Lu Fei said, "I've heard of two different things, Wangfutai, although the lower officials are only shallow in their studies, but they are not enough to make such a big riot in the county, and the lower officials are not clear who is fighting with General Zhang, only ask General Zhang himself, yes, the official is derelict in his duties, and there are some restless people in the county, but after the good words and persuasion of the lower officials, they have sincerely admitted their mistakes to the lower officials, and returned to the imperial court. ”

Wang Guangmei's face was a little unbearable, "Lu Zhixian, everyone knows about it, you can't open your eyes and talk nonsense, even if Zhang Shen doesn't know about the chaos in Susong, but the government camp army is here to help Susong County quell the chaos in the final analysis, and you shouldn't have such an attitude in the law, which makes those soldiers who died under the mountain rest in peace, and they all die in vain."

Lu Fei waved his hand, "Wangfutai, don't talk about this, this official also has some friends in the capital, I heard that the emperor doesn't know anything about the Susong war, I only know that Zhang Shen is leading the army to inspect Jiangnan, and Xia Guan is also wondering, why Zhang Shen will come to my Susong to kill, according to statistics, this time, because of the arrival of the Fuying Army, a total of 760 people were killed, the whole village of Shiqiao Village was killed, more than 1,000 households in the county were robbed, and there were countless incidents of molesting ** people's daughters, Xia Guan was trying to write down all these things, so that he could report them to the emperor, and he Zhang Shen Jiang had a copy, but he didn't expect Zhang Shen General to die of a violent illness, by the way, Wang Futai, you just said that you and Zhang Shen General's idea to come to Su Song to quell the chaos, so you said that Zhang Shen General took the opportunity of the inspection to come to my Su Song to rob and kill the matter was discussed by you in advance, then it is a coincidence, Xia Guan is worried about who to report these losses."

Wang Guangmei's face was red and her neck was thick, she couldn't hold back her anger for a long time, and said angrily, "Susong County, red mouth and white teeth, are you trying to reverse black and white?" ”

Lu Fei did not show weakness, the emperor gave him the rank of the fifth rank of the Zhongyi doctor, no need to use it in vain, and shouted confidently, "Wangfutai, what is black and white, nearly a thousand people have died, this is called black, the lower officials appease the people, calm the people's grievances, and wipe his ass for the sins made by General Zhang Shen, this is white, I have suffered such a big loss in Susong County, you Wangfutai is a mansion honor, but you didn't think of giving the people here a silver or two of pensions, and came to me to talk about post-war matters, talk about the souls of the soldiers who died in the war, Aren't you afraid of being drowned by the saliva of the people of Susong? The soldiers of the government camp army died and the military department has its own pension, will it be my turn to stay in Song County? ”

Wang Guangmei was so angry that her body trembled for a while, "This government, this government will ask you, this 100,000 taels of military expenses, you Susong County is duty-bound, this government informs you in the capacity of the prefect of Anqing, this money is all from Susong County, and you are limited to transport the silver taels to Anqing within three months, there must be no mistakes."

Lu Fei smiled, smiled very chicly, nodded slowly, squinted his eyes and said, "Lord Wang, Wang Futai, you finally said what you thought in your heart, what post-war matters, what kind of pension soldiers are all nonsense, you just want me to help you make up for the deficit of 100,000 taels, right?"

Wang Guangmei flicked her sleeves, "What is the deficit, this is military expenditure, the military expenditure used in your Susong County, remember, three months, this government will give you three months, don't think that you are the county governor of the five products, this government has always been your constitution, and it is still reasonable to open your lack of this mansion"

The desperate Wang Guangmei put down the cruel words and was about to leave, without giving Lu Fei any chance to refute. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Lu Fei smiled, "Wangfutai is such a big official, 100,000 taels of silver have to be loaded with a lot of cars."

Wang Guangmei stopped when she heard this, and was a little excited, "Lord Lu has already prepared 100,000 taels, so good, this mansion will just take it back by the way."

Lu Fei waved his hand and said, "No, no, it's not for you, this 100,000 taels is what the lower officials are going to ask you for, oh no, it's not for you, it's for application, it just so happens that you are here today, so you can save me from running to Anqing, no, this official first came to Susong to take office, and the size is also an official, and I also want to leave a name in history in the future, how to do it, well, yes, political achievements, for this reason, the lower officials have made an excerpt to the emperor, one, open a stone factory in the mountain, two, overhaul the river embankment, three, transform the big game lake into a world-famous scenic spot, at present, The emperor has approved the matter of the mountain stone factory, and the other two must have no reason for the emperor to object, Lord Wang, you also know that it is not necessary to spend money on what to do, especially for the benefit of future generations, and the silver is much more expensive."

