Chapter 21 Handover

Shen County is in the east of Luzhou, located in the upper reaches of the Qinhuai River, with a river, so the traffic between Shen County and Jiangning is still very convenient. 【&n】

Jiangning, known as the southern capital of the An Dynasty, has the famous Qinhuai River, which is a place that many scholars yearn for, after all, Qinhuai Fengyue is unparalleled in the world!

Although it is close to Jiangning, the Fengyue place in Shen County is not very prosperous, because of the existence of the Qinhuai River, so some prefectures and counties around Jiangning have wisely chosen other industries, except for Suzhou and Hangzhou, which are rich in the world.

Xiao Mo, Yu Niang and Meng Qiuxiang sat in the carriage, and before leaving, Xiao Mo had already handed over the Xiao family's house to Lin Chong and asked him to deal with it by himself, or to help take care of it.

Outside Shen County, Xiao Mo deliberately stretched his head out of the carriage to take a look at the ancient city wall.

Luzhou is located in the depths of the Central Plains, and there is no military affairs in peacetime, so the city wall of Shen County is not very tall, after entering the county seat, Xiao Mo couldn't sit still in the carriage, and went forward to chat with Zhou Kui who was driving the car, Xiao Mo saw that the time was still early, so he asked Zhou Kui to be the guide, and then drove the carriage around the county.

The pattern of Shen County is no different from other small county seats, there are also four city gates, it is worth mentioning that there is a river in Shen County, that is, Huangshui, which enters the county seat of Shen County from the north gate, and then flows into Chaohu Lake from the south gate.

After wandering around for a long time, Meng Qiuxiang finally stuck out her head and asked, "Xiao Mo, didn't you arrive at the city gate a long time ago?" Why are you still on the way? ”

Xiao Mo remembered that there was a sick old mother in the car, so he hurriedly asked Zhou Kui to drive the carriage to the county office.

The scale of the county government is average, it looks like it has been some years, the two big pillars in front of the door have fallen off the paint, several craftsmen are re-painting, and the big drum at the door is solemnly erected there, Xiao Mo looked at it, and then spit out his tongue.

This drum is bigger than Xiao Mo!

Li Ji is county order, of course Xiao Mo had to go in to find him, and after leaving Meng Qiuxiang and Yu Niang in the carriage, Xiao Mo came to Li Ji's study in the backyard in a wheelchair under the push of Zhou Kui.

Li Ji seemed to be meeting guests, and Xiao Mo was greeted by an old gentleman with a goatee.

"This is Master Qin......"

Hearing Zhou Kui's words, Xiao Mo hurriedly said to Master Qin: "Xiao Mo of Changle Town, I have seen Master, and Xiao Mo is sick and can't salute." ”

Master Qin touched his beard, and his voice and tone of voice were very polite: "Xiao Mo, Xiao Ziheng!" Hehe...... After the adult came back from Changle Town, he talked about Ziheng for a long time, and the old man has seen a real person today, oh...... Ziheng may not know yet, old man Qin Ye, come to ...... Please use tea in the side hall! ”

Xiao Mo had no choice but to follow Master Qin to the side hall and wait, after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Li Ji coming, Xiao Mo couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Master Qin, I don't know who the adults are meeting?" ”

Qin Ye smiled and said, "Speaking of which, this person is here to sue, and the sue is not someone else, it is Ziheng you!" ”

What the?

Xiao Mo opened his mouth wide, with an incredible expression, this is the first day he came to the county, and someone came to raise his appearance? That's weird, isn't it?

Unless...... Xiao Mo suddenly thought of something, so he asked, "Master Qin, is it Uncle Qiao?" ”

Qin Ye nodded and said, "Qiao Yuan accused you of abducting the people's daughter, and also accused your Xiao family of destroying the marriage without permission, concealing the truth, and ruining the innocence of the other people's daughters......"

