Seeing that Huiji's expression didn't look fake, Liu Yijin had a strange look on his face: "I'm just a small long-term worker in Qinghe Town. You wouldn't say that the emperor knows me, right?"
"Your Majesty doesn't know you, but you have done great things, and if you can find that official silver, it means that you can also find other official coins, and through this matter, you can spread the influence of Maitreya Buddhism in Qingshui County. Dig out the foundation.”
Seeing Hui Ji speaking so firmly, Liu Yijin became livid with anger: "I am just a long-term worker, not a powerful person. Besides, this matter should be a matter under the control of the imperial court. Wei Ming is the wolf guard, and Liu Xin is the county magistrate, when will it be my turn? Besides, wouldn’t the court take action faster than me?”
Huiji sighed: "Once the court takes action, Maitreya Buddhism will know that even the all-pervasive Wolf Guard is sometimes not omnipotent. But your identity is the most suitable."
"Just because I'm a permanent employee?"
"That's right." Hui Ji nodded: "I have received the news that Liu Xin will fully cooperate with your work, and there is also news from the Wolf Guard that Wei Ming will come directly to help you thoroughly investigate the stolen official silver and Maitreya Buddhism. "
"Liu Yijin, this is His Majesty's order. Besides, you found Yuan Kong and Yuan Zhen and protected the reputation of my Miao Miao Temple. You deserve this inner strength."
"Old-fashioned, stupid!"
Liu Yijin's face turned livid with anger: "Even if I am a fool, I still know the importance of inner strength for a warrior. If you give your inner strength to me, you will die. It is simply inexplicable!"
After Liu Yijin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out: "Huineng, take me back!"
Huineng turned around and glanced at Huiji, who smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Well, since he doesn't want it, just give him all the Great Return Pills in the temple."
Hui Neng breathed a sigh of relief obviously, turned around and took Liu Yijin down the mountain.
"Thank you."
Liu Yijin glanced at Huineng and said: "No, if I didn't want that old monk to live a few more days, I really wanted him to pass on his inner strength to me. That's a dozen years' worth of inner strength. Just think about it. greedy."
Yuan Zhen died, Li Ping'er ran away, all the squire's homes in Qinghe County suffered varying degrees of damage, and the death of the mayor Zhou Bao made the entire Qinghe Town enveloped in a layer of tension.
As soon as the county magistrate Liu Xing arrived in Qinghe Town, Zhao Kui and Han Shouren hurried over.
"Sir, things in the town are simply too bad. Bao Yi's death this week has turned into a pot of porridge."
Han Shouren glanced at Liu Xin: "Sir, my Han family is considered a big family in this town. If you appreciate me, I can take on this important task and lead the whole town to catch those hateful guys from Maitreya Buddhism. "
Zhao Kui also hurriedly said: "Sir, my Zhao family can do it too, and now we have found several suspicious places. I suspect that the people living in these places are probably Maitreya Buddhists."
"Really?" Liu Xin glanced at them lightly, then her eyes fell on the people next to her: "What do you think?"
These people were obviously divided into two camps, some complimented Zhao Kui, and some recommended Han Shouren.
Liu Xin smiled lightly and said, "After Zhou Bao died, where is Zhou's wife Nie Rong now?"
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what Liu Xin meant by this.
"My lord, what do you mean?"
Zhao Kui's eyes lit up at the side: "Sir, although this woman Nie Rong is good-looking, her figure is petite and exquisite, I'm afraid."
Before Zhao Kui finished speaking, Han Shouren sneered and said, "Zhao Kui, how can you introduce a woman like Nie Rong to the Lord? How can the Lord like such a woman?"
After speaking, Han Shouren smiled flatteringly and said, "Sir, although Nie Rong is a widow, if you need her, I can let her..."
Liu Xin sneered: "Zhou Bao was kind to you when he was alive, right? Wouldn't it be bad for you to add insult to injury like this?"
Han Shouren said: "You don't know something, sir. Zhou Bao took advantage of us a lot when he was here. We have to give him money every year."
"That's right, Zhou Bao is like this. He looks very honest, but in fact he is anything but."
