County Lieutenant Zhao secretly thought that if this case comes to fruition in his own hands, he will be appreciated by Mr. Zhao. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once he falls into the eyes of Mr. Zhao, is he afraid that he will not be able to rise to the top? It's just Ding Hao's plan to abandon his soldiers to protect his commander. There are a lot of loopholes. If Xu Muchen bites him accidentally, the Ding family will lose everything. Where will Ding Hao go?
I thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but think of the last time my official seal was stolen. Last time I got my official seal back with Ding Hao's help. This time I might be able to get a bigger official seal with Ding Hao's help. As an official, it is extremely difficult to move from a barren land to a rich land. Every promotion is as difficult as climbing to the sky. Such a great opportunity should never be allowed to pass away, so I made a move. He raised his head and said, "So, what do you want me to do for you?"
Ding Hao pointed at the account books scattered everywhere and said: "Ding Hao was ordered by Mr. Ding to help the government clean up the account books. However, all these account books were copied by the government. Please allow Brother Zhao to let me Cleaning up the account books, anything else... I can take care of it myself."
Zhao Xianwei nodded in agreement and said: "Brother Ding, I have always wanted to recruit you. Last time I mistakenly thought you were the young master of the Ding family. I thought you might not be willing to give up your family business and go to Linqing to work as an official, so I never asked you. You mentioned that when I arrived in Bazhou, I sent someone to inquire about it, and I found out that you are a steward of the Ding Mansion. Being an official next to me is much more prestigious than being a steward of the Ding Mansion. Things are going on here, if you want, Then you can come to my door."
Ding Hao felt a little touched in his heart. Most people who have been immersed in officialdom for many years only care about profit and loss. County Lieutenant Zhao is thinking about his own future, and he can also think about my future. This can be regarded as a great deal of friendship.
Seeing that he didn't agree with him, County Lieutenant Zhao persuaded him earnestly: "Kun and Peng are good at flying in the wind, and a wise man should use his strength to fly. Heaven and earth are in harmony, so as to bring down nectar. Leverage the power and do not blame others, so you can choose people." And Ren Shi. I understand the word "borrow" so clearly, so I am not a wise man. How can I borrow the strength of Mr. Ding from my brother? Although I dare not say how big a future I can give you, it is better than yours. There is a better future in Dingjiazhuang. Brother Ding might as well think about it carefully."
Ding Hao thought to himself: "This County Lieutenant Zhao is really thoughtful, but... I have the power of General Guangyuan to draw on. With your power as the County Lieutenant of Linqing, I have no choice but to show my gratitude."
Ding Hao was just thinking about how to decline politely when he heard someone outside the door laughing loudly: "Lieutenant Zhao, what problems did you find in those account books collected from Zhutou Jieku?"
As he spoke, a man in blue official uniform walked through the door with a smile. This man was in his thirties, with a white face and a slight beard, clear facial features, and a friendly and harmless smile on his face, which made people fall in love with him at first sight.
As soon as County Lieutenant Zhao saw this man, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he quickly stepped forward and raised his hands: "Cheng Yasi, if you have something to do, just ask the boy to come over and say hello. If you can help me, please come over."
Ding Hao was puzzled: "Advisor? Adsec is just an official. How can he be compared to County Lieutenant Zhao, who is a serious official. How come he wants to salute that Adsec Cheng?"
Cheng Yasi quickly stepped forward to help County Lieutenant Zhao and said with a smile on his face: "Master Zhao is so polite, Cheng Dexuan can't afford it."
Ding Hao's heart skipped a beat: "It's such a familiar name. Could it be that this little Ashi is actually a famous person in history?"
Cheng Dexuan glanced at Ding Hao and asked, "Who is this?"
County Lieutenant Zhao laughed and said calmly: "This man's name is Ding Hao, and he is a steward of the Ding family in Bazhou. Cheng Yasi, please take a seat quickly. Come and serve tea."
