Chapter 1 Fragrant Hills

In the spring of the second year of Longqing, Chen Mu took office as Qianhu, Xiangshan.

From Qingyuan Anyuan Post Station, I walked to the Dujiang Post Station, to the south to the foot of Xiaojin Mountain in the northwest of Guangcheng, and walked around the city on the south road. When I went to the south of the city ship to cross the river, I was in Xiangshan when I was down-to-earth again.

As soon as he got off the boat, he greeted the family soldiers, servants, and banner officials with more than fifty people leading horses and pulling carts. On the shore, the Xiangshan County yamen runs over, recognizes Chen Mu's official robe, bows and asks with a smile: "But Chen Qianhu? County Magistrate Zhou has asked the young man to wait for you here for nine days!"

A yamen runner led the way, and a yamen runner ran to report the news. Everyone surrounded Chen Mu and walked towards the Xiangshan County.

No one felt more mysterious than Shao Tingda. He returned to Yuegang to do business for Chen Mu. As soon as he arrived at his hometown, he heard that the war in Chenghai was fighting. He caught a great opportunity. The land price outside Yuegang City was immediately halfway, and 500 taels of silver was splashed out like water to exchange for a wooden box of real estate deeds.

The road was blocked, so he lived in Yuegang for two months. When he returned to Qingyuan, he had already left the house empty. Only then did he realize that his brother was already a thousand households in Xiangshan, and he himself was one of the hundred households in Xiangshan.

Then he brought several people all the way to chase Chen Mu in Xiaojinshan.

He brought back two of the family members of Shao, the Japanese pirates of their family.

Speaking of which, it was Chen Mu's cousin, named Shao Xing and Shao Yong. When he was a teenager, he couldn't stand the digging of food from the ground and could not learn to pass on his family to farm. He followed the pirates on the shore and got on the boat. In two or three years, the Japanese pirates were beaten by Qi Jiguang and ran away. They fled home as a hiding place, for fear of being recognized.

Shao Tingda returned to Qingyuan, worried that he would encounter defeated bandits on the way, so Zeng Yiben brought them back. At least he could play with his sword and spear, and he was a relative who knew the roots and planned to stay by his side as a helper.

After all, if you have achieved this military achievements, you should have been on the general flag when you come back.

How could I know that it is not the general flag, but Shao Baihu!

When Chen Mu went to Xiangshan County, he saw Zhou Xing, he said with a frown: "Chen Qianhu, Zhou is waiting for you so hard! He said while walking, I will take you to Qianhuyuan first, and then patrol the various places in the next few days to understand the military fields and areas under his command."

Chen Mu responded with a smile. Anyway, he was exhausted all the way and was not in a hurry to rest for a few days. Moreover, even if Zhou Xing didn't say it, he had to walk the entire Xiangshan Mountain.

However, seeing that Zhou Xing was so anxious, he was afraid that something might happen.

Military affairs.

"The county where Qianhu is located is not far west, and Xiangshan County has no township. Since the 14th year of Hongwu, the township has been changed to Fangdu. There is one Fangshidu in the county, and the county's government office is in Renhoufang. Qianhu is located in Liangdu."

Last week, Chen Mu introduced the situation in Xiangshan County. Because he was close to Guangzhou Prefecture, although Xiangshan County was large, there were no cities and the Eleventh House was adjacent to each other. Because the people were few and narrow, they were close to rivers and seas, most of the people made a living by fishing and merchants.

The carriage and horses were walking slowly, and the dilapidated Qianhu House in Xiangshan was far away. The huge Qianhu House had no stone walls and only had wooden railings, which circled large houses and facilities for Qianhu House.

Chen Mu didn't feel good.

A yamen runner had already gone to Qianhu Institution to report. At this time, hundreds of people stood outside the Qianhu Institution waiting from a distance, with a crooked formation. Even though Chen Mu was used to the virtues of the Qingyuan Guards, he still felt a headache.

