Nowadays, all positions are full, whether in counties or prefectures.

He had heard about it at the county government office.

With the imperial examinations approaching, a new batch of officials will inevitably enter the civil service. As new officials arrive in the capital, a new batch of local officials will also be replaced.

The court has explicitly stated that forming cliques and engaging in corrupt practices is a capital offense, but some people still want to replace their disobedient subordinates with obedient ones.

Newly appointed officials, in order to establish themselves, will inevitably need to find a reliable veteran official.

The purge of local officials also became an indispensable part of this process.

During this period, there were often many people who reported their superiors, many who were dissatisfied with their superiors, and some who even wanted to replace them.

Chen Yongnian paused slightly upon thinking of this.

He was not shocked by the situation within the Yunhe County government office, but by Wan Qiqi's enlightenment.

Although the other party lived in a small town, he had extensive knowledge of politics and even a very clear understanding of it.

Chen Yongnian felt that Wan Qiqi wanted to talk about the snow lotus on the summit of the snow mountain, which was out of reach, but he wanted to climb up and stand shoulder to shoulder with the snow lotus.

Wan Qiqi didn't continue, but tilted her head and said, "Go to sleep early. You need to go to the county government early tomorrow. They can't ride horses like you."

She saw Chen Yongnian's horse and could imagine how handsome he must look riding it now.

"Okay." Chen Yongnian smiled faintly.

As night fell, the two embraced and slept.

As dawn broke, the three people heading to Yunhe County set off.

Wan Qiqi also got up.

She followed them all the way to the town gate, wrapped in a thick coat, and only returned with Wu Gousheng after they had disappeared.

Even though it was still early, many townspeople were already up on the streets, and some were even gossiping early in the morning.

"Have you heard? The other day, the young master of the Feng family was drinking with some people and fell into the pond!"

"It's been several days already, the news has spread far and wide, how could anyone not know?"

Wan Qiqi wanted to say that she didn't know, but she was happy to listen to this gossip.

"It seems that Young Master Feng fell ill after falling into the water, and several doctors have been called in."

"Isn't that right? In the end, it was still Doctor Ge who cured him!"

Wan Qiqi thought to herself, no wonder she hadn't seen Feng Gan since he drank with Tang Qiwen that day, he must be sick!
