Chapter 84
After Lin Ji came to the government office, he walked into the lobby, but found that there was no one there.

The yamen servant was arrested and questioned, but the yamen servant knew nothing about it.

With some confusion, Lin Ji came to the side hall, ready to wait here.

But as soon as he approached the study, he heard voices talking inside.

"That's all? Where's your Master Lin? You haven't come yet?"

It was Lu Zhaoer's voice.

Lin Ji frowned and pushed open the door of the study, but then froze.

In the study, Lu Zhaoer was holding the simplified version of the document that Lin Ji had just read yesterday, and Zhou Ying was responding cautiously across from her.

On the other side, Zhan Chengfeng was also there.

"Master Zhan?" Lin Ji became more and more confused.

"Lu Youxing wants to investigate Liangzhou's old cases. I can't stop it, so I'll leave it to you." Zhan Chengfeng patted Lin Ji on the shoulder, as if he was about to leave.

Lin Ji quickly followed Zhan Chengfeng out of the study room, closing the door behind him.

"My lord, what's the situation?" Lin Ji asked quickly.

Zhan Chengfeng looked helpless: "That girl is full, and Officer You Xing is indeed responsible for supervision, so I can't say anything."

"There is such a thing, but after so many years, I haven't seen that star tour official come down to do this kind of rough work."

Lin Ji really couldn't figure it out. In the past few years since he joined Tiansi, he has never seen Officer You Xing come down to investigate such nonsense.

You Xingguan has a very wide range of control, including old cases in Kyushu.

If you encounter it, check it out.

But this has to be met.

Is it because there are too few orders from above, or is there not enough chaos everywhere?

Why don't you kill all the evil spirits all over the world, come and investigate this matter?
"This girl has such a personality since she was a child, you should be more careful." Zhan Chengfeng's tone was rare.

"My lord, what is this person's background?"

"My surname is Lu, from Beijing." Zhan Chengfeng looked at Lin Ji with a half-smile.

Lin Ji was still in a daze, he was not familiar with the capital at all.

But then, he thought of the Lu that Zhan Chengfeng had mentioned.

"The Lord of the Town, Lu Guangmu?"

"It's that Lu, so it's up to you, don't let this girl really go to Beijing to make trouble."

After the words fell, Zhan Chengfeng's pace obviously accelerated, and he disappeared after a while.

Lin Ji had no choice but to go back to the study.

Seeing a new pile of files on the desk, Lu Zhaoer was watching carefully, and Lin Ji didn't want to disturb her.

But he can't leave even if he walks, this study is his, so where can he go.

Therefore, Lin Ji could only make a pot of tea, sit down on the side seat, and watch Lu Zhaoer quietly.

This look is an afternoon.

Until Lin Ji's eyes were a little slack, it was already time for him to wander into the sky.

Lu Zhaoer's voice suddenly pulled his soul back.

"Master Lin?"

Lin Ji raised his head and his pupils refocused.

"Have you finished reading Lu Youxing? Liangzhou really doesn't have any old cases for you to investigate."

"It's not on the file, but it may not be true."

"The people below want to hide it. It's useless if you go there. Those people don't have a single word of truth out of their mouths."

"Then we have to go and talk about it."

Hearing this, Lin Ji was silent for a moment.

"Could it be that Lu Youxing wants to go there himself? There are dozens of counties in Liangzhou. If you really go to investigate, it will take a few months."

"So we won't investigate anymore?" Lu Zhaoer tilted her head and looked at Lin Ji quietly.

At this time, Lu Zhaoer still had no expression on her face, she tilted her head slightly and looked at Lin Ji with an indescribably cute expression.

But Lin Ji is not affected by this.

He just looked at Lu Zhaoer deeply.

"Before Lu Youxing came to Liangzhou, where did he do business?"

"Go to Xiangzhou first, then Yangzhou."

Xiangzhou is north of Liangzhou and east of Jingzhou.

Yangzhou is the southernmost of Kyushu, where rivers run off and border the sea.

"Why?"

"For dispatches from Beijing, Official You Xing handles errands, most of them are sent by Beijing Central."

"What about after the errands? Is Liangzhou just asking for boredom?" Lin Ji asked again, bluntly saying that she was asking for boredom.

Lu Zhaoer was not angry, but nodded slightly.

"It's all like this, it's boring to ask for it."

"How is the result?"

"Everywhere I go, there is more resistance than cooperation; as you said, there are many obstacles no matter what. The people below want to hide it. They are full of nonsense, and people can't figure it out."

"Even so, still investigate?" Lin Ji continued to ask.

"check."

Speaking of this, the corners of Lu Zhaoer's mouth curled up.

This was the first time Lin Ji saw her smiling, and she didn't expect to be surprised, which made Lin Ji stunned for a while.

It was the white dress and long indifferent expression that covered up her appearance, but in fact Lu Zhaoer was already beautiful.

"Are you laughing because this is something you are proud of?" Lin Ji asked after a long time.

Lu Zhaoer looked at Lin Ji in surprise.

"You guessed it?"

"Guess."

Lu Zhaoer nodded.

"Once upon a time, too many people advised me not to work hard in vain, and then I told others about the big and small cases I had handled."

Lin Ji interjected: "After you've finished speaking, ask the other party again. How can this be a waste of hard work?"

"Exactly!" Lu Zhaoer was quite excited.

Lin Ji knew that this was a passion.

Lu Zhao'er continued: "Why don't I know that if you go to each county to investigate, you will spend all your time and make things difficult, but you may not be able to gain anything."

She looked at Lin Ji with light in her eyes.

"But if everyone thinks it's troublesome, and everyone doesn't do it because of this, then who should do it?"

"Could it be possible to control the world by going to Beijing to report on the demon hunt once every three years?"

"Still relying on those old men with wine bags and rice bags from the official department and vegetarian meals in the corpses? Every year the official department takes meritorious service, and those who go up are all entrusted to others by their connections."

After the words fell, Lu Zhaoer sat down again, still in the seat that originally belonged to Lin Ji.

"I can't understand these things, and I'm sitting in the position of star tour officer again, so I have to take care of it."

Facing Lu Zhaoer's shining gaze, Lin Ji let out a long sigh of relief.

Standing up, bowing slightly to salute.

"Where does Lu Youxing start to investigate?"

The corners of Lu Zhaoer's mouth curled up again.

"I've been to Lianghe County. If you come from Qingyang County, go to Qingyang County first."

"When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow morning."

"I'll be waiting at the south gate tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Lin Ji walked out of the study with a little smile on his lips.

Outside is the treetops on the moon.

Early the next morning, Lin Ji was waiting at the south gate.

Not long after, Lu Zhaoer appeared on a white horse, holding a black horse in his hand.

"Still riding?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows.

Before he started practicing, he couldn't go anywhere.After practicing, he relies on his feet wherever he goes.

He really hasn't ridden a horse a few times.

And horses get tired, but he usually doesn't get tired when he travels.

At least better than the horse's physical strength, faster.

"Ride on, an official must look like an official." Lu Zhaoer said.

Lin Ji got on the dark horse and looked at Lu Zhaoer in confusion.

"Going to work below, you have to put on airs and have a bad face."

Lin Ji laughed dumbfounded.

"Talk from experience?"

"Yes."
