Chapter 63: Xu Jigui
After several days of traveling, Xu Ji returned to Yuxian under the escort of Chen Zhi and Xu Qian, and was greeted by Mao Jie.
When he saw Mao Jie, Xu Ji got off the horse with a smile, walked to Mao Jie, who was standing outside the pavilion, patted Mao Jie's shoulder and said, "Xiaoxian has worked hard, I have been infamous a lot, and I have wronged you." ”
Mao Jie smiled and saluted: "It's okay, it's good if the lord returns, Chen Qing has already taken it for us, and now he is waiting for the lord to be sent in the Yuxian prison." Yu County is thriving under the arrangement of Gongda, and Mao Jie is also lazy to rest and rest, but he wants to thank the lord and thank him. ”
Xu Ji smiled and didn't say much, he naturally understood what Mao Ji meant, and Xu Ji was most pleased with this, he was not proud of himself, such a person was always worthy of being trusted. Xu Ji went into the city together after seeing Mao Jie, Xun You was busy with official business so he sent Mao Jie's to greet him, he himself did not have any intention of welcoming him, Xun You also knew that Xu Ji had always disliked this kind of scene, and it was not as meaningful to deal with political affairs as much as this time.
With Mao Jie, Xu Ji also returned to the county governor's mansion, which has now been transformed into the post governor's mansion, and all of Xu Ji's belongings have also been moved here, Xun You is handling affairs in the main hall, Xu Ji did not disturb him but put down his salute and went directly to the prison in Yu County, he must go to see Chen Qing.
I still have a little appreciation for Chen Qing and Xu Ji, at least his vision is accurate, although the means are not decisive enough, but he is undoubtedly an extremely good staff, if he can say that Chen Qing is undoubtedly a good supplement without recruiting Liang Xi, after all, Xu Ji has just entered Yuan County, he needs such a representative to appease the family of Yuan County for him, Chen Qing is undoubtedly the best choice.
Chen Qing was quite surprised that Xu Ji came to see him in person, and then he thought that Xu Ji should be the first to solve the rest of the families in Yu County, he is now a mortal person, he is quite comfortable in prison these days, after letting go of his obsession and the burden of the family, Chen Qing seems extremely relaxed, and even when he saw Xu Ji, he still had the leisure to greet Xu Ji: "How come Lord Inspector has time to come to see me, a prisoner of crime?" "Indescribable carefree and detached.
Xu Ji ordered the jailer to open the door, walked into the cell, looked around and said with a smile: "I'll see if Mr. Zixiu's life is going well." ”
"Thank you Lord Inspector for your concern, Chen Zixiu is not good or bad. Is the post superintendent here to take Zixiu's head? ”
Xu Ji smiled when he heard this, sat down on the ground, and pointed to the open space opposite him and motioned for Chen Qing to sit down: "No, Mr. Zixiu's first-level Wen Lie doesn't need it. I have something to say to Mr. Zixiu, and Mr. Zixiu must have a lot of questions to ask me. ”
Chen Qing Shiran sat down and said flatly: "That's fine, since that's the case, what if Lord Inspector asks first or Zixiu first?" ”
"Respect for the elderly, gentleman first."
Hearing this, Chen Qing was not polite, and immediately asked, "Why does Lord Inspector insist on being the enemy of the world?" Since the post supervisor entered the county, we have kept to ourselves and no longer have trouble, why did we make the post supervisor hard to force each other? ”
Xu Ji replied with a smile: "Mr. Zixiu, do you know the difference between the Hanmen and the Shi clan?" ”
"It's nothing more than net worth and doorway."
"Yes, but not really. Let's ask if everyone from a poor family can go to school? Can a child of a poor family be an official? Let's ask if the children of the poor family can be the same as the children of the world? Xu Ji asked several times, and Chen Qing was silent for a long time and then replied: "No." ”
Xu Ji shook his head, looked at the ground in front of him and said slowly: "Because of this, the world has never been fair, and the children of the family can rely on their predecessors Yu Yin to become officials, or they can rely on their family background to do business." What about the children of the poor family? Most of his life is just a small official, or a housekeeper of a family, if Xu Ji is not Yundao, how can he become the postal supervisor of a county? Mr. Zixiu thinks why Wen Lie did this? ”
Chen Qing was silent, he naturally knew that the world of Lu Dao was unfair, he didn't think about this, in his opinion, this was a matter of course, of course, it was true that it was normal for the predecessors to pave the way for their descendants, but Chen Qing didn't know how many poor disciples in the Dao were still white.
Seeing that Chen Qing didn't speak, Xu Ji sighed and said: "Maybe Mr. thinks it's not the family's fault, but it's a pity that Xu Ji has no right and no ability to change the general trend of the world, so he has to try to see if he can change it under his own rule." It's not that Xu Ji wants the clan not to survive, but he wants the children of the poor family to have hope. ”
Chen Qing also sighed when he heard this, and said softly: "Lord Postmaster's mind is really not Zixiu's ability, so Zixiu is clear." I don't know what the post inspector wants to ask Zixiu? ”
Xu Ji smiled, didn't dwell on the topic, and instead asked, "Is Mr. Zixiu willing to be imprisoned in this cage?" ”
Chen Qing smiled and said with some helplessness: "Does Lord Inspector think Zixiu has any choice?" Since the lord is determined to seek the well-being of the Hanmen under his command, there is naturally no need for the family to exist. What's more, Zixiu is the culprit of the turmoil in Yu County, so Zixiu still has a choice? ”
Xu Ji smiled, he stretched out his hand and patted Chen Qing's shoulder and said, "Mr. thinks of himself too lightly, who else in this county can have more prestige and appeal than Mr. in the family?" Sir, if I use Sir, is Sirr willing to work for me? ”
Chen Qing was first shocked when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed, and then said: "What does Lord Postmaster want Zixiu to do?" ”
Xu Ji smiled with relief, Chen Qing was obviously a person on the Tao, he understood that Xu Ji's appointment of him must have some appeals, and it was much easier for such a person to communicate: "Sir, Wen Lie wants a stable Yuan County, does Mr. understand?" ”
Chen Qing frowned and said, "Lord Postmaster wants Zixiu to appease the family's heart for Lord Postmaster?" But this is ...... in the end."
