Before dawn the next day, Cao Wen took a carriage to Xu's governor Ge County to take office, as for whether his wife sells liquor shops or whether she is a businessman, he doesn't care at all, he just asks, and only thinks about how to be his county magistrate.

Looking at her husband's carriage away, Li Quan felt miserable in her heart, she didn't expect her husband to change his face when he became an official, how honest and obedient he used to be, but now he didn't even say goodbye, just

Li Quan also thought that perhaps her husband was dissatisfied with her adoption of Xiu'er, and she also knew that she was in a bit of a hurry, so she adopted Xiu'er without consulting her husband's opinion.

But. Li Quan looked down at the child who was sleeping sweetly in his arms, looking at her pink little face and long eyelashes, how could he not like such a cute child?

Li Quan sighed, now if she wants to give Xiu'er away again, it is impossible, she can't help but hug her daughter a little tighter, turn around and go back to the room

As soon as dawn and the meeting dispersed, Shangguan Wan'er returned to her official room, and just arrived at the door, she saw Li Zhen standing aside, standing with his hands down, like a guard on the first day of service.

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but be angry and funny, pushed open the door and said to him, "Come in! There are no tigers in this house." ”

Li Zhen followed her into the house, Shangguan Wan'er sat on the seat, looked at him for a long time and said, "I heard that Miss Di is back?"

Li Zhen nodded, and Shangguan Wan'er smiled faintly: "Then you accompany her well, yesterday Qiu Niang said that you refused to come to deliver the report, I was startled, I thought you secretly went to see Princess Taiping, it turned out to be Miss Di, it was a good thing that she came back, what are you afraid of?"

Li Zhen said for a while: "I won't go to see Princess Taiping." ”

"What if she comes to see you?" Shangguan Wan'er looked at him with a smirk.

Li Zhen sighed and said: "People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, how can I betray people like this, I believe that Princess Taiping also understands this, she will not come to me." ”

Shangguan Wan'er had a bright smile on her face, and she said softly: "Don't think that I am an ordinary vulgar woman, I must possess what I get, you are wrong, I am grateful for your life-saving grace, and I also like your loyalty and bravery, but--I know my identity, and I also know what I want, you don't think too much about it in the future, I don't want us to be wary of each other because we get too close." ”

Li Zhen nodded silently, "My subordinates understand!"

"Okay, I won't talk about this matter in the future, let's talk about the Fangzhou report yesterday, what do you think of King Luling?"

At this time, Li Zhen moved a big stone in his heart, and his mind immediately became smart, but he didn't look at the report at all, so how did he mention it.

Li Zhen smiled a little embarrassedly: "Can you show the report to your subordinates again?"

"You-"

Shangguan Wan'er glared at him angrily, then took out the report and slapped it on his hand, "Don't be so absent-minded next time." ”

Li Zhen read the report quickly, he thought about it, read it carefully, and finally said: "Princess Wei is not a fool, she will not be unaware of the consequences of such publicity, even if we don't send someone to monitor, there will be people among those Fangzhou dignitaries who secretly report Luoyang." ”

Shangguan Wan'er fell into deep thought, Li Zhen's words gave her a new revelation, she knew Wei Shi very well, that was an extremely vicious and cunning woman, Li Zhen was right, she could not make such a low-level mistake.

"You mean she did it on purpose?"

Li Zhen nodded, "The subordinates think that she is tempting, she must have gotten some rumors." ”

Shangguan Wan'er also felt that Li Zhen's explanation was reasonable, it must be Li Xian or Wei Shi who got the news and began to move.

At this time, Li Zhen asked puzzledly: "Why do people care about the affairs of King Luling?"

"It's not that I care about King Luling, it's that the Holy Lord mentioned him twice a few days ago, so I became interested and wanted to know what he was doing recently?"

"Does the Holy Lord want to make King Luling the crown prince?"

"I don't know this, the saint is also asking about the king. ”

Shangguan Wan'er didn't mention King Luling, changed the topic, and said with a smile: "You have a lot of things to do recently! You want to participate in the imperial examination, and there is a polo tournament this month, by the way, you also want to increase the number of 100 internal guard warriors, do you have any ideas?"

"The subordinates want to be selected from the martial arts warriors!"

Shangguan Wan'er nodded approvingly, "This idea is very innovative, you can give it a try." ”

Li Zhen asked again: "Didn't the saint ever think of combining the internal guards into one?"

Shangguan Wan'er understood what Li Zhen meant, she walked to the window with her hands in her hand, looked out of the window, and after a long time, she said slowly: "Since Princess Taiping called the internal guards to besiege Mingxiu Villa, the Holy Lord has told me that Princess Taiping does not distinguish between public and private, and is not suitable for the power of internal guards. ”

Shangguan Wan'er looked back at Li Zhen, "If you want to be promoted to the commander of the internal guard, then you have to show your ability to make the saint feel that this position belongs to you, otherwise it is better to maintain the status quo if you remove a deputy commander of the internal guard and come to a new commander of the internal guard." ”

Li Zhen pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand the humble position." ”

Compared with the huge Spring Imperial Examination, the scale of the martial arts is much smaller, and it is much more low-key, with more than 100,000 people participating in the Imperial Examination, while the martial arts are only more than 3,000 people, but this does not mean that the Tang Dynasty is promoting literature and suppressing martial arts, just on the contrary, the Tang Dynasty inherited the martial spirit of the Han Dynasty.

