"As far as I know, you are quite effective around Fusu, which is good."
"good!"
Jiangnan, Nanchang City, Governor's Mansion.
As the rewards from the imperial brother fell, many people from all over the Xia Dynasty came to give gifts, and they were all heavy gifts, and it was hard for me to refuse them.
Moreover, it seems that in these years, except for Xianyang Palace, I have not given gifts to anyone else, but now those people are here to give gifts.
The important official of the temple court in Xianyang, Cai Ze, the newly established king, was so old that he sent his retainers to bring three carts of gifts.
Li Si also sent his youngest son to deliver gifts, also carrying three cars.
The same goes for Wang Wan.
The same goes for Feng Quji.
Even Meng Tian, who was far away in Jiuyuan, sent several batches of foals and some special products.
Li Xin from Longxi also sent a lot of things.
Wang Ben also sent many things.
…
Now, Fusu’s gift has also arrived?
Since they were sent to me, I accepted them all. Anyway, I also got a gift in return, which was some elixirs I refined, as well as porcelain fired by Yan Ling himself.
A return gift is definitely enough.
Even gifts worth more than they deserve.
Give gifts!
In the past, when Lord Shang carried out his political reform, gift-giving was prohibited by Qin law, but it has been gradually relaxed over the past few decades.
Today, Fusudu from Sishui County sent people here.
Xiao He!
This name is not unfamiliar to me.
The original long river of time still left traces, but now...she is under Fusu's command, and is still valued by Fusu.
After all, he is a talented person.
Putting his hands on his back, he walked around the pavilion.
Looking at Xiao He who was not far away, he was not too young judging from his age, at least older than himself. He was wearing a black county official's uniform, and his movements and stillness were in line with etiquette.
"It will be an honor to have your name among the princes and princes."
"This time Xiao He was ordered to come here to congratulate the prince and the prince on the birth of the prince and the two county heads. The bloodline of the prince and prince has been passed down and the glory has been inherited."
"Secondly, my lord has ordered me to let my descendants meet Lord Changnan and the two county heads, as a sign of affection for the whole clan."
Starting from Peixian County, under the protection of the county guards, we crossed the Huai River and the Jiang River all the way to Nanchang, which was an eye-opener.
It was my first time to come to the land of Jiangnan. I thought it would be like the rumored wild Baiyue land.
Who would have thought that everything seems to have changed a lot.
The main roads run parallel to each other, villages and cities stand tall, there are many prosperous places, and all kinds of industries are established, but the number of people... is slightly less.
Especially Nanchang City!
Although the city was only established a few years ago, it was more bustling than any other city in Sishui County. Xiao He could be sure of this.
Entering from outside Nanchang City, you can see the grand scene even more.
Now, An Ran enters the mansion of the Duke and is even more excited to see the Duke. The person in front of him... In the entire empire, the power is lower than that of one person and higher than that of ten thousand people.
Your Excellency, when planning big things in the future, you will definitely need the support of the Duke and Lord. It seems... My Lord, I have a good relationship with this Lord and Commander.
He cupped his hands and bowed deeply, not daring to look directly at the prince and express his intention to come.
"Fusu is so determined that he has traveled thousands of miles to send you here."
"Come and take a seat and tell me about the situation in Surabaya County. I often live in the south of the Yangtze River and don't know much about the situation in the Central Plains."
"Xue'er, bring Ning'er and the other three."
Zhou Qing nodded, knowing what Fusu was thinking.
Waving his hands, he turned around and took a seat behind a table in the pavilion, and ordered Xue'er who was waiting for him. In the past few days, there have been many people coming and going in the mansion, and Yan Ling and the others have all stayed in the side hall.
Xueer moved her delicate hands lightly and disappeared with each step.
"This..., the prince, is of low rank, I am afraid it would be rude."
"If the princes and princes have any questions, I will answer them all."
Xiao He was so frightened that his already bent body bent even further.
"I was born in the Taoist Heavenly Sect, and I have never paid much attention to etiquette."
"Since you are here on Fusu's behalf, you are qualified."
Zhou Qing smiled hoarsely, and when he raised his hand, a soft force lifted Xiao He up. Then, facing Xiao He's surprised look, he pointed to a location in the pavilion.
"..."
"Here!"
Xiao He bowed deeply again.
After a few breaths, he slowly approached and took a seat.
"Are you from Peixian County?"
"You can taste the snacks and fruits on the table as you like without any restrictions."
He raised his hand and took down a grape from the table in front of him. He cultivated it himself. It contains grape varieties from the Western Regions. With the initial power of Xuan Ni, the image of autumn orchids grew on the ground.
Grapes grow very quickly.
The taste is okay.
"Here!"
"Hui Junhou, I am from the small town of Fengyi on the west side of Peixian County. I was educated in Peixian County, so I stayed in Peixian County."
"Until now."
Xiao He did not dare to be rude. The fruits and snacks on the table were indeed sweet and fragrant. Although he wanted to move, he did not dare to make any move.
