In the third hall of the county government, Wang Zhixian looked gloomy and looked at the two people in the hall without saying a word.

Li Qian looked better, only the left side of his face was a little bruised, and he didn't look bad, and his face was unusually calm. But the money warden looked miserable, his face was swollen into a pig's head, not to mention, it is estimated that even his mother can't recognize him------ provided that his wife can live so old.

Although the wound on his face has been treated, and the blood stains have already been wiped clean, the bridge of his nose has been broken by Li Qian, and the entire nose is wrapped with a white bandage, which looks a little funny. In addition, he had many scars on his body, and now he couldn't stand even on his feet, so he had to be supported by a white servant------

Li Qian secretly laughed in his heart, this old guy doesn't seem to have much experience in fighting, and he doesn't know how to protect his face first in a fight.

"Say, why are you beating each other?" Wang Zhixian asked in a deep voice.

"Honor, you have to be the master of your humble duties! Master Li is quite unreasonable, just because I refuse to open the ice cellar for him to get ice, he ------ me" said Qian Warden whimpered in a low voice, and said with a sad face: "Just beat me like this!" ”

Li Qian glanced at him with disdain, and after secretly squirming "old is not ashamed", he arched his hand and said: "Dong Weng Mingjian!" It's really that this old dog is too rampant to take you seriously at all! Not to mention the people around you who were injured, even I, Xixi, dared to openly add up his fists and feet, and regarded the fame of the court as nothing! Not only that, but I also heard with my own ears that he was insulting you! ”

"You------ you bloody mouth!"

The Qian pawn was so angry that he jumped to his feet, he didn't expect that this Master Li still had the ability to open his eyes and talk nonsense casually. was about to defend himself, but saw Wang Zhixian wave his hand and asked Li Qian, "What did he say?" ”

"Well------ Dong Weng really wants to hear this?" Li Qian's face was embarrassed, looking at him with pity and ------ regret in his eyes?

"Uh------"

Wang Zhixian was still suspicious of this matter, but at this time, Li Qian's eyes looked quite uncomfortable, and then he thought that his status in this Qiantang County government was really not high, and he couldn't help but believe seven or eight points. When he looked at the warden Qian again, his eyes were already very unkind.

"Honorable, you can't listen to his side, lowly is slandered by him------"

"Shut up!"

Wang Zhixian drank in a deep voice, and reprimanded with a stern face: "Mr. Li is a guest of this county, you don't treat him politely, but you still treat him so disrespectfully, you go to the torture room to get twenty boards!" ”

"This ------ me ------"

"Don't go yet!" Wang Zhixian was very unhappy with these subordinates, and he was not allowed to make more arguments at this time, just thinking about making a meal first.

"Yes------"

Qian Warden had no choice but to accept the order, and then glared at Li Qian resentfully, and was ready to retreat. Li Qian was unforgiving, and added behind him without being salty: "You have to give me all the medical expenses of Xiao Zhu, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind!" Oh yes, the beating of the two Jinshi is not over. ”

"You ------"

Only then did Qian Dianzhi realize that one point he had been ignoring before was the issue of the unequal identities of the two parties. Now it can be regarded as letting the family hold the door of life, and there is no room for refusal, so I have to say dejectedly: "The villain understands, and I hope that Master Li will not care about the villain and let the villain go." ”

"Hehe------ it's easy to say, it's easy to say." Li Qian waved his hand very generously, and then showed him a smile that he thought was very kind, and said again: "There are still ------."

"What else does Master Li have to order------

Qian Dian's face tightened, for fear that this "smiling tiger" would make any more excessively harsh demands, and he couldn't help but agree------ after all, he has now become meat on the chopping block, and he is only left to be slaughtered.

"It's not a big deal, Qian Lingshi will be busy first, and the key to the ice cellar can be borrowed from me."

“------”

The Qian warden was stunned for a while when he heard this, he knew that he shouldn't make more trouble in this matter------ he handed over a large number of keys very obediently, and then went to the torture room in a gloomy manner------

After he left, Wang Zhixian looked at Li Qian with a complicated gaze.

Li Qian couldn't guess the meaning of this gaze, and his heart was a little weak, so he had to smile dryly and raise the key in his hand: "Heh------ it's too hot this day, so I want to get some ice, Dong Weng also wants to have some?" ”

Wang Zhixian shook his head and said, "If Mr. wants to use it, just say hello to this county, why do you need to make a big deal about it?" ”

"It's not a big deal, so I didn't dare to bother Dong Weng for this."

"Well, how is the injury on the gentleman's body, why didn't Shicai let the doctor take a look?"

"It's just a little injury, it's fine, Dong Weng doesn't need to worry about me." Li Qian replied casually and then gave up.

He knew very well in his heart that Wang Zhixian would not turn his face with himself for a fight, at most he would hold the official frame and reprimand him lightly. Because at the moment, the other party hasn't thought about driving himself away, and the respect he deserves must still be there.

In this regard, Li Qian is very sure in his heart.

After all, in just a few days, because of his arrival, he taught Wang Xiaofat quite well. Not only is it not dereliction of duty, but it is faintly better than the previous two gentlemen, can Wang Zhixian be dissatisfied?

------

Looking at the back of Li Qian's departure, Wang Zhixian's face showed a hint of hesitation.

In the early years, I heard that when some officials went to serve in the local government, they would often bring a staff member with outstanding ability to assist them in quickly grasping local political affairs------ although there was no master in some counties at all, such a thing was not a common practice, but it had long been a norm in the officialdom.

