But what is supposed to come will come sooner or later, and what is not supposed to come will not come uninvited.
There is a law for everything.
It does not change based on personal likes and dislikes.
On Yuri, Kong Fang, who was helpless, took office.
The crisp ringing of horse bells broke the silence of the early morning country road. An open carriage drove slowly. In the car sat the distracted Kong Fang, Fang Shibo drove the car, and Fang Shiqing's two sisters escorted him on horseback.
Fang Shiqing rides a bay-red horse, with three thousand black silk buns tied into a high bun, and a beaded silver chain on her forehead. She is very powerful. Her eyes are sharp, her nose is high, and she is dressed in black, which shows her strength. , the red cloak fluttered in the wind, highlighting her heroic appearance.
Fang Shiyi is riding a white horse. Her shawl-length hair is fluttering in the wind, her eyes are like water, her eyebrows are smiling, her nose is red and her lips are red, and her skin is like snow. She is wearing a tight-fitting pink robe, an emerald green smoked gauze skirt, and a gold waistband. The silk ribbon is soft and thin, and the thin veil of light blue green water is as elegant as a fairy.
The two sisters, with their swords hanging from their waists, were particularly conspicuous on the ancient road in the early morning, attracting numerous astonished glances from passers-by.
"Shibo, what if Zhu Chongjiu wants to kill me?"
The outline of Qinghe County was already vaguely visible, but Kong Fang was still struggling.
"Huh, he has to ask me first if I agree." Fang Shibo flicked his whip without looking back.
Kong Fang was very dissatisfied with his answer.
Wow, it sounds like his life is in his hands. Who gave him the confidence?
"What if you agree?"
Fang Shibo was also dissatisfied with Kong Fang's problem. I am just young, not stupid. Although my brother-in-law is not a blood relative, he is still a close relative after all. If one person achieves enlightenment, a chicken or a dog can ascend to heaven.
Why did he improperly leave the county magistrate's brother-in-law alone, but instead helped Zhu Chongjiu, who couldn't hit eight shots?
Should such a stupid question come from the mouth of the county magistrate?
"I wouldn't agree to it unless my brain was kicked by a horse."
He patted the cloth bag hanging beside him, which contained 5 new versions of Sky Thunder.
Zhentian Lei is his support for challenging Zhu Chongjiu.
"Brother-in-law, don't always be downcast and let your eldest sister see her and make her angry. You are now the magistrate. If she hangs you up and beats you again, will you still lose face?"
Fang Shibo spoke earnestly and thoughtfully like a young adult. Kong Fang slapped him on the back of the head angrily, "What are you talking about, naughty kid? You've pissed me off. Believe it or not, I'll sentence you to death!"
"Xin——" Fang Shibo drawled.
"That's weird."
Kong Fang remained silent. If you argue with a naughty child, you will definitely be the one who gets angry in the end.
When we arrived at the county government office, unexpectedly Mr. Luo was also there. The three siblings hurried forward to salute, and Kong Fang followed closely. Unexpectedly, Mr. Luo hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
"Your Majesty, please don't do this, otherwise I will be harmed."
"I..." Kong Fang opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He has not yet entered the play. He is very unfamiliar with the role of magistrate and even resists it. He is not used to the cumbersome ancient etiquette.
"My lord, you are well."
Luo Wenpeng bowed his hands and his face was full of joy after successfully taking the blame. Kong Fang returned the gift with his hand. Faced with this Bole who recommended him, he had mixed feelings and didn't know whether he should thank him or not.
Luo Wenpeng waved, and a soldier behind him brought a tray. On the tray were placed the official seal and official uniforms of Qinghe County representing one party's power. Luo Wenpeng took the tray and presented it to Kong Fang.
"Kong Da, here are the official seal and official uniform of Qinghe County, please keep them."
Kong Fang stretched out his hand to take the official seal, and suddenly smelled the fishy smell of animal excrement, which was quite offensive.