Ding Hao was busy and bowed to return the courtesy: "Ding Hao, a humble citizen, meet Mr. Cheng."
Cheng Dexuan smiled and said: "Cheng is just an official and cannot be called an adult. County Lieutenant Zhao, you summoned the Ding family steward to inquire about the case in person? Have you made any progress here now?"
County Lieutenant Zhao said calmly: "There are so many account books in Zhutou Jieku's account, and they are so complicated that it is difficult to check them. This Ding Hao is the inspector of Jieku of Ding family, so I called him here and wanted him to report here."
Under the supervision of the government officials, the account books were sorted out one by one, transcribed again, and confirmed by Xu Muchen, the storekeeper of the Jieku, and then the subordinate staff who were good at accounting were sent to review them again..."
Cheng Dexuan looked at the messy account books in the room and said with a wry smile: "This is the only way. It's just that we need to send a few capable policemen to take good care of these account books to make sure nothing is lost."
County Lieutenant Zhao smiled broadly and agreed repeatedly.
Ding Hao saw the two discussing the matter, and it was inconvenient for him to be present, so he hurriedly stood up and left. After leaving the magistrate's office, he went to the next door and turned around to look for Xiangzhu'er's carriage. In just one step, his mind lit up and he suddenly remembered
So here’s the origin of Cheng Dexuan. It’s him! Cheng Dexuan, it turns out that this man is the famous emperor’s killer!
Meng Chang, the King of Shu who "disarmed all 140,000 people", died of a sudden illness after a banquet shortly after surrendering to the Song Dynasty. He died strangely and the cause of death is unknown. Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty, who "the motherland cannot bear to look back at the bright moon", died after surrendering to the Song Dynasty
Due to the huge poison of "Zhangji", his whole body shrank into a ball, and he was miserable. Behind these two mysterious deaths of emperors, there was a mysterious figure of Cheng Dexuan.
The founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, died suddenly and mysteriously. His successor was the biggest suspect, Zhao Guangyi. Historians were always wary of emperors, so their writings were a little vague, but it was probably because they were unwilling to do so.
Then there is a sudden record: on the night when Taizu died violently, Cheng Dexuan braved the heavy snow and stood under the Kaifeng government office late at night, seemingly expecting something.
On the night of Zhao Kuangyin's sudden death in the palace, Cheng Yasi of Kaifeng Prefecture stayed up most of the night and braved the heavy snow to run to the yamen gate and stand there. What does this mean? This seemingly superfluous record is very interesting.
When Ding Hao made his way to the Bazhou government office gate, his memory was touched and he suddenly remembered this period of history.
Three emperors died mysteriously, two of them were the kings who lost their country, and one was the king who founded the country. If their deaths were all related to Cheng Dexuan, wouldn't Cheng Yasi deserve the title of an emperor killer?
The more Ding Hao thought about it, the more regretful he felt: "It's a pity that if I had remembered his identity earlier, I should have stayed a little longer to see this person with my own eyes. Among future generations, I am the only one who has the blessing. This is the first person I have ever seen.
A famous person recorded in history books, I'm afraid I will never have the chance to see another one in the future. But...it's really strange. In the case of Magistrate Liu, Zhao Pu sent people, and Zhao Guangyi also sent people. The sky is full of gods and Buddhas.
Yes, no wonder County Lieutenant Zhao said that the water is deep and muddy and cannot be crossed, so I have to be more careful."
The carriage stopped under the city gate, and Ding Hao and Xi Zhu'er boarded the Bazhou City. The setting sun illuminated the sky and the earth in a golden color. Standing on the high city, the villages far and near and the rushing river were far away.
Against the background of the faint green mountains, there is movement in the stillness, and stillness in the movement, forming a very harmonious and beautiful picture.
Smell Zhu'er asked: "Dumb, it's getting late. Should we go to Zhutou to unload the warehouse now or where should we go?"
Ding Hao said: "I will go to the inn to stay for a while, and tomorrow I will go to Zhutou to clear the warehouse and go to the Yamen to handle the accounts. You can't help me here, so you should rush back and help the young master get medicine every day, and at the same time help us all."
