"Ah, County Lieutenant Duan, you haven't left yet, you have just taken office, and you are so diligent, you are really an example for us. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Seeing Duan Jian appear, the officials and messengers in the house were stunned for a moment, and then a man with a full beard and a man who looked to be in his thirties stood up and said with a smile to Duan Jian.

Seeing the beard that spoke, Duan Jian knew that this person's name was Qiao Zhong, and he was one of the two head catchers in Chang'an County, because he had something to do with Meng Dayi, and he was good at winning over people, and in the entire Chang'an County government, he was powerful, and he had no status in the backlog of another soldier-born head catcher.

Don't look at the head catcher is not an official, just a small official, but in other places, they are the most important people in a county government, as the head of the violent organization in the yamen, many times, even the county order has to give him a little thin face, and even, like Duan Jian, a county lieutenant like Facao, if there is no cooperation of these headhunters, it is a clay sculpture of a bodhisattva, and he has no rights at all.

"Yes, a certain thing has been delayed because of this, what, Qiao Zhutou, what are you doing, I remember, the imperial court stipulates that no one in the yamen is allowed to gather to gamble, doesn't Qiao Zhutou know?" Duan Jian said sharply as he glanced around the room.

Hearing Duan Jian's very unceremonious tone, the expression on Qiao Zhong's face was a little unsightly, but he was also a thoughtful person, no matter how dissatisfied he was, on the surface, he still said with a smile like Duan Jian, "Hey, this..... Hahaha, County Lieutenant Duan also knows that the brothers are usually very tired, isn't this not inappropriate, just relax and relax, you see, except for these brothers who are not on duty, those who are on duty, none of them are here, Captain Duan forgive me, forgive me. ”

"That's what I said, brothers usually work hard, and I know it, but the rules of the court are rules, this is an iron law, and it cannot be violated, you better put these things away quickly, and don't take them out in the yamen in the future, otherwise, if you let someone see it, don't blame you for being polite, when the time comes, you and I don't look good on our faces, you say yes, Qiao catches the head." Duan Jian didn't care about Qiao Zhong's expression and attitude at all, but said unceremoniously.

After Duan Jian finished speaking, he saw that the expression on Qiao Zhong's face had finally changed, and he lived up to the flattery just now, but his face was cold, mixed with some disdain. It's a pity that Qiao Zhong's expressions were destined to be useless, and after Duan Jian finished speaking, he turned around and walked outside the yamen.

"Head, head, see if we're putting these things away." Seeing Duan Jian walking away, a servant behind Qiao Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Looking at Duan Jian's back as he left, when Qiao Zhong was still in a daze, he was suddenly awakened by this officer, and then, Qiao Zhong didn't know what to think, as soon as he raised his hand suddenly, he heard a 'snap', and slapped him the face of the officer, and immediately slapped him aside, and then said viciously to everyone, "Collect, what to collect, a broken county lieutenant, what is it, who is this Chang'an County, you all know in your hearts, as long as we have Meng County covered, what can a county lieutenant do to me, It's really going to force us, it's a big deal to give him a good look. ”

When many officials and messengers heard Qiao Zhong's words, they all echoed loudly, and some of them also set up their stalls again, and they were in full swing.

At this time, Duan Jian did not go far, but listened to the movement here at the corner in front of him, and after hearing Qiao Zhong's words, his face couldn't help but show a trace of coldness.

'The opportunity is for you, since you don't want it, then don't blame me for being rude, my goal is not to allow anyone to change, since you cannot be my assistant in the way forward, then I can only eliminate you. Duan Jian said to himself as he walked.

....................

After yesterday's scene, Duan Jian knew that he and Qiao Zhong had completely torn their faces, and there would definitely be a big battle to fight next, but what he didn't expect was that the battle would start so quickly.

The next day, when Duan Jian just came to the county government of Chang'an County, he saw a servant waiting for him at his door, this servant Duan Jian knew, and as long as it was a person from the county government of Chang'an County, he was very familiar with it, it was Meng Dayi's personal attendant, Meng Liang.

"The slave has seen the county lieutenant Duan, and the Duke of Ming asked the slave to come over and invite the county lieutenant Duan to his public house for a preface, saying that there is something important to discuss." Meng Liang said respectfully to Duan Jian.

"Oh, okay, please lead the way, so-and-so go now." Hearing Meng Liang's words, Duan Jian knew that Meng Dayi must have come for yesterday's events, fortunately, for this kind of scene, he had already been mentally prepared, and he was not stage frightened at all, and followed Meng Liang towards Meng Dayi's public house.

In Meng Dayi's public house, Duan Jian and the others' public house was not far away, only dozens of steps, and in a few breaths, they arrived, and then, Meng Liang did not say goodbye, but directly took Duan Jian into the public house.

"Ah, hahaha, the extraordinary is here, make it quickly, this tea will be boiled immediately, you will definitely taste it when the time comes." Seeing Duan Jian coming in, Meng Dayi said with a smile.

Seeing Meng Dayi like this, Duan Jian was not in a hurry, just sat on the side, watching Meng Dayi busy working, the tea of the Tang Dynasty was not like that of later generations, just brewed with hot water, but like making soup, you need to add their own seasonings, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, it can be said that there are five flavors, and ordinary people really can't stand it, like Duan Jian, who is used to drinking that kind of light tea in later generations, when he sees this kind of tea, he avoids it.

Watching Meng Dayi put all kinds of spices on the table into the small kettle in the middle little by little as if he was doing an experiment, Duan Jian was amused in his heart, so, after most of the day, Meng Dayi's face showed a satisfied look, it seemed that it was successfully cooked, but unfortunately, when asked about the pungent smell in the air, Duan Jian felt uncomfortable for a while.

"Hahaha, okay, it's finally good, this is the best yellow bud, I found a lot of people to ask for such a little, and today I can share it with Bufan, which can be regarded as making the best use of it." Meng Dayi scooped out two bowls of black soup from the small kettle with a spoon, picked up a bowl and handed it over like Duan Jian.

If it was another time, Duan Jian would definitely not drink it, but now he had to take it, so he had to take it head-on, and thanked Meng Dayi like Meng Dayi.

"Come on, come on, taste it, see how it tastes, such a good tea, it is also the first time to cook, if it is not good, don't dislike it." Meng Dayi smiled like Duan Jian persuaded him.

I'm sorry, there is a power outage at home today, and I can't update it, I hope you understand.
