Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 206
When it was getting late, Ying Cai, Lu Er and others served Hu Qian and Xu Yuanfang to drink in the main hall.

Xu Yuanfang raised his head to look out from time to time, his mind was not on the food and wine at all.

Hu Qian naturally understood, and didn't say much, just waited quietly.

After a while, Erzhu came in and said that Hu Jiu was back.

Xu Yuanfang immediately stood up, walked out the door in two or three steps, and saw a carriage parked outside.

At this time, Hu Qian had already repelled everyone, Xu Yuanfang stepped forward quickly, and when he reached the front, he stopped again, his hands trembling.

At this time, Xu Zhenhu's voice suddenly came from inside the car.

"The sky is falling, the ground is sinking, and the little flower dog is gone..."

Xu Yuanfang couldn't hold back anymore, he opened the curtain abruptly, only took one look, and burst into tears.

"Zhenhu...it's Daddy...Daddy is here..."

Xu Zhenhu was stupid, so naturally he would not pay attention.

Xu Yuanfang touched his face, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

Hu Qian said: "There is a nightmare in Zhenhu's body, and it has been sealed by me now. If it is forcibly removed, he may never recover."

Xu Yuanfang nodded and hesitated, "How sure are you?"

"Do your best."

Xu Yuanfang put down the curtain hesitantly, "I should be content to see you again."

After speaking, he bowed deeply to Hu Qian again, "Respect, thank you very much this time."

Hu Qian said: "Whatever uncle said, this is what I should do."

"I won't stay in Guobei County, I have to leave tonight."

"Will this be too eye-catching?"

"The higher-ups' eyes are all on the tax bank, so there should be no problem."

Hu Qian nodded without staying any longer, and sent Xu Yuanfang out of the door.

"I'll leave this to you."

"Uncle, don't worry."

Xu Yuanfang glanced into the courtyard again, then got on his horse, and a group of people patted their horses out of the city.

Hu Qian ordered Hu Jiu to hide Xu Zhenhu in the house, and let Erzhu take good care of him, so as not to cause suspicion when he came in and out.

At night, Hu Qian still went to Shen Yuzhen's room. Although they could not share the same room, both of them wore small clothes, and they were very intimate.

Hu Qian was leaning on the head of the bed, Shen Yuzhen's pink bellyband was pressed against his chest, and the white and greasy jade back was so smooth that Hu Qian couldn't put it down.

"Should we talk to daddy so that he won't worry about it?"

"I don't want it for the time being. The less people who know about this matter, the better. Even if Dad knows, it won't be of much help."

Shen Yuzhen raised her head suddenly, "Actually, thinking about it, it's better for my husband not to be the county magistrate, so that I can spend more time with my concubine."

Hu Qian caressed her hair and said, "Okay, Mr. Xiang will resign tomorrow, let's go back to Jinling to live a happy life."

"That can't be done.

It would be too wasteful for Xianggong, such a talented person, to just stay at home. "

Hu Qian smiled and said, "Why are you so vacillating?"

"The concubine is just talking, if you really keep Mr. Qiang by your side, not to mention far away, it will be a disaster for the people of Guobei County.

If Xianggong hadn't come, what would this Guobei County be like? "

Hu Qian nodded, "By the way, when the children of Lianlian and Huanniang grow up, I want to hire a husband for them to teach them how to read and write."

"I'm afraid it's against the law of etiquette."

"Just invite a female gentleman. Of course, if you and Ningshuang are willing, you can also be their teachers.

It's just that you are close relatives after all, and you will never be as strict as a real teacher when teaching. "

Shen Yuzhen nodded, "In this case, it's up to the concubine to find someone."

A few days later, the tax bank of Guobei County has been minted.

According to the chief secretary's decree, Hu Qian reported the matter to Jinling, and within a day, twelve Jinwu guards wearing bright armor and riding tall horses arrived.

The leader was named Huo Zheng, and he did not salute Hu Qian when he saw him.

Hu Qian ignored it, but asked the guards of the Tiandu Silver Building to move out all the silver ingots.

After Huo Zheng finished counting, the two sides handed over the procedures, and led the crowd to send them out of the city.

It stands to reason that the silver will be sent to Jinling after that, and then it will be shipped uniformly, escorted by Jinwu Guards to Liangjing, and then take the waterway to the capital.

However, these problems have nothing to do with Hu Qian. Now that the formalities have been paid and the tax bank has left the city, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, in less than three days, news suddenly came from Xu Yuanfang, saying that according to Fang Ting's letter to Hu Qian, he said that he was incapable of governing and killed Governor Ma, and that he was greedy for meritorious deeds, causing Cao Shangfei to escape. , He even said that he would embezzle taxes, silver, fire and waste, and fill his own pockets.

Several crimes were clearly written. It is said that Fang Ting himself was in tears and heartbroken when he wrote the book, as if Hu Qian was some kind of moth in the court.

If it is not removed, the country will perish.

The emperor ignored it at first, and even gave Fang Ting a severe reprimand.

But Fang Ting didn't know what kind of evil it was, and he joined other officials to write the book. Not only did the local officials respond, but even some people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple supported it.

The emperor was helpless, so he passed down an imperial decree, asking Hu Qian to suspend his post and wait for participation, and the county magistrate He Lei temporarily took the post of county magistrate.

When the news spread to Guobei County, the people took to the streets to petition, and many people went to the gate of the county government to sit quietly, demanding that the court restore Hu Qian to his post.

He Lei couldn't drive him away, he couldn't say anything, so he had to ask Hu Qian to come forward.

Hu Qian didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but he couldn't bear it if someone was killed, so he went to the gate of the county government to persuade him for a while.

In words, he only said that he was just waiting to participate, and after the authenticity was found out, he would take up his post again.

The people then left.

Back home, Hai Daliang, the inspection department Ying Xiaoyou and others had been waiting for a long time.

Several people wanted to comfort Hu Qian at first, but seeing Hu Qian's indifferent expression, they were a little relieved.

Hu Qian himself didn't care much, and after seeing off the guests, he went to Lu Huan's wife's room.

Lu Huanniang had already recovered at this time, but she still couldn't leave the house, she said softly: "Xing'er, serve Xianggong some tea."

Hu Qian beckoned her to sit beside him, "Have you thought about the child's name?"

"I thought about it twice, but I don't know what Xianggong means."

"You talk first and listen."

"My concubine thinks, one is the bamboo sound, which is taken from the sound of silk and bamboo; the other is to take it according to the name of Lianlian, which is called Shuangshuang, which means to be a pair."

Hu Qian said: "Since you like the temperament, you can choose according to your own ideas, but the bamboo sound is too high, I'm afraid it will not be good for you, so let's make a compromise and choose a sound."

Lu Huanniang read it twice, she liked it more and more, and said softly: "Thank you, Mr.

Then she hugged the child and teased, "Yinyin, come and thank your father."

The little guy is only ten days old, he still can't turn his eyes, he can only look straight ahead, but he seems to like it very much when he heard Lu Huanniang's words, he yelled "ahhh" twice.

At night, Jiao Na came back suddenly, saw Hu Qian, and immediately said, "I found a solution."
