Volume 1 Border Storm Chapter 54 Lin Lie warned
New Year's Day comes.
This is the most important festival of the entire Chinese nation for thousands of years, both ancient and modern, and will never change.
During this period of time, people who have worked hard for a year will put aside the things they are doing and reunite with their families, but no matter how many troubles there are, they will be put aside for at least these few days.
Even the officials have stopped at this time, such as the Guangling County Ya, which has been quiet for the past few days, only a few of them in the backyard.
In the past few days, Lu Zhen has been living with Chu Yunrong and them, and they get along quite happily, especially the little girl Cuimei, because Lu Zhen can always say some things or jokes that she doesn't know, which makes her worship this uncle more and more.
It's just that compared with ordinary people, Lu Jin's time to live a relaxed and comfortable life in this county is shorter, and after the fourth year of junior high school, he has to be prepared. Because he will set off for Datong on the morning of the fifth day of the new year, there are still some things that need to be explained to the two of them.
In the afternoon, the two officials also rushed to the county office, and after a routine greeting each other for a good New Year, several people went straight to the topic. Generally speaking, it was the two officials who were talking, but Lu Jin, the main county order, could only listen to it.
Because although he is a county magistrate, he actually doesn't know much about the big and small things in the county this year. Not to mention that he has only been a fake county magistrate for two months, he is the original one, because of the emptiness of those people below, he doesn't know much about specific affairs, and if he goes to Datong to report on his work like this, it will be easy to have problems.
What's more, Lu Jin's visit is not just to report on his work, he also plans to report all the deeds of Zheng Fu and Xiao Mo to the prefect. In this way, it is even more impossible to show cowardice in the affairs of the county government, otherwise the persuasiveness will be greatly reduced.
So when the two officials recounted, he listened very carefully, for fear of missing something. In many cases, he would even interrupt the other party's narration and ask questions to learn more about the affairs of the county hidden beneath the water.
His performance also greatly surprised Hou Shen and the others, and they couldn't imagine that this young county magistrate was not only bold and high-minded, but also had his own insights into trivial matters in the yamen. In this regard, Lu Zhen just laughed in his heart, he was just a paper talk that he learned from some books in later generations, and he was able to bluff these two people.
But because there were many things to be said in detail, the conversation lasted quite a short time, and after three hours, from noon to night, the conversation could not be stopped.
At this time, Hou Xiancheng was talking about food: "My lord, because our Shanxi has always been unrich in food, several counties will have an autumn breeze with the government every year. So this time you have to go to Datong to get this done, otherwise everyone's life will not be easy in the next year. β
"Generally speaking, how much grain can our county get from the government office?" Lu Zhen asked after nodding. He also wanted to have a reference goal so that he could do his part.
"It's probably about 300 stones. These are not only to cope with possible famines, but also to use them in our county on weekdays. Of course, it would be better if the adults could ask for more. Hou Xiancheng said with some anticipation. He had learned the skills of this young county magistrate, and he believed that he would be able to make some impressive achievements in this matter.
Lu Zhen nodded: "I wrote it down, and I will definitely help the county fight for it when the time comes." β
Just as a few people finished talking about business and were about to disperse, a handyman who was temporarily called to the county government office to do things suddenly walked to the door: "My lord, Lin Lie is outside asking to see you." β
"Why is he here?" Lu Jin muttered a little puzzled: "I don't know where he has gone these days......"
Knowing that Lin Lie was alone in the county, Lu Zhen also planned to call him over for the New Year. After all, the two have formed an alliance, and they can take care of it if they can take care of it. But as soon as Lu Zhen had this meaning, Lin Lie disappeared, and he didn't know where he went, and it wasn't until today that he suddenly came to the door.
"Let him in." Although he was a little puzzled, Lu Zhen still nodded and ordered.
After a while, Lin Lie walked in with a lame leg as always: "It's time to give New Year's greetings to a few adults." β
"Rejoice and rejoice!" Lu Zhen and the other two replied casually. But their gaze fell on Lin Lie's body, and they didn't feel a little strange.
According to common sense, it is the New Year's period, and anyone who goes out will change into brand new clothes, so that the whole person looks energetic and happy. But this one is good, not only does the whole person look tired, but his body is still dusty, and he has not changed his clothes and freshened up for many days.
