Arknights is too real, right?

Zhou Liang had no idea what Xia Feng was doing, so he could only follow him around outside the city.

Afterwards, Xia Feng went around from the west gate to the south gate, and repeated the exact same operation to the guards guarding the city, and received the same answer as before.

There are four granaries in Fengyang City, the imperial capital. Three are inside the city and one is very close to Yanyang Town, which is three kilometers south.

The south gate of Fengyang City is huge, and the city walls and gates are also extremely grand. Correspondingly, there are many guards guarding the city.

At this moment, another group of officers and soldiers came out from the city. Different from the gray armor of the city guards, these people wore red armor.

Seeing these people, Zhou Liang whispered beside Xia Feng.

"Sir, they are the Royal Guards of the Imperial City. They should have received the news and came to greet you."

"kindness."

Sure enough, these people walked towards the four of them.

The leader, a middle-aged man, was plain-looking and thin. He was neither wearing an official uniform nor a military uniform. Instead, he wore a dark yellow gown with a high-quality jade pendant hanging around his waist.

Standing in front of Xia Feng, the man bowed slightly.

"Greetings, Governor Xia, I'm the deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Zhao He. Thank you for your hard work coming all the way from Yandong."

Xia Feng also paid tribute.

"The journey is indeed quite far, and it took some time. I would like to trouble Mr. Zhao to go out of the city to meet him."

"No, no, this is what a lower official should do."

This Zhao He's attitude can be said to be neither humble nor arrogant. Even when facing the governor, he did not feel humbled.

In fact, this is normal. The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Yanguo is the highest administrative authority, presided over by Prime Minister Yan Guo personally. Due to different divisions of labor, there are seven lower departments in total.

And this Zhao He is one of the seven deputy ministries, and his official position is really not small.

Of course, although the official was high, it was still inferior to him as a governor. However, because Yandong was a newly established special zone, he himself did not have any background in the interior of Yan country.

Moreover, given Zhao He's official position as Deputy Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is not difficult to know how he became the governor of Yandong. In the officialdom, this is called bad luck, or it can also be called a connected person.

In other words, in Zhao He's eyes, he is just a pawn of international politics.

Xia Feng had no doubt that if it were Zhou Qing, Lin Hong and other governors, Deputy Zhao would not be greeted with a bow.

Of course, he didn't really care about the issue of platooning, as long as there was someone to lead the way.

Afterwards, Xia Feng exchanged a few words with this person, and then asked pretending to be casual.

"Sir Zhao, I heard that the five governors will come to Fengyang City in the near future. What's the matter?"

Zhao He replied vaguely.

"It should be about the border issue of Ursus in the north. I don't know about other subordinates."

"Oh, have the other governors arrived?"

"Governor Zhou and Governor Lin have arrived for many days, and Governor Wei of Longmen also arrived yesterday. Now it's up to you and Governor Kuntu."

Xia Feng knew that the Governor of Kuntu whom Zhao He was talking about was the Governor of the Southwest, Kunturiel. Sure enough, the surname of this guy with a strange name was Kuntu.

It was getting late at this time. After a few brief conversations, Zhao He motioned towards the city.

"Governor Xia, you are tired from traveling all the way, so please let me arrange your bed and food first."

Zhou Liang next to him also suggested.

"Sir, let's go to the city first."

"good."

At this moment, Xia Feng clearly felt the ground beneath his feet trembling slightly.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

Gradually, the roar of iron hoofs grew closer and closer, and within sight, a team of at least more than a hundred people drove over from the southwest.

The horses of this group of cavalry are blood-red and strong, and the horses are covered with metal armor, and the people sitting on them are also dressed in exotic colors.

Even if the leading man is riding on horseback, he can still see his burly figure. A rough estimate is that this man is at least close to two meters tall.

The alien's long horns, red hair, full beard, and a pair of calm but powerful eyes give people the impression of only four words.

Domineering exposed!

The war horse stopped at the gate of the city. The burly man took out the governor's token from his waist, and the guards guarding the city immediately gave way to the city.

Xia Feng stood in the distance and looked at the man carefully.

