Looking at the woman sitting in the hall, Zhou Yong, the prefect of Qingyuan, smiled and almost lost his eyes.
Unlike the common people, he knew that Miss Jun had arrived at Hebei West Road a long time ago, and it was not that he had not thought of asking Miss Jun to come here.
But when he heard that Daming Prefecture's Kaide Prefecture had sent invitations, Prefect Zhou also stopped thinking.
Although Qingyuan Mansion is located to the north in the middle of Hebei West Road, Zhending Mansion not far away can be invaded by gold thieves. Qingyuan Mansion is not a safe place either.
It doesn't matter if other doctors come. Why would someone like Miss Jun take such a risk?
Moreover, it is a long way from Xiangzhou to Qingyuan Prefecture. Compared with invitations from other places, they have no advantage at all.
Unexpectedly, Miss Jun actually came over. When he saw the suicide note delivered, Prefect Zhou thought he was dreaming, but the shopkeeper of Deshengchang Bank repeatedly stated that he could only believe it with suspicion.
It wasn't until he saw the woman sitting in front of him that Magistrate Zhou was convinced that he had really caught the pie falling from the sky.
"I didn't expect Miss Jun to come to our place. I found out the news too late and couldn't greet her," he couldn't help but say.
The word "welcoming" should not be used for this woman. She always comes on orders, and her rank is higher than that of the prefect Zhou.
But in the face of people's lives and political achievements, who cares about this? If Miss Jun comes here this year, he will probably be promoted to a higher official position in the future.
"I didn't plan to come," Miss Jun said.
These words made Prefect Zhou stunned for a moment, and Lei Zhonglian also looked slightly sideways.
This is embarrassing.
How to pick up?
"After finishing my stay in Xiangzhou, I planned to return to the capital, but I received a letter from Duke Cheng Guo." Miss Jun continued.
These words made Prefect Zhou stunned again, while Lei Zhonglian frowned.
Letter? Cheng Guogong?
"Gong Cheng Guo invited me to vaccinate the people of Qingyuan Prefecture." Miss Jun looked calm and candid. "He said that the people in the North are suffering a lot. They have been robbed and often live in fear in the center of the invasion. If we can solve some of their illnesses,
To save some children is a blessing to the people, and a blessing to the North. After all, talent is the foundation of a country, and only by having a continuous supply of people can we fight against the golden thieves."
Magistrate Zhou opened his mouth wide when he heard this, and his expression became solemn and excited.
Lei Zhonglian's expression was dull, and his eyes could not conceal his admiration.
I haven't mentioned this before. Was this made up on the fly?
admire.
This lie came out casually without changing his expression. I really didn’t realize that a quiet girl like Miss Jun had such ability.
Moreover, this is giving Cheng Guogong a reputation in vain.
Is this because of Mr. Ling Jiu?
Isn't it enough to just give him money? Is it also necessary to give money to his father?
Over there, Magistrate Zhou immediately regained his composure.
"I didn't expect that it turned out to be Duke Cheng." He maintained an excited expression and his eyes were clear, "Gong Cheng is really considerate for the people of the North. I am so ashamed."
To say he was ashamed was a bit exaggerated, but it was also a bit embarrassing. He had thought about it but did not take action, while the Duke of Guo invited people without saying a word.
Speaking of which, they, the civil servants, have always looked down on military generals. When they came to the North, they were suppressed by Duke Cheng, and they were inevitably dissatisfied. Now that troubles have happened one after another in the two palaces in the North, although they were panicked and regretful, they still felt a sense of revenge in their hearts.
I'll let you become a domineering Duke, let you be arrogant, let's see what you pull at me, you'll be embarrassed this time.
I heard that the Jin Yiwei inspector sent by the imperial court would definitely investigate when the time came. Everyone held their breath and did not say bad things about Duke Cheng, but they definitely did not want to say good things about him.
Sometimes the silence of civil servants can also be a killing knife.
Now that he heard that Miss Jun was actually invited by Duke Cheng Guo, and specifically named Qingyuan Mansion, Magistrate Zhou had to think about it.
Duke Cheng Guo actually missed him so much.
"Mr. Cheng Guo wants me to keep it a secret and not to mention his invitation." Miss Jun added another sentence, "Perhaps she is afraid that I will look bad if I refuse."
This is not a matter of face, it is a favor. If you don't mention Cheng Guogong, it is him, Zhou Yong, who invited Miss Jun.
Magistrate Zhou immediately knew what to do, said some words of gratitude, and expressed his concern and anxiety about the vaccination. In the end, even he believed that Miss Jun was the one who invited him, and he believed that Miss Jun was also convinced.
Think so.
