Master Luo Cao

The girl's name is Cuiying'er, and she is the head of the only brothel in the nearby ten miles and eight townships. The daring Deng Tuzi ventured to kiss Fangze.Originally, I had an appointment with Yuanwai from the west of the city today to spend a good night together, but the new county magistrate suddenly arrived. Hearing that she was young and handsome, Cui Yinger did not hesitate to renew the appointment with Yuanwai, holding a beating heart , followed Butler Liu into the house of the county magistrate.

At first, I suspected that the rumors were false, but now I saw that the county magistrate really had a good-looking appearance, which was very different from those rough and reckless men. Cui Yinger was overjoyed, she covered her mouth and gave a "giggle" smile, she was dumbfounded The little county magistrate waved and said, "Why are you standing there so stupidly, sir? Why don't you come here soon?"

The little county magistrate blushed and his chest heaved violently, apparently unable to hold back anymore, Cui Yinger was about to push harder, but the little county magistrate suddenly turned around and ran away, shouting: "Come on!"

People in Jiuhe County live under the pressure of bandits and dare not go out of the county at will. The land in the county is barren and they cannot grow too many fruits and vegetables.The new county magistrate has only been in office for three days, and many rumors about him have spread all over the streets.

Not long after Kou Luoche went down the mountain and entered the county, the story of the cold-faced Qingtian magistrate Fu angrily scolding the prostitute Cuiyinger had already played in his ears three times. There was a sound.Trying hard to hold back his smile, he pushed away the crowd in front of him. Kou Luoche raised his hand and tore off the notice that said he was recruiting a master. How to go?"

The notice stated that the county government was recruiting a master due to insufficient manpower, but it was actually a lie.The Jiuhe county government is dilapidated and lacks everything, except that there are too many people.Fu Yunshu asked: "Why are there so many yamen servants in my county?" They are almost comparable to the team of the governor of the capital.

Zhao Ciji replied: "Because there are bandits entrenched on Jindiao Mountain outside the county, it is inevitable that they sneak into the county government office and make trouble at night. The lower officials arrange people to watch the night in the county every night, in groups of three, and in the middle of the night five groups. In the second half of the night, the five teams took turns patrolling, so they recruited so many yamen servants."

Looking at the salary payment on the ledger, Fu Yunshu felt heartbroken as if being cut by a blunt knife, but the money was unavoidable, so he could only pretend to be calm and nodded, saying: "Although there are many yamen servants, my county's study room is only There are Xu Xiancheng and Zheng Zhuzhu, they each perform their own duties, it is obviously not appropriate to transfer them again, I am new here, and I am short of someone to help take care of me, so why not hire another master, and the salary will be paid by me, What do you two think?"

Xu Meng thought to himself, this is because the boss doesn't trust him and wants to plant another confidant, and he is thinking about how to speak so that the little county magistrate can dispel this idea, but Zhao Ciji has already taken the first step to show his loyalty, saying: "Since the county magistrate needs it, I have no reason to wait."

Xu Meng secretly gave Zhao Ciji a cold look, and had no choice but to follow suit: "It's not too late, why don't you write a notice now as an official, and recruit talents for your lord."

Fu Yunshu smiled and said, "Very good."

Soon Fu Yunshu couldn't laugh anymore.

The county government office is full of crooked melons and cracked dates. He originally thought it was because of the poor taste of Xu and Zhao. Fu Yunshu finally understood that the county magistrate and magistrate had tried their best.

Holding his forehead and taking a deep breath, Fu Yunshu comforted himself, even though he was born in a poor family, maybe he is talented, but it's hard to say, a person can't be judged by his appearance.So he smiled and said softly: "This county can't fully know the level and depth of everyone present here. Why don't we use articles to judge the outcome. I will propose a topic, and everyone will express their opinions. Name the title and suppress the bandits."

Kou Luoche came late, so he could only sit at the end. Looking up, he could only see the little county magistrate sitting on top of the courtroom. His eyebrows, eyes, lips and nose could not be seen clearly. Nor did he see himself.

So much the better.

Kou Luoche picked up a pen and wrote the word "bandit suppression" on the rice paper, suddenly smiled, when it comes to bandit suppression, I am afraid that no one knows the details of Qunying Village better than himself, without thinking too much, he just spit out thousands of words, When the pen was finished, Kou Luoche dried the ink on the paper, quietly raised his eyes and looked forward, the little county magistrate was still sitting upright, but he tapped and tapped his head from time to time, obviously he was so bored that he was about to fall asleep .

Kou Luoche got up to hand in the paper, he handed in neither too early nor too late, and he got out of the county office amidst the crowd, almost no one noticed.

When the last person in the county office finished handing in the papers, Zhao Ciji helped Fu Yunshu organize a stack of papers, and said, "Just now I caught a glimpse of a young man who is handsome and elegant, but I don't know how talented he is."

Hearing that it was a "handsome young man", Fu Yunshu immediately thought of Kou Luoche, most of the drowsiness dissipated immediately, he raised his head and looked around, "Where is he?"

Zhao Ciji said, "I've already left."

Thinking of Kou Luoche saying that he was only staying in Jiuhe County for the time being, maybe he has gone far away now, Fu Yunshu felt lost for no reason, and only said: "That's fine."