Wang Guangmei snorted, "Lu Zhixian is ambitious, he wants to make a name for himself, and the government supports it, you just let it go, and after the matter is completed, the government will ask the emperor for credit for you."

Lu Fei hehe, "Lord Futai, you have served in Susong County, there are a few taels of silver in this county, you have to do these big things, it is definitely not possible to rely on the county government alone, whether you are close to the family or not, Susong County is a small county under the rule of your Wangfutai, you see, the Futai Yamen is not a little bit of silver, I don't want much, as long as 100,000 taels, the carriage is ready, you can go and pull it over at any time, master, come in and come in, and report it to Lord Futai for a look."

Li Shun has been standing outside the door, and walked in when he heard the words, but how could he report it, the master sang it, he only had a draft of the plan to ask the emperor for silver, and just when he had nothing to do, Lu Fei came over and took out the fold from his arms.

"Lord Futai, this is all listed very clearly, you can't take it back to see, it's just 100,000 taels" Lu Fei handed the fold to Wang Guangmei.

Wang Guangmei couldn't cry or laugh, reached out and took the fold in front of her, and threw it on the ground without looking at it, "Joke, Lu Zhixian, you can really calculate, you want to make political achievements, but you want my government yamen to help you with money"

Lu Fei said with a smile, "No, no, this is not only the political achievements of the lower officials, but also for the benefit of the people of the county, and I will not hide it from you, these projects, among which the county has paid 100,000 taels of silver, and the Ma Mansion of Zhao County has contributed 600,000 taels of silver, and the emperor has allocated 20,000 taels for the matter of the mountain stone factory, my lord, you see that the emperor is leading by example, if you don't express it, is it a little unreasonable, to add, among these three things, the transformation of the Great Lake is a private matter of the Ma family of Zhao County, and the lower official is just an errand runner."

Wang Guangmei is bitter now, originally came to ask for an account, but now the account is not to be owed 100,000 taels in a blink of an eye, which makes sense, but Lu Fei said that there are words, the emperor doesn't matter, and the county horse mansion also paid money, this is a big deal, but there is no such expenditure in the budget of Anqing Mansion this year, and the previous 100,000 taels to Zhang Shen have already embezzled tax silver, and the previous account has not been written off, where can I take out the silver again.

Wang Guangmei's momentum leaked more than half, "Since the emperor is an example of the world, and the government is also doing its best, the military expenses of 100,000 taels will not need to be transported to Anqing, and the right to do your part for Susong County is the right to do your part, so you can do it yourself, farewell"

Wang Guangmei turned around and fled, for fear that Lu Fei would catch up with him and ask him for silver.

Lu Fei waved his hand at him, "Thank you for your generosity, any day the official will definitely tell the emperor about the adult's heart for the people, go well, forgive me for not sending it far."

Only then did Li Shun understand that a fake booklet had deceived the powerful Futai adults.

Li Shun said, "Master, doesn't this mean that you admit that the 100,000 taels of military expenses were indeed given to General Zhang?" You're not afraid."

Lu Fei snorted and smiled, "Okay, no matter how I say it, he is also my constitution, he controls me everywhere, it will be beneficial to us in the future to offend him a little, he doesn't dare to apply for military expenses, otherwise he would have defended himself to the court and would not have come to me, this person, he has been an official for decades, he has already figured out the above ideas, and he will be so stupid to bump into the matter that the emperor doesn't admit it."

Li Shun nodded and said, "Then sir, what is the 100,000 taels of engineering silver you asked him for?" ”

"I'm, he won't come to make trouble for me, Amitabha, now it's okay, we don't owe him silver, it's flat, do you believe it or not, in the future, this old boy will have to go around the road when he sees me"

No one knew that the 100,000 taels of money, food, and military expenses that Wang Guangmei handed over to General Zhang had already been robbed by Li Zhong and handed over to Lu Fei to hide in the fishing village, which became his private money.

At this time, Zhao Bantou ran to the flower hall and whispered, "Master, it's been found out, the mastermind behind the rumors a few days ago has been found."

"Who is it?" Lu Fei was very interested, what other opponents did not show up in this Susong City.

"You have seen this person, master, it is the same Li Dashao who made a generous move in the 'Huancai Immortal Pavilion' a month ago and wanted to redeem the eldest lady."

"Hehe, yes, it's not that the enemies don't get together, he still has a trick up his sleeve for this matter, and the lust heart doesn't die."

"Master, do you want to arrest it, this slip of the tongue outside is getting farther and farther"

"No, it's better to work hard than anything else, and now I don't have time to fight with him, I'll talk about it later, team leader, go, call the big-eyed sunspots, let's open the road to Hangzhou, and go to the mountains and rivers to eat, drink and have fun."

Li Shun said with a smile, "Master, it should be said that it is to observe and learn from the scriptures, this is a business trip"

Lu Fei laughed, "It's all the same, master, go, go to the tent and get me 20,000 taels of silver."

