Lu Yuan accompanied Su Liyan to play in the provincial capital for a day.

As a daughter-in-law, Su Liyan naturally has to serve Lu Yuan well.

Lu Yuan lay on the bed, motionless, relaxing his tired body.

Su Liyan brought a basin of hot water to the bedside, took a maza and sat down.

"Brother~ I'll wash your feet first." Su Liyan is still the same as before, waiting for Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan sat up and said, "It's the same old thing, let's wash it together." ”

After speaking, Lu Yuan helped Su Liyan up from the horse and pressed him on the bed.

Su Liyan got up and sat side by side with her man.

Their feet reached into the hot water together.

Lu Yuan rubbed the mud on his daughter-in-law's feet with his own feet.

Lu Yuan's feet were on top of his daughter-in-law's smooth feet.

Lu Yuan said: "Daughter-in-law, your feet are still so cold. ”

His daughter-in-law is a snake girl of the half-demon clan, and her body temperature is a few degrees lower than that of ordinary people.

Lu Yuan also made up for his body, but it didn't necessarily have any effect.

It seems that it is the difference in species, and the body temperature of the snake girl of the half-demon clan is lower than that of ordinary people.

Su Liyan looked at her brother affectionately, approached the other party little by little, and snorted Lu Yuan fiercely.

Lu Yuan felt the enthusiasm of his daughter-in-law and responded positively.

My daughter-in-law will know a lot now, and she is not as subtle as she was at the beginning.

Su Liyan's long snake tongue at the tip of the tip stirred up, extremely smart.

Lu Yuan likes the time when only two people are together.

If his daughter is jumping around, I'm afraid I'm going to kick him again.

His daughter Jumping is the most unbearable for Lu Yuan to bully his mother.

The cold snake tongue gave Lu Yuan the feeling that it was as if he had taken a bite of ice cream on a hot day and put it in his mouth.

In summer, a mouthful of ice cream slowly melts in the mouth, cools in the mouth, and melts in the heart.

Lu Yuan responded positively to his daughter-in-law.

Lu Yuan tore off the folded quilt on the bed with his left hand.

The two got into it very tacitly.

No one turned off the lights.

The feet that had just come out of the footbath were still wet.

Just wipe it next to the bed to wipe the water off your feet.

After Lu Yuan and Su Liyan dried their feet, they lay down to rest.

The footbath was not brought out, so it was placed next to the bed, thinking that it would be brought out again after getting up tomorrow morning and pouring out the footwashing water.

There wasn't much space under the quilt, and the two of them whirled around in it for a while.

The clothes were thrown out one by one.

Squeak, rattle, rattle.

At three o'clock in the morning, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan were satisfied to pick up the clothes that were thrown under the bed last night.

Lu Yuan, who was sleepy-eyed, almost stepped on the footbath that was not served out last night.

Lu Yuan patted the dust on his clothes and shook it a few more times.

Su Liyan covered the bed with a quilt and waited for her brother to hand her clothes.

Lu Yuan separated the clothes on the ground, put his daughter-in-law's clothes on the bed, and put his own clothes directly under the bed.

Su Liyan first carried a small piece of clothes to put on her body, and the small pink clothes were like a cloth, which couldn't cover much things.

Lu Yuan got dressed early, sat on the bench, and looked at his daughter-in-law with his head tilted.

In order not to make my brother wait too long.

Su Liyan tied up her coat one by one, and after getting dressed, she pulled Lu Yuan out of the room, and she didn't even have makeup.

Su Liyan is not very rare to wear makeup.

Lu Yuan took his daughter-in-law down the stairs and went to the lobby on the first floor.

Lu Yuan ordered fried shiitake mushrooms, fried mutton, mung bean soup, fragrant rice, and a plate of small pickles given by the store.

After the dishes were ready, the two of them began to eat.

Lu Yuan got up relatively late, and there were not many people in the lobby of the post house at this time.

The cronies also had eaten early and went to do chores such as feeding the horses.

While the two of them were eating sweetly, an older man came from the room on the second floor.

This person cautiously walked up to Lu Yuan and shouted, "Lord Lu, Lord Lu"

Lu Yuan stopped the chopsticks in his hand and looked at the person in front of him.

Isn't this person the one who is in the fief under the jurisdiction of King Lu and is the one who should know the county.

At that time, I was crying so much that I was crying all over the place, and I knelt down for myself.

Lu Yuan belonged to the same political envoy as him.

Lu Yuan patted his head, pulled open the stool next to him, and motioned for the other party to sit down.

