Daming Junior Scholar

"Xu Shilang." Zhang Tianliang bowed down again.

After introducing Xu Wen, it's time to introduce myself. Although Li Fu was a little dizzy due to seasickness, he barely opened his eyes and waited for He Jiaan to introduce himself.

Unexpectedly, after He Jiaan introduced Xu Wen, he didn't mean to introduce himself at all. He turned his head and said, "I've been tired for so many days on the boat, I really want to take a rest first."

"Oh, don't worry, my lord, the lower officials of the government office have packed up and can move in at any time."

"That's good, Mr. He would like to thank Mr. Zhang."

Chapter 1170 Impatient

Although I know that I shouldn't easily offend Li Fu, He Jiaan is already tired of wearing a hypocritical mask to pretend to be with him. Anyway, I have already offended him to the end, so why continue to please him? It's better to continue the relationship between the two of them like this, so that I can't see it or worry about it.

Naturally, someone led the army behind them to their resting place, and He Jiaan and his party followed Zhang Tianliang's chariot to the outside of the government office. As soon as He Jiaan got off the chariot, he heard a pleasantly surprised voice: "Brother-in-law."

Then a figure quickly jumped into He Jiaan's arms.

Smelling this familiar smell, He Jia'an didn't know that this was Chen Yue'e who went to Paju to plant flowers with Xiang'er. The two of them hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, until Chen Yue'e raised her head from her arms. He Jiaan was stunned for a moment, and then said distressedly: "Yue'e, you have lost a lot of weight."

In fact, what He Jiaan wants to say is that you have been hacked a lot.

Compared with when she was in the capital, Chen Yue'e's face is obviously darker now, which is the result of frequent exposure to the sun, but when Chen Yue'e heard He Jia'an's words, she couldn't understand what he wanted to say, so she couldn't help it He glared at him, then snorted coldly: "You mean to say that I'm a lot darker."

"Uh... sure enough." He Jiaan nodded and replied truthfully.

"Hmph, I have a lot of adults, so I won't care about you like you." After Chen Yue'e rolled her eyes at He Jiaan, her eyes fell on the three women behind He Jiaan. She knew Ji Yue and Gong Yue, only Su Hongxiu Although she knew her, she was not at home when Su Hongxiu came in.

Although this matter was already mentioned in her sister's letter, Chen Yue'e always felt that Su Hongxiu was too scheming, and it might have a bad impact on the atmosphere at home.

I want to think about it, but I can't see anything for the time being. After letting He Jiaan go, Chen Yue'e finally moved in front of a few girls, looking happy, not knowing what they were talking about.

Until then, Xiang'er, who had been standing behind Chen Yue'e, came slowly over, bowed in front of He Jia'an, and said with a slightly nervous expression on her face, "Xiang'er has met Master He."

"En." He Jiaan nodded. Although he had a lot of questions to ask her, but now was not the best time to ask questions. After talking to Zhang Tianliang, a group of people finally entered the government office in Pazhou.

It is almost as I imagined, the inside of this mansion is really beautiful, it doesn't look like a mansion, it looks more like a garden, Zhang Tianliang introduced the various places of this mansion to He Jiaan while walking, After reaching a courtyard, He Jia'an unexpectedly saw Zhang Tianliang's family members.

You know, people who can bring friends to see their family members these days have a deep friendship. I just met Zhang Tianliang and was led here by him. Naturally, He Jiaan seemed a little surprised. What should I say, but Zhang Tianliang smiled and said: "My lord, don't be offended. I don't have any other intentions to lead my lord here. It's just that after handing over to my lord, I'm going to leave Paju immediately. Go to the Fujian government office, as for what else you don't know about this government office, you can ask your wife, she is already very familiar with this place these days."

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Tianliang finished speaking, Chen Yue'e walked over from behind, and said generously: "Yue'e is in Paju and has been taken care of by Mr. Zhang. Yue'e is very grateful. If you have the opportunity to go to the capital, you must go." It’s just a guest at home.”

"Don't worry, Mrs. He, she will definitely go if she has the opportunity to be dismissed."

The separation came so suddenly that even He Jiaan didn't expect Zhang Tianliang to leave in such a hurry. Seeing the Zhang family's carriage fleeing away, He Jiaan couldn't help asking: "Yue'e, why is this lord?" In such a hurry?"

"Is this still in a hurry?" Chen Yue'e couldn't help but give him a blank look, and then said, "Do you know where Mr. Zhang will go after he handed over the prefect of Pazhou to you?"

"This... I heard it's Fujian." He Jia'an was not clear either.

"It is indeed Fujian, but when he went to Fujian, he was promoted to three levels in a row. Originally, the position in Fujian was vacant for him, but who knows that he waited for you to not arrive, and waited for you to arrive. In the end, I heard that you disappeared as a whole. Now, do you know how sad and disappointed Mr. Zhang was when the news reached Paju? He went to the temple to pray for you almost every day, and now his wish has finally come true. When you come back, he will naturally go to Fujian to take office, otherwise If your position is taken by someone else, wouldn't it be very unfair."

After hearing so much, He Jiaan finally understood one thing. It wasn't that Zhang Tianliang was unhappy looking at him, nor that he hated this land so much, but that there was a better place waiting for him in the distance, so he didn't Dealing with himself patiently, after throwing things to himself, he rushed to his post in a hurry.

