Chapter 243 Anger
Liaoxi County, Prefect's Mansion

In the prefecture hall, craftsmen rushed to transform a set of high-leg tables and chairs.

Lines of queues formed in the hall where the office was originally located.

Before the officials in the prefecture could complain that this was against etiquette, they were overwhelmed by the tasks they were assigned.

At this time, the place was filled with noisy noises.

"Mr. Ziji, the "Lingzhi City Pension Plan for the Elderly, Sick and Disabled" has been drafted again. Please take a look at it."

An official with red eyes was holding a stack of documents in his hand, and his teeth could be heard chattering as he spoke.

"Mr. Ziji, here is the list of invitations for the village elders for the Mid-Autumn Banquet. Please review and return it so that the invitations can be customized as soon as possible."

"Mr. Ziji, this is a list of addresses in the city that are suitable for establishing a college. Please take a look."

"Sir, this is the arsenal expansion plan, take a look!"

"Here, this is the "Liaoxi Winter Fired Kang Popularization and Benefiting Project Plan"

"Here, here is the application for Beicheng's disaster relief and pension materials for these ten days! Approval quickly!"

With increasingly impatient voices, documents were thrust directly under Li Li's nose.

Li Li, who had two huge dark circles under his eyes, was also grumpy.

It had been a long time since he had time to sit down, drink, and admire the flowers and the moon.

Liu Hui and Zhao Yun went to Xiangguan to sort out government affairs, and he took over Liu Hui's vacancy, coordinating internal and external affairs, and was so busy that he never touched the ground.

I couldn't bear to take away the documents from the hands of Cao Shuzuo, who wanted to rebel, and made a pile of them.

Li Li first poured half of the jar of herbal tea on the table into his stomach.

Then he took a deep breath and opened the "Lingzhi City Pension Plan for the Elderly, Sick and Disabled" in front of a large number of people.

Then snap and throw it back the way it came.

"I told you, follow the common writing style issued by the government office, don't quote scriptures, do practical things! Rewrite!"

The red-eyed official gritted his teeth and wanted to say something.

In the end, he said nothing, picked up the paperwork on the desk, and turned around to leave.

"The address of the college should be convenient for transportation, with superior cultural and natural environment. Choose it next to Goulan Courtyard? Have you never heard of Mother Meng moving three times? Why didn't you choose your home?"

Li Li changed the words that Gongsun Yan once said to him, changed a few words, and gave them to these officials who had not been trained in their orders one by one.

After answering several questions in succession, Li Li took a few documents that had been preliminarily screened, walked to the door of a small room on the left side of the hall, and knocked on the closed door.

"Enter."

A concise reply came from inside, with a clear voice.

Li Li held the document and went in in response.

The officials outside the house have long been accustomed to such scenes.

Some people continued to do their work with expressionless faces, while others shook their heads secretly but did not stop what they were doing.

Some people showed dissatisfaction and walked out to get some air.

Xu Tian, ​​an official in a bean-green robe, walked to a hiding place and sighed, holding the document that had just been rejected in his arms.

It's really hard to think that he, a manly man, has to work under an unruly young girl...

He couldn't help but lamented: "The hen Si Chen is the only one who depends on the family."

After sighing, he heard a cheer from next to him. After being startled, the middle-aged man looked up and saw that it was his colleague Wang Jin.

The two looked at each other in the distance, and at the same time they found a trace of sadness and indignation in their eyes, and at the same time they were also a little relieved. It turned out that they were not the only ones who thought this was ridiculous.After exchanging glances, the two walked away, one on the left and the other on the right.

Since then, their work has not overlapped.

But on the day of rest, Xu Tian was invited by Wang Jin and gathered together in a tavern.

In the elegant room on the second floor of the tavern, several people were sitting around, holding wine jars and drinking heavily.

"How sad." A person with disheveled hair shouted loudly, as if he wanted to vent his inner anger, and a line of wine from the corner of his lips wetted his front.

"Hey--"

The person next to him didn't speak. He let out a long sigh, but said countless things.

The ten or so people present here are all officials in the prefecture.

They had no friendship before, but now they are gathered together because of their dissatisfaction with this upside-down world.

"That Zhao Yun is really stupid! He has no manliness!" Xu Tian cursed angrily.

He couldn't understand how even a prefect with military power would be willing to delegate power to a woman. In confusion, he could only curse.

"This Jihou's daughter really has no rules!" A person next to her spat, "A woman in the filial period does not marry well and observe filial piety, but she is so greedy for power and position."

"I don't know where the name of pure filial piety came from. It's really ridiculous."

Several people in Yashe agreed very much.

Although Wang Jin, who had been drinking for a while, did not speak, he sighed and shook his head.

"It's a pity that for such an unruly girl, everyone outside is praising her good name!"

"Building a college? Is it possible for a female outcast like her to do such a thing?"

"Her good reputation was built with no idea how much wealth she had."

Xu Tian said, with a trace of contempt flashing on his face: "You actually use your own money to help those poor people. If I had a daughter like this, I would strangle her alive to avoid losing my family."

"Hey, it's a pity that she has Gongsun's support and Zhao Yun's connivance. Even if the Lingzhi family is forced to this point, no one can do anything about it."

These words hit a nerve in everyone's heart.

Isn't it just because they can't do anything about the Gongsun's girl that everyone can only lament here?

At this time, Wang Jin, who had saved the wine shop, asked: "I want to resign from office and return to my hometown to farm and study. I wonder if all of you will come with me?"

Hearing this, there was silence in the elegant residence. Everyone who had been complaining just now unconsciously avoided Wang Jin's questions.

A tough guy with a real family and a big business has resigned long ago and left without worrying about his livelihood. Why should he complain here?
Everyone present was full of complaints and felt cowardly because they had little family background.

Furthermore, the salary and salary offered by Gongsun Yan after taking over were really not low.

No matter how much you curse behind your back, those white salt, grain, cloth and silk are still good things!
Because of the generous salary, as soon as the recruitment documents for officials were posted, a large number of children from poor families came.

After the official school has trained officials in document writing, law, accounting, etc., a large number of petty officials will be unemployed in the future.

They, the former popular Cao Cao officials, would no longer be able to threaten someone with resignation as before.

Once you resign, your position will be really lost.

They were silent, and a trace of contempt flashed in Wang Jin's eyes.

Xu Tian and others couldn't help but blush and defended: "We have been so kind to Gongsun for this life, and it's really hard for us to resign."

Such lame excuses made Wang Jin snort slightly. Just when he was about to say something, he heard someone outside shout loudly: "Since you have received the favor from the Gongsun family, you should bring order to the chaos."

As he said this, a young man with handsome features and a scent of sandalwood came in. He bowed and cupped his hands: "I'm Lian Zhe. I just accidentally heard everyone talking outside the door. I wonder if you are interested in listening to something?"
