Night Emperor

Chapter 381: Turtle County Magistrate

Views:

As soon as Ye Xiaotian saw the graceful back, he knew it was the county magistrate's wife. He didn't pay much attention to it. He had met Mrs. Ya here before when he came to see the county magistrate. But when he looked into the hall again, he didn't see Hua Qingfeng, so he was a little surprised, stopped quickly, and coughed lightly.

Mrs. Ya clasped her hands in front of her chest, she was secretly anxious, when she suddenly heard a clear cough from behind, she hurriedly turned her head to look, and immediately showed a look of joy, and said joyfully: "Ye Dianshi! It's really you! Thank God, you are really safe , You really came back."

Ye Xiaotian bowed to her, and respectfully said: "Your Majesty Ye Xiaotian, I have seen your wife. Ah... but I don't know where the county lord is?"

Mrs. Ya hurriedly said: "Ye Dianshi, please sit down first. Tweety, let's have some tea!"

Ye Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, but thanked him for his seat. Madam Ya sat on the main seat, and said to him: "My poor husband went to visit the master Wang's house, and he hasn't come back yet, but I have already sent someone to meet him."

Ye Xiaotian leaned back and said: "Madam is too polite, the county lord is not here, it is okay to come to visit after a while, how dare you work for the county lord to go back and forth in a hurry."

Mrs. Ya said: "It's okay, it's okay. Since Ye Dianshi was arrested and sent to Jinling, my husband and I have been thinking about it day and night, and feel deeply disturbed. Now that Ye Dianshi can come back safely, it is really a great joy. Ye Dianshi has been greatly affected. A wronged person, a clumsy man limited by his ability but unable to protect it with all his strength, is already extremely guilty, so it is nothing to go back and forth."

Ye Xiaotian said in his heart: "This Mrs. Ya has a clever tongue. If Huazhi County has half of his wife who can be a man, I won't fight alone. I can only make him a moral banner."

At this time, Ye Xiaotian took a careful look at Mrs. Ya. He had met Mrs. Ya several times before and after, especially after he settled a life lawsuit for Su Xuntian, he was once invited by Hua Qingfeng and his wife. However, due to etiquette, he didn't pay much attention to Madam Ya, he just thought that the county magistrate's wife was charming and charming.

At this time, there were only two of them in the hall, so he took a careful look at Mrs. Ya, and saw that she was wearing a lavender bijar, which was not old, although it was not luxurious, it was also elegant, and her face was lightly powdered. , radiant and tender white, at first glance it is not more than two decades old, elegant and unconventional, very attractive.

Girls are more delicate and handsome, while young women are uniquely charming. Mrs. Ya is as plump and delicate as a ripe peach, as moist as water and as beautiful as jade. Sitting on the chair, the peaks are swaying, the slender waist is bent, like an autumn grape hanging on the trellis, the style of a mature young woman seems to be undisguised.

Ye Xiaotian regretted secretly: "It's such a delicate flower, but it's stuck on a mound of cow dung, it's still a big mound."

Then I thought again: "Eldest brother, don't say second brother. In the eyes of outsiders, Yingying is probably a flower stuck in cow dung. I just don't know what's going on at Ning'er's house. She said her father has passed away and her mother has always been weak. I don't pay much attention to family matters, and I don't discipline her very strictly. Seeing her wandering around all day, it's true. I hope the Ning'er family won't make our union more difficult..."

Mrs. Ya took a sip of tea lightly, secretly thinking about how to get to the point with Ye Xiaotian, her thoughts turned quickly, she felt that to show sincerity, it is better to be open and honest, she made up her mind, raised her eyes, but saw Ye Xiaotian firmly Looking at her, she seemed thoughtful.

Yaren's tender face warmed up slightly, and he felt annoyed in his heart: "This Ye Dianshi is so rude, I am his boss's wife, how could anyone stare at me like this." But thinking of Ye Xiaotian's real background, he felt relieved, This person cannot be guessed by common sense.

Madam Ya pursed the corners of her lips, looked sideways at Ye Xiaotian slightly, coughed lightly, and said, "Ye Dianshi!"

"Huh? What?"

Ye Xiaotian moved his eyes, slightly confused.

He was fearless, but the repeated setbacks in the love field still made him suspicious, and he began to think wildly: "Could it be that I and Lao Taishan really don't match each other, and our fates are contrary? Ning'er doesn't have Lao Taishan at home. I hope Lao Taishui won’t embarrass us.”

Suddenly hearing Mrs. Ya calling him, Ye Xiaotian hurriedly raised his eyes, but he couldn't help feeling a little dazed that he hadn't reacted yet.

Mrs. Ya knew she was beautiful, but with her status, few people would dare to appreciate her so unscrupulously, let alone show her distraught appearance on such occasions. People who are as unscrupulous as Ye Xiaotian or who don't know how to hide it are really rare.

Mrs. Ya is nearly thirty years old. Although she is beautiful, she also knows that her youth is gradually passing away. Now this Ye Dianshi is only in his early twenties, a few years younger than her brother, but he can be fascinated by her, but it is inevitable that he will be a little bit small. Little pride and satisfaction.

Of course, this is also related to Ye Xiaotian's clear eyes. There is no greed or possessive desire in his eyes. It is probably just an instinctive appreciation for beautiful women and no lustful thoughts. Therefore, Mrs. Ya does not dislike her, but there is something bothered about her. Angry and funny.

