Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 168 Don’t be gullible and stay vigilant

"There are medicines that delay the time." Mrs. Wen had inquired about it a long time ago, and asked Dr. Hu to prepare it two years ago. "Doctor Hu has been looking for medicines in this area before. If you are worried about this, why didn't you go there before you came back? A trip to Dr. Hu’s hospital.”

"I wanted to go see Dr. Hu on the way back, but after thinking about it, I decided to forget it. I'll stop by when I take you to the posthouse tomorrow."

Wen Shi nodded, "You are right to do this. The more eager you are to do something, the easier it is to reveal flaws, so I would rather go slower. Try to be as reasonable as possible."

She held Meng Changqing's hand and said, "Doctor Hu knows your situation. He has already prepared for this kind of thing. You don't have to worry too much."

"Mother." Meng Changqing held Wen's hand back. She had some thoughts that she wanted to say, but she couldn't say them out because of worries. "Brother Dai will accompany you. Please be careful while I'm away."

"We will, and so will you."

Meng Changqing left the backyard and went to the front office to arrange matters.

The persons in charge of several tasks of the county government are already waiting in Meng Changqing's study, and even the Imperial Guards are also there.

"Everyone, has Bafang told you that I am going to the capital?" Meng Changqing asked quickly after sitting down.

Yang Zheng and others nodded, "My lord, it's a long way to go. It's best to bring more people with you to make it safer."

"There is an urgent call from the capital. There is no need to delay. Too many people will inevitably delay the trip." Meng Changqing had already thought about the personnel arrangements on the way back. "So this time I only brought a few brothers from Bafang and Yulin Army, and the others stayed behind. County government, do whatever you have to do, Brother Yang, please help me watch over those lazy ones."

Xi Bei, who was leaning on the bookshelf, stood up straight and said, "I have to go with you."

"Master, you are the master. You should guard the county office after I leave."

Xi Bei: "I don't know a lot of Chinese characters. What kind of master do I want to be? What kind of county government office do I have to guard? Let Bafang do it well."

Bafang was about to say something, but Meng Changqing raised his hand to stop him.

"Master, we will discuss your matters later. I will first explain the matters that the county government needs to pay attention to." "Brother Zuo, if you want to access things from the treasury during my absence, you must discuss it with Brother Yang. Just use each other's seals, remember, nothing is important to anyone, don't force yourself to follow the rules and put the people in the county into trouble."

Zuo Datou nodded, "I took note of it."

Yang Zheng heard the problem in the words, "Why do you say this, sir?"

"You also know the situation in Yangmen County. There is no guarantee of what it will turn into in the end, so you must be on guard." Meng Changqing said, "There are also dangerous mountains nearby. You must pay attention and never relax for a moment."

"Speaking of this, I was just about to report this to you." Yang Zheng asked: "Those who were dragged to build the wall before took their families down the mountain. Regardless of the severe cold weather, they dug pits in the place we allocated."

Zuo Datou added, "People from our county government also went to help and even came up with some advice."

"Let's talk about it."

Yang Zheng went on to say: "According to them, there was a local emperor in the mountains. They made a living under the big family named Ma. They had not had an easy life these years, so the government gave them land and did not investigate their past. Many of them Everyone is willing to go down the mountain.”

"It's a very general statement." Meng Changqing said, "Don't listen to what they say, in short, you must be careful.

When it comes to accepting new people, we should rather be suspicious and conservative than be bold and gullible, especially those who come down from the mountains. We must first ensure the safety of the original population of more than a thousand. "

Meng Changqing explained the affairs in detail, thinking that the person in charge would forget it, so he also made a list to the other party.

Several people discussed in the study room for an hour before the first group of people came out.

In addition to Meng Changqing, there were also Xi Bei, Bafang, Yang Zheng and two imperial guards left in the study.
