Daxianguan

Chapter 141
Wu Degui has been a little terrified these past few days.

Because Chu Xian's control over the county government is getting stronger and stronger, and he got the news that Xia Bozhong should have taken refuge in Chu Xian.Hearing this news, Wu Degui was shocked and angry.

He has already lost one of the two most important positions in the county government, the clerk and the historian. In this way, Chu Xian has the capital to compete with him.

Wu Degui couldn't figure it out, how could this happen?How can it be so fast?

Losing the important position of clerk, Wu Degui was afraid that Chu Xian would find out the deficit of the county treasury bank these years, so he gritted his teeth and secretly made up for it. Although it would not hurt his muscles and bones, it still made Wu Degui feel very distressed. Ten thousand taels of silver.

It's just to make up for the shortfall, at least in a short period of time, Chu Xian can't catch himself.

"Just wait, the road is still long!" Wu Degui gritted his teeth.

……

Chu Xian watched and listened to Xia Bozhong's dictation, and he knew the current internal affairs of Dinghai County well.

And in just a few days, Xia Bozhong was able to grasp the situation and control the situation. Chu Xian was also very satisfied with this, which showed that he did not use the wrong person.

As for Xia Bozhong's sudden and extremely respectful attitude, Chu Xian knew that the other party should have completely returned his heart, which was a good thing, and it was within Chu Xian's expectation.

Some people cannot be won over by words and benefits, they can only use other methods, or make them willing to take refuge in Guixin. This time, Chu Xian used a clever method to get it done in a very short time. Xia Bozhong.

"My lord, there are still some small discrepancies on the county bank bank side, and they are all related to the previous clerk. The lower officials think that they should be strictly investigated to the end." Xia Bozhong knew that there must be Wu Degui behind him, so he wanted to pass This line pulled Wu Degui off his horse.

Chu Xian shook his head.

"It's not the time yet. I know you want to do good things for the people of Dinghai County, but there are some things that cannot be rushed."

Chu Xian said this because he knew Wu Degui. Although this person was greedy, he was not a fool. How could he be incompetent if he had been able to control Dinghai County for so many years?

The questions on Kuyin are so obvious that they are probably traps deliberately set up by Wu Degui. Besides, even if they are not, if we continue to dig deeper, at most they will involve Cai Wenshu. Wu Degui's ass has been wiped clean a long time ago. It will scare the snake.

Xia Bozhong nodded and didn't say anything more.

At this moment, a holy light suddenly fell from the sky, passed through the clouds and the roof, and landed on Xia Bozhong. Along with it, there was a fish-shaped official talisman.

Obviously, at this moment, Xia Bozhong was officially registered in the official code, got an official talisman, and became a human official.

Xia Bozhong's face was flushed, and he was very excited. Although he exercised the power of documents before, he had not officially become an official after all. Now he was relieved, and felt the strong official power filling his body, which made Xia Bozhong feel like being empowered by someone. , as if at this moment, he has also become a master.

In addition, with the blessing of official power, the original physical discomfort and disease can also be eliminated instantly, as if the body is much more relaxed at once.

Xia Bozhong secretly thought, no wonder so many people want to be an official, not to mention that after becoming an official, the power is in their hands, it is the improvement of the physical body, which makes people want to stop.

Chu Xian waited for Xia Bozhong to recover, and then said: "Xia Wenshu, I first came to Dinghai County, and I heard people say that Liangzhou is located on the border, bordering the land controlled by the monster clan, so there are often monster clans invading and causing disasters. People, I don't know if you know this?"

Xia Bozhong hurriedly said: "That's true, especially in our Dinghai County, we were often invaded by monsters in the early years. When it was serious, more than half of the people in the county were killed or injured. In [-], there were almost no monster clans who came to invade again, and even if there were, there were only two or three kittens, who wandered far away and then left, so for the past ten years, the surrounding area of ​​Dinghai County has also been calm."

Chu Xian nodded, he knew all this.

But where is the eternal peace in this world?In the last life, four years later, Dinghai County was invaded by a large number of monster clans, and the entire county was captured, with no survivors.

Chu Xian naturally would not let this happen.

As for Dinghai County, from the officials to the people, it is obvious that they have forgotten the horror of the monster race, and the disaster of the blood moon night and the attack of ten thousand monsters.

Chu Xian planned to ring the alarm bell first for Hai County.

"Xia Wenshu, I want to take a look at the documents recorded during the monster race's invasion in the past 30 years." Chu Xian gave the order. Is it? Could it be that there is another change on the Yaozu side?"

Chu Xian didn't deny or admit it, but said: "Don't think about it first, bring it to me and have a look."

Every time the monster clan invades, there will be a very detailed record, forming a file to warn future generations. Xia Bozhong fetched the dusty file, and after looking through it, Chu Xian found that the last time he saw the trace of the monster clan was also in the third day. Years ago, and there were only two or three monsters wandering in the distance without invading.

But if you continue to look forward, ten years ago, 15 years ago, and even further forward, there are many records of demon clan invasions. Every time, people are devastated.

Closing the file, Chu Xian said: "Xia Wenshu, write a warning article, distribute it, and post it in the county notice. This matter must not be slack, and the alarm bell must ring."

