Chapter forty-ninth

Luo Li woke up in the morning, washed up, and slowly left the city with Zhou Zheng and others.

Otherwise, Zhang Ling was a sensible person and had been waiting outside the inn early in the morning, and he had not stepped into it, as if there was a gap in the way.

Luo Li was very contemptuous about this, which was called being a green pond and erecting a archway!

Amid the laughter of farewell, the team left Ningshan County and headed towards Qingnan County on the border.

In the past, when I went to Shuguo, most of them left the country from Qingnan County, Anguo, and then entered the country from Qingdong County, Shuguo, which means that I could meet the long-lost magistrate Yue Wu and Lang County.

Luo Li was slightly excited with a long time of missing her and missing her very much.

But what happened next made him angry!

All reasons arise from the right moment!

The cheeky king didn't know what he thought. Whenever he came to the city, he would use the same trick again and again, and repeatedly pushed Luo Li out.

"The deputy envoy, Lord Luo, said he would go and understand the people's sentiment!"

"The deputy envoy, Lord Luo, said this antique is quite beautiful!"

"The deputy envoy, Lord Luo, said he would buy local specialties and go back to taste them for his family!"

Anyway, no matter where, the deputy envoy Luo said it, and it has nothing to do with Zhou Zheng.

Once it is time to collect the money, Zhou Zheng will rush to take it and come back and divide it into four parts for everyone.

Of course, Li Zimi is very satisfied. Whether he has money or not, Luo Li will blame him. Where can I find such a good thing?

At first, Luo Li resisted a little, but later he became numb and let him go and let him go. Zhou Zheng said, but everyone was guilty of the accident in the end.

Having said that, Luo Li still felt uncomfortable and thought that one day she would find the place back!

Half a month passed, Anguo's domestic journey has gone halfway, and he collected more and more money, and Luo Li's panic became increasingly aggravated.

In the end, I had to bite the bullet and urge Zhou Zheng to speed up his progress, so that there would be fewer opportunities to enter the city, less money would be charged, and it would not be easy to get into trouble!

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zheng refused, saying that it was not for collecting money, but for preventing Luo State from discovering the purpose of the mission.

It usually takes about two months to arrive in Xijing, Shuguo. If the daily speed is extremely fast, the spies from Luo Kingdom will definitely doubt whether Anguo is going to make big moves.

Therefore, moving forward slowly is to hide the eagerness to form an alliance.

"Ah! Brother just wants to charge more money!" Luo Li spat disdainfully.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zheng was a bachelor, and said with a smirk: "Hehe! I've actually seen it by my brother, so that's right!"

OK! Luo Li was completely speechless, let him go!

After arriving at the ball, I finally arrived in Qingnan County one month after departure.

The long-lost county town made Luo Li's memories flow into his heart.

I met Fatty, Yue Wu, and the magistrate of Lang County. I relied on my urgent and intelligent advice to defeat Sun Li's rebels, and offended Qiu En all started from Qingnan County.

After coming back to his senses, he saw the familiar faces of Yue Wu and Lang County Magistrate, Luo Li smiled and greeted him.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Yue Wu has experienced much more vicissitudes than before. The reason is that Sun Li rebelled and was punished by the court and demoted from the border general to the border deputy general.

Emperor Anguo still thought of his past contributions and did not send a general in the border town to the pass of Qingnan County, so Yue Wu was still the top leader.

Of course, Sun Li's fate was much more miserable. He was first escorted to Shangjing, and then was sent to the Hei Shuiwei Tianzhu, and finally sentenced Qiuhou Lingchi!

The Sun family was implicated and sentenced to destroy the three tribes. Some time ago, the Heishui Guard arrested people everywhere. Anguo was in a panic for a while, and everyone who had connections with Sun Li closed their doors!

After the greetings, night came, just like other county towns, County Magistrate Lang also set up a banquet to entertain everyone.

Since Luoli came from Qingnan County, County Magistrate Lang had no worries about his head and was able to use a table of big fish and meat to control it!

After drinking and eating, everyone returned to the inn. It seemed very right, but it was not right!

Lying on the bed, Luo Li pondered hard and still wondered why Zhou Zheng did not have the magistrate of Elang County this time!

In addition, I have received too much money recently and my mental pressure is huge, so Luo Li has completely lost insomnia!

