Records of the King of Xin'an County

Chapter 194 Getting Along with Colleagues

Although Wang Zixian had already met those small officials from Hucao before, and he had received their overtures on the surface, but he would not reject the kindness of Zhao County Lieutenant.This person is Hu Cao's predecessor, Shangfeng, who has been with the small officials for several years, and has his own majesty and connections.If he can say a few good words, it will be more convenient for him to act in the future.

Of course, Wang Zixian also has his own way of getting along with his subordinates, sooner or later he will have to spend some time to completely use these petty officials for his own use.After all, they looked like insignificant foreign officials, but in terms of their familiarity with Wannian County affairs, and even their familiarity with gossip in private, no one could match them.Many foreign officials are descendants of their fathers, and the experience accumulated from generation to generation cannot be underestimated.

Because of Zhao Xianwei's generous help, Wang Zixian simply invited him to sit in a wine shop in the nearby Lifang after he left the Yamen.County Captain Zhao did not refuse, but said that he would call Cangcao County Captain Qian who had a good relationship with him: "He has always been a lover of wine, and finally he has the opportunity to satisfy his hunger, so we cannot do without him."

In the future, when the prince presented this household Cao, he would deal with Qian Xianwei more often, so he readily accepted Zhao County Lieutenant's kindness.He even crossed his hands and made a cross-hand salute: "Brother Zhao has helped me a lot, and I will definitely remember it in my heart." No matter if this move was unintentional or intentional, at least he will be more at home in Wannian County.

"You and I are colleagues, so why be so polite?" Zhao Xianwei said, and went to look for Qian Xianwei with a smile.

Wang Zixian turned around and wanted to go back to Mr. Cao's house, when he raised his eyes, he saw the corner of the corridor not far away, and then turned to County Captain He.He then smiled slightly and nodded his head in greeting, but County Captain He just looked at him from afar, frowning in silence.

Soon it was time to go to the Yamen, Wang Zixian summoned all the servants of Hucao, and went to the wine shop for a few drinks together.However, after arriving at the wine shop, he sat alone in the private room with Zhao Xianwei and Qian Xianwei, while the small officials were in another room.During the dinner, without mentioning the exchange of cups and cups, Zhao Xianwei and Qian Xianwei also told him something about Wei County Magistrate and Chen County Cheng, which made him understand these two senior officials a little bit better.

"Chen Shaofu (the county magistrate) is indeed a bit lonely in temperament, but he is a good person. If he completes his official duties with all his heart and does not make any mistakes, he is not difficult to get along with. Have you ever seen a young man before?" Mingfu (county magistrate) only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and pushes everything to Liucao. When Mingfu (county magistrate) asks about everything, he always asks three questions... Sigh, at that time, we really called every day should not, and the land and the earth are not right. Ling. After a long time, he was transferred to be a county magistrate outside Beijing, and Chen Shaofu is already very good in our opinion."

"Wei Mingfu (county magistrate) is also soft-tempered like a dough ball. He has always been kind and friendly. There is a bit of indifference between him and Chen Shaofu. It is not like the usual trust between Mingfu and Shaofu. It is probably because of the aristocratic family. Children and children from poor families—" After drinking a few glasses of wine, County Captain Qian opened up the chatterbox, talking endlessly.However, when he said this, he seemed to suddenly remember that the young Wang Xianwei in front of him was also a descendant of a family, so he couldn't help laughing embarrassingly, "Don't blame for a momentary slip of the tongue, don't blame."

"Brother Qian, you don't need to be cautious, you can drink when you want, and talk when you want to talk." Wang Zixian raised his glass and said, "I have always liked straightforward people like Brother Zhao and Brother Qian, and they are very happy to get along with. Come. Come, come, let's win!!"

"Drink wins!!" Qian Xianwei and Zhao Xianwei looked at each other and smiled, relaxed a little more, and drank it down in one gulp.

What they drank today was the best wine from the Western Regions. If it wasn't for this young man who was so thoughtful, he patted his chest and said that he was a treat, so that they could drink it with an open mind, how could they drink so happily? !The salary of Jingxian Lieutenant is not low, but they still have to support their families and plan for the future. With those meager salaries, they don't have the opportunity to drink such good wine on weekdays!

