Chapter 244 Nan Lianzi
"Boom" Lightning flashed, and the heavy rain fell, dispersing the last crowd still on the street. However, the two people who were sleeping peacefully were not awakened. The girl shrank down and found a warm embrace, which stabilized again.
In the fog, there was lightning faintly, as if it was raining.
Ye Qing came to a place in a trance and looked back. Zhou Ling was holding a pile of paper-cuts.
"Why did Lingling come in?"
She just smiled and followed her in a daze.
Ye Qing held her hand and walked around. This was another long dream.
This small town is not crowded, but it seems to be under its own jurisdiction and has a kind of friendly aura. There is a dense forest outside, and a big river flows through nearby. From the city, two generals train soldiers in the military camp, and a few scholars are busy in the county government.
Before I knew it, I arrived in my yard and felt a little familiar. Ye Qing was stunned for a moment and recalled - Isn't this the Meiyuan?
Under Xiaoxuan’s window, several maids were doing housework and chatting: “Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Gan have gone to burn incense. Haven’t you come back yet?”
"I just saw it..."
In a trance, I was in the dark, and the curtains were penetrated in the heavy rain, blowing the window paper to the point of being bulging and concave.
After Cao Gong defeated Shao, he attacked the first lord from the south. The first lord sent Mi Zhu. Sun Gan and Liu Biao heard about each other and greeted him from the suburbs. The guests treated him with courtesy and treated him with more and more troops, and sent him to station in Xinye. The heroes of Jingzhou returned to the first lord. More and more people were suspicious of his heart and Yin resisted him.
This article flowed through my heart. Ye Qing sat steadily, staring at an official in front of him with a faint emotion: "I always keep my body away from my saddle, my hair and flesh are gone, and the veteran is coming, but my achievements are not built, so I am sad."
"Recalling the past, my failure to build is due to the county magistrate of Anxi County. At that time, if I hadn't beat the General Supervisor of Zhongshan and abandoned my official position and ran away, how could I was wasting my time?"
Zhang Fei whipped the Supervisor of Zhongshan, which was a joke. In fact, Liu Bei was unruly at that time, and personally whipped the Supervisor of Zhongshan, and had to run away.
The civil servant said nothing to the lord's words, but he agreed in his heart.
Liu Bei made great contributions to quelling the uprising and became the county magistrate of Anxi County, Zhongshan, Jizhou. This was the time when the army was stationed, but because of his temporary intention, he missed this opportunity and it would be difficult to have time to station the army in peace. Although he was transferred to Gaotang County, Qingzhou Pingyuan Guo, and was soon promoted to Gaotang County Magistrate, there was no fundamental reason.
Gaotang County was captured by the Yellow Turbans, and Liu Bei defected to the Central Army General Gongsun Zan, or the magistrate of Pingyuan Kingdom, Qingzhou, and later promoted to Pingyuan Prime Minister, all of which were deeply hindered by people.
It can be said that none of them have established a system that belongs entirely to their own, so they wander around and cannot seize opportunities many times, especially in Xuzhou.
If the lord was "Anye adapted" when he was a county magistrate in Anxi County, he would have to go all the way, and he would have a firm grasp of the situation when he entered Xuzhou and then compete with Cao.
Instead of now, I have to risk Liu Biao's suspicion, train soldiers, recruit heroes, and expand my reputation - this book can be completed in Anxi County.
Ye Qing's eyes flashed: "Some things should be avoided, and some things should be done even if they are at the risk of being harmed by swords and axes. This is the establishment."
"Just do it, I will take care of it if you have something to do." Ye Qing looked at the dark rainy night outside and said lightly.
In a daze, on a boat, I saw the river dark, curling like smoke, and inexplicably sadness surged into my heart. I felt mixed emotions.
Ye Qing felt a little moved and wanted to go in, but the whole dream swayed and the scene was broken. He immediately understood and took Zhou Ling's hand and walked away.
Suddenly, dark fog rose again, and someone called out: "Fellow Taoist, please stay."
"This is a bit familiar, why does it sound like this inauspicious?" Ye Qing frowned. Not only did he collapse in the darkness, but he also had a sense of intuition in his heart.
He took Zhou Ling's hand and walked through this foggy barrier without leaving any steps. He woke up instantly, and couldn't sleep at this time, lying quietly, recalling his dreams.
This dream is not unfamiliar, but I am a little confused. I was still in a trance in my dream before, but this time I had some Qingming prophets. Why is this?
It was raining outside the window, the tent was silent, and the girl's warm breath was blowing on her neck. The green snail rain device was slightly bright but short. It was not a picture of the rain, but it was mostly because she hated that the clouds were boring and chatted with him.
Ye Qing didn't bother to read the message, touched the cloth bag on the side of the bed, and took out the sealed soil.
The earth's breath came from the cool soil. Under the pull of the qi, the fruit felt a trace of seeping into it, and there was a mutation inside. He held it in his hand and laughed silently.
It seems that it is indeed feasible
Another lightning flashed through the night sky outside the window.
"Young Master?" Zhou Ling opened his eyes to look at him and muttered vaguely: "I dreamed of you again."
"It's okay." Ye Qing said, "Go to sleep and go home tomorrow."
"Okay" she calmed down and gradually fell asleep again.
Sleeping in this place, the magician group searched the city late at night, but it suddenly started to rain, and there was not much result. Although this earth was not a treasure, it was a symbol of the court's tribute, which was related to the face of the court. When something went wrong, the governor would have a headache.
But I really didn't find it. I lost two pieces. The man who ran away was not counted. The most hateful thing was the first group of men who ran out. I knew that they could not escape. Yu Qian threw the finite soil into the Jinshui River. More than a dozen soldiers with good water nature, even magicians, went down to search, but they couldn't find it back.
