Shi Gui and Mrs. Li came from the waterway. Because Mrs. Li accidentally found out that she was pregnant, she was delayed on the road for a while, so she specially sent a letter to Xue Xun, asking him to help clean up the residence.

When the war broke out in the south, Jinling, as the land of Longxing, often had to set an example. Even though the historian had many properties in Jinling, Shi Gui still wanted to live in the back office to show his diligence.

Jin Beast personally took the people to the yamen to hand over.

After the chief executive left, the yamen became the base of small officials. Jinling was different from others. Tongzhi exceeded the conventional configuration. There were three officials. No one obeyed anyone, and after Wan Fang left, there was not even a candidate to act as the prefect of Jinling temporarily.

The golden beast took Shi Gui's seal to the magistrate's office, but was stopped by someone.

"We are the magistrate's servants, first come to arrange a place to stay, if you stop him, do you mean that you don't like the new envoy?" The golden beast squinted contemptuously.

"Uncle Jin was joking. No one in Jinling City knows your name, so don't make fun of it." The concierge is the one who is most familiar with Jinling's gossip. Jin Beast, as Xue's family member, is also quite famous.

"Since you know who I am, what are you doing to stop me?" Jin Beast sighed, and said, "Come on, I won't make things difficult for you, and your words don't count, just report it to the inside."

"Yes, yes, yes." The concierge nodded and bowed and sent one of his subordinates to rush in to report.A servant of the Xue family is also a figure who can call himself a master outside.

The golden beast untied the purse from his waist and threw it to the leading concierge, asking, "Who is in charge now?"

The concierge squeezed his purse and said with a smile: "Uncle Jin, you know, Mr. Wan is gone, this yamen is the interim replacement of Mr. Tong Zhi, and now Mr. Wu Shu is the oldest."

"Hmph! You are dishonest too." Jin Beast cast a glance at his purse, and said with a smile, "Knowing that Master is from the Xue family, you still dare to say such nonsense."

The concierge was terrified. Unlike the high-level officials, they clearly knew that the Xue family was in charge of the Secret Service Department, but they still had a good understanding of the strangeness of the Xue family. Because they didn't know why, they often took on the color of mysterious worship.He hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "Uncle Jin has wronged the younger one. This is not just the beginning of the remark, and we haven't talked about the main topic yet."

"Then let's talk about Master Bao. Master Bao is known as Master Bao. He knows everything and does everything. I also want to pay my respects to such a character."

Listening to the sound, the concierge heard the word "Master Bao" from the mouth of the Golden Beast, and knew that the Xue family must have checked it out.Asking him now is just for verification and comparison, and I don't know what the truth they found out. There are lures from the purse and threats from the Xue family. The concierge knows everything he knows.

The concierge was still talking to the golden beast, and the servants who had gone to complain rushed back to invite the golden beast to go in.

The three fellow magistrates of the magistrate's yamen took turns to work, and today happened to be Mr. Wu Shu.

Wu Shu is old and has a lot of qualifications, and he will reach the age of official in a few years. At his stage, he is looking forward to a big man who can do everything, and he can just drink soup.At the final stage of his official career, he has no hope of advancement, and only hopes to shrink his head to keep safe.Unexpectedly, things in the world can't go as expected, the magistrate of Jinling, which used to be stable and stable, has undergone frequent changes in the past few years, which scares this old man who is just waiting to go home. Thanks to Bao Wenqing, he doesn't have to use martial arts to do everything. bother.

"The little golden beast is in charge of Xue's family, and I have met Master Wu Shu." The golden beast bowed to salute, unlike ordinary servants who kneeled and kowtowed, rather self-confident.

Wu Shu knew that the Xue family was not simple, and said with a smile: "You don't need to be too polite, why did Master Xue send you here?"

"My lord, the young one was ordered by the new magistrate Shi Guishi to clean up the back office first in preparation for resettlement. This is the seal of the new envoy, please check it."

The golden beast presented the seal with both hands, and Wu Shu read it over and over in his hand, muttering "I'm getting old, my eyesight is not working well." But it was delaying time, thinking how to evade it.Bao Wenqing is now the leader of the three prefects. He has his own ambitions. The magistrates have changed several times, but they are still there.

Officials with no background like Bao Wenqing and Wu Shu can only think of these crooked ideas.

Bao Wenqing and the others deliberately emptied the magistrate, but they didn't expect Xue's family to suffer from macrocephaly before the magistrate arrived, and he was still a servant.But even if it is a servant, with a seal, it is the right thing for the official to send someone to clean up the back office before he takes office. If there are reasons and evidence, why should he refuse.

Jin Beast couldn't make a decision after reading the martial arts book, so he pretended to be chatty and said: "Master Wu is highly respected, and he has been in power in our Jinling for almost 30 years. A few days ago, the little one was wandering outside, and I heard that some people spontaneously organized to Sending the Manmin Umbrella when you call me."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, it's all because of the love of the people." Wu Shu was puzzled, he was not the chief official, and he couldn't send Wanmin Umbrella to him.

