Zhu Nao

A few days later, Zhu Nao drove towards the state capital in a mighty manner with dozens of well-trained guards sent to him by Yu Changming in a carriage.

On the other side, the state government office.

The second hall is where the yamen officials work. It is said that there should be people sitting and busy in every position during the day, but at this moment, the hall is empty, and less than [-]% of the seats are occupied.

Almost everyone was sitting lifelessly in a daze, only the man with yellowish hair was slowly sorting out a large stack of documents.This is an important official document of the state capital's household census and cultivated land statistics. When the soldiers rioted that day, in order to collect finances, they threw all the cabinets and drawers on the ground, causing the official documents to be messed up, not to mention the order. Some are missing.

When he stuffed each new official document into the stack of papers that had been arranged, he had to completely align the four corners without allowing a single mistake, so his movements were very slow.It has been several days, and he has only just sorted out a few stacks.

A strong wind passed through the hall, making people shiver.The things that the yellow-haired young man had just arranged were a little messy, he immediately put down the work in hand, and went to stack the papers neatly.

Finally someone couldn't sit still, stood up and said, "Master Qian, what should we do now?"

Qian Qing lost a lot of weight in just a few days, her cheeks were sunken, and her eyes were bruised and purple. It was obvious that she hadn't slept for several days.He said blankly: "What should I do? What should I do..."

Song Rentou is dead, and the new state shepherd has not come to take office for more than a month.That Zhao Tulang rebelled, took his bandit men back to the mountains, and ransacked the state capital before leaving.He didn't even dare to think about the miserable situation among the people.It's all messed up,

"It can't go on like this." An official said, "Someone must come out to preside over the overall situation."

No one answered his words.

A few days have passed, and the state capital is still in chaos. No one knows what to do.When Song Rentou was here, the person he relied on the most was Qian Qing.However, Qian Qing was responsible for the misfortune of the soldiers. He had lost all confidence and dared not give orders at will, and he was no longer able to convince the crowd.As for the others, no one stood up. They didn't dare and didn't know how to clean up this mess.Many officials didn't even come to the government office, just stayed at home.

The second hall became lifeless again, only the sound of people's breathing, and the sound of the yellow-haired man sorting out documents.

Suddenly, people faintly heard a sound coming from outside, and they pricked up their ears to listen.

"Why do I seem to hear... gongs and drums?"

"I heard it too."

"What's going on? Someone has a wedding?"

"Wait! I seem to hear someone calling the state-official-shang-ren-"

"!!!"

Everyone looked at each other, jumped up from their positions and ran towards the gate of the state capital.

The gate of the state capital was opened, and the officials quickly lined up on both sides.Although the team has not yet arrived, they can already clearly hear the footsteps and shouts of the guards.

"State-official-up-office-"

Along with the joyful shouts and the sound of gongs and drums, the emotions of the officials became agitated.

"Come here, come here! It should be at the corner of the street!"

"God, I thought that Zeng Zhou Mu had already encountered an accident, but he came here!"

"Bah, bah, don't say anything unlucky."

"I heard that Zeng Zhoumu is in his sixties. I hope he is in good health. Otherwise, when he sees what's going on here, he'll be so angry right after taking office."

"Ah, I'm so nervous. I don't know how Zengzhou Shepherd is doing."

"Shh, don't talk. People will be here soon!"

Soon, a large group of people appeared in their sight, and the carriage drove slowly and stopped at the gate of the state capital.

Qian Qing hurriedly led all the officials forward, bowed beside the carriage, and waited for the chief to get off the carriage.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and Junao jumped to the ground.Since Qian Qing and the others looked down at the ground, they saw a pair of feet first.These feet surprised them a little.There are more than 60 people in Zengzhou Mudu, and they walk so lightly?The bones of the body are very tough!Seems to be the one who can stand the scare.

Junao said gently: "You don't need to be too polite."

Everyone was surprised when they heard the voice.The old man's voice is so clear?How do you maintain your throat?

Zhu Nao said again: "Get up, let's go into the mansion to talk."

Only then did Qian Qing raise his head: "Zeng Zhoumu... Scared!!"

The officials were startled by Qian Qing's yell, raised their heads, and were startled a second time.This is the 60-year-old Zeng Zhoumu? !This black hair, white face, red lips, if you say that this person is sixty, then it is not well maintained, it is a elixir!

