Chapter Ninety-One: Recruiting Sand Bandits

That night, after Liu Heli was violently beaten by her, he was thrown into prison, and the people of the King of Qi took him away, and the people who came only said that she should handle the affairs of the county, many officials, and some minor officials were Zhao Quanyun's subordinates, and there were some old cases, which were authorized by the Seventeenth King to let her handle them with full authority.

It wasn't until the new county magistrate took office the day before yesterday that she had time to get out, oh my God, she regretted collecting medicinal herbs for half a year.

The people around her were very enthusiastic, which made her a little embarrassed.

"Oh, I'm really grateful to Gongzi Qin, except for this corrupt official, this is the biggest happy event in Qingying County in the past fifteen years." It was the old man who mixed tea and ate in the tea shed at the gate of the city every day, and he specially dressed up today and sent them out of the city.

Mo Lan remembers that when she was looking through the dossier, it was recorded that his son had been exiled in the early years, and this old man had no one to take care of, and he often went to eat mixed every day, and often did not have enough to eat.

This can't be done, there are many families who have been persecuted by Zhao Quanyun over the years, some have no children, and some have no parents.

Thinking about it, she walked towards Liu Yuanwai: "Liu Yuanwai, there is something to ask for below." ”

Liu Yuanwai was supported by his two daughters, and said with difficulty: "Gongzi Qin is polite, if there is anything I can help with, I will do my best!" ”

Mo Lan scratched her head a little embarrassed: "Thank you Liu Yuanwai, I see that there are many lonely and helpless people in Qingying County, and I would like to ask Liu Yuanwai to set up an association to take care of the elderly and children under Zhao Quanyun's subordinates, you can rest assured, at present, you are only responsible for this matter, and there will be people from the Shen family to take over in the future, and the merchants also ask you to visit more." ”

"Qin Gongzi, this is not difficult, if you don't say it, I have already had this intention, after this experience, old decay can be regarded as an epiphany, too much money will only lead to endless greed. But this Shen family is not..."Discord with your family, Liu Yuanwai naturally didn't dare to say this.

Mo Lan arched his hand and bent down and said: "Liu Yuanwai is righteous, Xiaosheng is actually from the Chu family, and his father is Chu Linghong. ”

Until Mo Lan left, Liu Yuanwai was still a little stunned.

The group continued to walk south for a month, and the customs and architectural structures along the way became more and more different.

"This Jiangnan is beautiful, miss, why don't we stay in this Liushan Prefecture for a few days, we've been on the road for a month." Ai Xiang looked at the lively scene outside and couldn't wait to go out to play.

met Gong Yi halfway, Mo Lan asked him if he wanted to go together, and people said that he was very busy and had no time.

However, after she told Gong Yi about the establishment of associations in each county, it didn't take long for the Tingwei Mansion to order the establishment of red-chip associations in each prefecture and county, which were managed by the provincial prefects and assisted by the Inspectorate, and the post of chief secretary was set up under the household department, responsible for the local household registration management and grain allocation.

There are inspectors who register the merchants participating in the association, reduce or exempt certain taxes, and regularly inspect whether there are people in need of assistance.

Mo Lan was secretly proud, fortunately, she grew up under the excellent policies of the motherland.

After a month's journey, all four of them were a little tired.

"Well, after such a long journey, it's time to rest, find an inn, let's rest." As soon as Mo Lan got out of the carriage and was about to leave, she saw a familiar figure.

The man was dressed in white with a fluttering white crown, a jade crown and his hair tied up, holding a pile of account books in his hand, shaking his head frequently, and saying something to the innkeeper.

Mo Lan walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder with a fan, "My son came here to eat and drink, I don't know if Master Shen will give him an account!" ”

Shen Shiyuan heard the familiar voice and turned his head in some surprise.

"Yuan Yuan, why are you here?" There was a hint of tremor in his voice, even excitement.

Maybe Shen Shiyuan was too elegant, Mo Lan was a little embarrassed to open the fan to cover his face and said, "Cough, this son came out to practice." ”

Shen Shiyuan rubbed her head: "Since Gongzi Chu is here to appreciate his face, he must let you eat and drink well." ”

Mo Lan blushed a little, she couldn't resist this kind of elegant son.

Although Shen Shiyuan was born as a businessman, he didn't have any copper smell on his body, and his own cultivation was not low, so he would always spoil her.

Shen Shiyuan took him to the teahouse to listen to the book, and the music was singing downstairs, but she couldn't understand it.

"Brother Shen, why did you come here at this time?"

Shen Shiyuan took out a box from his arms and put it in front of her: "It's the end of the year, I'll reconcile, what about you?" Sneak out to play? ”

Mo Lan opened the box, and inside was a jade hairpin that had always been delicate, carved into the shape of a lotus flower. Put away the hairpin and hand it to Ai Xiang on the side: "Go play, Brother Shen will send me back in a while." ”

"I got into a big accident and was punished by my father for going out to practice."

Shen Shiyuan stroked the teacup and said with a smile: "Well, it is true that only you can cause great trouble." ”

Mo Lan looked at him angrily, I didn't see that you were handsome, I would have beaten you.

This guy's fingers are so beautiful, the joints are distinct, and they are very slender, so I want to touch them.

"Phew!"

A screen was moved in the lobby downstairs, and an old man walked out of the back hall, and he couldn't see what he looked like.

