Chapter 343 Let's Suppress Bandits

   After resting in Chenzhou for five days, everyone rested and purchased another batch of supplies. Wen Jiuxiao ordered to set off tomorrow.

  Fan Huailiang was well informed, Wen Jiuxiao had given an order, and he would arrive in the afternoon.

He is the parent official of Chenzhou City, and he has been very considerate these few days. He sent people to deliver local specialties every day, and he also wiped out the Tiger Village together. came in.

  Oh, by the way, Tiger Village was destroyed, but the big master escaped. He was injured and fell off the cliff, but He Xiaodie, who was careful, found a rope hanging down. She followed the rope down to the bottom of the cliff, but found no one, so she must have escaped.

After exchanging some pleasantries, Fan Huailiang said: "I heard that Master Xiaowen is going to leave tomorrow, why don't you stay a little longer? It's good for me to be a landlord. Even though our south is remote, there are still beautiful mountains and rivers. Some."

   "Thank you, Mr. Fan, for your kindness. This trip has been delayed for a long time, and the next official is still rushing to take up his post in Shanyun County. Let's visit Chenzhou again if we have the chance." Wen Jiuxiao said the scene.

  Fan Huailiang was a little regretful, "Then let's come to Japan to grow up." He gave many gifts, and led the army, professors of state studies, promotion officials, inspectors and others to send Wen Jiuxiao and his party far away.

  He also praised everyone, "This Lord Xiaowen is really handsome and extraordinary! Shanyun County has him as the county magistrate, and this is also the blessing of the people of Shanyun County."

  He has a very good impression of Wen Jiuxiao. He has a prominent background, is capable, but is very humble. Even if the official position is lower than him, he is still a first-rank Marquis. In front of his poor family, he is not arrogant at all. He even calls himself a low-ranking official, which gives him enough face. Such a person has a bright future!

   So much so that when he returned to the mansion, he still praised his wife Lu, "As expected of a young master of the Hou mansion, such a man, such a background, tusk!"

Mrs. Lu glanced at him, and said: "Mrs. Wen is also very easy-going, not at all superior to a wealthy family. She saw that I was interested in her clothes, and she helped me draw a lot of clothes that are popular in the capital. Let's do more for my daughter."

  Mr. Lu was very happy. She was only a girl, and she had reached the age of marriage. She naturally wanted to choose a good family for her daughter. However, if you pick someone, the man will also pick you! People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and girls wearing clothes that are popular in the capital will definitely look better.

  Lu Shi is not like her husband, who wants to marry his daughter to the capital. Lu Shi accompanied her husband through his humble beginnings step by step, so he naturally understands how hard it is to be an official. Husband wants to go to Beijing, how can it be so easy? The girl's age is up, and when her husband is promoted to the capital, I don't know when it will be. Wouldn't it be a delay in the flowering period?

  She is more realistic, within the scope of her husband's ability, choose a good family for her daughter, and her life will be smooth, safe, and she will be content!

   "Oh, Madam, how is Madam Guanwen?" Fan Huailiang asked casually.

   "Beauty! Stunning beauty!" Lu Shi blurted out.

Fan Huailiang raised his eyebrows, and Lu knew he didn't believe it, and said, "Really, I've lived half my life, and I haven't seen anyone comparable to it. That little face is as tender as an egg that has been peeled off its shell. The waist is so thin, you can’t tell that she has given birth to a child. She looks seventeen or eighteen years old, but her son is five or six years old.” She was a ignorant person, and she looked straight at it at the time. .

As soon as the distinguished guest from the capital was mentioned, Lu's interest rose, "Master, you have been seen with your own eyes. Don't look at Mrs. Wen's delicate life, but she has a very generous conversation and a good personality. You can talk to me. .Unlike some people who insist on their own identity and wish they could make eighteen detours in one sentence."

  The Lu family traveled around with her husband, and naturally dealt with the female relatives of various families. What kind of things have you never seen? She came from an ordinary background, her father was Fan Huailiang's wife, and when he was young, he took office with his husband, but he was often neglected. Even now, she is the highest-ranking female family member in Chenzhou City, but she still looks down on her in her heart because of her noble background. Naturally, she will not do anything on the surface. It is the small words of running people, which is really annoying.

