For the time being, let's not mention how high-spirited Liu Qing was after he took charge of the Governor's Mansion, nor how the officials in the county scolded him. However, two or three days later, Zhou Tai, Chen Wu and others, who had just taken office, came one after another, and they all came to Liu Qing to ask for a glass of wine to drink, so Liu Qing immediately held a banquet at home.

Without waiting for Liu Qing's orders, everyone had already knelt down and sat down according to their positions and relationships. Liu Qing made some money selling sugar, and a few days ago he was promoted to county lieutenant, but it was not suitable to live in the old broken yard again, so he changed to a new yard, and at this time the candles in the courtyard were lit, but it was warm and shining. Song Qian brought the medicinal wine brewed by his old father, saying that drinking it could nourish qi and replenish yang, but Liu Qing didn't care, and drank several times in succession.

A few people drank to the fullest, Song Qian and Chen Wu drew their swords and danced to help the fun, and Zhou Tai also rarely went wild, and he used an iron sword to knock on the table for dance music. The moonlight was blurry, Liu Qing sat in the hall and looked at the crescent moon, quietly wandering thousands of miles away.

After three rounds of drinking, a few people also had fun. On the seat, Zhou Tai, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but say: "This Cheng Kang and Cheng Qi were finally eliminated, if it weren't for Liu Jun's sudden appearance to design a pit for the camp step by step, I couldn't help but kill the two." It can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people, who knows that when he meets Liu Jun, he can still be an official in the county. ”

Chen Wu couldn't help frowning and said: "That's true, these two people have been in trouble in the township for many years, and the villagers are also people, and someone can't help but turn against his mother." The villagers usually attach the most importance to fairness and righteousness, and after a long time, I am afraid that if they don't use the county government, they will push themselves into the pit. ”

Song Qian is Liu Qing's diehard loyalist, and said unconvinced: "The two of them have been rampant for many years, Cheng Qi has a deep foundation, and I haven't seen any disasters, if it weren't for Liu Jun, how many years would these two have to show off their might?" ”

When Jia Hua heard this, he slapped the table and shouted: "No matter what, it will be defeated in the hands of a few of us, come, everyone, drink this cup!" ”

After these few people were idle, there were a few wines, and it was very lively for a while, the table was already swept away, and a few people toasted, Liu Qing sat on the top, looked at a few people with a smile, and also drank a full glass.

Early in the morning of the second day, with a splitting headache, Liu Qing patted his head, only to say that he drank too much yesterday and should pay attention in the future. Suddenly, I only felt that there was someone missing, and the figure of the reed stick suddenly appeared in my mind. The last time Jia Hua mentioned this matter, he only cared about fighting with the Cheng family's uncle and nephew, and left this matter behind, pinching his fingers and calculating that it was a long time since then.

In the past few days, there have been a lot of gifts from the officials, and Liu Qing immediately picked a few and went to Liu An's house in Nan'an Township.

It was still early, Liu An's family had not yet gone out to farm, and when Liu Qing arrived, he saw Liu An and Liu Wenmin at a glance. Several members of Liu An's family are farming on weekdays, and the family conditions are good, and there is porridge to drink in the morning.

"Uncle, little brother." Liu Qing walked to the table and greeted him with a smile. Hearing Jia Hua say that this uncle seemed to have some opinions about himself, Liu Qing also had a headache, and he couldn't bear to hurt Liu An's heart, after all, this kid helped a lot when he first came.

Liu Wenmin drank the porridge with a "zizi" sound, his eyes narrowed slightly, he swallowed very slowly, and seemed to enjoy the 'delicacy' in front of him very much, seeing Liu Qing coming to say hello, he looked up and down, but did not speak, just looked disgusted, and drank the porridge slowly.

"Huh? Isn't this Liu Qing? Why, early in the morning, you can't afford to eat, and you come to my house to ask for it? After a while, Liu Wenmin put down the bowl and said disdainfully.

"Daddy." Liu An seemed to be begging his father not to speak too much.

"When is the time for you to speak! If you still have filial piety, hurry to the plough! His father shouted. Liu An had no choice but to put down the half bowl of unfinished grain residue in his hand, picked up the plow and went to the field. But he hadn't gone far, hadn't seen his cousin in a while, and he wanted to hear what they had to say in the house.

Liu Qing smiled, didn't care, and sat in Liu An's seat just now and put down the gift. said lightly: "I just haven't seen my little brother for a few days, and I miss it a little, so I came, and I also visited my uncle and aunt by the way." ”

Liu Wenmin's wife saw that Liu Qing had brought a gift, so she stood up instantly, opened the gift in front of Liu Qing, looked at the contents and saw that the contents were worth a lot of money, and said tentatively with a smile: "Oops! Virtuous nephew, this gift is so expensive, your family has always been poor, where did you get so much money? ”

Liu Wenmin snorted coldly and said, "Don't look at who he can rob with his body?" In my opinion, it wasn't stolen to decorate your face. Even if you really have good luck, engage in some bullshit and sugar, earn a little baht, and offend Lord You and Lord County, you won't live long! ”

It seems that the news has not yet reached Nan'an, at least not to Liu An's house, Liu Qing pretended to be serious and said: "No! It was given to me by a few officials in the county, and I still have a lot of piled up at home, so I took it to my uncle and aunt. ”

Liu Wenmin immediately looked up to the sky and laughed, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes, and said while laughing: "I'm afraid that you don't have a heartless disease, go home as soon as possible, don't go crazy in my house." Hahahaha. Also the officer, why don't you say that Lord Cheng of the county was imprisoned by you, and Lord You was killed by you, and now the county is under your control? Hahahaha. Laugh at me! ”

Liu Qing also smiled and said, "Uncle, how do you know so clearly? ”

Liu Wenmin usually boasts of being the first wise man in Nan'an Township, but at this time, he frowned, and smashed the bowl in his hand on the table with a 'snap', and said with a smile: "It's okay!" The gifts will also be taken away, and if they don't touch your belongings, they won't reach our family in the future. ”

Liu Qing didn't want to use any means, so he couldn't help but shake his head. When he was about to leave, it was Jin Cao Peng, who had just joined him yesterday, who came to collect taxes with two officials.

When he saw Liu Qing, he was shocked and said, "Meet the county lieutenant." Why are you here, isn't it to assess whether we are on a timely errand? ”

"County ...... County lieutenant? My lord? Liu Wenmin and his wife stared at the face of the Peng official, and they were stunned for a moment, and after a few moments, they gasped a few breaths of cold air, dazed, like two clay wood carving people.

He actually became a county lieutenant? Just him? Isn't that Cao Peng dazzled and looked at the wrong person? But in addition to his husband and wife, there is only Liu Qing left in this house.

"No, I'm just here to see my relatives, and now that I've finished reading it, hehe, people don't want to recognize me." At this time, Liu Qing's answer was as bright and terrifying as the county ding's knife and axe in his ears. Thinking of what he had just said, he shuddered.

Liu Qing walked away step by step in the incredible eyes of the husband and wife.
