Chapter 44: The Wedding Dress
Ye Xiaotian's heart was pounding, he knew that the most critical time had come. Lin Shilang said so much, it is clear that he wants to make a deal with him, if he can satisfactorily solve the matter of changing customs, let Lin Shilang have an explanation to the court, and let the emperor have dignity, Lin Shilang will ensure that he sits firmly in the position of county prince.
Is the county small? Small, for the big officials in the court, a county, very small. But for the people below, it is a powerful figure second only to Baili Supreme, and that is an official of the eighth grade.
Ye Xiaotian is now a miscellaneous official who has not entered the stream, from not entering the stream to entering the stream, this is a hurdle that is difficult for many miscellaneous officials who have not entered the stream for a lifetime, and this is a hundred times more difficult than the modern transfer from outside the system to the system.
The lowest official of "entering the stream" is from the ninth rank, then the ninth rank, from the eighth grade, and the eighth grade, so to be precise, if Ye Xiaotian can sit firmly in the position of the county prince, he will actually rise not only to the third level, but to the fourth level. But after some contact, Ye Xiaotian found that this Lin Shilang was very shrewd and not a person who was easy to manipulate, he wouldn't be playing any tricks on himself, right?
Ye Xiaotian struggled in his heart, Lin Shilang saw his scruples, smiled, took a sip of tea, and said leisurely: "If this matter can be resolved smoothly, the official will be able to return to Beijing!" Autumn is coming, and the official is very busy, so he can't delay in Huxian for long. If the matter cannot be resolved......"
Lin Shilang let out a long sigh, Ye Xiaotian put his heart sideways, what do you do when you are afraid of wolves and tigers, I am thinking about it, and I have not left Jinling to lay it skillfully, and put down such a big game, isn't it just to introduce "external force" to break this layer of ice. Now the opportunity is in front of you, and the myth of upgrading to level eight in two years can be realized half of it at once, and wealth is in danger. Don't miss it!
Ye Xiaotian raised his head and said resolutely: "Lord Qincha, the lower official...... Willing to give it a try! β
β¦β¦
"Guard Jiang, please do me a favor. Little Hearts ......"
Mrs. Qi Qi stuffed a large ingot of silver into the hands of a brocade-robed guard, and the guard pushed back and said: "No, no, then Xu Boyi is a prisoner, how dare I match you, once Lord Qincha is blamed, I can't afford to bear the guilt." β
Mrs. Qi Qi choked up and said, "Guard Jiang is gracious." The slave family only said a few words to him, and he didn't dare to disturb too much, just a few words, and the slave family left after speaking. β
Mrs. Qi Qi knelt down as she spoke, hugging Jiang Guard's thigh and begging bitterly. Jiang Guard was helpless, and finally stomped his feet and said, "Done!" Come with me for a quarter of an hour, and when the hour comes. You're leaving! β
Mrs. Qi Qi burst into laughter, nodded again and again, and said, "Thank you Jiang Guard, the slave family remembers!" β
The courtyard where Li Xuancheng lives is very elegant, with deep winding paths and connected corridors. There is a patio in the courtyard, which is also surrounded by verdant vines. There was a cage in the patio, and Xu Boyi withered inside, listless. There was an air lamp hanging overhead. The dim light shone on him.
Guard Jiang led Mrs. Qi Qi to the courtyard, looked around nervously, and said, "I'll go to the intersection to show you." Time is fast! β
Mrs. Qi Qi agreed, and the Jiang guards flashed towards the entrance of the corridor. It's getting late, and at this hour, Uncle Guo usually doesn't come out, and Jiang Guard is worried that he will be bumped into by other guards, so he goes to the intersection to guard first.
Mrs. Qi Qi slowed down and walked forward, and when she saw Xu Boyi's miserable appearance, she couldn't help but feel sour, and tears suddenly flowed.
Mrs. Qi Qi was committed to Xu Boyi at the beginning, just to find a backer, but after getting along for so long, people are not grass and trees, how can they not have a little feeling, and now she really regards Xu Boyi as a lifelong dependent, seeing him end up like this, she can't help but feel sad.
Xu Boyi was in prison, all thoughts were discouraged for a while, and he didn't have the heart to eat dinner, at this time the hunger was particularly strong, he pressed his stomach, and was snuggling in a corner weakly, although he heard a burst of footsteps, but he didn't bother to look up, but he suddenly heard a burst of sobbing, his heart couldn't help moving, and he hurriedly raised his head and saw Mrs. Qi Qi.
Xu Boyi's eyes lit up, he got up suddenly, rushed over and grabbed the cage tightly, and said excitedly: "Qi Qi, why are you here, but...... But did Chin Chaken let me go? β
Mrs. Qi Qi shook her head, and tears flowed down her face......
Li Xuancheng studied ink and lifted the pen, and with only a few strokes, a beautiful woman with both form and spirit jumped on the paper, and the beauty who looked back and smiled and looked forward to Yanran was Xia Yingying. Li Xuancheng looked at it for a long time, and suddenly thought that such a beautiful woman had already married a woman, and a look of disgust suddenly appeared between his eyebrows.
He grabbed the picture, tore it up viciously, threw it at the desk angrily, and said with great jealousy: "You are a pool of crystal clear spiritual springs, only I am worthy of you, but you don't want to be willing to fall, why should you be turned into a pool of filthy stagnant water by such a vulgar man!" β
Li Xuancheng scolded happily in his mouth, but he really let go of it in his heart. However, Yiren is married, what can he do? Li Xuancheng stood for a long time, couldn't help but sigh for a long time, walked away lonely, and gently pushed the door open.
