The Second World [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

Chapter 12

It's been a few days since we left the capital, and it's already night in this frontier town. It's very different from the night in the capital, and the night here seems a bit hazy.

A huge bright moon came into view, and No.2 drank the tea made from the high-quality tea Li Xiuyan prepared for him, feeling a touch of nostalgia in his heart.

It was agreed before that we would work hard in the Imperial Academy together, and drink tea and have fun together when we have free time, but now he is staying alone in this border town.

Li Xiuyan...

He said the name lightly and covered his forehead: "How can there be a feast that lasts forever, I knew it a long time ago?"

A heavy sigh filled the room, and the bright moon that night became extremely desolate.Hadn't he been walking all over the place before he met Li Xiuyan?At that time, there was obviously no such emotion.

Now... why is that so.

Maybe Li Xiuyan is too important a friend to him, and Xiuyan is indeed the most sincere friend he has ever made.With Li Xiuyan, he can talk about everything and feel very comfortable.

"Xiuyan, I'll go back when I'm done with Shi Guanyin, and I must remember to bring you special products." He raised his glass to Yue, showing a faint smile.

After soothing the feelings in his heart, he lay down to rest peacefully, and the night passed very peacefully.

In the early morning of the next day, no one got up in the yamen, he had already put on his clothes and went to deal with the backlog of official documents alone.

In a small town like this, something happens every day, although they may not necessarily report it to the authorities.In the past, the government here could really be regarded as a display. They couldn't share the worries of the people, but instead worked hand in hand with those people.

However, thinking of the rapid replacement of the county magistrates here, I am afraid that some of them will end up with a lot of loess due to their lack of power.

Changing a county magistrate seems to make no difference to the people here, except for the yamen servants.

As soon as No.2 came, he gave them a bad start, and they didn't dare to make any mistakes for a while. When they got up and saw No.2 who was processing official documents, their hearts kept beating.

Although they were very worried about whether No.2 was going to deal with them, they chose to stand still before No.2 made a move, or to be soft first.

On the first day he took office, some people kept testing him, and some yamen servants gave him something with apologetic smiles on their faces.

Looking at the gold, silver and jewels, No.2 smiled lightly and said nothing, they thought it was done when they saw No.2 smiled, and immediately felt relieved.

Sure enough, this person can do anything as long as he has money.

After they left, No.2 raised his head slightly to stare at the departing figure, stretched out his hands to caress the gold, silver and jewels, and withdrew his smile: "Oh, it's a pity, these things don't belong to me."

A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way, not to mention that he is not poor at all, and the more money the better.

Withdrawing his hands, he picked up a pen and directly took the paper to write the time, place, and name, and matched the gold, silver and jewelry that was sent one by one, and then put them all away. These are all evidences.

Li Xiuyan, who was far away in the capital, was writing in the Hanlin Academy, when he suddenly saw the word Lanzhou in the book, he thought of No.2.

I don't know how his friends are doing now?After saying goodbye to his friends, he heard other people chatting about the really dangerous border of Lanzhou, especially the border town where No.2 went.

Even though he really believed in No.2's martial arts, he still inevitably felt worried.

With this thought in mind, how many hours have passed, and it was time to go back to rest, he walked slowly back to the gate of his mansion.

A strange voice came from behind: "Excuse me, sir, does No.2 live here?"

"Are you his friend?" He turned to look at the man whose voice belonged to and asked.

The man stroked the tip of his nose and nodded: "Yes."

Immediately, Li Xiuyan invited the man in and chatted with each other for a while, Li Xiuyan knew that the man in front of him was Chu Liuxiang, a friend of No.2.

They met and became friends during a competition of qinggong. Li Xiuyan is not clear about the affairs in the world, but it is not strange to make friends like this with No.2's temperament.

Originally, Chu Liuxiang was traveling casually, and happened to meet Lu Xiaofeng who had left the capital. After talking with Lu Xiaofeng, he got up in the capital and wanted to congratulate No.2.

He also learned from Lu Xiaofeng that No.2 lived in Li's Mansion, so he came to Li's Mansion to look for No.2 after he came to the capital.

Li Xiuyan sighed: "Secondly, he was transferred to Lanzhou to be the county magistrate, so he should have arrived by now."

"Lanzhou?" Chu Liuxiang immediately thought of his friend in Lanzhou.

