Qingzhou trip

Recently, the business of Sha Hai's guest residence is booming.The person who knew Qinzhou arrived first, followed by dozens of attendants.Gradually, those who knew Qinzhou and Weizhou, the transshipment envoys wandering around in the three states, and officials of all sizes including Chashi were also on their way.If it weren't for King Jin's refusal because he was worried about the border defense, even the regiments from all states wanted to go to Shahai to befriend King Jin.Although Zhao Yifang was always stared at and picked on by the Yushitai in Beijing, in the three states where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, she seems to have become the new master of the hegemony.

The dignitaries and dignitaries of the three prefectures seldom come to Shahai on weekdays, or they dislike the lack of activity in the small town, or they dislike the bad luck of this place.Fortunately, the bad luck was swept away, and the wine alley and flower alley in the city was crowded.There was a queue outside the gate with the plaque of "Sanzhou Zhenfu", and the county magistrate of Shahai greeted them at the front gate.

Since then, Xie Penglai has been kept in the Zhenfu mansion half by force and half by threat by King Jin.King Jin looked at the bustle of visitors from all directions, and said that he was short of manpower at the moment, except for a few personal servants around him, they were all reckless men who only stood at the door as stakes.Master Xie has been cultivating the Northwest officialdom for many years, so it is perfect for entertaining guests.

With a salary from the imperial court, Xie Penglai is also the magistrate of Shahai County, the housekeeper of the Sanzhou Town Fu Mansion, the governor of the Wang Mansion, and Sima's affairs, so he is too busy to touch the ground.The king of Jin sat in the back hall waiting to receive the gift, and then casually exchanged greetings with the visitors.

When he could finally take a breath at noon, Xie Penglai didn't want to eat, so he just leaned against the railing in the front hall and closed his eyes to rest for a while.Li Mo brought her a bowl of lotus soup and invited her to drink, she wiped the sweat from her forehead, "Did King Jin look for me?"

Now that he has figured out the way of this master's courteousness first and then soldiers, every time he finds her, there will be a bowl of soup to pad her stomach.

"King Jin said that I'm tired today, so I won't see the people behind." Although Li Mei looks ordinary, he has a pair of fine eyes, and his cleverness can only be revealed in a blink of an eye, "Master Xie, this arrangement is too tight. Where did King Jin suffer from this in Beijing?"

Xie Penglai immediately lowered his waist and asked for advice, "May I ask Miss Li, how will we arrange tomorrow?" In fact, Xie Penglai was somewhat selfish. Officials from the three prefectures were all running to the sandy sea, not to mention wasting money and people all the way. Let go.Urging them to finish the cutscene quickly, so that they can go back to fulfill their duties as parents and officials early.

"This is Master Xie's duty, how dare Li Mo intervene." Li Mo said with a smile, "In addition, King Jin asked Master Xie to find her a reading companion, saying that it would be best to be a native of Shahai."

County Magistrate Xie's eyes lit up, "Is there anyone to choose King Jin?" She frowned again after thinking of something.

"Hey, Sir Xie, you still don't know who King Jin prefers?" Li Mo said goodbye after saluting.Xie Penglai put down the bowl, hurriedly went to the front and ordered one or two before going to Li's shop to find someone.

To say that people with fame in Shahai are either old or decadent, and the younger ones seldom seek fame.When passing by the Shahai Girls' School, Xie Penglai stopped to look at these female students. They were all between seven or eight to fourteen or fifteen years old, and they had read poetry and books at most.Most of the girls are studying practical studies, or medicine, or adjustment, and agriculture.In previous years, there were also students who studied soldiers and tactics, but after the defeat, they all transferred to other categories.

The four big characters written by Bai Zhi when she opened this girls' school are still hanging in front of the door: Practical learning and practical application.There is absolutely no way to pick a suitable companion to read here.

When sitting at Li's house for a meal, Xie Penglai ate four or five corners of his chopsticks before putting them down. He glanced at the taciturn Yan Yunhan, then at Li Shancui who could only read a basket of big characters, and at the sweaty man who had just finished blacksmithing. Li Suyue's bulging arms were also exposed on the temples.

"Look at what?" Lu Jinhua wiped her mouth after hearing Ah Xie's talk about finding a companion to read, "I also happen to have something to tell you, I don't plan to continue my illness like this. I don't ride a horse for a few days. We're all going to leave, and we'll go back in the afternoon."

Xie Penglai's hands slipped, and he hurriedly picked up the chopsticks from the table, "Hua Niang, you just got better now. Let's talk about it later."

Lu Jinhua is a man of uncompromising temperament, reaching out his hand to stop what a few people wanted to say, "That's it."

