Wang Fu continues to blacken (14)
Recently, the town has been very lively, and people are gossiping about things related to the prefectural order and the prefect. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Four of the six people selected by Qi Jin took on different tasks of organizational building, leaving only the boy and his sister.
Originally, Qi Jin thought that raising them was nothing more than two more mouths, but these two children brought her unexpected joy.
The siblings are much more capable than they seem! Now the whole town is spreading that the prefect is a stone girl with a tyrannical temperament and cannot be 'humane' and likes to abuse men for fun. In order to curry favor with the prefect, the prefect is wantonly searching for good-looking men among the people.
It was originally a rumor spread by the two little beggars, but the three of them became tigers, and the more people said it, the more people heard it, and naturally more people heard it. Even if the people don't fully believe it, the seeds of doubt are planted in their hearts, just wait for an opportunity and wait for that kind of seed to break through people's hearts and shatter all people's trust in the prefect!
The prefect said that the expenses of the towns under the inspection were simple, but the county order general's treatment of the prefect was 'simple' just under the guise of showing others, and there was no one at the bottom who did not dare to make a reduction in rituals.
"Xiaguan meets the prefect!" The county order was waiting for the prefect outside the city gate early, and from the hour to the hour, if the prefect didn't come again, she would not be able to stand.
"No courtesy." The prefect got down from the sedan chair and said to the prefectural order who was kneeling on the ground respectfully.
The county order was very polite, and first made a bow to the prefect and said, "Thank you, sir!" Then he slowly got up.
"Do you want to eat first or rest for a while?"
"I'm tired, take a break first, and wait if there's anything to talk about."
When the county magistrate heard this, he felt a little more relieved, "Yes, my lord, please get on the sedan chair first." The lower officer will show you the way. ā
The corners of the prefect's mouth are slightly curved, this small county order has a bit of eyes and is more sensible. There was also a small county order that actually hung himself in the post station for two days, and he was an hour late when he picked her up! When she left, the prefectural order was changed!
When she arrived at the place, the prefect got off the sedan chair, and she couldn't help but darken her face when she saw the scene in front of her. The outside of the post station was tattered, and the pillars were even a little painted.
The prefect endured his anger and followed the county order to continue walking inside, "The lower official is specially prepared for the prefect in the back, if the adult is tired, if he does not dislike the lower official, he can carry the adult on his back." ā
The prefectural order lowered its attitude, and the prefect's anger was half gone, but he was still not happy.
When I got to the backyard, I found that there was something hidden in this station! In the front yard, there are only a few bamboos and a few pots of wilting orchids, and the backyard is full of splendor, koi, lotus, and peonies...... The whole nine yards.
Compared to the prefect's own back garden, this is really nothing, but because of the dilapidated scene in front of it just now, it seems that the furnishings in the back are commendable.
After settling the prefect, the prefectural magistrate took his leave to prepare for the dinner in the evening. At that time, all the merchants in the town will be invited, and she will take the opportunity to raise some topics of 'empty treasury', and there will be a big man like the prefect who attracts money in her and will not worry about having no money to take.
You can't eat meat, so it's always okay to drink soup with it, right? The county commander touched his chin and smiled, and the entourage who followed her also laughed when he saw the county order making such an expression, and the county commander smiled that he wanted to get rich! As soon as she gets rich, then their lives under the county commander will be better.
As soon as the prefect entered the city, the county order ordered someone to spread the news in the afternoon that a banquet would be held in Hongbin Tower in the evening. People can't figure out what kind of famous banquet is about, but the merchants who received the invitation are still happy to go, no matter what, it is a glory that others dare not think of to be able to climb the relationship with the prefect!
The merchants who went there had already prepared all kinds of rare treasure supplements, just to show their faces in front of the prefect.
The prefect accepted the things that were 'honored' to her by all parties, and she was neither happy nor unhappy, so that those merchants were a little uncertain when they saw it, and they didn't know what to do.
A woman with a lively eye secretly whispered a few words to the maid behind her, and the maid nodded her head, but a stick of incense went by in time, and she returned with an ebony box in her hand, and it seemed that the weight was not light.
"Lord Prefect," the woman arched her hand, "Lord Prefect is here, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart!" Everyone was amazed when they heard this.
The maid standing behind the woman and still holding the box couldn't help but remind her, "Miss, it's from the bottom of my heart......"
When the woman heard the prompt from the maid behind her, she knocked on her head with her backhand, snatched the sandalwood box in her hand, and muttered, "Aren't the liver, gallbladder, and heart and other things the same?" ā
Everyone held back their laughter and didn't dare to lose their posture in front of the prefect and county order. "My lord! The villain hasn't read a book for a few days, and there is no ink in his belly, so you understand what the villain means. ā
Saying that, the woman opened the box and walked a few steps towards the prefect's main seat, "This is the snow lotus that my mother picked from the highest mountain on the border between our Liang Kingdom and Jin Yao seventeen years ago. This snow lotus does not have a thousand-year-old year, but it is also a hundred years old. ā
"Just cut off a thin petal and soak it in clean rootless water for an hour, even if you take out the petal, the fragrance will remain in the water for a long time!" The woman lifted the box and spun around.
"Oh? It's an interesting thing, so I'll take a look at it. The prefect covered his face with his sleeves covered and pretended to be drinking, in fact, when she heard that it was the hundred-year-old peak snow lotus, she couldn't hold it back!
The prefect was very happy to receive a big baby, but this happiness was limited to having a good face to the woman who was dedicated to her Snow Lotus, and he was still cold to others.
With the example of giving snow lotus before, everyone had to follow suit, but in their hearts, they had a grudge against the greedy prefect, and they had no good impression of the fool who gave away a treasure like a century-old snow lotus! If you are stupid, you still have to pull yourself up, and you will lose the baby at the bottom of the box!
When the treasures were sent in the middle of the banquet, the prefect's face also showed signs of warming, and the cold ice also melted partially.
At the end of the banquet, the county order put forward what kind of "repair the school to add more talents to Liang Guo" and other rotten excuses for collecting money.
Everyone complained in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it, so they had to pay out of their pockets and sign their names, and they also pretended to be proud to show the county commander.
When the dinner party was over, everyone only felt that they had been stripped of a layer of skin, and this time it was really a big loss! Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to take my business to the next level, but I didn't expect to find a way to get a lot of money instead. It's really a loss of husband and soldiers!
The next day, there were rumors that the prefect and the county commander were embarrassed and forced many wealthy families to hand over their family heirlooms, otherwise they would not let them go! The so-called welcome party is actually a premeditated 'Hongmen banquet'! (To be continued.) )
