It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 386

When Yuan Jia prepared the food and delivered it, Yuan Mu and Mu Liuyun had just discussed the next day's affairs.

Yuan Yi was sent back to the Criminal Division to handle errands, and he couldn't come back for a while. Yuan Mu stopped Yuan Jia and told him some matters for the next day. Having been by Yuan Mu's side for so many years, I still know what he told me, and know how to do it.

Yuan Mu was still at ease with him, and he explained it more carefully than Yuan Yi, so he let Yuan Jia go down.

Mu Liuyun was very hungry a long time ago. Now that she has taken a bath comfortably, she looks refreshed and her appetite is even better. She has been raised by Mrs. Mu as her son since she was a child, so she has not been punished by any boudoir rules. Having been restrained, even now that he and Yuan Mu are sitting at the same table and eating together, they never think about being reserved or not when eating, and they still enjoy it with gusto.

Yuan Mu saw that she was eating deliciously, and the food in his mouth seemed to taste extraordinarily good.

Mu Liuyun has developed a habit since she was a manager, and her eating speed has never been too slow. After all, if she catches up with an errand at hand, how can she have the time to sit there and eat slowly for a long time.

And Yuan Mu had experience in the army, so he ate food quite quickly.

The two of them were almost finished eating, Yuan Jia took out the dishes, and after he sent the servants away, he stood guard at the door, and then Mu Liuyun felt that he had something to ask Yuan Mu at ease.

"My lord..." As soon as Mu Liuyun opened his mouth, he saw Yuan Mu raised his eyebrows at himself, and was taken aback for a moment, realizing that it was a matter of titles that the two had just agreed upon, and grinned a little embarrassedly, "It's called habit." Yes, I haven’t changed it all of a sudden! Let’s talk about the business first, those are not important, I will pay attention to it slowly in the future!”

Although Mu Liuyun was a little distant from her title, but when she thought about how she faced her now, she seemed to be more and more relaxed and less nervous. This was more important than the title.

When Yuan Mu thought of this, his mood immediately improved a lot, and he nodded to Mu Liuyun.

"We came here this time, and we brought a lot of brothers who were appointed criminal officers, and we really did the right thing!" Mu Liuyun said to Yuan Mu, "But why did you... you have such an arrangement, it can't be in Before you came here, you already knew that Wang Xiu was a fool, and he didn't have any brains or rules when doing things, right?"

Yuan Mu was very satisfied with her change of words, but he still shook his head regarding Mu Liuyun's question: "Before I came here, I had never dealt with Wang Xiu, and I didn't care much about him. Nothing has been heard.

You were puzzled about this matter before, but we are outside and there are so many people talking, it is really inconvenient to explain more.

You are a person who grew up in Taiping County, so please answer me first, since you can remember, what kind of people have the successive parents and officials in Taiping County in Jiangzhou territory been like? "

Mu Liuyun thought about it carefully: "When I was too young, I didn't have much impression. When I got older, it seemed that the previous magistrates of Taiping County were not too bad, but they didn't do anything particularly good. It was like a decoration. It looks like it's nice to put there, but it doesn't work.

Later, when I became the manager of Jiangzhou Prefecture and joined the army, worked under Mr. Yang, and then dealt with the magistrate of Kong County in Taiping County, I gradually understood that ability is one thing. Under my hand, I am a county magistrate of Fuguo County, making sugar and acetic acid, sometimes doing more will make more mistakes, it is better to do less and make less mistakes. "

"Indeed, the county magistrate Kong of Taiping County talked about the situation, and your point of view can make sense. What about Wang Xiu?"

Mu Liuyun was stunned for a moment. Although Wang Xiu's Nanshun County can be regarded as under Lord Yang's command and a part of the Jiangzhou Prefecture, it is located in a remote place, just like Li Yuan's side. As long as it is not under Lord Yang's nose , it doesn't have to be so restrained, as long as you don't slap Mr. Yang in the face, Mr. Yang will not allow the county below to manage properly.

Wang Xiu's incompetence is not quite the same as that of Kong County Magistrate. He doesn't have so much external pressure.

But thinking about it carefully, the old county magistrate of Donggu County... doesn't seem to be much better than this Wang Xiu...

"Isn't the imperial court recruiting talented people these past few years? I remember opening Enke a few years ago?" Mu Liuyun became more and more weird as he thought about it, "Shouldn't there be many young and promising new officials?" Was he sent to various places to be a magistrate or something?

If I don't say it, I haven't thought of it. In my impression, it seems that Li Yuan and Mr. Li are the ones who asked to come here to take up the post... In our Jiangzhou territory, it seems that there has been no capable person for a long time... Cough cough ..."

As Mu Liuyun was talking, he suddenly realized that even if he said this in private in front of Yuan Mu, it was still a little bit of suspicion, so he quickly stopped talking, and did not continue to comment unscrupulously.

However, Yuan Mu understood her meaning and her concerns, and nodded to her: "It is true. Every year, young and promising people are promoted and appointed, but it is not Jiang's turn. State."

Mu Liuyun was taken aback for a moment, remembering that when the two of them returned to their home on Xunxiu, they had talked about something that seemed to be promoted in their father's study in their father's study, but it was actually worse than being demoted. appointment.

"Before this Lord Wang, the previous county magistrate of Nanshun County was fined to Daizhou because he was too capable?" Mu Liuyun remembered that he had chatted with Yuan Mu about Nanshun County before. Thinking about what they said just now about the matter of the previous county magistrate, I couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, "Could it be that Jiangzhou needs 'capable people' like Mr. Yang and Mr. Wang to operate certain things? Like the bandits who used to be extremely arrogant around Bei'an County?"

"Whether being transferred to Daizhou is a punishment or not, I'm afraid I can't generalize it. I don't know enough now, and I can't answer you." Yuan Mu shook his head, "I was transferred more than once in the border of Jiangzhou before. I was worried about Wang Xiu's level. Just to be on the safe side, I brought a team of the Criminal Division's own staff.

There is another question, I don't know if you have thought about it.

When did the banditry in Jiangzhou start and when did it intensify?Can there be any different changes before and after? "
