Chapter 46 Uncle?

Author: Use your soul to aim

Eunuch Li was also very unhappy here. In his eyes, when had the people in the palace been threatened with firecrackers?

He didn't go out, so he stayed in Zhichun Courtyard, waiting for the magistrates to kneel and kowtow to him.

Seeing Eunuch Li's livid face, the Jin Yiwei said even more jealously:

"The county magistrate is not afraid of Beizhen Fusi at all. You can tell by the polite look in his eyes that he has no awe at all."

What Jin Yiwei said made Eunuch Li think deeply. Does this boy have anything to rely on?

Did Wei Chao say something to him?

Zhang Zongxian returned to the study room in the backyard of the county government office angrily. He was sitting there with an unhappy look on his face, and Yu Nong didn't dare to express his anger next to him.

I still think in my heart that Master is so awesome! Even the Jinyiwei are not afraid!

It wasn't until Su'e came to the study to say some words of relief that Zhang Zongxian felt relieved.

It's also that Zhang Zongxian has been too smooth lately, forgetting that he is just a county magistrate now. After his anger subsided, he became afraid again, fearing that Eunuch Li would turn against him and take him to the capital.

He was also afraid that Eunuch Li would hate him and would sue him and dismiss him from office when he returned to the capital.

If you worry about gains and losses for a while and then throw away your sleeves and ignore them, you will end up rebelling.

Then he ordered Su'e to quickly go to the bank, count 10,000 taels of silver, and bring it to the county government. She gave Eunuch Li some invitations to greet Eunuch Li at Zhichun Tower at noon tomorrow.

Su'e quickly arranged for fifty thousand taels of silver to be delivered to the backyard of the county government office. They were all newly minted official silver.

After explaining how Yu Nong should speak, Zhang Zongxian asked Yu Nong to lead someone to carry the silver to Zhichun Tower.

Along the way, Yu Nong looked at the ten big boxes filled with silver and wondered when he would earn so much money! Being a eunuch was different. Those who were rich and powerful had to purify themselves.

I gave up the idea of ​​becoming a eunuch when I thought that I was not married yet and had not left a home for the Qi family.

After arriving at the backyard of Zhichun Yuan and putting down the box, he carefully walked to Eunuch Li's house and said

"My county magistrate said that it is not as cold as the capital city here. I was afraid that my father-in-law would freeze, so he specially asked me to send ten quilts to Eunuch Li."

The Jin Yiwei inside had been so frightened that he didn't sleep. Hearing the news that someone else was coming, he thought that the magistrate had become angry and wanted to kill someone.

He quickly picked up his sword and went out to fight. Before he left the room, he heard Yu Nong's words.

The anger I just mentioned was immediately released. I almost cursed my mother out. You came here to deliver quilts in the middle of the night and returned ten fucking quilts. Your county magistrate must be seriously ill!

The big man who was kicking people during the day was thinking about going out and beating people, but Eunuch Li stopped him and asked him to go out and see what was going on.

When Jin Yiwei went out and saw the box containing silver, he understood what was going on.

He immediately had a smile on his face and said to Yunong

"The county magistrate is too polite to send you a quilt at such a late hour."

"When my county magistrate returned to the county office, he thought that it was too cold today and he was afraid of freezing all the officials. He immediately went to collect ten quilts and sent them over, for fear of freezing Eunuch Li.

My county magistrate is still thinking of greeting Eunuch Li at Zhichun Tower tomorrow, so I would like to inform Eunuch Li that this is a greeting card."

"Just wait." After saying that, he took the greeting card and went back into the room. He came out after a while.

"Just put the quilt there and tell your family that Eunuch Li will go to the banquet tomorrow."

After Yunong got the letter, he led the people out of the backyard.

After Yunong left, Eunuch Li also walked out of the room and looked at a big box in the yard. When he opened any box, a silver light shone on his face.

Looking at the neatly arranged official silver, a rough calculation revealed that there were ten thousand taels of silver. What a big gesture!

