Chapter 258: Back to the capital
Sighing softly, he sat up slowly, slowly walked outside the room, looked up at the sun in the sky, Xu Xianchun felt that life was so beautiful for the first time.
"Master, you're up!" Li Tiantian walked over quickly, bowed to Xu Xianchun and said. At this time, Li Tiantian is no longer dressed as before, but combed her hair in a bun, dressed as a little woman, and now everyone respectfully calls him Aunt Li when they see him.
Smiling at Aunt Li, Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "When you return to the capital, the master is giving you a name!" ”
"Being able to serve by the master's side is the blessing of the concubine, and the concubine naturally believes the master's words." When she came to Xu Xianchun's side, Aunt Li hugged Xu Xianchun and said with a smile: "Master, when Lord Zhixian and Inspector Liu came yesterday, the master had already fallen asleep. They didn't dare to disturb the master, so they said hello and left, saying that they would come back today. ”
Nodding slowly, Xu Xianchun knew that he slept early yesterday, so it was naturally difficult to say anything. Gently holding Aunt Li's hand, Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "The master has an injury, and he shouldn't be able to stay in Shandong for long." After waiting for a few days, the master will take you back to the capital. ”
"Where the master goes, the concubine will go, and the concubine will be the master's person in the future!" Aunt Li grew up in the Qinglou since she was a child, and after the careful training of the old bustard, this method of coaxing men is naturally endless.
"Lord Yu, Changlin Zhixian is asking to see you outside!" Just when the two of them were talking to each other, a captain of the brocade guard walked in quickly, came to Xu Xianchun's side and said respectfully.
Slightly stunned, Xu Xianchun nodded slowly, this county magistrate is so good at being a man, he naturally wants to see it. Glancing at Aunt Li beside her, seeing that her expression did not change in the slightest, Xu Xianchun said in a deep voice: "Let him come in!" ”
After a short time, a middle-aged man walked in outside, wearing the official uniform of the magistrate. Behind him, Liu was also inspected, and the two of them walked in one after the other.
Xu Xianchun is still very curious about the intention of this magistrate, it stands to reason that the magistrate is a civil official system, although a seven-grade magistrate is not a high-ranking official, but it should also be a person. Meritorious scholars are all stinky problems, even if they are high-ranking officials like Xu Xianchun, these people are also disdainful of stuttering.
This Changlin Zhixian actually sent a beauty to himself, and he came to visit in person, obviously there is something here! However, Xu Xianchun can probably guess that he has not seen the magistrate of Changlin since he came to Changlin County. Although Changlin is very small, that is, an inferior county, and the county seat is not very tall, it is strange that there is no county here!
Since Xu Xianchun came to Changlin, it has always been Liu Inspector who has received him, and it is also Liu Inspector who swears to guard. On the contrary, the main hall of a county is nowhere to be found, although Liu Patrol tried his best to cover it up, but Xu Xianchun was not stupid, he knew that the county order might have run away. I got the news early and slipped away, but I was on the verge of escape. If a conviction is really made, it will definitely not be as simple as dismissal, but a capital crime. If you offend someone, I am afraid that you can use some means to raid your family and exterminate your family.
However, Xu Xianchun has no idea about this magistrate, there are too many such people, and there is no need for him to be knowledgeable. If you arrest him, even if you kill him, it won't do you any good, but you can't be implicated by him. Once something happens in the future, it is likely to become your own handle. Glancing at Aunt Li beside her, Xu Xianchun asked in a deep voice, "Where is your deed of sale?" How much money did Changlin Zhixian spend to buy you? ”
Listening to Xu Xianchun's words, Aunt Li was slightly stunned, and then said with a look of grievance: "I don't know how much money was spent on the concubine, but the deed of sale should be in the hands of the magistrate." ”
Nodding slowly, Xu Xianchun breathed a sigh of relief, this is good, things are much easier.
"Xiaguanchang, Linzhi County, Li Changmao has seen an adult!" Bowing to Xu Xianchun, Li Changmao said respectfully.
"Lord Li is exempt, this official has been here to beg for mercy in Guixian County for many days, which is quite unwilling, and it makes Lord Li bothered!" Xu Xianchun smiled indifferently and said softly.
Seeing that Xu Xianchun didn't seem to be ready to embarrass himself, and seeing Aunt Li on the side dressed as a woman, Li Changmao's heart breathed a sigh of relief. As long as this adult doesn't pursue it, there will naturally be no big problems. When Li Changmao received the news that there were anti-thieves, he knew that this Changlin County could not be defended, so he found a reason to run away. When the rebellion is put down, when he comes back, there is no problem in thinking about it, and when the time comes, the official will be reinstated, and everything will still be business as usual.
But this Li Changmao and Li Zhixian didn't expect that as soon as he left with his front foot, Xu Xianchun came with his back foot. What surprised Li Zhixian even more was that Changlin County actually held on, which was a great achievement, and he turned around and wrote an excerpt, saying his own credit, and this promotion was properly promoted.
