Chapter 43

The melodious bell echoed over the Dabei Temple, making the dusk in the temple look a little ethereal and lonely. The big bell is a command from the jungle, ringing the bells in the morning and evening, each of which is 108 times. When the morning strikes, it will break the long night and warn you to sleep; when the evening strikes, it will feel like the dim street and the darkness is sparse.

Ye Xiaotian sat cross-legged on the Zen bed, listening to the bells, and seemed to be a little out of the world. Seeing him lowering his eyebrows and eyes and solemn appearance of Baoxiang, if he was seen by the monks of Dafeng Temple, he would inevitably exclaim: "This son has great wisdom."

Mr. Ye, who has great wisdom, sat upright, and what he could not escape from his mind was not the Buddha's Dharma image, but Brother Kong Fang. He placed his only hope on Dai Tongzhi, but Ye Xiaotian was unsure whether Dai Tongzhi could help him complete his mission.

This is related to everyone's most tangible interests, so it is not something that can be obtained by playing tricks or making the prefect Zhang smile. With Dai Tongzhi's unwilling help, if he can get the amount of relief funds like last year, he will burn high incense.

When Ye Xiaotian was worried about money in Dabei Temple, the Ye Mansion in Huxian was like a guest, which was very lively. Those who came to Ye Mansion were all guardians from each village, the main, the village master, the fortress master, and even a certain tribe chief in the deep mountains and forests.

Those who live in the mountains will give gifts, those who live by the river will give gifts, and those who live by the river will give gifts, and those who are neither surrounded by mountains nor rely on water will give gifts. Ye Xiaotian is not at home, and Tao Si Niang dares not make decisions, so she wants not to accept them, but the gifts given by these people are diverse and the ways of giving gifts are really undeniable.

Tao Si Niang just said very politely, "My master is not in the mansion, please leave a reply and get the gifts back, and wait for my master to come back..." The leader of the mountain put down the gifts immediately, and replied very roughly and "unschemingly": "Since that's the case, please ask the little lady to accept the gifts first. When the second master returns to the mansion, we will come to visit again and say goodbye!" After that, he turned around. He pulled away with a high spirit and couldn't even catch up with him.

There was also an old man with white hair sent to give gifts in the village. He was leaning on a crutch and trembling as if he was falling in the wind. Tao Si Niang explained to him a few tactfully, and the old man held his ears and said with a loud voice: "What? Yes, yes, I'm going to be eighty after the New Year..."

Tao Si Niang was very helpless. It was a festive season for these people to come to the door to give gifts, which obviously had other intentions. Rumors were rumored that County Magistrate Ye went to Tongren Prefecture to apply for relief funds this year, and County Magistrate Hua decided that the distribution of relief funds this year was entirely responsible for the county Magistrate Ye. These people obviously came for this.

As the butler, Tao Si Niang didn't dare to make decisions without authorization, so she asked Donnie. After hearing her, Donnie stared at her big watery eyes and asked cutely: "Si Niang thinks, should we accept this gift, or shouldn't we accept it?"

Mao Wenzhi couldn't let go of a black bear skin. Hearing their conversation, he kept shouting: "Check it, why don't you accept it! I tell you, sometimes people don't accept it. You will offend people. This bear skin is good, so I took it to the kang..."

Seeing that Si Niang was worried, Hua Yunfei said considerately: "Si Niang doesn't have to make things difficult. Let's accept it first. The county officials also need to rely on the support of the leading figures in each fort and village to do things. Otherwise, it is difficult to leave the county government. If there is anything wrong, I will take care of it!"

When Tao Si Niang heard this, she couldn't help but feel warm. She glanced at him softly, lowered her head slightly, and had a gentle and charming expression. Si Niang had already faintly felt Hua Yunfei's affection for her, but when she thought that she was older than Hua Yunfei and a married woman, she would feel inferior.

Mao Wenzhi looked at Hua Yunfei and gave her a thumbs up. After thinking about it, he grabbed another fox skin. He used the bear skin himself, so he gave the fox skin to Xiaoma Ye. He was not as good as Hua Yunfei, but he was slow to speak and quick to act. Mao was a mover.

In a teahouse at the foot of the mountain, there was a scholar-like person sitting there, as if he was drinking tea bored, but every person who climbed the mountain to visit Ye's house secretly recorded his identity. This was favorable evidence used to criticize Ye Xiaotian. As long as seven points were true, who would examine the three points of false?

In the house behind Ye’s mansion, Qian Qingqing was just a long entanglement, and was accompanying her to study in the study. Sitting in the study, Qian Qingqing was very depressed. She came to Ye Xiaotian for Ye Xiaotian, but she unexpectedly came to Ye Xiaotian to Tongren when she arrived in Ye’s mansion. It seemed that she had to waste a lot of time here.

There was a beautiful little woman with a charming charm in the classroom. Mr. Xixi was immediately happy. Today, he was very energetic, citing scriptures and speaking with classics, and his words were funny, which not only showed his knowledge and talent, but also did not feel boring in teaching. He listened with relish from afar.

But the pretty little woman didn't seem interested in his hard-working performance. She held her chin and looked lazily at the pear blossoms in the courtyard outside the window, making the old man want to transform into the snow-white pear blossoms, and was lucky to be gazed by the beauty's wonderful eyes.

A strong figure suddenly flashed in the yard, carrying a hunting bow and a pot of arrows on his shoulders. It was Hua Yunfei. Hua Yunfei was not as ignorant as Mao Wenzhi. Hua Yunfei did not take any gifts from each village and village.

Mao Wenzhi gave the fox skin to Xiaoma Ye. Hua Yunfei once saw Si Niang sitting with Xiaoma Ye sitting with her own eyes to evaluate the fox skin. Xiaoma Ye’s happiness and the envy in Si Niang’s eyes. Hua Yunfei looked at it. He decided to go into the mountain himself to hunt a sable for his beloved woman.

