Speaking of which, although Lu Li had been living in Bishui Village under Taoyuan County before, he didn't know anything about the officials in this area.

Although his father-in-law's family is still living in Bishui Village, Lu Li has never thought about finding an official, and using his position to let them make it convenient for his father-in-law's family, he doesn't like to do this, and he hates being suspected of doing this.

Therefore, Lu Li has rarely asked about the things in this area of Taoyuan County.

But when he came back this time, Wei Xiuyuan specially gave Lu Li a copy of the biographical information of all the officials nearby, and even the personalities of these officials, the situation at home, etc., Lu Li still scoffed at it at the time, but he didn't want to use it now.

The prefect who came today is named Chen Tong, and he is a very sleek old official. Because he has always watched people put down dishes, and rarely offends people, if it weren't for Lu Li's identity there, I'm afraid this prefect wouldn't have come in such a short time.

However, what about these officials is not in the purpose of Lu Li's trip, besides, he is just a national prince with no real power, and he doesn't bother to care about the officials below, as long as they are not as ridiculous as Taoyuan County.

"Grandpa Guo." The prefect got out of the carriage and bowed to him, "Weichen is late, and I hope that the grandfather of the country will atone for his sins." ”

Chen Tong brought a small group of soldiers, each tall and large, wearing blue-gray armor, and roughly counted them, there were more than a dozen of them.

Lu Li waved his hand, his brows were still furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "No need, for now, let's deal with the affairs of the county as soon as possible, I still have some urgent matters at home." ”

The prefect nodded again and again, "Okay, good, the grandfather of that country, please." ”

The door of the county government was closed, and it took several knocks to get a response.

The wooden door slowly opened, and an official in a blue-gray official uniform poked his head out, and found that Lu Li and the prefect were standing outside.

"Stop!" Lu Li shouted loudly, and then stepped forward to grab the official messenger, grabbed the other party's collar and asked: "Where is the old man of your county, say!" ”

was asked by Lu Li like this, coupled with the gaze of the prefect and the dozen or so soldiers beside him, the fleeing official trembled like chaff, and his body was half soft, if it weren't for Lu Li still holding the collar of his clothes, I am afraid that this official would have fallen directly to the ground.

Chen Tong also lowered his face and shouted, "Don't say it quickly!" ”

The official trembled twice, lowered his head in fear, and whispered, "Our master... He ...... him, sir."

At this point, the official suddenly stopped, stumbling and stumbling, but he refused to continue.

Chen Tong was angry when he saw this, and he raised his hand, "Search for me!" ”

More than a dozen soldiers received orders and hurriedly scattered around to look for them. And Lu Li didn't say much, he directly loosened the collar of the official errand, and before the other party could breathe a sigh of relief, he quickly pinched the other party's throat and exerted some strength.

Lu Li has an excellent grasp of this proportion, and his strength is not great, so that he will not really suffocate the official to death, but he will not let the official disagree, this small punishment is enough to make an official who is usually pampered and pampered half scared to death.

Suddenly, the official who was struggling to breathe violently, his hands and feet struggled violently, and a "hissing" sound came out of his throat.

"Grandpa Guo, this ......" Chen Tong had never seen such a battle, and seeing that the range of the official's struggle was getting smaller and smaller, he couldn't help but look at Lu Li in a panic.

Lu Li snorted coldly, shook off the official errand, and immediately stepped forward quickly to suppress the opponent's chest with his feet, and said coldly: "Say, where did the county go." ”

The official was so angry that he no longer had the strength to struggle, he lay on the ground, his eyes were half-squinted, and he used up his last bit of strength, and replied: "County Cheng... The county lord is here, and he fled as early as yesterday......"

After saying this, the official had no strength anymore, and he fainted with his head tilted.

"Escaped?" Lu Li retracted his feet, his eyes lit up, "It's really a good guts, I actually dare to escape at this time." ”

Chen Tong frowned, and felt very awkward in his heart, the county Cheng had all fled, did he just slap his ass and leave, or send someone to track down the whereabouts of the county Cheng?

In fact, of course he wanted to choose the first one in his heart, because he came to deal with the county Cheng, and this county Cheng is gone, and there are other county Cheng to make up for it, as long as it does not affect his political performance, it doesn't matter who the county Cheng below is.

But now there is Lu Li here, if he dares to leave, then the grandfather of this country will go back to Beijing and report to the emperor, won't he be able to keep this black gauze hat on his head?

Chen Tong stood in place with his hands in his hands, and a pimple was twisted between his eyebrows.

"Governor Chen." Lu Li said in a deep voice: "What are you going to do next?" ”

As he spoke, he looked sideways at Chen Tong, there was no superfluous emotion on his face, and his eyes were not shocked, so he stood firmly, Rao was an old fritter like Chen Tong, and he didn't guess Lu Li's mind for a while.

Chen Tong's hands were clenched tightly, and he quickly analyzed Lu Li's thoughts at this moment in his heart.