Li Shun was taken aback, "So many? ”

"Look at you like that, the poor family is rich, what kind of place is Hangzhou, I don't think I have enough to bring it, also, inform Yun Niang and Ling Ning, go on the road in the afternoon, and the county will be handed over to you Old Master Li to cook."

Li Shun was stunned again, "Master, didn't you say yesterday that Miss Ling had a pure heart, and I was afraid that she would be spoiled by the flower world in Hangzhou?" ”

Lu Fei patted Li Shun's shoulder, "Young Master Li's thief heart is not dead, my lord I am not at home, let such a big beauty here, or bring peace of mind, besides, Ling Ning was born in the countryside, take it out for a long time, isn't there a saying, it is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles"

Li Shun retreated and muttered, "Why is it all reasonable for you to say?"

In the afternoon, the two carriages left the county government and headed in the direction of Hangzhou.

……

Nanchang Mansion, Ning Wang's Mansion.

Yunxiao, who has been married for two years, entered his mother Zhang's house as soon as he returned to his mother's house, and the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried each other, complaining of endless family care and endless mother-daughter love.

Just as the mother and daughter were immersed in the warmth, there was a sound of eager footsteps, a 'bump', and then the door was pushed open.

"Second sister, second sister" A son, who was about twenty years old and dressed luxuriously but with a childish face, rushed into the room and glanced around, his face full of joy and expectation.

"Ji'er, such an adult, and so frizzy," his mother Zhang scolded with a smile on her face.

"Gongji" Yunxiao moved away from his mother's shoulder, ran over overjoyed, and took the hand of the visitor, "You also know that my sister is back"

Princess Ning Zhang, a total of two children, one is the county lord of Yunxiao who was named the county lord to marry Li Yan, the county lord of Anqing Mansion, the other is two years younger than Li Yan, and is also the only son of King Ning Li Gongji, the rules in the palace and the competition for fame and fortune between the rooms, so that the relationship between the two sisters and brothers is very dissolving, when Li Yan was a child, Li Yan always fought with the children born in the side room of King Ning, and Li Gongji, who was a head taller than his sister since he was a child, always rushed to come out and beat the other party to cry, for which he was also punished by King Ning.

"Sister, you're back, it's been two years, and I'm about to die of my brother" Li Gongji took his sister's hand, as close as when he was a child.

Yunxiao was sullen all day long in Zhao's mansion, and he could only show his joy in front of his relatives, and his younger brother was still so tall and handsome, and he cared about his sister in the same way, "My sister is married, how can I say that I will come back, how are you doing in the past two years?" Have you ever caused trouble on the street again?"

Li Gongji looked aggrieved, "Sister, how can there be, since you got married, my father always doesn't let me go out, and I follow a few masters every day to learn the art of war, and I have nothing to do, and I also summoned a bunch of old masters to come to the mansion and tell me what allusions to governing the country and the country, I am annoyed to death, I want to go to Anqing to see you several times, but my father just won't let me, I, the son of King Ning, is really not as free as ordinary people's children."

Li Gongji thought that all the grievances he thought were complained to his sister, and only his sister was the object he confided in.

His mother, Zhang, was busy saying, "I'm talking nonsense again, your father is all for your good."

Li Gongji walked to the table with an indifferent face, picked up the fruit on the table and ate it, and said casually, "Where is it good, I have grown so big, I have been to the city gate farthest, and the most friends are just a bunch of people in the family, I am the son of the world, wealth has long been doomed, what is the use of learning these, if I have a choice, I really want to learn from Cao Zijian in the Three Kingdoms, poetry and lyrics, wind and snow, how happy"

Li Yan chuckled, took her mother's arm and walked to the table, and said with a smile, "I really didn't see it, Brother Hong still has the yearning for a romantic talent, mother, why don't you let him write a poem for us now?"

"Well, good idea, Cao Zijian became famous when he was young, he can become a poem in seven steps, he is talented, the prince of Ning Wangfu also wants to be a literati, and my mother really wants to hear it" Zhang's family has rarely been out of the palace since her daughter got married, and most of the day is spent in the nunnery to read the manager Buddha, and today her children are in the same house, which makes her feel uncomfortable.

Li Gongji was chewing grapes in his mouth, and when he heard this, his face was embarrassed, and he ground a few grape seeds in his mouth, which was extremely bitter, "Writing poetry here?" ”

Yunxiao tore one from the bunch of grapes in his hand and put it in his mouth, and said with a smile, "Li Dacaizi, how about making a poem with this grape as the title?" ”

Li Gongji just said casually, where would he compose any poems, holding the grapes, stunned, with a sad smile on his face, after a while he saw the mother and daughter's eyes that didn't believe it at all, he suddenly said, "Do it, listen, um......"
