Chapter 258 Return to the capital

He sighed softly, sat up slowly, walked slowly outside the house, looked up at the sun in the sky, and for the first time, Xu Xianchun felt that life was so beautiful.

"Master, you're up!" Li Tiantian walked over quickly and saluted Xu Xianchun. At this time, Li Tiantian was no longer dressed as before, but had her hair tied up in a bun, looking like a young woman.

, now everyone respectfully calls him Aunt Li when they meet him.

Smiling at Aunt Li, Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "When you return to the capital, I will give you a status!"

"It's my blessing to be able to serve you by my side. I naturally believe what you say." Coming to Xu Xianchun, Aunt Li supported Xu Xianchun and said with a smile: "Sir, yesterday the magistrate and Liu Xun

When the inspector came, I had already gone to bed. They didn't dare to disturb me, they just said hello and left, saying they would come back today."

Nodding slowly, Xu Xianchun knew that he had gone to bed early yesterday, so it was hard to say anything. He gently took Aunt Li's hand, and Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "The master is injured, and he probably won't be able to stay in Shandong for long. In

Wait a few days, and I will take you back to the capital."

"Wherever the master goes, I will go. From now on, I will be the master's!" Aunt Li grew up in a brothel. After the old madam's careful training, she naturally had endless tricks to coax men.

"Your Excellency, the Magistrate of Changlin County is outside asking for an audience!" Just as the two of them were chatting with each other, a captain of the Imperial Guard walked in quickly and came to Xu Xianchun's side and said respectfully.

After being slightly startled, Xu Xianchun nodded slowly. The county magistrate was such a good person, so naturally he wanted to meet him. He glanced at Aunt Li next to him and saw that her expression did not change at all. Xu Xianchun became serious.

The voice said: "Let him come in!"

Not long after, a middle-aged man walked in outside, wearing the official uniform of the county magistrate. Behind him was Inspector Liu, who walked in one after the other.

Xu Xianchun is still very curious about the intentions of this magistrate. Logically speaking, magistrates are in the civil service system. Although a seventh-grade magistrate is not a high-ranking official, he should still be a high-ranking official. Scholars with a good reputation are full of bad habits, even Xu Xianchun is like this

The high-ranking Jin Yiwei officials, these people also disdain to curry favor.

The magistrate of Changlin County actually sent him a beauty and came to visit him in person. Obviously there was something going on! But Xu Xianchun could probably guess that he had never seen the magistrate of Changlin since he came to Changlin County. Although

Changlin is very small, that is, a lower-class county, and the county seat is not very tall, but it is strange that there is no county magistrate here!

Ever since Xu Xianchun came to Changlin, he has always been greeted by Inspector Liu, and the one who guards him to the death is also Inspector Liu. On the contrary, the main hall of a county has disappeared. Although Inspector Liu tried his best to cover it up, Xu Xianchun is not stupid either.

He knew that the county magistrate might have run away. He got the news early and ran away. This was a runaway. If he was really convicted, it would definitely not be as simple as dismissal from office. The death penalty would be certain. If he offended someone, he would be punished.

I'm afraid people can confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans by using any means.

However, Xu Xianchun had no idea about this magistrate. There were too many such people, and there was no need for him to be acquainted with him. If he were caught, even if he was killed, there would be no benefit to him, but he couldn't let him

Implicated. If something happens in the future, it will probably become his leverage. Glancing at Aunt Li next to him, Xu Xianchun asked in a deep voice: "Where is your deed of sale? How much money did Magistrate Changlin spend to buy you?"

After hearing Xu Xianchun's words, Aunt Li was slightly startled, and then said with aggrieved face: "I don't know how much it cost me, but the deed of sale should be in the hands of the county magistrate."

Xu Xianchun nodded slowly and breathed a sigh of relief. This is good, things are much easier to handle.

"Li Changmao of Linzhi County, Xiagoanchang has met your Excellency!" Li Changmao said respectfully after giving Xu Xianchun a salute.

"Master Li, without courtesy, I have been here begging for mercy from Guixian County for many days. I feel quite sorry that Master Li has troubled me!" Xu Xianchun smiled indifferently and said softly.

Seeing that Xu Xianchun didn't seem to be prepared to embarrass him, and seeing Aunt Li on the side dressed like a woman, Li Changmao breathed a sigh of relief. As long as this adult didn't pursue the issue, there would naturally be no big problem. Li Changmao was answering

When there was news about the rebels, he knew that Changlin County could not be defended, so he found a reason to run away. When he came back after the rebellion was put down, he thought there would be no problem. At that time, the official would be reinstated and everything would be as usual.

.

But this Li Changmao and Li Zhixian never expected that as soon as he left, Xu Xianchun came with his back. What surprised Li Zhixian even more was that Changlin County actually held on. This was a great achievement. He went back to write a note and said

When it comes to his own merit, this promotion is a proper one.

Li Changmao also knew in his heart that these people below were nothing, and the imperial envoy leading the army did not know about this matter. The only one who needed to keep his mouth shut was Xu Xianchun. Why did Li Changmao give these things away and fawn over them? He still thought

Xu Xianchun has prepared a big gift, and he is here to give it today.