After Lu Jinhua and Li Suyue accompanied Lu Jinhua to pack the luggage and herbs, Xie Penglai looked at Huaniang's drooping eyebrows and said softly, "You can agree, let's rest this year. After the New Year's Gift in November Definitely open up, but you have to hold back."

"When you were crying at the base of the wall in the suburbs of Shahai City, you never thought you would teach me one day." Lu Jinhua smiled and glanced at Xie Penglai, "I know. I didn't figure it out. A gentleman is like a tiger, so be careful around her."

"Master, that herbal medicine has to be decocted every day." Li Suyue reminded worriedly.

Xie Penglai regretted that he forgot to buy more candies for Hua Niang today, "I'll go out later, and I'll buy some snacks with you."

"That little bastard has prepared the medicine for me." Hua Niang refused Li Suyue's offer, and only led the horse out with Xie Penglai, "I'm afraid the little bastard didn't eat a few meals. Her stomach is rumbling. Go and bring her something to eat." Finally, she told Li Suyue.

After buying more than ten packages of fruit, Xie Penglai had to pick again, Lu Jinhua pressed the back of his hand, his deep eye sockets burst into light, "Ah Xie, it's really enough. You take me to the river, I have Speak to you."

After crossing the city wall, the two rode on their horses. Xie Penglai's Wudou and Lu Jinhua's mount walked slowly side by side in a very harmonious way.

"These two were born in a stable and trained by a groom. They have the same temperament. I saw that Yue Niang has no horses, so I gave her five buckets." Lu Jinhua patted the head of his mount, "It's the same as the two of us. , and we have to separate again." Looking back at the corner of Shahai Fucheng, Lu Jinhua raised his whip and pointed into the distance, "How old were you then? 17 years old?"

When Xie Penglai felt that she was going to starve to death and freeze to death in the land of exile, the female general in iron clothes glanced at her as she passed by with a sword.At this glance, the relationship between teacher and friend is confirmed.

"I was abused all the way to the sandy sea, and I was given a cornbread a day. I don't know how I survived." Xie Penglai remembered that after Lu Jinhua took her to eat, he hugged his knees and cried bitterly, and was told by the female general Stop, "Don't cry."

"When you come here, think about how you will live in the future. Why are you crying? You should have a good night's sleep after eating and drinking." Back then, Lu Jinhua frowned at the skinny girl.The current Lu Jinhua looked at the handsome Shahai magistrate with a smile on his face, "A Xie is a suave and upright person, and he really hasn't cried since he hit there."

Xie Penglai lowered his head embarrassedly and wiped the tip of his nose, "Hua Niang's arm was cut to pieces and she didn't shed any tears. How could I have the nerve to cry?"

"What is that? There are more miserable things in this world than skin and bruises." Lu Jinhua suppressed his cough, "Ah Xie, what do you think about the matter of the palace attendant...how about that little beast?"

This is also the first candidate that Xie Penglai thought of, but Yun Bailu leads the accompanying errands into and out of his own home, I don't know how she feels?

"Feeling?" Lu Jinhua wanted to look at the yellow sand in the distance of Ye Qiang River, "I'm so upset at this point, don't say she is Ah Zhi's daughter." The naked horse seemed to feel her His heart is also spreading his hooves eagerly, jumping restlessly at both ends.

Lu Jinhua patted the horse, "Look, this horse knows that a long journey is imminent, and even though it is reluctant to part with its old friend, it is still looking forward to running. Yun Bailu won't be inferior to it, right?"

Xie Penglai's churning reluctance and admiration were finally suppressed by Lu Jinhua's eyes, she nodded, "This is also the best way for her to escape from guilt."

"I see, this is the step that King Jin gave Yun Bailu. She has an idea." Lu Jinhua suddenly tightened the reins, and the mount suddenly raised its head and tensed its back, ready to run at any time.

"I have no idea, and I will not set the Xingyuan in the sand sea." Xie Penglai looked into Lu Jinhua's eyes, "Hua Niang, I will try my best to persuade Ah Lu. You...you take care."

"I can keep it. I, Lu Jinhua, lived and grew up on a horse's back. It's uncomfortable to lie in bed every day. Let's go, Axie." Lu Jinhua smiled, her eyebrows raised as before, "Actually, that little beast You still look like Ah Zhi, you..."

That's all, everyone has their own blessings, she can't worry about it here.Lu Jinhua turned around and walked away, leaving a sentence echoing in the air, "Don't cry."

Xie Penglai wiped away tears with a smile, "We see each other once every two years, and we don't allow others to cry."
