Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Because there are express regulations in post houses in various places, they only accept officials from the imperial court in the past, and merchants who are not officials of the imperial court are not accepted.

This is not only to make it easier for officials to go out on business or travel long distances to visit their relatives, but also to improve the welfare of officials.

And usually the posthouses under the state government are more high-end and upscale compared to inns, and there is hot water supply even for taking a bath at night.

This is also the real reason why Guo Ye did not invest in an inn to stay in a post house.

Think about it, after a day of driving, if you can take a hot bath to soak your feet, how comfortable and wonderful it is.

Soon, the posthouse officials led dozens of postmen out of the gate carrying lanterns, and led Guo Ye, his wife and a group of followers into the posthouse respectfully.

You know, Guo Ye is the governor of Yangzhou, and this is a serious governor of a high-ranking state, half a rank higher than their Yizhou governor.

Not only that, Guo Ye is also a veritable Founding Marquis, his food town is in Yizhou, and the reputation of Yizhou Marquis Guo Ye is no stranger in Yizhou Mansion.

The most important thing is that Guo Ye is their family name in Yizhou. The word Guo Ye in Longxi was very famous at the beginning.

It is the only one in Yizhou who can produce such a governor of a high-class state and county, and can produce such a Marquis.

Whether it is the small officials in the post house or dozens of post soldiers, they are all native Yizhou people.

It is their supreme honor to have such a glorious fellow countryman as Guo Ye, and Guo Ye can stay in the post house, and it is exactly the same honor.

After the post house official welcomed Guo Ye and his party into the post house affectionately, he gave Guo Ye and his wife a first-class room facing south in the post house.

After Guo Ye exchanged pleasantries with the little official, he sent him away.

After a while, several postmen came into the room with buckets of hot water, and they found some maids from nowhere, saying that they were going to serve Yizhou Hou and Mrs. Hou Ye to take a bath and change clothes.

As Wu Xiuxiu's wife is a noble husband, she is naturally happy to enjoy such courteous treatment, and she agrees in every possible way.

Guo Ye also secretly sighed that power and status are really good things, and he can be regarded as a guest of honor wherever he goes.I think back when I was a small yamen servant, who the hell cared about my life.

But in the end he sent those maids away, because firstly, he was not used to stripping cleanly in front of these strange women; secondly, he also wanted to have a mandarin duck bath with Xiuxiu.

After the maids had all gone out, he personally closed the door, poured hot water, and prepared to act cute and pity, and begged Wu Xiuxiu to let her take a mandarin duck bath with him.

But who would have thought that a discordant voice sounded from outside the room, duk duk duk...

After the knock on the door, someone shouted from outside the room: "Your Majesty has disturbed the Marquis of Yizhou abruptly, and our Lord of Yizhou came here to pay a special visit."

The governor of Yizhou naturally refers to the governor of Yizhou.

Guo Ye realized that the person who shouted was the affectionate postman just now, but he didn't know the governor of Yizhou. He only remembered that bastard Lu Chengqing had sat in this position before, and now this newcomer from Yizhou As for the governor, no one has even heard of it.

Besides, it was too late and his body was too tired, so he also wanted to have a mandarin duck bath with Xiuxiu earlier, and then go to bed early.

Immediately, he rushed out of the door and refused very shamelessly: "It's too late, tell your Lord Inspector, I'm tired and have already gone to bed, see you tomorrow!"

"Uh……"

The posthouse official didn't expect Guo Ye to be so disrespectful, he was choked up and didn't know how to answer.

Unexpectedly, a man's voice suddenly sounded from outside the door: "Master Guo, is it possible that an old friend is visiting, and you don't even give this little face?"

Guo Ye was annoyed at this moment, and blurted out: "I know who the hell are you? Who are you... Hey, this voice sounds familiar. Could it be that you are Mr. Zhao Feixuan, governor of Ruzhou?"

The man outside the door first smiled wildly, and then replied one after another: "Hehe, it's Mr. Zhao. It's a coincidence that Zhao was transferred to Yizhou and Mr. Guo went back to his hometown to visit his relatives. It's a coincidence , What a coincidence. Mr. Guo, it’s not the way to welcome guests behind closed doors, so please show yourself to see them!”

When Guo Ye heard the other party's acknowledgment of his identity, he thought about Zhao Feixuan rapidly, but he was really puzzled, didn't Zhao Feixuan work in Anzhou?Why did he suddenly come to Yizhou in the middle of Shu?It's really strange.

Suddenly, he remembered that Zhao Feixuan's wives, Huiniang and Zhenniang, were still sisters. In this way, he and Zhao Feixuan became brothers-in-law.

