Mu Jiaojiao saw the stack of account books piled high in front of her, she was angry and funny.

"That's it, you took advantage of the fact that they were unconscious, and directly moved the ledger and food back?"

"Yes!" Cui Pu lay beside her proudly, "This is called a surprise and an unpreparedness! This time, we shot very quickly, and with Wang Qiqi pointing out on the side, we directly collected their small account books." Now, the evidence of the bad things they did in Yangzhou Mansion has been really held in my hands. I don't believe it, and now they dare to go crazy in front of me!"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at him weakly. "I thought you were going to fight them right away yesterday. ”

"If I had done it before. But now that I'm the prefect of a place, wouldn't it hurt my face to do this kind of thing? Besides, to do something with that kind of person is to use my identity to raise his face, and I would be stupid to do such a thankless job!"

"You finally get the idea. Mu Jiaojiao let out a long breath and patted his head, "Congratulations, this temperament can be regarded as a lot more mellow." ”

Cui Pu looked at her unhappily. "Look at your tone, as if I used to be reckless. ”

"You weren't reckless before, but it's true that you often can't hold back your temper. Mu Jiaojiao said.

Cui Pu pursed his lips, but he also knew that what she said was the truth. Before him, just like Mu Jiaojiao said about his daughter that day, he was a character who had something to attack on the spot. Otherwise, he won't be able to sleep at night!

Doing that, it's cool, but the consequences are endless.

It's also his luck that he can cleverly find an excuse to get things done almost every time. Otherwise, he would have been dead by now I don't know how many times!

But people always have to grow. He can't keep pulling others into the water just because he is angry. Therefore, the ups and downs of officialdom for nearly eight years, and in the collisions and blows again and again, the edges and corners of his temperament have been smoothed out little by little. Of course, the main reason is that he has become a father!

With this in Mu Jiaojiao's belly, he has three children, and he can no longer act as recklessly as before. He wants his children to establish a stable and honest father image, and he can't let his wife and children be taken hostage and retaliated against because of his relationship.

He can actually have a big fight with Wan Tianci on the spot today, breathe a good sigh of relief for the people, and also breathe a sigh of relief for himself. But what about next? There must be an endless tug-of-war. In the end, the best situation is that Wan Tianci's identity as the grain chief is withdrawn, but the grain handed over to the imperial court still has to be collected. And if this matter makes a fuss again, the fathers and brothers in Chang'an City will have to run back and forth for him. But now, Daddy is no longer a left servant. The elder brother has only been out of filial piety for a short time, and has just returned to Yushitai to do things. At this time, let them worry about him, it will not only be as simple as letting their father and brother work, but it is very likely to affect the elder brother who has just returned to the imperial court!

What Shangguan would want to see his subordinates running around all day long for their family's affairs? Especially now Cui Hui is in the Yushitai, which has always been proud of everyone's self-discipline and integrity!

The reality was that he had to compromise.

If Elder Cui Ge knew about this, he should also praise him for his growth!

After going through all this in his mind, Cui Pu got up and stretched: "It's not early, I'm going to the government to do something." You can wait here today, and there will be a lot of excitement in a while!"

Mu Jiaojiao yawned and shook her head helplessly.

Wan Tianci and his party waited until the afternoon to come.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he was stopped by Hu San, who was carrying a big knife.

"Who's coming?

Report your name! Last time we went to Wei's Restaurant for a drink, weren't you the one who escorted Cui Pu over? Everyone met at the time! What do you mean by pretending to be an unknown person now?

Wan Tianci was furious in his heart. But now that the ledger is in the hands of others, he has to bow his head.

squeezed out a smile and said: "I am the grain chief Wan Tianci who came to Yangzhou to collect grain this time, and now I have something important to meet with Governor Cui." ”

"Governor Cui is busy in the afternoon! I can't spare time to see you. Hu San said coldly.

Yesterday, he accompanied Cui Pu to Tianchang County, but he saw the faces of this group of people clearly. Of course, when he went to move things at night, he also put a lot of effort into it. Later, after moving the account books back, he also listened to Cui Pu and Wang Qiqi talk on the sidelines, and learned that this group of people had been so greedy in less than a month, and he was even more angry that he couldn't break them into pieces on the spot!

