The woman saw Li Zicheng squinting, and immediately became angry, her eyes widened, she pinched her waist with one hand, pointed forward with the other hand, and shouted: "You are so bold, this is the family of the Grand Governor, you dare to peep here!" ”

"I naturally know the family of the Grand Duke, but as far as I know, you are not a family member of the Grand Duke, why do you live here?" Li Zicheng knew that he hadn't gone to the wrong house, so he pretended to be bolder, "Say, who are you, why do you pretend to be the dependents of the Grand Governor?" ”

"Who says I'm not a family member of the Grand Duke?" The woman's face turned red, and her arrogance went out a lot, but she still held on, and said: "I know that this is the residence of the Metropolitan Governor, but I want to come here to plot against you, beware that I tell the Metropolitan Governor that I have picked your skin, and I will not leave quickly with your people?" ”

Li Zicheng ran for a whole day, sweaty, I wanted to take a hot bath to refresh and refresh, and then communicate with Tian Fen, but I didn't want to meet a very unreasonable girl here, he had the heart to show his identity, but he was a little unwilling, and he had the heart to laugh a few words, and then said: "You girl who pretends to be a family member of the governor of the capital, how do you know that I came here to plot misdeeds?" ”

"You really don't listen to advice?" The woman changed into her hands on her waist, looking like a chicken woman protecting her chickens, "I see that you are also a soldier, don't you know the nature of the governor?" ”

I could hear a slight sound of footsteps coming from inside, as if someone was walking towards the door, and then there was a voice: "Kite, what happened?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, someone is messing around here!" The woman hurriedly left the door, went back to eat her wife, and came out together, and when she looked at Li Zicheng again, she was still angry.

"The Grand Duke?" Tian Fen pushed away the woman named Kite, flew up, and threw herself into Li Zicheng's arms, which stunned Kite, and stood aside, not knowing how to move for a long time.

Li Zicheng held Tian Fen in his arms, patted her back gently, and carefully comforted, "Fen'er, during this period of time, I was busy with official business, so you have to suffer here alone!" ”

"No, no, the Metropolitan Governor is a nobleman, and there are naturally a lot of events around him," Tian Fen raised his head and pointed at the kite, "Fortunately, with the kite, it's not too lonely!" ”

Li Zicheng had already felt her loneliness from the weight that Tian Fen threw into his arms, and at this time he could only hug her tightly to make amends, so he asked casually: "This kite, what is the way it came from?" ”

"She," Tian Fen tilted his head and smiled: "It's from Han Zhixian's family!" ”

It turned out that when Tian Fen came to Qingshui County, she didn't bring a maid with her, and Han Shanbo, the magistrate of the county, saw that she was lonely and lacked care, so he transferred his wife's newly bought personal maid Kite over to serve her daily life, and there was someone to talk to.

The kite only came to her senses at this time, and she knelt down on the ground, "The slave doesn't know that it's the Metropolitan Governor...... The slave and the maid are convicted...... The slave and maid confessed their guilt...... but secretly aimed at Tian Fen.

Tian Fen hurriedly blew the wind in his arms, "Dadu Governor, the kite is really unintentional......"

"Those who don't know are not guilty, how can I be as knowledgeable as a little girl?" Li Zicheng stretched out his hand to make a move to let Kite get up, looked at her and smiled lightly: "Besides, you are loyal to the Lord, what is the crime?" ”

He only now understands that the dependents mentioned by the original kite also include the girls in the family, in this era, slaves are counted as family members, and they and their masters are both lost and prosperous, so they are naturally dependents.

Although Tian Fen is familiar with the Chinese language and often has contact with the Han people, after all, there is the blood of the Hui people flowing in her body, so she is naturally not as graceful as the woman in Jiangnan.

He is a woman, and he is a coquette, Li Zicheng naturally will not drive Tian Fen away, he signaled to the kite, the kite is very smart, nodded to Li Zicheng, and hurriedly went to the inner room lightly, "The slave maid went to make a pot of hot tea for the Metropolitan Governor!" ”

The two of them silently kept warm for a while, but He Xiaomi coughed, stood outside the door and said: "Metropolitan Governor, someone from Han Zhi County came to invite, saying that it was for the Metropolitan Governor to pick up the wind!" ”

"Catch the wind?" Li Zicheng originally didn't plan to alarm the civil officials, he stayed in Qingshui County for a night, and he was going to leave tomorrow, but at this moment, Han Shanbo asked someone to invite, he changed his mind, first, to ask the people about the autumn planting, and second, they sent a kite to Tian Fen, so he had to say a word of thanks, and said: "You tell the person who came, I will go in a while!" ”

"Yes, Grand Duke!" He Xiaomi agreed to go.

Li Zicheng pulled Tian Fen's face and pecked lightly on her red lips, "Fen'er, this kite, after all, is from Han Zhixian, tomorrow I will ask someone to buy a girl and return the kite to Han Zhixian, right?" ”

"Give it back to him?" Tian Fen's face was full of reluctance, her blue eyes flickered, like two deep lakes, and the breeze rose with a hint of light.

It seems that I like this girl, what's so good about this girl, why can't I see it, in addition to the figure, the face is also in the posture of a person, and there is a small concave above the outer corner of the left eye......

However, he immediately laughed, Fen'er looked at Kite, not mainly because of her appearance, but because of her personality, the two of them could say that Kite'er was more clever and a little spicy, which was the best material in the close-fitting girl.

Since Fen'er likes it, let her go, it's a big deal to spend some silver, "If Fen'er likes kites, then I'll buy it from Han Zhixian tonight!"