Today, she came to meet Ye Xiaotian on behalf of her husband. She originally had important matters to discuss, but it was not to create a small ambiguity. Madam Yi Ya showed a slightly sullen expression, and said in an emphatic tone: "Ye Dianshi was absent-minded, but because he returned to Hu County, he found that the thing was People have changed, and their appearance has changed drastically, so worry in your heart?"

Ye Xiaotian's heart moved, he could sense from this sentence that Mrs. Ya not only came out to appease her husband on behalf of his subordinate who had just returned to Hu County, but also had other purposes. Ye Xiaotian's expression suddenly became focused and serious, and he asked back: "It's not surprising to feel this way after leaving an official for several months. My wife is in Hu County, but I also feel that Hu County is already a thing and a person." Is it wrong?"

Hua Qingfeng sat resentfully in the sedan chair, the curtains of the sedan chair were all covered, forming a relatively closed space, and only in such an environment could he let go of all pretense and show his true nature.

"Wang Ning, this old dog! He attached himself to the Tian family, so he thought he could manipulate his officials at will? Huh! The Tian family also has to look up to the imperial court. I really think that Guizhou can be placed outside the law of Tianwei Wang! And Xu Boyi, as if It's the second Meng Qingwei! No! Meng Qingwei still depends on Qi Mu's face, he is even more domineering than Meng Qingwei!"

The more Hua Qingfeng thought about it, the angrier she became, she gritted her teeth, and her resentment was beyond words. Today he went to visit Master Wang, in the name of a false visit, and wanted to ease the relationship between the two parties, especially in the face of Xu Boyi's pressing every step of the way. He hoped that Master Wang could mediate and stop Xu Boyi from such a naked act of seizing power. .

But Wang Ning, that old fox, kept pretending to be confused in the face of Hua Qingfeng's hints. When Hua Qingfeng had to speak out, he even refused him politely and asked him to be a mud-bodied county magistrate honestly. .

Thinking of Wang Ning's words at this time, Hua Qingfeng still felt her face burning hot. Wang Ning made it very clear that although you Mr. Hua successfully passed the last exam, the longest you can do it is in Hu County. One term, it is impossible to be re-elected endlessly here as a county Zhengyin. Why do you think so much

According to Wang Ning, it was not that he, the former Mengxian Cheng, and the current Xu Xiancheng did their best to help the magistrate take care of everything and govern Huxian County. With Hua Zhixian's ability, Huxian County was able to suppress Huxian without causing major disturbances. ? You have at most two years before you have to resign or be transferred, and it is better for everyone to live in peace.

Although what Wang Ning said was not so straightforward, the words were still tactful and polite, but the meaning was exactly that, and Hua Qingfeng's face was red when he said it at the time. Yes, he still has almost two years in office, and his term in Hu County is over, but who wants to be a shepherd, and never feel a sense of existence

What's more, he is still young, he was born as a Jinshi, and he has guarded this "Xintuan" land for the imperial court for so long. With all this hard work, any achievement will give him a bright future. Doesn't he want to go further, he doesn't want to be Famous official? However, since he arrived in Hu County, he was restrained and could no longer move.

Meng Qingwei died, and he struggled to free himself. Just as he was about to cheer up, Xu Boyi came again, with a bigger background and greater ambition than Meng Qingwei. He was restrained again, It's not that he doesn't want to fight Xu Boyi, but he really can't fight.

It seems that none of the sage books that he had read before could be used. He was too lacking in understanding of world affairs and inexperienced. Whenever Xu Boyi wanted to take away the power in his hands, he didn’t think there was any problem with the reasons he used, but when he When it feels like everything is under control, it quickly becomes apparent that it is out of control.

His power comes from the imperial court, but he can't do anything without people. Without people, his power cannot be exercised, but people are conquered and bought by Xu Boyi one by one. In the end, he became a lonely family. It's the emperor, and at this level, he can only go out of the palace by decree. What's more, he is only a county magistrate.

Wang Ning, Xu Boyi... Hua Qingfeng hated these two deputies who single-handedly pushed him away, but... what can he do

Hua Qingfeng slumped on the back, closed his eyes, and thought quietly, he knew that Ye Xiaotian would be back soon, and this was also a reliance for him to visit Master Wang and make a legitimate request. Will consider the variable Ye Xiaotian, but...

Wang Ning's words echoed in his ears again: "Master, what do you think in today's Hu County, even if Ye Xiaotian came back, what can he do? Do you really think that he is the monkey who made a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace?" ? Haha, even if he is a monkey, can he escape from the palm of the Tathagata Buddha? My lord, maintaining the current situation is good for everyone, what do you think?"

"Be good to everyone, be good to everyone..." Hua Qingfeng gradually curled up on the seat, feeling weak all over.

"Master, let's go home."

Suddenly there was a voice outside the sedan chair, Hua Qingfeng agreed feebly, and suddenly thought of something, she sat up straight up and asked anxiously: "Didn't you arrive at the front office?"

The person outside the sedan chair replied: "No, sir, we are going through the back door."

Hua Qingfeng let out a sigh of relief, and praised: "Yes! That's good! You are quite clever."

Hua Qingfeng gently opened a corner of the sedan chair curtain, and watched the sedan chair tremblingly carried into the back door of the county government office.