In the patio, Xu Boyi gritted his teeth and said: "Ye Xiaotian, I don't share the sky with him!" But there is a breath of air, and I will never let him go! β
Xu Boyi had the opportunity to climb to the eldest lady of the Zhan family, as long as he could continue to hide it for a while, he would take Siniang off first, but who knew that he would kill Ye Xiaotian and beat him up, making him infamous in Hu County. finally hugged Tian's thigh again, but Ye Xiaotian came to oppose him again.
If it weren't for Ye Xiaotian, the rival, he would have completely mastered Huxian County in his hands, and this time the vulgar thing can also be carried out smoothly, and then he will be able to go to the next level, and when the time comes, there will be the emperor's favor, and there will be Tian's arm next to him, and the career will be a broad road, but now?
Mrs. Qi Qi said hopefully: "My lord, is there any room for maneuver in this matter?" Is it impossible...... Will the court open the net? β
Xu Boyi was silent for a long time, shook his head gently, and the look in Mrs. Qi Qi's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Xu Boyi laughed miserably: "In Huxian, I can cover the sky with one hand." But in the eyes of the emperor, an official like me is really nothing, and this time, my best situation is to depose the people and never use them. β
Mrs. Qi Qi's heart trembled, and she suddenly grabbed Xu Boyi's hand, and wept: "Forget it." This official, if you don't do it, you won't do it. If you depose the people and never use them, you will never use them. Ye Xiaotian, we can't fight, as long as you can be safe, ...... in the future From now on, let's live in peace......"
Xu Boyi was surprised, he originally wanted the wealth and sex of Qi Mu's wives and concubines, and Mrs. Qi Qi was willing to commit herself to him, naturally because of his power. Originally, the two sides were just a combination of interests, but I didn't expect that today, this Qi Qi Seventh Lady would have true feelings for him.
Xu Boyi was a little moved, but he had been determined to be an official and a big official since he was a child, and this obsession was a little stronger than Li Xuancheng, who was trapped in love, but his future was ruined again and again in the hands of Ye Xiaotian, how could Xu Boyi be willing.
Thinking of Ye Xiaotian, the slight emotion in Xu Boyi's heart suddenly turned into boundless murderous aura: "Never use it." That's just the best outcome, and it's likely to ...... I don't even have a head! Besides, even if I could not die, I would have been so badly harmed by him. How to live willingly? I just want to kill him now! As long as you can kill him! I'm willing to pay a qiΔ! β
Li Xuancheng stood behind Tengluo, quietly listening to the conversation between the two, his eyes flickered a few times, and his lonely face gradually turned into a gloomy smile......

The canonical history belongs to the civil and foreign officials who have not entered the stream (below the nine grades). However, when the positions of county officials and chiefs in the county are vacant, their responsibilities are concurrently held by the canon. Therefore, the positions of the canonical history are all selected by the officials and appointed by the emperor, and they belong to the "imperial court officials".
Xu Boyi was imprisoned for the crime of bullying the king. Ye Xiaotian became the county governor of Quanzhi and acted as his agent. Because of the huge obstacle between the unentered and the influential, in fact, it is generally difficult for those who are also responsible for acting as a county official to be a regular like other positions, but this person is Ye Xiaotian, and there are not many people in Huxian County who have doubts.
It seems that as long as it is Ye Xiaotian, then any miracle that happens to him has become a matter of course. He, the acting county minister, was directly ignored by everyone and regarded him as a real county minister, so there were many people who came to visit the gift and banquet in the past two days.
In terms of hospitality and response, only Tao Siniang, who was originally a talented lady in Ye Mansion, could do it, so this internal housekeeper was quickly upgraded to a big housekeeper, and he had to handle it inside and out, and under her management, everything was in order.
The guests who came to visit Ye Xiaotian did not meet the main owner, and it was difficult to find his trace even in the county office, and he was frequently in and out of various cottages these days, and he seemed very busy. In fact, the biggest obstacle to Yi Shu is himself, he wants to backhand Yun Yi as easily, but it is too easy, doesn't it verify that the opposition of the previous clan leaders is from his instructions?
Although the officials of Huxian County and even Lin Shilang know this, they still have to do face work. Ye Xiaotian has worked hard to save face for three days, and he feels about the same, and if he delays any longer, he will inevitably pretend to be too angry, I am afraid that Lin Shilang will be impatient.
So Ye Xiaotian went to Gaojiazhai again, had a meal of wine with Gao Li and the two village owners, returned to the county with a little drunkenness, and went straight to Qincha Xingyuan, telling SΓΉ Lin Shilang that he had successfully persuaded the leaders of the tribes that everyone agreed to change customs! Of course, there is still a reward for the owners of Gao and Li villages, because the owners of Gao and Li villages have made great efforts and helped him a lot.
Lin Shilang is like an arrow, if Ye Xiaotian doesn't come again, he really wants to beat this bad thing that doesn't open his eyes, as soon as he heard Ye Xiaotian say that everything is ready, Lin Shilang was overjoyed, and immediately decided to make a big gift tomorrow, which was presided over by Ye Xiancheng himself.
Mess up, you sing and I'll appear. It is ridiculous to make wedding garments for others. Early the next morning, the county school was lively again, but no one could think of Xu Boyi who made wedding clothes for others, and everyone only had the dazzling "bride" in their eyes - Ye Xiaotian!
: According to custom, you generally do not go out on the third day of the Lunar New Year, because it is a red mouth, and you should avoid quarrels with people to prevent provoking right and wrong. But in such a good festival, everyone is happy, how can there be unpleasant things, whether it is playing mahjong at home and watching TV, or going out to visit relatives and friends, I wish my book friends happiness and laughter! (To be continued......)
