A year passed, and in the spring of the second year, Cui Pu's family set off from Guangzhou and traveled to Liangzhou, which was located in the northernmost part of the territory of the New Tang Dynasty.

This road is swaying, from watching the flowers and plants in the south compete to spit out green, blooming bright and dazzling flowers, to the flowers and plants on the side of the road slowly spit out a little green, and after entering Gansu, there is almost no green on the road, only the dry loess under the feet, and the yellow sand in the sky.

From time to time, a gust of wind blew, and the maids and servants hurriedly lowered the car window, and the curtain was tightly covered, but they still could not resist the power of the wind and sand. After every gust of wind, everyone feels that their mouths are full of sand, not to mention the carriages and horses, and it takes half a day to clean them every time. Even the eldest lady who loves to ride horses the most has changed her previous temperament of showing off her might on horseback, and obediently hid in the carriage and snuggled up to Mu Jiaojiao.

It was easy to arrive in Liangzhou, and Cui Pu and his party were already genuine dust servants.

Twenty miles outside the city of Liangzhou, Liangzhou Sima, Liangzhou prefect and others have already led the crowd to wait here.

"Cui Tingshi, we have been waiting for a few months, but we are looking forward to your coming!" When Cui Pu's horse arrived, Sima Zhan Mingcheng greeted him and greeted him respectfully.

Cui Pu turned over and dismounted, greeted them one by one, and everyone got on the horse again, entered Liangzhou City, and went to the Assassin's Mansion.

After entering the Assassin's Mansion, he took out the appointment documents of the Ministry of Officials, checked them one by one, and then received the seal of the Assassin's History, and his identity as the Assassin of Liangzhou was decided.

After a few more greetings with Sima Governor and others, this group of people said goodbye to each other, allowing them to repair with peace of mind. Sima also intimately informed Cui Pu that he would bring his wife to visit Cui Pu again tomorrow.

The Thorn Mansion was cleaned up inside and out, but it was empty everywhere, waiting for its new owner to fill it.

As soon as the red bean and mung bean sisters got out of the car, they ordered people to arrange it inside and out. Soon, Cui Pumu, Jiaojiao and several children's bedrooms were cleaned up. The kitchen regenerated the fire, boiled water for them to bathe and change their clothes, and the family had a meal together, and the four children went back to their rooms tired to rest.

Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao were also too tired.

It's just that when they first arrived here, they were still a little excited and unfamiliar, and they couldn't sleep even when they were lying in bed.

The husband and wife snuggled quietly, and Mu Jiaojiao told him what had just happened. "I really didn't expect that this Zhan Sima and Yuan Governor would be so enthusiastic and respectful to you. Especially Zhan Sima, this thoughtfulness makes me almost think that he is your old subordinate. ”

Sima is the deputy assassin of the history of the assassin, the deputy of the history of the assassin. This Zhan Sima will be Cui Pu's direct subordinate in the future.

"If you want to remind me, do we still need to beat around the bush?" Cui Pu said in a low voice.

"Hey, did you find out too?" Mu Jiaojiao immediately blinked, looking surprised.

Cui Pu snorted lightly. "I've been in the officialdom for more than ten years, if I don't even have this kind of look, how can I get mixed up? This Zhan Sima looks extremely affectionate on his face, but the disgust in his eyes is also clearly written. Can't I see him when I'm stupid? I've seen a lot of this kind of good old man who is submissive!"

The best among them is the king of Hejian County, and that is the leader of the heart. After dealing with that person, now this Zhan Sima's performance is like a little doll deliberately trying to play with an adult, and that little bit of caution can be seen through at a glance.

The reason why he didn't expose him was just that he personally took someone to pick him up outside the city, and made a lively start to his career in Liangzhou, so he had the heart to give him face.

When Mu Jiaojiao heard this, she smiled and said, "This is the first time you have met, but I see that he looks at you with hatred." Guess why?"

"What else can it be for, either for money or for fame. Cui Pu waved his hand, "Go back and ask someone to check it." ”

Mu Jiaojiao bowed his head. "Just let Zhao Liu and them go!"

"You can arrange this!" Cui Pu nodded, which was in agreement.

Over the years, Zhao Tian and his son have been by their side. At the beginning in Yangzhou, Cui Pu really married him a powerful lady, and he has been managed to death all these years. Even Zhao Tian, the uncle, was stunned by his daughter-in-law, and the father and son are much more honest now. Under the supervision of the powerful lady, they obediently went to the government every day to work, and after receiving the monthly salary, they handed it over to the powerful lady, and then the powerful lady arranged food and accommodation.

However, this lady is powerful, but her means of governing the family are not bad. In the past few years since she married Zhao Liu, she not only added two sons to him, but the Zhao family's family business has also improved. Therefore, no matter how Zhao Tian's father and son complained, outsiders scolded them for not knowing what to do. After a long time, they stopped screaming. After Aunt Zhao learned that the father and son's life was getting better and better, she no longer paid attention to the grievance letter written by her younger brother, but taught them a lesson as a sister, told him to live in peace, and carried forward the old Zhao family.

Now that even the most powerful backers have collapsed, they can only honestly do some chores under Cui Pu to make a living. It's just that the dog can't change to eat, the father and son will gamble twice while the powerful lady is not paying attention, and wherever they see good things, they will itch and steal a little bit, and they have been caught by the housekeeper several times, and Mu Jiaojiao naturally ruthlessly punished them. They are now scared when they see Mu Jiaojiao, more afraid than Cui Pu.

Now Mu Jiaojiao asked them to do something, and they didn't dare not go. What's more, this is an order to work, and there will definitely be a reward for doing a good job. Mu Jiaojiao has always been generous in rewarding people, and the powerful lady is called by Mu Jiaojiao to talk and reward because she manages their father and son well. This also led to the powerful lady managing them more and more straightforwardly, and the father and son could only complain in their hearts.

