Before meeting Mu Xiaojiu, Ye Di never dreamed that one day he would be able to become a prefect. Speaking of which, now, he is probably the youngest prefect of the Qing Dynasty.

At the beginning, when he first became a master, in fact, he was just trying to protect his sister and himself. For a child from a poor family like him, he is not interested in such things as "helping the world" and "cherishing the common people", let alone the ability.

What's more, the land he lives in is from the Qing Dynasty, and he is from the Central Plains.

Later, war broke out between the Qing Dynasty and the Central Plains, and the consequences of the war implicated ordinary people. The previous prefect fell in love with Ye Xiao, but used Ye Di's identity as a Central Plains person to coerce the two. Ye Di originally wanted to stab the previous prefect to death, and then absconded with Ye Xiao. But Ye Xiao understood that this was impossible, so he made his own decision and became the prefect's concubine.

In those two days, Ye Xiao was just in time for the day of Tianqi, and the previous prefect who was in a good mood did not force it. In his opinion, Ye Xiao was already a piece of meat in his mouth, so he couldn't run, so what was there to hurry? Not only that, but he also forged Ye Di's identity and turned Ye Di into a "Qing person".

It's just that the previous prefect never dreamed that on the fourth day when he married Ye Xiao, Mu Xiaojiu appeared in the sky, breaking all his vain illusions.

Later, because of Mu Xiaojiu, Ye Xiao got out of the sea of bitterness, and Ye Di became Mu Xiaojiu's subordinate, and for various reasons, he became the acting prefect.

I have to say that Ye Xiao is indeed a capable person. On the one hand, he grew up as a pauper, so he knows how to understand the suffering of the people; On the other hand, he followed the previous prefect for several years, and he also knew the twists and turns in the officialdom, and he adapted to it.

If you change someone, after a while, maybe you will slowly go to a certain extreme, like most officials: either you will be honest and honest, love the people like children, and offend a group of officials; Either fish in troubled waters, degenerate, and become a corrupt official.

But Mu Xiaojiu's existence allowed Ye Di to maintain his heart.

First of all, Ye Di himself is also a strong-willed person, and secondly, Mu Xiaojiu's fame and heavy behavior, as well as the weakened version of the bone acupuncture that has been weakening, but still makes him feel some pain, also makes him dare not have any delusions.

He didn't dare to fall too far to the people, because in that case, he would not be able to complete the task of "climbing up as much as possible" left by Mu Xiaojiu. He didn't dare to become an unscrupulous evil official who climbed up, because he didn't know if Mu Xiaojiu would slash his neck with a knife one day in the future.

But what people never expected was that after a period of time, he found that he was actually the most perfect him. In this state, he can give full play to himself, and with his own ability, he has also succeeded in becoming a real good official.

Even, this also made him change from a "acting prefect" to a real prefect.

He was Mu Xiaojiu's first steel nail in the Qing Dynasty.

Mu Xiaojiu is in the territory of the Qing Dynasty, there are a total of two steel nails, one is Ye Di, and the other is a person who wants to leave the Qing Dynasty, but in the end stays.

Xiao Ling'er is Mu Xiaojiu's second steel nail.

If what Ye Di needs to do is to keep climbing up and have more and more right to speak. Then what Xiao Ling'er represents is a chain that connects Ye Di to the Central Plains.

Not only that, Ye Di, as a prefect, is good to the people, but it is also a very strange thing to stay in the people's pile every day. Ye Di can know more about high-level things, but Xiao Ling'er is more convenient to inquire about low-level things.

And sometimes, the gossip at the bottom is often more well-informed.

Ye Di didn't have direct contact with Mu Xiaojiu, and he couldn't get in touch either. Even, Ye Di couldn't contact anyone at all, because it was too dangerous. But the existence of Xiao Ling'er just solves this problem. It can be said that the only contact between Ye Di and Mu Xiaojiu is Xiao Ling'er.

However, Xiao Ling'er can't directly contact Mu Xiaojiu, and similarly, she can't contact Mu Xiaojiu, who is erratic. So Xiao Ling'er's contact person is Mu Xiaojiu's subordinate.

Mu Xiaojiu to Mu Qian, Mu Qian to Xiao Ling'er, Xiao Ling'er to Ye Di.

This is a line, the safest and safest line.

Xiao Ling'er came over today to convey instructions. It was from Mu Xiaojiu, and it was a letter that came from Mu Xiaojiu when he was not separated from Hu Xiaoxian.

"Brother Ye, it's time." Xiao Ling'er didn't shy away from anything, although Ye Xiao and Yun Feibai didn't know the specific things, they knew the relationship between these two people and Mu Xiaojiu. Ye Xiao, as Ye Di's younger sister, has seen Mu Xiaojiu again, so naturally there is no need to say much. As for Yun Feibai, long before Mu Xiaojiu came, he had an excellent relationship with Ye Di. When Ye Di wanted to kill the former prefect who coveted Ye Xiao, he still had to help. And now, he is the target of Ye Di, and Ye Di is trying to pull him into his camp.

"Is it time?" Ye Di was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slightly, "I've been waiting for a long time, this day has finally come." Is everything still going according to plan? ”

"Well, Qian Bo said, Childe's side is going well, there are no big variables, let's just do it as agreed before." Xiao Ling'er said very relaxedly.

Ye Di smiled reassuringly, "That's good, since Childe has high hopes for me, I naturally can't let him down." Tomorrow morning, let's get started. ”

As he spoke, Ye Di turned his head and looked at Yun Feibai, "Yun Feibai, let me ask you one last time, can you help me?" I don't want to tie you up with national righteousness, I just want to know, do you want to help me with this? Do you want to be on my side? ”

"What's the use of you just talking about moving me?" Yun Feibai's face was distressed, "Although I have a good time with those people in the army, you also know that without Lao Liu, I ......"

"No need for Lao Liu!" Ye Di seemed to see hope, "What you need to do is actually very simple, do you want to be crooked?" ”

Yun Feibai was stunned for a moment, "Huh? Am I wrong? Are you not going to rebel? But if you don't rebel, how can you save Mu Xiaojiu? ”

"Rebellion?" Ye Di sighed, "Feibai, you're underestimating me." To tell you the truth, this time, all the plans for this side of the action are made by me, and I am fully responsible. Do you think I'd take such a big risk and play such crazy things? ”
