That little fly

Shufu government office.

"Du Guozhong has met Mr. Lu."

"Where is there, I ask Mr. Du to be well. Mr. Du, you and I are on the same level, so you don't need these vain gifts. Is there anything I can do for you?" The magistrate muttered in his heart, you are the Jinwu guard next to the emperor, who would dare to provoke you? ah?The inexplicable visit to my remote Shufu government office is definitely not to greet Lu Xingzhi.

"Lord Lu, the next official has an order, so let's get straight to the point. I don't know if Master Lu has received a notice about the recent exchange of officials?"

"Yes. The county magistrate of Xiongshan County here has a place for exchange. The previous county magistrate has resigned, and the next official is waiting for the new magistrate of Xiongshan County to take office."

"Lord Lu, this is the appointment of the new county magistrate of Xiongshan County, please look over it."

After seeing it, the magistrate was puzzled, "Excuse me..."

"It's like this. Two groups of Jinwu Guards were ordered by the sage to investigate a matter in Xiongshan County. The new county magistrate is assisting us not to escape, so we can't report to Lord Lu immediately. The new county magistrate is charged with a crime..."

"What's the matter, Mr. Du is too polite. Doing errands for the government is what I and other courtiers should do...I wonder if there is anyone I can help you with?"

"This matter is confidential. I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, but I have to offend you. The Holy One said:"

The magistrate hurriedly stood up and saluted, listening solemnly.

"The investigation of Zixiongshan County is an imperial secret. During the investigation process, no publicity is allowed, and no disturbance to the people is allowed. All situations are directly reported to the central cabinet, and non-relevant personnel are not allowed to inquire without authorization. Give Wuyou Jiaban Jinwuwei a golden sword, and make an immediate decision The power. Anyone who leaks the wind will be cut."

Sending away the plague god, the magistrate wiped off his sweat, mother, what kind of confidential matter is this, making such a big show?Don't ask if you don't ask for it.The magistrate completely stopped his plan to hand out gossip notes to the imperial capital.When I went back to the inner hall, I couldn't help but think that the newly appointed magistrate of Xiongshan County was too hard-working, and he encountered such a thing just after being communicated.A small county magistrate of the seventh grade sesame met a class of Jin Wuwei who was handling cases on the ground, so he had to serve these uncles every day like a grandson?

The hard-working seventh-rank sesame magistrate of Xiongshan County stayed in Shuiyinzhuang and never left.

Ji Zhao asked Jin Wuwei to help bring the county chronicles and account books here from the county government, instead of going to the county government to sit in court in person.The general affairs of a county are not too much, but it is said that there is a lot less. Xiongshan County is really a small county that can’t get enough to eat and starve to death, as it is known in previous investigations. Inertia has been formed.In contrast, Shuiyinzhuang and Feitian'er required Ji Zhao to spend more thought and energy.

The private gossip about the owner of Shui Zhuang's family is going on...

"The proprietor seldom takes people with him when he goes out...Who is busy with the farm and has no shortage of manpower? How can he enjoy himself for two or three months as soon as he goes out? It seems that the two tigers of the old Sun's family have followed him twice?"

"I can't read...Anyway, the owner brings back books. Our owner is very knowledgeable..."

"Who doesn't have curiosity? But the state has state laws, the family has family rules, people can't be dissatisfied, and the owner is tolerant, so you can't put your nose on the face, right? The yard is a forbidden area, let alone what the owner said in advance. Don’t even say anything, draw a circle so that you are not allowed to get out of the circle, then you dare not listen?!”

"Broken legs! It's not ambiguous at all. I'm in prison. After that happened, who would dare to do it again? Don't even dare to look at it. Baizheyuan, listen to the name given by the owner. Baizhe, it is A hundred bones are discounted..."

This is the content of gossip among men.

"Young Master... Uh, I'm referring to the owner of the estate. He came back from a tour outside and brought his new wife in."

"The master looks so good-looking, and the family is rich, how can there be a woman who can match him... Hey, there are no pots and lids in the world. Madam looks like a fairy."

"Talented woman? Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? Those of us women don't understand. Anyway, my wife is a virtuous person. Look at the inside and outside of this village. Hundreds of households are running smoothly..."

