It is said that Wang Tongzhi and Governor Li have made up their minds to uncover the black curtain of the prefect, but how to uncover the lid is also a science, not only to do the goal but also to ensure their own interests, both reasonable and behaving without causing trouble for themselves. If you really want to be simple and rude, of course, you just write dozens of big-character posters and post them all over the city, but the follow-up situation is uncontrollable.

Li You remembered something and said: "Ma Yushi is now patrolling Suzhou, I think he has some great achievements, why don't you report this matter to him and let him come forward?" He is also a person who has a cabinet elder to rely on. ”

Wang Tongzhi disagreed: "How can there be no Qincha who is not gifted by Cheng Yi." Or is it still that, I really can't be sure what the situation is between him and Fuzun, who knows if it's not a raccoon dog? In comparison, it is safe to start with Jiang Xunjian and then involve Chen Zhixian. ”

The plan was agreed, and Li You set off to go back to Xujiang County. He needed to find someone familiar with the situation in the Xishui Inspection Division, search for some charges against Jiang Inspection, and then persuade Chen Zhixian to use this excuse to detain Jiang Inspection, and then inadvertently interrogate the shady scene of Gu Sucang from Jiang Inspection's mouth. There is only one ultimate goal, to let Chen Zhixian participate naturally and justifiably. At the same time, the crisis of his own silk line was lifted, otherwise there would be an accident at any time if there was a bad patrol in Xishui Town.

This process seems to be very troublesome, but it is also the most secure method that Li You can think of. Otherwise, why would a group of subordinates pay attention to the prefect's selfishness very abruptly?

There is no reasonable reason to let others gossip, and in the eyes of outsiders, it seems that several subordinates are plotting to pull the prefect to dismount, and Governor Li, Wang Tongzhi, and Chen Zhixian are not willing to bear this reputation. So it is both accidental and inevitable to make things happen.

When Li You returned to his home in the county seat of Xujiang County, it was already midnight. The sleeping parents, wives and concubines were all alarmed, and the whole family gathered in the hall to talk.

Father Li asked, "Didn't Xiao Ermo lose ground in Fucheng?" Otherwise, why would Jiang Patrol dare to encroach on your silk line without fear? ”

At this time, Li You couldn't hide it, so he said: "When I first arrived, there was always a little estrangement, so my father didn't have to worry about it." ”

Li's mother Zhu said nervously: "If the city is not good, it doesn't matter if this official doesn't do it, Xiao Er will still come back and continue to pawn history, which is reassuring." ”

Father Li said loudly: "Don't mention this again!" is like sailing against the current, how can a dignified man retreat from the difficulties. ”

After that, Li's father and Li's mother went back to the house, leaving Li You and his wife and concubine to talk to themselves.

Thinking of Guan Shu, the scribe of the Inspection Division, Li You said to Guan Xiuxiu: "Ming said that I asked your cousin to come over and ask him about the Inspection Department for my husband." ”

"He's gone, and now he's not in the Inspection Division." Guan Xiuxiu replied.

Li You was surprised: "Is it because of me?" ”

"The new inspector can't tolerate him, and Mr. Sun will go to work with him."

Even Sun Ji was driven away... It's a bit of a hassle. Li You is not in the Xishui Inspection Division, so who should he find to investigate the bad deeds of Jiang Inspection? Li You had to review that when he was an inspector, his shelf was too big and his tenure was short, so he couldn't find anyone he could trust at this time.

Li You turned his eyes and saw Mrs. Liu, remembering that he had borrowed this inspection from his father-in-law. Lao Taishan has been operating in the inspection department for more than ten years, and he has more skills than himself, and he has only been retired for a few months, and now there should always be some cronies who can be entrusted with big things to stay in the inspection department.

"Ming said that the husband and the mother went to meet the father-in-law and mother-in-law." Li You said to the lady.