The scale of the martial arts examination is small, on the one hand, the martial arts examination has just been held, far from being as mature and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as the imperial examination, on the other hand, there are restrictions on the number of places themselves, there are only a small number of places in each state, for example, there are only three places in the huge Shazhou, there are no places, and there are certainly not many scholars who come to the capital to participate in the martial arts.

Another important reason is that the martial arts examination does not mean that you can enter the official position, a large number of dùshang, after being admitted to the martial arts, they will generally join the army and fight on the border, which makes many people prohibitive, so there are more than three scholars who come to the capital to participate in the martial arts, there are more people in the military system, more people in the frontier area, and more guards who borrow the gilded martial arts.

It is no secret that Li Zhen is now participating in the martial arts for gilding, which is completely different from his state of mind last year, last year he desperately wanted to fight for a place, in order to get a chance to get ahead, and now, he has been appointed as the deputy commander of the internal guard, which is equivalent to the level of Lang General, even if he is admitted to the martial arts examination now, it will have no impact on his current career.

Therefore, martial arts has faded a lot in Li Zhen's heart, but for Di Yan, martial arts is an opportunity to help Li Zhen get out of the guard system, she has always disapproved of Li Zhen entering the palace as a guard, although the internal guard is actually no longer a guard, but in Di Yan's opinion, the two are almost the same.

"Lao Li, don't you have a letter of recommendation from Wang Xiaojie?

Di Yan wore men's clothes today and transformed into a handsome young man, because she was dissatisfied in her heart, she also changed her name to 'Lao Li'.

The salutation is a barometer of her mood, and Li Zhen has already figured this out, so when Di Yan offered to accompany him to participate in the martial arts, he didn't dare to refuse, lest the eldest lady's temper would make it difficult for him to end up.

"This—" Li Zhen replied vaguely, "Of course the letter has been given, but I don't know if it will have any effect." ”

"Did you really give?" Di Yan looked at him suspiciously.

"Of course I did, what should I keep it for?"

"What does the military department mean, have you considered transferring you to Wang Xiaojie?"

Li Zhen couldn't hold back any longer, raised his head and laughed, Di Yan understood what he was laughing at, his face was slightly red with anger, and he punched him twice in the back, "You guy who doesn't know what to do, I want you to leave the internal guard, and you still laugh at me, you go by yourself! I won't accompany you." ”

Di Yan turned the horse's head and left, Li Zhen hurriedly grabbed the reins of her mount, and said apologetically: "I understand your good intentions, but I can't help myself now, if I don't want to work in the internal guard, then I will be transferred to Qianniuwei, last time I overthrew Xue Huaiyi, the saint wanted to promote me to the middle general of Qianniuwei, and Shangguan Sheren helped me change to a promotion level." ”

"Oh—you're the county viscount now?"

The anger in Di Yan's heart calmed down a little, glanced at him, and asked, "Is it a real seal or a false seal?"

Li Zhen asked puzzledly: "What is the real seal and the false seal, I don't know!"

"Stupid! The real seal is to have an actual food estate, the viscount is a positive five products, and the tax money of five hundred households in the food estate, that is, five hundred households, is given to you, of course, it is not really a household tax, but converted into a fortune, have you ever gotten this money every month?"

Li Zhen scratched his head, "It doesn't seem to be!"

"That's a false seal!" Di Yan glanced at him angrily, "It's just a virtual jue, look at your beauty, Datang doesn't know how many virtual jue, you still treat it as a treasure, if I were you, I'd rather go to Zhonglang General, at least Yongye Tian has a lot more, hey! Have you been assigned to Yongye Tian?"

Li Zhen blinked, he didn't seem to realize this question, and half-rang he was only expecting Ai Ai to ask, "I also have Yongye Field?"

"Oh my God!"

Di Yan patted his forehead and looked at him in disbelief, "I've never seen you as an official, don't sue me, you don't even have a moon and a mile!"

"There is a monthly salary, twelve times a month, plus internal security allowance, field allowance, etc., about fifty times a month, and Lumi will only have it at the end of the year, but I really haven't heard that I will divide my Yongye field. ”

Di Yan let out a long sigh and looked at him helplessly, "This is bullying you! You are a five-rank general, although you are only a guard officer, you can't be compared with a ministry official, but you should have at least five acres of Yongye land, and another five hectares of office land, which adds up to a thousand acres of land."

Yongye Tian can be passed on to the children and grandchildren, and the post field will be handed over after retiring, and the Yongye field must be given, even if the post field cannot be given for a while, it must be converted into Lu rice every year according to two buckets per mu to compensate you, and only a tyrant like you should not take it seriously, if other officials did not give Yongye Tian, they would have been angry and jumped to their feet. ”

Li Zhen heard that he actually had 1,000 acres of land, and he was also a little moved, even if there was no job field, but 500 acres of Yongye land should be there!