Li Changmao himself also knew in his heart that these people below were nothing, and the Qincha who led the troops did not know about it. The only one who needs to seal his mouth is Xu Xianchun, why is Li Changmao giving away and stammering these things. He also prepared a big gift for Xu Xianchun, and he came to give a gift today.
Bowing to Xu Xianchun, Li Changmao said respectfully: "My lord has worked hard and made great achievements, and it is our honor to be able to come to Linchang." ”
Xu Xianchun knew in his heart that Li Changmao definitely didn't want him to come here, so he coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Master Li, Ming people don't say secret words, the official is very satisfied with the sweet girl, and he is ready to take her as a concubine." I heard that this deed of sale is still on Master Li's body? I don't know if I can sell it to this official, Lord Li can make a price! ”
Listening to Xu Xianchun's words, Li Changmao's heart was stunned, this is obviously not the meaning of cooperation! However, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly said in a deep voice: "Back to my lord, yes!" As he spoke, he took out the deed of sale in his arms and handed it to Xu Xianchun.
After receiving the deed of sale, Xu Xianchun slowly opened it, and after the lack of people was correct, Xu Xianchun handed the deed of sale to Aunt Li behind him, and said with a smile: "This is yours, take it yourself!" For such a woman, Xu Xianchun believes that even if she doesn't have a deed of sale, she won't be able to turn over her palm.
Aunt Li happily accepted the deed of sale, and her smile at Xu Xianchun was even sweeter.
Smiling at Aunt Li, Xu Xianchun said to the Jinyi guard who was standing not far away: "Go, bring five hundred taels of silver to the official!" "These brocade guards are not from Xu Xianchun's side, but from Shandong, and they only arrived early this morning.
"Yes, sir!" gave Xu Xianchun a salute, and the man left quickly. He has scruples about the civil official Xu Xianchun, but he has no scruples about Xu Xianchun, the brocade guard, and he wants five hundred taels of silver.
Hearing Xu Xianchun's words, Li Changmao's heart sank, his deed of sale was five hundred taels, it seems that he wanted to give himself money! At this time, he was really confused, if he didn't accept his gift, he should be arrested now, but Xu Xianchun didn't do it. But if you are on your side, what are you going to do with your own money?
Xu Xianchun's idea is very simple, he doesn't want to care about Li Changmao's, and it has nothing to do with him whether he hides it or gets arrested.
It didn't take long for the brocade guard to bring the silver, and motioned to the brocade guard to hand over the silver to Li Changmao, Xu Xianchun said in a deep voice: "This is Aunt Li's money from selling her body, Lord Li take it!" ”
"Your Excellency!" Li Changmao took the silver and seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by a voice outside.
"The Divine Decree has arrived!" With just three words, all the people in the courtyard were shocked, including Xu Xianchun himself, how could there be a holy decree here?
As soon as the shouting ended, two teams of people walked in from outside, standing along the left and right sides of the courtyard. Everyone was wearing armor and carrying a knife around their waists, and everyone's eyes were sharp, and their combat effectiveness was good at a glance.
After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man walked in slowly with a yellow scroll in both hands, with a solemn face.
When he saw the person who walked in, Xu Xianchun was stunned! Xiong Wencan, the secretary of the military department, how could it be him? Xu Xianchun always thought that this time the bandit Qincha was Sun Chuanting, but he didn't expect it to be Xiong Wencan.
"Jinyi Wei knows Xu Xianchun, take the order!" Xiong Wencan didn't seem to see anyone, walked straight to the steps and stood up, and then said expressionlessly.
"Minister, Jinyi Wei Tongzhi Xu Xianchun received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Xu Xianchun hurriedly picked up his clothes and fell to the ground, how could this be? Even if the emperor has a holy decree to pass on to himself, he should have sent a eunuch here, how can this still let Xiong Wencan announce the decree, this is a typical big talent and little use!
Gently unfolding the holy decree, Xiong Wencan read aloud: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Jinyi Wei Tongzhi Xu Xianchun, with the emperor's order, went to Shandong to investigate the case of Wenxiangmen, and there has been considerable progress. I already know a lot about the matter of smelling incense, and I have sent a large army to exterminate it. Xiong Wencan, the secretary of the military department, personally went to Shandong to exterminate Wenxiangmen, and from now on, Xu Xianchun handed over the errand to Xiong Wencan and returned to Beijing immediately, and there must be no mistake. Chin this. ”
"Minister, Jinyi Wei Tongzhi Xu Xianchun received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" After bowing to the holy decree, Xu Xianchun took the holy decree. In fact, Xu Xianchun didn't know, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse didn't know where Xu Xianchun was, so he handed over the holy decree to Xiong Wencan, and Xiong Wencan read it according to the content of the holy decree.
Ignoring Xu Xianchun, Xiong Wencan turned around and left after reading the holy decree, and he didn't have anything to do with Xu Xianchun.
However, Xu Xianchun didn't care, this was already expected, as for the delivery errand mentioned in the Holy Decree of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, it was just to save some face for himself, this Xu Xianchun still understood.
Glancing at Li Changmao on the side, Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "Master Li, this official is about to return to Beijing, so I won't send it." With that, he raised his legs and walked into the house.
