How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 169
[169. Chapter 169 Dayou is dead]
“Why are you looking at me like this?”
Shen Zishuang touched the aching back of her head, looking a little confused.
Suddenly, she remembered something, bit her lip lightly, and asked anxiously: “Um…my sister didn’t do anything particularly scary, right?”
“No.”
Lady Ji smiled and shook her head: “Miss Shen is very sensible. For a while, she helped Mr. Lu handle the affairs and kept the Zhenfu Department in good order. “
Huh. That’s good.”
When Shen Zishuang heard this, her face became uneasy and her eyes were as crooked as the moon.
“But…”
At this moment, Lu Gan suddenly said coldly: “Your sister has been playing cards with Lady Ji and Ruoshui these days. She lost a total of 365 notes, and the bottom bet was one copper coin. , three hundred and sixty-five times… Wait, let me do the math.”
As he said that, he conjured up a small palm-sized abacus from nowhere and clicked it randomly.
Finally, Lu Gan put down his abacus and snorted coldly: “After all, you have lost a total of one hundred and ninety-nine thousand, seven hundred taels of gold. In other words, with your monthly salary of thirty-two taels of silver, you have to pay back five Thousands of years!”
“What!”
Shen Zishuang was dumbfounded and suddenly tore the note off her face with a look of despair.
There was a pop.
Ruoshui laughed out loud and comforted her softly: “Miss Shen, Mr. Lu is lying to you! What he calculated just now is completely wrong. You just owe us a few taels of silver.”
“Really? Sister Ji, Is what Ruoshui said true?”
When Shen Zishuang heard this, her eyes widened as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.
“Yes, Master Lu is just lying to you.”
Lady Ji covered her mouth and chuckled.
“Huh!”
Shen Zishuang breathed a sigh of relief, then gave Lu Gan a hard look, and then threw herself into Fairy Lan Ji’s arms with an aggrieved look on her face.
It seems to be the real Shen Zishuang.
Lu Gan put away his abacus, turned to Madam Ji, and said to Ruoshui, “Let’s pack it up. We’ll move to the county later.”
“Ah? Why?”
When Shen Zishuang heard this, she quickly raised her head and asked.
“Of course Mr. Lu has been promoted.” Ruoshui smiled lightly and saluted with his hands folded: “My little lady, congratulations to Mr. Lu for being promoted to chief arrester of Qingyang County.”
“Huh? How did you know?” Lu Ganxiao asked.
“Master Li Feng from the county has been transferred to Dongting County. The vacant position will naturally be given to you, Master Lu.” Ruoshui said with a smile.
“Congratulations, Mr. Lu, I’ll go pack my things.”
Madam Ji was also happy for Lu Qian, bowed and saluted, and went to pack her luggage briskly.
“The chief arrester? The eighth grade suddenly became the fourth grade?!”
At this time, Shen Zishuang’s eyes widened and she was shocked.
“That’s right. Why don’t you please me obediently? I will give you a salary increase in the future.”
Lu Qian crossed his arms and glanced at her sideways.
When Shen Zishuang heard this, she immediately showed a flattering smile like a puppy: “Hehe, Mr. Lu is wise and martial, unparalleled in the world, elegant, wise and courageous… Well, can you give me a salary increase now?”
On the side, Fairy Lan Ji was speechless. Well, I turned my head and couldn’t even see it.
This guy’s IQ hasn’t improved, but his face has become much thicker!
Lu Gan shook his head and was too lazy to pay attention to her. He turned around and went to the backyard to see the little tiger.
After only ten days of absence, the little tiger has turned into a big tiger, half as tall as a man and very powerful.
Lady Ji’s little daughter Yaoyao was riding on its neck, grabbing the fur on the tiger’s back and giggling.
As soon as she saw Lu Gan, her clear eyes lit up, she patted the tiger on the back and said in a sweet voice, “Big cat, be good! Go to Mr. Lu’s place! Big cat?”
However, the tiger purred and crawled down towards Lu Gan. , not daring to move at all.
There was a trace of fear and fear in the golden tiger eyes.
“Eh? Why doesn’t the big cat leave?”
Yaoyao bit her little finger with confusion on her face.
Seeing this scene, Lu Gan raised his eyebrows and thought of the dragon teeth he had refined: “Is this the legendary bloodline suppression?”
Then he waved to the big tiger.
Only then did the big tiger dare to stand up and come over with tiger strides. His mighty tiger face showed a very humane and well-behaved look, and he licked his outstretched hand affectionately.
Lu Gan touched the big tiger’s head, pinched Yaoyao’s smooth face, turned around and walked out of the house.
An hour later, Lu Gan finished his explanation and walked out of the Zhenfusi gate with the big tiger and the big yellow dog. He couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.
I saw only the long street of Zhenfusi, with people standing on both sides.
“Congratulations to Mr. Lu for his promotion to the Chief Executive Officer of Qingyang County!”
A familiar voice rang out from the crowd, it was Zhang Jinlai.
Before the words could be finished, voices sounded out one after another:
“The common people congratulate Mr. Lu on his promotion to Chief Catcher and a bright future!”
“Master Lu, come home often. Shashui is your home.”
“It’s great now that Master Lu is in charge of Qingyang County. Those gangsters and desperadoes don’t dare to be arrogant anymore, and we can sleep peacefully.” “
…
When Lu Gan saw this, he turned to look at Cao Dun.
