Before he entered the city, he ran into a case, Wang Qilin raised his head and asked Cangtian: Could it be that he is a legendary thing?

Wu Wu said: "There is very little red lady insect poison mixed in this sugar man, it will not poison people, at most it will make the child's body a little weak." ”

The group glanced at each other and suddenly said: "The family affairs of a big family." ”

Wang Qilin sighed: "As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, and there are so many cats in the backyards of these big families, since this poison can't poison people, then let's check whose family the child belongs to in the future, and go and talk about it secretly." ”

It is difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, not to mention that the insect poison mixed in the little sugar man is very small, and even if he checks the door, he can't say anything.

In particular, this insect venom can also be used in medicine!

Xu Da muttered: "As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea?"

Wang Qilin said helplessly: "Master Xu, we are all our own people here, what's the use of you complaining?"

Xu Dadao: "Seventh Master, what do you mean by this? Who do you think of the uncle? The uncle thought of a strange thing. ”

"You said that as soon as you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea, and the children of the Houmen and the children of the big families must wear gold, silver, and silk and satin, right? That child is dressed very ordinary, the back of his hands is very cold, and his earlobes even have chilblains, isn't that right?"

Wang Qilin thought for a while and said, "You go and keep an eye on that kid, and the others will follow me into the city." ”

The layout of the Uehara Mansion is developed along the river by the mountain, the east and west are longer than the north and south, among which there is a longest and widest Wenqu road in the east and west, and there is a Wuluo road in the north and south, the two roads are in a very positive direction, and the core building of the county town is built at the intersection of the place: a bell and drum tower.

The height of this bell and drum tower is 20 zhang, it comes from the hand of the Mo family giant, and has a very elegant name called Bai Yujing.

Heavenly Bai Yujing, the fifth floor of the twelve cities.

There are bells and drums on the bell and drum tower, and there are guards who ring the bell to tell the time every morning and evening, and if there is a major event in the army, it is changed to drum fighting.

Around the bell and drum tower and two large roads are many important buildings in the county, among which the yamen of the county town is here, Wang Qilin can't care about going back to settle down, he has to meet the silver general Taiba first.

The establishment of the rank of the Heavenly Supervisor is very simple, the township is a small seal, the county seat is a big seal, the prefecture is an iron captain, the county is a silver general, and a county has at least six prefectures, so generally every two to three prefectures and cities there is also a copper lieutenant directly under the jurisdiction.

Tong Wei is not mainly used to do things, but to provide military support to the prefecture under his jurisdiction, and the prefecture immediately reacts to them when it encounters something that cannot be solved, and hands it over to them to deal with.

But this has led to a problem, that is, the county town has a redundant bureaucracy, the city itself must have a post office, the direct governor of a county will need a post office, and if the copper captain in charge of the county town also stays here, there must also be a post office.

In this way, one city has three post houses, which is not easy to do.

Therefore, the Heavenly Supervisor does not set up a post office for the copper captain in the county town, but there are two post stations in the county town, the iron captain and the silver general, and the post office of the copper captain must be set up in another government city under its jurisdiction.

So now that Wang Qilin has come to the county seat, he only needs to go to visit Taiba, and Tongwei Zhu Yuan is not in the city, and they meet temporarily.

He didn't run into Taiba either.

Taiba is as idle as a bird, he is always wandering outside the county town, after Wang Qilin came to the door, Taiba's henchman Tiewei Dai Mao told him that Taiba went to continue to investigate the whereabouts of the six orders of the Xingtian Sacrifice, and he has not returned this month.

If he didn't see Taiba, then he was going to see Wu Hanlin.

Last time, he and Xu Da came to the county mansion, and they were familiar with the way, so they easily found the door.

After he came to the door, he reported to his home, a servant ran quickly, and after a while, Dou Dachun's figure appeared, he rushed over with a waist knife, and shouted: "Seventh master, you are finally here!"

