An alpha's ancient life record

The road to the southwest is more than a thousand miles, but fortunately there is still a waterway, all the way to the south, beyond the boundary of the capital, board a boat at Kaijin Ferry, and go south along the water.

Apart from the servant girls and escorting guards, Old Liu was worried about this trip, and originally wanted Uncle Liu to go with him, but Shen Qingshu, thinking that Uncle Liu would take over all the affairs of the mansion, resolutely refused.

She is going to be an official, not on vacation. As far as the two of them need to be served, everything should be kept simple.

In addition, Lin Beilan also arranged for her a master, his former subordinate, surnamed Zhou, who is already an old official, so that she can go to the place, so that her eyes will not be dimmed, and she can quickly sort out the relationship and get started. County affairs.

To be honest, although Shen Qingshu has read so many books and written so many policy theories, Shen Qingshu doesn't know how to make a good county magistrate. The imperial court just issued a booklet "Instructions for Appointment and Appointment" to simply train them In two days, let them take office.

It's really rough, but in this era, there is no better alternative.

The county magistrate is the highest administrative officer of a county, in charge of civil affairs, ruling lawsuits and judging prisons, persuading farmers to relieve the poor, punishing traitors and wiping out cunning, establishing education and other matters. It affects the administration of officials in the entire county, so it has always been called the "parent official".

Shen Qingshu was flipping through the booklet on the boat. She had read it many times, but she felt that it was just talk on paper, but she still didn't know how to do it in practice.

She originally wanted to ask Master Zhou for more advice, but she didn't want him to be seasick. After getting on the boat, he vomited and diarrhea, and was sick all day long. Shen Qingshu was really embarrassed to make things difficult for him.

It seemed that everyone was a little seasick, but she was the only one who was used to drifting before, and she didn't feel any discomfort at all. She even wanted to study how the boat could be improved.

Thinking of this, she put the booklet into her bosom, lifted the curtain and went in, sat on the side of the bed and asked, "Is it better today?"

Lin Weizhi was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. Her symptoms were not serious. She had been on a boat with Lin Beilan a few times in the past, but she was not used to it when she first left Beijing, and her heart was sad, so she fell ill accidentally. Fortunately, They prepared common medicines, but they were still a little depressed at the moment.

"Yes," Lin Weizhi replied, and sat up, "I got used to it after a while."

Shen Qingshu carefully looked at her face, saw that her eyes were blue and black, obviously she hadn't slept well, she couldn't help but feel distressed, and sighed: "I didn't expect to be released so far away, and you will suffer along with it."

Shu land is remote and difficult to travel, she has already inquired about it, the situation in Yueshui County is very average, if compared with Huaibei or Jiangnan area, it can even be called poor.Based on her achievements in Chuanlu, if it was released normally, it would not be the case.

Lin Weizhi held her hand, and comforted her with a smile: "What kind of suffering is this? The speed of the boat is fast, and I'm not that delicate. It's a blessing that you can let it go. How can we be picky? ?”

She thought about it every day and dreamed at night, and she actually dreamed of her mother crying to send her off last night. She knew that Shen Qingshu had tried her best, but even so, she still blamed herself.

Afraid of bringing up her thoughts again, Lin Weizhi wanted to change the subject, but when she saw a corner of the brochure protruding from her arms, she smiled and said, "Are you flipping through "Admission Notes" again? If you flip through the foot of the book again, it's about to roll, and you're about to die." Now that you’ve memorized it, what are you worried about?”

"The sailing is boring, and I want to turn over when I'm free," Shen Qingshu smiled shyly, took it out, and stroked the blue cover. The correct black script title on it seemed a bit indescribably majestic.

"I'm always a little nervous. There are 5 people in Yueshui County. After taking office, every move of an official will affect people's livelihood. I have no experience, and I am afraid that I will not be able to do well."

It would be fine if she worked her way up from a low-level civil servant and knew the government affairs by heart, but she was directly airborne and confused, so how could she not be uneasy.

"Don't worry, you can do well if you have this kind of mind. My father used to take office directly, and he didn't even have a master. After a period of time, you will become proficient."

Lin Weizhi laughed a little. Others are full of ambitions when they become officials. After ten years of hard work, they finally stand out and want to make a big career. Fortunately, she is extremely cautious, and she doesn't know what to worry about.

Shen Qingshu didn't know how to explain it. Novices would inevitably make some mistakes, and the imperial court would also take this into consideration when assessing officials' achievements. But as far as she was concerned, the common people had to bear the cost of experience, and one mistake would affect the livelihood of several people. She wanted to do her best. do the best.

But now, she is really just wishful thinking, Shen Qingshu clasped her hand instead, and said with a smile: "Well, I really thought too far, let's wait and see in Yueshui County."

Sometimes Lin Beilan taught her brother, and Lin Weizhi followed suit, but she didn't know if the embroidered pillow would be useful. She thought about it, and didn't speak nonsense, but said softly: "You are so good, I believe you can do it well. of."

"Really," Shen Qingshu listened to her, and suddenly leaned over, looked up at her slightly, with a small smile in his eyes, "What am I so good about?"

She was so serious just now, but now she is on the stick again. Lin Weizhi looked at her helplessly, but still praised her along the way: "You are very good at studying and practicing martial arts."

Shen Qingshu deliberately teased, "There's more, let's be more specific."

It's not over yet, Lin Wei gave her a blank look, "Also, the mouth is the most powerful."

