Lam tin.

When Xue Wu arrived at the county office, he was as casual as his own house, and the officials at the door stepped forward to greet him cordially.

"Is Liu Envoy-kun here?"

"Make the king in the back hall, and the little one will report immediately." The official replied with a smile.

"No need, I'll just go in by myself." After Xue Wu finished speaking, he didn't rush to leave, but pulled Li Xiao forward, "This is Li Xiao and Li Sanlang from your Lanxi Li Jiazhuang, and he is my friend." ”

When the official heard the three words of Li Jiazhuang, his face was a little complicated, but when he heard Xue Wu say that the two were friends, he hurriedly smiled and bowed his hand to Li Xiao cordially, "It turned out to be Lanxi Li Sanlang, your Li family has a good name, you have heard of it, San Lang will take care of it more in the future, they are all township parties, small Wang Qi, and the county is white and straight." ”

Li Xiao heard that the other party was just a white straight, but he didn't show anything unusual, he still smiled and nodded, "Brother Wang, please take care of me in the future." ”

Bai Zhi is a supernumerary official in the Tang Dynasty government, and to put it bluntly, he is a supernumerary temporary worker, which is actually a kind of errand service. Many of the errand servants in the Tang Dynasty government were actually sent to the common people to serve in turn, but this kind of temporary worker should not be underestimated at any time.

After all, if you occupy a position, you can control a certain amount of resources, and if you have a position, you will have power. Hades is a small ghost, and sometimes, this kind of person deliberately makes a knot in the middle, which is also relatively easy to do bad things.

After a few words of the scene, it can be regarded as acquaintance, and Wang Qi took the initiative to bring them into the government.

With Xue Wu's recommendation, Li Xiao naturally met the county's biggest parent official, Liuyan of Liupin County. Li Xiao saluted honestly, and then stood aside with solemn hands. Xue Wu said to Liuxian Ling that this Li Gongzi has met my father, and my father values him very much, and even plans to accept him as a protégé.

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xianling couldn't help but turn his head sideways to look at Li Xiao.

"He is the Li Sanlang of Lijiazhuang that you said before?"

"It's him, uncle, the Zhang family's embezzlement of the Li family's property, and I have to bother my uncle to help."

Liu Xian Ling stroked his long beard and showed a gentle smile, "Don't worry, this matter has already been investigated, Zhang Papi and his son have indeed done a lot of immoral things over the years, this time the county did it, it is ironclad evidence, they don't want to turn over." However, the matter of the Li family's industry will not be revealed until it is revealed, after all, some things have been done for many years, and they have to be investigated before and after, and they will not be able to do it for a while. ”

"But it's all a matter of my uncle's words, if my uncle opens his mouth, even if he returns the Li family's property in advance, what's the difficulty?"

Xue Wukou is straightforward, since even his father values Li Sanlang so much, he also feels that he is very close to Li Xiao, so he naturally has to try his best to help.

Liu Xian Ling was made impossible by his nephew, in fact, it is not difficult to say that things are difficult, and it is not easy to say that it is simple, there is actually some greasy in it.

The Zhang family was uprooted, of course, no one could help overturn the case, but after the Zhang family was uprooted, it was natural for everyone to share the benefits together. The Zhang family's industry, no matter how it came about, will be shared by everyone anyway, and part of it will be confiscated and then handed over to the superiors.

But more property will not be accounted for, these will be divided into several parts, up to the county order, the chief book, the county lieutenant, down to the records and other officials in the yamen will have a benefit, and even the superiors of the Liu County Order can also get a copy, and then leave a sum to put in the small treasury to use as public money.

It's a great joy for all.

As for the people who were bullied by the Zhang family before, the property that was embezzled will definitely be symbolically returned, but most of them have become a confused account.

Of course, Xue Wu personally helped Li Xiao intercede, and there was Xue Rengui standing behind him, and the situation was different. Xue Rengui brought words to help Li Xiao, and the Liuxian order was still clear.

He thought about it for a while, "In this way, the 800 yuan loan that the Li family owes to the Zhang family is very clear and can be forgiven." ”

"In addition, the ancestral house of the Li family should also be returned to the Li family first, as for other shops and fields, there are still a lot of documents and contracts to be checked in the middle, and I will take care of people to check this."

Liu County Ling didn't say anything, he first gave the Xue family a big favor, forgave the 800 debts, and returned the Li family's ancestral house, but more properties were not returned immediately.

First, he has to discuss this thing with others, and secondly, things are not done like this, even if he wants to return it, he will have to spend a few times, and he has to let Li Xiao know the depth of this favor.

"Thank you for seeking justice for the Li family and upholding justice."

"This official is the commander of Lantian County, and he is also the parent official of this county, these are as they should be."

The sedan chair carried people, Liu Yan looked at the Xue family's face, and returned some of the Li family's properties, which was just a matter of effort.

Xue Wu also deliberately revealed that Xue Rengui intended to recruit Li Xiao as a personal guard, and Liu Yan called Li Xiao a virtuous nephew.

With a virtuous nephew, Li Xiao can be said to be at ease in Lantian County in the future.

"In the future, if there is anything, just come to the county office to find me." Liu Yan took Li Xiao's hand and said cordially.

During the conversation, Liu County Ling also specially called the county to record the affairs and asked him to handle the affairs of the Li family in person.

By the time Li Xiao said goodbye, the deed of the Li family's ancestral house had been recorded, and even the IOU of 800 yuan of usury had been returned.

"Brother Li, I'll take a few people to accompany you back to receive the house in a while." The county clerk is a middle-aged literati, and this person can be regarded as a strong man in Lanxi County, and he is a member of the county government on behalf of the county, a not small clan, and he is deeply rooted. Even two years ago, he accepted Zhang Papi's daughter as a concubine, but at this time he was very polite to Li Xiao, as if he had nothing to do with the Zhang family at all.

Not to mention that when the Zhang family embezzled the Li family's property before, Zhao Lushi made suggestions in it and acted as a protective umbrella for the Zhang family, nor did he mention that the Zhang family embezzled the Li family's property, and many of them were sent to his name.

"Then thank Zhao Lushi first!"

Li Xiao knows that Zhao Lushi is this person, this Zhao Lushi is a bit similar to Song Jiang in the Water Margin, his status is not high, but his power is not small, this kind of person is very powerful.

Li Xiao didn't have a good impression of this person, but the politeness on the surface still had to be maintained.

"Brother Li, please!"

"Zhao Lu please, please!"

Xue Wu couldn't stand it on the side, "What are you rubbing, hurry up, go back and collect the house first." ”

Just about to get on the horse, a servant came out of the county office, but it was a servant of Liu County's order, who sent a box of books and a set of four treasures of the study.

"My family envoy will confess, let Li Sanlang go home and read and practice calligraphy when he has time."

"Hey, Liu Yuanjun really values Brother San Lang so much." Zhao Lushi was really surprised next to him.

Li Xiao was also a little surprised by this gift, this gift is really expensive, how expensive the books are this year, he knew after the last time he bought paper, a piece of paper has to be hundreds of texts, not to mention the high price of at least a thousand yuan to ask someone to copy the book.

A box of books is really worth more than all the belongings of many ordinary people.

When I opened it, I saw that they were all Confucian classics, the Nine Classics of Confucianism, the Three Rites and the Three Transmissions, and the Yishu poems, which were also the scriptures that the Ming Jing and the Ming Dynasty had to take for scholars in the rules of the imperial court.

"The envoy is so loving, Li Xiao is inexplicably grateful, please thank the envoy on his behalf, and he will study hard after returning home, and live up to the expectations of the envoy!"
