Meng Changqing was quick and immediately poured tea and handed it to him.

Mao Chunfang took a sip of tea, "I originally wanted someone to stop you and remind you that you don't have to come." ”

"I don't have to come?" Meng Changqing pretended to be stupid.

"You've only been in Beishan County for a few days, how can you report anything?"

"So that's the case, I'm young, I haven't been in contact with the affairs of the court, I just heard others say that there is such a rule." Meng Changqing used the acting skills she practiced in the palace, and her face was full of the anxiety of a newly recruited official, "It's me who is presumptuous, but since I'm here, let's say goodbye to the prefect for a New Year before leaving." ”

"Yes, since you are here, it would be rude for you not to say hello to the prefect before leaving." Hua Rujin gave Meng Changqing a cup of hot tea, "Hold warm hands." ”

Mao Chunfang sighed: "If I hadn't chased you, I wouldn't have come to Liangzhou so early, I'm afraid I'll have to wait here all day." ”

"Why?" Meng Changqing asked rhetorically.

"Master Xiao Meng doesn't know that you are chasing him." Hua Rujin helped Meng Changqing speak.

"Just kidding with Lord Meng." Mao Chunfang showed a smile on his face, bowed his head and explained to Meng Changqing, "In the whole of Liangzhou, take you Beishan County, a total of seven county seats, Lord Wei usually inquires about the situation from Quping County first, and finally it is my turn to Yangmen County." ”

"What about Lady Hana?"

Mao Chunfang said: "Lord Hua is ahead of me.

Before the existence of Beishan County, Yangmen County, Hongjia County and Weishan County were all border counties facing the enemy. The prefect was worried that we were not there and that the county town had changed, so the time when each adult came to Liangzhou Mansion was staggered, and we were not required to wait in the government office for a long time.

Lady Hua and I usually come in the afternoon. ”

Meng Changqing said, "Lord Hua is also to take care of me, so he came early?" ”

Hua Rujin did not answer this question directly, but said: "My county is small, and there are not many things. ”

Meng Changqing stood up and saluted them, "Changqing has bothered you. ”

"Sit down, sit down, don't be polite."

Mao Chunfang said, "Two days ago, I have already sent someone to return the horses you sent to my county seat. ”

"Thank you, Lord Mao."

It's hard to see the surface that isn't in the plan.

Meng Changqing drank bowl after bowl of tea, waiting from morning to afternoon.

Lord Zeng from Quping County, and adults from the other two counties who came later, all went back after reporting.

In the waiting room, Meng Changqing, Mao Chunfang and Hua Rujin were left.

"Don't worry." Hua Rujin has to comfort Meng Changqing every once in a while, for fear that she will die in a hurry.

But how could Meng Changqing be in a hurry? If it weren't for the presence of other county officials, she would have wanted to lie down on the bench and sleep.

It wasn't until about one o'clock in the afternoon, when there was movement outside the door again.

"It should be Lord Cao from Weishan County." Hua Rujin whispered to Meng Changqing, "He has a big temper, if he says something wrong, don't take it to heart." ”

"Of course, the adults are my seniors, and if there is any teaching, I will be patient and obedient."

The door was pushed open, and the county magistrate of Weishan County walked in.

This man must be about thirty or forty years old.

As soon as he came in, his eyes fell on Meng Changqing.

Meng Changqing stepped forward to greet him, "Lord Cao." ”

"Huh." Cao Hongxing chuckled and looked away from Meng Changqing, "It's really child's play." ”

"Lord Cao......" Hua Rujin was about to speak.

Meng Changqing smiled and said: "Change me with you, let me take over Weishan County, and ask you to go to Beishan County, that's child's play."

Lord Cao seems to have been dissatisfied with His Majesty's will for a long time, so why not send it to the prefect and let the prefect send him back to Beijing and persuade His Majesty. ”

Cao Hongxing's expression froze on his face, "It seems that Master Meng can get his current official position, and it has taken a lot of effort to talk about it, and it is really powerful when I see it today." ”

Meng Changqing lowered his face coldly, "It's not as powerful as you, Master Cao." ”

Hua Rujin came out to play a round, "Everyone is in Liangzhou, why should the two adults compete against each other?" ”

Cao Hongxing showed a sneering expression, "Master Meng is really a small person with a big temper, and he is a little ......."

"Are you old?" Meng Changqing directly interrupted his words and walked next to Cao Hongxing, "Lord Cao's height is about the same as mine, don't say anything about being small in the future, and scold him together with himself." ”

Mao Chunfang was directly dumbfounded, the person in front of her was not the same person as the one in the morning.

"You ......" Cao Hongxing pointed to Meng Changqing, and Chu Mufeng, who had been standing by the door, walked over quickly and blocked between Cao Hongxing and Meng Changqing.

"Who are you? Who let you into this room? Cao Hongxing said angrily.

Chu Mu was in the limelight, stared at the other party and said, "The Royal Forest Army guards Bai Mufeng." ”

Meng Changqing looked like he was backing on the side and the villain was ambitious, "Lord Cao, let's put in some temper." ”

"Ignorant child!"

Meng Changqing said very quickly: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I went to the city wall of Weishan County and was driven away by the soldiers under your rule. ”

"What's going on?" Hua Rujin said, "Lord Cao, you have to give an explanation." ”

What nice explanation can he give? Don't embarrass him, Master Hua, everyone knows it in their hearts, but he can't get used to me when he hasn't even met him. ”

Meng Changqing has never been afraid of offending people.

And she has always adhered to the principle that since she has offended, she will offend the other party to the end.

Since Cao Hongxing wants to find trouble, she will not restrain herself because of her modesty and concession, rather than endure the ridicule of others and make herself feel uncomfortable, it is better to make others uncomfortable from the beginning.

Thank you, Lord Cao, for helping her pass the boring waiting time.

A servant came to knock on the door, "Lord Cao, Lord Prefect asked you to come over." ”

Cao Hongxing took a few deep breaths before leaving angrily.

"Little Meng." Hua Rujin sighed, "Weishan County is close to your Beishan County, why do you want to offend him?" ”

"Oops." Meng Changqing began to pretend again, "I didn't hold back just now." ”

Hua Rujin patted her on the shoulder, "You have to change your temper." ”

After this episode, I still waited.

waited for Hua Rujin to be called, and then Mao Chunfang was called, and waited until four o'clock in the unitary hour before the official came to call her.

By this time it was completely dark.

"Lord Meng, Lord Prefect, please come over."

Meng Changqing straightened the clothes on his body, took the congratulatory message in his hand, and followed the official to the prefect's study.

"Evergreen." Wei Fangyun's voice was full of exhaustion, "I forgot to take care of you, you don't have to come here today." ”

"Uncle." Meng Changqing stepped forward, "I know I don't have to come here today, but for the sake of Beishan County, I have to come." ”

She handed the official document in her hand to Wei Fangyun's table, and saluted, "Please be sure to look at it." ”