Obviously, even though he seemed to have come from afar, this person knew the rules of Fengyang City very well, at least better than he did.

At this time, Zhao He next to him explained loudly.

"Governor Xia, that is Governor Kuntu. It seems you guys arrived together."

Xia Feng glanced sideways at Zhao He.

"Why don't you come over and say hello?"

Zhao He looked embarrassed.

"That's not necessary. Governor Quintu has a heroic personality and hates official etiquette. A few years ago, the Ministry of Internal Affairs warmly welcomed him at the city gate and even got a beating from him."

"Oh, that's it."

As the saying goes, if you compare with others, you will die, but if you compare with goods, you will throw them away.

Compared with the domineering governor of the southwest, Quinturiel, Xia Feng's thin figure looked like a refugee fleeing famine, and he even held half a bunch of candied haws in his hand that he had not finished eating just now.

Of course, his appearance will not affect his unshakable status. Even if he is inconspicuous, he is still one of the five governors on an equal footing with this person.

Realizing that someone was looking at him, Quinturiel, who was sitting on horseback, cast his gaze in the direction of Xia Feng.

When he saw Xia Feng's appearance, he was stunned for a moment.

But soon, he seemed to recall who this person was. He must have seen a photo or something.

Just like what Zhao He said, Quinturiel hated the fake politeness in official circles. Sitting on the horse, he just nodded to Xia Feng expressionlessly, which was regarded as a greeting.

In response, Xia Feng smiled and nodded to him.

Then Quinturiel shouted to the guards behind him.

"Go into town, drive!"

Iron hoofs turned and swords turned, and the mighty cavalry drove into Fengyang City, the imperial capital.

It wasn't until the group of people disappeared at the end of the street leading to the city that Xia Feng signaled to Zhao He.

"Master Zhao, let's go in too."

"good."

As the imperial capital of the Yan Kingdom, Fengyang City is not as modern as Longmen, but its economic level is not bad.

Of course, there are many means of transportation such as cars in the city, but according to the traditional etiquette of the Yan Kingdom, Xia Feng still got into the luxurious carriage specially prepared for him.

This kind of carriage is very spacious, including Zhao He, a group of them can sit down. The Royal Guards are guarding the carriage, which looks very impressive.

Since it was his first time to come to the imperial capital, after asking for his opinion, Zhao He would take him for a brief walk around the city to get acquainted with it.

Judging from the street view, this city is very old, and the architectural style has continued the tradition of Yanguo.

Unlike Londinium, Xia Feng felt like he was in a completely different era when he was in Fengyang City.

On the carriage, Zhao He introduced him.

"Governor Xia, look, in front of you is the Yanchuan River that runs through the city. After passing that bridge, on the other side is the location of the Imperial City. This is also the route you need to take to return to life tomorrow."

Xia Feng said in surprise.

"Shouldn't I go to the imperial capital tonight?"

Zhao He quickly explained.

"That's right, because this is your first time coming to Fengyang City after taking office as governor, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs needs to prepare a formal ceremony tomorrow, so tonight, I will arrange your residence in a neighborhood outside the imperial city."

"Oh, I see."

"Yes, this is the rule of the Yan Kingdom. Please understand, Governor Xia."

Xia Feng smiled without any dissatisfaction.

"I understand, I understand. After all, it's just a formality. I understand."

After a brief stroll around the city, I almost finished everything I needed to see.

Later, Zhao He, as his exclusive receptionist, asked him about his accommodation requirements.

"Governor Xia, do you prefer to rest in a lively place or a quiet and elegant place?"

"I'm fine, just be quiet."

"OK."

From beginning to end, Zhao He's attitude was very decent.

The only flaw is obviously this last problem.

It's completely dark now. If rest is the premise, then the two options of liveliness and quiet are simply unnecessary questions.

Moreover, Zhao He also deliberately added the two pretentious words "elegant" after An Jing.

It was obvious that Zhao He deliberately used words to guide him to choose a "quiet" place to live.

Because he chose it himself, even if this residence is "quiet", he probably has nothing to say.