Therefore, the prince presented Wang Zhiyuan, and instantly left a "bright" image in the hearts of the two of them.Many descendants of aristocratic families don't care about money, but it is quite rare to be willing to make friends with such unknown and humble people.What's more, a top family such as the Langya Wang family can't help being awe-inspiring just by mentioning it, but this Wang Langjun has no self-esteem at all?

In the imperial decree, the etiquette that officials should abide by also includes not drinking and having fun outside.Otherwise, if those supervisory censors are more serious, they will be impeached to shame.However, in order to deal with these censors, the low-ranking officials also came up with a way-to change the robes on their bodies and go out to drink in ordinary clothes.There are at least a thousand low-ranking officials in central Beijing. Who would be able to recognize them if they changed their robes and official uniforms?

Of course, Wang Zixian is no exception.However, although they had already changed out of their robes, they were not indulging in fine wine.Only an hour later, County Captain Zhao and County Captain Qian said goodbye and left.Wang Zixian asked the shopkeeper to give each of them a jar of wine, and packed some exquisite snacks, etc., and personally sent them away.

Then, he came to the private room of the petty officials next door, drank a few glasses of wine with them, and broke up happily.At least for the small officials, this young county lieutenant is kind and kind, and treats them with rare closeness.As a result, after a drink, the relationship between them seemed to be much closer, and their conversations became more casual.

After his colleagues left, Wang Zixian sat alone in the private room and drank some hangover tea to let go of the alcohol.This was the first day of his official official career, and he didn't want to go to Prince Pu's mansion to meet Li Hui with the smell of alcohol all over his body.Of course, even going back to the vine garden to meet Mr. Song and his younger brother He Cheng would not be in the right time.

Cao Silang, who had been guarding outside the whole time, also relieved his hunger, and was drinking happily with the wine jar, when he saw the shopkeeper walking over with a wry smile, and whispered to him a few words.After hearing this, he didn't care about drinking anymore, and immediately went to the private room to report.

"Ah Lang, Sun Dalang is in the courtyard behind the restaurant, saying he has something important to report." Yes, this restaurant is one of Sun Rong's properties.The shopkeepers and staff in the restaurant are also their own people, and they are all parts trained by adults.They looked thin and thin like ordinary people, they didn't look like big bearded men, and they were suitable for this kind of work of listening to news.

"Important matter?" Wang Zixian raised his eyebrows, "Is there any urgent matter that is urgent?" He rarely met Sun Rong and Sun Jinniang, and usually only passed on news through the exchanges.If it weren't for the extremely urgent matter, Sun Rong wouldn't have taken the risk to find it temporarily.However, when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that nothing urgent had happened recently. Could it be that he had overlooked something?

Of course, whether it is important or not, you will know as soon as you hear it.Therefore, Wang Zixian and Cao Silang followed the store owner to the backyard of the restaurant along the secret passage.Sun Rong was waiting anxiously in the main room. When he saw him coming, he said straight away, "Ah Lang, the secret game of Princess Anxing's mansion has been broken. In the end, she only sent the news that she was in danger, and there was no whereabouts. She originally She has been working as a rough servant in the kitchen, and the news is all done quietly through the kitchen purchases. Now the purchasers only know that she is no longer in the kitchen."

"Not in the kitchen, maybe he went to another place. And don't worry, check carefully the nearest... Is there any servant to deal with in Princess Anxing's mansion." Wang Zixian said with a frown.When dealing with the tricks arranged by others, Princess Anxing usually kills them, and occasionally tortures them.However, it has always been possible to find out who died in the princess mansion.Unless necessary, it is impossible for the princess mansion to destroy the appearance and physical marks of the servants.

"I persuaded Jinniang in the same way, but for some reason, that girl suddenly became stubborn. She said that she had always been friends with that dark chessman named A Yuan, and the two had made an appointment to meet each other in the future. We spend our days together peacefully. Now that something happened to Ah Yuan, she must not sit idly by—"

Speaking of this, Sun Rong's face turned dark, as if there were still some things he couldn't say anymore.After holding back for a long while, he could only say with a bitter face: "Anyway, she doesn't want to listen to my advice, and has been wholeheartedly preparing to enter the mansion of Princess Anxing...but it's a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair, how can it be so easy to enter? I, I have only one younger sister left, and I still want to see her marry happily... How can I just watch her die?"

