Yang Peng arranged a room for Lin Xu to rest temporarily, and he immediately went to report to Liu Mingju.
Not long after, Yang Peng rushed back and said excitedly: "Sir, the Governor has invited me, and a banquet has been arranged to welcome you! The Governor has many things to do, even if people from the palace come, it may not be possible
I will accompany you in person! However, the Governor is personally hosting a banquet for you tonight, which shows that the Governor definitely favors you!"
"Haha, thank you very much, Lord Governor, for looking up to me."
Lin Xu smiled faintly and stood up: "Lead the way!"
In the banquet room.
When Lin Xu walked in, he saw an old man with gray beard and hair, wearing a blue robe, sitting on the Taishi chair drinking tea.
This old man was not very tall, his clothes were not very luxurious, and there were no soldiers standing beside him. He just sat there quietly, with his eyelids drooped. He didn't know whether he was asleep or thinking about something.
However, this person exudes an aura of calmness and authority!
Most people would never dare to look directly in front of this person!
Even Lin Xu, when he walked into this room and looked at the old man, felt a strong pressure coming towards him!
He knows that this is the momentum that the superiors have gradually developed after years of subtle influence!
Ordinary people can't pretend even if they want to!
If nothing else happens, this old man must be the number one figure in the Southeast - Liu Mingju!
Sure enough, Yang Peng walked forward quickly, bowed and said, "Mr. Governor, Mr. Lin is here."
Liu Mingju slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Xu.
Judging from Liu Mingju's age, he should be over fifty. Even if his eyes are not dim, his eyesight should not be very sharp.
However, at this moment, Lin Xu felt as if he was being stared at by a searchlight!
This is a mental deterrent!
Lin Xu couldn't help but secretly lamented that Liu Mingju's momentum was so powerful!
The number one person in the Southeast really deserves his reputation!
If it were ordinary people standing in front of the Governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, even if they were not trembling, they would definitely be very nervous and fall to their knees directly.
But Lin Xu was not an ordinary person after all, and he also hated the ceremony of kneeling down, so he just made a scholarly salute and called out: "Your Majesty the Governor."
This is not considered rude, because according to the rules of the Daning Dynasty, as long as you are naturalized in the county school, you will be regarded as a disciple of the emperor. Even if you have not passed the examination as a scholar, you can still enjoy some "privileges", one of which is to meet the official
There is no need to kneel down and worship.
However, even though there are such rules, how can ordinary scholars dare not to kneel down when they see a feudal official like Liu Mingju?
There is probably only one person like Lin Xu!
Liu Mingju didn't care. There was a smile on his face. He actually stood up and said politely: "Mr. Lin, you have worked hard all the way. Please sit down and have a cup of tea first. The banquet has been prepared. I will tell you later."
Take care of the wind and wash away the dust for your husband."
His tone is calm and powerful, and his articulation is clear and pleasant. Not only is he not overbearing, but he has a feeling of spring breeze.
This made Lin Xu have a strong liking for him.
"Thank you, Lord Governor."
Lin Xu cupped his hands and sat down generously under Liu Mingju, without any restraint.