Langzhou is quite big, although not everyone recognizes Zhu Nao, but Zhu Nao can be considered a little famous person.In addition, when he does business, he often has to deal with government officials. In fact, there are several officials here who recognize him.It's just that Zhu Nao suddenly put on an official robe, and the officials didn't dare to recognize it for a while.

"You, you, you..." Qian Qing stared like copper bells, "You are Zeng Zhou Mu?!"

Zhu Nao calmed down and smiled slightly: "This is a long story. Let's go in and explain. Don't be dazed, take Benzhou Mujin to have a look." After speaking, he took the lead to go to Zhou Go to the house.

Jing Zhe next to him taught with a straight face, "Can't you understand Zhou Mu's words?" While speaking, he followed Zhu Nao's footsteps.

The mighty guard team of dozens of people also followed, and in a blink of an eye the whole brigade rushed into the state capital.

The officials were all dumbfounded.

"Isn't that Zhu Nao, a businessman from Langzhou City??? Am I right???"

"Oh, I felt familiar just now, and I remembered it when you said it! Isn't that the fool who claims to be a relative of the emperor? How did he become a state shepherd?!"

"How to do?!"

"Let's follow up first! Don't let them break into the state capital!"

The officials hurriedly chased them in, but there were many people on the other side, and they were all armed warriors.Since the Xiangbing rebellion in this state capital, there are not many officials left, and they are definitely not the opponents of this group of people.They didn't dare to go up to stop them, they could only follow eagerly.

Entering the gate of the state capital, there is a long and wide corridor in front of you, with prisons and ancestral halls on both sides.At the moment, the prison is fine, but the ancestral hall is in dilapidated condition.Just because there were tributes inside, the Xiang soldiers also went in and smashed them when they were in chaos.

While inspecting the dilapidated scene of the state capital, Zhu Nao continued to walk inside.There is a ceremonial gate in front, which can only be passed when superiors or officials of the same level come to visit, and it has just been opened by Qian Qing and others.He confidently passed through Yimen Gate, then passed Jieshifang and the platform, with officials' houses on both sides.The situation in the official residence was worse than that of the ancestral hall. After being looted by bandits, several doors and windows were crumbling, and the floor was full of bricks and tiles.

Junau shook his head.

Go forward a few steps and you will arrive at the lobby.Originally, when the new official arrived, the officials of the state capital should hold a welcoming ceremony in the lobby, but Zhu Nao came suddenly, the officials had not received the news in advance, and naturally they were not prepared, so they had time to open the ceremony gate.

After entering the lobby, Zhu Nao finally stopped, and Qian Qing and others chased after him sweating profusely.

"Zeng...Zhu..." Qian Qing didn't know what to call her, so she blurted out, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said cautiously, "Zhou, Zhou Mu, you're the first, the first time to take office, the official, the official , Can you bring the official seal?"

Zhu Nao took his time, glanced at Jing Zhe beside him, Jing Zhe took out a yellow bag and handed it to Qian Qing.

Qian Qing quickly took it, and when she opened it, she saw the official seal inside.He hurriedly picked up the official seal to check, the official seal looked left and right, it seemed real!He quickly took out the appointment documents from the cloth bag.On the official seal, there is only the official name and no personal name, but the official name and official resume will be written on the appointment document, which cannot be faked.

When he opened the appointment paperwork, he was dumbfounded again—official resume?Not at all!This appointment document is not in compliance with the standard at all!There is no doubt that this thing is artificial.

Qian Qing almost wanted to cry but had no tears.What a bad thing he caught up with.Just as the bandit was being sent away on the front foot, another impostor, Zhu Nao, appeared on the back foot.This Zhu Nao is doing business in Langzhou well, why come here to join in the fun?Want to take advantage of the fire?It's a pity that the state capital is empty now, and the other party is bringing so many people, it's almost unstoppable!

Zhu Nao had already sat on the high seat in the lobby, glanced at the wonderful expressions of everyone in the hall, and said with a smile: "Zengzhou Mu is old and frail, and unfortunately died of a serious illness on the way to take office. The news was sent back to the capital. There were no other suitable candidates, and I remembered that I happened to be in Langzhou, so I sent people to send me the official seal and documents urgently day and night, and appointed me to take up the post."

Everyone: "!!!"

Leaving aside this bizarre story, what did Zhu Nao call the emperor just now? ——Brother Huang? ? ? ?Brother Huang! ! ! !