"..." Wang Zixian frowned, "It's just a little lady's angry words, why do you care so much?" Xu was influenced by him and Li Hui, it sounded very ordinary words, which made Sun Rong think a little more point.Of course, since men can like men, it is not uncommon for women to like women.However, this should be Jinlan's righteousness, and it would be unfounded to misinterpret it too much.

"You tell Jinniang, just talk about the matter of Princess Anxing's mansion and wait and see for a few days, and wait for the news to be confirmed before mentioning other things. I have something else to entrust to her, let her participate in more banquets, and continue to inquire among the female relatives News. I would like to know what the second wife of the Yang family has been up to lately. From their actions, it may be possible to infer what Concubine Yang Xian plans to do next. Perhaps, it can also be inferred whether the current relationship between Princess Anxing and Concubine Yang Xian is good or bad. This matter is extremely urgent and must be done by her, and she must try her best to complete it."

Sun Rong hastily agreed, and then said worriedly: "Ah Lang, seeing that Jinniang has reached the age to get married, I think maybe it's because she has too little contact with the young gentleman, so she has a confused mind. What does A Lang know? A young man with a good character? If you look at each other so well, you might be able to be my sister-in-law in the future?"

"It's just a young man with a good character, but he is not worthy of Jinniang." Wang Zixian said unhurriedly, "Don't worry, I have always regarded her as my younger sister, and I will definitely pay more attention to her. If she is not good enough I will definitely not agree to my generation asking to marry Jinniang. Don't mess up your position, everything depends on whether Jinniang will live comfortably in the future."

"Ah Lang is right..." Sun Rong nodded repeatedly.

"Don't just focus on Jinniang. Seeing that you are about to reach the crown, if you don't settle the marriage earlier, will you still wait for the official media to come and match you with a lady at will?" Wang Zixian suddenly felt that, as a A conscientious master, he really has too many affairs to manage.Originally, this kind of marriage should be handled by the "wife", why should he come to ask?It's a pity that his family's "wife" is too busy, even if he wants to intervene in the other party's internal affairs, he has no chance.

Hearing this, Sun Rong blushed, chattered for a long time, and then said, "I... I have already entrusted the marriage to Mother Fu. Mother Fu is the elder, so it should be Mother Fu who decides... Besides, if she doesn't know the truth People, I can't live together with peace of mind." The implication is that he has already taken a fancy to his family, and quietly entrusted his old mother, A Nuo, to marry him.

My own family, I am talking about the little ladies of the Buqu family.These little ladies were brought up by the old Fu Mu Anuo. They have a straightforward personality, both literate and good at martial arts, and they are many times stronger than ordinary little ladies.The dark chess player mentioned just now, A Yuan, is one of them.

It's just that, in the family following his trilogy, there are mostly gentlemen, and young ladies are quite rare, and they are all the darlings of old Fu Mu Anuo.In many parts, there are young ladies who secretly like it, but they have not yet won the favor of the beautiful lady, so they dare not act rashly.Now Rong Sun has cleverly entrusted her old mother, Anuo, and is about to "take food from the tiger's mouth", and she doesn't know how the rest of the unmarried trilogy will feel.

Sure enough, clever people do everything cleverly, and——

Wang Zixian glanced at Cao Silang and stared at him with tiger eyes: If you are not smart enough, you are doomed to be one step behind even in marrying a wife.

At this time, Cao Silang could no longer care about his own A-lang's presence, and could no longer restrain his horror: "You... you, tell me! Who is it that you are looking for?! If... if... I will be with you from now on Cut off the gown!!"

"What a bastard who is obsessed with sex!" Sun Rong couldn't help laughing and scolding, "Don't worry! Who is hiding in your heart, how can I not know? I have a crush on someone else!! However, even if I don't look It doesn't mean that other people won't be tempted! You'd better hurry up and get married, get married earlier!"

Immediately, Cao Silang uttered an "ow", and rushed to Wang Zixian, his eyes sparkling: "Ah Lang is the one who decides!"

"..." Such a burly, bearded man with sparkling eyes was really unbearable to look at.Wang Zixian couldn't help turning his face away, and sighed: "Go back and tell Mother Fu that she will make the decision for you."

Cao Silang burst out laughing with joy.