"Lin Zhutou, where have you been? How does it look like this? Lu Jin asked unconsciously with concern.
Lin Lie was not in a hurry to answer, but just glanced at the other two adults with some embarrassment. Although he didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was very clear, and he just wanted to talk to Lu Jin alone.
If it was before, Lin Lie dared to do this, and the two of them would definitely have opinions, and they would even not see each other's hints. But now it is different, because of Lu Jin's strong rise, because Lin Lie's previous performance has become Lu Jin's confidant, and the two adults have no choice but to get up and leave.
Lu Jin didn't hold back, and after a few more words with them, he got up and sent the two out of the door.
"What do you say Lin Lie wants to tell him? How is it so mysterious? After leaving a distance, Hou Xiancheng finally couldn't help asking.
Shen said: "Looking at his appearance, it seems that he has just found out what the situation is, but I don't know what it is." But this should have little to do with us, so it's better to watch from the wall. After all, more is better than less. β
"Speaking of which, our county magistrate can really be described as daring. In just two months, the county has become a new look. What do you think would have been like if we had told us about it that day? Hou Xiancheng is naturally referring to the suspicion of Lu Jin's identity.
"At that time, we all thought that this was someone arranged by Xiao Mo, but we didn't expect it to be completely wrong." Master Shen sighed and said, "And now, it's impossible for us to talk about this anymore, let's just assume that we haven't found anything." β
"That's all it can be......" Hou Xiancheng nodded. The wood is already in the boat, and Lu Zhen has completely grasped the initiative, how can the two of their subordinates dare to say that the other party is fake without other credentials?
When they were whispering about the matter, Lu Zhen asked the person in front of him again: "Where have you been these days?" Why do you look so embarrassed? β
Lin Lie was pouring tea with a bang, looking obviously thirsty, and actually poured a teapot of water into his stomach in one go. Only then did he exhale with satisfaction, and then wiped his mouth and said, "I've been walking around outside in the past few days. β
"What are you going to do outside?" Lu Zhen frowned puzzled: "I originally planned to ask you to celebrate the New Year together." β
Seeing that Lu Jin's words were sincere, Lin Lie's heart was warm. Then he said: "Because I am a little worried about that Xiao Mo, I am worried that he will be unfavorable to you." So I took the opportunity to feel the situation on several key roads, and it turned out that I really found the person hiding there. β
"What? You mean...... Do you find that there are people who are lying in ambush on those roads and want to do my favor? Lu Zhen understood at once, and his heart was nervous.
"Exactly. Obviously, Xiao Mo was worried that your lord would stab his crime in Datong Mansion, so he arranged for people to ambush there early. As long as you do this, that thing will definitely not be in Datong. β
"How bold is he, can he really cover the sky with one hand?" Lu Zhen was shocked and said angrily. Although he also expected that the other party might have this move, he was still surprised when he really knew.
But Lin Lie's words weren't finished yet, I saw him continue with a serious expression: "This is not the most serious. Just a few days ago, I found out that they had more people than before, and then I overheard from the side and found out that they were targeting you this time. Because they have gotten the news from nowhere, and know that you will leave the county seat for Datong on the fifth day of the first month, they want to intercept and kill you halfway. β
"What?" Lu Jin couldn't believe his ears, and suddenly bounced up from his chair. But soon, he was relieved again, didn't Xiao Mo do it once before? And the people have already been killed by him......
The only thing that shocked him was that this time the contradiction between himself and him had been completely made public, and if he died, his suspicion would be the greatest. And under such circumstances, he still dares to have such thoughts, which can no longer be described as bold, but arrogant. He obviously decided that even so, he would not be too affected before he dared to do this, which means that Xiao Mo must have an extremely tough backer behind him!
This gave Lu Zhen a headache, and he didn't even know that he could really report the matter in Datong.
Lin Lie was still talking: "I have taken a closer look at them, they have arranged them extremely carefully this time, and there are almost no omissions, as long as you go, I am afraid that there will be no return." Therefore, in the humble opinion of the lowly position, it is best for you not to go to Datong this time, so that is the safest. β
When he said this, Lin Lie seemed a little lacking in confidence. Because he knew that Lu Jin's visit to Datong was to report on his work, it was not a trivial matter, and it was not something he could decide to go or not to go casually. But for the sake of Lu Jin's safety, he had to make this suggestion.
