Chapter 22

Unsteadily, he finally arrived at the gate of the prefect's mansion.

The Taishou Mansion is located on the main street, and there are two yamen servants standing guard at the entrance. Whether it is architecture or decoration, it is much more magnificent than the Songjiang County yamen.

Both Song Min and Zhong Dazhuang's stomach hurt from laughing, they were so tired from laughing, and they couldn't laugh out loud, so they could only hold back, almost causing internal injuries.The depressed mood finally got a little relief.

When they arrived at the gate of the prefect's mansion, the two stopped their smiles and put on a sullen face.

Looking back at Li Mo, the corners of their mouths twitched at the same time. This master is fine and fell asleep. What a heart.

"My lord, wake up, we are here."

Li Mo rubbed his eyes and sat up listlessly: "Why are we here so soon, I haven't slept enough, I'm so sleepy."

Three people, one car and one ox, because they were all wearing official uniforms, they were very different from the team in front of Master Zhou, and they attracted people's attention. Many people stayed here to point out, where did this official come from? It's so pitiful. Not even a carriage.

The ox cart was unobstructed, and the sun was so big, so it was too hot, so don’t suffer from heat stroke, it’s poor, it must be an upright official, and they can’t even afford a horse-drawn carriage.

An old lady couldn't see it anymore, so she handed the umbrella in her hand to Li Mo: "My lord, the sun is too strong, hold the umbrella and don't get sunburned."

After all, it doesn't matter whether Li Mo picks it up or not, just put down the umbrella and leave.

As long as there is one, there are two, those who deliver water, those who deliver steamed buns, everything, and all the servants are dumbfounded.

Li Mo smiled and thanked her one by one. She was good-looking in the first place, but her sweet smile at this moment melted the hearts of all the ladies.

"My lord, how old are you and are you married?"

"Ma'am, I'm the county magistrate of Songjiang County. I've just arrived in Baodi. Please forgive me if I make any mistakes."

"Your mouth is so sweet."

"Our Songjiang County is developing very well now, and the roads have been leveled. If you have time, you can visit our Songjiang County. I promise you won't be disappointed."

"So you are the county magistrate of Songjiang County. No wonder you ride an ox cart. It seems that you are really poor and can't even afford a horse cart."
"Look at what you said, I plan to come to the provincial capital by ox cart to pull goods. The speed of the horse cart is fast, but it doesn't pull much. Is this the reason? In Songjiang County, we have braised fish, spicy hot pot, and sweet potatoes. Fan, there is a night market, is there one in the provincial capital? No, Songjiang County is worth a visit."

"Is it really that good?"

"You'll know when you go and have a look, and if you go to our Songjiang County to do business, you will be exempted from tax for three months. If you want to do business in Songjiang County, we welcome you at any time."

Zhou Cheng looked at all this with cold eyes, hum, a country bumpkin has no experience in entering the city.

Zhou Cheng's carriage and all the yamen servants went in directly, and Song Min wanted to drive the ox cart in, but was stopped by the yamen servant who guarded the gate: "My lord said, you have to get off here, only horse carts and ox carts are allowed inside. It's the rule to put it outside."

Song Min was so angry that he wanted to hit someone: "You."

This is to show off your majesty, how naive.

Li Mo motioned him not to be impulsive, and said: "Da Zhuang, you stay here guarding the bullock cart, Song Min and I will go in."

After the two went in, they were blocked from the study again. Song Min was so angry that he wanted to rush into the study. It was enough. He had never seen such a person looking through a crack in the door.It's not that we want to come, you invited us to come.

Looking at the green tiles and vermilion eaves of this government office, those who didn't know thought it was some local tyrant's courtyard.

Song Min's heart was full of sadness. He was also an official, and others lived in Qionglou Yuyu. Their county magistrates still cut down on food and clothing, and used all their money to benefit the people of Songjiang County.

Others go on their journeys with chariots and horses, but their county magistrates rely on two legs. Why is there such a big gap between people? A good official who is dedicated to serving the people is now being held accountable by Shangfeng. What kind of world is this?

Li Mo was so bored that he could only count the ants on the ground.

Song Min looked at her very speechlessly, and the yamen guard in front of the study looked at Li Mo with the expression that someone from a small county town is a bumpkin.

In the study, Liu Taishou was startled when he saw Zhou Cheng with a bruised nose and swollen face: "Zhou Cheng, have you been robbed?"

Zhou Cheng was in a lot of pain, how should he answer, who would believe that he fell?

With a mournful face: "My lord, Songjiang County is very evil."

Liu Dashou glanced at him: "I see you as a villain, and after going out for a while, you became like this ghost."

Zhou Cheng was in a hurry: "My lord, it's true."

I told all about how he fell in Songjiang County. Although it was embarrassing, it was the truth.

