Chapter Twenty-Eight: Guanyue Ancient Temple

"Head."

"Brother Cao, you're here."

"You see, the eyes of the head are darkened a lot, I don't know which girl in Cuiyi Building was favored by the head last night."

"How can one be enough, at least two or three"

"Hahaha"

A few officials who have a good relationship on weekdays were amused, and they made fun of Cao Hu one by one, Cao Hu was not angry, and said with a smile: "You guys, don't fight for three days, go to the house to uncover the tiles, okay, if you want to go to Cuiyi Building, just say it, then the account is mine." ”

"Great, they all say that the head is the most generous, right?"

"That's it, follow the head, eat and drink without worrying."

"Yes, yes, that's it, head, tired, I'll make you a cup of tea."

A group of subordinates are so happy that they shout praises to Cao Hu, whenever Cao Hu is in a very good mood, one can win people's hearts, improve their prestige, and secondly, they can also show their status, and they are the head catchers, the security of the entire Jiangyou County is under their own control, that is, they are treated, there are many deductions, many links are free, don't look at the number of people who are invited, but the real cost is not big, sometimes it can be free, and there are many additional items recently, which Cao Hu does not care.

Cao Hu, who was born at the grassroots, deeply understands that there are talented people, although the status of the third class is not high, but the county officials are not as good as the current management, and they have to implement it in all aspects, it can be said that the power is very great, and the loyalty of his subordinates is very important, Cao Hu often gives small favors to his subordinates, and builds his own power like an iron plate, in the final analysis, he also imitates Chen Gui, but Chen Gui's object is the entire county government.

"Hey, what about Zhang Chunnian and Li Dong? These two boys dare to be absent from work? Cao Hu's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that there were two right-hand men missing from the crowd, and hurriedly asked.

Usually when he sees himself coming, these two guys are the most attentive, so when these two are not there, Cao Hu immediately feels it.

"Head, the two of them went on a business trip." A skinny official whispered.

"Oh, what's the business? How did I not know? "According to the rules, I am a head catcher, and I know that I will file it myself and redistribute manpower if I know anything, why can't I receive any wind at all, so I go out to work? Cao Hu's face was a little unhappy.

No rules do not make a circle, in ancient times, there is something to report step by step, if you go beyond the level, it is not to be seen by others, it is regarded as an ungrateful person, a bold person, after all, in the eyes of many people, this is a small report, this kind of behavior, if you report the superior, no incumbent likes such a subordinate, that is, it is not a report to the superior, but also to give a superior in his position does not seek his own politics, mediocre and incompetent impression, in the officialdom is particularly taboo.

Although the two of them are also Cao Hu's cronies, Cao Hu is not happy when the rules are broken.

The fast-mouthed fast catcher Niu Er hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "This is the county lord asked them to go, it is said that it is to discuss the celebration of the Shangyuan Festival, tsk, they picked up a fat difference." ”

"Yes, but recently, the county lord seems to have looked at the two of them differently, and handed over a lot of errands to them, oh, by the way, I heard that they also arranged errands for their relatives in the welcome building, and this time they handed over the fat difference of the Shangyuan Festival to them, they are really lucky." The official nicknamed Feidong said with some jealousy.

"Didn't you leave this errand to the head in previous years?" It was Yang Jiu, who had just been fishing for a long time.

Cao Hu smiled and said: "It's okay, the county lord knows that I have been too busy recently, so I didn't make arrangements, and then said that I patrolled the township with the county magistrate a year ago, and made a small profit, which is beneficial, and I have to let the brothers get a little bit of it, okay, let's go to work, don't be busy going home after the dispersal value, change into civilian clothes and let's go to Cuiyi Building to have a good time, first said, after this village, just this store, don't go, don't make up later." ”

"Head treat, I have to go anyway."

"It's just that if you don't have time, you have to be free."

"If your leg is broken, you have to crawl."

"Brother-in-law, please eat, push, uncle's kiss is not as good as the first kiss."

Everyone dispersed with a grin, and after everyone dispersed, Cao Hu's face immediately sank, and his fists were clenched.

Shangyuan Festival, is a traditional festival of the Chinese nation, in the beginning of the first yuan, the festival night of the rejuvenation of the earth, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, the lanterns on the ground are thousands of people watching the lanterns, guessing the lantern riddles, eating the Lantern Festival family reunion, the joy is harmonious, it is very lively, in order to show the spirit of fun with the people, the government will organize large and small lantern festivals, for the people to enjoy and guess the riddles, young men and women will also take this opportunity to find their other half, although the Ming Dynasty is not as prosperous as the Tang and Song Dynasty, especially in the disaster year, the scale is shrinking day by day, But in remote areas, it is still very important, such as Jiangyou County, every New Year, the county government will convene the township officials of each township Li Li and others to discuss, let them select exquisite lanterns to the county government to participate in the competition, and then donate how much money each to use as a reward, lively and lively.

The Chinese New Year, there is an official errand, naturally you can't be lazy, and you can't have less money for running errands, especially if you haven't passed the Yuan Festival, it's not even the end of the New Year, the red envelope has to be richer, this is a fat difference, in previous years, it was handed over to Cao Hu, but I didn't expect that this year, without knowing it, it was handed over to my subordinates, or bypassing myself, Cao Hu's heart was not to mention how depressed.