Thinking of the little things he had with his aunt Huiniang in Ruzhou back then, his heart moved for no reason, and as he walked to the door and opened the door, he couldn't help blurting out and asked: "Inspector Zhao, I won't be here for a while, how about your wife?" Did you ever travel to Yizhou with you?"

Chapter 808 Night talk about Zhao Feixuan

In the middle of the night, when someone asks where his wife is today, only Guo Ye, who has done a good job, can ask.

But fortunately, Zhao Feixuan didn't know what happened between Huiniang and Guo Ye back then, and mistakenly thought that Guo Ye was asking because of the fact that Zhenniang and Huiniang were sisters.

Immediately, he smiled and replied to Guo Ye: "Marry a chicken and follow the chicken, marry a dog and follow the dog, marry a monkey and go all over the mountains, hehe, Huiniang is the wife of someone Zhao, so naturally she moved here with me." The state is gone. Officials like us who have been sent to other places are naturally inferior to those in Beijing. For the first three years, they were still officials in the north, and maybe they were transferred to southern Xinjiang in the next three years. They have long been used to living in no fixed place. Hehe , it’s just that the family members, wives and children are suffering.”

Guo Ye let out a cry, and his heart thumped. He was very impressed with this aunt. Compared with Zhenniang's soft and well-behaved, Huiniang seemed a bit hot and beautiful.

Seeing that Guo Ye was silent, Zhao Feixuan added: "However, Zhao is now able to become the governor of Yizhou. My wife and daughter Yue'er are very happy. Because the younger sister Wanzhen is now a member of your Guo family, And now that they are raising babies in their hometown in Longxi, the two sisters can often get together, which can be regarded as all the regrets of my wife Hui Niang."

When Guo Ye heard Zhao Feixuan mentioning this, he also responded with a smile: "That's true, the sisters have been separated for so many years, and they can reunite later, and now they can live next to each other. I really have to sigh the mystery of fate. So Speaking of which, Governor Zhao, you and I are still brother-in-law, so Guo should call you brother-in-law."

"Hahaha……"

Zhao Feixuan beamed with joy, repeatedly waving his hands modestly, not daring to dare.

Suddenly, Zhao Feixuan realized that he and Guo Ye were standing and talking, and one was inside the door, the other was outside the door, and Guo Ye's female relatives lived in the room inside the door, which was a bit out of order in the middle of the night.

Immediately, he burst into laughter, and said to Guo Ye in a low voice: "Master Guo, how about we move to another place to talk? It will be inconvenient if you disturb Madam."

He didn't call Guo Ye "brother-in-law", he still called him in a formal way, obviously he didn't dare to hold Guo Ye in front of him.

That's right, although both of them are governors, but Guo Ye is the governor of a high-level state and county, and his gold content is definitely more than that of Yizhou governor.Moreover, Guo Ye is now not only the title of Founding Marquis, but also when he is in full swing.Even if people are thousands of miles away in the middle of Sichuan, as long as they play with a shit stick, they will still muddy the water in Chang'an Chaotang.

Compared with him, Zhao Feixuan, the governor, seems a bit shabby and worthless...

Guo Ye naturally understood Zhao Feixuan's thoughts, but he didn't say anything to avoid embarrassment. He looked at Zhao Feixuan's posture that he would not give up if he didn't chat with himself for a while tonight. It seemed that it was impossible to go to bed early.

Immediately, he nodded and said yes, let Zhao Feixuan wait for a while, then turned around and entered the room, explained a few words to Wu Xiuxiu, and then came out of the room again.

Then the little official of the post station came forward and said flatteringly: "You two lords, the servants have already asked the cooks of the post station to prepare wine and dishes, and the junior officials have also asked people to hang a few dishes in the gazebo in the backyard of our post station. A lantern, very bright, why don't the two governors sit there for a while to catch up?"

Zhao Feixuan looked at Guo Ye, apparently asking for his opinion,

Guo Ye nodded in praise and said, "Shanhao, Inspector Zhao, please!"

"Please!"

Under the guidance of the post house official, the two went downstairs one after the other, and walked to the spacious backyard behind the post house.

……

……

In a gazebo in the backyard of the post house, four lanterns are hung from the cornices of the four corners of the gazebo, and the lights are warm in color.

On the stone table in the gazebo, there are several dishes of hastily stir-fried small dishes. A pot of small wine is boiling in the middle of the stone table. around the backyard.

At this time, Zhao Feixuan had already shunned all the postmen, even the little postman who was eager to serve the two of them in the pavilion, he had pushed him back.

Within fifty steps of the gazebo, there is absolutely no idler.