"I heard that the second town is full of fish and dragons. Unfortunately, I can't do anything to help him."

Chu Liuxiang thought about it inadvertently, he chuckled lightly and said, "It just so happens that I have a good friend in Lanzhou, and I'm planning to visit him."

As soon as these words came out, Li Xiuyan, who is as smart as he is, naturally knew what it meant. He cupped his hands and said politely: "Then I will trouble you to find out the second situation for me, thank you."

Chu Liuxiang directly agreed: "It's just a little effort, you don't have to be polite, the second is also my friend."

Speaking of it, Chu Liuxiang also felt a little strange, how could a good editor of the Imperial Academy be transferred to such a remote border town as a county magistrate?

The fact that the emperor was able to hand-pick No. [-] as Tanhua proved that he had his eyes on No. [-], so it was unlikely that he would be exiled.

Without thinking too much, Chu Liuxiang said goodbye to Li Xiuyan, and his next goal was Lanzhou.

During the time they were talking, No. 2 finished sorting out the official documents on the table, and he felt that he was really working hard.

But he didn't do anything about the most important thing, Shi Guanyin, Shi Guanyin, this matter is still very difficult.

Things can't be rushed, it is reasonable for him to solve the current matters one by one first, maybe Shi Guanyin will come to him by then.

Because when he handles things, it is very likely to harm her interests. This place is not far from the Great Desert, and the forces are intricate. Who can guarantee that there is no force of Shi Guanyin among them.

Thinking about it, he got up and stretched his muscles and bones, what could he do with no one under his command, and soon a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he walked out of the county office with a smile and took a walk in the town.

There were a lot of vehicles passing by on the streets in the town, and he saw that their footsteps were steady, and they were all people with martial arts skills.

It was close to the desert and the weather was dry. After walking for a while, he felt like stopping and drinking a pot of tea.In fact, many battles in history are not lost to strength. The right time, place and people are harmonious, and the right time and place are also very important.

It seems that he has to adapt to the environment here these days, and he will definitely achieve what he wants to achieve.

After a few days, the yamen servants have completely calmed down, and this county magistrate is no different from the previous ones.

Without restraint, they acted recklessly, but they didn't expect that No.2 was watching them secretly.

At the same time, No.2 secretly led the boss who robbed him out to a no-man's land, and said in a seductive tone, "How about I give you a chance to make up for your mistakes?"

"What?!" The leader was very surprised, his expression darkened suddenly and he said, "What do you want us to do?"

He had investigated before, and the strength of this group of bandits was not very good, but they had good contacts.However, if he was really a vicious person, he would not do this. These bandits still have a bit of conscience. Although they robbed, they haven't hurt anyone's life yet.

Thinking of robbing him that day, a group of people were so fierce that they swung their knives and said they wanted to kill him, but after he investigated, he found that these bandits really only talk.

"For my errand."

"Boss!" The man bowed his head and called No.2 the boss.

The corner of No.2's mouth twitched. He was a serious and serious Tanhualang who passed the imperial examination. Why was he called like this? He thought he was a bandit leader.Forget it, the bandit leader is the bandit leader, as long as he can finish the job.

No.2 suddenly asked: "What's your name?"

"Boss, my name is Tieniu."

"..." Even though I checked the other person's name and surname before, seeing and hearing it felt completely different.

He coughed lightly and began to order Tieniu some things. First of all, he wanted to make all the power in this yamen his.

Those yamen servants are quite related to the forces in the town here, so he needs the contacts of this iron cow to help contact those forces, so that those forces can make friends with him, not with these yamen servants.

Without the support of the forces behind them, punishing them would be extremely simple and easy.

So much evidence is more than enough for him to select, he will rectify this place step by step, who will let these government servants bear the brunt of it.

He patted Tieniu's shoulder with a smile: "I value you very much, don't let me down."

"Yes, boss!" They didn't suffer too much in prison these days, and he was overwhelmed by the strength of No.2.

Only someone as powerful as No.2 can be their boss, right?

There is a certain reason in this arena that the strong are respected, but of course it is not entirely true.

Two days later, No.2 found a reason to send them to work, saying that it was not certain whether the work was really work.

Anyway, no one will take care of this matter. According to the previous thinking, they all think that these are just excuses, but they just use money to get No. 2 to release them.

However, this time they guessed wrong...the consequences of guessing wrong are something they regret very much and cannot imagine.