Holding the papers and coming to the study room, Fu Yunshu made a rough count, and there were more than a hundred people who came this time.He couldn't help feeling a little hopeful in his heart, wondering if there would be someone with amazing talent among the hundreds of people, so he sat down immediately and started to review the papers.

At this time, Kou Luoche had already returned to the inn, took off his outer shirt, leaned on the imperial concubine's couch with a book in his hand, and read it one by one.There was a knock on the door outside the house, Xiaoer said outside: "My lord, I have brought you dinner."

Kou Luoqi stood up, put the book upside down, and said, "Come in."

Xiao Er pushed the door open, carrying a food box in his hand, put it on the table and opened the lid, and laid out four dishes. Kou Luoqi leaned over to have a look, fish brain tofu, loofah green beans, bean drum flounder, boiled cabbage, He smiled and said, "Today's dishes are quite novel."

Xiaoer said: "Master, you don't know, these four dishes are the treatment of the county magistrate."

Few people know that the largest inn in Jiuhe County is actually owned by Qunyingzhai. When Kou Luoche entered the county, he usually lived here. The shopkeeper and Xiaoer were his effective subordinates. Xiao Er's eyes were shining brightly, obviously he had a lot of gossip and wanted to confide, Kou Luoche lifted the corner of his robe, sat down on the stool, took a chopstick of boiling water and cabbage into his mouth, and said, "What do you say?"

Xiao Er vividly recounted what he had heard about the night when Fu County Magistrate first entered the mansion. Of course, he did not skip the part where Fu Qingtian was indifferent to the beauty in front of the iron face. The follow-up, "Cuiying'er was sent back to Houhou Tower overnight, and she cried for an hour, but I heard that the little county magistrate hid in the study by herself with the quilt in her arms, pursing her mouth, as if she was so wronged that she wanted to cry too Already!"

Kou Luoche didn't hold back, he laughed all of a sudden, he coughed in a disguised way, and said: "You can inquire about these things clearly."

Xiaoer said: "As you said, the village master, knowing yourself and the enemy is invincible in a hundred battles."

"Well," Kou Luoche nodded, and said: "Then I know now, the little county magistrate is a crybaby." After a pause, he said to Xiaoer: "You go down first, you don't have to wait, I will leave tomorrow Got to go."

Xiaoer wondered: "Master, don't you wait for the little county magistrate to come to you?"

Kou Luoche shook his head with a smile and said, "I have my own plans."

Kou Luoche was eating and drinking leisurely in that room, while Fu Yunshu in this room was already battered and his forehead was as big as a bucket, the bandits in Jiuhe County were rampant, and the people in Jiuhe County were also very curious.

A heroic statement written by a strong man - Send me alone to kill all the dogs and thieves in the world!

Fu Yunshu silently moved the paper aside, thinking that I don't need to send you to kill now, and after your heroic sacrifice, I will record your glorious funeral in the county annals.

The next piece of paper is more detailed, densely packed with a whole page of petty lowercase letters, the whole content can be summed up in two words "Zhaoan". The yamen servants have deep distrust, and Fu Yunshu can almost see through the words a wimpy little old man tremblingly writing: If you can turn the enemy into yourself, it will be the luck of Jiuhe, the luck of Jiangbei.

Fu Yunshu recalled the virtues of the bandits he had seen, and silently threw the paper on the ground.

There is another person who is very thoughtful. He suggested that Fu Yunshu follow the example of the ancients and use beauty tricks to send Cuiyinger, the oiran of the county, to Hai Dongqing, the leader of Qunying Village, to seduce him, confuse him, and make him degenerate. At the same time, we should not let the military commander Qingyanzi go, we should seduce him together, make Haidongqing and Qingyanzi turn against each other, and wait for the civil strife in Yingzhai, the county magistrate can take advantage of the situation and send troops to attack Yingzui Cliff. .

Fu Yunshu looked at this paper, as if he was in a grandstand, and a good show of emperors and beauties was being played on the stage.The bandit leader Hai Dongqing is Wu Wang Fucha, Cuiyinger is the beauty Xi Shi, and he is that Goujian, desperate to restore the country.It's a pity that this play is wonderful, and it has been widely sung. Hai Dongqing should have seen it when he has nothing to do. A good show.

He put the playbook aside and unfolded the next one.

The content of the article has not yet caught the eye, but Fu Yunshu's eyes are brightened by the handwriting that flows like clouds and flowing water.He stayed up late to read the examination papers, and saw that the night was already deep, the moon was bright outside the house, the stars were sparse, insects were singing, the candlestick beside him crackled softly, and the supper brought by the servants was put aside, Fu Yunshu finished reading the volume , picked up a cake in a trance, and didn't realize that the cake was completely cold until he took a bite.

Even if this volume is placed in the imperial examination, it can be regarded as a rare masterpiece, not to mention that compared with the works in front of me, the eyes that have been tortured in the middle of the night flickered. Fu Yunshu was almost moved when he encountered this Tsinghua article. About to shed tears, my eyes quickly moved to the end of the article, and I saw the author's name——

Kou Luoqi.