Lu Yuan said politely: "They are all magistrates of small counties, how can there be any adults here?" ”

The magistrate sat down slowly and said, "Lord Lu, we actually met here. ”

Lu Yuan left behind the matter entrusted to him by the magistrate.

If this magistrate knew that he didn't intercede for him at all, he wouldn't have learned from the old turtle in the Tongtian River to give someone a knife in the back.

Without waiting for Lu Yuan to speak, the magistrate sighed: "Hey, when I am the magistrate there, I have achieved nothing, I don't know what to report this time, and I don't dare to say anything." I beg Lord Lu to beg the political envoy of Nabu to transfer me away. ”

Lu Yuan responded: "Actually, we don't have much good relationship with the political envoy, so let's give you a few words of help when the time comes." ”

The magistrate immediately got up and bowed again and again, and thanked him again and again.

Lu Yuan is in Taining City, how is he doing, the officials of Qilu Province are all hearsay, and they also regard Lu Yuan as their own relatives of the political envoy.

Lu Yuan sent the magistrate away, and after breakfast, he went back to the house with Su Liyan.

"Daughter-in-law, why hasn't our brother-in-law come yet, it's time for me to meet the political envoy this afternoon."

Lu Yuan counted the days, and his brother-in-law should also come.

"Bang bang."

"Young Master Nephew!" A cronie knocked at the door and said.

"What?" Lu Yuan replied.

"It's my nephew's younger brother who is here and is at the front desk in the lobby on the first floor."

Lu Yuan clapped his hands and said, "Whatever you want, bring him up." ”

"Yes, Young Master Nephew!"

Su Liyan saw Su Changliang and gave his younger brother a hug.

Su Changliang pushed his sister, thinking to himself: What are you doing, in front of your brother-in-law.

Su Changliang really didn't appreciate it, this sweet beauty hug, some people couldn't remember it.

It's not uncommon for this to be a younger brother.

Lu Yuan opened his mouth and said: "Brother-in-law, fortunately, you came, otherwise we would have been caught blind if we hadn't reported this afternoon." ”

"Brother-in-law, there was a delay on the road, but fortunately I caught up in time."

When this horse is still strained, it is naturally not as fast as Lu Yuan riding a motorcycle.

Su Changliang took out three thick official books from his bag behind his back and said, "Brother-in-law, this is the record of all the affairs of Taining City this year. ”

Lu Yuan picked up an official book on the top floor and said, "This year, have we done so much?" ”

Su Changliang said confidently: "Yes, yes, it is clearly recorded on it." ”

Lu Yuan flipped through it casually, and these were all some practical things that he did as a county official.

"Lingshi Mine Except Xingzi."

"Taining City Factory"

"The people take food as their heaven and cultivate hybrid crops."

"Assist Deputy Commander Song Chi to suppress bandits"

"Wheat harvesters help farmers harvest grain."

Even the redress of Aunt Zhao and Aunt Song is recorded.

Lu Yuan was very relieved after seeing it, this Su Changliang is really a good material for his career.

"Okay, very good, our brother-in-law just has the ability, and it's a bit condescending to do this little housekeeping in the county office."

"Thanks to my brother-in-law's help." Su Changliang said calmly.

Su Changliang has grown up so fast, Su Liyan also sees it in his heart, and he is very happy for him.

In the afternoon, Su Liyan and his cronies stayed at the post house.

Lu Yuan only took Su Changliang to the place where the political envoy worked.

In the front hall of the house, there were seven or eight people standing, all of whom were magistrates and their subordinates who had come to report on official business.

Nazhi County, who had dinner and communicated with Lu Yuan in the morning, also came, and it turned out to be the same batch as Lu Yuan.

As soon as the political envoy came to the front hall, he swept Lu Yuan, and only smiled at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan looked at the inexplicable smile of the political envoy, it had been a long time since he last met with the political envoy.

Lu Yuan thought to himself: "Are we so familiar with each other?" Still smiling at me, shouldn't you be greedy for my handsomeness? ”

According to the previous rules, all local magistrates and counties must first submit their official books.

The official book records various events in the prefecture under its jurisdiction.

Su Changliang handed it over on behalf of Lu Yuan.

The official books of these four or five county towns were lined up one after another and displayed on the case.

You don't have to look closely, you can see that the official book of Taining City is the thickest, and it is bound in three volumes.

On the contrary, Nazhi County, in the territory of King Lu, submitted only a very thin volume,

This magistrate is a sincere person, even if you eat, drink and have fun, even if we just don't do anything practical.

It's better to write more, why is it so real.

Bu Zheng used his hand to pinch the official book, which had few pages, and raised it to the height of his own eyes, looking at the thickness of the official book.