"Your Majesty Wu is as modest as you are. You should be here in the next year. You have been traveling abroad and haven't heard the local accent for many years. I heard that your hometown is in the middle of Shu. I don't know when you will go back. If you want to go back to the middle of Shu, the caravan under the name of the Xue family, Escorts, I hope to have the honor of serving you for a while."

"Haha, haha..." Wu Shu thought that the Golden Beast was threatening him and would play tricks on his way back to his hometown, but Wu Shu was as tactful and cowardly as Wu Shu, but he didn't dare to turn his back on him, so he could only laugh dryly.

"Lord Bao and Master Yu are different. Like the envoy, they are young, vigorous, and upright. Our envoy is also looking forward to competing with the two young talents." Jin Beast reread the word "comparison", hinting that one is about to cause Those who are not willing to do anything with these things, let the ambitious ones fight.

Wu Shu was shaken, Jin Beast pretended to sigh and said: "Master Wan has finally left, and a new envoy has arrived, if you can't be safe, my master will also worry."

Wan Fang was at odds with Xue's family, so he got away with great difficulty, and then tried his best to transfer in a historian who was in contact with Xue's family. That's what Jin Beast meant.After Wu Shu heard this, he suddenly realized. He was also curious that the magistrate was a civilian job, why Shi Gui, a descendant of martial arts and a general who had been on the battlefield, was appointed to be the prefect.

Immediately said with a smile: "That's right, our adjutant officer is determined to assist the envoy to benefit the people of Jinling."

"With a reasonable adult like you, I thank you for leading the people of Jinling." The golden beast put on a show.

With the consent of today's military secretary on duty, Jin Beast led people to tidy up the back office, and arranged the guards they had brought with them. Now that they came, they were not going to go out, and Bao Wenqing couldn't drive them away even if he got the news afterwards.

Yu Te, one of the three acquaintances who had been hiding behind Bao Wenqing and drinking soup, heard the news, smiled wryly, and thought to himself: "I also said that I want to take the new envoy, but he has not yet arrived, only a slave, let Brother Bao's scheme succeed." Kong, is it appropriate for me to follow him again?"

Xue Xun sent people to tidy up the back office, expressed the respect of the local snake of the Xue family to Shi Gui, and called the golden beast back.Shi Gui's confidants should do the rest of the handover documents and so on, and the helper should not have too deep a hand.

After a few days, Shi Gui arrived, and Xue Xun went to pick him up at the pier himself.

Xue Xun sat in the carriage, waiting for Shi Gui to disembark.

Seeing Shi Gui, the golden beast hurried forward to salute, saying: "Greetings to Mr. Shi, our master is waiting for him over there. The master has filial piety on his body, so he doesn't dare to collide."

Shi Gui strode forward, lifted the curtain to get into the car, and said with a smile, "It's been a few years since I've seen you, and you've become pedantic again. For those who have come down from the battlefield, there are not so many taboos about bumping into each other."

"Brother Shijia is still so forthright." Xue Xun smiled and clasped his fists, "Isn't this my sister-in-law's wife who is pregnant? The child is delicate."

"My brother called me Yuzhong, which is the name the old man took when we got married."

"Brother Yuzhong..." Xue Xun called out.

"Hey, we are all old relatives, so we won't be courteous to my younger brother. You have a doctor who you know recommends you. Your sister-in-law can't eat and sleep well all the way, and she's already thin and out of shape. I look forward to going to Jinling as soon as possible." Shi Gui Tiehan is tender, a rough man who fights on the battlefield, but he has a gentle expression when talking about his wife.

Xue Xun looked at his bronze-colored skin and the obvious calluses on his wide palms. He felt admiration for this big brother whom he had not seen for many years. Waiting at the magistrate's yamen. Brother Yuzhong has been full of dust all the way, and my wife is not feeling well, so I won't bother you any more. After my brother settles down, I will take care of him."

Shi Gui also received a report from his servants, knowing Xue Xun's intention to prepare a back room for him in advance, he was very grateful, patted Xue Xun on the shoulder heavily, and kept silent, keeping everything in silence.

Xue Xun sent Shi Gui back in his own carriage, and the servants slowly moved things at the pier. Along the way, he told Shi Gui about the situation in Jinling City in bits and pieces. Regardless of Xue’s family being in the wild, there is no need for Shi Gui’s news at all. The poor in the court.Even because Shi Guiwu reposted the text, many things are not as clear as Xue Xun's.

The carriage ran for about an hour before arriving at the magistrate's yamen, Xue Xun clasped his fists and said: "Zhuo Jing is also pregnant, so I can discuss with my sister-in-law about child rearing, my younger brother will just wait for my elder brother's message."

"Don't worry, I will prepare a good table and invite my virtuous brother respectfully."

After the two of them finished their courtesies, Xue Xun went back to the old house and was going to visit Xue Wang's family first, but as soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, Uncle Zhong came to intercept him and said: "Master, I lost the news about the Fuzhou site in Fujian."

"Go to the study!" Xue Xun said loudly, why did he suddenly lose the news of the site? In places where wars are likely to be affected, the Xue family nominally withdrew all the store bases, leaving only the General Secretary for concealment. The General Secretary has a hundred years of accumulation , and has an official background, how could he still lose news.
