The doctor invited by the Liu family is surnamed Zhang Mingzhen, and he is the one who opened the post for Li You to diagnose her pregnancy. He has good medical skills, his name is in the county government doctor Bu Branch, and his status in Xujiang County is similar to the role of the imperial doctor in the capital, and it happens to be not far from Liu's mansion.

Li Youying was at the gate, and he didn't wait long to see Dr. Zhang being led over by the slaves of the Liu Mansion, and after he stepped forward, he led the way and hurriedly walked in, saying as he walked: "After Dr. Zhang showed Lao Taishan, I have to come back with another post about my concubine Guan's unfortunate miscarriage." ”

In this regard, Zhang Zhen could only shake her head and smile bitterly, and it was not harmful, so she agreed, and asked a few more words about Liu Lao's inspection.

When he arrived at the inner room of Liu Lao's inspection bedroom, Dr. Zhang did not mention the action of cutting the pulse and distinguishing the sound, and said to Wang after the diagnosis: "Fortunately, there is no big problem, it is just a moment of blood surge, and you can take care of it." ”

Wang asked Dr. Zhang to prescribe a prescription, so Zhang Zhen prescribed a few prescriptions and left.

Sure enough, after only a while, Liu Lao woke up slowly, slowly looked at the crowd, raised his hand and pointed to Brother Jie, who was held in Aunt Fu's arms, and said, "You come." ”

Aunt Fu let go, and Brother Jie leaned over to the bed and shouted, "Don't be sad, father, the child will study hard." ”

Liu Lao inspected and pointed to Aunt Li, the culprit who was hiding behind people, and said, "You come too." ”

Li You reluctantly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Old Taishan has something to say." ”

Liu Lao Inspector looked at Li You and sighed, and said with tears in his eyes: "Today, I know that everything in the world is like chess, how can it be calculated, and the talent of a virtuous son-in-law is ten times better than mine." I am old and useless, and I hope that my Liu family has not treated you badly, and will treat my poor daughter well in the future. And please take care of my children, strict discipline so that he can have some achievements, if it is really not successful, to ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing, so that I Liu's incense is endless. ”

Why? This tone is about to become a dying trust, and it hasn't reached this yet. Li You dared to stimulate his old father-in-law at this time, and promised: "Please rest assured that Old Taishan, the little son-in-law should do his best." ”

But he found that Liu Lao looked at him straight and didn't speak, Li You guessed, according to the habit of the ancients, don't wait for me to swear?

Thinking that this father-in-law is a lot older, he is really worried about his children's affairs, and he really pities the hearts of parents all over the world. In order to appease him, Li You had no choice but to speak again: "All the relatives in the house can testify, and the son-in-law swears to the sky here, and is willing to do his best to treat his wife well and help Brother Jie. ”

Liu Lao inspected and instructed Brother Jie, "In the future, you should regard your brother-in-law as a brother, ask for advice and obey in everything, and there must be no rudeness!" ”

After Brother Jie also agreed, Liu Lao looked tired and waved his hand weakly.

Li You saluted and said goodbye: "Old Taishan take care, the little son-in-law said that he brought his wife to visit again." Then exit the room.

As Li You, he has his own housekeeper to send off guests, and he came back after a short time to report: "Uncle is gone." ”

Liu Lao, who was drowsy with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, tore off the cloth towel on his forehead, turned over and jumped off the bed with a light body like a swallow, walked a few steps back and forth in the room, moved his legs and feet, and said: "After all, I am old and frail, and the cramped couch is a little sore." ”

Aunt Fu was pleasantly surprised: "Master, are you okay?" ”

Wang sneered a few times, "It's really a good pair of sons-in-law!" ”

Dr. Zhang and Mr. Liu have known each other for many years, and they have a tacit understanding, and after the diagnosis, they saw that this trick was not exposed, and they arbitrarily prescribed a few tonics to deal with the undead.

Liu Lao turned his head to deal with his aunt and said, "Don't hold a grudge against Li You for your nephew, otherwise it will be too late to regret it, remember to remember." ”

Aunt Fu bowed her head and said: "As long as he is willing to treat Brother Jie well, it is too late for the concubine to be grateful, how can he hold a grudge." ”

Liu Lao inspected the side squatting and pressing his legs, and said: "Don't be dissatisfied, if it is really as he said, you can't pass the position down." That's a good thing for him to be an inspector, how many years can he be an official at his age? How many years can I take care of you? And at his age he could have continued to do it for thirty or forty years..."

