The Mu Tianlang generals and Du Shu's group went south together. Li Luo thought of Du Shu's hard work, but did not leave until noon. Although Du Shu did not express it clearly, he could still see a little more gratitude in his awe.
.
Maocheng is to the east of Anding City. Everyone took the road south and did not enter Maocheng.
Seven days later, when they arrived in Weifu, Du Shu gradually became familiar with Li Luo. Along the way, he told Li Luo about the folk customs of Yuzhou from time to time. He never evaded any taboos and was very enthusiastic.
When they arrived at Ronghe City in Wei Prefecture, Li Luo and others met another team from Nan Wangfu who came to greet them. This time they were from the Wangfu, and the leader was Song Qiuning, a brother of Nanwang Songya's remaining clan. There were also other people in the group.
Song Wuxia, the leader of the younger generation of the Song family who met Li Luo, was the son of Song Qiuning.
When Wu Xia of the Song Dynasty met Li Luo, he was a close friend of Mu Kuo in those days, and they were quite close to each other intentionally or unintentionally.
Li Luo was also an acquaintance of the same generation, and he had a harmonious conversation with Song Wuxia. He greeted Song Qiuning with the courtesy of a junior, which made Song Qiuning very emotional and shouted at him repeatedly.
Song Qiuning was over forty years old, and he was not very similar to Song Wuxia's handsomeness. On the contrary, he was strong-backed, quite heroic, and a brave man, but he was also resourceful, and his words and deeds were modest and courteous.
Unlike Dushu, who has no barriers of heart, but there is no hint of arrogance and hostility. He highly praises Mu Tianlang in his words. Whether it is sincere or false, he is indeed a general who can stand alone.
His martial arts skills are so unfathomable that even Leng Bing couldn't help but look at him a few more times, with a hint of fighting spirit.
During the chat, I learned that Song Qiuning did not have any fame, but was just helping Song Yayu with some things. However, Guan Zhidushu was still a bit cautious in his politeness, but in fact he was a very important figure in the Nanfu.
After passing Wei Prefecture, you will find Yangnan Prefecture, Yuzhou Prefecture, and Nanwang Mansion was built in Yangnan City, Yangnan Prefecture.
As soon as everyone entered Yangnan Mansion, they met the third group of soldiers from the Nanwang Mansion who came to greet Li Luo. This time, the momentum was quite large. General Dian Xunchang of Yuzhou Dutong personally led more than 300 elite soldiers in the army to form an array.
Wait.
The three greetings were so solemn and solemn that even Li Luo was quite surprised when he saw them.
Dian Xunchang, the governor of Yuzhou, is not confused in his recent years. Just looking at his appearance, he looks feminine, with a white face and no beard, long and narrow eyes, and shallow lips, which seems to be a bit mean and cold.
When they saw Li Luo and others, they also had indifferent expressions, and said hello lightly without smiling. The remaining Mu Tianlang generals did not even want to look at them, and they kept talking in a distant and cold tone.
The Mutianlang generals saw this in their eyes, but smiled to themselves indifferently, and did not take it to heart.
Since Li Luo fell into Yangnan Mansion, everyone's whereabouts were obvious. Everywhere he passed, there would be local officials waiting by the official road early. When they saw Li Luo and others, they bowed respectfully. Naturally, they could not help but sing praises and praises, showing their enthusiasm.
There was a trace of warmth from the ancient road in the greetings and greetings.
It's just that everyone is different, either being polite or perfunctory, but they all abide by the rules, and they respect Prince Dagan very much on the surface. However, they have been in officialdom for a long time, and everyone has a deep understanding of the city.
My dear, seven out of seven falsehoods and three out of three truths only dazzled the Mu Tianlang generals.
Except for Leng Bing and Li Yuanxi who were a little impatient, Li Luo was very clear-headed and greeted everyone one by one without neglecting anyone.
Yangnan Mansion, Yangnan City.
