Chapter 166 Returning to the Palace
Zhou Daoquan left as soon as he said he would, and the next day he summoned Li Mu, Zhang Shihong and others, encouraged them, and rewarded them with some property, and finally said: "The two counties of Qinghe and Baoming are temporarily under the jurisdiction of Zhang Shihong. The government will return to Yunzhou, write a letter to His Majesty, and then send officials to take up the post."

Then he said to Li Mu: "After the Gongyuan rural examination in March, you can take my business card and go to the government office to find me. Every year there is a literary meeting in the rural examination, and Mu has a lot of talent. You might as well try to win for the old man at the literary meeting. .”

After arranging some things, under the protection of Shen Chong, he drove away from Qinghe County and went straight to Yunzhou.

He is the governor of Yunzhou, and he is in charge of the three thousand miles of Yunzhou. It is impossible for him to stay in Qinghe for a long time, but Zhang Shihong and others were surprised to leave in such a hurry.

Everyone originally wanted to prepare some local specialties for Zhou Daoquan, but Master Zhou was about to leave before they had time to buy them.

"Our Lord Governor is really a clean and honest official. He came suddenly and left suddenly. We didn't let us hold the banquet or farewell banquet."

Standing on the official road, watching Zhou Daoquan's car drive away, Zhang Shihong sighed to Li Mu: "If the Great Yin governed the country with such upright officials, how could there be turmoil?"

He had heard that Zhou Daoquan had a reputation of being clean and honest before, but he had never seen it before, so he never believed it.

After all, the officials around him are all corrupt, even the small yamen servants in the county town have a lot of money-making activities, and arresting heads is even more profitable.

The princes of the imperial court have only heard of masters of money-making, but few of them are honest. Nowadays, scholars who participate in scientific examinations all want to stand out, honor their ancestors, and rarely serve the country and the people.

Seeing that Zhou Daoquan was so honest and honest, Zhang Shihong was not used to it: "In the entire Great Yin court, people like Mr. Zhou are rare!"

He is also a somewhat ambitious person, otherwise he would not have scolded the Incorruptible Envoy because of the disaster victims, so seeing Zhou Daoquan being so honest and caring for the people, he naturally admired him in his heart.

"It is because he is rarely seen that he is struggling!"

Li Mu sighed: "The whole world is turbid and I am alone. Those who cannot follow the trend will generally end badly."

Zhang Shihong said: "Little people in Shengdou can't live more than a hundred years, and they will eventually be old and return to the earth. They are born quietly, and after death, no one knows. How different are insects? If you walk the path you want to go like Master Zhou, then your life will be worth it."

In fact, he didn't have much ambition before, but since he was almost killed by the corpse demon, his mentality has undergone a great change, from the original idea of ​​honoring his ancestors to the idea of ​​serving the country and the people.

Li Mu glanced at Zhang Shihong in surprise: "Brother Zhang has such pride, Master Zhou must be very happy."

Zhang Shihong said: "Nowadays the world is full of chaos, if you can manage a place like Mr. Zhou, it will be a great merit!"

He said to Li Mu: "Brother Li, little brother, my abilities are limited, and I'm afraid I'll have to stay in Qinghe County for a long time in the future. I just hope that Qinghe County can be managed well so that the people will not die of cold and hunger, and I will not fail the sage articles I read. !"

Li Mu raised his thumb: "Brother Zhang, if he has such an idea, it will be a blessing to the people of Qinghe County!"

After the two returned to the county seat, Zhang Shihong, as the county magistrate, continued to handle government affairs in the county government, while Li Mu discussed with several servants about moving.

After March, it will be the provincial examination.

Li Mu is going to Yunzhou to take part in the scientific examination, once he leaves, he will never come back.

After all, Qinghe County is too small to be suitable for him to live in. In the future, the capital city of Yunzhou, the imperial capital of Zhongjing, or other fairy mountain treasure islands will be the real place for Li Mu to live.

"Master, when you go to Yunzhou this time, the slaves and maidservants will definitely accompany you to take care of you. Sun Honglie will handle the affairs of the family."

Seeing that Li Mu was leaving, Hu Yunniang was naturally reluctant to leave Li Mu.

Even Gu Qingcheng also said: "Brother, I have gone down the mountain to practice, I have no fixed place to live, and I am at ease with the situation. Why don't you go to Yunzhou with you to experience the imperial court's scientific research, which is very interesting."

Li Mu said: "In that case, let's go together."

He thought for a while, and said: "Let Sun Honglie assist Zhang Shihong in Qinghe County. When Qinghe County is almost under governance, he will go to Yunzhou to find me and continue to open a jewelry shop."

Sun Honglie was originally a scholar, and his greatest wish in life was to be a good official that the people liked. Now Zhang Shihong's subordinates are officials, assisting Zhang Shihong to visit the people, understand the suffering of the people, deal with the local ills for many years, and save many people.

One can imagine the joy in my heart when my long-cherished wish is fulfilled for so many years.

Li Mu saw that Sun Honglie was like a duck to water here, so he planned to keep him in Qinghe County, and when Qinghe County was well governed, Sun Honglie would go to Li Mu again.

If he still wants to continue to be an official in Qinghe County, Li Mu won't stop him, just let him make trouble.

He summoned all the people in the courtyard, made some arrangements, and finally decided to let Hu Yunniang take the servant girl Gangdan and a few servants to serve him along the way, while the remaining servant girls continued to live in Qinghe County. Sun Honglie took the place of discipline.

The plan was decided, so Li Mu took out a few pieces of red sun wood and floating wood from the secret treasures he had obtained earlier, took out two black dragon scales, and then used the puppet technique to combine the pure sun fire, and used the space technique, It took three or four days to refine a carriage.

The whole body of this carriage is scarlet red, the axles are made of black iron, the body is made of Chiyang wood, and the wheels are made of dragon scales of poisonous dragons.

He had previously obtained a black dragon's slough from the Black Water Profound Mansion, and he took off a few dragon scales, refining the dragon scales into wheels, and inlaid dragon scales inside the body of the Chiyang wood, such as a car. The roof and the bottom of the car, as well as the four walls of the car, all have dragon scales as shields, forming a formation to guard the interior of the car.

After the whole car was built, Li Mu took out a few pieces of black iron, combined it with red copper and three dragon whiskers, and refined it into a big puppet horse.

Usually, the puppets that Li Mu refines are palm-sized puppets. Once activated with mana, the puppets will suddenly increase in size and transform into various forms.

But as long as the mana is withdrawn, the little puppet will automatically shrink to the size of a palm, because the refining materials are limited, and when the time is up, it will return to its main body.

However, the horse he refined this time had enough materials, and finally refined it into a tall horse.

The horse was as red as burning coals, as tall as a man, extremely handsome, and its flaming mane slowly undulated like waves.

Inside the horse's belly, Li Mu designed a formation to extract energy. As long as the demon pill or spirit pill is put into the formation, the horse will be activated and become a self-aware monster.

Since the carriage uses a lot of good materials, it must be worth the money. There are many runes engraved on this carriage, which reduces the weight of the entire carriage. Coupled with the newly refined BMW, it really smells like a BMW. car feel.