Dou Dachun, Yang Dazui and Rim and others have already entered the county town in advance, and they are covered by Wu Hanlin, and they are naturally mixed like fish in water in the county town.

Wang Qilin asked, "What is Lord County Guard doing?"

Dou Dachun panted and said: "If you are free, you are free, the county guard said, as long as the seventh master comes, no matter what he is doing, even if it is to go to the toilet, he will take the time to meet you first." ”

The county guard was very busy, in fact, Wu Hanlin was not available, he was in a meeting with a large number of officials in the city to arrange the upcoming Laba soup kitchen.

The land of Kyushu is known as "after Laba is the year", "drink Laba porridge to do the year" saying, this is the first important festival after entering the month of Laba, so the Yamen will organize a small activity on this day, the most common of which is Laba soup.

And this year, the whole county suffered from the snow disaster, except for Pingyang Prefecture, which has the Wu family's support, and the people in other prefectures and counties are having a hard time, so this year we have to hold a large-scale Laba soup soup activity.

Dou Dachun directly took Wang Qilin into the venue, and at this time Wu Hanlin was angry, and he said with a calm face to several officials: "The grain depot of the imperial court dares to open it privately?

The leading official is called Taicang Langzhong, which is the highest official in charge of grain and grass supply in various prefectures, and is a five-grade official.

It is estimated that Wu Hanlin has not been angry since he took office, which will make Taicang Langzhong tremble with fright, his face is pale, and he doesn't say anything, just a strong salute.

Wu Hanlin's face softened after seeing Wang Qilin, he threw the brush in his hand on the table and shouted: "The soup kitchen will come here first, and all your colleagues will take stock of the work at hand first, and come back in half an hour to continue the meeting!"

A group of officials stood up and saluted, and left in a panic.

Wu Hanlin smiled and said, "Xiao Qi, you are finally here, alas, as soon as you came, you were so ashamed to see the jokes of our yamen." ”

Wang Qilin clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "The county guard is ashamed of his humble position, and he has just entered the city, so I will come to visit the county guard first to see if there are any instructions." ”

Wu Hanlin waved his hand and said: "There are not so many etiquettes in private, you don't have to call me Lord County Guard, just call me Mr. Ji Mi." ”

This is more interesting, Wu Hanlin's words are secretive.

There are many theories for literati words, the most common being to extend the meaning of the name, that is, the table word means the extension of the meaning of the name.

The most famous is Li Bai's character Taibai, which refers to Taibai Star, which is an extension of the meaning of Bai. Du Mu Zi Muzhi. Pastoral means grazing, which by extension explains the meaning of herding, and so on.

The word confidential is also an extension of the name Hanlin, which is an official position, and the official who wrote documents for the imperial court in the Tang Dynasty was called Hanlin, which was an ordinary official position.

In the period of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, he set up a bachelor of Hanlin, and this official position became the emperor's confidential secretary, referred to as the secret secretary.

Wang Qilin was as good as a stream, he was not too polite, so he hugged his fists again and said: "I have seen Mr. Confidential in my humble position." ”

He didn't think the word secret was very good, but it was definitely much better than the 'Zu'an' he gave to Lao Zhong.

Fortunately, it is impossible for anyone in the New Han Dynasty to know Zu An's true meaning this time, otherwise Zhong Wuzhi would definitely Tiangang give him to the Fa.

Wu Hanlin said: "I originally hoped that you would come over last month, but it turned out that this Qian Xiao had a big business in the county town, and he had a good relationship with Zhu Yuan, the copper captain who governed the Shangyuan Mansion, and Zhu Yuan personally came to me and wanted to leave Qian Xiao behind." ”

"But what am I leaving him for? If it weren't for the fear of the imperial court, I would have wanted to replace Zhu Yuan!"

"Speaking of Zhu Yuan, I want to say a few bad things about him in front of you, and you don't want to spread these words into his ears in the future. ”

Wu Hanlin said this to express a gesture of treating Wang Qilin as his own.