Xu Ji said with a smile: "Wen Lie knows Mr. Lu Dao's worries, but the family and the poor family are not unable to coexist, what I want is that everyone has equal opportunities and equal status, the family is not inferior to others, and the poor family is not inferior." This is what Wen Lie wants, sir, can you understand? ”
Chen Qing pondered for a long time, looked at Xu Ji and said, "How big is the ambition of Lord Postover?" ”
Xu Ji looked up at the sky outside the window and sighed lightly: "What's the use of ambition?" Is it possible to be useful in this world if you have aspirations? How many ambitious people end up starving, and how many people die as dry bones? Life is just a few decades in the world, let's do some practical things, ambition or something, it's just a joke. ”
Chen Qing also smiled when he heard this: "It makes sense, it was originally decades of traveling, who is it busy for?" Anyway, thanks to the superintendent's post, Chen Qing is willing to give up his life to accompany him. After saying that, he let out a long breath, got up and knelt down solemnly: "Chen Qing greets the Lord." ”
Xu Ji smiled and helped Chen Qing up, and said with a smile: "With Mr. help, Yu County Anyi." "Let's say that people will untie the chains that bind Chen Qing. The two left the Yuxian Prison in parallel, but there was no rumor of what happened today, and when outsiders asked what happened to Chen Qing, who later became the assassin of Yizhou, he only smiled and replied: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed." "It's a legend.
And this is naturally not to be mentioned later.
Chen Qing was understood by Xu Ji after he entered the state, and soon appeased the panicked mentality of all the families in Yu County, and the private soldiers of the family were all absorbed by Xu Ji effortlessly, and Xun You also greatly appreciated Xu Ji's hand, if it really depends on Xu Ji's own ability to solve, this is a protracted work, and the family will never be able to hand over their private soldiers so cooperatively, and it is impossible to accept Xu Ji as the lord of Yu County. And now with Chen Qing's labor, everything has become extremely simple, and Xu Ji has taken this opportunity to really gain a firm foothold in Yu County, and now Yu County has no one who can shake Xu Ji's position, and with the help of Chen Qing, he has selected a lot of officials who can be reused, which greatly alleviated the dilemma of the lack of grassroots officials before Xu Ji.
With this, Xu Ji even wrote Chen Qing as the county lieutenant of Yu County, and Mao Jie served as the long history, it can be said that Yu County has completely become Xu Ji's back garden, and Zhang Miao has no reason to refute it, Chen Qing was originally a strong man in Yu County, and Mao Jie has been an official in Yu County for many years. Xu Ji has never disliked that there are too many talents in his hands.
And this series of decrees did calm the hearts of the people, and it made the people of Yuxian County grateful to Xu Ji, and the people who recognized him when Xu Ji walked around the streets of Yuxian County were very respectful and saluted him with a smile on their faces. Xu Ji couldn't help but sigh that the people are really simple, and they will support whoever can let them live a good life, which is about the so-called sadness.
Of course, Xu Ji can't enjoy this kind of life for too long, after all, he is the superintendent of Chen Liu, who patrols the town, and there are several counties waiting for him to deal with besides Yu County, of course, this time it is not a lot of planning, Xu Ji only needs to lead his troops to go, I believe that there is no one who does not open his eyes and will provoke Xu Ji, a bad star, Liu Xian is not cold.
And Xu Ji's next target is Xiangyi, for this time he went to Xiangyi, Xu Ji has some other plans, he plans to test Zhang Miao's attitude towards himself, if Zhang Miao has been wary of himself, then Xu Ji has to spend some effort to reassure Zhang Miao, after all, he is the top boss, the so-called not afraid of officials is only afraid of management, if this guy finds some people to restrain himself, although it is harmless, it is also extremely disgusting.
And if you want to test Zhang Miao's attitude, you naturally have to think about it. This Xu Ji didn't bother to bother with trouble, he threw it all to Xun You and Mao Jie, he was angry in Chen County for a while, and he was annoyed when he encountered these things recently, and now that he has a capable person under his account, why bother thinking about it.
When you can be lazy, you still have to be lazy, this is a rare steal to spend half a day free.
However, when Xu Ji was lazy here, Guo Jia of Yingyin was as anxious as an ant on a frying pot, Xun Yu did not reply for a long time, which made him extremely worried, if he failed, not only would his plan to rob Xun Yu fail, but he might even threaten his own life, this is not the result that Guo Fengxiao wanted, and Wenxuan was also nowhere to be seen for a few days, and he had to do everything in the Xu Mansion himself, which was a huge torture for Guo Jia, but now he has no leisure to complain.
He was worried about Xun Yu, but he didn't know that Xun Yu was also worried about Guo Jia.
The world is so impermanent, but the outcome will only be known when it happens.
