Chapter 20 The first visit to the county governor

Seeing these two pairs of books hanging on the wall and recalling the gold and silver utensils placed in large shapes at home, Zhao Xu couldn't help but intuitively understand the meaning of the three words "nova".

"This is the real show of wealth!"

He muttered with emotion, and just as he was about to return to the seat and wait, a shout came from outside the door before the sound of people arrived.

"I, the Zhao family husband who shot tigers and killed thieves in Longxi?"

As he said that, he walked into a man wearing a long crown on his head, a copper seal and a yellow ribbon on his waist, and three long beards left.

According to the Han law, four hundred stones and four hundred stones are given as officials, and they are equipped with copper seals and yellow ribbons. Since this person is given this, he will definitely not be the prefect Li Shen.

But even so, when the person comes in, Zhao Xu still bows to the person very politely.

"I'm Zhao Xu, how dare you ask Jun Changgao's name?"

"Haha, Li Ke and Li Boshen have also met Mr. Lang."

Li Ke smiled, but immediately returned Zhao Xu with a gift.

However, after hearing the person's name, Zhao Xu hurriedly turned sideways and dodged.

Just kidding, this is the performance review of the county gongcao, who is in charge of the county officials, and is the right hand of the county magistrate. Although he is only a small official who has three hundred stones, he is an existence that can scold the local county magistrate as his subordinates.

Therefore, after knowing his identity, Zhao Xu couldn't help but give him a gift again.

"Haha, my husband doesn't need to be polite. In the future, you and I will become officials in the same family. Besides, we are still fellow villagers in the same county. I and your father and your father are considered old acquaintances. Why do you and me have to be so polite?"

"I can't do it, I can't do it. My father has mentioned Mr. Li several times in front of the boy. Before he left, my father even asked him to hold the etiquette of his disciples in front of Mr. Li and treat Mr. Li like an adult in his family."

"Oh, hahahaha. OK, okay, sit down, let's sit down and chat."

Li Ke was also from a local tyrant. If it weren't for the Dong family in Lintao, the Li family of Didao would definitely be the most prominent family in the eleven counties in Longxi.

Because compared to the nouveau riche like the Zhao family in Zheng County, the family of the Li family of the Didao Li family had rooted here as early as the pre-Qin period. Its ancestor Li Chong was the prefect of Longxi in the pre-Qin period. Even the famous flying general Li Guang of the previous dynasty, if we discuss it in detail, he was born in the Li family of the Didao Li family.

As the stars change, although the Li family gradually becomes a little declining, its family background is by no means comparable to that of the Zhao family in Zheng County.

This is why Zhao Xu was so respectful when he saw Li Ke.

However, Zhao Xu did not know that the famous Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, who was later famous in the later generations, actually came from the Didao Li family.

If Zhao Xu knew about this, then he would be even more respectful to Li Ke.

...

"Nephew, the reason why the Lord of the Mansion has appointed you as the thief Cao in the county this time is also related to the fact that I mentioned the name of the Lord of the Mansion. So, wait, you must not blame me for this."

After a short time of conversation, I saw that Zhao Xu was very handsome and had a polite conversation, not as arrogant and reckless as young people of his generation, so I couldn't help but feel a little about winning over. The title changed immediately.

"If this is true, my nephew wouldn't have time to thank Uncle Shi, so how dare I blame him?"

Li Ke took the initiative to change his name, and Zhao Xu naturally climbed along the way.

After all, after hearing this, the reason why I was conscripted as a thief by the county magistrate this time was due to Li Ke's recommendation. Besides, Li Ke is nearly 40 years old, so Zhao Xu should call him "Shi Shu", but it is also true.

"Haha, my dear nephew, you said this too early. I just hope that later, the Lord of the Mansion will tell you why you should be appointed as the Gongcao of the County, so that you can still be as good as you are now."

As long as the case of Kuohan continues to be investigated, it will inevitably lead to conflict with Kuohan's powerful Kuohan.

In order to make a position of Gongcao of 200 stones, it is hard to say whether it is profitable or loss.

But compared to Li Ke, an insider who knows everything, Zhao Xu, an outsider who has just been recruited and came to the army, really knows nothing about this.

Therefore, seeing Li Ke’s appearance clearly being insincere with you, Zhao Xu could really force himself to curiosity and wait for the county magistrate Li Shen in the house.

"The Lord of the House is here!"

When the two were silent for a long time, the servant outside the door shouted, a county magistrate Li Shen, who was wearing a long crown of Han official style, wearing a straight-hem robe with big sleeves, a silver seal and a blue ribbon on his waist, and a thick beard on his face. He couldn't help but look extremely majestic. He couldn't help but strode into the house surrounded by officials and several armored soldiers.

Seeing this, Zhao Xu and Li Ke were originally kneeling on the mat and stood up from their seats. Then, they solemnly prepared to bow and bow to Li Shen, the county magistrate who was strode into the house.

But what Zhao Xu unexpectedly expected was that before he could touch the ground with his head and perform the ritual of silence, the county magistrate Li Shen's big hands supported him.

"Zhao Lang doesn't need to be polite. I have heard of you as a prefect who shoots tigers and kills thieves. You are willing to come here this time. To be honest, I am very happy in my prefect.

Come, let me take a look at the prefect, how handsome the young talent in Longxi is.”

As he said this, as he exerted his hands, Zhao Xu had to stand up from the ground.

"Tsk tsk, okay, okay. He is worthy of being a talented man in the county. Look at his appearance, he is indeed very heroic!"

Zhao Xu was eight feet tall, and his appearance showed the beauty of a man's firmness and heroism. If this appearance was placed in the Wei and Jin dynasties, when men were white and feminine and beautiful, it might not be able to eat it, but if it was placed in the man who was very martial, this appearance was a standard handsome man.

So when he saw Zhao Xu's appearance, even before he could talk to Zhao Xu, Li Shen secretly added a lot of points to Zhao Xu in his heart.

It is inevitable to judge people by their appearance.

Although the style of judging people by appearance at the end of the Han Dynasty could not compare to the Wei and Jin dynasties, which was ugly and would be beaten to death with one blow, this trend was still very common.

Take Cao Cao as an example. This is because he is not good-looking, when the Huns come to envoy him, he even asked Cui Yan to replace him and stand behind him to catch the knife.

"Come to Zhao Lang, I will also recommend you the right-hand man who will help me manage the county in this county."

As he said that, he couldn't help but introduce Zhao Xu's arms one by one.

In response to this, Zhao Xu naturally hurriedly bowed and did not dare to be negligent. However, in the end, Zhao Xu could not help but discover that all the officials present, except for Gong Cao Li Ke and the two officials with five senses, Chu Han, were the officials of the court, but the remaining officials were the heads of each Cao and the county government.

According to the Han law, the second in command of the county was not present in the area of ​​the border county, but the county magistrate who was the chief and chief minister was not present.

'Is this county magistrate who also serves as the chief of the county magistrate, who is also isolated? If so, this county magistrate will be a tough person.'

This kind of thought subconsciously emerged in his mind, but Zhao Xu did not show it at all.