Mrs. Liu nodded happily, and Mei Zhi interjected: "Mrs. Liu is going to be a monk, the family over there is about to turn upside down, so it's good for the master to persuade him." ”

Li You smiled dumbly and said, "There's nothing wrong with being a monk. ”

"The old man still wants to donate the good land in his family to the temple, and the main mother and aunts are all in trouble." Umeeda said.

Old Tarzan, is this crazy... Li You shook his head and thought.

After a night of not saying anything, Li You and his wife came to Liu's mansion. As soon as I entered the door, I met Dr. Zhang Zhen, and it seemed that someone in the house was sick. Another old housekeeper greeted him and said, "It's a coincidence, the master mother is talking to my uncle." ”

This mother-in-law, Wang, is looking for Li You for nothing else, that is, to ask Li You to stop Liu Lao from inspecting and leaving home, in her words: "The virtuous son-in-law is scheming, and this matter will be handed over to you." ”

Li Younahan said: "If you become a monk, why does Lao Taishan donate his family property?" ”

Wang smiled bitterly: "When he heard that he could donate 100 acres of land to be a deacon in the temple, 200 acres to be the head of the hall, and 500 acres to be the deputy abbot, he was moved. ”

In these years, the Buddha Gate is not pure.

"You came back at the right time, if you don't stop him, it's probably these two days. Now your father-in-law is talking with the monk in the study, and the virtuous son-in-law should go and have a look. ”

In the past few days, he has to use Lao Taishan's influence in the Inspection Division, and he must be stopped from becoming a monk first, Li You got up and went to Liu's study while thinking.

Li You has not met with Liu Lao for a long time, and when he sees it today, he only feels that Lao Taishan's face is calm and waveless, sad and joyless, and he really has a bit of a temperament that sees through the red dust. In this study, there is also a good-looking monk who is chattering about brainwashing Old Taishan, which makes Li You very bored.

"I've seen my father-in-law!" Li You stepped forward to greet him and said.

Liu Lao didn't talk as usual, just nodded, and went to listen to the monk's chatter again.

Seeing that he is so enchanted that it is not easy to persuade, Li You said secretly, so he thought about trying to delay it first, and said with a fork: "Old Taishan, don't be fooled easily, it's always good to shop around at any time, and look at a few more temples and Taoist temples before making a decision." In fact, it's not bad to be a Taoist priest, why do you have to enter Buddhism. ”

The monk said: "Beiqiu Temple is the head of the Buddhist temple in this county, and the reputation of the Zen forest is located. There are eight monks as abbots, Liu Shizhu entered our temple, and there may be opportunities to be monks in the future. Moreover, the scenery around the temple is very good, the houses in the temple are spacious, and it is a practice resort for the old benefactor, so it cannot be missed. ”

"You're from Beiqiu Temple?" Li You asked.

"Exactly." The monk couldn't hide his pride.

Li You looked up at the monk and laughed, very rude.

"I wonder why this donor is laughing?"

"The jungle rice in the world is like a mountain, and the bowl is everywhere! Is the poem inscribed on the gate of your temple still there? ”

The monk was shocked when he heard this: "This benefactor is Master Li!" At the beginning, Li You's poem was widely circulated, which made Beiqiu Temple lose face and almost became a laughing stock, but the temple was helpless against Li You. I really didn't expect that I would come to Li You today, and I didn't know how to answer for a while. He thought in his heart that this Li You was not easy to provoke, so it would be better to go first, so he stood up and said to Liu Lao's inspector: "The poor monk will not disturb Liu Lao's benefactor Weng Son-in-law's conversation, so I will say goodbye." ”

When the monk left, Li You said to his father-in-law: "Isn't it good for Old Taishan to enjoy a peaceful life at home?" Why go to the temple and suffer. ”

Liu Lao was silent.

Li You said in a low voice: "The little son-in-law has something to ask, and he also asks Lao Taishan to slow down the monkhood." ”

Hearing that his son-in-law actually begged him, Inspector Liu became interested and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Lao Taishan has been operating in the West Water Inspection Division for many years, and I don't know if there are any reliable people who recommend it to my son-in-law."