Now that he has left, this mansion is considered his own. Originally, He Jiaan wanted Xu Wen to live here too, but in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't live here at all. He found an inn in the city and lived there. After I settled down, after a few days to confirm the plan for building the fort, I will leave Paju and choose a location to build the fort along the coastline of Daming.

Without Zhang Tianliang's family, this government office is quite empty. Some of the original maids have been dismissed by Zhang Tianliang, but the new ones have not yet arrived. They are all relying on a few people to bring them from the capital. These maids are very busy cleaning up.

The servants were busy, but He Jiaan was very leisurely. After entering the backyard, he couldn't wait to find Xiang'er and ask about the perfume.

Probably expected that He Jiaan would ask about this matter, Xiang'er reached out and took out a small porcelain bottle from her bosom, handed it to He Jiaan, and said like offering a treasure: "Master, smell it, this is the bottle just now. Extracted essence."

In Xiang'er's eyes, what is contained in this bottle is the so-called essence, but in He Jiaan's eyes, this bottle of essence is more precious than anything in the world.

Carefully opened the bottle, poured a drop of the essence inside on the back of his hand, and before he could get close to smell it, a strong fragrance entered his nose.

After slowly feeling the aroma in the bottle, He Jiaan couldn't help but nodded, and said excitedly: "Yes, this is what I want, it's just..."

Xiang'er was very happy when she heard He Jiaan's words, but when the conversation changed, she was taken aback, and asked in puzzlement: "My lord, is there something wrong with this fragrance?"

"There is no problem at all." He Jiaan shook his head, and continued, "It's just that the concentration of this essence is too high. We should think of a way to make the smell lighter."

He Jia'an had already mentioned this issue when he left Beijing, but in Xiang'er's view, the stronger the smell, the better, and the weaker it would not reflect the benefits of the essence.

But since it was Mr. He who made the request again, he could only take out another small bottle from his arms, and said helplessly, "My lord, here is the essence diluted ten times, come and smell it."

After He Jiaan took it, he tapped it on the back of his hand according to the same steps, and when he went to smell it again, he finally nodded in satisfaction: "I want this one."

Chapter 1171

The first day in Paju was probably the most relaxing day for He Jiaan in Paju.

Early the next morning, I was disturbed by the shouts outside, rubbed my eyes, put on my clothes, and He Jiaan walked out with square steps. As soon as I left the room, I saw Tang Lin sweating profusely. Standing in the yard, when he saw He Jiaan coming out, he immediately greeted him, and said anxiously: "My lord, hurry up and take a look, the outside of the government office is surrounded by ordinary people."

"Ah?" He Jiaan couldn't help being taken aback, and asked in puzzlement, "Why?"

Tang Lin said anxiously: "I heard that Master Zhang expropriated the land a few days ago and promised to compensate the common people. As a result, he is gone now, and there is no news of the compensation. These common people were afraid that the compensation would be in vain, so they ran to the government office. The gate of the yamen is here."

Well?Why does this passage sound so familiar?

Just as He Jia'an was stupefied, Chen Yue'e from the room came out gracefully, and she was a little surprised when she heard Tang Lin's words, and said, "But Master Zhang said that the compensation has been paid, why are there still people making trouble?"

"Master Zhang really said that?" He Jia'an was also confused, but it is not difficult to find out about this matter. Although Zhang Tianliang is gone, these officials in the government office are still there. If you find them and ask them clearly, you will know.

On the first day I took office, I encountered such a troublesome incident. He Jiaan felt a little unlucky in his heart, but he still hid his thoughts well in his heart, and led Chen Yue'e and Tang Lin to the gate of the government office , when he was still some distance away from the gate, he suddenly heard someone shouting outside: "What are you doing? Do you know where this is? Hurry up and go home, whoever dares to stay here, don't Blame me for not being recognized by Lao Niu's relatives."

"Master Niu, that's not what you told us back then, you said..."

Before the voice finished speaking, He Jia'an inside heard a scream of 'Ah', and then heard the voice just said harshly: "What the hell, you don't have to drink a toast, I will let you drink it today!" You have a taste of the eighteen penal laws in the torture chamber."

Although He Jia'an didn't know exactly what happened just now, he could guess what was going on outside by hearing the screams. He immediately turned out from the corner and walked along the gate of the mansion, just in time to see some people dressed in The yamen servant in soap clothes dragged a person into the yamen, and the two of them happened to meet each other.

When the several yamen servants saw the person coming from the opposite side, they raised their heads and glanced at the same time. When they saw that the person who came out was He Jiaan, their expressions were all stunned, and they stopped immediately, and looked at each other. I don't know what to do now.

"Why don't you leave? What are you doing in a daze?" The voice from outside reached He Jiaan's ears again, and then he saw a 'water tank' coming in from outside.

Why is it called a water tank?

It was because the person who came in was not tall, with a thick face and a thick waist, which was almost as big as the water tank in the yard.

As soon as the water tank came in, he naturally saw He Jia'an, the expression on his face was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled awkwardly: "Hey, isn't this Mr. He, how can you be alarmed by such a small matter, You have been on the road for so long, you should go back and rest first, and these troublesome subordinates will take care of it for you."

After hearing this man's words, He Jia'an's eyes first fell on the man dragged by those yamen servants. He saw that the left side of the man's face was already swollen and his mouth was blocked with a rag. She looked at herself pleadingly, as if she wanted to say something.

He Jiaan glanced at him, then at the water tank, and asked indifferently, "Who... are you?"