Wang Qilin naturally promised again and again.

Wu Hanlin said: "Zhu Yuan is good at everything, he is upright, I admire him, but he stays with zombies every day, I'm afraid his brain is ossified." ”

"I read the file of his trick case, alas, he will operate the zombie to start fighting, do you know what his idea is to solve the trick?"

Wang Qilin shook his head, he knew that he didn't dare to say it, it was a taboo in officialdom to talk about his boss behind his back!

Wu Hanlin didn't expect him to say, he replied to himself:

"That is to command zombies to kill the demons and monsters involved in the trickery, if one zombie can't be killed, send two zombies, and if two zombies can't be killed, send three zombies, I'm really!"

Speaking of this, he resolutely shut up, afraid that if he continued to talk about it, he would scold his mother.

Wang Qilin snickered, in fact, this is the most common case-handling method of Tingtianjian.

However, the Wu clan has been in Pingyang Mansion for more than 200 years and knows the importance of the truth.

In the past, the Wu clan wanted to control the Tingtianjian also had this partly reason, they were very dissatisfied with the Tingtianjian relying on brute force to solve the case, which affected the stability of their rule, so Tianwumen went to take over the work of the Tingtianjian.

Wu Hanlin changed the subject and said: "Qian Xiao still wants to stay in Shangyuan Mansion, but I know that there is a storm brewing in Shangyuan Mansion, and I am afraid that this storm is coming at my Wu someone." ”

"However, I have just come to the county seat, and it is inconvenient to mobilize my Wu clan disciples from Pingyang Mansion, otherwise it will inevitably be true, so this time I mainly have to rely on listening to the Heavenly Prison. ”

"This money is a good hand to make money, and it is not good to rely on him to investigate and solve the case, and when you return to the post office, you will know what mess he left for you. ”

He continued to introduce Wang Qilin, saying that Qian Xiao didn't want to leave, but three days ago he suddenly came to him to ask if there was chaos in Shangyuan Mansion about to break out.

Wu Hanlin was so angry when he heard this that he almost pinched Qian Xiao's neck on the spot, before he took office, he asked someone to pass on the situation of the underground turmoil in Shangyuan Mansion to Qian Xiao, but Qian Xiao didn't believe it, or he checked it but didn't find anything, and then threw it aside.

He told Qian Xiao the details again, and Qian Xiao believed Wang Qilin's words and happily handed over the post house in Shangyuan Mansion.

Wu Hanlin helped Wang Qilin in this matter, otherwise with Qian Xiao's relationship in the imperial court and Tingtian Prison, if he didn't want to leave Shangyuan Mansion, Wang Qilin would really have no problem.

Wang Qilin gained a lot from this meeting.

Wu Hanlin did treat him as his own, and even mentioned the Qinglong King in front of him, saying that he had met with the Qinglong King in private in the imperial capital, and he mentioned Wang Qilin to the Qinglong King at that time, and frankly said that he needed Wang Qilin to help him in order to stabilize his high position as a county guard.

In this way, Wang Qilin can enter and exit the yamen boldly with confidence, otherwise it is not good for him to deal too much with the imperial court officials as an official of the Heavenly Prison, and this is a very taboo thing within the Heavenly Prison.

Wu Hanlin didn't have any shelf in front of him, just like his elders.

Wang Qilin had a string in his heart.

Liu Bo was the same in front of him.

This is a group of standard politicians who make you feel like a spring breeze in front of you, and stab you in the back of your life.

The two talked together for half an hour, Wu Hanlin had been establishing the image of an elder in front of him, and he didn't even talk about business, and Wang Qilin was quite convinced.

In the end, the soup kitchen was about to reopen, Wu Hanlin took out a notebook and handed it to him: "Xiao Qi, it seems to be calm in the county town now, but in fact, there is an undercurrent surging, and when the remnants of the previous dynasty were defeated and left a lot of nails in the city, the nails will be very active this month." ”

"Shangyuan Mansion is a county town, there are many local sects and nobles, these people will go to Layue to worship their ancestors, and they will call the disciples and relatives outside, and it will definitely be very chaotic at that time. ”

"In addition, you have to be careful of a group of people, Huangquanguan!"

