Fortunate Young Gentleman

"Isn't this Wei Bantou? What are you doing here?" Peng Chen turned around and saw Wei San, rolled up his sleeves and said, "The county government is so busy, and you still have time to be in a daze here. Are you passively slacking off and want to be lazy..."

Wei San patted his head and said, "Captain Peng, I suddenly remembered that there is still a dispute in Zhangjia Village. I will go to coordinate it immediately..."

Although Ping'an County is located in the capital, there are not many major events on weekdays.

First of all, this is the foot of the emperor in the capital, and the probability of major cases happening is very low. Even if it really happens, there are Jingzhao Prefecture and the Ministry of Justice above. When there is no arrangement from above, the county government usually just adjusts neighborhood disputes and catches thieves.

These things are not taken seriously by the yamen runners and constables. It's not a matter of life and death. How can it be comfortable to run around outside than to sit in the class room?

But in the past two days, things have changed a little. Some constables in the county government would rather run around outside than sit in the class room and enjoy themselves.

At least outside, you won't be punished for not wearing a hat, sitting in an incorrect posture, or farting while eating.

In two days, all the team leaders who originally belonged to Zhao County Magistrate were replaced, and the reasons were varied, such as ineffective work, passive slacking, stepping left foot first when entering the door, stepping right foot first when entering the door, and so on and so forth...

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the county magistrate was cleaning up the county government. Zhao County Magistrate joined forces with several assistants to secretly trip up Zhong County Magistrate. Unexpectedly, Zhong County Magistrate was more straightforward than them and didn't give Zhao County Magistrate any face. His team in the county government was almost cleaned up within two days.

For these, Zhao County Magistrate had no way to do anything. After all, Zhong County Magistrate was the official seal of a county. The transfer of these yamen runners was just a matter of words for him. It was nothing more than whether he was willing to completely tear his face with Zhao County Magistrate.

In the past, the bailiffs dared to disobey Magistrate Zhong's orders. Anyone who dared to disobey in the past two days would be beaten immediately. In this situation, everyone must keep their eyes open. If they are not careful, they will be killed as an example by Magistrate Zhong.

Wei San dragged his tired body in from outside. When he saw Peng Chen, his body subconsciously trembled.

He kept a certain distance from Peng Chen and said, "Peng, Captain Peng, the thief has been caught."

"Quick action." Peng Chen nodded and said, "Your hat..."

"I wore it!" Wei San's face turned pale, and he hurriedly touched his head and said, "I wore it!"

"Don't be nervous." Peng Chen walked over, helped him adjust his hat, and said, "Remember next time, don't wear it crooked."

Wei San nodded repeatedly: "Yes..., yes, I will remember!"

Peng Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "I have an errand to give you, you may have to run more, be prepared."

Wei San would rather run around outside than go back to the county government office. He was happy and asked, "We are all working for the court, running more is nothing..."

"That's good, it's not much, only a few thousand miles, remember to prepare a few more pairs of shoes."

...

Since Wei San, the leader of the Wei team, accidentally broke his leg while walking, none of the leaders of several important departments in the county government office were people of Zhao Xiancheng.

Although these bailiffs and constables have no status in the county government and can only be used when running errands, it is not enough for Zhao County Magistrate to be alone. Someone must execute his orders. He cannot do everything himself. This time, all his confidants have been replaced. From now on, he will be in the dark and have a hard time in the county government.

County Magistrate’s Office

An official looked at County Magistrate Zhao and asked, "Sir, this time County Magistrate Zhong replaced you and me. We don't know what he will do next time. Are we going to watch it?"

County Magistrate Zhao put down his teacup and said, "Zheng County Magistrate, please be patient. Temporary gains and losses are nothing. Zhong Mingli really thinks that the position of Ping'an County Magistrate is so easy to sit. Let's wait and see. He won't be proud for long."

Zheng County Magistrate thought for a while and said, "Sir, this Zhong County Magistrate seems to have some connections in Beijing. His son-in-law is a new champion and works in the Hanlin Academy. If we do this, will it be..."

County Magistrate Zhao glanced at him and said, "Don't you think it's too late for you and me to say these things now? Do you and I still have room to retreat?"

Zheng County Magistrate sighed and said, "In this case, I will not say more. I will take my leave."

After Zheng County Magistrate left, County Magistrate Zhao picked up the teacup again and put it down after a while.

Because of what happened in the county government office in the past two days, his expression was a little gloomy, and a little helpless.

After all, he was just a county magistrate. Although he had been in the county government office for more than ten years, he was still inferior to the county magistrate. He was still unable to force himself to compete with County Magistrate Zhong.

It was not his wish to fall out with County Magistrate Zhong, but how many things in life can be done according to one's own wishes?

He walked out of the government office and said, "Prepare the sedan chair. I have to go out for a while."

...

Tang Ning and Xiaoyi and Xiaoru walked out of the county government office, looked at them and said, "If you are bored at home, learn to do business with Yaoyao. You have to worry about the family business, and you can't always let others take care of it."

Xiaoru nodded and said, "Miss Yaoyao is already teaching me."

Xiao Yi is not interested in business matters. Xiao Ru is careful and has opened a silk and satin shop before, so she has some experience. Tang Ning does not intend to train her to become a strong woman like Tang Yaoyao, but let her find her daily life. It's good to do something to pass the time.

When the three of them were about to walk out of the county government office, a figure walked over from the front. When they saw them, they lowered their heads and hurriedly walked away.

Xiao Ru asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Miss Zhao?"

Zhong Yi lowered her head, with a sad expression on her face. She had also heard about what happened in the county government in recent days. She didn't know how to face Zhao Yun'er.

"Miss Zhao may have something urgent." Tangning smiled, held their hands, and said, "Let's go back. We don't have anything to do tonight, so why not go for a walk in Tiantianju..."

…

Tangning was sitting in his own check-in room, and Princess Yingying sat quietly opposite him, reading the new volume he had just written.

Tangning did not continue writing. He was thinking about a question.

When he first came to this world, he met Xiaoxiao, who is now his sister. Not long after, she met Fang Xiaoyue. She called "Brother Tangning" and "Brother Tangning" all day long, which can be regarded as His half sister.

When he first came to Beijing, he met Tang Shui. Later, Tang Shui became his sister. Then he met Su Mei, and then Su Mei also became her sister. Seriously, Princess Yingying called him "Okay" Brother" seems to be right.

It seemed that the girls around him, except for Xiao Ru and Xiao Yi, eventually became either his elder sister or his younger sister------This is really a puzzling thing.

By the way, Tang Yaojing also needs to be eliminated. If he has a sister like her, his life will be ruined by him.

Zhao Man put down the two volumes of "Dragon and the Eight Parts" that he had just written, curled his lips and said, "What are you writing about? Why do lovers end up becoming brothers and sisters? How can it be like this..."

Tang Ning didn't even raise her head. She just read the book carefully. If she didn't like it, she just didn't read it. She read the book for free and liked to mess around, so she didn't bother to talk to her.

Zhao Man leaned on the chair, sighed leisurely, and said, "Tell me, why do people have troubles? How great would it be if they were carefree and happy every day?"

Tangning said casually: "Many of people's worries are caused by mediocrity. Don't fight with yourself. Don't argue with stupid people. No matter what they say, just say "Okay, you're right"."

"Where do you get this fallacy..." Zhao Man glanced at him and said, "As long as you are a human being, you will have worries. Even my father has worries. To put it nicely, don't you have worries?"

Tang Ning picked up her pen and continued writing while saying, "Well, you're right, everything you said is right."
