Atmosphere, subtle.
Jiang Shengchu was puzzled at first. What did his new lord's lack of a gun have to do with the fact that the scholar Wenxin had no horse
But, he realized it in a flash.
I inexplicably understood what Shen Tang wanted to express.
Then
And then nothing happened.
Jiang Sheng almost turned pale.
Can such a delicate topic concerning male dignity and the continuation of offspring be discussed casually? Can he listen to it casually
He struggled to find his sanity from his chaotic thoughts.
At the same time, I suddenly felt enlightened.
At first, he was surprised that Mr. Shen's appearance was too gorgeous. Looking at him from all angles, from top to bottom, he clearly had the face of Miss Zhang. After the master said this, he understood. Perhaps it was because he was born without any physical attachments that he had not yet shown any masculine characteristics at this age.
I feel a vague sense of sympathy, but it's hard to express it.
Whether it's sympathy or relief, it's strange.
But Shen Tang just looked at him with a smile, and if he didn't say something, it seemed that he would be unable to explain.
So, Jiang Sheng considered carefully, fearing that he would poke the lord's fragile heart. After all, it was not the lord's intention to make Tian a eunuch.
He speaks well and is very inspiring.
"My lord, Sheng believes that a man's masculinity does not lie in his robes or in the number of his offspring, but lies in his heart, his deeds, and his ability to live up to the heaven and earth. My lord, rest assured, Sheng will not leave you because of this matter, and what happened today will remain secret and will not be spread to any ears!" If the lord were to kill him, he would take the secret into his coffin.
Shen Tang: “???”
Her little face seemed to be drowned in question marks.
What does Jiang Sheng mean by this
She inexplicably suspected that the two of them were not in the same chat channel, but she agreed with Jiang Sheng's unique remarks, and silently raised her favorability rating for Jiang Sheng from failing to passing.
"Xian Deng's words are really eye-opening!"
Jiang Sheng got a good score on his answer sheet.
But, troubles also came along.
My lord is a eunuch, born without heirs.
If the business you build is just a short-lived splash in the troubled times, it doesn't matter whether you have offspring or not. But if you are lucky enough to gain a foothold, the fact that you don't have offspring will become the root of unrest. He thought again, the lord can adopt a child from his blood relatives. Adopted children are equivalent to biological children, so offspring is not a problem at all. After thinking it through, he put the matter behind him.
I secretly warned myself to pretend I didn't know about this, so that I wouldn't get drunk or sick and talk nonsense someday.
"No, it's the lord's broad-mindedness that makes Sheng admire him!"
Jiang Sheng was humble and respectful. If this happened to someone else, or himself, he asked himself that he would never be able to be as open-minded and carefree as his lord and not care about the strange looks.
Shen Tang felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
He smiled shyly and waved his hands: "No, no, no."
For a while, the atmosphere was harmonious and the conversation was pleasant between the lord and his subordinates, who had just come into power two days ago.
The relationship was also unintentionally strengthened.
This also made Jiang Sheng secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
It is not easy to find a lord with the national seal.
It was better for the two of them to cooperate well and get along well with each other than to be suspicious of each other and be on guard against each other. He also wanted to see how far this young and immature lord could go.
Although he had been staying in Luxia County for the past few years, and the few times he went out were to visit relatives and friends, he was well aware of the changes in the situation in the northwest of the continent, especially the neighbors around Luxia County. Among them, Heyin County was the focus of discussion among the common people. Jiang Sheng was very clear about the various achievements of this young county magistrate.
Understand, so look forward to it.
Shen Tang did not give him any "new employee internship observation period", and skipped the pre-job training. He was directly thrown out to work, and the difficulty of the content was on par with Chu Yao and Kang Shi. Jiang Sheng was also from Luxia County and knew the most about this place. Chu Yao and the others had to assist him in matters related to Luxia County's internal affairs. Jiang Sheng was a little confused about this lord.
Is it really okay to have such trust
Jiang Sheng was prepared to sit on the bench for a while, but in the end, he was almost overwhelmed by the bamboo slips brought in by officials from the Luxia County government office. Would his former subordinates have any objections to such a high-profile promotion? Jiang Sheng was stunned for a while.
Chu Yao and the others saw his expression.
"Don't think too much. The lord has always been like this."
As long as they can help her work and squeeze out labor, she dares to use the enemy. But this kind of truth, it is better to wait for Jiang Xiandeng to discover it himself, and it will damage the image of the lord if they tell it.
Jiang Sheng frowned: "Yeah."
The three of them started working quietly.
As for the other three families of literati who followed the army
They were sent by Shen Tang to inspect and count other tasks, to find out the specific losses caused to the common people in the county by the bandits' attack. The government office was fine, as the refugees and bandits had not yet had time to plunder, but other counties and towns had already suffered.
Shen Tang needs to know the number of people affected by the disaster before he can arrange disaster relief and reconstruction. The most important thing at the moment is to appease these common people and let them see that besides being forced to become bandits, they still have other ways to survive.
