Yuanhang had a big meal in the dark of the restaurant, and the officials that Li Long introduced to him barely remembered a few. But there is one person who sails away but remembers it deeply, that is, the master of the county guard yamen - Li Mo.

The county guard house is the county guard yamen, the front is the yamen, and the back is the mansion. Since it was rumored that he had come to take up his post on a long voyage, the family members of the former Liu County Shou moved out. Yuanhang asked a few dark spirits to carry him around the mansion, only to understand that it was indeed the iron Yamen Running Water Officer. The mansion is not small, but it is very dilapidated. They all understand this truth, so no one in the previous county guards will use their own money to repair the official mansion.

Yuanhang returned to the living room and sat down, Tang Ling came over to make tea for Yuanhang, and said, "Young Master, Master Li saw that you didn't bring your family, so he sent two maids over, and asked if he needed to send someone to bring your family. ”

"Oh, you don't have to pick it up first, they still have to take care of the restaurant, and now they can't leave Jingzhou." Yuanhang took a sip of tea and asked, "How are the two maids?" ”

"It's not bad, the appearance is okay, and the figure is good." Tang Ling replied with a smile.

"Whew! Where did you learn this? I'm asking you how they work. Yuanhang glared at Tang Ling and asked.

"Oh, I haven't seen it yet, I'll keep an eye on it." Tang Lingnuo replied, thinking that he didn't learn it after following you.

As he was talking, Li Mo walked in, and after saluting Yuanhang, he said, "My lord, the lower official is here to inform you of the daily process, I don't know ...... adults."

"Master Li, it's just in time, I'm also looking for you." Yuanhang put down the teacup and said.

"Oh, I don't know what the Lord is looking for?" Li Mo asked humbly.

"It's no big deal, it's just that I thank my master for choosing a maid for me." Yuanhang looked at Li Mo with a smile.

"My lord, that maid was sent by Li Shoubei, but because I was in charge of the affairs of the yamen, it was directly handed over to me." Li Mo stood aside and replied in a proper manner.

"Is it a maid sent by Li Long?" The voyage inadvertently raised his voice.

"Yes, sir. If you feel that you are not used to it, the lower official will immediately replace you. Li Mo said.

"Oh, not really." Yuanhang drank tea, but his mind was quickly analyzing. Putting down the teacup, Yuanhang asked again: "Master, last time I was ordered to enter the back hall and pass through Qianling, it was the official who you went to the post station to greet you. ”

"It's a subordinate official, adults have a good memory." Li Mo replied with a smile.

"Since the county guard is not there, he should be guarded to go, why did you go?" Yuanhang stared at Li Mo and asked.

"On that day, the lower official once reported to Li Shoubei, and the garrison seemed to have something else to do, so he had to go down to the official." Li Mo replied with no unusual expression.

"Master, do you recognize the exhibition envoy?" Yuanhang asked again.

"Xia Guan didn't recognize it. It was the first time we met. Li Mo replied.

"Oh, okay, master teach me how to be this county guard." Yuanhang smiled and changed the subject.

"There are no big things every day, small things can be handled by me and the head catcher. If there is a major event, you need to be promoted to the church, such as the people beating the drums, major events, etc. And then there is that every three days, the county below will send a fold, and adults can understand the affairs of each county after reading it. Li Mo said it in one breath, and Yuanhang remembered to ask Tang Ling to serve tea.

"How many county seats are there in Qianling County?" Yuanhang asked.

"Back to your lordship, Qianling is a big county, and there are a total of ten counties below. When the adults came that day, the county commanders of the ten counties all came to pick up the wind for the adults. Li Moxin said, just look at you and eat, no one remembers.

"No, I remember. I was tired all the way that day, and I didn't thank you properly. In this way, master, you can send a letter on my behalf, and ask the ten county magistrates to come to my house in three days, and I will get to know them well. Yuanhang thought of a good idea, and his face blossomed.

"Yes, the lower officials will go to draft it, and they will be sent out today. If the adults are fine, the next official will go first. Li Mo got up and saluted.

"It's okay, it's nothing, the master will go and get busy." Yuanhang smiled and waved his hand.

When Li Mo left, Yuanhang lost a smile on his face. Think on your own as you sit in your chair. Li Mo took the initiative to tell himself that the maid was sent by Li Long, was it a hint that I should be more vigilant, or did I say it unintentionally? He said that he greeted the official mission that day, and Li Long had other things to do and couldn't go, is there anything more important than this? Li Mo can completely say that it would be better if Li Long is sick. Since he has not defended Li Long, it seems that Li Mo and Li Long are not in the same camp. He said that he had never seen Zhan Hu, but when Lord Zhan talked to him that day, it was clear that he was an acquaintance, why did Li Mo deliberately hide it? But since Master Zhan wants me to pay attention to Li Long, I will first use Li Mo for my own use.

"Tang Ling, you go and call those two maids." Yuanhang turned his head and ordered Tang Lingdao.

"Yes, young master." Tang Ling ran out.

After a while, Tang Ling walked in with two maids. The two maids came forward and knelt down.

"Slave Qiushui, the spring moon greets the adults." The two said in unison.

"Excuse me, get up and speak." Yuanhang looked at the two men carefully. It's really like what Tang Ling said, he looks and has a good figure, and his age is similar to Tang Ling.

"Where were you going to be a maid before you came here?" Yuanhang asked tentatively deliberately.