, Besides, you have to help me take care of Dong'er."
Xian Zhuer agreed and asked, "Did Miss Dong agree to go with you?"
A smile appeared on Ding Hao's face: "She is a soft and timid little girl. Even if she has the intention, she would not dare to say anything. As long as the trouble of Dong Li's family is solved, are you afraid that she will not come with me? Liu Shi
Once they failed to frame me, the handle was still in my hand. Now that I have helped the Ding family solve this difficult matter, Master Ding will definitely have to repay me. It is not difficult to take her away. But it is me.
I'm afraid I'm reluctant to go to my mother's place, but after these days, she already knows my determination. Now she no longer advises me to stay, and she doesn't mention the matter of starting a family or starting a business. How about your place, Lan'er is willing to follow me
Are you leaving? I heard that you two are getting along very well now."
"That's right," Xi Zhu'er said with a cheerful smile, "it's a good thing you gave me the job of delivering medicine, otherwise it would be inconvenient for me to meet her while she is working in the house."
"Have you told her that you are leaving Ding Mansion with me?"
"No, you are still the manager of the Ding Mansion now. Who would respect you, fear you, and listen to your orders if you make it known in advance? Besides, you and Mrs. Dong are not sure of each other yet, so I can't talk nonsense. But
...I believe Lan'er likes me. She is a hired servant and can leave at any time. You are General Cheng's great benefactor and will be reused in Guangyuan. I have thought about it. I don't want to be a high official. As long as
Being able to run a small school and manage a dozen people is more prestigious than being a slave here. Lan'er is willing to work with me now. I can have a greater future, so there is nothing she wouldn't like."
Xian Zhuer said happily, and then said: "As for you, you are a person who has been enlightened by the Fox Fairy. If you follow General Cheng, you can at least become a general in the future."
Ding Hao laughed dumbly: "General? I really haven't thought about wearing armor and holding a gun and fighting on the battlefield. I don't have any martial arts skills. I'm afraid I will die in one battle. Don't think that generals are just leaders of troops. The northwest region is still a vassal town.
The territories and vassal towns are controlled by the military and government, just like the little emperor under the great emperor. To work for General Cheng, he does not necessarily have to lead troops."
Xizhu'er said: "Then you want to be a civil servant, like County Lieutenant Zhao? Well... that's not bad, although it doesn't look as majestic as a general."
Ding Hao smiled and scolded: "What kind of knowledge do you need to be a civil servant? Can I pass the exam? Don't always think about whether you can succeed in becoming an official?"
Xizhu'er asked curiously: "If you don't become an official, what will you do?"
Ding Hao held on to the wall, looked far into the distance, and said leisurely: "Look at the rolling mountains. The mountains are so high that it makes people look up, but they are very cold at high places. Look at the rushing rivers and the huge waves that make people dizzy, but it
I can't help myself; I don't have any ambitions, I just want to be like a lake with sparkling blue water, quiet and quiet, I can do whatever I want. It's good to have people to appreciate it, but I'll be happy when no one appreciates it. When the spring breeze blows, thousands of lotuses bloom.
Open, isn’t it a surprise?”
Xianzhuer rubbed his nose and thought to himself: "My mother, this is so sour. She said he was fat and immediately started breathing. If you don't want to be a civil servant, why did you drop your book bag? It makes me unable to understand. What a mountain!"
Water, lake, everything can be yours. What kind of people are the officials in the Song Dynasty? They were wrapped in yellow cloth and forced to become emperors. Great heroes like the officials cannot do anything by themselves.
Do you still want to do whatever you want? Just be pretty in front of me!"

PS: I was dealing with some trivial matters over the weekend, so I didn’t have much coded manuscripts. I was very tired from having too many things to do at work yesterday, and my head was aching due to a stuffy nose, which affected my coding speed. I can only dedicate one chapter today. Please forgive me, readers.