This is the first two words that only have everything to be done, how can it rise!

"Is this my Thousand Households? Brother Zhou, Chen thought Qingyuanwei had already...hey!" Chen Mu couldn't help but frowned, but when he approached, he suddenly widened his eyes, clamped his legs and put Zhou Xing away, and ran forward, leading a group of soldiers to rush around.

The person standing outside the Qianhu Institute led the flag army to welcome Qianhu was not someone else, but Deng Zilong!

"You said you were a deputy Qianhu, and you didn't tell me which Qianhu office it was. It turned out to be here!"

Chen Mu turned over and dismounted, Deng Zilong was even more surprised than him, "You, you, are you Qianhu in Xiangshan?"

Why did this kid run over to me?

Well, Deng Zilong is not as happy as Chen Mu. He sighed and bowed: "Deng Zilong, deputy deputy of Xiangshan, is the Qianhu."

The young man standing side by side with Deng Zilong also bowed: "Sun Ao, deputy deputy of Qianhu, pay homage to Qianhu!"

Two deputy Qianhu saluted, and the two hundred-man military formations followed one after another. If it weren't for Deng Zilong, Chen Mu's face would not be stinking, but now he was not energetic and showed his hand forward, "Go in and say, you came early, tell me about the situation of Qianhu Sautou. County Magistrate Zhou, please!"

He had known about the fact that there were no 100 households in Xiangshan. In the past, the thousand households were killed by empty wages. Deng Zilong gave Chen Mu a shot of a heart-warming agent under his command. At least in his opinion, there was still a lot of potential for this room to be "young and strong".

Two deputy, four hundred households, and one assistant, the average age is less than thirty. Of course, Wei Balang made great efforts at this age.

By chance, Deng Zilong became his subordinate, and Chen Mu couldn't stop the smile on his face.

When he beat Li Yayuan, he was still Shangguan!

Although Qianhu House is not very good, the Qianhu Yamen is extremely luxurious.

The roof is blue tiles and animal ridges, and the beams and eaves are decorated with green green green painted.

There are six wing rooms in the front gate building, two horse houses, three front halls, six wing rooms in the middle gate building, three warehouses, and three back halls. On the west is the martial arts court, and on the east is the Qianhu House, with prison rooms and kitchen yards, surrounded by courtyard walls, and there is a large pool courtyard in the back hall, with a few coconut trees planted.

Sitting on the chair of the Master Zitan in the front hall, Chen Mu patted the armrest and said to Zhou Xing, who was sitting next to him: "I know how Shangren Qianhu died? The chair has not been confiscated?"

"I copied it, and I left eight tables and chairs in the front hall, and all the others were emptied. Four thousand taels of cellars were dug out of the backyard, and the private property of the Qianhu House was collected for 7,000 taels." Zhou Xing nodded and responded: "As for last year, there were two deputy Qianhu Houses left in the guards, and one was exiled to the nine sides and the other was hanged. At that time, Zhou had just taken office and watched him being taken to Guangzhou Prefecture."

Accustomed to life and death, Chen Mu was not sympathetic at all and smiled and said, "This is a bargain. Brother Deng, you came early. You should have a number of flag troops in Xiangshan, right?"

Deng Zilong stood up and bowed, paused before saying, "Qianhu, Deng is planning to resign."

Um?

"No! Chen just came and you resigned. What's going on?" Chen Mu almost slapped the table. He was still happy because Deng Zilong was about to resign. "If you have something to do, let's solve the problem."

Xinjiangnan has never been so worried about the rebel Deng Zilong, who is several times more than himself, and has never been so angry. He said: "The Xiangshan guards the Thousand Houses Station, the flag army has a total of 13,000 acres of land and guards. Only 13,000 acres of land can be cultivated. Twenty thousand acres of them are all on the mountain. Not to mention the eight thousand acres of wasteland, the four thousand acres are directly placed in the sea, and more than 2,000 acres are occupied by the Bald Donkey Temple in Guangcheng."