As he spoke, Liu Lao's face suddenly turned red and he was speechless. Because at this time, his son-in-law returned to the door for some reason, lifted the curtain with his hand, crossed the threshold with his feet, and looked at Lao Taishan who was squatting on the ground with a distorted face.

It is said that Li Youcai walked out of the gate of Liu's Mansion, and suddenly remembered that he had come to ask for the official seal, and almost forgot about it. Then he entered Liu's Mansion again, and those servants saw him turn around and come back, but they didn't report it, but said that his uncle had forgotten something just now and wanted to go back.

In this way, Li You walked all the way unimpeded and walked directly to the door of Liu Lao's inspection bedroom, and happened to see Lao Taishan's dexterous skills... Brother Jie jumped in front of Li You and said, "Brother-in-law, my father suddenly got better. ”

Liu Lao, who deceived his feelings and was debunked on the spot, was embarrassed for a while, and he was angry.

The Wang family didn't want to make the best son-in-law have any resentment, so he stepped forward to play a round and said, "Is there anything else to do when you come back?" ”

Li You put away his contempt for his father-in-law and replied: "The son-in-law is saying that he is performing his duties today, and the official seal is still here in Lao Taishan, so I have come to ask for it." ”

Liu Lao took out the official seal and handed it to Li You, and said with a solemn face: "Don't forget the oath today." ”

I'm embarrassed to mention... Li You also nodded solemnly, and the official seal was in his hand, and he really left.

In the sedan chair, Li You took out the palm-sized bronze official seal from the box and admired it carefully, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

When Li Patrol returned home, Menzi told Aunt Guan to invite him to come back and go there, and Li You went to the south wing.

Guan Xiuxiu was sitting in the hall and flipping through the account book, and when she saw her husband coming in, she said: "The official raw silk has been exactly one month so far, and the profit is 5,723 taels. ”

Li You sat down and asked, "According to one percent, we can get a commission of five hundred and seventy taels?" ”

"Yes, it's been taken out."

Li You thought for a while and said, "I will keep two hundred taels, you and the silk shopkeeper will get a total of one hundred taels, and the remaining two hundred and seventy taels will be sealed and I will personally send them to the county office." ”

Guan Xiuxiu reported again: "Today, it is really a lot of money, and that Master Xue has sent the second batch of silver for the stake of one hundred taels." ”

Li You said with a smile: "Counting Yulu, I recently said that I started with three hundred and five taels, and my husband can finally breathe a sigh of relief for a while." ”

"It's three hundred and fifteen taels." Guan Xiuxiu corrected and said: "There is still an income today, and the eldest sister of the Li family next door sent ten taels of silver over, saying that it was a pen for the title of the book." I didn't expect my husband to be able to earn some silver for nothing every month. ”

"Did she really give?" Li You was very surprised, after rolling out of bed inexplicably on August 15, he had hinted, and Jin Baoer also persuaded him, but Sister Li Mei only opened a small door on the backyard wall, and did not say anything else.

Guan Xiuxiu smiled and said: "I can see that my husband once broke her heart very much, she hated and said that she would give you ten taels of pencil for a lifetime." Is this the fear of tiring the beauty? ”

When Li Youzheng was laughing with Aunt Guan, the maidservant Lu Shui came in and said, "There is a servant in front of me, saying that the magistrate has an urgent matter to find the master." ”

Li You got up and went to the front hall, and the person who came to pass the word was an acquaintance, and after a few words of greeting, he hurriedly came to the county office in a sedan chair. When I entered the official room of Zhixian County, I saw Chen Zhixian and Master Huang sitting there talking about something, looking like they were facing a great enemy.

What happened? Li You sat down with doubts and did not mention it.

Chen Zhixian immediately ordered: "You pick out twenty absolutely reliable soldiers from the inspection department. ”

This order has no beginning or end, which makes Li You confused, and it seems that Chen Zhixian is also a little out of breath.

