In the medical hall, when Xie Yikou and the others were eating, the little medicine boy came to remind him not to overeat.

Xie Yikoule nodded in agreement, and when the little medicine boy left, he turned his head and snatched the chicken leg from Jiang Weixi's bowl.

Jiang Weixi scolded him, "Brothers are looking for you all over the mountains, it's better for you to follow the county order to lie here and eat and drink." ”

"Come on, you, when you find me, it's already cold." Xie Yikou dismantled the stage indifferently, "A group of unreliable!" ”

Jiang Weixi choked, "Anyway, isn't it looking for you now?" When you go back, the brothers let you scold. He asked the old doctor in the infirmary, and also learned that Xie Yikou almost went to report to Lord Yan. Looking at people at this time, I always feel scared and guilty.

Xie Yikou said: "Okay, they are all faceless and skinless, and scolding a few words is like tickling." Moreover, I don't plan to go back recently. ”

"What's going on?" Jiang Weixi unconsciously became serious.

Xie Yikou pressed the corner of his forehead: "You and the fourth child can handle the affairs in the village, remember to restrain the brothers, the old man took the wrong path, I don't want to go again." ”

"You...... You've decided? ”

Xie Yikou nodded, his gaze a little dark, "Second ...... Is the traitor dead? ”

"Dead, I saw it with my own eyes. The eagle and a few of his brothers also died, and we didn't kill those who surrendered, those who were willing to stay stayed, and those who were willing to go. Jiang Weixi's face was a little gloomy, as if he had thought of something bad. But you know, our brothers...... I heard that Qingfeng County came to the new county order, and I wanted to make a profit. ”

"How dare they?" Xie Yikou opened a pair of sharp eyes, his face was cold, "Go back and tell them that the old man's affairs are over, and the brothers in the village will leave or stay with them." But there is one thing, no one is allowed to do what was left behind. ”

Jiang Weixi nodded, his expression gloomy: "If it weren't for the people who ate inside and outside and united with Xia Qingshan's gang, the old man wouldn't have been gone." ”

Xie Yikou put a mattress on his head and said, "Go back, in the future, our village will settle in Xiaqing Mountain." Wait for things in the village to be dealt with......"

Jiang Weixi nodded while listening to Xie Yikou's instructions.

In the afternoon, Wen Zhesang did not come to the hospital again, Wen Yan took the food box, and did not see Jiang Weixi.

Two more days have passed, and Ma San, who is reciting notices in the yamen, is approaching. Fortunately, several people were afraid of Wen Shi, although he couldn't do it, but when he stared, he could make people tremble. Under such oppression, Zhao Er was the first to memorize the notice, and as a reward, Wen Zhesang gave him a set of four treasures of the study.

Zhao Er's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he rubbed his hands together before he dared to take it, and the whole person seemed to be stepping on the clouds.

What Wen Zhesang didn't know was that Zhao Er didn't tell anyone about it, not even his closest brother. He kept the four treasures of the study at home, as if he had treasured a soft, pure dream.

The last person memorized the notice, and Wen Zhisang told them to get started. On the first day, five people came to the yamen, and after asking about their origins, they found that only three of the five people had listened to the advice of Ma San and others.

Apparently someone is lazy. But they cover each other, and neither of them will "betray" anyone. So Wen Zhesan took two taels of silver out as a reward for them to report each other. And in order to prevent them from cheating, the whistleblower needs to produce conclusive evidence, such as where the reported person is lazy, who can testify, and so on.

No one reported it on the first day.

The next day, seven people were persuaded to go to the Yamen.

The next day, Ma San was reported by Dazhu.

On the third day, twelve people were persuaded to go to the Yamen.

On the third day, no one was reported.

Ten years passed, Wen Zhesang successively recruited two porters and six catchers. And Ma San's group of people who walked the streets and alleys, pulling people to recite notices when they opened their mouths, gradually became well-known.