Wang Qilin raised his head violently: "Has Huangquanguan shown its head in Shangyuan Mansion?"

Wu Hanlin said: "There is no one on the surface, but I found a few people in secret. I have recorded their identities and relationships in this book, you go back and check carefully, and when the time comes, check and fill in the gaps, you should be able to deal with each other this time. ”

Wang Qilin nodded, carefully accepted the notebook and left.

As soon as he went out, someone handed him an invitation, and several officials pestered him to introduce himself, and then stuffed him with an invitation saying that he wanted to pick him up and wash the dust.

These people obviously have eyes and hands, and they have already inquired about the relationship between Wang Qilin and Wu Hanlin.

Even if you don't find out about them, you have to make a good friend of Wang Qilin, the young county iron captain, this is a handsome man that the old oilmen in the officialdom have never seen.

Wang Qilin took the invitation, wrote down their identities but declined the invitation, this time he came to Shangyuan Mansion with a mission, but he didn't have so much time to have fun.

After leaving the yamen, he returned to the post house.

A magnificent, biwa zhu yong building appeared in front of Wang Qilin.

A towering white wall, two vermilion lacquer gates, outside the door there is a person-high divine beast sitting on the left and right, the left is respectful, a gluttonous is opening its mouth to swallow the world, the right is humble, and a three-legged golden toad is closing its mouth and looking at all beings.

Seeing this, Wang Qilin was stunned, Qian Xiao was really bold, and directly put his plan to make money on the stone statue at the door.

Gluttony only enters but does not leave, so he opens his mouth and swallows money. Jin Toad is good at giving, so he keeps his mouth shut and doesn't pay.

In a word, the benefits are all taken up by the money!

The red lacquer door is two feet long, and a series of brass door nails are arranged in an orderly manner according to the direction of the nine palaces, each door nail is wiped bright, Wang Qilin stood in front and looked at it, and couldn't help but wipe his hair on the door nails.

After cleaning up his image, he pushed open the door and asked, "Why are you closing the door in broad daylight?

The layout of the post office is the same as that of the yamen, push open the door to the lobby, and there are two plaques in the lobby, on the left is 'Mirror Hanging', and on the right is 'Kill Demons'.

A small seal walked quickly, clasped his fists and saluted: "Lord Hui, it is windy today, close the door to avoid the wind." ”

Wang Qilin nodded and said, "Open the door, clean up the paper and pen in the lobby, the remaining tables and chairs are not afraid of the wind, and the door will be open day and night in the future." ”

Xiao Yin said: "Oh!"

The building next to the lobby is a large vestibule, which is used for discussing political affairs and checking the facts of the case, and then there are buildings, which are lined up and down.

The largest is the school field, and the back half of the yamen is the school field, surrounded by a circle of weapon racks, swords, guns, swords, halberds, and eighteen kinds of weapons.

There is a room next to it, Wang Qilin thought it was a lounge, and when he opened it, he saw that there were futons and shelves inside, and the dark room was fragrant and sandalwood.

Xiao Yin, who accompanied him, was called Lu Bocai, and introduced him: "The room here is the Scripture Pavilion, and there are some martial arts secrets in it, which were bought by Lord Qian at a high price in private, and he took them all away when he left." ”

Listening to the barbaric development of the Heavenly Prison, this will inevitably lead to a consequence, that is, there are many factions and mountains in all directions.

When the officials are transferred, they will take their descendants with them, after all, they are dealing with demons and monsters, and they are treacherous and dangerous, and they would rather not use people than use people who cannot be trusted.

In listening to the heavenly prison, the brotherhood of Pao Ze is no worse than that of the border army.

Listening to Lu Bocai's words, Wang Qilin nodded.