"Madam is amazing... I don't understand? Tsk tsk tsk, the owner of the villa has only one son after more than ten years of marriage. The madam is so tight about the door that he doesn't even have a housemate, even when the madam is pregnant with the young master..."

This is gossip between mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

"The owner is actually quite miserable. The old lady died young, and the owner has been in charge since the age of seven. The old owner is a careless person."

"Although the old owner doesn't care about things, there are also university students who ask about it. They are Jinshi, master Jinshi, do you know? Our master has helped the county magistrate settle several unjust cases."

"No, the old lady left early, and the master was really sad. Later, when the young master became an adult, the master became a monk. He went to practice Taoism on the mountain."

"I don't know the specific view. The young master didn't ask to see it when he went to visit. There has been no news for many years..."

This is the gossip content of the older generation of dealers.

Because Ji Zhao's investigation strategy changed, the privacy of the three generations of Shuizhuang owners exploded into Ji Zhao's information base in just a few days.Ji Zhao himself didn't have time to chat with the dealers. All he read were the reports compiled by the Jinwu Guards, and then he picked out useful doubts, and continued to let the Jinwu Guards dig deeper along the topic.

In this way, there is still a lot of information in the cloud, which makes it hard to see clearly, for example, Eleven Lang.

Ji Zhao couldn't be sure that Master Shui had something to do with Eleven Lang.There are countless evidences that the owner of Shui Zhuang doesn't play Danqing very much on weekdays, although Cheng Jing also has a work by Shi Shilang in Cheng Jing's study room, the ink color is very new.Yes, this is a suspicious point that Ji Zhao thought of. It was Ji Zhao who first saw Cheng Jing’s boat through the clairvoyance that day. There were four people on the small sailboat at that time. How can someone who can go out to sea with Cheng Jing be an ordinary person? Where's the sailor?It's a pity that he and his little uncle were so attracted by the small boat that they completely ignored this point.Mr. Renshu brought his wife and Luzi to visit Cheng Jing, right?So there is that painting.It's just that everything is his conjecture without any evidence.

If the guesses about Eleven Lang and Mr. Renshu are still a bit cloudy, then the guesses about the identity of the old owner belong to the god-made and iron-clad type.

The old owner is a flying boy, there is no doubt about it, but he has been a monk for 16 years, and he has not heard from him for 16 years, and it is said that he has not even seen his own son.Looking for him now, wouldn't it be like finding a needle in a haystack?But Ji Zhao came up with an idea out of nowhere. He personally drew a meticulous line drawing of Shi Ke, the Chief Attorney.After the painting was finished, at a glance, several old farmers were amazed, "Hey, isn't this our old owner?"

It was so straightforward that it could be called a blind cat killing a mouse, but he was actually caught by him.Well, who told Mr. Renshu to run into Shi Ke in the Lanming Garden after he arrived in the imperial capital?Does Ji Zhao doubt who Shi Ke suspects?

The conclusion of the investigation was sent to the imperial capital. It was Ji Zhao's first small test to run a job independently, and the result should make his father and boss happy.However, this can only be regarded as a small wisdom and a small means.His father's real expectation for Ji Zhao was to see how he would manage the local affairs of a county.Commonwealth is the major issue of people's livelihood, and it takes great wisdom to make the people under the rule have enough food and clothing.

People's livelihood, official reputation, mind, courage, integrity, knowing and employing people... Although a county is small, it is a test in all aspects.Therefore, when investigating gossip about the owner of Shui Zhuang's family, Ji Zhao did not relax the affairs of the county.Ji Zhao spent a lot of time looking through the county annals and checking the accounts. He must be familiar with these before officially entering the county government office.In this way, apart from these official duties, Ji Zhao had very little personal time left, and in the little leisure time left, Ji Zhao devoted most of his energy to Luzi.Daniel completely sold his young master Qingqian.

"...It wasn't my fault that I was hung up and whipped. My father almost beat me to death that time."

Ji Zhao stood down and pulled Daniel's crooked building back, "You haven't finished talking yet, Luzi fell into the river and almost drowned that time, what happened next? Did the owner beat him?"

"It's not." Daniel said with a look of rebellion, "The owner rushed to the river to coax the young master, then took off his clothes, and then he threw the young master into the river again, the owner Teach the young master how to swim. The owner said that the young master is a small water bird, how can a water bird not swim? How embarrassing to say it."