The old man touched his beard and counted some of the charges that Qiao Zheng sued Xiao Mo one by one, Xiao Mo listened to it, and asked with a wry smile, "What do you say?" ”

Without waiting for Qin Ye to answer, a coercive and square voice sounded at the door: "What else can I say?" Wipe your butt for you! ”

As a scholar, Li Ji was able to say such foul words, Xiao Mo was amused, and after knowing that Li Ji was helping him solve the affairs of the Qiao family, he propped himself up in the wheelchair and saluted Li Ji, and said, "In this way, thank you so much!" ”

Li Ji stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Mo's words, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to thank you first, what Qiao Yuanwai told is the truth according to the investigation of this official, the so-called Son of Heaven broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, Ziheng, you are not excluded!" ”

Xiao Mo hurriedly bowed his head and said yes, Li Ji couldn't help but be happy when he saw Xiao Mo being only like that, looking like he was being taught, so he said: "Qiao Yuanwai is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you also have to give an explanation to the Qiao family about other people's daughters, as for how to do it, that's your business, but this official is in front of Qiao Yuanwai, but help you talk full, you can't break my name!" ”

Hearing Li Ji's words, Xiao Mo looked at Li Ji suspiciously, and felt that he had been betrayed, so he said to Li Ji: "Please also ask your lord to make it clear, how did your lord agree to Qiao Yuanwai?" ”

Li Ji said: "Qiao Yuanwai's meaning is very simple, the Xiao family has delayed Qiao Yuniang, and ruined the name of the girl, so I want you to remedy these two things......"

Xiao Mo's face turned embarrassed when he heard this, and he asked, "Is this so remedy?" ”

Li Ji stood up and said to Xiao Mo: "How to remedy it is your Xiao family's business, anyway, as long as Qiao Zheng is silent, you will be innocent, okay, Master Qin, take Ziheng to Chen Sihu to hand over!" ”

After that, Li Ji waved his hand and left the side hall, and Qin Ye said to Xiao Mo: "Ziheng, let's go!" ”

Xiao Mo sighed, and had no choice but to let Zhou Kui push himself and follow Master Qin.

The backyard of the county government is where Li Ji rests, the east chamber and the west chamber are the places for the offices of the divisions, the east chamber is the place where the catchers and the officials rest, and the west chamber is the office of the Shaofu and the Sihu and the Cao Division, Xiao Mo followed Qin Ye all the way to the west chamber, and then came to Chen Zhangping's room.

As the head of Shen County, Chen Zhangping's office is not small on weekdays, with a total of three rooms, the first two rooms are assigned to his subordinates, and Chen Zhangping himself is in the largest room in the back.

There was a huge bookshelf in the room, which was full of files, after seeing Xiao Mo, it may have been explained by Li Ji, Chen Zhangping put all the materials and things that needed to be handed over on the desk and asked Xiao Mo to count them.

Xiao Mo looked at it, there was nothing left, it was all unfinished work, and asked, "All here?" ”

Chen Zhangping shook his head and said: "These files are all on the shelves, and it is troublesome to count after all, so the old man will stay in the county for a few days, and he will leave when Ziheng finishes counting and finds that there is no problem. ”

After that, Chen Zhangping handed over a note to Xiao Mo, the tooth suit is the official uniform as the saying goes, and if you serve in the county government, you can't be regarded as an official, you can only be regarded as an official, so it is called a dental uniform.

Xiao Mo nodded, and carefully counted some of the documents on the desk, and then said to Chen Zhangping: "Since the old Sihu is going to stay in the county for a few days, then Xiao Mo is not in a hurry, and there are still some private matters in the future, so he will leave first!" ”

After that, Xiao Mo, Qin Ye and Chen Zhangping all left the house, and at this time Chen Zhangping said again: "The secretary of the household, there are three people in total, all in the first two rooms, Ziheng wants to see it?" ”

Speaking of the officials, Xiao Mo couldn't help but think of Lin Yiye, this guy took a step ahead of himself, he came to the county seat yesterday to find a house for himself, and said that he would come to the county office this morning and wait, but he didn't expect that he arrived at the county office, and even the handover was completed, and he hadn't even seen the shadow of Lin Yiye!
