"Don't worry, I'm afraid of the Demon Gate. By the way, what is the name of that high-grade demon gate master who destroyed the mountain? ”

Zhou Chunfeng hesitated for a moment and said, "Elder of the Demon Mountain, the new Sanpin Partial Servant of the Criminal Department, Fu Jianqi, the junior brother of the head of the Demon Mountain Chapter. ”

"Looks like I've heard of this name somewhere." Li Qingxian frowned and thought.

"The disaster of Lucheng is related to him, when Depu turned into a land of death, he used to appear there. A body of magic is unpredictable, don't provoke this kind of person. Zhou Chunfeng said.

"No wonder, it turns out that Liu Shida said this person. Uncle Zhou, don't worry, I'm afraid of death, and I won't provoke anyone I can't afford to mess with. Li Qingxian smiled.

"The notes you put on the holy scriptures in the closet are good." Zhou Chunfeng looked at Li Qingxian deeply.

"Every word is heartfelt, every sentence is liver and gallbladder." Li Qingxian said calmly.

"How do you feel about this incident?" Zhou Chunfeng asked.

Li Qingxian listened, and he was familiar with the elders who took the school examination, carefully recalled what happened, sighed for a long time, and said: "Life is like chess, you must not be greedy for victory." ”

"These are Zhao Shoufu's words."

"Huh? Zhao Yishan also said? ”

Zhou Chunfeng nodded, and said, "What else?" ”

"At first, the cancer will only hurt the distant island state, then it may only hurt the distant state capital, and then it may only hurt the town of Depu near the Shendu, and now, it will hurt many people around me, and when I can see it, the tumor may touch the skin and then enter the bones." Li Qing said leisurely.

"You say that human life is better than military exploits?" Zhou Chunfeng asked.

"Of course. There is no merit this time, and you can fight next time, but if the person is gone, it will be gone forever. The death of a person does not seem to be important, but the death of a group of people will also kill the generations they may have. Among their descendants, there may be people who can make more great achievements and save more human races, but they will never appear in this world because of the military exploits of a few people. ”

"Yes, there are many things, as long as you take your time, you can have it, but it's a matter of more or less. But if the person is gone, there is really no ......" Zhou Chunfeng looked out the window.

The sky is blue, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

"What if you have a tumor and a teammate, and you can only keep one?" Zhou Chunfeng asked.

Li Qingxian shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, and I can't answer it." However, perhaps people like you and Zhao Yishan can answer. Even if your generation can't solve it, as long as generation after generation survives, it will definitely be solved. The premise is to live. ”

Zhou Chunfeng sighed, and after a long time, he said, "Let's rest for a few days first, don't show your wealth these days." But...... You get busy first. ”

"I understand, goodbye Uncle Zhou."

Li Qingxian got up, picked up the pastries on the table, and then gave Zhou Hate a look.

Li Qingxian walked out of the Spring Breeze House and sat in the pavilion not far away.

After a long while, Zhou Hate came over.

"Uncle Zhou, are you in trouble?"

"Nope."

"Then why did you come so late?"

"I wonder what you mean by giving me a look." Zhou Ha said expressionlessly.

Li Qingxian couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Uncle Zhou wanted to speak just now, is there something wrong?" ”

Zhou Ha frowned and said: "I think about it, first of all, the victims of the Patrol Division are a big deal, and the placement of those family members and future corpses is also a problem. And when we were not in Shendu, Lord Zhou was angry because of your trouble, and accused the Criminal Department of the poor management in front of him in the Jinluan Palace, so angry that the Shangshu of the Criminal Department almost made a move. And then there's ......"

Zhou Hate glanced around, and secretly said: "My lord thinks that it is not a good thing for the emperor to send the inner factory to serve as a supervisor everywhere. Once the supervisors of the inner factory are all over the ministries, what will the officials do in the future? The eunuch said that he did not interfere in politics and only supervised, and the emperor said that he would always be sage, but as long as he was a human being, there would be problems. ”

Li Qingxian nodded lightly.

Zhou Ha thought for a while before he said, "By the way, the patrol department is short of money." ”

"What's going on?" Li Qingxian asked.

"The expansion of the patrol and capture division, the soldiers, horses, food, grass and weapons required are four or five times that of the original Shendu Division, and some of them are allocated from above, but the problem is that even if the emperor makes a holy decree, all departments will shirk and delay, you should understand this." Zhou hated and said.

"I understand this, the county official might as well be in charge now." Li Qing said leisurely.

"They can only allocate money in batches, especially the money of the household department, not because they don't want to give it, but because the household department is really short of money in the near future. There was no way, Lord Zhou had to borrow it from the night guard finance department, the guard envoy never offended people, and agreed, but the finance secretary Zheng Wei Yong promised, and sent five hundred taels of silver over yesterday, I almost beat him when I heard it, what is this money enough for? ”

Li Qingxian remembered Mrs. Wei's bedroom night singing that night, and said, "I guess I offended Wei Yong ruthlessly." Our patrol department, can't we ask the inner factory for money? When we can't work hard, we go, and we won't give any money. ”

Zhou Hate shook his head and said: "The inner factory belongs to the inner court, and all expenditures are allocated by the inner treasury government. Those eunuchs in the inner factory have their eyes above the top, why are they polite when they see you? You can pull money into the inner factory. Take out the money of the inner court to support foreign officials, the emperor is willing to do it, and the ministers will oppose it, it is impossible. ”

"I think there's something going on here." Li Qingxian frowned.

Zhou Hate glanced at Li Qingxian in surprise, and said: "You have a good brain, I didn't see it at the time, but Lord Zhou said that it was some officials of the imperial court who used this method to resist the expansion of the inner factory and the patrol department, which is also one of the reasons why Wei Yong dared to deal with it." ”

Li Qingxian nodded and said, "That's reasonable." It seems that the monopoly of power in the internal factory, and the establishment of the patrol and arrest department still triggered a backlash. ”

Zhou Hate sighed and said: "The original money of the Patrol Division was used to expand the soldiers and horses, and there were not many of them, but now that so many people have died, the pension has become a big gap." Our night guard's pension is already a lot, it used to be paid by the treasurer, and it is rare to die so much at one time, but now we pay it ourselves, how can we afford it. ”

"Wouldn't it be better to just use the money I got from me...... Uh, no. Li Qingxian quickly realized the problem halfway through speaking.

"What, you still want to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver on the night guard to buy people's hearts?" Zhou hated and said.

Li Qingxian shook his head, the number of night guards who died in the battle in the village was very small before, and it was normal for him to send some money. But this time the scale is so large, but it can't be handled with private money, every money must be clean, otherwise it will be a clear handle.

Zhou hated and said: "Lord Zhou said, it's okay to delay the pension itself, the problem is that there are too many people who died this time, once the Demon Gate Criminal Department holds a grudge, sends someone to provoke, makes trouble, and shocks Shengshou, what do you say about the consequences?" ”

When Li Qingxian heard this, he sighed and said, "This officialdom is really a big hole step by step." ”

"Who knows how many doorways are hidden in this that even Lord Zhou can't see clearly? There are only a few days left until the birthday of the Holy One, do you think he can sleep? Zhou said hatefully.

"There's really no way to transfer my money to the Patrol Division? Temporary borrowing is not possible? Li Qingxian asked.

Zhou Hate shook his head and said: "How many pairs of eyes are staring at here now, at this time, there is no mistake at all." Lord Zhou doesn't let you show your wealth, because he is afraid that you will mess around. ”