Master Huang explained: "There is news from Fucheng that the Jiangnan Patrol is about to come to Xujiang County, and it is said that he will be able to arrive before the fall tomorrow night, and it is customary to be guarded by local soldiers. ”

This patrol is according to the imperial history, the grade is not high, and it is the same as the county is seven. But if the most beautiful seven-rank official is selected in the national dynasty, this patrol will definitely be elected according to the imperial history, and it can even be said to be one of the most powerful seven-rank officials. Not for anything else, it is specially selected by the imperial court from the young imperial history and sent to inspect various places, and under normal circumstances, only young ones are found, and sometimes new science and technology scholars are on.

The duties of the patrol of the imperial history are summarized as follows: on behalf of the heavenly patrol, the ministers of the feudal service and the officials of the prefecture, prefecture, and county must be inspected, and the major events are reported and the small matters are decided. Everywhere he went, although the rank of the patrol was low, he could also fight against the governor when he saw him, so he was said to be the most beautiful seven-rank official in the world. Of course, this dynasty also has a sad patrol, after inspecting a certain province and scolding the governor with the status of the Qincha, he was sent to this province as a magistrate when he returned to the dynasty, and he was immediately dumbfounded.

In a large number of small white dramas, the protagonist of the first half of the hard work is often the champion who became the governor of the eight mansions, and obtained the artifact of the Shang Fang sword, so that he could declare personal vendetta in a grand manner, and trample on all kinds of rich and handsome, which shows that the imperial history is very worthy of the status of Yiyin in the minds of the people. Although in reality, the champion will not be full to be the governor of the imperial history, and there is no Shang Fang's sword in hand.

According to the usual practice, a province will appoint a governor, and one person will be replaced every year, and he cannot be re-elected. However, the Jiangnan region is too important, and only the second Susong Prefecture handed over one-fifth of the world's wealth, so this dynasty specially set up the Nanzhili Jiangnan Patrol Press, which is responsible for the Nanzhili Jiangnan area in addition to Yingtianfu.

Li You secretly thought, say a thousand ways and ten thousand, just come according to the imperial history, as for calling these two masters like great enemies? Probably Chen Zhixian and Master Huang have done something shady recently, and they haven't had time to clean up the aftermath, so they are a little anxious.

Then he tentatively asked, "Is there anything wrong?" The lower officials are willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, and keep them clean and neat without leaving trouble. ”

Master Huang, who had a serious face, was amused, "Inspector Li became bold after becoming an official, so he can say big words." ”

Li You patted his chest and said, "There is still some certainty in the county. "The point is to have his father's old fingers.

Master Huang then instructed: "The biggest inappropriateness is that the county lord and this patrol press are very incompatible, and there are some grievances, please go and do it without leaving trouble?" ”

This... Li You suddenly lost his voice, he didn't dare to leave Qin Cha without leaving a future trouble even if he had a hundred guts. No wonder Chen Zhixian couldn't hold his breath, he had an opponent to inspect him, and it was not easy to change anyone. But don't worry too much, doesn't Chen Zhixian have the backing of the big guy of the Ministry of Officials, no matter how bad a patrol test language is, can it affect the future?

It is estimated that it is mainly a matter of face, after all, Chen Xianzun is a person who loves face. Thinking of this, Li You was slightly relieved, in fact, Chen Zhixian's loss of face was not a big problem for him... Chen Zhixian patted the case and said: "Don't laugh! This shallow villain is here for his own official, otherwise he has just taken office and arrived in Suzhou Mansion, and he will be the first to inspect the Xujiang River before he is warm. Inspector Li, you want to choose a cronie soldier to serve as a guard, do you understand the meaning of this official? ”

Li You said: "The lower officials obey the order. But I didn't think about it, Chen Zhixian didn't have any big problems with politics, on the contrary, there were some small achievements. The patrol is not familiar with the royal history, how can he have the ability to make something out of nothing.

Master Huang took out a list and handed it to Li Youdao: "This is the list that came urgently, you can take a look." ”

Li You took it and looked at it, patrolling the imperial history surnamed Ma Mingzhuo, and the attaché belonged to the three officials, but there was a familiar name, Cui Jing... Cui Jing? Li You was shocked, isn't this the name of the Cui prisoner who fought with him for his wife, he was asked to settle accounts a while ago, but it turned out that he fled back to Nanjing the second day after the lawsuit, and this time he actually appeared in the list of the imperial history inspector again.

Chen Zhixian is right, sure enough, the person who came is not good! Inspector Li held the list in his hand with murderous spirit, and nodded secretly in Chen Zhixian's eyes, only to say that Inspector Li was worried about the humiliation.
