Chapter 48: Familiar Names

"The villain is difficult, you drank too much back then, and when you turned around, you found a group of ruffians to make trouble, and lost hundreds of taels to the government."

Zhu Dacheng's thin figure stood by the door, looking at Li Mengzhou's back as he scolded and left.

Lin Lan's face was red: "Uncle, it's all in the past." ”

"Haha." Zhu Dacheng raised his hand and put it on his small head: "The virtuous nephew has really grown up." ”

Zhu Dacheng turned around and sighed again: "It's a pity that the virtuous nephew did the wrong thing." ”

Lin Lan no longer thought about the amnesty at this moment: "Uncle, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven." ”

The only way to save yourself from beheading is to do it, not how much money you make.

"Uncle, how much copper will it cost to be a yamen?"

Zhu Dacheng waved his hand: "What copper coins do those dogs want, most of them are idle people." ”

"The virtuous nephew wants to catch fast, and he doesn't even need to give a copper plate."

Lin Lan was quite surprised: "I am a person of amnesty, and I am a prisoner who has been ordered to be registered, which is more difficult than ordinary people." ”

Zhu Dacheng smiled: "I read the text of the amnesty that day, the new emperor's grace, the amnesty of prisoners this year is the same as the common people." The new emperor even encouraged the prisoners to come out and do things, showing the atmosphere of the new dynasty. ”

Lin Lan still took out ten yuan and went to the county office.

When passing through the backyard of the mansion, Lin found that the burned houses had no new soil and were unattended.

The little guy who led the way said: "Where is there silver in the yamen to repair, and the people of Yunzhou City will donate it." ”

Coming to the backyard, Chen Yuan, who was wearing a Confucian robe, was playing against a raunchy gray-robed old man.

The gray-robed old man had a fork of wood stuck diagonally on his head, weeds in his hair, his dark legs were cocked, and his toes hooked the black cloth shoes that were about to fall.

"Wang Lao lost, haha." Chen Yuan let go, and the white chess pieces in his hand fell into the chess jar with a bang.

The gray-robed old man arched his hand: "Master Chen's chess skills are superb, admire." ”

Chen Yuanfu sighed: "Hey, playing chess is Xiaoyi, and you can't get to the hall of elegance." is not like Mr. Wang, but a celebrity in the northern capital. ”

The gray-robed old man waved his hand: "Master Chen, don't be humble, the gentleman has six arts and five skills, etiquette and music, and the number of imperial books, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and swords, all of which are indispensable." Where is Xiaoyi, who is not elegant. ”

Chen Yuan couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and he had a fluttering feeling.

Lin Lan tilted his head and glanced at the chessboard, he had also played a game about Go, even if it was only three dans.

is like this, and it can also be seen that Chen Yuan is obviously a stinky chess basket, and he can play corner chess.

The old man in gray is letting.

Chen Yuan drank tea with a cup: "Elder Wang, please, I will stay in Yunzhou for a few more days on this trip." ”

The gray-robed old man was humble and polite: "Lord Chen said that he laughed, the contemptible people were relegated to Yunzhou, and even if they wanted to, they couldn't leave." ”

"It's really a pity that Master Chen is talented, the dragon meets shallow water, and the tiger falls in Pingyang, how can such a big talent live in a small city in Yunzhou?"

The more the gray-robed old man said, the more fluttering Chen Yuan became, and he sighed: "Alas, the court is not different in employing people, so don't say it." ”

The two talked for a long time, and Chen Yuancai put his eyes on Lin Yuan, thinking that this person took the letter from the prince and sent it, and it seemed that he didn't want to owe the prince a favor, but in fact, he transferred his favor with the prince to him.

This favor pressed on Chen Yuan's heart, and he was always a little uncomfortable: "What's the matter with you?" ”

Lin Mian's expression was indifferent, and he handed over the package containing copper coins: "My lord, I heard that the house in the backyard of the government was burned, and the boy is a citizen of Yunzhou, so he should contribute to the reconstruction of the government." ”

"There are ten times here, which is a little bit of the kid's heart."