"Back to my lord, it's on the garrison." Qiushui raised his head and replied with big eyes in a blink.

"Oh, are you all serving Lord Li in the garrison mansion?" Yuanhang then asked.

"Lord Hui, the slave maid is serving the third aunt, and Chunyue is serving Lord Li." Qiushui replied very simply.

"I see." Yuanhang looked at Chunyue again and asked, "Chunyue, how long have you been in the garrison mansion?" ”

"The slave maid has been in the garrison for more than three years." Chunyue replied a little timidly.

"Where's Qiushui?" Yuanhang looked at Qiushui again and asked.

"Back to my lord, the slave maid has been in the house for less than half a year." Qiushui replied.

"Oh, in that case, Qiushui will stay by my side to serve, and Chunyue will serve in the outer house." After the voyage finished speaking, he waved them down.

Seeing the two of them walk out, Yuanhang said with a sneer. "Self-defeating."

"Young Master, what did you say?" Tang Ling leaned over and asked.

"You have to pay more attention to these two maids, especially that Qiushui, I can conclude that she was sent by Li Long to spy on me. That spring moon is also suspicious, so you should pay more attention to it. Yuanhang whispered to Tang Ling.

"How does the young master know that it's the autumn water and not the spring moon? Tang Ling asked puzzled. ”

"Stupid! If Chunyue has really been a maid for three years, how can she not even know how to reply to the master? Look at the autumn water, you know the etiquette of replying, and every time you talk back, you must say first, back to the adult. If this autumn water is really only a maid for half a year, then wouldn't this spring moon be a maid for three years in vain? So I concluded that they were lying. Yuanhang told Tang Ling his analysis.

"Young master, since Qiushui is like this, why do you still keep her by your side, but put Chunyue in the outer mansion?" The more Tang Ling listened, the more confused he became.

"If you want to capture the old and indulge, that Qiushui should be a henchman who serves Li Long, but he deliberately said that he is serving the third aunt. And Qiushui has become a young woman at a young age, I am afraid that it is what Li Long did. Yuanhang continued.

"Huh? Young master, how do you know this? Tang Ling asked in disbelief.

"Your young master, I can tell by looking at the walking posture." Yuanhang said to Tang Ling with a wicked smile.

"Young master, teach me this trick." Tang Ling came over with a grin.

"Get out of the way, go prepare a sedan chair for me, and go to Lord Situ's mansion." Yuanhang laughed and scolded. said: "Go and call August again." ”

Tang Ling ran out, and August walked in a moment later.

"Your Excellency, you summoned me?" August Shi Lidao.

Yuanhang called her to his side and said, "There are two things that you need to handle. First, send someone to watch over the maid named Qiushui, except for sleeping, you must know what else she does, and report to me if there is anything suspicious. Second, to contact the dark spirits in the ten counties under Qianling County, I want to know the detailed identities of those county orders and what things they have done, I need to catch some of their handles, you know? ”

"Understand, my lord, I'll handle it." August turned around and was leaving.

"August, be quick, I'll know tomorrow." Yuanhang instructed.

"Don't worry, sir." August answered, and walked out without looking back.

Yuanhang looked at August's back and smiled, this girl has a personality.

Yuanhang limped into the living room of Situ Mansion, and Situ Zhongda laughed when he saw Yuanhang.

"After a few days, Ye Gongzi has become a county guard, haha."

"The adults laughed, Xiao Ke will always be a junior in front of your old age." Yuanhang said modestly.

"Okay, the official can still have such humility so far, the old man has not mistaken people." Situ Zhongda nodded with a smile.

Yuanhang took out Situ Hao's letter from his bosom and handed it to Situ Zhongda and said, "After returning from the back hall, my uncle asked me to deliver this letter to you. Late life did not dare to delay. ”

"Hmm." Situ Zhongda opened the letter and read it, and laughed when he read it. said: "Yuanhang, you dare to fight with Gonggong Chen on the top of the hall, it is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers." ”

"The adults laughed, and the late life only respects the respectable. If it is a person without virtue, no matter who is born later, he will not be afraid. Yuanhang straightened up and said.

"Yes, young people should be more stubborn." Szeto praised the voyage. said, "Has your foot injury improved?" ”

"Thank you for your concern, I've seen a better place, and I can land lightly." Yuanhang looked down at his feet and replied.

Yuanhang didn't see Situ Yilan come out of the mansion for a long time, so he couldn't help but ask, "My lord, isn't Miss Yilan here?" ”

"Yilan, her cousin came from Jiangzhou the day before yesterday, and today Yilan accompanied him to hang out in the city." After Situ Zhongda finished speaking, he asked, "What are you looking for in Yilan?" ”

Yuanhang regretted it after asking, how could there be a reason to inquire about other people's granddaughters at will? In desperation, Yuanhang took out the sweat towel that Yilan used to cover his wound last time and said: "Miss Yilan bandaged me last time, and now I have washed the sweat towel and I have come to return it later." ”

"Oh, it's a trivial matter, why bother." Situ Zhongda said disapprerovingly.

Yuanhang was overjoyed in his heart, and was about to put the sweat towel back in his arms, but heard Situ Zhongda continue: "Put it here, and I will return it to her when Yilan returns." ”

Yuanhang felt this pain in his heart, he was really self-defeating, and he moved a stone and hit his own foot.