After giving a salute to Xu Xianchun, Li Changmao said respectfully: "Your Excellency, your hard work has made great achievements. It is an honor for us to be able to come to Linchang."

Xu Xianchun knew in his heart that Li Changmao definitely didn't want him to come here. He coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Master Li, if you don't tell secret words, I am very satisfied with Miss Tiantian and am ready to send you to her."

She has taken her as a concubine. I heard that the deed of sale is still with Mr. Li? I wonder if it can be sold to me, Mr. Li can give me a price!"

After hearing Xu Xianchun's words, Li Changmao was stunned. This obviously did not mean cooperation! However, he did not dare to delay and said in a deep voice, "Sir, yes!" He took out the bond of betrayal in his arms and said,

It was handed over to Xu Xianchun.

Taking the deed of betrayal, Xu Xianchun slowly opened it. After the missing person was correct, Xu Xianchun handed the deed of betrayal to Aunt Li behind him, and said with a smile: "This is yours, take it yourself!" For such a woman, Xu Xianchun

I believe that even without the contract of sale, she would not be able to find out what is in her own hands.

Aunt Li happily accepted the contract of sale, and her smile towards Xu Xianchun became even sweeter.

Smiling at Aunt Li, Xu Xianchun said to the Jin Yiwei standing not far away: "Go and bring me five hundred taels of silver!" These Jin Yiwei were not from Xu Xianchun's side but from Shandong. This morning,

Just arrived.

"Yes, sir!" He bowed to Xu Xianchun, and the man left quickly. He had scruples about the civil servant Xu Xianchun, but he had no scruples about the imperial guard Xu Xianchun, and he was confident enough to ask for five hundred taels of silver.

Hearing Xu Xianchun's words, Li Changmao's heart sank. His deed of sale was for five hundred taels. It seemed that he wanted to give himself money! At this time, he was really confused. If he didn't accept his gift, now he should

He was arrested, but Xu Xianchun did not do this. But if he was on his side, why would he give himself money?

Xu Xianchun's idea is very simple. He doesn't want to care about Li Changmao's troubles. Whether he hides it or gets arrested has nothing to do with him.

It didn't take long before the Jin Yiwei brought the silver and signaled the Jin Yiwei to hand it over to Li Changmao. Xu Xianchun said in a deep voice, "This is Aunt Li's money from selling herself, Mr. Li, keep it!"

"Sir!" Li Changmao took the money and seemed to want to say something else, but was interrupted by a voice outside.

"The imperial edict has arrived!" With just three words, everyone in the courtyard was shocked, including Xu Xianchun himself. How could there be an imperial edict here?

As soon as the shouts ended, two teams of people walked in from outside and stood along the left and right sides of the yard. Everyone was wearing armor and had knives on their waists. Everyone's eyes were very sharp, and they could see their combat effectiveness.

Not vulgar.

After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man slowly walked in holding a yellow scroll in both hands, with a solemn expression on his face.

When he saw the person walking in, Xu Xianchun was stunned! Xiong Wencan, Minister of the Ministry of War, how could it be him? Xu Xianchun always thought that the imperial envoy to suppress bandits this time was Sun Chuanting, but he did not expect that it was Xiong Wencan.

"Comrade Xu Xianchun of Jin Yiwei, accept the order!" Xiong Wencan didn't seem to see anyone. He walked straight to the steps and stood there, and then said expressionlessly.

"My lord, Xu Xianchun, the Imperial Guardsman, accepted the order. Long live our emperor!" Xu Xianchun quickly lifted up his clothes and knelt on the ground. How could this happen? Even if the emperor had an imperial edict to pass to him, he should have sent a eunuch.

Why do you still let Xiong Wencan announce the decree? This is a typical case of great talent but little use!

Gently unfolding the imperial edict, Xiong Wencan read loudly: "The emperor is entrusted by heaven, and the edict says: Xu Xianchun, a fellow acquaintance of Jinyiwei, was appointed by the emperor to go to Shandong to investigate the Wenxiangmen case in person, and there was considerable progress. Regarding the Wenxiangmen case,

I already know the matter in detail and have sent a large army to destroy it. I have promoted Xiong Wencan, Secretary of the Ministry of War, to personally go to Shandong to destroy Wenxiangmen. From now on, Xu Xianchun will hand over the errand to Xiong Wencan and return to Beijing immediately without any mistake. I appreciate this."

"Your Majesty, Xu Xianchun, a member of the Imperial Guard, has received the edict. Long live our emperor!" After bowing to the imperial edict, Xu Xianchun took it over. In fact, Xu Xianchun didn't know that Emperor Tianqi didn't know where Xu Xianchun was at the beginning, so he

The imperial edict was handed over to Xiong Wencan, and Xiong Wencan read it out according to the content of the imperial edict.

Ignoring Xu Xianchun, Xiong Wencan turned around and left after reading the imperial edict, without saying anything to Xu Xianchun.

However, Xu Xianchun didn't care. This had been expected for a long time. As for the delivery mission mentioned in Emperor Tianqi's imperial edict, it was just to save some face for himself. Xu Xianchun still understood this.

Glancing at Li Changmao on the side, Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "Master Li, I am about to return to Beijing, so I won't see you off." After saying that, he raised his legs and walked into the room. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature,