In the end, there was no choice but to report to the Governor.
In the early morning of the next day, heavy rains were falling. A large number of armored soldiers guarding the Hanyushan Bridge on the Jinshui River, and the stone lions guarding the palace were ferocious.
At this time, palace lanterns were hung on the gate, and those who stood in the shadows under the lamp were all the clothes of the governor's personal soldiers. The main officials of the prefecture were standing in the ancestral temple hall, and the whole row of bright candles in the hall was shining.
Facing the blue-black altar with a single meter long and wide, the governor had some blood in his eyes. He stared at the two missing corners of the sealed earth for a long time and sighed: "Forget it, this matter is my negligence, and the responsibility lies with me, but this group of people will never take risks and plot useless things. There must be mystery in it."
"Immediately search for all the state chronicles and the book collection records. Within three days, I will thoroughly investigate."
"Abide by the order"
When the group of officials went out, only a few important officials were left. Fan Shan lowered his smile and bowed and said, "There is another thing to report. The Northern Wei army has moved south to Junhechuankou."
The governor frowned, pressed his hand with his hands and asked, "How is the situation in the Muer tribe?"
The Muer tribe was a large tribe who secretly favored the imperial court.
"It's not very good. The last Murhan died for three years and inherited his second son. This man is actually cowardly and just relying on his relationship with the court to barely maintain the situation."
"But this person is lustful, and the proprietary artisan is used to refine aphrodisiacs, and he controls women day and night. He has done all the beautiful women in the department, and it is said that even his own sisters are in it."
"The ethics of the tribe are not as good as us, but this still makes people dissatisfied. This man is fierce inside and killed several people who persuade them, and their hearts have dispersed."
The governor couldn't help but feel a chill, knowing that something was wrong, and sighed and asked, "What's next?"
"This is about the Northern Wei Dynasty. Once the army went back, the eldest son of the Muer tribe responded and killed this man overnight and seized power. Now the Muer tribe has changed hands, Dash has become Muer Khan, and the information has only reached here. I don't know the situation later."
"The Muer tribe is unreliable." The governor's eyes flashed and his sharpness disappeared: "I know Dash, who is in the tribe, is in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Among the thousands of households he led, whoever is loyal to the court will kill. This time, he ascended the Khan throne, and it will take less time to clean up the dissidents."
"The Muer tribe was originally a barrier to our Yingzhou, but now it is the enemy of our Yingzhou. The main force of the Northern Wei Dynasty fought against the court. The Muer tribe is afraid that it will be the pioneer of our Yingzhou invasion."
Everyone should be so. Fan Shan glanced at the Governor and sighed in his heart: "It's a rank of officials. With just a little news, there will be such insights from the Ming and Qing dynasties. This is the cave investigation..."
Thinking of it, he said again: "Yes, so I have to prepare in advance."
The governor returned to calmness in the battle and smiled: "The soldiers come to block the enemy, and the water comes to flood the earth. Our Yingzhou is not a softie. By the way, Ye Qing offered 1,800 war horses, 2,000 oxen oxen, and Yu Fan offered 700 war horses. I will report it to the emperor through the Taoist law. What do you think of dealing with it?"
"One thousand eight hundred war horses and two thousand plowing oxen, the average price alone will cost 300,000 silver. The state has to deal with the war, and the finances are very tight. Give me a hundred thousand taels. The rest can be compensated by official titles. Is this a great achievement?"
"Ye Qingjin went to the seventh rank of Hanlin for maintenance, and Yu Fan was appointed as the county magistrate of Ban'an County. What do you think?" The governor, who had been half-closing his eyes to rest, said with his eyes open.
"Yu Fan, I have no objection to you."
"But Ye Qing is probably not suitable." Fan Shan spread his dark eyebrows and said, "I didn't speak for him because of this connection. This is the truth."
"He is the second-level official, a god. According to the court system, there is no obstacle to promotion. The seventh-grade Hanlin maintenance was available in three to five years. It is not a real job. It really cannot be considered compensation. It is not as fast as Yu Fan's original nine-grade rank, but he jumped to the eighth-grade rank."
"Compared with Yu Fan, Ye Qing has made great achievements, and we have checked the amount of money submitted. We are truly fair and honest, so we can't let his heart be disappointed."
"The key is that he will not enter the court system. If he is willing to join the system, I will immediately be appointed as the county magistrate, and even the Tongzhi can be promoted in an extraordinary way, but now the actual promotion is not to be thought about - what are your regulations?"
"The seventh-rank Hanlin in Jin Zheng was suspended, and his title will be promoted to the Nan Lianzi again."
"Nan Lianzi?" Although he had no fiefdom and could not have hereditary titles, it was still a bit too generous. The governor hesitated and smiled and stood up, saying, "That's right, he made military achievements and field battles. Nan Lianzi could barely deserve it. The battle was in front of him, so it was an exception. It was a thousand gold to buy bones."
After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Just write the memorial according to this charter."
Fan Shan knew the court's procedures well and knew that the governor's memorial was not rejected. The matter was settled like this. Thinking of Ye Qing's failure to even meet the governor yesterday, he came to pay his respects to him first, and said, "I guess this Ye Qing will be grateful and do things more impartially."
The Governor laughed: "What you said is, go, we will discuss something else tomorrow."
Neither of them mentioned the Governor's Office. Governor Zhang Cunshi was in the fourth rank of official position. How could he not know the rules of the officialdom without having to directly criticize him? As long as he saw the praise from the court, he knew it and dared not disobey this meaning again.
As for what I think in secret, it doesn’t matter. Isn’t that the officialdom?
