When Xu Liang heard this, he looked at Lu Xiancheng with admiration, gave a thumbs up and praised repeatedly: "Lord Lu has lofty ambitions, great ambitions, and the admiration of the lower officials for Lord Lu is like the surging water of the Jianchang River, which is out of control." My lord, from now on, I Xu Liang will always take you as an example, take your requirements as a requirement, keep up with the pace of adults, never leave an inch, eat at the same table, sleep with cotton......"

Lu Xiancheng's face turned red, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Lord Xu, what this official said today is completely sincere, Lord Xu feels that it is inappropriate, just listen to it, why come to entertain me?" ”

Xu Liang hehehe, scratched his head and said, "Xia Guan was also from the bottom of his heart just now. ”

Lu Xiancheng suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, and he felt a little unreasonable when he met a soldier. He took a deep breath and said in a rather lonely tone: "Lord Xu, life is a lifetime, grass and trees are autumn, Lord Xu is already in an important position at a young age, has Lord Xu never thought about the future road?" What is the difference between a person who lives a lifetime, muddy, and has no ideals at all, and the walking dead? ”

Xu Liang pursed his lips and secretly said What ambitions do I have, what is the matter with you old man.

"Lord Xu, this official has already poured out his heart and lungs today, Lord Xu still refuses to trust this official, and tell the truth?"

"Ah, let me think about it." Xu Liang couldn't help but be very distressed when he saw Lu Xiancheng asking, lowered his head and thought about it, and when he looked up at Lu Xiancheng again, his expression was already solemn, and he said: "Lord Lu, in fact, there are a lot of things I want to do, sometimes I want to be the prime minister, but I am afraid of many things, sometimes I want to get rich, and I am afraid of people stealing, sometimes I want to marry a wife, and I am afraid of being wordy, sometimes I want to burn meat to eat, and I am afraid of washing the pot, and sometimes I even want to slap you, and I am afraid of causing trouble!" Alas, Lord Lu, you see that I want to do so much, but so far none of them have been realized, ashamed, ashamed. ”

Lu Xiancheng almost fainted. He looked at Xu Liang in a daze, his eyes were full of disappointment, and he waved his hand weakly, and said, "That's it, that's it, Lu Mou is here for the wrong time today, Lord Xu, you can do it yourself." With that, he turned and opened the door of the main book, and walked out in a slumped figure.

"Lord Lu!" Xu Liang shouted from inside the house.

"What? Lord Xu still has some witty words unfinished, you can say it, the official listens. Lu Xiancheng stood by the door, did not look back, and said.

Xu Liang stepped forward with an affectionate look, pulled Lu Xiancheng, pressed to the nearest chair, and took the teapot to make a cup of hot tea for Lu Xiancheng personally, and then said with a ashamed face: "Xu Liang was just presumptuous, alas, Lord Lu wants to ask Xu Mou's ambition, alas, I am not afraid of Lord Lu's jokes, today the adults treat me with sincerity, then I will sincerely repay the adults." ”

"Lord Xu, please speak." Lu Xiancheng looked excited, and pulled Xu Liang's two arms and didn't let go.

"When Xu was a child, his family was poor at that time, so he thought that he could eat rice at once, go to school, and think that he could be a famous scientist in the future, and when he entered high school, his grades declined, and he felt that there was no hope for scientists, so he wanted to be an engineer or something, and when he graduated from college, alas, the requirements were lower, and he wanted to find a stable job, five days a week, and two days off, that is the ideal life......"

"Xu Liang!" Lu Xiancheng got up angrily, nodded with a red face and said to Xu Liang: "If you don't want to say it, why bother to make up some nonsense and deceive the old man!" Leave! ”

Lu Xiancheng just got out of the chair and was pushed back by Xu Liang. Xu Liang laughed self-deprecatingly and said: "Lord Lu took a sip of tea to extinguish the fire, alas, to be honest, Xu Mou came to this world, and he didn't want anything else, just thinking that he could protect the family, have no worries about food and clothing, and be able to speak on his own one-acre and three-third of land, and be the master." Saying that, Xu Liang smiled embarrassedly at Lu Xiancheng, and said shyly: "The kid has no ambitions, but he disappointed Lord Lu." ”

Lu Xiancheng looked at Xu Liang in a daze, shook his head and said, "Lord Xu is laughing, your ambition is not small. He got up and walked to the door.

"Hey, Lord Lu, are you not sitting down again?" Xu Liang said in shock, and said in his heart that you are really an old man, Lao Tzu has said all the words at the bottom of the box, and you are going to leave after listening to it?

Lu Xiancheng stood by the door, closed the door of the main book room with both hands, turned around and walked in front of Xu Liang, and stared at Xu Liang.

