Di Ying: "...To say that I am disgusted is serious. At most, I am a little impatient. But it is not directed at King Lu, but I am extremely impatient with these polite social interactions in the officialdom."
"Hey, sir? Can you tell me what the first couplet he said and what he said after it mean?"
There are two door gods outside the flower hall, besides Peng Liang and Nie Bo.
Nie Bo really didn't understand what was being said in the clouds and fog. Now, I asked.
Di Ying heard this and looked at Peng Liang.
Peng Liang shook his head and replied honestly: "I don't understand."
Di Ying: "..."
He walked toward the state government office and "translated" for them in a voice.
"The meaning of King Lu's first couplet actually depends on how you understand it. Where does the east wind come from in spring? It only comes in winter. And Xingzhou is located to the east of the capital city.
It also happens to be a place nearly a thousand miles away.
If we want to understand it in its best meaning, it means that from spring to winter, he misses His Majesty thousands of miles away day and night, wishing he could turn into the east wind and gallop back to meet him.
If you want to understand it as selfishness: he is thinking about it day and night, galloping thousands of miles back to the capital city.
As for what to do back? If others don’t say it, you just have to understand it yourself.
In both cases, he actually wanted to explore my feet and where I was standing.
And I couldn't understand the best, nor his selfishness. I just thought he was asking me: Why are you here?
After all, my sudden appearance was like the east wind in spring. How did it come here? I looked tired from all the travels, and it was obvious that I had come here at a gallop. What are you here for?
So I understood and told him straightforwardly: I came here just for those murder cases.
Who told him to talk in roundabout ways, right?
Then he warned me unhappyly. Let me keep him out of trouble. In official matters, he will support me and make others cooperate with me. For the rest, if I am not the Dongfeng he wants, then I can go back to where I am after I finish my business. "
Peng Liang: "..."
Nie Bo: "..."
After a while, Peng Liang sighed with emotion: "My lord, you shouldn't just know the classics and become an official. Your talent for understanding poetry is really very high."
Di Ying: "...You hit people in the face, right?"
After glaring at Peng Liang, Di Ying finally sighed: "I can't help it. There are so many officials in the court. If I don't work hard in the future, I still have to lick my smile when I am scolded. Then How frustrating is it?"
After saying that, he wiped his face, pointed to a small noodle stall on the street and said: "I'm starving, go and eat some noodles. I'm afraid I'll have to go back and forth again."
Nie Bo immediately led the way.
He couldn't even remember where he had his last hot meal.
By the way, he muttered: "Obviously my adults are so nice, but King Nalu refuses to treat me to a meal or anything. It's so stingy."
Di Ying: "..."
How did he choose this idiot in the first place?
Peng Liang blinked his eyes and said, "Who told us that our adults are not welcomed by most officials?"
Di Ying: "...What are you talking about? I don't want to lose face?"
The guards laughed.
But my heart was sour.
But even with this rare hot meal, they couldn't stop eating.
As soon as the store served it, Wei Xiuyi, the director of Xingzhou Prefecture Government Office, came.
Within a state, the affairs of villages, townships, towns, and counties are under the jurisdiction of the county magistrate;
What about those in Zhoucheng? And what about the villages included in the city? It will be under the control of the director of the state government.
Where is the government office? Just let the county magistrate and director report it.
There are clear levels of jurisdiction and clear division of labor.
Only Di Ying ran around, came around, and took care of things. When looking for someone, it doesn’t matter what kind of official the person is.
This Wei Xiuyi was as black and thin as a bamboo pole blackened by fireworks.
The director's official robe was swaying on his body.
He hurried over after receiving the notice from the governor and the servants arranged by him.
He had already run too far, but because there were dozens of strong young men crammed into such a small noodle stall, and he looked like he was no ordinary guy at first glance, he finally caught his attention.
Therefore, when I came to ask, the two parties had officially met.
Di Ying greeted the other party: "Come, come, sit down and have a bowl together. It just happened to be served."
Wei Xiuyi was not polite when he heard this. After thanking him with his hands, he plucked the hem of his large robe and sat on a long wooden bench.
I pulled the bowl of noodles in front of me twice and then started eating.
Peng Liang, who gave him a seat and some noodles, asked the store owner to get another bowl of noodles, and then he and Nie Bo squeezed in to sit down.
None of this affected Wei Xiuyi.
It was as if he had been ordered to eat and drink.
Di Ying glanced at him and lowered her head to eat.
Both of them were eating like "Xilihulu" for a while.
After eating, Wei Xiuyi wiped his mouth with a cloth handkerchief, and then stood aside, with his hands hanging down, his head slightly lowered, and he stood there motionless.
Di Ying glanced at him, then continued eating, deliberately slowing down a bit.
A bowl of noodles is not enough for the guards. If he also puts down the bowl and uses Wei Xiuyi's posture... he will surely lead the way.
Then the guards would not have enough to eat.
Di Ying thought for a while and then asked Xiu Yi: "Master Wei, do you know why I am here? I would like to ask Master Wei: I wonder if those cases of family extermination have any common characteristics?" "
When Wei Xiuyi heard the question, he raised his hands, his head was still hanging, and his eyelids were still closed. He replied calmly: "I don't dare to ask Mr. Lao Di. It's just that it's not appropriate to talk about business outside. I'll wait for you to finish." For lunch, how about we go back to the state office and discuss it later?"
Di Ying: "...Okay."
He kept holding the chopsticks and drank the noodle soup one mouthful at a time.
I was thinking in my heart: Sure enough, what is the way of the superior officials, and what are the tricks of the officials below.
This Wei Xiuyi obviously looks like a neat person, but his impossibly clean clothes and his mouth have the tone of a scholar...
Obviously, he was forced to learn like this.
The guards knew their master's intention and all ate faster. After a while, they all put down their bowls and stood up.
It wasn't until they all stood up that Di Ying put down her chopsticks, rubbed her belly and stood up slowly.
But no matter how much he procrastinated, Wei Xiuyi always had that "dead look", not rushing or rushing.
The footsteps leading the way are always five steps ahead of Di Ying's left side.
It's like being extremely well behaved.
Di Ying's teeth hurt from looking at him.
After entering and sitting down in the main hall of the state government office, Wei Xiuyi asked people to bring over all the cases of the family extermination case.
Then put the case boxes on the table on Di Ying's right hand one by one in order.
Then he immediately went to the next place. The head is still slightly lowered, the eyelids are slightly lowered, and the hands are hanging down.
Business is handled in a very formal and formal manner.
Di Ying suddenly thought: No matter what happens if I put a talisman on this person's forehead, will he still be able to walk with a bounce...