I came here on behalf of your lord.
Hearing the words of the prince, although it was strange, he still agreed.
"Pei County!"
“Fengyi small town!”
"Do you know Liu Ji?"
Zhou Qing had heard of the names of these two cities when he recited them, and he knew all the cities in the counties of Xia.
Unless the city was recently built.
Thinking of something interesting, I asked again.
"Liu Ji?"
"This... the prince knows about Liu Ji?"
"I know Liu Ji, but I don't know him very well. He is acquainted with a friend of mine, and he is now an official in Peixian County Prison."
"Because I know some words, I will be appreciated."
Xiao He's heart suddenly trembled.
Liu Ji!
I have heard of this life myself and met him at a banquet invited by Cao Shen. This man... acted unruly and spoke strangely.
There is some talent and learning.
Looking at it with his own eyes, he should have other plans. Otherwise, he would not be planning anything in the county jail. Otherwise, it would be easier to go directly to the county government.
Of course, it is also possible that it is more convenient to be in the county jail because of Cao Shen.
Does the prince also know this person?
How strange!
Weird!
How could the prince know about him?
"He spent some time in Daliang City of Wei State before. I also went to Daliang City back then and got to know some people and things."
"I'm just asking casually."
"Fusu hasn't encountered any problems recently, has he?"
The movement of heaven is constant, and it does not exist for Yao, nor does it perish for Jie.
road!
Hengdao!
Unfair!
Everything is in the evolution of Tao. From the moment I came here, everything has changed, and everything must change, right?
Liu Ji!
Xiao He!
…
There are still some people whom Zhou Qing doesn't care about.
Under the law of heaven, no one is unique, no one is special, only an era creates some people.
Rather than some people creating some eras.
So, those people are not important.
Xiao He is now at Fusu's side.
Some people in Chu State are not in serious trouble.
It is absolutely impossible to destroy an extremely majestic empire with external force. Only internal problems are the most fatal.
The royal brother is now at his peak, and he doesn't need to worry about anything.
In another ten or twenty years, I will be completely relaxed. At that time, if my own cultivation level is not the highest state of integrating all things, I think it is only one step away.
Hope I can get over it.
"My lord is the county magistrate. Everything goes well and there is no serious problem."
Xiao He didn't ask any more questions.
As for adults, have you encountered any problems?
It was there before, but not now. Everything is proceeding step by step. The farmers have settled the matter in Sishui County, and there will be no problem.
"As long as everything goes well."
"I think His Majesty the First Emperor will also be satisfied."
"Well, Ning'er and the others are here."
smoothly?
Judging from the news I have received, it is indeed going smoothly at the moment, but it depends on the final result. Given the situation in Surabaya County, it seems a bit difficult to make it go smoothly from beginning to end.
As the words fell, a baby stroller floated out from the side hall not far from the pavilion, a few inches off the ground. With Xue'er's force sweeping beside it, Ning'er and the three little guys were sitting in it, which was very interesting.
"Your Majesty!"
Xiao He quickly stood up.
The prince's prince is the Lord of Changnan, and he is extremely noble when he is born. He will inherit the title of prince in the future, and he will not be killed for five generations.
Even most of the princes of His Majesty the First Emperor are hard to compare with.
The other two county heads are also extraordinary clan girls.
"Let them come out and bathe in the breath of the sun."
After a few breaths, Xueer had already dropped the three strollers in the pavilion and lined them up side by side. As soon as they stopped, the three little guys wanted to sit up and get up dishonestly.
Or even stand up?
Small arms and legs, big dreams.
Zhou Qing pointed his finger, and a series of invisible restrictions fell on the stroller.
"I've met Mr. Changnan!"
"I've met the Lord of Lanling County!"
"I've met the Lord Wanping County!"
Xiao He had already approached and bowed deeply.
"Eaaah!"
"Eaaah!"
"..."
Oncoming are the tender and crisp sounds of babies.
"Xue'er, watch the tea!"
"Xiao He, sit down!"
"Xiao He, how about you having an heir?"
This person knows the rules and etiquette very well. Such a person may seem stupid, but in fact, he is cautious in doing things and rarely makes mistakes.
I don’t know if this person can shine next to Fusu.
I hope he can grow up.
Now that he is staying with Fusu, everything depends on Fusu.
"Here!"
"Go back to the county, I have a son for now!"
Xiao He returned to his seat and continued the etiquette.
Xue'er walked to a corner of the pavilion, looked at the spring water that was not yet boiling on the small stove, dropped her palm, and her internal energy rolled. After three breaths, clouds of mist rose.
Wisps of hot air rise into the pot.
Just right for making tea.
Xiao He!
This man was sent by Master Fusu, who seemed to treat him differently. If it were said that it was all because of Master Fusu, it was not entirely true.
That’s all, don’t think too much about it.
Xue'er shook her head and made tea carefully.
…
…
"Sir, no one will come again next time, right?"
