Chapter 404

After all, it is him Li Wenyuan who is here today, but who knows if there will be Liu Wenyuan tomorrow, and another Zhang Wenyuan the day after tomorrow to drive Li Wenyuan out of Zhangye County. At that time, if he gets on Li Wenyuan's boat, when Li Wenyuan is defeated, it will be too late for him to think about it.

Thinking like this, Han Gu pressed this employment document without consulting Han Yingxue, and never gave Li Wenyuan's people an accurate answer.

Later, by chance, Han Yingxue found this employment document when she was looking for a travelogue that she had read before in her father's study. Hearing this, Li Wenyuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it is true that no matter what era, it is these educated young scholars who are the most enthusiastic and easy to accept change.

As the saying goes, if you have poetry and books in your belly, if you read for a long time, your vision is naturally incomparable to ordinary people. They are young, energetic, and forward-looking, and years of bookish precipitation allow them to see farther than ordinary people. As for Han Gu, it is an exception, Han Gu's vision and mind are not bad, at least much better than those rural villagers. But Han Gu is different from Han Yingxue, he has suffered too much in the officialdom, and he has seen some things too thoroughly, so he didn't turn this corner for a while, and he is still looking at trendy things with old-fashioned eyes.

So after Han Yingxue saw this employment document, she immediately ran into Zhangye County alone with her father Han Gu behind her back, and found the principal of this girls' school with this document. Han Yingxue's talent is not groundless, she used her sharp insights and clear logic to impress the principal of the girls' school during the interview, the two talked happily, and finally the principal of the girls' school decided to officially hire Han Yingxue. And when he learned that Han Yingxue had no place to live in Zhangye County, he took the initiative to bring Han Yingxue back to his home. Just to be able to talk to Han Yingxue for a few more hours every day, so as to enrich my knowledge and broaden my horizons.

Han Yingxue ran out of her home and didn't return all night, so she naturally broke Han Gu and his wife. But when Han Gu found that Han Yingxue's employment document was missing in his study, Han Yingxue's whereabouts were naturally self-evident. Not long after, Han Gu found a girls' school in Zhangye County and wanted to forcibly take Han Yingxue away from this school. Han Yingxue naturally didn't agree, and the father and daughter pulled up in school. Later, the principal of the girls' school intervened to stop it, and the two sides sat down calmly to communicate.

The exchange between the two sides can be described as wonderful, and after this conversation, Han Gu couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, the principal of this girls' school really has two brushes. Everything he said was reasonable, and in the end, Han Gu's long-dormant heart faintly had some thoughts of wanting to become an official again. So Han Gu gave up the idea of taking her daughter home and agreed to continue teaching at the girls' school.

At this time, Li Wenyuan had just pacified Zhangye County, and it was the time when he urgently needed to employ people. Those who followed Li Wenyuan were naturally not enough, so Li Wenyuan ordered a group of local officials with rich experience to be promoted in Zhangye County to stabilize the turbulent situation in Zhangye County. Therefore, these people had no choice but to start looking through the local chronicles left over from the previous dynasty, in order to find a few people who met Li Wenyuan's requirements. They found information on the local chronicles about the former Zhangye County Shou of the same period as the former Zhangye County Warden killed by Li Gui, and one of these people was praised by the former Zhangye County Warden. It's not someone else, it's Han Gu.

So another employment document was sent to Han Gu's home, but this time it was not Han Yingxue, but Han Gu himself was hired as one of the financial officers of Zhangye County, and he was in charge of the tax related to Zhangye County. Han Gu was grateful after receiving this employment document, he didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to become an official in his lifetime, and it was such a fat gap in finance. You must know that those who manage money have always been the henchmen of the rulers, otherwise how would they dare to hand over their lifeblood with confidence.

So out of gratitude to Li Wenyuan's actions, Han Gu, who was also resolute and gave up his secluded life, became an official again, and this time served under Li Wenyuan's account. This time, Han Gu's mood as an official again was much better than before, and most of the old officials of the former dynasty who were used by Li Wenyuan this time were officials with a relatively good reputation, and those officials who had obvious corrupt and perverted the law were not admitted, which made Han Gu's opinion of Li Wenyuan change a little.

Later, with the gradual calming of Zhangye County and the faster and faster pace of Li Wenyuan's external expansion, Li Wenyuan's territory became larger and larger, and his jurisdiction over Zhangye County became weaker and weaker. There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings. Seeing that Li Wenyuan no longer paid attention to Zhangye County, the financial officers of Zhangye County became presumptuous one by one, and began to do some tricks on the accounts, but later found that no one noticed that they were getting bolder and bolder, and it was too late to stop it, so they had to do it hard. However, if you want people not to know, unless you don't do it, a few days ago, the evidence of their false accounts was intercepted by Han Gu. Just as Han Gu was about to take these evidences to meet Li Wenyuan and report them to Li Wenyuan, Han Gu's whole bizarre world evaporated.

After Han Gu disappeared, Han Yingxue went to the yamen and asked his father's colleagues where Han Gu was, but those people only deduced that Han Gu was going on a business trip, and Han Yingxue returned home suspiciously. But after half a month, Han Yingxue asked again that it was still this answer, and Han Yingxue continued to ask where Han Gu went out on business, and this group of people was a little distracted, and finally told Han Yingxue that it was a secret of the yamen and drove Han Yingxue away, and then Han Yingxue never saw those people again, which made Han Yingxue feel a little strange.

Until one day, when Han Yingxue was cleaning up her father's room, she accidentally discovered the evidence that was carefully hidden by her father. It turned out that the evidence that Han Gu said earlier to get the Dunhuang County to present Li Wenyuan was just a copy that he copied.

Speaking of this, Han Yingxue took out a few pieces of paper from her arms and presented them to Li Wenyuan in front of her. Li Wenyuan frowned and looked at Han Yingxue in front of him, and reached out to take the evidence in disbelief.

As Li Wenyuan looked over and walked over, his face became worse and worse. What is recorded in these documents is that the financial officials colluded with each other to falsify the accounts and prepared to fool themselves about the whole thing. The amount of money involved is so large that it is almost equal to the expenses of Li Wenyuan's eastward expedition to Xue Ju.