Grandpa Guo didn't say it clearly in the letter, but said that he had discovered the collusion between the county Cheng of Taoyuan County and the thieves in the city, and took bribes privately, and was bold enough to let the thieves go. In the end, this Lu Li didn't say that this matter had anything to do with him.

But if it really doesn't matter, Lu Li will write a special letter to inform him, and let him quickly come to judge the county Cheng?

Lu Li rarely mixed up in the court before, and the prefect didn't know his temper, so he was very hesitant now, and he really didn't know which set to take to please this grandfather.

Thinking about it, Chen Tong felt a headache, and even began to regret why he was walking. Originally, I wanted to have a good relationship with Grandpa Guo, and by the way, I presented a majestic style, but I didn't want this majesty to be presented, and the relationship between myself and Grandpa Guo was also in an unknown situation.

"Chen Tong." Lu Li spoke again, lowered his eyebrows, and even raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, "Have you figured out what to do?" ”

Chen Tongxin shook his head and tried his best to calm down: "Weichen feels that he should immediately send someone to chase him when this county has not escaped." ”

After speaking, he raised his eyes to test Lu Li's meaning, "Grandpa Guo thinks it's good to deal with it like this?" ”

"Well, now that you know what to do, let's go quickly. By the way, there are also those two thieves, if they are not found in the prison or in the city, they also draw portraits by the way, and send a team to find them. Lu Li waved his hand and returned to his cold appearance.

Chen Tong, who was right, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly bowed over, "Yes, Weichen will supervise it." ”

With the prefect, there was nothing else to do in the county office, and Lu Li was still thinking about the affairs of the Su family, so after a few words, he hurried to Su Xiaoling's shop on horseback, preparing to meet Xiaoman.

Chen Tong, who bent down to see Lu Li off in place, stood for a long time, until he heard the sound of the horse's hooves getting farther and farther away, he dared to get up and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his face.

"Lord Chen, is this grandfather so difficult to deal with?" A soldier stepped forward, looked at the small black dot in the distance, and asked curiously.

Chen Tong, whom he had seen, had always been extremely calm, whether he was facing a shrew in the market or a loyal minister of the court, and he had solved the matter between talking and laughing, and had never shown such a side, so this soldier would ask such a question.

Chen Tong waved his hand, sighed and shook his head, and turned around and left without saying anything.

The soldier looked up again in the direction Lu Li had left, until he couldn't see anything, then he shook his head in the same way as Chen Tong, turned around and trotted to find Chen Tong.

Lu Li rode to Xiaoling's shop, and as soon as he got off the horse, he met the Su family sisters who came out of the house behind.

"Lu Li!" Xiao Man walked over quickly and asked excitedly: "How is the matter handled by the county government, have the two thieves been caught?" And that county, how did you deal with it after the prefect went? ”

The man sighed when he heard this, and tied his horse to a tree on the side of the street, "The county man has run away, and those two thieves don't know where they went." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Man and Xiao Ling exclaimed in unison, their eyes widened.

Seeing this, Lu Li lowered his eyes and didn't speak.

On the road from the county government to Xiaoling's shop, Lu Li kept thinking that it was not a big deal for the county to run away, mainly because of the two thieves. If they are afraid and frightened, it is fine to pack up their packages and leave overnight, but if they have a grudge in their hearts and come to the door to take revenge regardless of life and death, then ......

I am not afraid of martial arts, Xiaoman is not the same thing to be with him day and night, but Su Xiaoling lives alone at the back of the store, Su Qi and Zhang Xiuqin are old, in case those two thieves come to the door, wouldn't they even have the ability to fight back?

"Xiaoman, I'm afraid we'll have to stay here for a while longer." Saying that, Lu Li looked at Su Xiaoling again, very solemn, "Don't open a store during this time, go back to Bishui Village or your mother-in-law's house to live, you must be more careful." ”

At this time, Su Xiaoling didn't dare to do much, and she nodded again and again for Lu Li's arrangement, "Okay, I know." ”

The three of them rested for a moment in the shade under the tree, and then hurried home.

Back at Su's house, without waiting for Zhang Xiuqin and Su Xiaoling to say anything, Lu Li took the lead in telling the county and the thieves about the escape, and at the end, he said solemnly: "We must be vigilant during this time to prevent those two thieves from retaliating." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Xiuqin and Su Qi, "Before we catch the thief, Xiaoman and I have to live in your house, otherwise I really don't feel at ease." ”

"What about me?" Under the influence of this atmosphere, Xiao Ling also began to panic, her voice trembled a little, "My man hasn't come back yet, if I go back to my mother-in-law's house to live, what if the two thieves come to the door?" ”

Zhang Xiuqin couldn't take care of the previous matter, she looked at Lu Li in fear, "Otherwise, let Xiaoling live at home for a while first?" Otherwise, she is no match for those two men, and if something happens, I ...... Lu Li, this matter was provoked by you, you have to think of a way quickly! ”