On this day, the weather was fine, the spring was in the bright sunshine, and the people in the county gathered at the gate of the county government early in the morning and discussed in a low voice. There were two gatekeepers standing at the entrance of the yamen, both of whom craned their necks and looked inside the door.

At this glance, I saw a few boxes tied with red silk in the courtyard, and there were some servants standing next to them, and the people in charge were beaming with joy and saying something to Dongxue.

"If you say you don't accept it, you won't accept it, and you will go back wherever you came from, otherwise, beware of me asking someone to drive you out."

Dong Xue had a cold face, very dissatisfied with this person who claimed to be the head of the Shang family. These people came uninvited, and they also brought a few boxes of gifts, saying that they were congratulating the new county commander on taking office, who didn't know that they wanted to have a relationship with the young lady behind their backs? If you really accept these gifts, it will be fishy.

In the face of Dongxue's lack of face, Shang Jinquan still smiled on his face, and said bluntly: "These are all a piece of our master's heart, and the girl just helped the county magistrate to refuse, is it really not okay?" Besides, how can the girl be sure that the county order will not be accepted? ”

Dongxue said: "I was ordered by the adults to come to drive you." If you lord really have a heart, why don't you come and invite the adults to meet yourself, and you have to rush to deliver a few tattered boxes on your dog's legs? It's just a person who tends to be inflammatory, and the adults in my family naturally don't see it. ”

Her words really slapped Shang Jinquan's face, Shang Jinquan couldn't help smiling, the corners of his mouth drooped, but his eyes didn't look at Dongxue, "My lord is kind enough to congratulate the county commander on his appointment, I didn't expect the lord to be so anxious to give off the horse, and the little one went back to the lord, so that he could see what is called official authority!" ”

He said this so loudly that it was heard clearly by people inside and out. Dongxue was not afraid of him, and said, "What are you arguing about? Louder and louder? I think you'd better go back and cry with your master, and maybe you can get some money. ”

Shang Jinquan lived to be half a hundred years old, and he had never been given face by a little girl, he waited for a while, and saw that Wen Zhesang still had no intention of coming out. So he glared at Dongxue fiercely, and then asked someone to carry the things back to the business.

The people at the gate of the yamen watched them leave, but when they turned around, they saw Dongxue coming out, "I have seen the excitement, everyone has dispersed." She smiled and didn't see a trace of the momentum of confrontation with Shang Jinquan.

The crowd really dispersed, and a few enthusiastic aunts still took Dongxue's hand and said: "Girl, that Shang Jin is not easy to provoke, if you meet it in the future, quickly turn around and leave, remember?" ”

"Isn't it! That family is not good, alas, or our Lord Wen has a temperament, and we can't see him! ”

"Phew! What cats and dogs also want to see Lord Wen, dreaming! ”

Several aunts chattered and scolded Shang Jinquan from head to toe, and then praised Wen Zhesang to the point that there is nothing in the sky and no earth. Dongxue was a little overwhelmed, so she hurriedly sent a few people away, and then went to find Wen Zhesang.

As soon as Dongxue saw Wen Zhesang, she smiled and said, "My lord is really a good means, avoiding those people and cutting off their excuse for clinging." And so many people in front of the crowd watched, so that everyone knew your position. ”

Wen Zhesang looked at the branches with tender green new leaves outside the window, and said truthfully: "There is a long way to go, and the matter here is far from being so easy to solve. All the people want is to live and work in peace and contentment, they have been oppressed by the rich for a long time, and I have drawn a line with the Shang family today, and they are naturally happy to hear it. And the Shang family ......"

She raised the file in her hand, "It's not clean." ”

By the end of February, the peach blossoms in the courtyard of the yamen were enthusiastically spitting out their fragrance, and the yamen had already filled up a lot. During this period, Wen Zhesang also found a master.

