Chapter Ninety-Seven: Reaching Cooperation
The officials standing on both sides slandered in their hearts, "I didn't know who was going to play the official just now, but now it's good?" Blame us. ”
The officials hurriedly stepped forward, and after a period of scramble, they took off the shackles on Su Qi'an and the three of them.
Zhou Qi County Commander waved his hand, and the officials left one after another, and Tie Niu and Shui Sheng, who were standing behind him, also turned around and left.
In the lobby, only Zhou Qi and Su Qi'an remained.
Zhou Qi smiled all over his face, ushered Su Qi'an to the seat, and flattered him, "It is the lack of strict control of this official that caused such a misunderstanding, and I hope that Su Ju has a large number of people, don't blame it." ”
Su Qi'an sat on the upper seat, untouched by Zhou Qi's apology and explanation, and looked indifferent.
This scene made Zhou Qi's heart feel cold, if he came to Lingdong County today, it would be people from other counties.
Zhou Qi was able to do this, he had already given Tianda face, although his status was equivalent to a county order, but after all, he was a reserve official who had not yet been arranged by the imperial court.
When encountering the local county order, both sides want to give face, and they will definitely not think very highly of themselves, and they will not go down the steps.
But on the contrary, the person sitting on the upper seat is not an ordinary person, this Su Qi'an from Lingbei County, he must be talented and talented, resourceful and resourceful, but he is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs.
Who knows what he has experienced in the six months since he disappeared? If you want to say that you are living in waste, Zhou Qi doesn't believe it.
Zhou Qi smiled bitterly and said to Su Qi'an, "Su Juren, I call you an adult, today's incident is not right with the official, it is normal for Su Juren to be angry in his heart, as long as Su Juren can forgive the official, whether he is beaten or scolded, he will be punished." ”
can make a county commander say this, his posture has been very low.
Su Qi'an's indifferent face showed a hint of surprise, and he said, "What did Zhou County Ling say, Su was just passing by Lingdong County and bumped into today's incident, so he made a move, how can he blame Lord Zhou." ”
Zhou Qi nodded again and again, polite on the surface, but in his heart he slandered, "This is also called passing by?" If it weren't for the lowering of the official's posture, I don't know how to end up today. ”
"Anyway, today's incident was opened, and the misunderstanding was opened, and this matter will pass."
"That's right, that's right, it was originally a misunderstanding, and it will be over when you say it." Zhou Qi hurriedly agreed.
Just when Zhou Qi was a little relieved in his heart, suddenly, Su Qi'an's leisurely voice sounded again.
"This matter is in the past, but what I saw in Lingdong today really opened Su's eyes, and the Song family in Lingdong is so rampant? Dare to commit murder on the street, don't even Zhou County Order dare to take care of this matter? ”
Zhou Qi's heart tightened, he had long known the purpose of this Su Qi'an's coming, it was not that simple, he still had to come.
Zhou Qi didn't intend to hide it, sighed, and said directly, "Alas, Mr. Su doesn't know something, the Song family is a real tyrant in Lingdong County, not to mention anything else, just the years of the Song family's existence are several times longer than the official serving as the county commander." ”
"There are countless children and talents, even the number of people who lift them has two fingers, and the Wei family in central Sichuan is even more intimate, with the Wei family behind it, Mr. Su wants to bring down the Song family, and the official still persuades Mr. to take care of this matter, so as not to get into trouble."
"Hehe, what a disaster, since the Zhou County Order has confided his heart, Su Mou also gave the Zhou County Order a bottom, this Lingdong Song family, Su really wants to move."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Qi was really startled, Su Qi'an's boldness, he had heard of it a long time ago, but he didn't expect this photo, Su Qi'an's purpose was so big.
Get rid of the Song family? Isn't this looking for death?
Zhou Qi reacted and hurriedly said, "This official knows that Mr. Su is both civil and military, and if he looks at all counties, anyone will give face, but this is not Lingbei County, if he wants to move the Song family, this official advised Mr. to dispel this idea." ”
"It's not for nothing that the Song family can stand in Lingdong County for sixty or seventy years, but once the Song family is moved, it's not a joke from the officials, and the entire Lingdong County will be in chaos."
Su Qi'an smiled and said, "Big chaos? Whether it's chaos or not, the order of Lingdong County is about to change, just take advantage of this wind and pull it out together, but this matter still has to be ordered by Zhou County, and it can only be fully supported. ”
Zhou Qi was really frightened now, this Lingbei Su Qi'an was not only bold, but also wanted to involve him.
Zhou Qi hurriedly shook his head and refused very decisively, "Mr. wants to move the Song family, the good words of the official have been exhausted, and he can't change the meaning of the gentleman, the official is benevolent and righteous, but if you want the official to support, it is absolutely impossible." ”
"Although the official is confused, he also knows that this matter is fatal, Mr. insists on doing it, it is Mr.'s business, the official will never get involved, the matter has come to this point, Mr. please."
Zhou Qi's attitude was very firm, and after speaking, he even looked like he was going out.
If it weren't for Su Qi'an's identity and strength, Zhou Qi would never be so polite, what should be said and what shouldn't be said has been told that Su Qi'an insists on this, everything has nothing to do with him.