"Anyway, our Zhizhou Gan Rui of Liushan Prefecture has married five ladies before and after, and he will marry a sixth lady in the near future, you are objective and listen to me carefully."

It turned out that Gan Rui's previous wives had died, and later asked the fortune teller to come and see the eight characters, which turned out to be too prosperous, and ordinary women married him without this blessing, and they had to be noble women.

The previous wives were either merchant women or lowly officials in the family. Two months ago, when the assassin of Heding Mansion heard about this, he asked his daughter-in-law to marry him.

Some of the people in the entire state capital silently ridiculed, and some people envied him for entering the high gate.

Only he is himself, he is not shocked, he is diligent every day, and he is also kind and polite to the people.

"By the way, this teahouse belongs to yours, right?" Mo Lan put down the teacup and rubbed her little hands, not knowing what bad idea she had.

Shen Shiyuan leaned on the railing, his hand propped his chin and looked at her: "What?" Got an idea? ”

Mo Lan swallowed her saliva, my mother, stunning!

I almost forgot to get down to business: "I have some stories here, I promise you haven't heard them, I can dictate the stories to you, make money, let's five or five points." ”

"Yuan Yuan will also tell stories, I'll listen to one first, and I'll promise you if it's good."

Mo Lan wiped her saliva and first told some small stories, "The Peacock Flies Southeast", "Du Shi Niang's Angry Sinking Treasure Chest", and a small part of "Strange Tales from Liaozhai".

Shen Shiyuan was a little fascinated when he heard this, but Mo Lan stopped when he was most fascinated.

"Well, okay, I have a lot of stories that I can tell hundreds of times." Fortunately, when I was studying, I read extracurricular books carefully, and I was not idle in college.

Shen Shiyuan was a little surprised, "Where did Yuan Yuan hear about this?" ”

"I heard what the immortals said in my dreams." Mo Lan made up a lie, and looked at him without blushing or panting.

"Okay, I promise you, but the Chu Mansion should not be short of money, didn't you cause some trouble, and you want to fill it with money?" Lord Chu is spoiled by her, why do you want money?

Mo Lan held her chin and looked melancholy: "Alas~ You don't understand, my father is an honest official on weekdays, and there are few shops under my mother's name, so I am afraid that I will not have a decent dowry if I marry in the future." ”

Shen Shiyuan suddenly tensed up, yes, she has a marriage contract with the fifth prince, and he still doesn't want to think about those things that shouldn't be considered.

Mo Lan said this, but she was muttering in her heart, who would think that there is a lot of money, and she is not a fool.

The literati of 5,000 years in China, your works, hehe, bring them!

Later, Shen Shiyuan took her to eat a lot of snacks, and when she returned to the inn, she couldn't eat.

After playing for a few days, just as Mo Lan was about to say goodbye, Shen Shiyuan received an invitation from Gan Ruizhi.

Out of curiosity, Mo Lan planned to follow him to meet the big red man.

Mo Lan sat in the carriage of the Shen family and followed Shen Shiyuan to the Zhizhou Mansion, and as soon as she got off the carriage, she knew what a fox and a fake tiger were.

Shen Shiyuan was a guest, and even brought her to receive the best reception.

It is not taboo for men and women to sit at the same table in this world banquet, so when Mo Lan sat next to Shen Shiyuan, some young ladies of the family were eager to stare at her.

The auspicious time has not yet arrived, and it is already full of friends. Suddenly, firecrackers crackled outside, and the newcomer came.

That Gan Ruizhi is about thirty years old, and at this moment it is the spring breeze on his face, holding the red silk, and walking forward step by step with the bride.

However, the two above the high hall didn't look very happy, and the smiles on their faces were squeezed out.

Maybe this son has been married too many times and is already tired.

However, during the banquet, Mo Lan heard more gossip.

These people can't keep their mouths idle while eating.

It is said that Gan Rui's wife married one after another, and she either died or disappeared.

Now he is also married to the daughter of the assassin, maybe the assassin sent his daughter to suppress him.

Later, the more he talked about it, the more outrageous it became, until Gan Ruizhi came over to toast, and the man kept mocking in his mouth.

Gan Ruizhi didn't care, raised his glass and looked around, drank it all and went to another table.

There are always these people in this world, who hate others and laugh at others.

"That person is Gan Zhizhou's cousin, Gan Daren was originally a son of a poor family, and he has achieved today's achievements by relying on his own efforts." Shen Shiyuan suddenly leaned over.

Mo Lan blushed a little uncomfortably, but fortunately she drank a lot of wine, and no one could see it.

"Why are you talking to me about this all of a sudden?"

Shen Shiyuan leaned into her ear and said, "Because your ears are going to be born to that person's mouth." After saying that, there was a low chuckle, and the breath sprayed on her neck, making her stand up suddenly.

"Ahem, I'm going to sober up."

Mo Lan wandered around the Zhizhou Mansion, and heard that the Gan family's mansion had been uninhabited before, until Gan Rui took office, and this mansion was assigned to him.

It seems that some sect stayed, Gan Ruizhi is an honest official, and he only chose a few courtyards to live in after painting, and other places are still the same.

Walking to a courtyard, the lights were bright, and the sound of smashing dishes came from inside: "Miss Ben doesn't eat this, and when I'm hungry, I'll send me a few pastries a day." ”

Oh, the bride is so hungry that she gets angry, too, if it's her, if she is hungry for a day, her temper will be bad.

This place should not stay for a long time, slip away.
