The senior brother was shocked when he heard this, "Sect Master, I am still young, how can I take care of the affairs of the sect?" What's more, I really deserve the position of this big head! ”

"You have already married Ling'er, and it stands to reason that you are also the son-in-law of my Dugu Sect. If I don't hand it over to you, will I have to hand it over to outsiders to reassure me? Ji Qiang patted the senior brother on the shoulder, "It's just that you just got married and gave you such a burden, I don't know if Ling'er will be unhappy if she finds out." ”

The senior brother scratched his head and said, "I really don't know this. Since the sect leader trusts him so much, then I'll try? ”

"It's not a try, it's a good job!"

"I believe in you." Ji Qiang looked at Senior Brother seriously.

Ji Qiang announced the news that the senior brother would be the big head in public, and as expected, no one in the sect objected. After all, the senior brother has been in the Dugu Sect for so many years, and he has also helped the old sect leader take care of the affairs of the sect, and he is also quite popular, and now he is married to Dugu Ling'er, so naturally no one will have an opinion.

Bidding farewell to everyone in the Dugu Sect, the two went all the way back to the capital.

"The route you're looking for is very good, there are mountains and rivers." Ji Qiang lifted the curtain and looked at the surrounding landscape, "You stop the car first, let's get down and walk for a while, right?" Ji Qiang suggested.

The carriage slowly stopped, Xia Jingnian hugged Ji Qiang down, she stretched her waist, "I haven't been so comfortable for a long time." ”

The two held hands, Xia Jingnian saw Ji Qiang's satisfied appearance, and couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, you have been busy with the affairs of the Dugu Sect, now you can take a good rest." ”

"It's just that going back to the palace inevitably requires you to work hard." Ji Qiang looked at the sky in the distance, "It's true that the greater the responsibility, the more things you do." ”

Why doesn't Xia Jingnian want to swim among the mountains and rivers with Ji Qiang? But the burden on them was too heavy to allow them to continue to have fun like this.

Walking to the river, Xia Jingnian picked up the water and splashed it on Ji Qiang, Ji Qiang was stunned for a moment, and splashed the water back at Xia Jingnian, "Okay, you, actually attacked me!" ”

It's good to steal half a day of leisure like this, and it's also a good memory after returning to the palace.

After making trouble for a while, Ji Qiang's stomach gurgled, and she touched her stomach embarrassedly, "I'm hungry." ”

Xia Jingnian was looking for a remote path. Even if I turn around and walk to the town now, I'm afraid that I will have to walk for a while, "Why don't I bring you some fruit?" ”

"Good! It's been a long time since I've eaten the wild fruits of the mountains. Ji Qiang happily agreed: "Why don't I go with you?" ”

He stopped the carriage on one side, tied the horse, and let it graze beside it, and the two went into the woods together to gather some fruit.

I don't know if the two of them were lucky or what, they actually came back with some game.

Xia Jingnian went to the river to catch two more fish, took out the flint from the carriage, lit it, and sat around the fire to roast fish and game.

The aroma of food wafted in, Ji Qiang was hungry, her stomach was screaming even more, seeing her little greedy cat appearance, Xia Jingnian smiled dotingly, although he was also hungry, but nothing was more important than filling his stomach with his own queen.

handed a grilled fish to Ji Qiang, who took it with a smile and feasted on it.

"Delicious!" Ji Qiang couldn't stop praising Xia Jingnian, seeing that she was happy to eat, Xia Jingnian was also happy in her heart.

After eating, the two set off again, and before they knew it, they actually arrived in Luoyang.

"Luoyang has arrived." Ji Qiang looked at the two big characters on the city gate in front of him, "When you arrive in Luoyang, you will not be far from the capital." ”

Ji Qiang looked back at Xia Jingnian, "Let's go." ”

As soon as I entered the city, I saw a child being chased and beaten, and behind him were two people who looked like family members, "You little fart, don't look at who you provoke!" ”

The onlookers shook their heads and sighed, although they wanted to fight for the child, but none of them dared to step forward.

"Two big men, bullying a little child, like something!" Ji Qiang just wanted to go up to help, but was pulled by a lady, "The girl is from out of town, right?" The old woman advises you to leave it alone, so as not to get into trouble. ”

The meaning of these words made Ji Qiang and Xia Jingnian look at each other, is this someone running rampant in Luoyang City?

Shouldn't it be? Luoyang City is also a big city, who would be so powerful and can do evil in Luoyang City? Does the local festival make it unimportant?

"Auntie, what do you mean by that? Does someone bully people, and the festival does not care? Ji Qiang asked.

When she asked, the eldest lady shook her head and sighed: "These two family members are the people of the Jiedu envoy family." ”

"This festival envoy is not only greedy for money, but also lustful! Who in this Luoyang City doesn't walk around their door? rampant and domineering, the people are miserable! The eldest lady said sadly: "However, our emperor is far away from the emperor and does not know these things." ”

The Jiedu envoy is the highest official in Luoyang City, even if there are people who want to complain, they are afraid that they will be pressed down when they get to the Jiedu envoy here, no wonder Xia Jingnian and Xia Yuxuan don't know what happened in Luoyang City.

"The envoy is just a petty official, how can he still be greedy for money?" Ji Qiang asked curiously.

"This county government, the government office, and the people who set up stalls on this street, which one is not a good place for him to make money? The magistrate of our county yali doesn't know how many have been replaced. Whoever gives him more money, he will let whoever be! "It's already like this, even if there is any dispute between the people, when they go to the county office, no one will pay attention, but it's just that it's over, and they have to pay the county government money to try the case.

Coming and going, not only does this county yali have nothing to do, but also can take the court's money, who doesn't know that the county yali is a beautiful difference?

If you want to go to the county government to catch fast, it is enough to give the county lord some money, and the county is using the money to honor the envoys.

In addition, the festival envoy is the biggest official here, and he can be said to be the head snake here, and no one can help him.

"Not only that, he is also very lustful, he has seven concubines in his house!" The eldest lady looked around and whispered in Ji Qiang's ear: "He also likes young girls, so he has found many young girls to serve." ”

"Those seven concubines are famous, and I don't know how many young girls there are!" The eldest lady glanced at the half-dead little boy who was beaten, "He is the one who was robbed to the house of the Jiedu envoy by my sister, and my sister was abused to death, and in order to give my sister a grievance, he was beaten." ”

The little boy was beaten half to death, and several of the family members spat at him, asking the defenders to drag him out and prevent him from staying in the city any longer.

The surrounding people were also scattered, Ji Qiang and Xia Jingnian glanced at each other, knowing that it was time for this Luoyang City to be properly rectified.

The two found an inn to live in, and asked Xiao Er about this festival.
