Cui Jingxing still had an unhappy expression on his face. He was silent for a while, then nodded his head, "The defense of the posthouse must be strengthened."

"What your lord said is true." The master secretary smiled repeatedly, and left after comforting Cui Jingxing.

Cui Jingxing in Linhe County is only responsible for supervision, not for trial of cases.He only needs to wait for Meng Yin to investigate the results, and then interrogate together.

Corruption cases are not easy to investigate, and if you are not careful, you will startle them. Meng Yin has to deal with people in Linhe County constantly. The investigation of this case cannot be completed in a day or two.Cui Jingxing was bored sitting in the posthouse, so he wanted to go out for a walk.

When the official who guarded the post heard about it, he immediately went to inform the master.The master hurriedly came over and took Cui Jingxing to visit Linhe County.

Cui Jingxing's legs and feet are not good, he rested after walking for a while, he looked at the master book, "what are you always following me for?"

The director laughed and said, "My lord is new here, so I can guide you here."

Cui Jingxing didn't speak anymore, he came to a teahouse, ordered a pot of tea and sat down.

The master secretary sat across from him, and when he saw him looking over, he grinned.

Cui Jingxing was speechless. Is this person here to monitor him?

Xiao Er glanced at the master book, and tremblingly put the teapot on the table. After a while, all the people in the teahouse dispersed.

Cui Jingxing scanned around, took a sip of tea as if nothing had happened, then took out a book from his sleeve, and began to read it slowly.

The chief secretary stared at it for an hour, finally rubbed his sour eyes, and looked for topics with a smile, "My lord is knowledgeable and talented, and I admire you."

Cui Jingxing said: "If you admire it, why not come and study with me."

The master turned his eyes and said: "My lord, there are many other scenery in Linhe County, don't you want to go and see them?"

"I just like reading."

The master book was annoyed, he only likes to collect antiques on weekdays, but he doesn't like to collect ancient books.But he couldn't just sit like this all the time. After thinking for a while, he said, "Master, speaking of it, you and Linhe County really hit it off. Have you heard of the name of Linhe County before?"

Cui Jingxing put down his book and looked up at him.

Seeing that Cui Jingxing was interested, the master continued to smile and said: "During the previous dynasty, Linhe County was the fiefdom of a prince, and that prince also liked reading as much as you, and held many literary and book gatherings. The only copies written are comparable to those of the former imperial court."

Cui Jingxing said: "It can't be seen." Today's Linhe County is very dilapidated.

The master laughed and said: "It's been decades. After the prince passed away, most of the classics were buried in the tomb. After a few years, the situation caught up with the turmoil, and Linhe County gradually declined. These things It is recorded in the county annals, do you want to read it, my lord?"

Cui Jingxing thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."

"Then I will send the county chronicle to the post."

"it is good."

Cui Jingxing sat for a while and then went back to the post to rest, and the master went to the county government to look for the county magistrate.

"Master." Cui En poured hot water for Cui Jingxing and took off his coat for him.

Cui Jingxing waved his hands, squeezed his brows and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

Cui En said: "Master Master has been monitoring the young master?"

Cui Jingxing nodded slightly.

"Could it be that Linhe County is really suspected of corruption from top to bottom?"

Cui Jingxing opened his eyes, "Not necessarily. This director doesn't seem to be spying on me, but seems to be flattering me, maybe it's just a flattering official who wants to climb up."

Cui En saw that Cui Jingxing looked tired, so he went to bring over the soup that had just been boiled, and happened to meet the master who was delivering the county chronicles, and he only entered after the other party left.

Cui Jingxing flipped through the county chronicles, stopped on one page, and sat quietly for a long time, until Cui En repeatedly reminded him that the soup was going to be cold, then he came back to his senses.

Cui Jingxing picked up the soup bowl, his eyes stopped on the few lines recorded in the book about the prince's tomb, and he suddenly said, "Uncle Cui, do you know anyone who digs holes and fights?"

Cui En looked at Cui Jingxing in astonishment, "Young master, this kind of thing is devoid of conscience, you can't touch it if you want to cut off your children and grandchildren."

Cui Jingxing smiled and said: "Just talk about it on a sudden whim." He put down the soup bowl, closed the county chronicle, and did not mention this matter again.

In the capital, Mu Shufeng had just punished two incompetent officials. He counted the days with his fingers, and Cui Jingxing had been gone for almost half a month. "How is Linhe County?"

An official stood below him, "There was nothing wrong with the disaster relief. As for the corruption case, Mr. Meng did not send back any news."

Mu Shufeng knew Meng Yin's ability to handle affairs, so he was not worried about it. He wanted to ask Cui Jingxing, but he didn't ask in the end.

Fortunately, the official turned his head and immediately thought of the "Supervisor" who had a close friendship with Mu Shufeng. This must be what Master Mu wanted to ask, so he smiled calmly: "Master Cui should be fine, too. It's just that he is only accompanied by a helpless domestic servant, and that servant is getting old, so I'm afraid he might not be able to take good care of him at times. Why don't you send someone to Linhe County as an official to inquire about the progress of the investigation? ?”

Cui En is indeed a considerate and careful housekeeper, but after all, he has no martial arts, so he might not be able to take care of Cui Jingxing when he is in danger.Mu Shufeng was silent for a moment but said, "No need."

The official didn't dare to ask, so he smiled and said, "Yes."

That night, when Cui Jingxing was about to fall asleep, a gust of wind suddenly blew open the window.

A white feathered bird landed on the table.

Cui Jingxing looked at the green leaves of grass on the white-feathered bird's head, stood still for a moment, and stretched out his hands to pick them off, but the grass seemed to grow on the head of the little bird and he couldn't pull it off, so he had no choice but to let go.

The moment he let go, the blade of grass curled up tremblingly, disrespectful...extremely rude!

Cui Jingxing was extremely puzzled, "What kind of bird is this?" The one with long grass on its head.

The little bird flew to the top of Cui Jingxing's head, planed on his head, lowered his head and put the blade of grass in the "hole" that had just been planed, and then flew away.

Cui Jingxing poked and poked his head, but nothing came out, so he had to go to sleep.

Early the next morning, when Cui Jingxing was eating, Cui En, who was opposite him, looked at him frequently.

"Uncle Cui, what's wrong?"

Cui En shook his head, "I always feel that the young master's head is covered with a blade of grass, but upon closer inspection, there is nothing there." Just now he saw a hint of green on Cui Jingxing's temples, but when he took a closer look, there was nothing there.

Cui Jingxing paused, put down his chopsticks, and scratched his hair.

Cao Zizi touched Cui Jingxing's fingertips and "slapped" him, I'll cover you.

Cui Jingxing put his fingers together to pinch, and the grass leaves went deep into his hair and disappeared.

"..." Cui Jingxing was stunned, his heart went blank, and after a while, he suddenly realized that there might really be monsters in this world.