Yangnan City was unknown decades ago. Since the Song family's palace was located here, within ten years it has become the largest city in Nanfu.
The crowd gathered around Li Luo and his entourage and arrived in front of Yangnan City. In a daze, the Mu Tianlang generals had an illusion, just like the Shuoxi City back then.
The city walls are towering and heavily guarded. Among all the prefectures that Dagan Tiannan has passed through, there is no such majestic and solemn city.
Perhaps something special is that Yangnan City leads a waterway into the city, and you are inside before you know it. After entering the city, you realize that the waterway is fifty feet wide and bottomless. A boat can travel on it, which is even deeper than riding a horse.
A little faster.
The roads in the city are all paved with bluestones and are very smooth. The pavilions and residences are in order. There are three bridges connecting the south and north of the city, just for unobstructed traffic. There are buildings in the water, flowers outside the buildings, surrounded by green shade, flying eaves, and soft water.
, how beautiful and majestic it is.
At only the first glance, the city, water, buildings, red flowers, green leaves, boats, and pedestrians seemed like meticulous paintings painstakingly created by a Taoist master. Everywhere revealed a bit of novelty, as bright as the morning sun playing with dew.
He has never been frivolous. From this one city alone, he knew that the Song family's current reputation was not a result of luck.
Ten steps into the city, before the Mu Tianlang generals could recover their shock, they heard a hearty laugh coming from in front of the city gate: "The general has come a long way, and I, the king, missed the opportunity to welcome him from afar. It's a sin, a sin."
Everyone looked up and saw dozens of people standing in the middle of the city gate. One person in the lead was wearing royal robes, with a golden dragon pattern and surrounded by auspicious clouds. He stood casually among the crowd, making people fixate on him at a glance.
This royal robe, which showed nobility, actually weakened this person's momentum a bit. His phoenix eyes were not angry, but he was more majestic and dignified.
No need to take a closer look at the other side, but these eyes seem to have the ability to penetrate people's hearts. They seem to be able to see everything in front of this person without leaving any shadow. They are gentle and elegant, clear but not sharp. When they have no choice, they will give birth to admiration.
It means that it is the Southern King Song Yayu.
Li Luo turned over and dismounted, and all the generals followed him. Li Luo and Yan smiled and said: "The prince has come personally to defeat Li Luo. Li Luo has met King Nan."
After saying that, he bowed respectfully. No matter whether he would fight on the battlefield in the future or not, just because Song Yayu was able to manage Nanfu to such an extent that the people could live and work in peace and contentment, he deserved this courtesy from Li Luo.
Song Yayu took a step forward, held his hands up, and said loudly: "General, there is no need to be polite. You and I are officials in the same dynasty, and we only met today. It's a pity that it has been all these years. Haha, with the good wine, you are so prosperous, General."
, please." After saying that, he turned slightly to make way, signaling Li Luo to go first.
Song Yayu came on foot to show his respect. Li Luo thanked him with a smile and let Song Yayu's family go first. As the saying goes, one should do as the Romans do. Song Yayu laughed loudly and walked out carefree.
The streets in the city were already lined with people from the city, including scholars, farmers, merchants, talented men and beauties, knights and prodigal sons, rubbing shoulders and looking at each other, all looking at Song Yayu.
He only glanced at Li Luo twice, mostly just out of curiosity, but also full of disgust and hatred. It was evident that the Da Gan court was rarely popular, even when Li Luo was making a name for himself in the Western Regions.
Li Luo was calm and composed. There were huge crowds of people along the way, and they all shouted the title of King of Nan. They were extremely pious. In Nan Mansion, Song Yayu's reputation was great, far above that of the Dagan royal family. Song Yayu expressed his thanks with a smile, and was approachable.
He never looked arrogant.
In such chaos, everyone in Nanfu was calm and unhurried, not afraid of anyone who wanted to do something wrong. Li Luofang had settled the matter of Guiyang Prefecture, but Song Yayu didn't seem to care about it. When he entered Yangnan City, he was there.
