God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1216 Terrible Situation

Wannian County Government.

Everyone was worried.

Liu Wentong looked at Du He.

Originally, he thought that Du He would lose his temper and curse Chen Shuda's eighteenth generation ancestors.

Unexpectedly, Du He was drinking tea calmly.

Liu Wentong couldn't help but said: "My son-in-law, I don't think there is a chance for this matter."

Du He smiled, and said: "Master Liu means to let me enter the palace, please be merciful to His Majesty, and take back the will?"

Liu Wentong nodded, "That's right, even if you can't be promoted, being the county magistrate for ten thousand years is better than joining the army as a sihu."

Xu Zhiyuan's eyes lit up: "If that's the case, I would like to present a memorial to help the son-in-law mediate."

Wei Shuyu also said: "Brother Du, I can also ask my father to help. Colleague, I will also submit a memorial, saying that I am not talented enough to be the county magistrate of Wannian."

Although they are both county magistrates, the status of Wannian magistrate is higher than that of Hu county magistrate.

This time, the court appointed Wei Shuyu as the magistrate of Wannian County, but it was intended to be promoted.

Liu Wentong and others sincerely wanted to help Du He.

Hearing this, Du He waved his hands and said, "You are all wrong. In my opinion, the job of being a household secretary and joining the army is very good. From then on, I can concentrate on the business taxation of Jingzhao Mansion. Why not do anything about law and order.”

Liu Wentong was surprised and said: "It's just that, in this way, it will be even more difficult for the son-in-law to be promoted. Even if you have made contributions to the position of Sihu and joined the army, it will be difficult to become an officer of one party. At that time, those in the court People will prevent you from entering the court on the grounds that you were born in Sihu and joined the army."

"Yes, son-in-law, you have to think clearly, once you really accept it, your future will be full of difficulties." Xu Zhiyuan also said.

Du He smiled and asked: "I think back then, they took great pains to let me go to Wannian County to be a county lieutenant. Isn't that what they had in mind? So what? It's not like this young master can sit in the county magistrate's position." Since they don't want me to be promoted, then I will be promoted as soon as possible, but only eight words: the soldiers come to cover up the water and the earth."

Liu Wentong said in admiration: "As the old saying goes, when the heavens are about to assign great responsibilities to people, they must first work hard and work hard...Facing such a predicament, the son-in-law can still laugh and talk to each other. It is rare in ancient times. The son-in-law is both a Beijing Sihu of the Zhaofu joins the army, and I will be the son-in-law to help."

Xu Zhiyuan said: "From now on, Xu will definitely only look after the son-in-law."

Wei Shuyu stuffed a piece of pork jerky into his mouth, and said, "I will obey Brother Du in everything."

Du He cupped his hands and said, "So, there are a few of you."

He suddenly realized that he also had his own team.

At this moment, Liu Wentong suddenly asked: "I just don't know, how will the court determine the candidates for Hu County?"

Xu Zhiyuan said: "The son-in-law is the previous county magistrate of Huxian County. The previous county magistrate, Mr. Wei, was recommended by brother Du. Normally, Mr. Wei is transferred to be the magistrate of Wannian County this time. The candidate for this county should also be the son-in-law. It's recommended."

Before the words fell, there was a voice at the door.

"Don't daydream, the county magistrate of Hu County, the candidate has been confirmed."

Everyone turned their heads to look.

Yuchi Gong walked in with a gloomy expression.

His skin was dark, and as soon as he came in, the whole room became darker.

Seeing Yu Chigong's face, Du He smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Yuchi is here, and what he brought here is probably not good news, right?"

Yuchi hummed, "Nephew, I have tried my best. Originally, the county candidate for this Hu county was recommended by me and the house minister to Wei Shuwan, the third young master of Wei. Although Wei Shuwan is young, he has been in charge of the pig farm in Hu county for many years." However, it is well-organized and has a lot of credit. Who would have thought that two old men, Wang Gui and Changsun Wuji, suddenly stepped in and recommended Dali Temple Shaoqing Changsun Chong as the magistrate of Hu County, and there were many people who supported him. , this matter has been confirmed, and there will be an imperial decree tomorrow."

Xu Zhiyuan exclaimed in surprise: "Eldest Sun Chong is Princess Yuzhang's son-in-law. It is said that a son-in-law cannot hold an official position with real power. It is against common sense for elder Sun Chong to be the county magistrate of Hu County."

Yu Chigong sneered, and then looked at Du He: "Then you have to ask someone who breaks the common sense!"

Xu Zhiyuan was stunned.

Du He is not only the son-in-law, but also the son-in-law of the two princesses, so it's not like Zhao Yang is in the position of real power.

Xu Zhiyuan smiled wryly.

Yu Chigong said: "Changsun family, I have nothing to do with you. Now that Changsun Chong is the magistrate of Huxian County, it may not be that the Changsun family wants to embarrass you. Moreover, your Dream Group is in Huxian County, so you have to be more careful. "

Du He said coldly: "It seems that this is the worst situation. However, there are too many lice and it doesn't itch."

"Aren't you worried?"

Du He said nonchalantly: "Chang Sun Chong is just my defeated general, what are you afraid of?"

Yu Chigong nodded: "Since that's the case, then I'll have dinner at your county office today."

Du He and others: "..."

……

The next day.

Sure enough, there was an edict.

Changsun Chong served as the county magistrate of Hu County.

Wait until noon.

Du He was still in the Wannian County Office when he saw Wei Shuyu arriving at the County Office with a carriage full of belongings.

Du He joked, "Brother Wei's speed of taking office is a bit too fast."

Wei Shuyu smiled wryly and said: "Brother Du doesn't know something. This morning, Changsun Chong has already arrived in Hu County and eagerly let me make room. Now, I am homeless, so I can only come to the Wannian County Office first, but Brother Du, don’t get me wrong, I’m not here to drive you away, Brother Du can stay as long as he wants in this Wannian county government, just in time, I have many things to ask.”

What Wei Shuyu said was sincere.

During his tenure as the magistrate of Hu County, he had always been Xiao Guicao's follower, and all the rules of the entire Hu County were established by Du He when he was the magistrate.

All he did was check for gaps and fill in gaps.

But in Wannian County, the situation is different.

Wei Shuyu's first thought was to ask Du He for help.

Du He nodded: "It should be so."

In the next few days, Du He stayed behind closed doors.

Stay with Wei Shuyu all day, discussing the development of the Wannian County Government.

In Chang'an City, there was a heated discussion about Du He serving as Sihu and joining the army, but within a few days, it faded away.

at the same time.

Changsun Chong returned to Sikong Mansion eagerly, feeling very bad.

When he learned that Changsun Wuji was in the study, he hurried to the study.

When Changsun Wuji saw Changsun Chong, he put down the book in his hand and asked, "Chong'er, magistrate of Hu County, are you doing comfortably?"

Changsun Chong shook his head, and said with a serious expression: "Father, what this county magistrate does is not easy, there is a lot of resistance."

"Oh?"

Chang Sun Chong's face was very ugly, and he explained: "Father, we underestimated Du He's influence in Hu County, not to mention ordinary people, who worshiped Du He as a god, and said that Du He was the reincarnation of a civil and military star. It is said that the county government must be called Du He, and I am blocked everywhere when I want to do something."