  Think she doesn't understand? She might not understand it when she was young, but now she has been with her husband as an official for twenty years, how could she not understand it? What happened to being tall? Isn't the married person not as high as her husband's official position? If she wasn't afraid of causing trouble to her husband, she would have broken up with them long ago.

   What the **** are they all, and they still call themselves noble daughters of the capital, but they are just unfavored concubines, what are they so proud of! Mrs. Wen is the real noble person, she is Mrs. Yipinhou, and her eyes don't reach the top of her head. On the contrary, he spoke very politely, and didn't mean to look down on her at all.

   This is the real lady from a famous family! I just don't know which family in the capital Mrs. Wen came from.

  Fan Huailiang listened to his wife's thoughts, with a faint smile on his face, "Since we can talk about one thing, then we will communicate more in the future."

   "Is this still a master?" Lu gave him a sideways glance, and then said with emotion, "It's really kind and righteous for Mrs. Wen to accompany her husband from thousands of miles to take office in this remote village."

   "Didn't Madam follow her husband for 20 years? Isn't it more affectionate and righteous? These years, Madam has worked hard." Fan Huailiang is grateful to his wife who accompanied him through hardships.

   "Can it be the same? I am rough-skinned and thick-skinned, and I am a delicate young lady." Lu Shi gave her husband a white look.

  The reason why she worked so hard to follow her husband was because he respected her and treated her well. Other officials, there are groups of concubines in the backyard, but she has been the only one beside her husband for so many years, and all the children under their knees are born in her stomach. Based on this, she is willing to suffer.

   "Why is it different? From my husband's point of view, it's the same." Fan Huailiang said seriously, and at this point, he solemnly bowed to Mrs. Lu, "Madam is troubled!"

   "Look at you, what is this for? I'm not afraid that the child will see the joke." Lu's mouth was angry, but he was very happy in his heart. To be able to marry such a husband, her life is worth it.

  Wen Jiuxiao, who was going to Shanyun County, was called into the carriage by Yu Zhi, "Third Master, I think the first thing you do when you take office should be to suppress bandits."

  Wen Jiuxiao was a little puzzled, "Why?"

"Quick money!" Yu Zhi said confidently, "We've seen what's going on in Chenzhou. It's returning to the state capital. There are only two schools, and there are only 20 students in the state school. Shanyun County will only be better than Chenzhou. The state is even worse, what do you want to do without asking for money?"

  Wen Jiuxiao was thoughtful, but also asked a question, "How can there be so many bandits?" Along the way, he also encountered a fierce tiger village.

  As for Shanyun County, there are probably no bandits. They are all so poor, who will the bandits rob? grab what?

"Look for it! The bandits can jump in front of you by themselves?" Yu Zhi was very dissatisfied, and tried to persuade him, "The pattern should be bigger, and you have to look outside the inherent box. We only encountered a fierce tiger village on this journey. Because most of our journey is through the official road, and there is another reason, we have a large number of people, and those guards are all strong and strong. Generally, bandits dare not provoke them when they see them. It’s not that there are no bandits, but that they didn’t show up .”

  In ancient times, people were afraid of meeting bandits when they went out to take exams. How could it be so peaceful outside?

"Send someone to inquire, don't you know? Even if Shanyun County is so poor that there are no bandits, it's the same in other places! Let's go quietly, come back quietly, who knows we did it? We did it Good deeds don’t leave a name, and they can be counted in one fell swoop." Suppressing the bandits for the local government, I got the spoils myself, without the bandits who robbed the way, the common people and caravans are also safe, and it can also drive economic circulation.

  Yu Zhi winked at Wen Jiuxiao, "Do you want to do it?"

   Wen Jiuxiao's mouth twitched, he definitely did it. But he was very clear in his heart, don't look at his daughter-in-law's high-sounding words, she is actually looking at the supplies in the bandit's den.

   No matter, in Lizhou, she has thrown out so much money, and if she is not allowed to make up for it, I don't know what will happen.

  Well, his family Zhizhi, if he is the emperor, he must be an emperor who loves to steal his home.