The next day, Zhan Sima came to visit again with his wife.

Mu Jiaojiao received Mrs. Zhan Sima, and there were also two sisters of the eldest lady and the little lady standing beside her.

When Mrs. Zhan Sima saw the two sisters, she began to exclaim: "What a beautiful pair of sisters! Mrs. Thorn Shi, you can really give birth, look at this pair of little ladies, born so well, it is really impossible to take your eyes off it, how to look at it, how to feel like." You and Cui Tingshi are really blessed!"

Mu Jiaojiao nodded with a smile. "Mrs. Zhan Sima, you and Zhan Sima are also good-looking, presumably several little ladies in the house are also born well. ”

"Hey, those few in my family, where can they compare with the little lady in your house, Mrs. Thorn Shi, this kind of bearing alone is 10,000 miles behind!" Mrs. Zhan Sima smiled, and hurriedly took out the meeting gift to the two sisters.

The eldest lady took Ah Mei to accept it, and then respectfully saluted and thanked her.

Lady Jamesa was again full of praise for their courtesy.

When the sisters saw the guests, they were surrounded by the maids and nurses and went out to play. Mrs. Zhan Sima leaned over to Mu Jiaojiao again, and said with a cautious look: "But Mrs. Thorn Shi, it's not me who scares you, the two little ladies in your house are so good, you must take good care of them." This Liangzhou is no better than other places, there is chaos here! From time to time, robbers will appear on the streets, and there are robbers and robbers. The two little ladies are born like flowers and bones, and they are really one in a million good looks, and they will definitely attract attention when they walk on the street. You must take care of them, and don't let those thieves get away with them!"

"Really, thieves are so rampant here?" Mu Jiaojiao looked surprised.

"But isn't it? Those people are bold, it doesn't matter who you are or what your background is! Anyway, if you see it, you will directly reach out and kidnap people, and then take them directly out of the border of Liangzhou. There are people from the Western Regions, Qiang people, Hu people, and Turkic people here, and they drill into the crowd, but no one can find them. The last assassin of the history of Da Langjun was stabbed to death by a Qiang man because he quarreled with someone on the street for a jar of wine, and the murderer has not been found yet!"

"That's messy enough. Mu Jiaojiao nodded.

"Yes, yes, we are all careful in our lives here, and we don't dare to make enemies with others, even if something happens one day. We're all looking forward to returning to our hometown with all the mustaches and tails!" said Mrs. Zhan Sima, and suddenly laughed again, "But it's okay, isn't Cui Tingshi here now? We heard that when he was in Guangzhou, he made great achievements in suppressing robbers, and he must not let the situation in front of him go down when he came to Liangzhou." Now, the people of Liangzhou are going to live a clean life!"

Mu Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows. "Who told you that?"

"Now the whole Liangzhou City has spread all over the city! Now who doesn't know the great name of Cui Tingshi, all the good things he did in Yangzhou and Guangzhou have been compiled into a book and said in the teahouse and winehouse. Every time I talk about Cui Tingshi, the teahouse and restaurant are full!" said Mrs. Zhan Sima with a smile.

"I see. Mu Jiaojiao shook his head.

In the afternoon, Zhan Sima and his wife left, and Zhao Liu also came over.

It turns out that this Zhan Sima has been in Liangzhou for almost twenty years, he climbed up from the lowest level of paperwork, climbed to this position step by step, and is almost familiar with the officials in the entire Liangzhou Mansion. The previous assassin also had an excellent relationship with him. Heard...... I just heard that before the previous assassin stepped down, he once confided that he wanted to recommend him to take over the position of assassin. As a result, who knows, the imperial court suddenly ordered that Lang Jun and you were transferred, and he continued to stay in Sima's position. ”

"I see, and sure enough, it's because of the official position. Cui Pu pouted, "Why do you say that Li Linfu's old heart is so poisonous? It wasn't enough to set up so many stumbling blocks for me in Guangzhou last time, but this time it has actually intensified! If it was said that Wei Tingshi and Pei Jingluo just thought that I had taken some food from their mouths, now in Zhan Sima's opinion, I am going to kill him! It is strange that he will not fight with me!"

From Sima to Thorn History, it is only one step away, but it will take at least three years to take this step out. Moreover, if it weren't for Li Linfu's obstruction, people would have been living in this mansion in a beautiful way now. But now, he is still aggrieved and shrunk in his previous position, and he still has to smile at himself, a newcomer who doesn't know anything, and he feels bored when he thinks about himself.

Mu Jiaojiao was also powerless to support her forehead. "Today Madame Jamesa has already shown something. ”

"What's going on?" Cui Pu hurriedly asked.

Mu Jiaojiao repeated the words that Madame Zhan Sima had threatened her.

After Cui Pu heard this, he sneered again. "This couple is very powerful! The man was in front of me to analyze the situation and give me advice, and he did his best. The woman is shaking the morale of the army in the rear and scaring you in all kinds of ways. If you are really one of those pampered women in Chang'an City, I am afraid that I will be so frightened that I will flee in a hurry! When the time comes, I will also have a reputation as being dragged down by ignorant women and children, and our reputations will be over!"

Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly. "Actually, if you think about it, it's quite interesting. Isn't it?"

"It's kind of interesting. Cui Pu said, "It's murderous just now, it's really hard to do things without lifting your spirits!"

As the husband and wife were talking, they heard the little four outside say loudly: "Lang Jun, lady, Deputy Guo is here!"

Guo Ziyi is here!

Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu were both overjoyed, and hurriedly threw Zhan Sima's matter aside, and hurriedly greeted him.