Liu Xin smiled and said: "Zhou Baogang died, and you are slandering him like this? If the position of mayor is given to you, then Nie Rong will probably have no hope of survival."
Zhao Kui and Han Shouren looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
Liu Xin looked at the two of them coldly: "The Zhao family and the Han family are indeed two big families, but the position of mayor of Qinghe Town cannot be won by just a big family."
"You two are not qualified."
Zhao Kui and Han Shouren stood aside with pale faces, not daring to express their anger.
Liu Xin turned around and looked at the guard beside her: "Has Liu Yijin arrived?"
"Sir, you are waiting outside the door."
Liu Xin looked at Liu Yijin who walked in and said bluntly: "Yijin, the mayor of Qinghe Town, you can do it."
Zhao Kui and Han Shouren's expressions changed drastically: "Sir, how can this be done..."
Liu Xin sneered: "It is Wolf Guard Master Wei's intention to make Liu Yijin the mayor. If you have any objections, you can go to Master Wei."
Zhao Kui and Han Shouren were so angry that they dared not speak out.
Liu Yijin waved his hands hurriedly: "I'm not suitable. I'm just a long-term worker and can't be the mayor."
"I say I can do it!" Liu Xin said with a smile: "Letting you be the mayor is not only my intention but also the intention of Mr. Wei, the wolf guard, and your boy's reputation is now known even to the imperial court. "
Liu Yijin was stunned: "Sir, I just happened by chance. All the credit for this is due to your strategizing and Master Zhou Bao taking the lead. It's just a pity for the mayor..."
Seeing Liu Yijin's true feelings revealed, Liu Xin couldn't help but sigh in her heart, what a good person. He doesn't take credit or fight for anything. Such a person deserves his rapid rise.
"Liu Yijin, from now on, I will leave the affairs of the town to you. This time, I have brought you five thousand elite soldiers, and Mr. Wei will be coming to Qinghe Town tomorrow."
Liu Yijin was stunned: "Sir, I don't know anything."
"It can be taught. No one is born to be an official."
Liu Xin glanced at Zhao Kui and Han Shouren who were standing beside them stupidly: "You guys, if you dare to do anything wrong in the future, don't blame me for being rude."
Zhao Kui and Han Shouren nodded hurriedly, "Sir, you are joking, how dare we."
Liu Xin waved her hand: "Okay, you go down first."
After everyone left, Liu Xin looked at Liu Yijin: "Yijin, you have a long way to go from now on."
Liu Yijin said with a wry smile what Hui Ji said last night: "Sir, I am really not qualified for this position. I think you should hire someone else."
Liu Xin smiled: "Even if you don't want to take over now, you can't do it anymore. The formal appointment letter has been issued."
Liu Yijin held the appointment letter with a helpless face and led a team of elite soldiers back to Zhou Mansion. After receiving the news, Song Lian and Wang Ying hurried out.
The two of them looked at Liu Yijin nervously: "Yijin, what is this?"
Liu Yijin smiled bitterly and said, "I am the mayor now."
"What?" Song Lian was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "I knew you little guy was capable, but I didn't expect you to become a mayor so quickly."
Liu Yijin smiled bitterly: "I don't want to be the mayor of this town, but I have no choice."
Wang Ying stood aside and looked at Liu Yijin with a smile, her eyes burning: "You are the most suitable mayor for this."
"Second Madam, please stop teasing me."
Wang Ying said softly: "The higher your position, the safer we will be."
Liu Yijin was shocked and couldn't help but nodded.
In the afternoon, five thousand elite soldiers arrived in Qinghe Town.
Liu Yijin asked fifty elite soldiers to protect Zhou Mansion. Song Lian excitedly took Liu Yijin's hand and said, "I knew you were the most powerful."
In full view of everyone, Liu Yijin was held by Song Lian's hand, and his expression suddenly became awkward: "Godmother, so many people are watching."
Song Lian snorted: "Who is your godmother? You are the mayor now. I dare not recognize you as my godson."
"From now on you will be Liu Yijin, Mayor Liu Da."
"And I'm just the eldest lady of the Zhou family."
Song Lian did not hide her thoughts at all. Perhaps only in this way could Liu Yijin be firmly tied to the Zhou Mansion.