Bu Zheng squeezed it with his hand, and the already thick book was compressed even thinner.

This operation looks like a teacher checking students' homework.

The political envoy looked at the magistrate with a gloomy face and said, "You, are you just going to get a cover for me?" ”

After hearing this, the honest magistrate fell to his knees as soon as his legs weakened, and he was dumb and couldn't tell if he was suffering from Coptis chinensis.

In King Lu's fiefdom, it was too difficult to do something, and there were people from the prince everywhere to restrain him.

The political envoy didn't even read the contents of it, so he threw it in front of the magistrate who was kneeling on the ground.

The magistrate, who was already kneeling on the ground, looked at the official book on the ground in front of him, and lowered his head even more, and his calves and stomachs were spinning.

The political envoy flipped through other people's official books, but not Lu Yuan's.

The political envoy reprimanded every county that was consulted to a greater or lesser extent.

After that, the political envoy inspected them one by one and asked a lot of questions

"What is the permanent population of the county?"

"How many acres of paddy field and dry land are there?"

"How much is the tax this year?"

Such problems are also well known to the political envoys.

There are other ways to learn about this when he gets to this official position.

Therefore, the magistrates who were questioned did not care about nonsense, and what was not clear was not clear.

Every year, the questions asked by the political envoy are in a variety of ways, and unless they are people who really understand, it is difficult to answer them all.

Among the magistrates who were asked, it was the magistrate who had done the thinnest official book.

It can be seen that this magistrate really wants to do things for the people, but he can't do it.

Of course, there are also many lazy counties in it, who were reprimanded by the political envoys.

Lu Yuan and Su Changliang stood aside, looking at the people who knelt on the ground.

Lu Yuan thought in his heart: "Mom, if you ask us, we can't answer these questions, but my brother-in-law should be clear." ”

The envoy waved his hand and asked his subordinates to drive these people out.

Whether it was a punishment or a demotion, none of this was said.

Wait for the others, after leaving.

With a smile on his face, the political envoy walked up to Lu Yuan and said, "Lu Zhixian, you have done so many things in less than a year after taking office. ”

The political envoy said with a smile as he looked at the official book.

Lu Yuan arched his hand and said: "I have done very little personally, mainly because of the good of the adult leaders, and then it is the good of us who are in charge of things for us." ”

The dots here are not just praising Su Changliang for doing things well.

The day before yesterday, the political envoy who had been beaten looked at the young man next to Lu Yuan and said, "He is a handsome talent, and he can be of great use." ”

The envoy put down the official book in his hand and said, "What is your name?" What's the matter? ”

Su Changliang said respectfully: "Back to your lord"

Su Changliang told the political envoy his name and position.

The political envoy said: "In this way, I will now appoint you as the magistrate of Taining City." ”

After Su Changliang heard this, he hurriedly refused: "My lord, by all means, we are just a little steward, what the county can't do, it's still Lu Zhixian who can't do it." ”

Lu Yuan listened to these words, and his feelings were to give himself a boost and give his brother-in-law a promotion.

A few days ago, you left all the gifts that were given to you.

I wanted you to reprimand a few words less and give some face.

This is good, and we have lost all our official positions.

Lu Yuan thought to himself: "That's fine, no official is light, you can concentrate on doing something else, engaging in guns and so on." ”

This county government office, Lu Yuan doesn't care about it.

If Lu Yuan's grandfather knew, he would still be able to lose his official position, so he got up angrily and whipped him a few times.

Isn't this being an official and being an official just the older generation's thoughts about the next generation?

Su Changliang was extremely reluctant in his heart, no matter how he tried, he couldn't rob his brother-in-law's iron rice bowl.

The political envoy looked at Su Changliang and didn't appreciate it, but he didn't care about him in general, and said: "Okay, this matter is settled, you go back first, someone will find you in the future." ”

Su Changliang glanced at his brother-in-law, and wanted his brother-in-law to come forward to persuade him again, so that the political envoy could change his mind.

Although Su Changliang also wanted to be promoted, he didn't want to take up his brother-in-law's official position.

Lu Yuan shook his head, and his eyes hinted that Su Changliang should no longer be stubborn with the political envoy.

Su Changliang reluctantly resigned.

After Su Changliang left, the political envoy ordered his subordinates to serve tea to Lu Yuan and arranged a seat.

After the subordinates left, there were only two people left in the front hall, the political envoy and Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan sat down, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and put it on the table again.

The political envoy said straight to the point: "Lord Lu, let's be straight, you can't be the magistrate of Taining City." (End of chapter)