Eunuch Li is very satisfied. It seems that the magistrate is still sensible. He will have a good meeting with the magistrate tomorrow, and he will definitely be a big help to him in the future.

Yu Nong went back and reported that Eunuch Li had accepted the money, and Zhang Zongxian fell asleep peacefully.

The next morning, Zhang Zongxian asked Su'e to prepare 45,000 taels of silver Taiping banknotes. He arrived at Zhichun Tower in advance with the banknotes, and instead of risking his own life, he started to arrange a banquet with the attitude of entertaining big leaders in his previous life.

The copper hot pot is ready and the chef with the best knife skills is arranged to cut the mutton on the spot.

Warm the Tianru wine in advance to allow the wine to naturally release its aroma.

After preparing everything, Zhang Zongxian went to the backyard to greet Eunuch Li.

Eunuch Li saw everything and felt that Zhang Zongxian was a talent that could be developed, so he walked out of the room immediately.

Zhang Zongxian did not wear official uniform but only wore a Taoist robe. Eunuch Li also wore a Taoist robe.

When Zhang Zongxian saw Eunuch Li coming out, despite his reluctance, he quickly stepped forward and saluted:

"The official paid homage to Eunuch Li, and he was shocked." This was the first time he had saluted someone after time travel. Zhang Zongxian felt very awkward.

Eunuch Li first looked at Zhang Zongxian extensively. It seemed that Zhang Zongxian was just a weak scholar with an ordinary appearance.

"My dear nephew, I worry too much. It's all a misunderstanding."

What does "nephew" mean? Does he know that cheap dad?

Since we knew each other, why didn't we come to him earlier? It made him nervous. He thought he was trying to steal his property.

This made Zhang Zongxian confused. He didn’t know what to call him. He tentatively called him a name.

"Uncle Li."

"How come your good nephew calls you uncle when you are outside?"

Uncle? You want to be my father! You eunuch, you are looking for death!

"uncle!"

Eunuch Li looked like he had succeeded in his treacherous plan, and immediately took Zhang Zongxian's hand and walked to the second floor of the front hall.

Zhang Zongxian is still in a state of confusion. This ancient uncle should be a title, it should not mean it literally!

This is the same as the name Northern Shaanxi was called Dada in the previous life, right?

When they reached the second floor, Eunuch Li motioned to the four Jinyi guards to sit down separately, and he pulled Zhang Zongxian into the private seats.

After entering the private seat, Zhang Zongxian reacted a little. He first called Ding Bo and Yu Nong to entertain the four handsome men, while he helped Eunuch Li sit on the upper seat.

After Eunuch Li sat down, he spoke:

"My dear nephew, please take your seat too."

After Zhang Zongxian sat down, he didn't know what to say anymore. The draft he had prepared was all wiped out by the sentence "nephew". He held it back for a long time before he came up with this sentence.

"My uncle arrived in Qingjian County yesterday. Why didn't he come to see my nephew? So that my nephew could entertain my uncle well."

Eunuch Li said casually:

“I haven’t been out much since I entered the palace, and I wanted to go out and see more this time. I heard from the neighboring county that the horse market in Qingjian County is extremely prosperous.

Speaking of it, it is said that this horse market was built after you took office. It is true that you are a talented person who has a good way of making money!"

Finally opened a topic.

"It's all for the sake of the people to make my uncle laugh. As an official, you have to think more about the people."

"Eunuch Wei really did not misjudge the person. For you to be the county magistrate will offend those Jinshi in the court who are waiting to take office. Some of them are going to die for remonstrance."

Isn't he just a county magistrate? Why do you have to admonish these young people who have nothing to do? Zhang Zongxian is the first county magistrate who knows that there are supervisors who pay donations.

His father's death actually had a lot to do with those people. He could have survived for a few more years. He was ostracized and reviled by his colleagues in the civil service department. He died before his son took office.