Qian Qingqing watched Hua Yunfeihe bow leave, and her heart suddenly moved. She wanted to get close to Ye Xiaotian, which was to seduce him with sex and wait for an opportunity to kill him, but she hated being approached by men from her heart. If she could attack Ye Xiaotian with a crossbow, wouldn't she have to be slandered?

Thinking of this, the mysterious eyes rippled slightly, and a mysterious smile gently held the corner of his lips. Just this smile was like a midnight cloud flower blooming quietly, emitting infinite charm. Mr. Xi was lost in his sight, and the book in his hand almost fell.

Yaoyao was listening to the teacher's lecture carefully, but suddenly he saw that the teacher was speechless and couldn't help but think: "Did the teacher forget the words?"

He was immediately energetic and recited: "Sitting and standing and walking must be solemn, always staying in the house. But if you have any mistakes, you will admit your mistakes. Even if you have any ability, don't praise your ability. If you get married, you will not be worthy of your husband's reputation as a strong woman. This is the first thing for a daughter. It is a great cleverness to listen to you. I will tell you carefully and listen carefully."

The gentleman suddenly woke up and said a little embarrassedly: "Ah! Yes, yes, listen carefully, listen carefully..." An old face turned a little red, and he secretly glanced at it. The beautiful young woman was still looking out the window, thinking about anything, not paying attention to his discomfort, and couldn't help but feel lost.

Dai Tongzhi looked worried all afternoon, which made the clerks in his house very puzzled. The Tongzhi master smiled all day long and rarely showed this look. Therefore, he was a little careful when doing things, for fear of sweeping him to the end.

Before he could release the yamen, Dai Tongzhi hurriedly left the yamen and rushed back to his residence. Seeing that his master had returned, the servants hurriedly bowed their heads to him. The prefect of Tongren was a local prefect, and seven or eight out of ten officials under his command were hereditary tribe chieftains of all sizes. The same was Dai Tongzhi.

However, after all, he lived in Tongren City, and his family's rules were not like those of the chieftains who lived in the village and stick to the tradition. After the family gave him a gift, they would do their own things. Without the need to be like those of the traditional chieftains, the owner had never left for a moment, so he could not look up at him.

Dai Tongzhi hurried to the third courtyard and turned to the courtyard of the guest house on his right. There was a knife guarding outside the hanging flower gate at the entrance of the courtyard. Seeing that Dai Tongzhi was coming, they naturally would not stop him. Dai Tongzhi let him walk in. There were hand-written verandas in the left and right wings of the yard, and there was a cover room in the front porch and back of the main room.

Dai Tongzhi entered the main room, turned left, and walked around behind the floor-to-ground wooden screen, then turned into the study room. A thin and dry old man in the study room was holding a book, while drinking tea while reading the book, looking very leisurely. He looked up and saw Dai Tongzhi coming in. The old man looked a little surprised and asked casually: "Why did you come back so early today?"

Dai Tongzhi sighed, sat down on the chair beside him, and said lazily: "I encountered some trouble today."

The thin old man looked tight and asked, "Can you be alert?"

Dai Tongzhi shook his head and said, "Don't worry Zhao Amu, this matter has nothing to do with you and me. It's because I personally have encountered some trouble."

The thin old man breathed a sigh of relief, frowned slightly and said, "What trouble have you encountered? It won't affect your and my plan, right?"

This thin old man was not well-known in Tongren, so he went to the street to report his surname. I am afraid no one knew who he was. But he was famous in Bozhou. More people knew him than Yang Yinglong, the lord of Bozhou, because he was Zhao Xin, the Great Amu of Bozhou. Compared with the Yang Tianwang who lived in seclusion, Zhao Yun and Da Amu had a higher exposure rate.

Dai Tongzhi shook his head, and threatened Ye Xiaotian to tell him about the matter of seeking relief funds for Hu County, and said with a wry smile: "I have been thinking hard in the government office for half a day, but I haven't come up with a good solution. It's not easy to get relief funds for him."

Zhao Xin scolded coldly with anger: "I have said a long time ago, don't mess with those good women, but you don't listen. If this continues, one day you will die on the woman's belly."

Dai Tongzhi smiled and said, "Zhao Amu, don't you Yang Tusi also have such a habit?"

Zhao Yun said suddenly: "Although we Yang Tusi has such a habit, we will not miss the big deal. Although we Yang Tusi has such a habit, who is tired of living, dare to force him with such privacy. Can you do it?"

Dai Tongzhi rolled his eyes and stopped talking in disappointment. Zhao Xin stroked his beard and thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Do you want to fight for more relief money in Huxian? Haha, I think, you might as well be the case, as this will arouse the dissatisfaction of the county officials with Zhang Duo."

Dai Tongzhi was stunned and said, "How about Yucheng? Zhang Duo will not agree."

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Under normal circumstances, he certainly wouldn't agree, but what if Ye Xiaotian could resolve the dispute over Mercury Mountain for him?"

Dai Tongzhi was stunned again, Zhao Xin said, "Zhang Duo is having a headache about the Mercury Mountain dispute. If Ye Xiaotian can solve this problem for him, how much does it cost to repay him if Zhang Duo is willing to give him more money?"

Dai Tongzhiqi said: "How can Ye Xiaotian resolve the Mercury Mountain dispute?"

Zhao Xin said: "If he can't, wouldn't we just help us secretly?"

Dai Chonghua said in surprise: "Aren't we going to make a big fuss about Mercury Mountain? How can we..."

Halfway through Dai Chonghua's words, he saw Zhao Xin's eyes, and suddenly became happy and changed his mind, "I understand, are you planning to make a comeback after the situation is done?"