So now, it's good that he can endure just giving this person a cold face.

But Wan Tianci didn't think so.

Since Li Linfu gained power, his status has also risen with the tide, and there are people in Chang'an City who are scrambling to slap him every day. After he got the position of grain chief from Li Linfu this time, until today, he was desperately complimented wherever he went, and he was used to such days. But now, the official in front of him actually dares to throw his face at him?

That is, now he has a request for Cui Pu, and it is inconvenient to have a seizure. But wait for this to happen, see if he doesn't catch this bastard with thin skin cramps!

However, now, he still had to hold back his anger and asked in a low voice: "Then I don't know when Governor Cui will be free?" Why don't you go and report to him first, knowing that I am here, he may come out to see me." ”

"No way. Hu San coldly refused.

"You!" Wan Tianci almost had a seizure, and Hu San glanced at him, "The prefect has important things to do now, and he has no time to pay attention to you." If you're really in a hurry, leave a post, and I'll pass it on to the prefect when I get back. He'll see it and he'll get back to you. ”

It was because he was in a hurry that he hurried to the gate of the government to wait. If you go through the process of posting, it will take at least two or three days. By then, Cui Pu must have already cleaned up the account books, and he could only let him handle it!

"No! I have something to tell Governor Cui about the grain requisition, 100,000 urgent! I must see him now!" Wan Tianci shouted.

Hu San just glanced at him lightly and simply ignored him.

Wan Tianci was so angry that he almost wanted to scold. At this pass, I saw a man walking by.

"Ah, isn't this the chief of ten thousand grains, why did you come here? At this time, aren't you supposed to collect grain in Tianchang County?" As soon as he opened his mouth like this, he added another layer of qi to Wan Tianci.

Aren't you people all aware of why I'm here? Now that it's so easy to grasp this handle, you are laughing at me?

But he still held back his anger: "I heard that Governor Cui wants to count the data of the grain collection over the years, so I will see if he needs my help." ”

"Wanliang Chief, you are really warm-hearted, the prefect must be very grateful to you when he knows it!" Xiao Si'er hurriedly smiled and said, "In that case, you can go in with me!" Let's sit down and have a cup of tea first, and when the prefect is done with the matter at hand, he will definitely come to talk to you." ”

Anyway, this kid still knows the height of his eyebrows.

Wan Tianci breathed a sigh of relief, and glared at Hu San viciously - I have written down this account! I will definitely find you to settle this account when I go back!

Hu San glared back without showing weakness - write it down, write it down, who is afraid of whom?

This bastard! Wan Tianci scolded in his heart.

But soon, he knew that Hu San was not a bastard, and the real bastard was his master Cui Pu, Cui Pu!

After leading people to the mansion and placing them in a side hall, Xiao Si'er asked someone to bring them a cup of tea, plus a refreshment.

"You guys wait here first, and now I'll go and report to the prefect. He'll be over in a moment. ”

Then, the group began to wait stupidly.

After drinking a cup of tea, Cui Pu did not appear. The refreshments ran out, but the people were still gone.

Knowing that Cui Pu was deliberately hanging them, they could only endure it now!

But after enduring it for more than an hour, they couldn't bear it anymore!

Wan Tianci gave a look, and immediately someone rushed out. But before they could reach the door, two figures flashed outside, blocking their way.

"What do you mean by this? We want to see Governor Cui!"

"The prefect is busy, and when he is done, he will naturally come to see you. ”

But he didn't believe it!

"I'm going to see him now!"

"No! the prefect is busy!"

"What is he up to?"

"How can you outsiders inquire about the affairs of the prefect at will?"

"You-"

Wan Tianci wanted to say more, but saw that the two people in the way directly showed two cold and shining big knives: "Give me back one by one, stay honestly, and don't move! If you move again, don't blame us for being polite!"

It's over, they're fooled again!

Seeing this scene, Wan Tianci shouted in his heart that it was not good-he should have stood at the door just now and not come in! As a result, he was deceived by Xiao Si'er's smiling face and followed him in stupidly.

Now they are the turtles in the urn, waiting to be slaughtered by others!