For example, the county magistrate of Renhe, there is a staff member who he brought to take office, and he does have some means to govern the government, and he has more or less earned some fame in the past two years, and his official reputation is much higher than that of his predecessor.

People often say, "Let your officials be as clear as water, and the invincible officials are as smooth as oil."

Wang Zhixian has a deep understanding of this, and these local snakes are too difficult to deal with! If you are in causity, you can play you around when you work together, and in a few days, you will completely empty yourself as an alien magistrate------

But when he saw with his own eyes that Li Qian cleaned up the means of the money wardens, Wang Zhixian couldn't help but think a little bit about it. If Master Li is recruited as a staff member, he must be able to help him recover the current decline and regain power, right?

First of all, he is a local squire, not to mention, his talent has been favored by today's saints, and his ability to govern should not be a problem, as evidenced by the result of the dispute. In three or two clicks, he cleaned up the Qian Ke warden and obeyed it, which is not a means that ordinary people can have.

Wang Zhixian couldn't help but think with some inferiority, could this be the gap between Jinshi and Juren? But when did this scholar of literature and strategy also become good at governing politics and controlling people? Why have you never heard of it------

But thinking about it, he was still very hesitant about whether to let Li Qian enter the curtain as a guest.

The main reason is that Li Qian's status is too high, so that in front of him, Wang Zhixian can't have any sense of superiority at all, and he usually doesn't even dare to hold the official stand. Most of the masters in this year are hopeless, so they have become public people, willing to be staff members to seek opportunities to enter the office, how have you ever heard of two lists of Jinshi to serve as staff?

This road is not the right way in the end, and in the future, you will generally not be able to go too far in the official career, and you will not be able to climb too high in a position. Otherwise, wouldn't it have become a big joke? At present, due to various factors, many officials recommended to join the DPRK are in high positions, but in the future, they will only gradually decrease, and this is something that anyone with a discerning eye can see.

If this is the case for the promoter, it will only be more difficult to get into the position by acting as a staff member. At most, he will mix in the public for more than ten years, and finally become a petty official with a sesame mung bean, and then work for a few more years to return to his hometown and retire for a long time.

To put it simply, the imperial examination is like a smooth road, while the others are rugged paths, and the two cannot be compared at all. He Li Qian, even if he doesn't want to be an official now, how can he be willing to deign to be a small staff?

Another reason that discouraged Wang Zhixian was Li Qian's position.

Li Qian is a local, and those officials are also locals, can he really do his best to help himself, a foreign county commander, deal with his fellow villagers? Strictly speaking, they are the people of the way, and it would be good not to be embarrassed by those people to trap themselves.

Wei Zhixian was worried, and he thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't make up his mind------

------

------

Coming out of the back office, Li Qian began to grin and hummed quietly.

No way, he is not a "martial arts master", and in his previous life, out of hobby, he only learned a few hand-to-hand combat skills.

Skills are skills, and they also require strong physical fitness to better play. Now I'm just a weak scholar, and I usually lack exercise------ well, in fact, I haven't exercised at all, so how can I expect an outbreak at a critical moment? If it weren't for the sneak attack, it wasn't certain who would have the upper hand between himself and the money wardens.

first went to look at Zhu Zhendong, and saw that the other party only suffered some skin trauma, although it looked miserable, but in fact it was not a big problem, and finally let go of his heart.

If it was really because of himself that this little brother was disabled, he would feel very guilty.

At this time, Zhu Zhendong had also woken up, and Li Qian saw that he was in a good state, so he asked: "By the way, I just asked you to get some ice cubes, how can you fight with the Qian Warden?" ”

This question has puzzled him for a long time, and he always knows the answer.

Zhu Zhendong grinned, but accidentally pulled the wound on his face, which made him grin in pain. After coming to his senses, he had already heard about what happened in Qian Ke's room, and at this time, he was only full of gratitude to Li Qian in his heart, and he had no complaints.

Although he has not been in the county government for a long time, he also knows what kind of gap he has with Master Li in terms of status and identity, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a world of difference. But how ridiculous does it sound that such a big man, a Jinshi master, would stand up for his little errand officer? At least, the butcher father in his own family wouldn't believe such nonsense!

However, this is true, and it is happening today, to myself.

After relieving the pain, Zhu Zhendong said: "Actually, the little one doesn't know very well, what is going on with the Qian Warden, although he was a little more horizontal in the past, he didn't have to worry too much about us bitter haha." ”

When Li Qian heard this, he was even more puzzled in his heart, and asked again: "Then what is going on today?" Isn't it that you are catching up with the anger of the money warden and accidentally touching the moldy head? ”

Zhu Zhendong thought for a moment, nodded and said, "When I arrived at Qian Kefang, I did find that Qian Lingshi's face was not very good-looking------

“------”

Li Qian was speechless for a moment, stroked his forehead and said, "I found that people's faces were not good-looking, and you still stepped forward so stupidly and became someone's punching bag?" I said you're a weird kid! ”

"Hey------

Zhu Zhendong scratched his head embarrassedly, and then told Li Qian in detail about the incident.

Li Qian just listened casually, and didn't care too much about what the Qian Warden was angry about. Originally, he came to the yamen to mess around, and the rights and wrongs of others had little to do with him, so after listening to it, he just casually told Zhu Zhendong to take care of his injuries for a few days, and then went to the study.

After delaying for such a long time, I'm afraid that Young Master Yang is already impatient to wait, right?
