Chapter 282

The magistrate is an official who is in charge of matters such as grain transportation, homeland, water conservancy and litigation under the head of the prefecture. He has the responsibility to supervise the head of the prefecture, which is equivalent to the deputy position of the prefecture.∈↗

In the early years of the Great Qi Dynasty, in order to strengthen supervision and control of local officials and prevent the prefecture from being too powerful and specializing in the great power, Taizu of Qi established the position of "Tongjuan". The Tongjuan was usually directly appointed by the officials to assist the prefecture government and had the power to report directly to the officials.

Xi Xingwen was the second place in Changlong's sixth year. He started as a Hanlin Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, responsible for drafting edicts for the officials. Later, Gao Zanghao liked him and was also a closed disciple of the great scholar Cheng Yi. He served as a Hanlin Bachelor's Post, and was also an observer of Jiangning Prefecture, and was later promoted to Hangzhou Tongzhang.

Originally, Xi Xingwen's career path was still rising all the way, but unexpectedly, a young and somewhat inconspicuous magistrate came last year. Compared with Bai Qing, he felt that he had lived a little bit as if he had lived a little bit before. Although Bai Qing had never said it explicitly, there was no airtight wall in the officialdom. Soon Xi Xingwen knew all kinds of things. Although Bai Qing was promoted by real contributions, in Xi Xingwen's eyes, Bai Qing was just a villain who climbed up with the power of his wife. After all, Bai Qing's origin was not a secret. As a disciple of a great Confucian scholar, Xi Xingwen naturally had a kind of arrogance that scholars were more than the top, so he always didn't like Bai Qing.

However, in the past year, after Bai Qing's subordinates suffered many defeats, he had to temporarily settle down. He understood that although he had been in the local area, his experience in struggle was more than a little worse than that of Bai Qing.

"Master Bai!"

After seeing Bai Qing sitting down on the table, the other officials also came and greeted Bai Qing.

Bai Qing also nodded slightly to his subordinates with a smile on his face.

Li Shishi and Li Qingzhao around Bai Qing also attracted the attention of everyone present.

Hangzhou has been a place where beautiful women have appeared since ancient times. Although everyone here, as officials of the court and in Hangzhou, a place full of "humanities" culture, is naturally a frequent visitor to these places of fireworks and romance, and is used to seeing beautiful women. Even in the hall of this restaurant, there are many famous prostitutes and beauties who are sought after by countless people on weekdays. However, after Li Shishi sat here, those beauties who were tall in the past were now as if they had seen the bright moon grains of rice. The sought-afters on their bodies were almost instantly beaten back to their prototype under the dazzling light of Li Shishi.

In the eyes of everyone, Li Shishi at this time was like the fairy who was exiled. Just sitting there made people feel a natural calm momentum, making it difficult for them to have any blasphemy thoughts.

Under Li Shishi's dazzling light, Li Qingzhao, who was originally a beauty, seemed to have become less noticeable.

However, the officials in Hangzhou have always been short of literati and scholars. After everyone woke up from the shocking shock when they first met Li Shishi, they saw Li Qingzhao beside Bai Qingqing. Some officials showed a somewhat fanatical expression on their faces.

A woman who can impress countless men and make them feel inferior to Li Qingzhao is probably no one else in history.

The identities of Bai Qing and his two wives are not a secret in the officialdom in Hangzhou, and many of them have seen each other for the first time. However, every time they see them, the shock in their hearts will still be less than half.

Not only those officials, but many beautiful people in the hall, either famous prostitutes or the families of officials present, had an unconcealed yearning on their faces after seeing Li Shishi and Li Qingzhao.

After Bai Qing brought Li Qingzhao and Li Shishi to the hall, the atmosphere in the originally very lively hall reached a new height.

"See Eun's Mansion!"

While Bai Qing was greeting with his subordinates in a warm manner, a voice penetrated into his ears. Bai Qing turned around and saw a figure standing there respectfully. It was Gu Qingfeng, who was then the magistrate of Qiantang County.

Compared with a year ago, Gu Qingfeng was less young and frivolous, more calm and capable. Gu Qingfeng had been a guard for many years. After Bai Qing brought him to the position of Qiantang County magistrate, he also took it easy. Over the past year, the management of Qiantang County was well organized, which did not embarrass Bai Qing.

"It's Qingfeng, sit down!"

After seeing Gu Qingfeng's face clearly, Bai Qing nodded at him with a smile. After hearing Bai Qing's words, Gu Qingfeng first greeted all his colleagues, and then sat down respectfully in front of Bai Qing.

Although many magistrates or chief clerks here are already in their thirties, no one dares to underestimate the two young people in front of him. Shortly after Bai Qing took over Hangzhou, everyone present saw his iron fist. Not to mention what those people were thinking, at least on the surface, everyone respected him and looked obedient.