“It was a subordinate who neglected his duty and ‘inadvertently’ leaked the information about your promotion. Please punish me!” Cao Dun stepped forward and handed over his hands to plead guilty, feeling extremely guilty and self-blame.
“Yeah! As long as you realize your mistake, I will deduct your salary for this month!” Lu Gan nodded and said calmly.
“Thank you, sir!”
Cao Dun looked happy and bowed his hands in great gratitude.
At this time, Lu Gan walked to the gate of the Zhenfu Division, slightly cupped his hands, and said solemnly: “Dear fellow villagers and elders, I have received much care from you in the past few years. Now, I, Lu Gan, have received the favor of the emperor and been promoted to the position of chief arrester. I, Lu Gan, I can assure you that the twenty-eight counties of Qingyang County will definitely live a prosperous life, live in peace and joy!”
As soon as these words came out, the people cheered and expressed their thanks.
Lu Gan jumped onto Mo Lin’s horse and gave the order, and the convoy moved slowly.
Under the admiration and grateful gazes of the people on both sides, Lu Gan returned the favor one by one.
Nine days above, under the sun, a large eagle kept circling, emitting an eagle cry that penetrated the clouds and cracked the rocks.
Halfway through, a middle-aged man in yellow suddenly walked out of the crowd, bowed his hands, and said with great gratitude: “Zhang Jinlai, a common man, together with 360 merchants, gave Mr. Lu a Wanmin umbrella! Thank you Mr. Lu for such a huge umbrella. Generally, we are protecting the people of Shashui County!”
After that, he held out a huge colorful umbrella with long cloth strips hanging on it.
On the strip of cloth is a personal name.
As the voice fell, a handful of Wanmin umbrellas stretched out from the crowd and stood upright along the long street, like two rows of colorful trees, swaying gently in the wind.
Among these Umbrellas, there are also virtuous plaques engraved with ‘Sin Buster’, ‘Master Qingtian’ and ‘Benefiting the People’.
Seeing this scene, Cao Dun was also secretly surprised.
He could swear to God that except for a few plaques and the Ten Thousand People Umbrella, everything else was really not arranged by him. Thinking about it this way, wouldn’t it be all done spontaneously by the people?
Lu Qian could only bow his hands slightly to express his gratitude.
Surrounded by crowds, the motorcade moved forward. Looking down from a high altitude, the flow of people moved forward like a giant dragon.
Lu Gan, who was surrounded by people, was the heart of the dragon.
When they walked through a street, a white-haired old man basking in the sun withdrew his gaze and exclaimed: “Such a scene, Old Liu, do you remember how many years it has been since we didn’t show up?” “I
do
n’t remember.”
The old man shook his head.
This kind of support from all the people seems to have never happened in more than a hundred years.
Now, it appears in an eighteen-year-old boy.
“Dayou is dead, Daxuan is in full swing!”
The two white-haired old men looked at each other and sighed together, and the trace of nostalgia for Dayou in their hearts was completely annihilated.
…
Sent all the way out of the long pavilion five miles outside the city, Lu Gan boarded the Iron Bull Speedster amidst the farewells of all the people.
Boom, boom, boom.
The Iron Bull Speedster started running wildly, moving quickly through the ice and snow in the sky and the earth.
Su Yingluo, Li Sanhua, A Niu, and Yaoyao had never ridden on the Iron Bull Speeder. They were lying next to the window, their four little heads passing by in a row, their big eyes wide open, looking at the passing beauty with great curiosity.
Lu Gan was in another carriage, staying with Xing Laodao.
“This is what Xuanhuang Zong Yunluo gave to you.”
Xing Laodao handed a jade bamboo slip to Lu Qian, and said with a lingering fear on his face: “This jade slip is a painting, which retains the will of the Martial Saint. I will take a look. My heart almost burst.”
Lu Qian took it and carefully unfolded it, and saw a map of the human body’s meridians.
He recognized it at a glance as the second level of Jiuchichan’s Immortal Golden Body Strength! The whole person can’t help but be immersed in it.
By the time he sensed that the Tieniu Speeding Car had stopped, he had already arrived at the Shili Changting Pavilion outside the county city.
Looking up, he saw Zheng Cha leading Qi Tianxia and Miao Gaoshuo waiting at the platform.
Lu Gan put away the jade slips and stepped off the iron cow speed car.
As usual, there was another round of congratulations and greetings.
“Mr. Lu, congratulations. I didn’t expect that in just one year, you would be the chief catcher. It’s so fast! I’ll go to my house later and give you a clean break! My daughter is celebrating the New Year. I’m always looking forward to your coming!”
Zheng Cha laughed and congratulated.
That cardamom girl who is twelve or thirteen years old?
Lu Qian immediately agreed: “Okay! I will go to the Zhenfu Division to take up my post first, and then I will go to Mr. Zheng’s house immediately!”
However, when he left the platform and saw the carriage coming to pick him up, Lu Qian frowned.
This is not a carriage specially designed for the Zhenfu Division!
Not only did the three people who came to pick him up as the chief arrester, Zheng Cha, actually use a special carriage that was not the Zhenfu Division’s?
Obviously, he was targeted!
There are still two updates to get twelve points.
