Another three months passed.

What kind of temper this new county magistrate is, everyone in the county can be regarded as having a clear understanding.

Good to talk about pomp, love face, greedy and extravagant, like luxury. is also young and frivolous, and can't see others surpass him. An image of a slightly learned, but poor virtue, is firmly established.

In short, the casual set that used to be in Liu Qingming's place can't be used here.

However, this did not prevent Shen Xi from slapping his beard whenever he found an opportunity.

After a long time, Shen Xi really found some things that were quite beneficial to him.

For example, this person doesn't like everything about his predecessor Liu Qingming very much, and sometimes even deliberately refutes Liu Qingming in order to raise his image.

Shen Xi has also become a celebrity around Zhang Yan through touting from time to time, and many things even skip Hu Cao and report to Zhang Yan. After a long time, when Zhang Yan is doing some private things, he also likes to bring this guy who speaks well.

The county can see it clearly, and in another half a year, I am afraid that the position of this household Cao will be Shen Xi's turn.

Of course, there is slander.

Thinking about it, everyone was still on the same starting line at the beginning, but Shen Xi slapped his beard and slapped his horse, and he was expected to become a foreign official in an instant. This change of identity is not as simple as dozens of dollars more.

has been mixed up for a long time, and it is even possible to enter the product. Even being a prefectural magistrate is possible, provided that you are lucky enough and live long enough.

In the blink of an eye, it was another Yuan Xi.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the current emperor officially announced the change of the yuan, and the whole world seems to have forgotten the death of the previous emperor. Those who should be looking for pleasure, continue to have fun, and no one will talk about this anymore.

Zhang Yan is a dime a dime, so naturally he doesn't hold any literary meetings like Liu Qingming.

On the night of Yuan Xi, Shen Xi couldn't help it after all, and was ready to attack Shen Yun.

He doesn't want others to stand on top of his head, so even if Zhang Yan knows that Songhe Tower is the highest restaurant in the city, he doesn't want to take a step. Because the fourth layer is occupied by Zhang Shi'an tonight, it is the celebrities of Qinzhou who are entertained.

Zhang Yan's behavior made Zhang Shi'an very displeased, as a Zhizhou, he would not please an old guy who had already become a leader. Zhang Yan's ugly deeds in Chengji County were not stabbed, and he was already giving Zhang Sheng a lot of face.

Therefore, Zhang Shi'an had no intention of inviting Zhang Yan at all for this kind of banquet.

I was underestimated in my heart, but after all, Zhang Shi'an is still a Shangguan, and no matter how stupid Zhang Yan is, he can only scold a few words in his heart. Shen Xi could only set the place for the banquet in the second-highest Talking and Laughing Pavilion.

There are only three floors in the Talking and Laughing Pavilion, but it is enough, at least, except for Zhang Shi'an, no one is sitting higher than Zhang Yan now.

Shen Xi also deliberately invited a few top brands of Qinglou to come over to serve wine.

Originally, it was a leather and meat business, and if it wasn't for sending pillows outside, the women in the building were not allowed to go to other places at will. However, since it is the magistrate who has to serve, those mothers who laugh and fall down with fat powder can't wait to be sent to the Talking and Laughing Pavilion immediately.

In the end, it is a young man, although his face is full of disgust for these songs, but he can be coaxed by these women to say a few sentences, pour a few glasses of wine, and when he is drunk and confused, he is more and more open.

opened his mind and held a woman in his arms, Zhang Yan happily wrote a poem: "There are more than 10,000 delicacies on the plate, and the delicate flowers in my arms." Wine and delicacies have passed through the intestines, and I linger among the flowers. ”

"The county is really full of economy, and the export is a chapter, which is in line with the situation. Really leave a good story for me Chengji County. I'm afraid of this talking and laughing pavilion, and I will have to thank the county lord for his favor in the future. ”

The bullshit-like verses made Shen Xi praise the masterpiece that has been sung through the ages.

However, Zhang Yan didn't have any self-knowledge at all, and when he heard such flattery, he nodded with a smile: "Hahaha, you still know me." ”

"It's just ......" Shen Xi looked like he wanted to say something.

"It's just what, Shen Xi, you don't want to give you some face, you just want to turn the sky upside down. Tell me something quickly, don't disturb my appetite for wine. ”

Zhang Yan scolded like this, but opened his mouth to swallow the wine that the head of the card fed with his mouth. The warmth of the sandalwood mouth and the mellow aroma of the wine, Zhang Yan couldn't help but feel a little more awake to the power of the world and the feeling of being drunk on the knees of the beauty.

Shen Xi knew that he was planning the same thing, and it was finally going to be done at this time. I was secretly pleasantly surprised, but there was a look of embarrassment on my face.

Under Zhang Yan's angry reprimand, Shen Yun finally said in a hesitant voice: "The county lord doesn't know something. On this day last year, Liu Qingming allocated some money and grain from the treasury and invited Qinzhou celebrities to hold a literary meeting in Songhe Tower. ”

"Hmph." Zhang Yan glanced at Shen Xi coldly. That meaning, Shen Xi understands very well, this is clearly dissatisfied with which pot he doesn't open.

Zhang Yan also wanted to hold this literary meeting, but many scholars in Qinzhou were secretly dissatisfied with Zhang Yan's bad behavior, and they didn't reply to Zhang Yan at all. To hold a banquet or not to hold a banquet?

