"head."

"Brother Cao, you are here."

"Look, my head's eyes were darkened. I wonder which girl in Cuiyilou was favored by her head last night."

"What's enough in a while? At least two or three will be needed."

"Hahaha......"

Several yamen runners who have good relationships on weekdays became funny and made fun of Cao Hu one by one. Cao Hu was not angry and said with a smile: "You guys, don't fight for three days, and go to the house to remove the tiles. If you want to go to Cuiyilou, just say it, that's my account."

"That's great. Everyone says that the leader is the biggest, right."

"That's right, follow us and you won't have to worry about eating and drinking."

"Yes, yes, that's it. I'm tired. I'll make you a cup of tea."

The subordinates were so happy that they shouted praises to Cao Hu. At that time, Cao Hu was in a very good mood. On the one hand, he could win people's hearts and improve his prestige, and on the other hand, he could also demonstrate his status. Besides, he was the captain, and the public security in the entire Jiangyou County was under his control. Even if he was treating, there were many sections and many links were free. Although there were many people invited, the real expenses were not large, and sometimes it could be free. Besides, there were many additional items recently, so Cao Hu didn't care about this expense.

Cao Hu, who was born in grassroots, deeply understood that talents are powerful. Although the status of the third class fast-service service is not high, the county magistrate is not as good as the current management. They need to execute it in all aspects. It can be said that the power is great and the loyalty of his subordinates is very important. Cao Hu often gives small favors to his subordinates and builds his power like a solid piece. After all, he also imitates Chen Gui, but Chen Gui's target is the entire county government.

"Hey, where is Zhang Chunnian and Li Dong? These two boys dare to absent from work?" Cao Hu's sharp-eyed eyes, and he could see at a glance that there were two right-hand assistants missing in the crowd, and he asked quickly.

When they see themselves coming, these two guys are the most attentive, so Cao Hu immediately noticed that these two people are not there.

"Boss, they are on a business trip." A thin yamen runner whispered.

"Oh, what business is going on? Why don't I know?" According to the rules, I am the headmaster. I will register my own business if I have anything, and then allocate personnel. Why can't I receive any wind at all, so I go out to work? Cao Hu's face was a little unhappy.

Without rules, no order can be achieved. In ancient times, things were reported step by step. If you go beyond the level, you would not be favored, and you would be regarded as an ungrateful person and a bold and arrogant person. After all, in the eyes of many people, this is considered a small report. If you report your superiors, those who do not have such subordinates like this will not report your superiors, and you will also give the impression that your superiors are not doing their own affairs and are incompetent in the officialdom. This is particularly taboo in the officialdom.

Although the two of them were Cao Hu's confidants, Cao Hu was not happy if he broke the rules.

The quick-talking detective Niu Er hesitated for a moment and whispered: "This was asked by the county magistrate to go. It is said that it was to discuss the celebration of the Lantern Festival. Tsk, they picked up a fat man."

"Yes, but recently the county magistrate seemed to look at them differently and handed them over many errands. Oh, by the way, I heard that they had arranged errands for their relatives in the Yingbin Building, and this time they handed over the fat man from the Shangyuan Festival to them. They were really lucky." The yamen runner nicknamed Feidong said with some jealousy.

"Didn't this errand be handed over to the head in previous years?" The person who spoke was Yang Jiu, who had just been a constable for a while.

Cao Hu smiled and said, "It's okay. The county magistrate knows that I'm too busy recently, so I didn't make any arrangements. Besides, before the New Year, I made a small profit. It's good. I have to let my brothers get some money. Okay, let's go to work. Don't go home after the payroll. Change into casual clothes. Let's go to Cuiyilou and have fun. Let's talk first. After passing this village, there is only this shop. If you don't go there, you won't make up for it later."

"The head treats you, you have to go whatever you say."

"That's right, you have to have time if you don't have time."

"If your legs are broken, you have to crawl away."

"My brother-in-law invited me to dinner, but I pushed me. My uncle can't kiss you as much as my first kiss."

Everyone dispersed while responding. After everyone dispersed, Cao Hu's face immediately sank and his fists were pinched.

The Lantern Festival is a traditional festival of the Chinese nation. On the festival night when the lunar calendar begins and the earth rejuvenates, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the colorful lanterns on the ground, and thousands of people watch lanterns, guess riddles, eat Lantern Festival, and reunite with their families. They are happy and lively. In order to show the spirit of having fun with the people, the government will organize lantern festivals of all sizes for the people to enjoy and guess riddles. Young men and women will take this opportunity to find their other half. Although it means that the dynasty is not as prosperous as the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, especially in the disaster year, the scale is shrinking, but it is still very important in remote areas. For example, Jiangyou County, every New Year, the county government convenes the township officials of each township, and ask them to select exquisite lanterns to participate in the competition in the county government, and then donate how many portions of money to be used for rewards, making it lively.

During the Chinese New Year, if you are in charge of the official position, you should naturally not be neglected. You must not lose money for running errands, especially if you have not celebrated the Chinese New Year, and the red envelopes have to be richer. This is a fat man. In previous years, I was handed over to Cao Hu. Unexpectedly, if I gave it to my subordinates without knowing it, I would bypass him. Cao Hu felt so depressed.