"That's a good dare," Tian Fen padded her little feet, quickly kissed Li Zicheng's face, and said: "I heard Kite say that after Han Zhixian was promoted to Zhixian, she bought her in the market, and it was not long before the governor wanted to buy it, and Han Zhixian should be willing!" ”

The kite was coming over with tea, and when she heard the words, her face was immediately happy, and even her steps were lighter.

"I, the governor, buy a girl from him, that's to look up to him, what's not willing?" Li Zicheng stroked Tian Fen's face, "Wash your body white, I'll go to meet Han Zhixian first, and I'll definitely come over after dinner!" ”

Tian Fen's face was full of shame, her face was happy at first, and even her eyes radiated the light of her boyfriend, and then she was covered with a layer of melancholy and shook her head gently.

Li Zicheng only said that she was shy, and she didn't pay attention, so she quit Tian Fen and took He Xiaomi and several personal soldiers to the banquet.

Han Shanbo's banquet was in the back office, but a distance of more than ten steps, and in a blink of an eye, the banquet was in the middle of the back office on the right, and Han Shanbo welcomed Li Zicheng in, and the two people inside had already bowed to the ground.

Li Zicheng looked sideways, as if he didn't know each other, first asked the two to get up, and then looked at Han Shanbo.

Han Shanbo hurriedly said: "The Metropolitan Governor, these two are the masters of the county government, this is the master of money and grain, Gu Keyong, this is the master of the criminal name, Bao Chaokai, because the Metropolitan Governor suddenly returned, his subordinates did not have time to ask the prefect to accompany him......"

"It turns out that the two are masters," Li Zicheng understood, it turned out that Qingshui County was only forty miles in radius, and it could only be regarded as a small county, so there was no county or master, and the master was regarded as the right-hand man of the county, he glanced at it, Gu Ke was nearly forty years old, wearing a dark gray robe, with a towering figure, and he had not yet shown his wealth, Bao Chaokai was also wearing a gray robe, he was fifty years old, his body was shorter, but he was more burly, and he gave it to him at the moment, "Han Zhixian doesn't need to alarm the prefect, these two are not bad, It just so happened that Pontus had something to ask them, and it was very good, very good! ”

"As long as the Metropolitan Governor doesn't mind, let's talk while eating, Metropolitan Governor, the dinner is ready, please!"

The four people entered the table, and there were already servants serving all kinds of dishes, and after the square table was full, half a layer was superimposed, and the girl bun filled the wine cup for the four people, Han Shanbo said: "The metropolitan governor has always been busy with official business, although he often passes by Qingshui County, his subordinates are rare to see each other, and today I take this opportunity to give the metropolitan governor a drink!" I couldn't help but say, I had already raised the wine cup and signaled to Li Zicheng.

Gu Kedi and Bao Chaokai raised their wine cups, "Grand Duke, please!" ”

"Please!" Li Zicheng also picked up the wine cup and signaled to the three of them in turn, and then took a sip and showed the bottom of the glass.

The three of them also did it, lit up the bottom of the cup, and Han Shanbo said: "The Metropolitan Governor is really a bold person, and his subordinates are impressed!" ”

The girl started with Li Zicheng and refilled the four of them.

Han Shanbo raised the wine cup again and said: "This second cup, the subordinates are grateful to the Metropolitan Governor for going east to Longyou, and with the Metropolitan Governor pressing the formation, Qingshui County has finally lived a peaceful life, and the subordinates are grateful!" ”

Li Zicheng is self-controlled, Han Shanbo welcomes himself, not necessarily out of sincerity, but Qingshui County, and even the entire Longyou, have lived a peaceful life since then, but it is an indisputable fact that compared with the rest of the prefectures and counties in Shaanxi, at least the people will not be in dire straits, so they raised their glasses again.

After three rounds of drinking, Han Shanbo was courteously invited to eat, and the speed of drinking slowed down, everyone can communicate to their heart's content, and if they are right, they are all happy, if anyone says something that should not be done, it is a drunken gaffe, and they can't count.

Li Zicheng ate a few bites of the dishes indiscriminately, and then said: "Han Zhi County, Qingshui County, has the land been allocated?" Can anyone in the middle raise an objection? ”

In fact, the land in Qingshui County, according to the plan of '30 mu per ding', will be replenished to the large households with surplus land, and now there are still thousands of mu of land left......

"Oh?" Li Zicheng was puzzled, and said with his eyebrows: "Why are there more of these lands?" ”

"The Metropolitan Governor ......" Han Shanbo hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Don't hide it from the Metropolitan Governor, in Qingshui County over the years, the original big households have almost been slaughtered, and a large amount of land owned by them has been collected by the county government, and it will be distributed together this time; In addition, when the population was registered and the land was distributed this time, some aliens refused to 'join the Han nationality and serve God', and were ...... by the Mandate of Heaven So the land was left ......"

Li Zicheng nodded, the bloodshed in Qingshui County was an order he personally issued, at that time, he was eager to kill all the foreign people who refused to "join the Han nationality", and he simply killed a hundred, and now he knows that if there is no population, just land, it will not be able to produce food, "Can Han Zhixian confirm that all the people have enough land?" My own soldiers will patrol the way, and if ......"

"Although the Metropolitan Governor went to investigate, his subordinates assured the Metropolitan Governor that in Qingshui County, all the people were registered as Han nationals and had enough land......

"Han Zhixian doesn't have to mind," Li Zicheng's face smiled, "It's just that the Heavenly Mandate Army has created so many killings in Qingshui County, if you can't let the people who return to Shun have enough food and clothing, then you can't help the people who follow the Heavenly Mandate Army, not only Qingshui County, but also the rest of the prefectures and counties, I will also check them one by one, so as not to mistake the people - for the county government, if you miss one or two people, it will only reduce the taxes slightly, but for that people, it is ......"