"Brother Luo, this is..."
Luo Wenpeng smiled bitterly, "The official seal was found in the pig pen in the backyard of the county government office. I don't know why it was left in the pig manure pile. It was easy for me to find it, but the pigherder accidentally found it when he was cleaning the pig pen."
Before Kong Fang could reply, Luo Wenpeng had already turned around and scolded the soldiers, "What did you do? Didn't I ask you to wash the official printing clean? Why is it still smelling so strong?"
"Can you still do it? If you can't do it, get out of here!"
Top blame dumper!
Kong Fang wanted to raise his middle finger, but it seemed like thousands of grass and mud horses were whizzing past in front of his eyes.
The soldier lowered his head and said nothing, crying out for injustice in his heart. The official seal was washed by the swineherd, he was only responsible for bringing it up. But when the superior officer reprimanded him, he didn't dare to speak at all.
"Hey, Zhu Zhi County still raises pigs?" Kong Fang didn't want to dwell on this matter, and he didn't know how to smooth things over, so he changed the subject wisely.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, not only Fang Shiqing and Fang Shibo rolled their eyes, but even Fang Shiyi frowned slightly.
In previous lives, there was a saying in the Middle East: "Whether you are rich or not, you must first look at the trees."
In the Daxing Dynasty, there was a saying: "Whether you are rich or not depends on the pig first."
Pigs were a rare species in the Daxing Dynasty. Not only is its meat rich and plump, it is also extremely difficult to grow. If nothing else, how much food does it need to fill in a belly that takes up half of its body? Even the Fang family, the big landowner, was unwilling to raise her.
If the poor can't even feed themselves, how can they raise pigs?
Kong Fang suddenly felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere. They all looked at him strangely, as if they were looking at an idiot.
Damn, you are all a bunch of idiots.
Kong Fang cursed secretly.
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming, please be prepared to pay tribute to the official seal." Mr. Luo reminded kindly, and at the same time motioned to Kong Fang to place the official seal on the public case, and other soldiers helped to place the incense burner and present the sandalwood.
Kong Fang lit sandalwood and bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the official seal.
After the ceremony, he officially became the lord of Qinghe County. With responsibility on my shoulders, my whole temperament has changed a lot, becoming mature, steady, wise and responsible.
He first sent the Fang sisters to check the finances of Qinghe County. The troops and horses were not moved, but the food and grass went first. He needed to find out his family's financial situation before he could make overall arrangements.
He had no soldiers, so he borrowed them from Luo Wenpeng temporarily.
Anyway, Luo Wenpeng is also in the county government these days, and the soldiers are idle, so why not find something for them to do. The soldiers are all spirited young men with excess energy, and being a guest officer is just what they want.
Mr. Luo was a well-known official in the officialdom. For the sake of the three Fang siblings, he used his spare energy to help Kong Fang form the leadership team of Qinghe County.
Kong Fang recommended Kong Yiji, who had a close relationship with him, to be his master. It happened that Mr. Luo was familiar with Kong Xiucai, and his character and knowledge were indeed qualified for the position of master.
So Kong Fang asked Mr. Luo to write a letter and send it to the soldiers.
Kong Yiji had just returned from Dou Ying's house at this time. When Dou Ying was taken prisoner, Dou Tong was injured by bandits. As a scholar, he had no power to save Dou Ying, so he had to endure his grief and anger to take care of his mentor.
Yesterday, Dou Ying suddenly came home and told that he had been rescued by Kong Fang and his party. He also lamented that there is a miracle in life. The magpies were chirping in front of the door this morning. How can there be any joy in the chaos of war?
He was impatient and picked up a stone to drive the magpie away. As soon as he got home, a soldier sent him a letter from Cheng.
"Master Dou, Master Dou..."
He took a quick look at Cheng Shu, then ran all the way back to the Dou family. Kong Fang took office as the magistrate of Qinghe County, which gave him hope of relieving the Dou family.