The king of involution will never admit defeat!
The other three families couldn't help but have other ideas when they saw Shen Tang running Luxia County like Heyin.
Could it be that Lord Shen wants to swallow up Luxia County
The idea was suppressed by them as soon as it emerged.
If they really wanted to do this, they would not suggest that the four families take turns to send people to be stationed here, nor would they send them to inspect and count. Wouldn't this give them a chance to fully understand Luxia County? Rather than saying that they want to take it all for themselves, it is better to say that they are serious about rebuilding and let the common people here live a stable and well-fed life.
When the three families held their own small meetings, they were filled with admiration - this Mr. Shen was indeed a rare pure-hearted person in the world!
Wang Tang, the introvert of Shen Chizi, sneezed several times for no apparent reason. Just as she was about to wonder which grandson was talking about her behind her back, a burst of hurried footsteps came closer and closer: "My lord, my lord, look who's here!" Lu Jue's voice was filled with some joy.
He is naturally happy.
The dry food that everyone brought was about to be finished, and they were worrying about whether to eat the food from Luxia County, when the supplies arrived.
Shen Tang was just about to pay her usual greetings to Magistrate Lu and complain that he was not active at work and left her with so much work to do, when she looked up and saw a familiar face outside the door.
She jumped up on the spot, as if she had seen a savior.
Is Yuan Liang just her subordinate? No, no, no, he is also a master of internal affairs who can save her from danger.
"Hahaha, Yuanliang, you're finally here!"
I really want to give Qishan a big bear hug.
"Hurry, hurry, come here, I'll give you half of this!"
Qi Shan was moved by Shen Tang's enthusiasm: ""
After hearing the second half of the sentence, his heart instantly turned cold.
"My Lord!"
Shen Tang said: "I'm here."
Qishan: "Did the trip go smoothly?"
The letter Shen Tang sent back didn't contain much, she just asked him to prepare a batch of food and fodder to be sent over, as she would be staying in Luxia County for half a month, and she also took the opportunity to report her safety to everyone in the government office.
It only talks about the results of this support, but does not write about the process.
Qishan led the food transporters and cooks to hurry over.
Seeing the tragic state of the city, one could tell that the battle was fierce.
Shen Tang sighed and said, "It went smoothly, but we failed to save the governor of Lu. The people of Lu have lost their support, and I'm afraid they will have a hard time in the future. We don't expect Zheng Qiao to send a responsible successor, so we can only hold on for now."
She pointed at the pile of things. The workload was less than that of Heyin County back then, but still considerable. Without overtime for ten days or half a month, she would not be able to finish it. Fortunately, she had rich work experience and could quickly get started with the government affairs of unfamiliar counties and prefectures.
Qishan comforted her: "Everyone has his own destiny."
It was his fate that he could not save the governor of Lu.
As for the common people of Luxia County
He lowered his voice: "My lord does not want to take advantage of the opportunity"
Luxia County is closest to Shen Tang’s Heyin.
The other three are separated by neighbors.
It is very difficult to manage.
It was useless for them to take Luxia County, but it was different for Shen Tang. Although Heyin was not adjacent to Luxia, the neighbors in this direction were not strong. If they found an opportunity to swallow it, they could be connected and it would be beneficial to the lord's foundation.
Gu
Shen Tang: "Alas, I can't have a big appetite right now."
We have to consider Wu Xian and the others.
Otherwise, if they team up to target her family, we'll be in trouble.
"My Lord, you can plan this secretly." Qi Shan was not prepared to let Shen Tang show his edge now. He paused and asked, "Did the former Lu County Governor leave any descendants alive?"
"There is a daughter, Miss Lu, whom I promise to look after, and a grandson who is still an infant."
Qishan said: "Very good!"
Shen Tang guessed what Qi Shan said, but she still had to go through the process to ask, so as not to let outsiders think that she, the master, was full of tricks. Just kidding, she was sincere, kind and frank, her heart was like crystal, clear and flawless, how could she be tricky
"What's good?"
"The former Lu County Magistrate has been managing Luxia County for many years. He has worked diligently over the years, leading troops to suppress bandits and maintain peace, and he is very popular among the people in Luxia. This time, he sacrificed his life for the sake of thousands of common people. His family is a hero, and only his daughter and young grandson are left."
"Be specific."
"I'll borrow Miss Lu's reputation for a while."
Lead a group of common people from Luxia to move to Heyin, and the rest will stay where they are to manage and rebuild. As long as they still remember the kindness of the former county magistrate, and the lord is generous enough to take in his descendants, no one is more qualified than the lord to interfere in Luxia County.
Is there any need to explain who the common people’s hearts are with
Even if the three families have objections, it is not acceptable, as this is the choice of the indigenous people. If nothing unexpected happens, they will not even be able to stand firm when asking Shen Tang for compensation, and it is easy to leave a bad reputation of kicking someone when he is down and being greedy.
