Chapter 153: Zhao County Wei’s advice

"Mr. Zhao?" Li Yi hurriedly stood up to greet him.

When he saw Li Yi, Zhao County Wei quickly stepped forward and held Li Yi's hand.

Looking at Li Yi's bandaged right hand, he said wonderingly: "Brother Li, why have you added new injuries after not seeing each other for many days?"

When Yun Zhaozhao reported to Zhao County Weiwei that Lao Lao and his gang kidnapped Han Bi, in order to ensure Li Yi's safety, he deliberately hid his traces in it, so Zhao County Weiwei did not know that yesterday's incident was related to Li Yi.

"I accidentally fell, haha." Li Yi scratched his head and laughed dryly, "Sir, please take your seat."

Zhao County Wei did not refuse. After sitting down, he smiled on his dark face: "I haven't seen each other for many days, Brother Li has now become the smartest man in Zhaozhou."

Li Yi smiled embarrassedly. This name was originally changed with the plaque given by Zhao County Wei.

"It's not worth mentioning, it's just a group of people spreading rumors."

Zhao County Wei shook his head and said, "Hey~Where is this? How come this is spread? The little brother has solved many strange cases in a few days, and it is not an exaggeration to comment on "judging a case is like a god."

Li Yi was a little embarrassed by being praised by Zhao County Magistrate: "Sir, don't praise me, but you don't know that it is because of the plaque of the most intelligent person that I have suffered a lot."

"Oh? How can I explain this?"

Li Yi immediately told him about how those people challenged him, how they married him, and how they morally kidnapped him.

Zhao County Wei laughed and said, "Brother Li, this kind of thing is actually very broken. You are just a mystery to the authorities."

"Oh?" Li Yi was a little puzzled, "Sir, have you any plan to teach me?"

Zhao County Wei said lightly: "Others who dare to challenge you are nothing more than bullying you now have a low status. In their opinion, your reputation is not worthy of your position, so I feel unfair about you being able to get such a reputation.

If you have an official position, even if you have a bad position, it will be above too many people. At that time, even if they want to challenge you, you have to consider whether you are qualified or not."

Li Yi blinked: "What does that adult mean?"

Zhao County Wei smiled slightly: "When Brother Li broke the court case in court, did he still remember a Lord Zhang who once spoke for you? He is very optimistic about you and asked me about you several times."

Li Yi took a deep breath. It seemed that Zhao County Wei still had the intention to recommend him to be an official.

In fact, Li Yi had thought about this issue long ago, and he even suspected that Zhao County Wei gave him the plaque of "the smartest man" in order to let him see the importance of power and status through those farces.

Seeing Li Yi's face showing thought, Zhao County Magistrate continued, "That Lord Zhang is an official from Beijing. He came to Pingji County to investigate a secret case. If you can help him succeed, he will make great contributions.

At that time, as long as he returns to Beijing and brings you a sum in the credit book, you will be able to be promoted. Haha, with the officials behind him, how can anyone dare to challenge you, the 'smart man'?"

Li Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I understand all the words that sir said, but..."

Being an official has the benefits of being an official. If you become an official, you will naturally save all the troubles. And you may also follow Zhang Yun and directly build a foothold in the capital, so you don’t have to worry about Xiao Qiaoer’s eye anymore.

But being an official also has troubles.

If you really become an official, you may never have the opportunity to live leisurely in the future. The officialdom is in a state of ups and downs, and the glory of this day is unlimited, and the next day may be exiled to the frontier. It is a headache to think about it.

In contrast, wouldn’t it be better to find a business opportunity to make more money and be a lazy rich and idle person?

Seeing Li Yi being a little moved, but more hesitant, Zhao County Wei hurriedly said, "Brother Li, don't be anxious, you can go back and think carefully."

Li Yi nodded, and he did face a major choice next, and his life is likely to be polarized by one choice.

Zhao County Wei asked again: "By the way, why did Brother Li come to Jishantang? Are you here to treat the injury?"

Li Yi waved his hand: "It's not the case. In fact, it's my son who came here to learn medical skills from Dr. Sun."

"Oh, Neizi? Brother Li has married?" Zhao County Wei was stunned.

Li Yi said: "My mother has already approved it and will be officially hired to get married after a while."

Zhao County Wei asked again: "Which girl is it?"

"It is Gan Ci, the coroner of this county. Should he still have an impression?"

Zhao County Magistrate nodded slightly, his expression slightly darkened: "Miss Gan Cigan, it turns out it's her."

Seeing that Zhao County Magistrate was a little reluctant to speak, Li Yi asked, "Sir, is there anything wrong with this?"

Zhao County Wei sighed: "Brother Li, don't blame me for being too talkative. If you want to enter the officialdom and achieve your ambitions, you should give up the marriage quickly while you are not finished."

Li Yi was shocked: "Why is this?"

Zhao County Wei said: "If you live and work in peace and contentment, Miss Gan will be a match for you. But if you want to go smoothly in the officialdom, Miss Gan will become your stumbling block.

You are not from a high family and have no merits. You can only make a name for yourself by making a name for yourself. If you want to go far, you can't do it. If you can marry a daughter of an adult, it's very different..."

Li Yi understood what Zhao County Wei said and immediately refused: "Sir, the matter between me and A Ci has become a fact, so there is no need to say such words."

Zhao County Wei smiled and said, "I know that you are young and romantic and have sincere feelings. I am also from that age. I have made the same choice as you, so I will naturally understand what you mean.

However, I also refused an adult's marriage at the beginning. After suffering a great loss, I realized the importance of in-laws.

I am not forcing you to divorce your wife. If you really like that girl Gan, it is okay to stay as a concubine. If you just be a wife, it will be a bit...

Her father died early and his family was not of high status, so he would have little help to you. You might as well think more."

Li Yi shook his head. He did not want to continue this topic with Zhao County Magistrate, so he raised his teacup to drink water to divert his attention.

But as soon as he lifted the tea lid, he pressed it down with one hand.

This hand is a little thin, and there is a red scar on the wrist, which looks like it was recently injured by something like a whip strip.

Li Yi looked up and saw that the owner of this hand was the deaf and mute boy.

Li Yi was about to ask him why he stopped him from drinking water, but the boy showed a piece of paper first.

The handwriting on the paper is a bit sloppy and not beautiful. It seems to be written in a hurry, and it is a big word "cool".

"Are you reminding me that the tea is cold?" Li Yi asked.

The boy naturally did not answer. He snatched the teacup and the teacup together, then turned around and left, put the teacup behind the counter, and brought two more cups of hot tea.

"Thank you."

Li Yi hurriedly reached out to take it, first placed a cup of tea in front of Zhao County Wei, and then took another cup to drink it by himself.

Zhao County Wei didn't drink tea. He looked at the young man's eyes and his brows sank slightly, as if he felt a little strange.
