Crossing straight to the blue sky

Chapter 616

I heard how poor and deserted Qishan is. At first glance, I saw the bustling county town, buildings, shops, and the noise of people coming and going. Counties are not much different.

This is Qishan County?
While everyone was surprised, they were even more at a loss.

Seeing that they were getting more and more remote, and deviated from the center of the city, the general and Mr. Li and his party became vigilant. The soldiers who had shouted before received the general's signal and ran forward.

"Brother, where are you going? Isn't it going to the county government office? Why are you going to a blind spot?" The soldier seemed to be casual, but his hand was holding the big knife on his waist. Once he found that this person was wrong, he would kill him immediately.

The two officers and soldiers leading the way seemed unaware of the guards of the soldiers, and said with a smile: "This is going to our county government office. I have been working as a post for several years, and I still don't know where the county government office is! Don't worry, it's not a strange place. "

"Is this really going to the county government office? The county government offices are all built in the center of the county seat, why is your county government office so remote?" Those who didn't know thought that the officers and soldiers were not kind to them, and remote places are often prone to accidents.

When this matter was brought up, the officers and soldiers sighed helplessly, "Yes, the county government in which county is not in the center of the county. But we adults can't help it. You see the prosperity of the county, and it has nothing to do with our adults.

The general and Mr. Li have been officials in Weiyang for many years. You must have heard of the situation in Qishan. Bandits are rampant, and they burn, kill and loot every now and then. Ten villages are empty, and the villagers live in fear every day.

The county magistrates who came to take office died one by one, and the county town was dilapidated, rotten and barren.The area I just walked by, and the area next to it, used to be wasteland, and there was not even a thousand people in a county.

The county government office has long been in ruins, and it has become a home for snakes and rats.After my lord took office, he didn't even have a tile to cover his head.At night, he stayed under the eaves of the villagers and almost starved to death. The villagers looked at him poorly and gave him a bowl of wild vegetable soup to survive.General, my lord, here we are, the county government is in front of us. "

After walking for half an hour, not only deviated from the center of the city, but there were no houses around, and finally heard what the officers and soldiers said.Li Futai and the general looked up and couldn't believe the houses in front of them.

"This is the county government office? Can't you make a mistake?" Master Li looked at the small government office in front of him, whose layout was not even comparable to that of ordinary people's houses, and said in a broken voice.

The officers and soldiers of the city gate took them to the place, ignored them, and explained to the policeman on duty at the gate of the yamen, and then went back to continue to be on duty.

The catcher clearly heard his words, came over and glanced at the group of them, and asked routinely: "My lords, please show your documents and verify your identities. There is no mistake, this is the county government office."

Qingyun crossed his legs and gnawed at the peaches. Hearing the movement outside, he didn't move. After eating the peaches, he looked around to the left. There was no cloth to wipe his hands, so he wiped his official uniform directly.

Du Chun'an lowered his eyes, pretending not to see his rude behavior.

"Go, go and meet our Lord Li!"

Qingyun led a group of Yamen officials and rushed out. When he saw the interrogating policeman, his face turned pale with fright, and he ran over and kicked him away, "Blind your dog eyes, this is Mr. Li from Weiyang. Check what, check, don't get out!"

Get out of here quickly!
Qingyun was so excited that tears filled his eyes, he stepped forward and grabbed Lord Li's hand, and was so excited that he was incoherent.

"My lord, I'm looking forward to you. I'm really looking forward to the stars and the moon. That's why I'm looking forward to you. No wonder I heard the magpie cry this morning. It turns out that the lord is here, and the yamen is full of splendor! It's been three years since we left Weiyang, three years!"

Qingyun wiped his eyes and looked up at the sky.This action made Mr. Li puzzled over the two of them. Those who were close to him could see the tears in the eyes of County Magistrate Qishan.

Is this wronged?

General Li Daren looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in the county magistrate's gourd.

Master Li looked at the magistrate of Qishan, then at the general, and said awkwardly: "Yes, it has been three years, Qishan has changed a lot, you are very good."

Li Futai patted Qingyun on the shoulder, expressing his relief.

"I don't know, my lord, Qi Shan's great change has nothing to do with being an official. Come on, go in and talk." Qing Yun dragged him to the court.

Stepping into the courtroom, I was shocked by the simple courtroom again.In short, it is poor.

Thinking about the prosperity in the city, and then looking at the barren and shabby courtroom, the tea served, and the leaves in the cup, he didn't dare to drink it.

Even the official uniform worn by the county magistrate looked like it had been worn for several years, and the cuffs were turning white.

Master Li looked at Qingyun with contempt and sympathy.

This county magistrate is too useless!

"How do you say that? You are the county magistrate of Qishan. Everything in Qishan has something to do with you. It's all about your achievements. How can you say that it has nothing to do with it?" Master Li disagreed with his words.

When this matter was brought up, Qing Yun had an expression that seemed to be crying but not crying, and waved his hands and said: "This matter is not clear in a few words, forget it, let's not talk about it. Sir, what business is there when you come to Qishan? Qi Shan can be said to be cut off from the world, he doesn't know what's going on outside, and I don't know if my lord can tell the lower officials."

"There's nothing to talk about outside, it's all the same. I'm here on official business. It's not urgent. You tell me about Qishan County. I haven't been here for a few years. Qishan has undergone such a big change. Weiyang is not too bad." Glancing at the county magistrate, Master Li said with emotion.

Old fox!
Qingyun cursed secretly.

"My lord has been exhausted all the way, and I have booked an inn in the city. Why don't you go to the inn to rest, and wait for my lord to accompany you around the county tomorrow."

"I rested on the road, and I'm not tired yet."

Qingyun suddenly said 'Yeah', looking like a person who just saw the position next to Master Li, and asked in surprise: "This general looks at the face, don't know which barracks? I haven't seen it in Weiyang last time."

The two of you come and go and practice Tai Chi, and neither of them talks about business.

Being forcibly interrupted, Li Futai felt displeased. Thinking of the purpose of this trip, he had no choice but to suppress his anger and say: "This is General Li. This time I will come to Qishan to work with you."

Qingyun has already ordered someone, and Li Futai has no choice but to introduce him.

Qingyun ran over to grab General Li's hand again, and said excitedly: "General, it's great that you're here. I don't know how many people the general brought with him this time?
My lord and the general also know that bandits in Qishan are rampant and often go down the mountain to rob villages, and the villagers come to the yamen to report the crime every three days, hoping that the yamen will suppress the bandits," Qingyun said with an extremely ashamed look.

"You have also seen the situation in the yamen. Since I have been in office for three years, the imperial court has not paid any salary to the subordinates. The subordinates have no one and no money. They have no ability to suppress bandits."

　A new update is here, come on, Dongdong, the task is half done.So, brothers and sisters, where is your monthly pass?