When he opened the door and came to the breeze yard, Luo Li, who could not sleep, counted the stars on his back.

“Cruff!”

The sound of opening the door came. Zhou Zheng, dressed in a single dress, walked out of the door and said with a smile: "I just heard the sound of opening the door, and I knew it was a virtuous brother when I guessed!"

Seeing that Luo Li had never paid attention to it, Zhou Zheng approached and asked with concern: "Insomnia?"

"Yes!" Luo Li nodded.

"Why?" Zhou Zheng asked.

Lowering his head, Luo Li sighed and said, "Brother, Is there no pressure in his heart?"

Zhou Zheng widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "Just brother is for this?"

"Yeah!" Luo Li replied.

"Hi! I thought why I disturbed my good brother. It turned out that I just collected some money!" Zhou Zheng laughed and slapped Luo Li's shoulder.

Small money? Just?

Luo Li was completely speechless!

The money I received in recent days can almost buy the house given to him by Wang Yuanzhi in the capital. You can imagine how terrible it is!

If someone is reported or investigated, he will definitely not be able to escape!

"Come on! Let's sit down, listen to me!" Zhou Zheng pulled Luo Li's sleeve, and the two sat side by side on the steps.

After clearing his throat, Zhou Zheng licked his face and asked, "Are you good brother?"

Turning his head, Luo Li stared at him in a daze. Isn’t it that he solved the problem? How can he carry forward his thick-skinned spirit?

Zhou Zheng was stared at and blushed slightly, and said with a smirk: "Cough cough! Forget it, let's change the problem for me! Do you think corrupt officials are afraid of Your Majesty?"

"Scared!" Luo Li replied without hesitation.

"What kind of corrupt official is not afraid of Your Majesty? Do you know if you are a virtuous man?" Zhou Zheng asked again.

Luo Li was stumped!

According to the principle, any kind of corrupt officials will be afraid of the emperor. At the least, the official position will be unsecured, and at the worst, the head will be destroyed. How can there be corrupt officials who are not afraid of it?

Unable to think of the answer, Luo Li had to shake her head.

"If you are useful corrupt officials, you are not afraid of Your Majesty!" Zhou Zheng said with a smile.

"What's this mean?" Luo Li was stunned!

Seeing that it was difficult to understand, Zhou Zheng slowly revealed: "No matter the size of the official position, in fact, every official has its own usefulness, but this is not enough!"

"If you want to do what Your Majesty thinks you are useful, then you don't have to worry about Your Majesty's investigation into your corruption!"

"Because Your Majesty wants to use you, I can't bear to kill you!"

"Greed, you can be greedy, but you can be greedy. Remember not to be greedy at will!"

"Some money can be taken, some money can't be taken. You have to know this!"

"For example, you can take the money that the filial piety of the county magistrates along the way. The reason is very simple. They need to go to the Beijing Tianguan to say a few good words. This is a simple task and it is very easy to do."

"But when you arrive in Qingnan County, have you ever seen me pay for my brother? The reason is very simple. The border can squeeze out oil and water, which means that the people are living a bad life, and it is very easy for officials to force the people to rebel, which leads to major problems in Anguo. You can't get such hot money!"

"If County Magistrate Lang forced himself, not only would he not take it, but he would also report it immediately!"

"In a word, mediocre corrupt officials are afraid of collecting more money, and useful corrupt officials are afraid of collecting less money!"

Such fallacies make Luo Lilei's outside burning and tender inside really deserve to be a shameless king, and his excuse for collecting money is so high-sounding.

However, Zhou Zheng was right. The deeper the contact, the more he found that his communication skills were very strong and he could convince the other party in just a few words.

If Luo Li was the Emperor of Anguo, he would be reluctant to kill such a talent who was not greedy.

After a while, Luo Li came back to his senses and asked, "But brother, if His Majesty finds a replacement minister, wouldn't it be dangerous?"

Zhou Zheng laughed to the sky: "Haha! That's why we must strive to be your Majesty's useful ministers, not mediocre people!"

"Hu~" Luo Li exhaled the turbid air, and the stone in her heart finally landed on the ground, and her body felt extremely relaxed.

Not to mention the future, at least Luo Li is very useful at the moment. Emperor Anguo values ​​him very much in a short period of time, so he can accept the silver notes with peace of mind!
