Chapter 500 The Great Chaos in the Northern Territory Still Needs King Su
In Xinghuayi, Xiaoliu stood in front of Su Lu with a happy look.
Su Ge said teasingly from the side: "Hey, isn't this the groom's official? His energy and spirit are completely different."
Xiaoliu smiled shyly. He was actually a little embarrassed to say this. He and Cuihua had originally not planned to steal the bride. Who knew that something unexpected happened, so he gave away a hundred taels of silver.
So she sent Cuihua to her home.
Su Lu smiled and said: "It's a good thing, you are really a good young man. What's the shame of marrying a wife? Do you want me to give you a three-month leave and go home to finish the matter?"
Xiao Liu quickly refused.
"Your Majesty Mingjian, before my subordinates came here, my parents and my wife told me that they should serve the prince well. Since I am an official and a member of the family, I have enjoyed many benefits, so naturally I have to fight with my life."
Su Lu nodded, "Your parents and wife are very open-minded. Your boy's hundred taels were not spent in vain."
Su Ge spoke next to him: "Your Majesty, we have been resting here for two days. Since there is nothing going on between the two rivers and the armistice is about to be reached in the West, we should go back to the capital."
Su Lu glanced at the sunny sky outside, "Okay, in this case, let's set off for the capital. After fighting and dying for the Han Kingdom for so many years, I have strong generals in all four directions who can take charge of their own affairs, and I can enjoy it in peace.
It’s old age.”
Next to him, Su Ge chuckled: "My lord, you are still young. If you were to enjoy your old age now, we old people like us would all be buried up to our necks in the soil."
The troops were packed up and set off for the capital.
Before leaving, Yao Wei, the chief executive of Xinghua Station, came to see him off.
Su Lu told Yao Wei: "You are a good Yi Cheng. You are capable and well-organized. I wonder if you can be as good as Yi Cheng when you serve as the magistrate of a county?"
Yao Wei's face suddenly turned red, but after a moment, he understood that this was the prince's test for him. If he could handle it to the prince's satisfaction, then the county order might be stable.
Bowing deeply to the ground, Yao Wei said respectfully:
"Your Majesty is aware that I have never been a county magistrate before, so I dare not say that I will definitely do well. However, I will abide by the motto of eating the emperor's salary, sharing the emperor's worries, and doing as much as I get, if I
When an official holds the position of county magistrate, he must do his best to make the villagers prosperous and healthy."
Su Lu nodded and pointed to Xiao Liu next to him.
"This is my bodyguard Wang Xiaoliu. His home is in Yaoshan Village not far away. Old Yao, you are well-known in Yongle, so please take care of it for me so that Xiaoliu can serve me wholeheartedly at the front."
Yao Wei smiled broadly: "Your Majesty ordered me, and I will understand."
Su Lu waved his whip and the horse moved forward.
Yao Wei bowed his head and bid farewell to Su Lu.
Su Lu's words carried along the wind.
"Suge, please order. I recommend Yao Wei of Xinghua Station to be the county magistrate of Yongle. Yao Wei has a good reputation in Yongle and is a virtuous official. Yongle is the lower county. Yao Wei can be moved to the eighth grade county magistrate."
Yao Wei was shocked and burst into tears. This was because he had met a close friend.
He fell down and kowtowed, and Yao Wei's voice reached to the sky.
"Your Majesty, Yao Wei, would like to thank you for your kindness. If you don't repay me for your great kindness, you will die with your heart and brains shattered."
Yao Wei watched the team go away, then got up and wiped the tears from his face.
Several postmen came over in a hurry, congratulated and said:
"Congratulations, sir, on your promotion to the eighth rank of county magistrate."
"Congratulations on your promotion, Sir"
"Sir, Mr. Li doesn't dare to disobey your orders anymore and bully the market."
"Now that you have become the county magistrate, this Xinghuayi, no, this Yongle will only get better and better."
Several postmen congratulated Yao Wei with glowing faces. He has fallen into the prince's eyes and has a bright future. He must find a way to hold the prince's thigh this time.
Yao Wei flicked his robe sleeves and said in a clear tone: "Everyone has worked with me for many years, and I will never forget it. However, I have an ugly saying in front of me. If this matter comes from someone's mouth today,
, Don’t blame Yao Wei for being ignorant.”
On this day, because he got the news that his family was about to be promoted, Yao Wei was naturally excited and wanted to tell the world the good news. However, he was calm and knew that all this was empty talk until the imperial decree was officially issued.
After handling official duties for the day, Yao Wei returned home and sat down on the Grand Master's chair in the main hall. His wife brought him tea.
Yao Wei took a sip and clicked his tongue.
The wife said strangely next to her: "A broken tea produced in Linxian County made you drink the taste of Longjing. Tell me, what good things happened to you today."
Yao Wei still wanted to maintain his dignity, "No, it's nothing good."
My wife is rough-tempered and has a big mouth. If she knew about it, people from all over the world would know about it.
But even if he didn't tell the people closest to him, Yao Wei always felt as if a big tank was about to explode in his heart.
When the wife heard this, she expressed disdain: "I'm not telling you to pull him down, but I'm telling you that you can't do anything illegal or disciplinary. I've returned all the money your subordinates gave you."
Yao Wei jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on: "As a gift, Mavericks and others sent money to our house?"
The wife nodded and sat down on the Taishi chair on the other side, her tone full of strangeness.
"This is a New Year celebration. Not only did they bring gifts, but they were all heavy gifts. Four-color seasonal fruits, pastries for a new home, and money for congratulations are not light."
Yao Wei sat down slumped, and his mind immediately thought of his answer when the prince left.
"I may become an official."
Yao Wei did not mention the gift again and decided to tell his wife the news.
The wife was stunned for a moment: "You are Yi Cheng, aren't you already an official? Yes, are you going to be promoted? Will you be the treasurer of the county, or the county chief below the county chief?"
"county magistrate"
"County magistrate?"
The wife looked at Yao Wei in confusion, stood up with a cry, and made the tea cups and saucers on the table jump.
"How is it possible? How many levels of promotion is this better?"
Yao Wei smiled bitterly: "You have to meet a noble person, and everything you do will be seen by the noble person."
The wife immediately became anxious: "Then it's undecided. How can you tell me? I...what am I doing? I can't hide the news. If it leaks out, the court will not issue an order in the end."
But it’s embarrassing.”
Capital City, Imperial Palace, Qinzheng Palace.
Li Qing closed his eyes and leaned back against the throne, his cheeks full of anger.
Zhou Yuan's voice echoed in the hall.
"There was an uprising in the Four Royal Courts of North Tule, Hanshui City fell, Hunhe Interchange was besieged, news about Tianlan City was unknown, Gongqian Pass was severely attacked, Yumen Pass was also besieged, and the Northland was in danger."
"I would like to ask your Majesty to issue an order to ask Prince Anguo to take action to suppress the rebellion in the north."
Pang De also knelt on the ground: "I ask for your Majesty's permission to ask King Su to take action to suppress the rebellion in the north."
Li Qing opened his eyes and looked at the ministers kneeling in the hall, his voice was cold and solemn.
"The barbarians in the West have just been calmed down. Your Majesty has been away fighting for more than a year. I haven't seen you for two years. Your wife, children and parents are all here. Why don't you consider my feelings for my husband?"