The gray-robed old man glanced at Lin Lan with an interesting expression, and his expression was interesting.

Chen Yuan opened the burden and found that the copper coins worn by the hemp rope were full of ten times: "Lin Gongzi, sit." ”

After Lin Lan took a seat, the little servant brought tea.

Sit down and you're a guest!

Chen Yuan's hand was on the package, and he sighed: "If the people in the world are like Lin Gongzi, then why should my Wu Dynasty be afraid of Beimang, and where will there be grass wanderers in my Yunzhou City." ”

Lin Lan fell asleep and continued to say Chen Yuan's words: "Lord Chen, I heard that there is a shortage of helpers in the house, and the kid is a person who doesn't have much work, so he wants to do something for the people of Yunzhou, I don't know if there is a vacancy in the house." ”

Building a house is fake, but begging officials is real.

Chen Yuan had a happy look on his face: "Really? Lin Gongzi is too modest, the new emperor encourages people with amnesty to do things, and you are no different from others. ”

Chen Yuan's words are true, in the recent report from the palace, there is a prisoner in the Northern Capital who has become a minor official of the Northern Capital Inspection Division.

Within half a month, the new emperor was overjoyed to solve major cases, and wrote his merits in the newspaper and sent them to the entire territory of the Wu Dynasty.

The gray-robed old man interjected with a smile: "This little brother said that his time is short, I don't know what to do?" ”

Chen Yuan talked about the amnesty of the new emperor, and the gray-robed old man understood.

"There are prisoners who continue to make trouble, those who stay at home and mediocre, and those who can be officials and businessmen, after all, they are few, I don't know why Lin Gongzi came to the government to sit as a small official."

Only then did Lin Yan look at the gray-robed old man, his face was thin and weak, the cheekbones on both sides were as prominent as longevity peaches, and his eyes were shrewd but not cunning.

Two strands of fairy beard hang down from the temples, although the hair is obliquely inserted with wooden branches and not hostas, but there is a kind of detachment and freedom.

A person's family background can be pretended, but a person's temperament cannot be pretended.

The temperament of an old man is not like that of a person who can only flatter and pat himself on the back.

"Elder Wang, people like Lin Gongzi can worry about the country, which is naturally a blessing for my Wu Dynasty."

"Young Master Lin, in the future, you will be the head catcher of the father of the prefect of Yunzhou."

Hearing the two words of catching the head, Lin Lan thought that he had misheard, and plucked out his ears: "Lord Chen, what are you talking about?" ”

Chen Yuan had a wry smile on his face: "I want to talk about the two Niu Ben brothers, this official never thought that the relationship between these two people in the government was complicated, and the government service was basically related to the two of them." ”

"When the official went out of the city to inspect, these people dared to release Niu Er and Niu Ben, and a group of people robbed the big households in Yunzhou Mansion and went to the Sheep Horn Mountain outside the city to fall into the grass for the cowards."

Chen Yuan also knew that this matter was too much: "Young Master Lin, just take this matter as a joke." ”

Lin Lan was overjoyed, and lowered his body very low: "Lord Chen, I am willing to do this shop." ”

"Lin Gongzi, have you thought clearly, there is no one available in the government except for the little guy, it is said to be a head catcher, but in fact, it is only you."

The news that the two Niu Ben brothers fell into the grass has not yet come out, and once it is known by the people of Yunzhou City, I am afraid that no one will dare to come to the government on an errand.

Lin Lan nodded solemnly: "Lord Chen, I am willing." ”

The gray-robed old man put down his dark thin legs and put on his cloth shoes again: "I heard that you, the master of the yamen, also ran away, and the old man had no other place to go in Yunzhou, so he stayed here." ”

The gray-robed old man deliberately bowed his hand towards Lin Lan: "Lin Gongzi has a far-sighted vision, and the old man is ashamed of himself." ”

Lin Lan sneered, he wanted to live, if he wanted to stay alive, he had to work hard first.

The gray-robed old man was very interested in Lin Lan, and took the initiative to introduce himself: "Old man Wang Shouren, don't know the life of the son? ”