The master's name is Song Hanshu, and he is a showman. He was not from Qingfeng County, two years ago, his family was in the middle of the road, and he was also weak and sick, so he had to return to his ancestral hometown Qingfeng County with the old servants of his family. But who knew that Qingfeng County at that time was also a hell.

When Wen Zhesang heard about him, this person had been lying on the sickbed for a long time, his family was surrounded by walls, and he had no money to get medicine. The old servant of the family knelt before his sickbed, and waited for his master to go, and he followed him.

Wen Zhesang asked for him to be healed, and said what he meant. Song Hanshu immediately nodded and agreed, and since then, he has become the master of Qingfeng County.

In short, in the past month, the yamen has begun to take shape.

A few days ago, Xie Yikou was finally let out by the old doctor of the medical hall, he went straight to the yamen, received a set of fast clothes from Dongxue, and reported to Wen Zhesang on the same day, becoming a fast catcher in the yamen.

And Wen Zhesang was not idle, she sorted out the files piled up in the study, she learned that Qingfeng County was not actually poor, but after Wang De took office, he oppressed the people, which made Qingfeng County fall into dire straits.

In addition to Wang De, another threat to the safety of the people is the mountain bandits in the nearby mountains. Especially in the Eagle Village in Xiaqing Mountain, Wang De colluded with the creditors of the Eagle Village, using his power to loot the people's fat and ointment, and at the same time suppressing the people with the power of the mountain bandits.

After Wang De was detained, the imperial court also sent troops to encircle and suppress Xia Qingshan, but unfortunately the group of mountain bandits heard the news early and fled.

Wen Zhesang still remembers that day she picked up Xie Yikou, and Xie Yikou also said that he was injured by mountain bandits. As far as she knew, the mountain bandits near Qingfeng County were the most active in Xiaqing Mountain Eagle Village. After all, the mountain bandits are a danger buried around the people, and she can't let them go. But how?

Wen Zhesang sat under the peach tree, and the wind blew off the crimson peach blossoms, falling on her hair and on the palm of her hand.

As soon as Xie Yikoufu raised her eyes, she saw the people under the tree, she was quiet and introverted, and at first glance she only looked like the ladies in the books that Jiang Weixi loved to read. But she is not like those soft girls, and the young lady can only cry and cry and hurt the spring and autumn.

She was alone, with documents and holy decrees, and then propped up a yamen—although this yamen now only cares about the quarrel between the Zhang family's mother-in-law and the Li family's aunt, or who took two more cloves of garlic when buying vegetables. Parents are short, and so on.

Xie Yikou strode over, and didn't stop when Wen Zhesang looked over. When he arrived in front of someone, he could see her hair with red and bright flowers, and he felt a little beautiful in his heart, and some inexplicable happiness.

"What do you think, so obsessed?" He stood leaning against the tree, just behind her, and from a distance he looked like he was protecting something.

Wen Zhesang came back to his senses, "I'm thinking about the mountain bandits in Xia Qingshan." She glanced at Xie Yikou and remembered that this person had been robbed by mountain bandits, "Those who robbed you at the beginning of the month." The vicinity of Qingfeng County is mountainous, and the mountain bandits occupy the mountain as the king, and can even cut off the road out of the county. I can't stay in such danger. ”

Xie Yikou blinked, and it took a long time before he said an inexplicable "oh".

Wen Zhesang looked up at him, a little unsure of what he meant.

Xie Yikou touched his nose, of course he couldn't tell her that Xia Qingshan had already changed her court, and the group of grandsons in Eagle Village had already been scattered, and they had long been far away from here.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Wen Zhesang finally decided to discuss with Song Hanshu, the weather has warmed up recently, but Song Hanshu contracted a cold a few days ago, and he is still resting at home today. Wen Zhesang was going to Song Hanshu's house at this time.

It was still early when she went out, so she led Wen Yan and Wen Zhi forward, and originally wanted to call Xie Yikou together, but as soon as she turned her head, the person disappeared.