In the middle of the period, with the departure of Xiao He from Surabaya, the courtyard became lively again, and Yan Lingji still felt comfortable in the courtyard.
It is during this period that there is almost no time before noon.
Those people all come to give gifts, although it is a good thing, after all... one or two is quite new, but now it is a bit too much.
Very boring.
I glanced at the three iron-eating beasts lying down in front of me. They were all newly-born iron-eating beasts. It was good for Ning'er and the three little ones to play with.
It just...needs some good conditioning.
"There should be no more."
Zhou Qing was teasing Ning'er and the three little ones, and not many were qualified to come.
It's just that I'm in the south of the Yangtze River, which is a bit far away. Therefore, it will probably take ten days and a half to really end it.
Xiao He left him to have a meal in his mansion and then left.
"Zhao Tuo from Kuaiji hasn't come yet."
"I guess he should be on the way."
Bai Qianhong was also teasing the child, standing next to the stroller, holding a delicate and small cowhide rattle in her hand, turning it slowly, making a constant sound.
Zhao Tuo.
The young master personally guided and trained him, so he is quite worthy of it. Over the years, he has experienced many things and made many achievements, so he is considered to be in a high position.
It’s just that I’m still young and I need to continue to experience and practice.
According to what the young master said, if you are now experiencing experience in Kuaiji County and then taking charge of the affairs of a county, you can be of great use in a few years.
Bai Qianhong thinks it's pretty good.
I haven't seen him for a while.
"Zhao Tuo!"
"He's making a lot of noise in Kuaiji."
Zhou Qing smiled.
Kuaiji County was also under the jurisdiction of Jiangnan, and he knew everything about it. Zhao Tuo assisted the governor of Kuaiji County in reorganizing Kuaiji, and his methods were very ruthless.
It pulled out a lot of the remaining power of the Chu State that was originally entrenched in it, and also suppressed a lot of the power of the Xiang family, and a lot of blood flowed.
"In the land of Kuaiji, the forces are complex."
"Zhao Tuo has been assassinated many times. Fortunately, he has practiced well and has become a god with elixirs!"
There was naturally a lot of commotion, and hundreds of people had died at the hands of Zhao Tuo in the past few years.
For Zhao Tuo's safety, I specially took out the elixir from the young master and gave it to him. Otherwise, with the power of those people, it would be very difficult for Zhao Tuo.
"As long as it's okay, there is a big gain between life and death."
"What are Yun Shu and the others sorting out?"
Raising his hand in the void, crystal clear water droplets were formed, imprisoned by the mysterious force, and allowed to be played with, falling in front of Ning'er, directly arousing the little guy's interest.
"Eaaah!"
"..."
The little guy was very excited. He grabbed the water drops with both hands and filled his mouth. He really wanted to eat everything.
"Master, didn't you say that when Ning'er and the others are one month old, they will go to Xianyang, and there are only a few days left."
"Sister Yunshu and the others are sorting out the items used on Ning'er Road and those used in Xianyang."
Xueer responded next to her, since the young master was teasing Ning'er, she... couldn't rest either. Sister Yanling was taking care of the iron-eating beast, and she had to take care of Ying'er.
I'm really busy.
"It's really early for you!"
"Just bring some with you. Remember the size of your clothes. The young master can make a lot of them in one night."
Zhou Qing felt that Yun Shu and the others were working in vain.
Even if they go to Xianyang, they won't be able to stay there for long. As for Ning'er and the others, it's enough to prepare whatever they want.
There is no need to go so far in advance.
"Parrots sing their breath!"
"Sir, Yingge and Moya are back. Could it be that the mission was accomplished?"
Bai Qianhong handed the rattle in her hand to her daughter. She sensed it and looked outside the mansion. The aura of the two entrance halls was very obvious.
It is undoubtedly their fault.
In the last document, Yingge and the others said that they had found the whereabouts of Duke Nan of Chu. In this case, it was time to put an end to it.
"Did Duke Chu Nan solve it?"
Xueer was also surprised.
"solve?"
"Not yet, I'm afraid."
Purple light surged in the depths of Zhou Qing's eyes, and mysterious textures rose and fell. Everything had been deduced, and Chu Nan Gong... was not dead yet.
"not dead?"
"How is it possible? The Eagle Sword is with Yingge and the others, plus the "Nine Palace Escape Technique", Chu Nan Gong cannot escape no matter what."
not dead?
Since the young master said that Chu Nan Gong is not dead, I am afraid that he is really not alive.
But...it makes no sense at all.
With the confidence of Mo Ya and the three of them, even if Chu Nan Gong is now in the realm of one body with the void, there is only one way to die.
Anyone help?
Zhu Xia Jian... there is really no one who has this ability.
"Just ask and you'll find out."
"Chu Nan Gong!"
"Life is really great!"
Zhou Qing spoke in a low voice... He himself was also curious as to why Mo Crow and the others couldn't deal with Chu Nan Gong. That old man... had always been very lucky!