Xu Liang saw Lu Xiancheng's thin face stretched out in front of him, and a few white spots on his face were particularly conspicuous, and then he couldn't help but take two steps back in horror when he looked at Lu Xiancheng's unblinking affectionate gaze, and waved his hand and shouted: "Lord Lu has something to say, in the next, uh, it's not good for this!" ”

Lu Xiancheng stumbled when he heard this, retreated to the chair, and coughed loudly. At the end, Lu Xiancheng pointed at Xu Liang and scolded: "Xu Liang, you are also a cultural person who has studied hard for ten years, how you act and speak without the slightest meaning. ”

Xu Liang said with a smile: "Xu Mou has little reading and not much literacy, which makes Lord Lu laugh." ”

Lu Xiancheng was stunned when he heard this, and laughed when he understood. When Xu Liang saw it, he scolded him, and he really laughed so cheaply.

"You!" Lu Xiancheng's expression changed, he stopped laughing, and asked: "Since you and I are so honest today, then this official has something to say or not." ”

Xu Liang rolled his eyes and said, "Lord Lu, you have something to say, if there is anything else that should be said, just say it." ”

Lu Xiancheng nodded, pointed in the direction of the second hall of the county government, and said, "According to Lord Xu, the second hall is a capable minister?" ”

Xu Liang thought for a moment and shook his head.

Seeing this, Lu Xiancheng bowed his head, and then said: "The one in Ertang who has lived in Jianchang for many years, is an official who is stable and stable, and he is not slippery, but if he talks about political achievements, he has nothing at all. You and I, as the second officials and direct subordinates, if they also follow the same example and eat a vegetarian meal, then our reputation and future will be ruined. ”

Xu Liang groaned, feeling that Lu Xiancheng was reasonable, and couldn't help but say: "What does Lord Lu think?" ”

Lu Xiancheng's spirits perked up, and his eyes burned and said: "Lord Xu, Shangguan is like this, as a lower official, we have to find a way to save ourselves." Now is the period of the first examination of the second hall, if the court examination is in the middle and upper grades, then everyone will naturally be happy, but if it gets a bad evaluation, then that person will naturally be punished, even if you and I are a second official, it will inevitably be implicated. ”

"Lord Lu," Xu Liang said, "just say it, what do you want to do?" "It's about his own black gauze hat, and Xu Liang is also aware of the strictness of the matter.

"Well," Lu Xiancheng nodded, "If you want to pass the test safely, then we have to do things well for that person." The court examination is full, nothing more than the population, taxes, agriculture, lawsuits, and the people, not to mention the others, compared with three years ago, each has increased slightly, but this lawsuit, the people, alas, in August of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, our county was broken once, and the people suffered innumerable, such as today, the seventh year of the New Year has just passed, less than two months, and a large number of girls are missing, if these things are not properly handled, hehe, the initial examination is not difficult. ”

"Your Excellency is right!" Xu Liang said solemnly: "Xia Guan knows the seriousness of the matter, rest assured, Xia Guan will go all out and do his best to solve it properly." ”

"It's good that Lord Xu has such an understanding. It's just that the one just said that you should be cautious about the two brothers of the Tan family, hehe, when did the dignified Jianchang County Ya also fall into the situation of wanting to give a grass head king face? Lu Xiancheng raised his eyes to look at Xu Liang, and said with deep meaning in his eyes: "However, that is Shangguan, this order has to be followed, but there are many ways to follow, and Lord Xu must be flexible." ”

"Oh?" Xu Liang suddenly felt that there was something in Lu County's words, and he shook his head to the ground, and said sincerely: "The lower official is young and has little seniority and is not familiar with political affairs, so please teach me Lord Lu." ”

Lu Xiancheng said faintly: "That person said that the two brothers of the Tan family should be cautious, well, there are nearly 500 people in the Tan family, but not all of them are brothers of the Tan family." ”

"Xiaguan understands!" Xu Liang said.

When Lu Xiancheng returned to the county house, Jianchang Dianshi Jiang Zhunan was waiting in the house like an ant on a hot pot, circling around the house again and again, seeing Lu Xiancheng coming in, Jiang Dianshi stepped forward and asked urgently: "Brother Lu, why are you still attached to that Xu Liang today?" ”

Lu Xiancheng glanced at him, closed the door with his hand, sat down on the main seat, and waved his hand: "Zhunan, you must learn to calm down in everything, what is the so-called city government?" is to endure again and again without asking, and endure it for life. ”

"But, I'm in a hurry." Jiang Dianshi said with a bitter face.

Lu Xiancheng glanced at him, and said slowly: "I have spent so many years in the Inspectorate, and I understand a truth, there is no eternal enemy in the Ming officialdom, as long as the goal is the same, even if it is a father and an enemy, it is possible to immediately call him a brother." ”

"Oh, Brother Lu, don't drop your bookbag, say it quickly, I'm in a hurry." Jiang Dianshi shouted.

Lu Xiancheng's eyes were cold, and Sen Ran said: "Wang Zhixian's examination is over, at this time, for a mature politician, stability is the first priority, hehe, now Xu Liang is going to do something to the Tiger Gang, with Xu Liang's unforgiving temperament, can Jianchang still be stable?" ”

"Huh? Wouldn't that be a big mess? ”

Lu Xiancheng said faintly: "Jianchang is not chaotic, doesn't that one still have to rely on the seat of the magistrate?" If he doesn't leave, how can you and I get on the throne? ”
