Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general

The disaster relief governor arrived two days earlier than expected. The gates of Anping City were wide open, and carriages loaded with food and medicine filed in, causing the people at the city gate to applaud and cheer.

"Everyone, rest assured, these are just the first wave of supplies. The follow-up is already on the way. As long as the flood in Jiangnan is not resolved, this governor will not return to the capital!"

The governor was tall and strong, his face was dark and his lips were cracked from days of running around, but his eyes were unusually bright and his official uniform was unusually new.

The people prostrated themselves and praised: "Great Lord, you are finally here!"

The Anping City government office was out in full force, setting up a strong presence at the city gate.

"Your humble servant Wei Shaofeng, the magistrate of Anping City, respectfully welcomes the governor!"

The governor stood on the carriage, frowning slightly: "Are you the magistrate of Anping County? The legendary drunkard?"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was complete silence at the city gate!

The fat on Wei Shaofeng's face twitched twice. He suppressed the emotions in his eyes and still bowed his body: "Your Excellency the Governor is right. This time Anping suffered a disaster. I am the parent official of Anping City. I have no choice but to take responsibility. I would like to invite Your Excellency the Governor to sit in the government office later. I will apologize in person!"

"Haha, how did you become the county magistrate? You are talking nonsense. Do you think you can let someone else apologize for you?"

Wei Shaofeng was so humble, but it seemed that the governor was not willing to let him go.

Wei Shaofeng groaned in his heart. He had expected that Anping City was the first city that the capital entered Jiangnan. Naturally, he was the first person the governor used to establish his authority.

Two days ago, colleagues in other cities had written to him asking him to be patient and to show the governor a noble and capable image among the disaster victims. This would make things easier in the future.

I heard that this governor came from the Hanlin Academy, and he is still a young boy. Naturally, he is more arrogant because of his youth. No matter how ruthless the scholars are, can they be as powerful as these veterans who have been immersed in officialdom for many years?

Let this governor show off his power and be proud of himself first, and then we can take our time to make plans. There is no official in this gentle land of Jiangnan who cannot melt his heart!

In the past, he was a prince from the capital, and in the end, didn’t he become close friends with them and call them brothers?

Floods happen every year, and the governor comes every year, and nothing is different!

However, this was the first time that Wei Shaofeng was criticized with such vulgar words in front of so many people!

"Governor, since you are here, the brothers will withdraw!" A general walked out of the porridge shed, clasped his hands and said:

"The job of distributing porridge and medicine is entirely up to you, adults!"

The governor then left Wei Shaofeng and clasped his fists towards the generals in return: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers. I will go to Admiral Zhao's place to have a drink and eat meat with you some other day!"

The general laughed broadly: "Hahaha, I will be waiting for you, sir!"

The ferocious soldiers retreated quickly and disappeared in a moment.

Wei Shaofeng let out a long sigh!

These plague gods are finally gone!

He had his own way of dealing with the governors of previous years, but he really had no way to deal with these reckless men who were always shouting for war and killing!

"The governor must have been tired on the journey, and a welcoming banquet has been set up in the city. I will take care of the porridge stall!" Wei Shaofeng winked, and the yamen runners on the side shouted to more than a dozen people:

"You go chop wood, you go pour rice, you go scoop porridge, and you go boil medicine, don't be careless!"

Wei Shaofeng was very satisfied. Although he was only a county magistrate in Anping City, he never wanted to leave Jiangnan for a higher position.

The money allocated by the imperial court every year for repairing river embankments is hundreds of times more than what the provincial governments in other places can provide!

He is not a stingy person. He feeds all the people under him well, so when they work for him, they will naturally work their best!

The runners had just taken two steps when they heard the governor standing on the carriage raise his hand and say, "I don't need you. I have my own people!"

As he waved his arm, Wei Shaofeng saw a group of people running behind the convoy.

Yes, one person and one horse, there are about a hundred people in total!

He couldn't find a hundred horses in the entire Anping City!

"These are just the ones who are faster and followed me here. There are some people behind us. I guarantee you won't have to worry about the porridge stalls in Jiangnan!"

The governor clapped his hands and jumped off the carriage with a thump, without anyone's help.

"Listen carefully! I have already told you on the way here what those soldiers did in the past. Their swords can drink blood and their fists can beat people. Don't bring shame to the Gyeonggi Patrol Battalion!"

"Yes!" Hundreds of people shouted in unison, the earth shook and Wei Shaofeng's ears hurt!

The common people were cheering. Just now, they were worried that people from the government office were going to take over the porridge stall, but in the blink of an eye, the governor sent people, and they were military men!

When they first saw the bloody soldiers, they were frightened, but after receiving porridge and medicine for a few days, they felt that this group of people were particularly cute!

As long as these soldiers are here, no one dares to cause trouble.

Bags of rice and medicinal herbs were piled under the shed, but they didn't worry about being stolen or robbed, nor did they worry about the evil people in the government office daring to do something with the porridge and soup.

This full sense of security is all given by these soldiers.

The common people of Anping City now think that the soldiers, even those with muscular bodies and twisted scars on their faces, are particularly handsome!

The soldiers brought by the governor look much better than before, and they have an air of nobility!

The common people whispered to each other: "As expected of someone from the capital, he is more powerful than those officials in the government office!"

"How can you compare those scum with the governor's soldiers? Isn't this an insult?"

"Look at the nonsense I'm talking about. On one side is a human, and on the other side is a dog. It's really hard to put them together!"

"Looking at the governor's behavior, it seems that he is different from before. I hope that this time he can find all the borers who have hollowed out the river bank and chop off their heads!"

"Alas, it's hard to say. This governor looks very young. I'm afraid he will be tricked by those people again!"

The people were talking about it, saying all kinds of things.

Wei Shaofeng's eyes were somewhat smug. These people were right. Not all the governors who came to Anping City were greedy for money and lustful.

But everyone has weaknesses. For example, the governor in front of us, at first glance we can tell that he lacks experience in officialdom. For a person like this, we can set a trap for him and he will be obedient!

After everything was arranged at the city gate, Wei Shaofeng led the governor and his entourage straight to his villa.

There, delicious food and beautiful women have been prepared, as well as several boxes of silks and jewelry. I guarantee that even the well-informed governor in the capital will be amazed!

The governor did not refuse and ordered the carriage to follow Wei Shaofeng.

"Sir, if you eat this meal, your reputation will be ruined tomorrow!"

In the carriage, a man who looked like a legal advisor said this. He held the cup and lowered his head to drink tea, but his eyes were teasing.

"Come on, put away your little thoughts of watching the fun. I have never thought of being an honest official. How can I fight against these jackals if I am incorruptible and penniless?"
