The county magistrate of Jingning County was implicated in the Su Yingcheng case and had already been sentenced to death. The new magistrate was soon in place. The new magistrate was none other than Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen. Both Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen were familiar with this.
Shocked acquaintance.
"Why are you?"
Hearing that the newly appointed county magistrate was going to visit with his wife, Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen held a banquet in the flower hall of the uncle's residence and waited. However, when they saw the two people invited in by the servants, they were shocked -
Even Cui Weizhen's normally calm face showed a look of astonishment, let alone Ye Zhenzhen!
Their surprise succeeded in amusing the visitors. The couple was so proud that they looked at them like children who had succeeded in playing a prank. "Why, you didn't expect it to be us? Who taught you that adults are so busy these days?"
, they all forgot about us!”
At the end of the sentence, I complained a little, looking very sad.
Yes, there is no doubt that the person speaking was Chu Ningyan, and the newly appointed county magistrate was naturally Zhou Xunting, who was supposed to be serving in the Hanlin Academy.
Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen have been too busy recently, and they have no time to take care of themselves, let alone the energy to pay attention to the situation of their friends.
The Jingning County magistrate is vacant, and there will inevitably be competition. There are many people vying for this position. Cui Weizhen's status is here. No matter who the new magistrate is, he will not think of going against the Cui family of Jingning. He will
I didn't pay attention to it, but I didn't expect that this position would eventually fall into the hands of a good friend.
He understood it after just a moment's thought, and nodded affirmatively: "Jingning County Magistrate is indeed a good place, uncle took the trouble."
"Sure enough, you guessed it again."
Zhou Xunting, who didn't wait to ask and thought he could show off in front of Cui Weizhen, was extremely disappointed, but he quickly cheered up and said proudly: "Jing Ning is indeed good. My father was not worried about me going outside."
When I became a parent official, I was afraid that I would harm the local people. Now it's good. There is a vacancy in Jingning County. In the future, this will be your territory, Wei Zhen. It will be very convenient for you. If you don't understand something in the future, your father can still be nearby to give you some guidance.
It couldn't be better."
Zhou Xunting has a straightforward temper and knows nothing about the twists and turns of officialdom. Zhou Shaoqing is worried that he will be bullied by powerful landlords when he goes to the local area. The government orders will not be followed and he will not be able to achieve results in the end. It is better to stay in the capital than to be released, so he has been detained in the Hanlin Academy.
There was even the idea of letting him stay in Hanlin for the rest of his life.
But parents love their sons and have far-reaching plans. Officials who have not served as local officials cannot be promoted to high places. Although Zhou Shaoqing hopes that his son will stay in the Hanlin Academy peacefully for the rest of his life, he still hopes to seize the opportunity when he gets it.
Plating him with a layer of gold, he will be able to make further progress when he returns to the capital in the future.
Zhou Xunting did not expect his father's good intentions. He was originally unwilling to go to Beijing to serve as an official. Knowing that it was Jingning County that did not refuse - as a die-hard friend of Cui Weizhen, how could he not follow his friend's footsteps?
He had always been resentful because his friend was too difficult to work with and he couldn't do much to help him. Now that he finally had the opportunity to protect the Cui family of Jingning, he couldn't be happier.
The specific manifestation is now that after he drank a few more drinks, he excitedly put his arms around Cui Weizhen's shoulders and said boldly: "Weizhen, you can rest assured to do your important things in the capital. I will show you Jingning, the brother in the rear area."
Stay! As long as I am here, no one else can even think of bullying our Cui family!"
