All Heavens Hongmeng Tree

Come and let my uncle see if he has changed. "

All the officials congratulated their nephews and uncles on their reunion.

With a stern face, Liu Xi cupped his hands and said to Cheng Dun: "Cheng Juncheng, please forgive me. Now I am the prefect appointed by the imperial court, and I have not officially taken office. Let's still consider public office, and it is better to put public first and then private."

Cheng Dun smiled embarrassedly and said, "Okay, it should be public first, then private."

The crowd also laughed in agreement.

Liu Xi looked on with a cold eye, and found that all the officials seemed to follow Cheng Dun's lead.

His smile, anger, joy and worry, these officials all followed suit and did not dare to disobey.

This is not a good omen, do you want to stand up for me?he thinks.

He recalled the information about Cheng Dun.

The Cheng family is a big family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and now it is divided into two branches.

One branch is located in Dong'e County, Dong County, and is called Dongcheng.

One is in Bo County, Taishan County, known as Xicheng.

The two places are not far apart, only a hundred miles away.

As the earliest east route, it has gradually declined, but the west route, which was separated later, has become more and more prosperous.

Liu Xi's mother was from Dongcheng.

And Cheng Dun was the head of Xicheng's family. In terms of seniority, he was indeed Liu Xi's uncle.

But after so many generations of relatives, Liu Xi did not believe that there was any nephew relationship between the two sides.

Cheng Dun's performance just now was just to save Liu Xi's face and damage his majesty.

Think about it, if Liu Xi had greeted him as a nephew in public, then he would always be higher than him.

In the future, he can even confuse public and private, in order to use his power.

Because the Han Dynasty advocated filial piety, if it is true that personal feelings outweigh justice, wouldn't he be under the jurisdiction of the county chief in the future?

So Liu Xi decisively refused.

In this secret confrontation, Liu Xi was slightly better.

After meeting the civil and military officials, Liu Xi sent them back first.

Now that he has just arrived, he is not suitable for making big moves. He should first find out the basics, firmly grasp Taishan County step by step, and then develop it.

Today the world is not a chaotic world where princes compete for hegemony, so you still have to pay attention to the rules, otherwise you will be hostile to the whole world.

Since receiving the appointment, Liu Xi has returned to his hometown by flying eagles.

The people of the Liu family in Lousang Village were extremely happy and wept with joy.

After so many generations, the title of the ancestor was finally restored.

At this time, some of his team had already migrated over.

Liu Lu was in charge of his huge spying agency.

After receiving Liu Xi's biography, he had already arrived in Taishan County first, and then began to investigate all aspects of Taishan County, civil and military officials, local tyrants and so on.

He greeted Liu Xi excitedly, and said, "My lord, the villain has repaired and widened the residence of the Houya, which is completely enough for the lord's subordinates to live in. Please come with me."

He took them to the residence, and saw an entire street next to the government office, with tall red walls and green tiles on that side, and inside was his residence.

Entering from the door, I saw the pavilions and pavilions, which were very delicately repaired.

Clusters of peony flowers are in full bloom, and the melons and fruits are fragrant.

The courtyards are connected in a circle, and the introduction of running water makes it look vibrant.

Liu Xi nodded in satisfaction.

After settling the crowd, Liu Xi called Xi Zhicai and Chen Gong to discuss the matter.

Xi Zhicai thought about it and said, "From what I saw today, that Cheng Juncheng seems to be quite prestigious."

Chen Gong nodded in agreement and said, "Brother Zhicai is very insightful, please don't misunderstand me, my lord."

Liu Xi said with a smile: "Don't you just want to say that the officials of Taishan County are in a relationship with Cheng Dunran, and want to stand up for me? Is there anything you can't say?"

Xi Zhicai didn't expect him to be so straightforward, and said, "As the saying goes, there is no relationship between sparseness. We are afraid that the master will take care of Uncle Lang's feelings, and then we will shy away from doing things."

Liu Xi said: "My mother is from Dongcheng and has been separated from Xicheng for many years.

And since my mother passed away, Dongcheng has basically cut off contact.

Therefore, Cheng Dun and I have no relationship with Uncle Lang at all, we are separated by seven or eight generations.

What's more, am I a person who does not distinguish between public and private?

Not to mention the mother's family, it is my own family, which is just the same as meritocracy.

If you don't have that ability, you can never get that position. "

The two cupped their hands and said, "My lord is wise."