Especially Feidong's words woke Cao Hu up. Thinking about it carefully, this matter was not a coincidence. Although he had a trip with the county magistrate, his relationship with the county magistrate Chen Gui showed that he was still very harmonious, but it was obviously not as good as before. Intentionally or unintentionally, there seemed to be some diaphragm and many important things. Cao Hu felt that he was slowly kicked out of Chen Gui's issuing circle. Chen Gui no longer believed in him, but instead favored Zhang Chunnian and Li Dong. Suddenly, Cao Hu felt a little shocked: Chen Gui wouldn't choose one of the two and replace him with him?

Based on recent performances, Cao Hu became more and more like him the more he thought about it. He remembered the letter Li Yunniang wrote to him, saying that he was wronged in the Chen family. Cao Hu resisted clenched his fists and a sharp look appeared in his eyes. No, it should be a fierce light.

However, when I thought of Li Yunniang, Cao Hu couldn't help but touch the letter he hid in his arms with his hand. It was the letter Li Yunniang wrote to him. A warm feeling arose in his heart, and he shouted: Yunniang, you must come then.

Cao Hu pretended to be fine, but did not go to Chen Gui to argue, and was obedient to Chen Gui. Chen Gui didn't know whether he was calm or had no time to move Cao Hu, so the two of them were in peace for a while.

Before he knew it, it was the three-day period. Cao Hu, who had been impatient, found a reason to patrol, took off his husband's uniform, put on plain clothes, and specially repaired the noodles, asked the maid to comb his hair and put on a brand new dress. He rode a horse and rushed to Yun Niang early in the letter to mention Guanyue Temple.

Guanyue Temple is about five miles outside Jiangyou City. Jiangyou is just a small county town with a small population and various temples, but there are many Taoist temples. There are more than ten people who can be named. Some monks seem to have too many monks. Guanyue Temple does not occupy famous mountains, and there is no presidency of the Taoist monks, nor is there any government care. This is not big or small. It is said that during the heyday, there are only one old monk named Huiqing who is responsible for the management. Even if there is only one person, the incense can be barely maintained.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Huiqing felt that he had a great fortune because he met a noble man on this day. When Cao Hu arrived, Huiqing thought that these clerks who were jealous of money would not even let go of Buddhism and wanted to pay tribute by himself. Unexpectedly, the Captain Cao donated a ingredient of five taels of silver incense and oil. He was so happy that Huiqing laughed so much that he couldn't see the eyes. He called "Good" and said a great word to the Bodhisattva. When Cao Hu asked to ask for a clean room in the backyard for rest, Huiqing also agreed.

"Master, there will be an old friend to meet you later. I'll ask the master to do something convenient at that time." Cao Hu said far away, and then said with a little domineering attitude: "I think the master will help this, right?"

The captain is equivalent to the later public security chief, with great power. Cao Hu's words were half a request and half a threat. The old monk Huiqing lived for decades and saw many storms. Hearing this, he immediately said: "Captain Cao, don't worry, it's convenient for others, it's convenient for himself. Monks do not talk wildly or provoke trouble. Since the captain has important matters, I will definitely not disturb you. This is located in a remote place, and there are only old monks in the temple to take care of them. There are no outsiders, and no one will run around in the backyard. Please rest assured."

As soon as Cao Hu opened his mouth, Huiqing guessed that Captain Cao might have invited a good family to have a secret meeting here. If the woman is so arrogant, only those who are not necessarily glorious will avoid everyone. As for why they come to secluded temples, it can be explained that rich people are becoming more and more varied, such as playing with thin horses in Yangzhou, raising rabbits, and harsh people in the wild. It is not news. Some people also like to have a quiet meeting in Buddhism, because they think this is more exciting and easier to arouse lust. There are too many things to do. Although this conflicts with the Buddhist rules, Guanyue Temple is not incense, Huiqing lives very poorly. The monk's robes are still from the previous year. They have not changed into new clothes for two years, and they really can't stand the money.

Besides, Cao Hu is the captain of a county. He is a poor monk. Others can deal with him by touching his fingers. So Huiqing agreed tactfully, not only agrees, but also takes the initiative to say that he will tighten his mouth and prevent outsiders from disturbing him.

Cao Hu was very satisfied with this and nodded and said, "If you are a master, if there are illegal people in the temple in the future, you can go to the county government to find me."

Huiqing thanked him quickly and made another pot of good tea that he would only be willing to make during the holidays for Cao Hu. Then he said, "Captain Cao waited for a while, and the backyard was a little messy. The old monk went to clean it first, and it would be ready soon. There is a pot of rough tea here. Although the tea leaves are rough, they are just soaked with good spring water. It can barely be in the mouth. Please use it slowly by sir."

Money can make the devil push the mill. Cao Hu was very satisfied with Huiqing's performance. He bowed and said, "Master is here to be a good man."

About two quarters of an hour, the clean room in the backyard was ready, but Cao Hu was not in a hurry to move in. Instead, he leaned against the mountain gate and looked through the autumn water and looked at the mountain road below, hoping that the beautiful figure that had appeared in his dream for thousands of times. After waiting for nearly two hours, until noon, when Cao Hu was so anxious that he was about to get angry, his eyes suddenly lit up: a pretty figure was slowly walking from the bottom of the mountain to Guanyue Temple halfway up the mountain.