Shen Qingshu burst out laughing, and was about to lean over to kiss her, but Lin Weizhi tilted her head to avoid her, and said helplessly, "Be careful of getting sick."

"Didn't I stop taking the medicine yesterday? Don't be afraid, I've always been in good health." Shen Qingshu refused, turned his head to look for it, and protected the back of her head with his hands to prevent her from avoiding it.

The two kissed lingeringly for a while. After leaving the capital, although Shen Qingshu was reluctant to let go, he felt as if he had finally cast off the shackles and was much more free.

After all, she couldn't bear to torment Lin Weizhi too much, so she let her go after a while and let her rest and catch up on sleep.

Lin Weizhi glanced at her with water in his eyes, turned over and ignored her.

Shen Qingshu waited for her to fall asleep before leaving the cabin, and went to the deck to blow some air. There happened to be a few people sitting together talking loudly, and it was inevitable that she heard a few words beside her, which happened to be with a Sichuan accent.

This boat is an official boat, and those who can get on it have some connections. Shen Qingshu secretly looked around, and saw that the three of them were all wearing fine brocade robes, with rosy complexions and peaceful expressions, like wealthy businessmen.

Shen Qingshu pricked up his ears, and heard them discussing a group of gangsters who were fleeing and committing crimes. He said that they had gotten word that they seemed to have fled to Sichuan recently, and the government had not been able to arrest them.

They returned to Shu after finishing business in the capital, carrying gold and silver, and were quite worried about any accidents on the way.

Shen Qingshu was taken aback, she had never heard of such dirty news before, and she didn't want to make her appointment too public, so she didn't bring many guards with her.

Swords have no eyes, these thieves are murderers, robbers, and ruthless people. There are many women in their group, and they also bring a lot of property. I don't know if they will be targeted.

Shen Qingshu decided to be more cautious. After disembarking, he took the sign and went to the government, and then he had to be escorted by a team of government servants.

Follow the canal down south, then turn west, and sail against the current in the middle and upper reaches. The resistance of the water is getting bigger and bigger. In some places, trackers still need to pull the boat, and there is a risk of capsizing when encountering dangerous shoals.

A group of people got off the boat, changed into a carriage, stopped and stopped, and finally entered the territory of Shu, but there was still the Shu road in front of them.

The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go up to the blue sky. Only then did Shen Qingshu deeply understand this line of poetry. Looking around, there are high mountains and deep valleys. .

Now it's June, the weather is stuffy and hot, but it rains a lot at night, after suffering all the way, even the guards are exhausted, let alone the female relatives.

It's no wonder that although Shu is not considered poor, few officials are willing to send it here, but local scholars are not allowed to return to their hometowns, and they want to be officials in other places.

Xiaoxing stayed overnight and finally arrived in Chongzhou. Seeing Yueshui County in sight, everyone couldn't help but relax a little.

The motorcade stopped to rest at the tea stand on the side of the road. Shen Qingshu got off his horse and asked for some tea and porridge, distributed them, and brought them to the car for Lin Weizhi.

Seeing her kind face, the shopkeeper kindly reminded: "I see that there are many female relatives in the guest officer's party, so you should be more careful when you make the transition."

Shen Qingshu was startled, and hurriedly asked: "How do you say?"

The shopkeeper said: "At the ferry ahead, there is a wave of water bandits entrenched. They often deal with cases. They are rich and noble like guest officials and have female relatives. They are their favorites to attack."

Shen Qingshu was puzzled and said: "They are entrenched here, the government doesn't care?"

"No matter what, you come to suppress him. He hid in the water, but he couldn't find it. The government can't stay here all day."

"What are you talking about, old man?" The catcher who escorted Shen Qingshu put down his teacup and stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, my lord, we are escorting you, you can just go on your way with peace of mind, there must be no Xiao Xiao who dares to make trouble."

Shen Qingshu had doubts in his heart, and said: "It's better to be careful and vigilant. If you give orders, keep your spirits up. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for being merciless."

Even though she was carrying the official flag, few small thieves would dare to mess with her, but there were also those who would be bold and take risks.

It's also my fault that she didn't have the concept of road bandits in later generations, and she stayed in the capital for a long time, getting used to the good law and order, and forgetting the dangers of these remote areas.

After the rest of the group finished, the guards were in front and the yamen servants were behind, and they crossed the ferry carefully.

Not far from the ferry, there was a small boat hidden in the water grass. A few men sat on it, watching Shen Qingshu and their boat go away from a distance. The one in the middle with the scar on his face spat unwillingly. , "Hey, it's really bad luck, I thought it was a fat sheep, I didn't want to be an official, and I was so cowardly, attracting so many government guards."

The man next to him said: "It's not like we haven't robbed officials and eunuchs before. Brother, these yamen servants are trash snacks. As long as they don't let people get away, I think we can do it."

The man with the scar yelled: "How the hell have you been messing with me all these years! You don't have any eyesight at all. Look at those guards in front of you, that little boy, they are all good hands. You will definitely not be able to take them down in a while. Look at the clothes and boots of that little boy, and the jade on his waist, can he be an ordinary official! How dare you provoke him, and the government will try harder to arrest us, none of us will be able to escape!"

The man next to him didn't dare to argue, and asked, "Brother, what should we do next? We fled here and spent most of our money."

"Now the government is chasing him closely, let's go, first go and join Bai Wu, a local snake, to avoid the limelight first."
