eyes fixed on Mingjingsi.

The sarcastic smiles on their faces were not concealed at all.

"Haha, it's the first day for Master Mingjing on the job. I wonder what he thinks after seeing this environment?"

One of them twirled his beard lightly and spoke with a smile.

The others beside them immediately laughed.

"Did you see what he looked like just now? That expression was truly remarkable."

One person imitated Chen Yu's shocked expression, which caused another round of laughter.

"Haha, this scene, compared with his appearance in the court yesterday, is truly comforting."

Yesterday, Chen Yu declared in the court that he wanted to have some fun with them, which made many people angry.

You are just a kid, do you really think you can compare with them?

After all these years, I still can’t beat a young guy like you?

How naive.

That is why they followed here today, wanting to see what Chen Yu looks like.

Sure enough, Chen Yu did not disappoint them.

"Forget it, there's no point in wasting time here. Everyone, let's go to Tingchao Yaju for a few drinks."

"That's the old site of the Mingjing Division. Many colleagues are drinking there today. Watching the girls dance is a unique experience."

Several people's eyes lit up and a satisfied smile appeared on their lips.

"Haha, that's great, let's go together!"

The group got on the carriage and left with smiles on their faces.

. . . . . .

Inside the Mingjing Division.

Chen Yu stood at the door, looking at the scene in the yard, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

The scene inside the courtyard was even more dilapidated than I had imagined.

There were dead branches and leaves on the ground, and broken stones scattered everywhere.

The doors and windows of many rooms are broken.

And in such a yard, several people were sitting in different places, looking at Chen Yu with some surprise.

A burly man in a sleeveless shirt with a broken knife on his back.

A young man, wearing a green robe, with a pair of dead fish eyes that are very irritating.

A silent boy hugged his knees with his hands, just glanced at Chen Yu, then looked down at the ants under his feet.

There was also an old man, holding a wine gourd in his arms, lying on the broken steps, squinting his eyes in the sun.

"Hey, there's a newcomer? Tsk tsk, boy, are you here for the Mirror Division too?"

The burly man looked at Chen Yu, raised his eyebrows, and asked curiously.

"Are you from the Mingjing Division? How dare you speak to Master Chen like that!?"

Chen Chen took a step forward, raised his head and shouted.

But the others just raised their eyelids and then looked away again.

"Haha, you are a newcomer indeed." The strong man shook his head.

"Adults? There are no adults here. There is only garbage thrown into the garbage dump."

"You, me, and them, we're all the same. We're all garbage, so what's the point of talking about adults?"

The burly man spoke, his expression showing a hint of sadness and anger, but it disappeared in an instant.

Who among the people here is not a loyal minister serving the motherland?

But in the end, he was thrown here because he was ostracized.