Sure enough, Miss Jun nodded in agreement with what he said.
This little girl is only sixteen or seventeen years old. He also knows her father, a frail and honest county magistrate, and her maternal grandfather's wealthy businessman. There is no doubt that this little girl has family skills, but everything else is caused by
It must be handled by Deshengchang Bank.
For this little girl who only knows how to do things and doesn't know how to deal with people and people's calculations, Prefect Zhou is very confident to let her follow her own ideas.
"It's really hard, Governor Zhou." Miss Jun said softly.
Magistrate Zhou sighed.
"The job of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor is to serve as a parent's official. This is the duty. It is worth the hard work to invite Miss Jun to serve as my official." He said.
Miss Jun smiled slightly and said nothing. The man next to Miss Jun looked at him.
Prefect Zhou also glanced at him. This man must be a follower, but why did his eyes look a little strange.
When the magistrate was about to say something, there were rapid footsteps outside the door, accompanied by a loud voice.
"Damn, this is a disgrace."
Magistrate Zhou's expression suddenly darkened.
"General Peng, what are you talking about?" he shouted, looking at the general who walked in, "Miss Jun is here."
Just after you complimented Miss Jun, you came up with a shameful sentence. Little girls are the most concerned about it. Aren't you making people misunderstood?
Hearing the word Miss Jun, the general who entered quickly put away his angry face, smiled and saluted solemnly.
Miss Jun stood up and returned the courtesy.
"I'm scolding those bastards. They can't even keep a sign on the city gate. I don't know if the city gate has been stolen." The general couldn't help but said angrily.
Prefect Zhou obviously knew about this, but he didn't think it was a big deal.
"How could this not be a problem? That was a notice posted on the city gate. There were so many soldiers guarding the city gate day and night, but no one noticed it, and people took things away from under their noses silently. This
Doesn’t it mean that people can come and go freely? If this is a gold thief, then our entire Qingyuan Mansion would have been captured last night,” the general shouted.
Magistrate Zhou's expression changed again and he cursed in his heart.
In front of a little girl who said that gold thieves had taken away Qingyuan Mansion, if he didn't scare him away immediately, then the people of Qingyuan Mansion wouldn't tear him apart.
"This is a small matter, just a notice." He said hurriedly, "Maybe it was blown away by the wind, picked up by someone, or stolen. Don't talk nonsense without checking clearly, you are disturbing the public sentiment."
The general suddenly came back to his senses and nodded hurriedly as he looked at this teenage girl who could be blown away by a gust of wind.
"Yes, I'll look for it again," he said, "It was quite windy yesterday."
Miss Jun listened quietly all the time, without fear or questioning, and even smiled and nodded when appropriate.
"Miss Jun, you go and have a rest. The vaccination will begin tomorrow." Magistrate Zhou said with a smile, while winking at the clerks and maids in the room.
The maidservant hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way, and Miss Jun thanked her and followed.
Magistrate Zhou kept smiling as he watched Miss Jun out of sight before twirling his beard.
"Miss Jun really went to our camp to vaccinate herself? How embarrassing. Let's come and line up." The general rubbed his hands and laughed.
In addition to conveying the news of Miss Jun's arrival, Deshengchang also arranged the specific operational rules for vaccination, including queuing at a fixed location and paying the fee. However, he also made an exception, that is, the children of officers and soldiers do not need to come to the government office to queuing, so that they can be concentrated to the maximum extent.
Just arrange the numbers in the forts, and Miss Jun will go there in person to vaccinate the children of officers and soldiers.
This is a great benefit. They don't have to squeeze in with everyone else, which makes people jealous.
Prefect Zhou didn't understand it at first, but now he understands it.
Since Duke Cheng Guo invited Miss Jun here, of course the officers and soldiers must be taken care of.
The prefect Zhou will not snatch this benefit.
"Just follow Miss Jun's arrangements." He said, and gave the general a warning look, "Be careful what you say, don't say everything."
The general responded hurriedly and watched Magistrate Zhou leave happily with his hands behind his back.
"But it was really stolen." He said to himself, looking depressed and confused, "Is there such a powerful thief in Qingyuan Mansion?"
It was dark the next day, and the gate of the government office was closed, but the side doors on both sides were opened, and teams of officers and soldiers lined up in long lines to maintain order.
Although there were officers and soldiers monitoring the procession, the team was still in chaos from time to time, and the noise and laughter were even more noisy.
The chaos on Fuya Street early in the morning was like a temple fair.
Farther down the street, several people reined in their horses.
"Master Jin, this woman is really free." Several men said.
Jin Shiba twirled his short beard, seeming annoyed and amused at the same time.
"It doesn't matter, we can afford to wait," he said.