As soon as Zhang Shi'an invited him, those guys went one after another, and there was really no discipline.

Shen Xi said in a panic: "I heard a lot of discussions on the street today, all of which accuse the county of being inferior to the predecessor. But what's worse is that some people say that the county lord doesn't even have the courage of a little scholar. ”

"What?" Zhang Yan slapped the table fiercely, startling the prostitute sitting in his arms.

Shen Xi hurriedly exclaimed: "The county respects the sin, and what the little one said is true." ”

Shen Xi's previous words had touched Zhang Yan's bottom line, and although Zhang Yan was drunk at this time, he was scratched in the sore spot, how could he let it go easily: "Tell me, which little scholar am I not as good as?" ”

In the three words of little scholar, Zhang Yan is particularly heavy.

Shen Xi hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The county lord forgives the sin, saying that this person has something to do with the little one." I only ask the county lord not to punish the small, and the small dare to speak. ”

"Say, if it weren't for you, wouldn't I have been kept in the dark."

"But it's Shen Yun of Niu'an Fort, nineteen years old. Speaking of which, it's still my own nephew. However, this person is a cloth cloth, but he is arrogant, as early as more than a year ago, he set up his own door and wall, and broke off the relationship with us. ”

The drunken Zhang Yan didn't pay attention to these, but asked: "Tell me, how can I be inferior to such a hairy boy?" ”

This time Zhang Yanke is very serious, under his own rule, there are guys who are better than himself and younger than himself? How can this be.

"Back to the county's words, but it was last year's Wenhui, which was proposed by Shen Yun to Liu Qingming. According to legend, it was to allow Liu Qingming to gain a lot of official and popular voices, so as to get the praise of the Ministry of Officials. ”

"In fact, as expected by that guy, after the Ministry of Officials came down, they gave Liu Qingming an evaluation and were directly transferred to the south as the prefect."

After adding oil and vinegar, Shen Xi described how powerful Shen Yun was. Even though he knew that Shen Yun couldn't do this at all, in order to arouse Zhang Yan's anger, he still kept making up lies.

As he spoke, Zhang Yan suddenly shouted: "Enough." Today, I just want to get drunk and lie among the flowers, these bad things, remember to remind me tomorrow, and when I am sober, I will deal with it. ”

Shen Xi smiled, his purpose had been completely achieved. At this time, he leaned on Zhang Yan, closed his mouth, and just accompanied Zhang Yan to eat and drink.

After the day, Shen Xi helped Zhang Yan into a sedan chair, carried him to the county office, and sent him to the back office with Zhang Yan's staff to rest, and after thanking the staff, he returned home happily.

In the end, Nariki Prefecture is not as good as Tokyo, and the Shangyuan Festival will be celebrated for three consecutive days.

Last night was a night of jubilation, and today we are still on track.

Zhang Yan woke up very early in the morning, drank too much wine, and slept all night with his mouth open, and his throat was already dry and uncomfortable. got up and drank some sobering soup, and then was waited by a few maidservants to put on official clothes and walk to the front office.

I have to say that Zhang Yan still has a very good way of governing the place. Many people do not dare to come to the county government until now because of their disputes. If the village elders can solve it, the village elders will solve it, and if they can't solve it, they would rather fight each other.

Zhang Yan walked into the front office, which was just a routine.

After sitting for a long time, he was still fine, and returned to the back office with great interest, and suddenly remembered that Shen Xi seemed to have said something to him last night.

"Call Shen Xi over to him. By the way, bring me a pot of tea. "I don't say that I have poured several glasses of water in a row, but I just say that the kettle is too small, and after a few drinks, it will be gone.

The messenger on duty at the door hurriedly walked towards Hu Cao, and his heart was not happy. Shen Xi is really thick-faced, and he dares to say anything disgusting, and this county lord is really a bastard, so he will be used in a daze.

shouted at Shen Xi angrily, and the messenger hurried back.

Shen Xi didn't care what others thought of him, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, he straightened his clothes, slowly walked out of Hucao's duty room, and walked to the back office.

After entering the back office, seeing Zhang Yan putting down the water cup, Shen Xi hurriedly greeted the salute, so he asked: "County Zun, I don't know what happened to call the little one over?" ”

"Pretend, you're pretending to me. Shen Xi, let me ask you, is what you told me last night true? Zhang Yan immediately thought about it and asked in a fierce voice.

"County Zun, what the little one said is true. That Shen Yun got a lot of benefits from Liu Qingming, almost five taels of silver. The small one is only three taels a year, which is still stained with the light of the county. Thinking about that guy with a cloth clothes, he got such benefits casually, and he really had nothing to say. ”

"Oh? Then you come and tell me, what benefits did Liu Qingming give him? ”

Zhang Yan asked, and Shen Xideng cried: "Please also ask the county to make the decision for me." endured humiliation for more than a year, and the little one really wanted not to mention it for the rest of his life. When the county respected asked today, the little one gave up his old face and made it clear that Liu Qingming colluded with Shen Yun to persecute me and other Shen clans. ”

Kneeling on the ground, Shen Xi slowly told Zhang Yan the story he had already thought of. is nothing more than distorting right and wrong, making Zhang Yan mistakenly think that Shen Yun is really in cahoots with Liu Qingming.

After listening to Shen Xi's story, the indignant Zhang Yan said angrily: "You get up and see how I make decisions for you." ”