Shen Tang: “”
Although she had thought of this idea, Gu Chi was not around and no one could take the blame for her. She could only suggest that the four families take turns guarding this place to avoid the suspicion of taking advantage of the orphan's misfortune and embezzling the orphan's wealth.
Shen Tang said: "We'll do it step by step."
Qi Shan smiled and saluted with his hands crossed: "Yes."
The two smiled at each other.
Coincidentally, Jiang Sheng came.
"Yuanliang, go ahead and let me introduce you to each other." Whenever old people meet new ones, her lord is indispensable.
Qishan is in the Council Hall.
Jiang Sheng is in the corridor of the Council Hall.
The two looked at each other through the open door.
Atmosphere, subtle.
"You—know each other?" Shen Tang swallowed back the words she was about to say, and the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually disappeared.
The atmosphere was as heavy as before a midsummer storm. The two looked into each other's eyes, with thunder and rain brewing deep within.
No need to ask, I definitely know him.
Just look at this situation.
Shen Tang suddenly remembered that Jiang Sheng once said that he had a feud with a scholar named "Yuan Liang" a few years ago.
Maybe, possibly, probably
This "Yuan Liang" is the same as that "Yuan Liang"
The corners of Shen Tang's mouth twitched.
How many enemies did Tucao Qishan make
There was Qin Li before and Jiang Sheng after.
The name really fills in what is missing.
"You, you guys."
Before he could finish his words, the two of them attacked almost at the same time.
Swish, the sword is unsheathed.
The bloodshot eyes of Jiang Sheng were reflected in the snow-white sword shadow.
There was murderous intent in his eyes.
"Qi! Yuan! Liang!"
Shen Tang: “”
Seeing the two men attacking each other's vital points, Shen Tang was not very anxious. He slipped behind the pile of bamboo slips and used it as cover to observe secretly. The two were scholars of literary mind, but they were fighting with swords instead of words.
I think even if there is a grudge, it can't be a deadly one.
Both of them were elegant scholars dressed in elegant clothes. No matter what color they were in, they looked decent. When they fought, it was a pleasure to watch. They fought from inside the door to outside, from outside the door to inside, and from the ground to the beams.
Shen Tang watched the show and ate melons and cakes.
Occasionally, wood chips and tiles would fall from above her head, but she dodged them one by one until the noise of the fight alerted Chu Yaokang, who was working in the next office. Chu Yao turned his head to avoid the "hidden weapon" that was shot at him.
He said angrily, "What's the matter with you guys?"
You don't have to guess to know that it is Qi Yuanliang's enemy.
Before this, Qin Li saw Qi Shan and wanted to draw his sword to hit him.
He and Kang Shi each stopped one person at a time and barely managed to suppress the chaotic situation. It would be very embarrassing if this matter got out.
Jiang Sheng said angrily: "Chu Wuhui, let me go!"
Qi Shan pulled up his drooping hair, panting slightly, and said angrily: "Let him go, am I still afraid of you?"
As soon as Dayou and Kangshi let go, they continued to fight for three hundred rounds, and they were very angry.
Kang Shi had no choice but to look to Shen Tang for help.
Now only Shen Tang can stop it.
Shen Tang received the hint and stood up.
She coughed lightly to attract everyone's attention: "Ahem, ahem - Yuanliang, Xiandeng, is there any misunderstanding between you? If there is any conflict, let's sit down and talk it out. We are all colleagues, so don't hurt the harmony."
Qi Shan almost vomited blood.
Colleagues
Is his lord really his lord
Qi Shan was a little uncertain. He even suspected that the seven lords had deep resentment, so Shen Tang came to rule him. She lived up to expectations and collected his enemies scattered all over the place? When she thought about working with Jiang Sheng in the future
Qishan only feels that the future is dark.
“No misunderstanding”
Jiang Sheng took a breath, gritted his teeth and sheathed his sword to show his attitude, and Qi Shan had no choice but to follow suit. Chu Yao and Kang Shi stood beside the two of them, keeping their distance, so that if they were not careful, the two would fight again.
Shen Tang occupies the main seat.
She was brewing something in her stomach.
"When did you first meet?"
The two waited for each other, neither of them spoke.
Shen Tang asked again: "Why did you become enemies?"
"It depends on how much harm this 'evil plotter' did to cause Sheng to be trapped in Lu for so many years."
Jiang Sheng smiled with his lips but not his eyes.
Shen Tang then looked at Qi Shan.
I'm curious why this guy wants to make Jiang Sheng a otaku.
Qi Shan sneered and said calmly: "This is clearly your scholarly ways at work, what does it have to do with me!"
Shen Tang: “”
She heard her heart skip a beat.
As expected—
Qi Shan was in a lot of trouble: "My Lord, do you think your life is tougher than the star of doom? Why can't you let it go!"
There are so many scholars in the world who have the normal way of scholars, but does my master have some special ability to always pick out the abnormal ones among them
Shen Tang: “”
