Magistrate Yuan, You've Been Tricked By That Kid!
"Brother Bo, you don't need to borrow from my father. If you really go, he'll beat you up.”
As Xu Miaojin spoke, she lowered her head and took out a stack of silver notes from her waist pocket, handing it to Zhu Bai. "Here, this is the dowry my father gave you. If you need money urgently, take it first.”
Zhu Bai stared blankly at Xu Miaojin before him. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he leaned forward to lightly touch Xu Miaojin's red lips.
Then, he rubbed Xu Miaojin's face and said happily,""My good wangfei, you have helped hubby a lot!”
Xu Miaojin's red lips were kissed by Zhu Bai, and her face was already slightly flushed.
With a swoosh, it turned completely red.
His breathing became increasingly rapid.
Zhu Bai placed the banknotes in his hand into the system. This stack of banknotes was a total of 220,000 taels.
Enough!
He could still save 20,000 taels!
After keeping the silver notes, Zhu Bai looked at the uneasy Xu Miaojin.
He reached out his hands to hold Xu Miaojin's burning cheeks and kissed her again…
······
following day
After a night of rest, the fatigue of the past few days had basically dissipated.
Xu Da got up and tidied up his clothes before going out.
Head to Qiongzhou Prefecture to visit Yuan Chongli.
According to the official rank, no matter what, it should not be Great General Xu who came to visit personally.
However, Xu Da came in a hurry last night and did not tell anyone about his identity.
natural
As the magistrate of Qiongzhou, Yuan Chongli had no way of knowing the news of General Xu Da going into Qiongzhou.
moreover
Because his daughter and son-in-law did not have a prince's mansion, they were temporarily living in a residence arranged by the state government.
Logically speaking, Xu Da should pay a visit personally.
Qiongzhou Prefecture Magistrate Yuan Chongli was not a talented governor, but he could be considered a conservative official.
Every day, he would go to the state capital court on time to handle documents.
In the three years under his jurisdiction, although Qiongzhou was still very poor, the public security had indeed improved significantly.
at this time
As usual, Qiongzhou Prefecture Magistrate Yuan Chongli was dealing with documents in front of the main hall.
Ma Ningyuan, who knew the same thing, had a flustered expression. He hurriedly ran in and panted heavily,"Lord…Lord Prefect! Great General Xu Da requests an audience!"
"What?!"
When Yuan Chongli heard this, he immediately stood up from his chair!
He took big strides and walked up to Ma Ningyuan." Did you hear that?”
Ma Ningyuan swallowed hard and nodded repeatedly.""Right outside the door!"
Hearing this, Yuan Chongli's muscles tensed up.
A prince came to the genius, and today, a Duke of Wei came.
Heavens! Was the luck of Qiongzhou going to change?
Yuan Chongli, the prefect of Qiongzhou, walked out of the hall with an uneasy feeling.
He remembered that the last time he saw General Xu Da was in Nanjing.
At that time, Yuan Chongli, who was standing at the very end of the civil service group, had seen the back of General Xu Da, who was standing at the head of the military officials.
Now that Great General Xu Da had actually paid him a personal visit, if not for Yuan Chongli knowing that Xu Da's son-in-law was here…
Then he would definitely think that he was dreaming.
Yuan Chongli, who was somewhat absent-minded, walked out of the hall and saw a middle-aged Confucian general in a long robe standing outside with his hands behind his back, leaning against the railing and looking into the distance.
Yuan Chongli's forehead was slightly hot as he walked towards the back of the middle-aged Confucian general.
When they were only five steps away from each other, Yuan Chongli kneeled on the ground.
With his hands on the ground, he smashed his head heavily onto the ground and said in a trembling voice,""I deserve to die! I didn't know that Great General had come and didn't welcome you. I hope Great General can forgive me!”
Xu Da, who was looking into the distance, heard the commotion behind him.
Only then did he retract his gaze and slowly turn around.
Looking at the kneeling Qiongzhou Prefecture Magistrate Yuan Chongli, he said,""Lord Yuan, there's no need to be so formal.”
Yuan Chongli, who was kneeling on the ground, said with a trembling voice," I dare not get up. The Great General arrived in Qiongzhou yesterday, but I was unaware of it. I did not receive him in advance, nor did I visit him in time. Now, the Great General has come personally. I am guilty!"”
"Get up! What crime is there!"
Xu Da raised his voice. He had always disliked people who kowtowed and shouted that they were guilty. However, he had heard of Yuan Chongli's conduct before, so he did not feel too disgusted. "I was in a hurry to see my daughter, so I didn't tell anyone. It's normal that you don't know.”
Yuan Chongli, who was kneeling on the ground, kowtowed a few more times before he carefully stood up.
Then, he respectfully welcomed Xu Da in.
Xu Da, who was sitting on the main seat, looked at the official documents on the table briefly and nodded. He said in agreement,"Lord Yuan, it is indeed a waste of your talent to stay in Qiongzhou.”
"I dare not…"
"In a few months, when I return to the capital, I'll help you put in a good word. At that time, I'll even return to the capital to become an official.”
After receiving Xu Da's permission, Yuan Chongli, who originally thought that he would spend the rest of his life in this remote village, immediately stood up and cupped his hands towards Xu Da."Thank you, Great General!"
Xu Da nodded, then looked at Yuan Chongli and asked curiously,""My son-in-law has been in your territory for two days. Tell me, what has he been doing these days?”
Magistrate Yuan Chongli did not dare to hide anything from Xu Da.
moreover
He didn't think there was anything to hide.
Then, he told Xu Da everything he knew in detail.
He also told Xu Da about Emperor Hongwu's urgent letter and a silver note worth two hundred thousand taels.
But when Xu Da heard that the two hundred thousand silver was taken away by Zhu Bai, he was instantly shocked.
"You, ah, you, why did you give him this banknote?" he asked sternly.”
Seeing that Xu Da was angry, Yuan Chongli did not dare to sit down anymore. He quickly stood up and said aggrievedly," His Highness said that he is going to build the Imperial Residence and is short of money. I think that the reason why His Majesty allocated this money is also for King Qiong, so…"
"Aiya! Are you stupid?"
Xu Da slapped his thigh and said in despair,"Magistrate Yuan, you've been tricked by that brat!"”
When Yuan Chongli saw Xu Da like this, he was completely stunned.
Before Xu Da could explain, he heard Xu Da sigh in his heart!
"How much did you say that kid borrowed from you?”
"Four hundred thousand taels…" Yuan Chongli replied shakily.
"Oh no!"
Xu Da let out a loud cry and directly jumped up from the chair.
He immediately strode out of the door!
When they reached the door, Xu Da seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He turned his head to look at Yuan Chongli, who was stunned on the spot, and instructed,"Quickly write an urgent letter to the emperor and tell him everything! Send it over 800 miles!"
After Xu Da finished speaking, he turned around and ran in the direction of Xu Miaojin's room.
