The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general
Chapter 44 Explain the pros and cons
"Mr. Gu can't help with this, but that doesn't mean that Old Master Gu can't help him get the county magistrate to take the position of county chancellor." Lin Qiuer suddenly said.
Song Congyuan heard Lin Qiuer's words clearly, and his mood became even more depressed. He said dejectedly, "But I can't see General Gu either. What's the point of knowing what he can do?"
"Of course it's difficult for you to see Old Master Gu. I think among the people holding official positions in Lingao County, there are not many who can see Old Master Gu whenever they want. What's more, you are just an idle commoner." Lin Qiuer pointed out the truth.
With every word she said, Song Congyuan's head drooped further.
"Then Miss Lin, what do you think we should do?" Song Congyuan threw himself into the chair, not caring about his image in front of his idol.
His father finally agreed that if he could accomplish this task, he would let him follow the caravan to the provincial capital to broaden his horizons.
It seems that I can no longer eat the delicious food in this city, I can no longer appreciate the girls in this city, and I can no longer hear the latest gossip in this city.
"When a talented person comes out of retirement, there are still people who come to him three times to ask for help. You people who are seeking official positions don't take the position of county magistrate seriously at all." Lin Qiuer did not directly answer Song Congyuan's words, but said this.
It depends on whether he can hear the hint in my words. I have already said it so clearly. If someone still can't understand, then he should get out as soon as possible.
Sure enough, although Song Congyuan was a stupid son of a landlord who had never been to the provincial capital since childhood, he was not really stupid and immediately understood the meaning of Lin Qiuer's words.
This clearly meant that even if General Gu was asked to write a letter to recommend the second uncle, it would not be possible for a boy like him with no status to speak up.
How can this be accomplished? Of course, he had his second uncle come to General Gu's house and ask him for help.
"Miss Lin, I will always remember your advice. I will go back and ask my second uncle to visit General Gu." After Song Congyuan said this, he saw Gu Anqing sitting next to him looking at him with a smile, and he immediately jumped up from his chair and stood up.
"General Gu, I am sorry to bother you today. I have something to do, so I will take my leave now."
After that, he bowed to Lin Qiu'er and Lin Nanye again, "Miss Lin, Brother Lin, I'm really sorry that we can't go to Wanfulou today. Let's make another appointment to visit the county together, and then I'll invite you to have dinner at Wanfulou."
Lin Nanye waved his hand generously, indicating that he didn't care, "Let's go to Wanfulou for dinner together next time if we have a chance. Mr. Song, go and do what you have to do first."
"Mr. Song, there is one more thing I want to ask you. Now that the county magistrate has been killed, I wonder if Bai Yicheng at the post station is doing okay?" Lin Qiu'er remembered the hateful expression on Song Congyuan's face when he mentioned Bai Yicheng yesterday. She also knew that the other Yicheng also had the surname Song, so she was curious to know whether the county magistrate's death would have any impact on him.
When Song Congyuan heard this, his expression instantly changed from depressed to proud. He said proudly, "If Miss Lin hadn't asked, I would have almost forgotten about this matter. This time, I also want to thank Miss Lin for informing me in time yesterday that Bai Yicheng's daughter Bai Birou had forcibly snatched someone else's fiancé.
The post station has exempted Bai Birou from the affairs of the fiancé that was robbed. Alas, it is also pitiful for the girl whose fiancé was robbed by Bai Birou. I heard that she is also surnamed Lin like you, Miss Lin. "
Lin Qiuer couldn't help but smile, and finally gave up trying to hide it and burst into laughter.
Song Congyuan looked at Lin Qiuer in confusion, then looked at Lin Nanye inquiringly.
Lin Nanye just smiled and didn't answer.
Only Changqing, after hearing that the girl whose fiancée was snatched away by the daughter of the postmaster was named Lin, remembered that when the servant took Lin Nanye to inquire about the news, he had beaten someone near the post station.
The more he thought about it, the more surprised he became. He looked at Lin Qiu'er and asked in a lost voice, "Miss Lin, you are not the poor person whose fiancé was robbed, are you?"
"What did you say?" Song Congyuan looked at Changqing in disbelief, and mechanically turned his head to look at Lin Qiuer who was laughing. "Miss Lin, is this true? Bai Yicheng's daughter stole your fiancé?"
If the person whose fiancé was snatched away was really Miss Lin, then Miss Lin told him about it in the teahouse as gossip, and he went back and told his second brother, and then his second brother dealt with Bai Yichen's future son-in-law.
He just said that the girl whose fiancé was robbed was pitiful, but the fact is that this poor girl plotted against him and now she has her revenge. The poor one is Song Congyuan.
Lin Qiu'er looked at Song Congyuan's pitiful face, and couldn't help but cough a few times, trying her best to control her excitement. "Mr. Song, there is no need to say polite words between good friends."
She pretended to wipe her tears with her sleeves and added, "I am the poor Miss Lin who was abandoned by her fiancé. Hahahaha~"
She couldn't pretend any longer, she was in such a good mood.
Song Congyuan murmured, "Why does Miss Lin look so happy?"
The servant listened to the whole process and tugged at Song Congyuan's sleeve, reminding him, "Master, I think Miss Lin is not pitiful, but scary. Let's go back to the mansion quickly. Aren't you going to ask the second master to come and pay a visit to General Gu?"
"Oh oh oh, yes, yes. We must ask Second Uncle to come over soon, this matter should be done as soon as possible. Everyone, I'm leaving now, and see you next time." After Song Congyuan finished speaking, he hurriedly bowed to everyone, then immediately ran away.
Seeing that Song Congyuan had disappeared, Gu Anqing waited for Lin Qiu'er to stop laughing before asking, "Why did Miss Lin remind Mr. Song to ask County Magistrate Song to come to see Grandpa?"
Gu Anqing had been silent just now. Lin Qiuer guessed that he didn't want Old Master Gu to be involved in the disputes between the civil and military generals.
But in the current complex environment of Lingao County, one more help is always better than one more hostile force.
So, after careful consideration, Lin Qiuer began to analyze in detail to Gu Anqing the pros and cons of recommending County Cheng Song as the county magistrate.
"Mr. Gu, you should understand that although General Gu cannot directly interfere with the appointment of civil servants, as the most senior person in Lingao County, he should be given face by the imperial city if he recommends a small county magistrate in the frontier." Lin Qiuer explained in an orderly manner.
"Now that Lingao County has suddenly lost its county magistrate, if we want to transfer personnel from other places to fill this vacancy, now is not the normal season for official transfers. To complete this task, not only is it time-consuming and laborious, but the most worrying thing is that we don't know when a new county magistrate will be sent."
Lin Qiuer paused for a moment and continued, "As Lingao is an important frontier city, if the county magistrate is not in office for a day, there will be an additional factor of instability. Apart from your Gu family, the one who most hopes for the long-term stability of Lingao County must be the local big family Song family. After all, their family roots are here."
"Therefore, for the stability of the border and for the stability of Nanyue Kingdom, it is a good idea to recommend someone from the local big family, the Song family, as the county magistrate." After Lin Qiuer finished speaking, she looked at Gu Anqing quietly, waiting for his reaction.
Gu Anqing listened to Lin Qiu'er's explanation step by step, and his heart was filled with surprise. He had never thought that this girl, who grew up in the village, was so proficient in the national situation and the balance of power.
She is really a woman who cannot be compared to a man.