Liu Taishou was silent for a moment: "So, this Songjiang County is really evil, there won't be any unclean things, right?"

Zhou Cheng rubbed the goosebumps on his hands: "More than ten years ago, a policeman in Songjiang County was beaten up because he was wronged. He felt ashamed and shameless, and then hanged himself inside. Could it be his soul lingering on?"

Prefect Liu: "There is a possibility."

Zhou Cheng was in a hurry: "My lord, what should we do?"

Taishou Liu stroked his mustache and thought for a while: "Tomorrow, I will go to Jintai Temple to find an eminent monk to perform ritual rituals."

"it is good."

"Where's Li Mo?"

"Outside the door."

"Call him in."

After Li Mo counted the 1825th ants on the ground, the door of the study finally opened.

It was Zhou Cheng who came out, Zhou Cheng looked proud and complacent: "Lord Li, the eunuch asked you to go in."

Seeing Zhou Cheng with a bruised nose and a swollen face, Li Mo raised his eyebrows and said very awkwardly: "Boss Zhou, have you fallen into the cesspit?"

Zhou Cheng: Can you speak human language?

It doesn't matter if you don't answer, Li Mo went straight into the study, and Taishou Liu sat at the desk, looking very busy.

Li Mo: "See Lord Prefect."

Taishou Liu seemed to be frozen by the official document in his hand, neither paying attention nor answering.

Li Mo didn't care, he found a seat by himself and sat down. He just looked at the study room so unscrupulously, tsk tsk, Liu Taishou will really enjoy it, the furnishings in the study room, which one is not a boutique, just the calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall The posthumous works of the former masters are now priceless.

Corrupt official, extremely corrupt official, why no one reports him.

Looking at Liu Taishou again, because the head is lowered, the face cannot be seen clearly, but the person sitting there is a fat man with a fat head and a fat brain.

There is also thin hair. If it wasn't because people in ancient times had long hair, Li Mo guessed that he must be from the Mediterranean.

Just when Li Mo was dreaming about the scene of Taishou Liu being beheaded by Qiu Hou for corruption and accepting bribes, a voice broke the silence: "Li Mo is here, it's because I'm too busy."

Li Mo showed a flattering smile: "Your Excellency is dedicated to the people, wise and courageous, he worries about the world's worries first, and enjoys the world's joys later. He is really a role model for us."

This hat is a bit high, but Liu Taishou likes it.

Prefect Liu didn't answer, and waited for Li Mo to continue to praise, but unfortunately Li Mo was too dishonest.

Li Mo changed the subject, changed his face very quickly, and began to cry poorly: "My lord, Songjiang County has had no money to pay wages for half a year, can you pay in advance? Otherwise, we really can't live, and all the yamen servants will resign , my lord, what should I do?"

Liu Taishou:. . . .

Li Mo continued to howl: "The lower official is a county magistrate, and he can't even afford a horse-drawn carriage. From Songjiang County to the provincial capital, it is still an ox cart. Mr. Taishou, look, is there any official who rides an ox cart? The prefect is ashamed, but there is no other way, Songjiang County is really in trouble, my lord, please do me a favor and give me some money in advance."

Prefect Liu: Continue your performance.

"Songjiang County is building roads these days, and the yamen can't come up with a tael of silver. It's all raised and donated by the big bosses in the city. The officials are very moved and want to make a honor roll to praise them, but the big bosses don't agree. .

They said it was the kindness of the prefect, and they wanted to repay him for his kindness over the years. They also said they would erect a longevity monument for you, and told the people that it was money from the government. "

Liu Taishou was ecstatic: "They really want to erect a longevity monument for this official?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true, but the subordinate officer refused."

Liu Taishou gritted his teeth angrily: "Why?"

"Because the lower officials think that the prefect is such a high-minded person, how can he be so vulgar, don't you think so? We must keep in mind the kindness that the lord has shown us to Songjiang County. The development of Songjiang County in the future is to be done to the lord. Best repayment."

Prefect Liu: Repay the fuck.

Li Mo: "Your Majesty, I don't know. The roads in our Songjiang County have been repaired, and the next step is comprehensive development, tourism, education, medical care, etc."

"But all of these require money. Our county government really can't afford a penny. Lord Prefect, please do me a favor and allocate some funds. We will repay you well in the future."

Taishou Liu said with a fake smile: "Then how will you repay me?"

Li Mo rolled his eyes: "I'll write you a roll of honor."

"How much silver do you plan to advance?"

"Not much, 10 taels."

"How long will you borrow?"

"Ten years, after 10 years, it must be paid back."

"What if the officer says no?"

"Are you kidding me? How could there be no such thing? A majestic government office doesn't have 10 taels."

"No is no."

"Since there are none, why don't I take these calligraphy and paintings from the study away."

Prefect Liu was so angry that he almost flipped the table, and slammed the table: "Get lost."