Although Xia Bozhong was puzzled, he still nodded and wrote it down.

"In addition, keep reporting. Tomorrow the Japanese officials will personally inspect the anti-demon fortifications in the county, inspect the county army, ordnance and drills. You should report this matter to Wu Xianwei and Zhang Dianshi." After Chu Xian took control of the county's internal affairs, naturally To intervene in the affairs of the county defense, this matter is the most important thing.

Xia Bozhong went to work, Chu Xian closed his eyes and meditated.

There are still less than four years before the monster clan invades, whether it is long or short, but for Chu Xian, it is enough.

It only takes a few months at most for Chu Xian to completely kick Wu Degui away and control everything in the county, including internal affairs and external defense. At that time, he will have enough time to build the city wall and arrow tower, recruit and train the county army, and resist the invasion of the monster race. At that time, one's own cultivation would definitely reach the level of Shenguan, and might even be promoted to the level of internal alchemy.

At that time, even the masters of the monster clan, Chu Xian can also use spells to kill them thousands of feet away. In this way, the tragedy of Dinghai County in that life in the dream can be avoided.

It's just that Chu Xian always feels that he seems to have neglected something.

At this moment, bursts of loud drumming broke Chu Xian's meditation.

Qi Chengxiang walked in quickly and said, "My lord, someone is beating drums outside to express their grievances."

Chu Xian was taken aback.

At the gate of the yamen, there is a drum to cry out grievances, but this drum is not something that everyone dares to beat. In general cases, it is only necessary to submit a lawsuit, and some cases do not even need to be opened for trial. If the official disposes of it, it can't be dealt with at all.

But if the drums for grievances are sounded, it must be dealt with by the county magistrate himself. If someone makes a false accusation, or it is a trivial matter, the person who beat the drums will be punished. Because of this, it is not a big grievance, nor is it forced Helpless, that is not going to beat the drums and complain.

Chu Xian put on his official uniform at this moment and asked Qi Chengxiang to go down to prepare for his promotion. When Chu Xian went up to the hall, he saw two teenage men and women kneeling on the ground in filial piety and mourning clothes.

The moment he saw these two people, Chu Xian was taken aback, and memories flooded in like a tide.

"It's them?"

……

In the dream, the past life.

Chu Xian finally passed the exam, but was assigned to Dinghai County, Liangzhou as an errand. He was a small official among the small officials. He came here for several months and made some friends.

At that time, Chu Xian was studying art in his spare time, and would often go to the surrounding mountains of Dinghai County to find herbs and identify their properties.

One day Chu Xian went up the mountain and lost his way. Unfortunately, he encountered a fierce tiger again, and his life was at stake.At that time, Chu Xian was a poor student with no strength to restrain a chicken. He had a stomach full of knowledge. He couldn't beat a tiger at the top, and he couldn't kill a chicken at the bottom. .

But Chu Xian didn't die.

A pair of brothers and sisters in the mountains rescued him.

The brother and sister live in Luojia Village at the foot of the mountain. The elder brother is called Luo Yong, and the younger sister is Luo Fei.

At that time, the two brothers and sisters, one was 19 years old and the other, just met Chu Xian at that time, and became good friends.

In other words, the brothers and sisters of the Luo family are Chu Xian's saviors, so Chu Xian will naturally not forget.

But once we parted in the previous life, we never saw each other again. The monster tribe invaded, and the first village to be slaughtered was Luojia Village. There were 53 households in the village with more than 180 people, and none of them survived.

For this reason in the previous life, Chu Xian entered Liangzhou three times in the next few years. First, he came to pay homage to his former friends and confidantes. Second, he came to fight wine and hold a sword to hunt down demon clans. Take a sip and don't stop until the wine is exhausted and the sword is blunt.

Why do this?
For dead friends.

As for who Chu Xian trusted most in Liangzhou in his previous life, it wasn't that old fox Jiang Yuan, nor Xia Bozhong, but the brothers and sisters of the Luo family.

In this life, when Chu Xian came to Liangzhou, he thought that after taking control of the situation in Dinghai County, he immediately went to Luojia Village to look for the brothers and sisters of the Luo family. Unexpectedly, he would meet them in advance in this hall.

Who would have thought that it was the brothers and sisters of the Luo family who beat the drums and called out their grievances.

In an instant, Chu Xian's heart turned back and forth, and it was hard to express the feeling of seeing an old man, especially an old man who had been lost.Trying to regain his composure, Chu Xian restrained his mind and sat on the presiding judge's seat. Soon, Wu Degui also came. He is the chief clerk, so he came naturally. Of course, Xia Bozhong, the clerk, could not be absent.

At this time, the brothers and sisters of the Luo family are not the same as when they met in the previous life. After all, this was three years ago. Luo Yong was 16 years old and Luo Fei was only 15 years old.

In the previous life, Chu Xian only knew that the parents of Luo's brother and sister died, but the two brothers and sisters did not disclose the specific situation, so Chu Xian didn't know, but what he saw at this moment might be the change of Luo's family, which happened not long ago.

Chu Xian's face was gloomy. If he had known this earlier, maybe he could have changed the fate of the brothers and sisters of the Luo family, or if he could have gone to find them a few days earlier, he could have changed everything.

But now, it seems too late.