However, Bai Qing also knew very well that people's hearts were separated from their stomachs. He never thought that everyone would convince themselves, as long as they didn't drag themselves back.

Seeing Bai Qing giving Gu Qingfeng a face-to-face instruction, Xi Xingwen was sitting on the side, subconsciously frowned.

To be honest, in the past year when Bai Qing was in charge of Hangzhou, everything Bai Qing did made Xi Xingwen look a little emotional and shocked. After all, not everyone can do it to Bai Qing's level. However, no matter how much he admires, with a very strong boss like Bai Qing, he seems to be dispensable. Many times, he can even feel that the magistrates face him and Bai Qing, there are absolutely two completely different attitudes. Although they have not stated it clearly, the contempt that sometimes accidentally reveals still makes him feel that there is an invisible anger burning in his heart.

Almost implicated, he no longer thought about how to grab power in his hands.

"General Yue is here!"

While they were talking, a heavy sound of footsteps came from outside. Then everyone felt that the floor under their feet was trembling constantly with the footsteps, as if there was a momentum of thousands of troops advancing together.

Although many of the people here already knew about Yue Fei's arrival in Hangzhou, and they were well-known for the famous General Guide, most of them had never seen Yue Fei's true appearance.

Since Fang La in western Zhejiang led the Manichaeists to rebel, although Hangzhou, one of the economic centers in the south, has been at the forefront of the war, the war has not yet been affected. These people actually do not have much concept of those rebels and wars.

But after feeling this magnificent momentum that made people feel extremely palpitations, they suddenly felt at a loss, and some people subconsciously swallowed their saliva with difficulty.

However, Bai Qing still had a calm expression on his face, but to his surprise, Xi Xingwen, who was sitting not far away from him, did not have much strange expression on his face.

It seems that this drama is exciting and has some backbone, Bai Qing commented in his heart.

In the eyes of almost everyone's attention, the door of the hall was pushed open from outside, and then a dozen figures appeared at the door, slowly entering in, surrounded by clusters in the middle. A figure with a bright smile on his face was the Marquis of Huaining and General Guide Junyue Fei.

Today, Yue Fei was wearing a black long gown and was embroidered with golden silk threads on her clothes. She looked like a low-key and luxurious feeling, which invisibly raised her temperament a lot, making her body less enchanting and more heroic spirit of killing and decisiveness.

Seeing Yue Fei coming in, Bai Qing and Xi Xingwen quickly stood up. As the two people with the highest status and official positions in Hangzhou, they greeted Yue Fei with a warm smile on their faces: "It is a blessing for General Yue to come to our Hangzhou. Today, they have a brief banquet, which is a welcome to all the generals in the Hangzhou officialdom!"

Seeing Bai Qing and others approaching, Yue Fei pursed her lips slightly, showed a faint smile, and said to Bai Qing and Xi Xingwen with a smile: "You two are so polite, but Yue Fei feels a little frightened. I am really disturbing you!"

"The general is speaking seriously. Now all the generals are surrounding the Manichaean rebels in front of us, and they have worked hard and made great contributions. It is a great honor for us to invite you here. What's more, the Liang army is now facing Wuzhou City, and the safety of our officials, people and the people in Hangzhou depends on you. For this reason, we must entertain you well, so as not to be careless, and it will be broken by the time!" Bai Qing said with a smile at Yue Fei.

When he heard Bai Qing's voice, the subordinates behind him also chuckled with understanding.

When Yue Fei heard Bai Qing's words a little funny, a smile appeared on her face. With that chuckle, a charming look suddenly appeared in her eyes, which instantly made the officials straighten their eyes. Such a strong woman could actually show such an attractive style, which made everyone feel a little uneasy.

Fortunately, Bai Qing also understood Yue Fei's personality during the past few days of contact. He coughed lightly, which made everyone's eyes feel a little clear.

Seeing Bai Qing's little move just now, Yue Fei's eyes showed a joking smile, but she still chuckled at Bai Qing and the Xi Xingwen in front of her and said, "Bai Zhizhou is still so funny. After eating your meal, you have to hold on to this outside of Hangzhou, so as not to ask Bai Zhizhou, you are scolding me behind your back and not doing anything. That would be bad, right?" After that, Yue Fei actually blinked at Bai Qing mischievously in front of so many people.

I had known that Yue Fei was elusive in character, but Bai Qing was subconsciously choked by Yue Fei's appearance just now. He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "General is serious, so General Yue and all the generals, let's take the seat first?"

Seeing Bai Qing avoiding the heavy lifting, Yue Fei showed a smile in her eyes, but she didn't get entangled anymore and reached out to Bai Qingyi:

"please!"

"please!"