After that, the clear water will become a real small water bird, catching fish and wading in the water, and the egrets will be invincible all over the village.Ji Zhao endured it for a while, but in the end he couldn't hold it back, the corners of his mouth still curled up. He thought of Luzi bragging to himself about how powerful he was in the water...Ji Zhao looked out the window. The eyes are very soft.

"Well, keep talking." While listening to Daniel's gossip, Ji Zhao touched Luzi's special small study room. Although the room is not big, the bookshelves on the two walls contain everything, except for normal poetry, classics and history. There are also copybooks for calligraphy practice, arithmetic herbs, miscellaneous newspaper clippings, pocket money balance sheets, and two stacks of astonishing notes. "Luzi's Life Diary", in the first two books, the word "鹿" could not be written on the cover, and a circle was drawn.

There are also a large number of trophies with shallow drainage on the bookshelf: bamboo whistles, kites, butterfly specimens, pigs made of mud, and a glass jar containing sand and an ant nest with a clear structure, and the ants in it are still alive.Next to the bookshelf is a guqin with a very good sound quality, but under the piano shelf, there is a mighty rice bowl.

The whole study is not neat, but it is very clean.Behind the Bisha kitchen, there is a warm kang under the south window root, on which woolen blankets with scarlet brocade with phoenix patterns are neatly folded.Sitting on the edge of the kang, Ji Zhao touched the small flowers on it, as if he could smell the faint fragrance of Luzi's body.

"By the way, you said that Luzi learned calligraphy and painting from the Zhuang Zhu, why didn't I see a single work?"

"Throw it all away."

Ji Zhao looked up, "Throw it away?"

Daniel shrugged, "Write one and throw one away. Every time the master writes, he can pick out a lot of flaws, or he can pick out a bunch of flaws for the owner, and then throw it away... I think Quite good looking."

"Do you know why?"

"It seems that the owner asked to do this. The young master seems to have mentioned that..." Daniel scratched his head, "There is no best, only better."

The fresh statement made Ji Zhao raise his eyebrows, he chewed those words carefully in his mouth, and lost his mind for a while.

"Master?"

Ji Zhao came back to his senses and nodded. He just remembered the county annals and accounts in the study, thought of this small county that was peaceful and stable, and what grandpa said was "stable" before departure, and then thought of Luzi, and felt a pang in his heart. Proudness grows from scratch, and Luzi is right: there is no best, only better.

Flower Arrangement - Luzi's Life Diary,

Four-year-old Luzi: Sanpang made a wish on his birthday today, that he wants all the shops in the town to become candy shops.However, if every family made sugar cakes, who would buy the sugar cakes from Grandpa Maowei Alley Sugar Cake?

Ji Zhao is proud of the intelligence of the four-year-old Luzi.However, in order to increase the income of the people, when he encouraged farmers to engage in sideline business and grow honeysuckle to sell money, the young county magistrate suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when he saw the robust honeysuckle all over the mountain.Every family grows honeysuckle, who will sell so many honeysuckle?This is the so-called 'cheap grain hurts farmers'.Ji Zhao has learned the way of governing the world, but knowing it is one thing, but applying it is another.

Five-year-old Luzi wrote: What a pity, the fruits in the back mountain are all broken, and they could have been exchanged for money.

The conclusion after discussing with my father: Without agriculture, there is no stability, and without business, there is no wealth.

What Luzi understood at the age of five, Ji Zhao only learned it from his father when he was 14.And Emperor Jiayou could understand it because he stood tall, looked at the overall situation, and looked at the world.

Six-year-old Luzi wrote: He who listens to operas and eats out in restaurants is the uncle who gives the money.What is it that the common people pay taxes and support officials?

Ji Zhao: ...

Of course, you shouldn't expect Luzi's life diary to be full of scary warning words.In fact, ignoring the little sparks that pop up here and there, it's pretty normal for a kid's diary.

In the previous article of Candy Cake Shop, Luzi described trivially that his socks had holes, and because of the holes, he couldn’t talk to his new friends today. (Ji Zhao: What kind of logic is this?)

And two days after he said 'no agriculture is unstable, no business is not rich', Luzi ate too much watermelon at noon, wet the bed, and cried loudly in embarrassment.