This is normal, people pay for their own money, and they must take it with them when they move.

And to be honest, he doesn't like the so-called cheats that Qian Xiao bought, there are now many flames under his creation furnace, and after refining by the beetle snake, there are five cyan flames alone, which can refine many high-level cheats and magic weapons.

The secret recipe refined by the Creation Furnace can only be used by himself, so he is going to get a little magic weapon and give it to his subordinates to use, so as to improve the strength of the post house.

The importance of the furnace is not the same as it was in the past, and he regarded the furnace as his armory.

Wang Qilin turned the entire post office around, and couldn't help but sigh: Although he was listening to the promotion of the Heavenly Prison all the way, the grade change of this residence was like a wavy line.

From the humble Fulong Township Post House to the atmospheric Jixiang County Post House, to the dilapidated Pingyang Mansion Post House, and now the luxurious Shangyuan Mansion Post Office, it is very layered.

Xu Da was picking a room and came over to ask Lu Bocai for help: "Spinach, spinach, go with the uncle." ”

Lu Bocai said helplessly: "Back to Lord Xu, the humble name is Lu Bocai, not spinach." ”

Xu Dadao: "Oh, green spinach?"

Lu Bocai decisively clenched his fists and said, "My lord, what are you looking for spinach?"

Xu Da hugged his shoulders and smiled: "Don't be so angry, what is your name, just call me Xu Ye!"

Lu Bocai insisted on his ethics and smiled politely and politely: "My lord, you are laughing, the lowly position is different from you, how dare you call you at will?"

Xu Dadao: "Then you can call me uncle." ”

Lu Bocai decisively changed his words and asked: "Xu Ye, you are really humorous, it is really fortunate to fight side by side with a good man like Xu Ye in the future!"

"No later, you can do it now," Xu Da squeezed his eyes at him, "Go to the uncle's room, the uncle has a treasure for you." ”

Lu Bocai threw a glance at Wang Qilin for help, but unfortunately Wang Qilin didn't see it.

Suisui Lady has set up a shop on the opposite side of the post house again, this time she has an elegant teahouse, and she will not do any reconstruction, and she will open the door and prepare for business after cleaning up.

When Wang Qilin walked in, he saw an old man in a long shirt talking to Suisui Niangzi in front of the counter, Bao Da and Hu Tu, one leaning against the door, the other sitting under the tea table and holding his chin with his hand, watching the excitement with relish.

When he arrived, he happened to hear the old man say: "The winter night is cold, the incense and ink turn into ice, the old man can't bear to sigh, I don't know if the little lady is interested in entering my study and adding fragrance to my red sleeves?"

Suisui Niangzi asked: "The old master and his wife are still there, is this to marry a slave family and go back to be a child?"

The old man smiled and said: "Yes, in the past, there was a beautiful talk about Mr. Dongpo's friend Zhang Xian's 'a pear flower pressing a begonia', and today you and I are married, and I am afraid that it will also be a beautiful talk in this county in the future." ”

Wang Qilin immediately exploded when he heard that 'it will be a beautiful talk in the future', the old man looked very ugly, and he thought it was very beautiful.

Suisui Niangzi asked with a smile: "How much dowry did the old gentleman give to the slave family?"

The old man said calmly: "The old man has already inquired, the little lady has no father, no mother, no brothers and sisters, but lives alone, so who can the old man give more dowry?

Suisui Lady asked, "So you don't give a dowry?"

The old man smiled and said: "The red makeup is tied with concentric knots, the green trees are blooming and the flowers are tilian;

Suisui Niangzi looked at him with pity and said, "This limerick poem is good, but you are going to be miserable." ”

The old man asked blankly, "What do you mean?"

A big hand clasped his shoulder from behind, and asked coldly, "Does the old cow still want to eat tender grass?"

There was also a malicious tone and said: "Seventh master, don't insult the cow, this is called the old pig and still want to arch the little cabbage?"