Liu Lao said suspiciously: "You have gone to the government to work, what are you looking for the people of the inspection department?" ”

Li You pretended to say: "Chen Zhixian wants to use it." I also asked Lao Taishan to come forward to contact and meet with my son-in-law for a while. ”

Inspector Liu seemed to enjoy the feeling of being pleaded by Li You, and shook his head and said, "The old man naturally has loyal subordinates. ”

Li Youxi said: "Please also ask Lao Taishan to be fulfilled!" ”

While Weng and his son-in-law were talking, Dr. Zhang Zhen and Zhang hurriedly walked into the study, he and Liu Lao had known each other for many years, so there was no need to be too formal. I only heard Dr. Zhang say to Liu Lao's inspection: "Master Liu, I have diagnosed the second aunt of your house." ”

Li You understood in his heart, it turned out that Aunt Fu was sick, and he couldn't help but think of the joy in the dark lights and blind fire that night, and quickly cut off his thoughts, and the old man was still in front of him.

"The second aunt is not sick, she is happy, nearly two months."

Dr. Zhang's words were like thunder on the ground, which stunned both Weng and his son-in-law, and they all shouted: "What? ”

Liu Lao's face kept changing, he didn't lift it himself, this Aunt Fu was definitely stealing wild seeds behind his back and others. Seven years ago, I let Aunt Fu enter with a pregnant body, and it was just a matter of deliberately thinking of herself when she gave birth to a child, after all, it was to stay behind, but today, this... Li You was even more shocked in his heart, he knew his own family affairs, and according to the time, the eight achievements of Aunt Fu's belly were his... He needs his son very much, but none of these women in the family have been pregnant for a long time, why did a passive cheating sprout? What can I do in the future? God, this is playing with him... Li You forcibly restrained his agitated mood, and couldn't let others see the abnormality, the "what" he shouted just now was very dangerous, but fortunately, Doctor Zhang and Lao Taishan didn't notice it.

What should a normal person do at this time? I guess congratulations... Thinking of this, Li You pretended not to know the truth, and forcibly endured his disgust and said: "Son-in-law, congratulations to Old Taishan for having a son late." ”

Liu Lao asked Zhang Zhen numbly: "Is this really the case?" ”

Doctor Zhang tried his best to make his expression normal, for fear of stimulating Liu Lao's inspection, and said softly: "That's true." "He has known Master Liu for so many years, and he is a doctor himself, so he is faintly aware of Master Liu's inaction, but he didn't expect to diagnose Aunt Fu that she has a happy pulse this time... was supposed to congratulate the master, but it was difficult for Dr. Zhang to speak, so he had to pretend not to know how to leave.

Inspector Liu sighed, he was really discouraged, and called the chief outside in and said, "You go to Beiqiu Temple to inform the master, the old man is a monk, and he will no longer care about this red dust." ”

Just now I said that I moved Lao Taishan, why do you want to change the hexagram again... Li You hurriedly said: "New children, how can Old Taishan abandon them!" ”

Inspector Liu laughed miserably: "Everything is empty now, and I don't hide it from my son-in-law, this wild seed is not the old man's!" ”

Of course I know that... Li You persuaded: "The monk is not in a hurry, Lao Taishan is excited at this time, and he will calm down in a few days, so as not to regret it." Besides, the concubine is pregnant, but Lao Taishan escaped into the empty door, which will inevitably arouse suspicion, and it is not good to spread rumors and tarnish his reputation, so it is better to wait. ”

Liu Lao was also a little unwilling, and said: "Tell Aunt Fu to come here immediately!" He also said to Li You: "The old man is in a state of confusion, and he also asked his virtuous son-in-law to help interrogate and interrogate." ”

Li You was so frightened that his soul flew away, where did he dare to interrogate, in case Aunt Fu was irrational by his question, and it would be over if she identified him.
