Chapter 1187 (1/2)
Li Fu asked Hu Dahai and Xu Cunren to have dinner in the evening. There was no time to prepare in the kitchen. The steward changed the steward who had been serving in the yard and asked where there was a good restaurant nearby. He asked him to take the way to book a banquet himself and told the shop not to forget to deliver it.
It should be said that these three Yamens are the most leisurely in the administration of justice. Because small cases can't reach him and don't need to be solved by him. There are basically no major cases at the provincial level - not no, but the major cases are often related to a number of powerful families in Nanhai County. How can those powerful families go to the court Yamen to fight lawsuits and let the court yamen judge them? They solved it in private!
Therefore, Xu Cunren can only sleep in the back house every day. Grass is growing at the gate of the lobby!
Xu Cunren and Hu Dahai arrived at the government emissary's Yamen on time. Although they had never seen each other before, and had no friendship, they all felt a bit of sympathy and sympathy for each other because they came together in this special place and special moment.
After a while of greetings, Li Fu said with a smile, ”these two adults have worked hard here these years!”
”I'm really ashamed!”
”I dare not!”
They smiled and sighed bitterly, and could see the sadness in their hearts.
In this land boundary, they do not want to control, but they have too many constraints on all sides, which they can not easily move.
Li Fu, with a straight face, said: ”it's hard for you two to protect yourself! There are no outsiders here, we don't have to be polite! ”
As soon as the words came out, Xu Cunren and Hu Dahai changed their faces and exchanged eyes.
When the words are said, there is no scruples. Li Fu still trusts these two people. If Xu Cunren really colludes with the local gentry, the Yamen will not be so cold. Many school leaders, thousands of families, hundreds of families, and counselors under Hu Dahai are all local people, and they are inextricably linked with the major gentry. That's the person of the family. They don't need to draw him together.
The four families have an instinctive antipathy and repulsion to the imperial officials, and they will not draw them together. They also look down on the barbarism and incommunicado of the southern barbarians, and even disdain to be in the company of them.
It's a pity that these two seem to be discouraged. They are not very interested in the outside world. They don't know much about the four families! It's not realistic that Li Fu wants to find something useful from them.
Li Fu can't help being disappointed in his heart. No wonder! The four families united the local tyrants more and more arrogantly, and did not pay attention to the court and the emperor more and more!
The officials of the imperial court gave them such an impression. How could they respect them?
After three rounds of drinking, Xu Cunren found an excuse to leave first. He could see that Li Fu had something to say to Hu Dahai alone.
”The Marquis is is young and has made great achievements in the northwest and Liaodong. Although I have heard the Marquis's reputation in the south corner, I think the elder husband should be so admired! With the Marquis of Nanhai County, maybe there will be a new atmosphere! ” Hu Dahai raised his glass with a smile and said with a heartfelt smile, ”I wish you a successful start!”
”Thank you very much, brother Hu!” When Li Fu smiled and lifted his neck to drink, he looked at the nearly 40 year old general with Zitang's face. His comfortable and stuffy life made him look a little flabby and not very good. He said that he was a military general, but he could not see the decisive and majestic manner of a military general.