Zhou Qi's resoluteness was expected by Su Qi'an, but he did not mean to leave immediately.
looked at Zhou Qi, was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "What if Su didn't use his identity to ask Lord Zhou, but Earl Dongshan ordered Lord Zhou." ”
Su Qi'an's voice was very soft, but Zhou Qi's face changed instantly, he raised his head violently, and stared at Su Qi'an with a look of disbelief, as if he had misheard.
After a long while, his voice stammered a little, "You... What did the sir say? Sir is the newly canonized Dongshan Bo!"
Su Qi'an didn't say anything, and directly took out a token from his arms, with three big characters written on it, "Dongshan Bo!"
This time, Zhou Qi almost fell off the back of the chair, and after confirming the authenticity of the token, Zhou Qi knelt directly on the ground and said with a nervous look.
"If the lower official offends the earl, I hope that the lord will forgive me."
This adult, Zhou Qi is from the heart, the identity of the earl, in Da Liang is not big, but it is not small.
It is a nobleman who has no fiefdom, military power, or the right to collect taxes, but whose identity is there.
At the level of the county seat, it is impossible to cover the sky with one hand, but at the county level, it is enough to walk sideways.
The status and identity are absolutely overwhelming the county officials.
And the status of the earl of Dongshan has a lot of origins.
These local parents and officials don't know the specific details of the war in Ningzhou, but the only thing they know is that for this Earl of Dongshan, they heard about the prince of the court, but they argued endlessly.
In the end, His Majesty came forward and decided on this identity.
If His Majesty can come forward in person, he will rush this, the gold content of this Earl of Dongshan is far from being comparable to other counts.
Moreover, the identity of Earl Dongshan is very mysterious, and the secrecy work is very good, not to mention them, even if it is the county guard, they don't know the identity of this person.
I only know that after the Battle of Ningzhou on the border, there was an additional Earl of Dongshan who was canonized by His Majesty himself, which invisibly added a touch of mystery.
Zhou Qi never thought that this mysterious Dongshan Uncle would be Su Qi'an.
And to appear in front of him like this at this moment, this feeling makes people feel inexplicably unreal.
But looking back, Su Qi'an disappeared for half a year, which is completely right, but I can think that Su Qi'an, who disappeared for half a year, really went to the most dangerous border battlefield.
didn't die, didn't say anything, and became an earl.
In Zhou Qi's heart, at this time, there were 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping by, but more of them were scolded by the other party.
As the parent official of Lingbei County, he must know Su Qi'an's identity, and it is estimated that he is the only one who knows.
"This is special, I've been a neighbor for more than ten years, and I didn't report this news to him, old man, you're really not a fucking thing."
What Zhou Qi thought in his heart, Su Qi'an naturally didn't know, he looked at Zhou Qi, who was a little trembling, stretched out his hand, helped him up, and said.
"Lord Zhou doesn't have to be so polite, Su is just a fluke, since Lord Zhou already knows Su's identity, then what will the adult do next, don't need me to say anything."
Although Zhou Qi was not as firm as he was just now, he was embarrassed.
Su Qi'an's status as an earl did shock Zhou Qi, but let him deal with the Song family, which is very likely to take his life.
Not to mention that Su Qi'an is an earl, even if it is a marquis, Zhou Qi is afraid that he will not agree happily.
Su Qi'an understood Zhou Qi's concerns, and he said, "The worries of adults, Su is clear, rest assured, to deal with the Song family, it is not to let adults rush to the front, but to give some help at the appropriate time, even if there is any danger, Su guarantees that the adults will never die." ”
"What kind of virtue is the Song family in Lingdong County, I think adults know better than me, adults have been officials in Lingdong County for many years, and they definitely don't want to be manipulated by local wealthy families, if there is an opportunity in front of adults."
"As the saying goes, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, if you want to make a difference, how can you not take risks, whether to send people under the fence for a lifetime, or to fight hard and fight out of the world, adults should consider it."
Zhou Qi's eyes flashed, and what Su Qi'an said was in his heart.
Zhou Qi's flickering gaze flickered, and he stared violently, as if he had made some kind of decision, and gritted his teeth.
"Since the uncle has said so, the lower officials are not ignorant people, and the next everything, the lower officials are all sent by the uncle."
Su Qi'an smiled and said, "Congratulations, my lord, you made the right choice." ”
Zhou Qi nodded, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly asked. "Xiaguan took the liberty to ask the uncle, this Song family doesn't seem to have a grudge with the uncle, even if it is for the county test half a year ago, the uncle should not want to destroy the Song family."
"The county test half a year ago was just a small contradiction, except for the Song family, but they arrested a person, this person has something to do with me, and what he did was a little offensive, so he naturally has to pay the price."
Su Qi'an said this lightly, and he didn't feel any anger in his words.
But it was such a calm voice that made Zhou Qi's back cold.
He sighed a little, it was not good for the Song family to provoke anyone, but he provoked Su Qi'an, and at the same time he was a little lucky, fortunately he didn't have a grudge against Su Qi'an, otherwise...
Zhou Qi has a hunch that the next Lingdong County is about to change.
