Chapter 115 The county government is promoted to court, and Lu Xuan resolves the case!

It's night.

The county magistrate's residence, in the study.

"The head of the Gu family, Gu Yang, is fifty-two years old. He is ruthless and has a lot of power..."

"The head of the He family, He Youde, is forty-nine years old and has a bad temper..."

"The head of the Bo family, Bo Chang... is only twenty years old this year, so young?"

Lu Xuan sorted out the information he collected.

At noon, Lu Xuan left several government officials behind.

After some questioning, I found out why everyone reacted like this when I ordered the resumption of the grievance drum.

Back then, the Qingxian Society stopped the grievance drum at the county government office.

The grievance drum is a bridge of communication between the yamen and the people. Without the grievance drum, the yamen would not be able to hear the voices of the people.

All affairs in Qingxian City must be handed over to the Qingxian Association.

This is the attitude of the three major families towards the county government, and it is also a hint.

Before this, there were also county magistrates who wanted to resume the grievance drum.

But among these people, they either gave in in the end and took the initiative to dismantle the drum and showed their goodwill to the Qingxian Society, or they died mysteriously and died in various accidents.

Rumor has it that the county magistrate offended Qingxian's authority and was punished.

"There must be people from the Qingxian Society among the government officials... Let me think about where to start."

Lu Xuan rubbed his temples.

Alas, I haven’t used my brain for a long time.

"There are five hundred officers and soldiers guarding the city in Qingxian City. They are all their people. Plus the thugs from the Qingxian Association, there are probably thousands of elites."

Cheng Lingzhu said:

"If you want to win over the three major families, you must take advantage of the people in the city... The drum of grievance has been re-established, and you have to find a way to establish the prestige of the county magistrate."

"That's true."

Lu Xuan nodded and continued to look through the files in his hand.

The two of them were in the house at this time, both of them restored to their original appearance.

The candlelight passed through the lampshade, and the girl looked at the man who was reading at the desk, with a bit of tenderness in her eyebrows.

She came behind Lu Xuan, hugged him gently, then put her chin on his shoulder and rubbed him a few times.

Lu Xuan was just about to turn his face and kiss her, but at this moment, there was movement outside the window.

Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu looked at each other and opened the window.

A white shadow rushed in and landed on the table.

"fox?"

Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment.

The study is located in an independent courtyard. Although there are weeds, it is kept clean. The fox must have broken in from outside.

The white fox was not afraid of strangers. He stepped on the files that Lu Xuan was reading, leaving a dirty paw print and blinking.

"Its hind legs are injured."

Cheng Lingzhu noticed what happened to the fox.

One of its hind legs was bloody and bloody, as if it had been bitten by something.

"You actually know how to ask for help without fearing that the person will have bad intentions."

Lu Xuan smiled and touched its head.

The little fox didn't resist, but gently rubbed his palm.

Lu Xuangang wanted to take out the elixir from the stored magic weapon to treat the fox, but stopped midway.

He got up and went to a cabinet and took out a bottle of golden medicine from above.

In Qingxian City, Lu Xuan decided to play the role of an ordinary county magistrate and try not to use magic.

The two of them worked together and spent a stick of incense cleaning the fox's wounds, sprinkling gold wound medicine on it, and bandaging it properly.

During the whole process, the little white fox was quiet, neither crying nor fussing, nor struggling, looking very well-behaved.

Cheng Lingzhu held its belly and touched its head.

Lu Xuan walked around in a circle, lifted the white fox's tail, and observed carefully:

"Well, she's still a female fox..."

Then the little fox kicked him with his uninjured hind leg to show his dissatisfaction.

"Hey, I'm still a little girl, how can I let you look at me casually?"

Cheng Lingzhu smiled and rolled his eyes at Lu Xuan.

"This fox seems to be spiritual."

Lu Xuan and the little white fox looked at each other.

The little fox turned his face away from him.

Then Lu Xuan reached out and flicked its forehead.

The two played with the little fox for a while, then saw that it was already getting late, so they placed the little fox in the courtyard and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

Early the next morning.

When Lu Xuan opened the door, he found a palm-sized fur ball squatting on the ground at the door.

It was the injured fox from yesterday.

Lu Xuan was a little surprised because the study and bedroom were not in the same yard. In other words, the white fox climbed over the wall and followed him.

Cheng Lingzhu bent down and touched its head:

"Okay, okay, I'm going to solve the case. I'll play with you when I get back."

As if she understood, the little fox rubbed her feet, then walked to a sunny place and lay down obediently.

………………

Inside the Yamen.

When Lu Xuan and Cheng Lingzhu appeared in the lobby, all the government officials had already arrived.

Yesterday's order was still effective. After all, no one wants to be punished.

This disappointed Lu Xuan, who came excitedly with a killing stick in hand.

Didn't anyone ask the county magistrate to give him a beating to scare the monkeys?

In the morning of this day.

Lu Xuan felt the boredom of being a county magistrate in Qingxian City.

Two whole hours.

It doesn't matter whether it's a trivial family matter or a major life case.

No one came to report to the official.

This gave Lu Xuan the illusion that Qingxian City had simple folk customs and good public security.

"Lu Ping, I told you yesterday to tell you on the streets in the city that the county government has reopened. Have you done this?"

Lu Xuan asked before exiting the hall.

"It's done!"

Because he only said two words, Lu Ping did not stutter this time.

"grown ups."

At this time, a short, lean and energetic young man came out of the queue with his fists clasped:

"Our county government office has just opened. Because of the previous lords, the people are probably afraid of the county government office. Although there are cases, they don't dare to enter."

This man's name is Li Ming, and he is the new county government superintendent.

After Lu Xuan took office, he promoted Lu Ping to be the chief clerk, and selected someone with a clean foundation and a flexible mind from the remaining yamen servants to become the new custodian.

After all, with Lu Ping's speaking speed, if he really had something to report, he would probably be anxious to death.

Li Ming speaks and acts neatly and is very suitable to be Lu Ping's mouthpiece.
