Chapter 37

The Dalong Dynasty is divided into 36 provincial capitals in the world, and prefectures and counties are set up under the prefectures. The size of the prefectures is divided into upper, middle and lower prefectures according to the number of people in the prefectures and counties.

Jinling is the most important area in the south, with a large population and a prosperous agricultural business. Therefore, it is Shangzhou. The governor of Shangzhou is Qirun, a third-rank official of the Dalong Dynasty.

Although Qi Run has not had any significant political achievements since he was appointed as the prefect of Jinling, his victory lies in his honesty and selflessness as an official, and he is deeply loved by the people of Jinling.

However, although Qi Run is an honest and upright official, he is somewhat pedantic in character and places too much emphasis on reputation, so he seems to have some shortcomings.

Qi Mansion is located on Peacock Street in Jinling City. It is one of the best locations in the city. It is only separated by a wall from the Governor's Yamen, which is convenient for office work and shows the status of the court.

Qi Runding asked Liu Mingzhi to come to see him today, because today is the day for the yamen to rest, which is similar to the weekends in later generations, but if there is an emergency case, the yamen must be on duty normally.

For example, when the rebels are in rebellion, there is a life lawsuit and other major matters, the day when you are off Mu has to go to the yamen to handle the case honestly. It will be recorded in the book, and when the DPRK and the central government assess the performance of officials, it is a big stain, ranging from ineffectiveness to relegation.

Qi Run is looking at the files sorted out by the servants in the study. All the files are all records of Liu Mingzhi from childhood to adulthood, including what he did in Jinling over the years.

The more the information went on, the more ugly Qi Run's face became. The things recorded on it were simply appalling. Qi Run couldn't help but hesitated whether it was really correct to marry his daughter to Liu Mingzhi.

"Liu Zhi'an, ah Liu Zhi'an, you are really vicious. You played such a vicious game for this official."

Qi Run picked up a letter with a small book full of pages on it, signed Song Yu, the minister of military affairs, and Li Yang, the king of Duan.

It probably means that he heard that the governor of Qi has a daughter in his boudoir, and there happens to be an adopted son who has not yet been married. It seems that it is a match made in heaven. I hope that Qi Run can be beautiful as an adult.

Qi Run lamented: "Song Yu, Minister of War, Li Yang, Duan Wang, Liu Zhi'an, the richest man in Jiangnan, and Liu Mingzhi, a playboy, are not very good people. It seems that it is impossible not to marry."

The knock on the door interrupted Qi Run's thoughts: "Who is it?"

"Reporting to the lord, little Song Shan, the old housekeeper Qi said that someone outside the door came to give an order, and let the lord go to meet him."

Qi Run became puzzled, an order?I am the prefect of Jinling, who sent me an order to meet me.

Qi Run suddenly came to his senses: "Could it be the arrow from the Jiangnan Grand Governor's Mansion?"

"Little I don't know."

Qi Run tidied up his robes: "Let Qi Yong invite the messenger to sit in the main hall for a while, the official will be there soon."

Qi Run went to the room to change into a formal robe, and walked to the main hall calmly: "Qi Run, the governor of Jinling, the governor, do you know where the arrow of the governor's mansion is?"

A white-faced middle-aged man put down the teacup in his hand, and said to Qi Run, "Shangguan is Qi Run, the prefect of Jinling? Let's ask Gao Yu to follow the order of our ancestor Zhou Da."

Qi Run looked at Gao Yu suspiciously: "Aren't you from the Grand Governor's Mansion?"

Gao Yu took out a gold medal from his arms: "Shangguan misunderstood, we came from the capital, and the ancestors in the palace asked us to come here by word of mouth."

Seeing the gold medal in Gao Yu's hands, Qi Run's expression changed, and he immediately saluted: "Qi Run, the prefect of Jinling under the jurisdiction of the Grand Governor of Jiangnan, welcomes the decree."

Gao Yu took out a scroll of silk from his arms. Although Li Zheng said it was a password, Zhou Fei naturally couldn't take it lightly. If the little eunuch who sent the order said something wrong, the fault would be his, the chief in charge.

"Jinling's son Liu Mingzhi has a lazy personality and is not ashamed of those who study. I heard that he is a rough jade in the mountains and needs to be polished. Jinling's parents, Qi Run, are hereby ordered to strictly discipline them so as not to delay their studies. its from."

"Chen Qi Run received the ensign, Sheng Gong'an."

Gao Yu carefully helped Qi Run up and handed the silk book to Qi Run. Qi Run did not dare to be careless and took the silk book respectfully.

Handing the silk book to the housekeeper beside him, Qi Run took out a piece of silver and stuffed it in his pocket. Gao Yu glanced around quietly, and the silver immediately disappeared without a trace.

"Father-in-law came from a long way and was exhausted by boat and car. This officer will immediately send someone to prepare drinks and treats."

"Lord Inspector don't have to be busy. We will go back to reply after we have passed the order, but I don't dare to delay."

Qi Run took out another piece of silver and stuffed it in the past: "Father-in-law, this official is very confused, this Liu Mingzhi is only a student in Jiangnan, how could His Majesty know about this person, and such a verbal order came?"

Gao Yu took the money again without knowing it: "Lord Inspector, I don't know how small it is, but we heard from the ancestors that this unicorn son Liu Mingzhi has won the heart of His Majesty. It is the right minister Tong Sansi and The Minister of the Left, Wei Yongdu, lamented that his son was a geek, and His Majesty shouted three unicorn sons in front of the civil and military court.

Qi Run hesitated: "Your Majesty ordered Liu Mingzhi to participate in the Qiu Wei, but this son does not understand the Four Books and Five Classics, how to participate in the Qiu Wei."

Gao Yu hesitated, and Qi Run stuffed another piece of silver.

Gao Yu leaned into Qi Run's ear and said, "Inspector Qi, His Majesty has not yet ordered this matter, and we also heard about it. Your Majesty intends to order your examiner to preside over this year's Autumn Festival in Jiangnan, saying that you will meet Liu at the palace examination no matter what. son."

Qi Run's complexion was as if he had to see it no matter what, so it was worth pondering.

"Lord Inspector, the password has arrived, we have to go back and reply."

Qi Run nodded flatly: "Qi Yong, send to Eunuch Gao."

"Damn it, I haven't seen the young master before. Who are you frightening with an orchid finger?"

Gao Yu blocked the two followers behind him with a gloomy expression: "Boy, be careful that misfortune comes out of your mouth."

Liu Mingzhi looked unhappy: "Young Master's heart is out of his mouth? You dare to threaten this Young Master after pumping the young master's horse for no reason. You are so loud."

"Your carriage is blocking our way. How about we whip him a few times. No one dares to block our way."

"Hey, Xiao Ye is so violent, the streets of Peacock Street are three or four feet long, and you can't get away from you little girls. You have to let Xiao Ye make way for you. What are you guys, you don't go to the street to inquire about it. When will I, Liu Mingzhi, give way to others in Jinling?"

Gao Yu's expression changed, and he looked at the arrogant and domineering Liu Mingzhi: "Your Excellency is Liu Mingzhi Liu Gongzi?"

"How?"

"I didn't expect to collide with Young Master Liu. We apologized to Young Master. I hope Young Master will let us go."

Liu Mingzhi saw that there was no major problem with the horse, and waved his hand impatiently: "Go, go, don't upset the young master."

After the three of Gao Yu left, Liu Mingzhi snorted: "I really thought that I was a crab, and I could walk sideways anywhere. If I didn't want to see the governor today, I would have to have a good reasoning with you."