Especially Feidong's words, it woke up Cao Hu, think about it, this matter is not accidental, since he went to the county magistrate, his relationship with the county Cheng Chen Gui, although it shows that it is still very harmonious, but obviously not as good as before, intentionally or unintentionally, there seems to be some diaphragm, a lot of important things, Cao Hu felt that he was slowly kicked out of Chen Gui's nuclear circle, Chen Gui no longer believed in himself, but instead favored Zhang Chunnian and Li Dong, suddenly, Cao Hu had a stirring in his heart: Chen Gui will not choose one person from the two, Replace yourself, right?

Based on the recent table, the more Cao Hu thought about it, the more he looked like it, and then remembered the letter Li Yunniang wrote to himself, saying how he was wronged in the Chen family, Cao Hu couldn't help but clench his fists, and a fierce color appeared in his eyes, no, it should be a fierce light.

But as soon as he thought of Li Yunniang, Cao Hu couldn't help touching the letter he hid in his arms with his hand, which was the letter that Li Yunniang wrote to himself, and he couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart, and shouted in his heart: Yunniang, you must come then.

Cao Hu pretended to be fine, didn't go to Chen Gui to theorize, and was obedient to Chen Gui, but Chen Gui didn't know whether he was calm or didn't have time to move Cao Hu, and the two were safe for a while.

Unconsciously, it was the three-day period, Cao Hu, who had been impatient for a long time, casually found a reason to patrol, took off his official clothes, changed into civilian clothes, specially trimmed his face, asked Yahuan to comb his head, and changed into a brand new clothes, this rode on a horse, and rushed to Yunniang in the letter mentioned in the letter to the Moon Temple.

Guanyue Temple is about five miles outside Jiangyou City, Jiangyou is just a small county town, the population is not much and all kinds of temples, Taoist temples are a lot, there are more than ten people who can be named, it seems that some monks have more porridge and less, Guanyue Temple does not occupy the famous mountain, there is no Taoist monk to preside, there is no official care, this is not big or small, it is said that there are seven monks in the heyday of the temple and now there is only one old monk named Huiqing who is responsible for taking care of it, even if it is a person, the incense is barely maintained.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Huiqing felt that he had gone lucky, because he met a noble person on this day, when Cao Hu arrived, Huiqing also thought that these officials who saw the money and opened their eyes did not even let go of the Buddhist door, and when they wanted to pay tribute, they did not think that this Cao Zhutou casually donated a piece of sesame oil money of five taels of silver, and Huiqing smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and even shouted "good", and said a lot of Bodhisattva blessing words, that is, when Cao Hu asked for a clean room in the backyard for rest, Huiqing also agreed.

"Master, there will be an old man who will come to meet, and then I will ask the master to make it convenient." Cao Hu said far away, and then said a little domineeringly: "I think, the master will help with this, right." ”

The head catcher is equivalent to the public security director of the later generations, the power is very great, Cao Hu's words, half is a request, half is a threat, the old monk Huiqing has lived for decades, the wind and waves have seen a lot, and immediately said when he heard the words: "Cao Zhutou rest assured, it is convenient for others to be convenient with himself, and the monks do not fight crazy words and do not stir up trouble, since the head catcher has important matters to discuss, the poor monk must not bother, it is located in the middle of nowhere, and the whole temple is only one old monk in the care, there are no outsiders, and no one will go to the backyard to run around, please rest assured." ”

As soon as Cao Hu spoke, Huiqing guessed that this Cao Zhutou might have a tryst with the Liang family here, if it was a ** woman, it could be above board, only those who did not see the light should avoid everyone, as for why they came to the secluded temple, it can also be explained, now there are more and more rich people, such as playing with Yangzhou thin horses, raising rabbits, harsh in the wild, etc., it is not news, some people also like to have a quiet tryst in Buddhism, that is, they feel that this is more exciting, easier to excite**, this thing is too much, Although this is in conflict with the rules of Buddhism, but the incense of Guanyue Temple is insufficient, Huiqing's life is very poor, and the monk's clothes are still the year before last, and there is no new clothes for two years, and I can't stand the ** of silver.

Besides, Cao Hu is the head catcher of a county, and he is a monk who is not in the stream, and others can clean himself up with their fingers, so Huiqing agreed very wisely, not only agreed, but also took the initiative to say that he would tighten his tone and not let outsiders disturb him.

Cao Hu was very satisfied with this, nodded and said: "Master Lao, if there are lawbreakers in your temple in the future, you can go to the county government to find me." ”

Huiqing hurriedly thanked him, and made a pot of good tea for Cao Hu before he was willing to make it during the festival, and then said: "Cao Zhutou waited for a while, the backyard was a little messy, the old monk went to clean it first, and it will be good soon, there is a pot of coarse tea here, although the tea leaves are rough, but it is brewed with good spring water, and it can barely be entered, please use it slowly." ”

Having money can make ghosts grind, Cao Hu was very satisfied with this Huiqing's expression, and when he heard this, he arched his hand and said, "There is Master Lao." ”

About two quarters of an hour, the clean room in the backyard has been prepared, but Cao Hu is not in a hurry to move in, but leaning on the mountain gate, looking through the autumn water and looking at the mountain road below, looking forward to the appearance of the shadow that has appeared thousands of times in the dream, waiting, waiting for nearly two hours, until the afternoon of the day, when Cao Hu was so anxious that he was about to get on fire, suddenly his eyes lit up: a pretty figure was slowly walking from the bottom of the mountain to the Guanyue Temple located in the middle of the mountain.

That figure was so familiar, so pretty, so graceful, that Cao Hu became excited when he saw it, and his little heart was like a drum, banging non-stop.