Many people have heard of Zhu Nao's so-called royal life experience.However, the rumors are just rumors after all, Zhu Nao has not done anything as a royal relative these years, and when people ask him, he is also vague.After a long time, people will regard him as nonsense after drinking, and just laugh it off.But now, Jun Nao admitted it openly! ! !

However, even if you are really a relative of the emperor, the younger brother of the current emperor, how can there be anyone in the world who appoints a member of the royal family to be the state shepherd? !Why should he be listed as a prince and named a king? ?What a mess! !

Zhu Nao continued: "Currently the situation in central Sichuan is like fire and water. When I was ordered to perish, I feel a great responsibility. I hope that I can manage it properly and restore people's livelihood. You have worked here for many years and are more familiar with officialdom than I am. I hope that If you can help with all your heart in the future, I will not treat you badly."

The officials were still immersed in the fright just now, and they were so terrified that they couldn't listen to what he said.

Zhu Nao looked at everyone's expressions and saw that they were in a daze, it seemed that they needed some time to digest.So he said: "Okay, I'll just say this for now, and I'll talk about it slowly when I know more about the situation. Do you have any questions? If not, I will officially take office."

The officials looked at each other, but no one spoke.It's not that I don't want to ask, but I want to ask too much, but dozens of guards with swords are standing by, who dares to ask more!Do you think your life is too long?

Suddenly, a yellow-haired man stepped forward and bowed to Zhu Nao in the hall.

Zhu Nao rested his chin and said, "You have a question? Ask."

The eyes of dozens of guards all focused on Dou Ziyi at once, and the other officials did not dare to show their anger, and they all secretly broke into a cold sweat for Dou Ziyi.

Dou Ziyi was not as nervous as others, and asked slowly: "Zhuzhou Mu, why did you come?"

Suddenly there was a sound of air-conditioning all around.If it is a normal official who takes office, then the official sent by the court is justified, what is the reason?But when Dou Ziyi asked this question, it was clear that he was questioning Zhu Nao's wrong path.What do you mean why are you here?How do you ask people to answer? Could it be said that you came here to collect people's fat?Came here to extract the anointing of the people?

Zhu Nao looked at the young man in the hall and asked, "What's your name?"

"Dou Ziyi."

"Oh, Dou Ziyi. I like this question." Zhu Nao smiled, "Why am I here? I'm here for chaos. Any other questions?"

Dou Ziyi was silent for a moment, then bowed again: "No more, thank you Zhu Zhoumu." After saying that, he silently retreated to the ranks of officials.

There was a silence in the audience, and everyone had mixed feelings in their hearts, thinking about each other.

Zhu Nao waited for a while, but no one spoke, so he stopped wasting his time here.He waved his hand and said: "Turn around and sort it out. If you have anything to report to me, I will wait for you in the lobby at Yinshi tomorrow. Why are there only so many other people? Are there many people who didn't come? You can't be lazy, you send someone Go and inform the officials at all levels who should come to the government office to report and ask them to come to see the chief on time tomorrow. Those who don’t come will not come in the future. Well, let’s do this first, and I’ll go inside to have a look.”

After finishing speaking, he stood up, led Jing Zhe and other guards, and swaggered towards the depths of the mansion.

As soon as the warriors left, all the officials who had just stood on their feet collapsed one by one, leaning against the wall and sitting on the ground.A stick of incense ago, they heard how happy Xinzhou Mu was when he took office, and now they feel so desperate.

Qian Qing wanted to cry but said without tears: "The people who took advantage of the fire and looting left one group, and then came again! When will this day be the end!"

Everyone frowned and sighed.That Zengzhou Mu seemed to be more than auspicious, but let the official seal fall into the hands of profiteers.This is great, I am afraid that Langzhou will usher in a new wave of catastrophe!

Only Dou Ziyi looked calm, and said softly: "Why don't you believe what he said?"

Immediately, someone answered: "Dou Ziyi, you don't know who that Zhu Nao is, do you? He..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Dou Ziyi: "The only thing in the state capital now is a mess, what else is there for people to rob?"

Everyone was stunned and had nothing to say.

Dou Ziyi shook her head, and went to the second hall to continue sorting out the official documents.

The author has something to say: Qian Qing is not a bad person, at best he is stupid.The main person responsible for the chaos in Langzhou is Song Rentou~~

The status of the royal family has officially started to be used!Next, these officials will be dumbfounded one by one.
