Chapter 30: Arriving in Nanyu Prefecture, meeting old friends
Brothers Yang Bao and Yang Hu admired Xu Qingxiao very much.
The reason is simple.
Since ancient times, official missions have been dealing with cases with privileges. They eat and drink a little, even if they smash something, the shopkeeper will not say anything. After all, the official mission is to protect peace.
It can also be regarded as a kind of protection fee.
Unless it was severely damaged, how could there be an official to give money to the people?
Xu Qingxiao's words were firstly a noble character, and secondly, they were a reminder to the two of them.
It is also the fact that a new dynasty has been established, and all kinds of reforms and reforms are suppressed by officials. If small things are not done well, maybe in the future, they will be unlucky because of such small things.
Of course the most important thing is character.
Sure enough, people who have read the book are different.
The carriage was still moving at an even speed. Yang Bao and Yang Huming talked and laughed on their faces, but secretly looked around vigilantly. If there was any emergency, the two would draw their swords directly.
Xu Qingxiao in the car was also a little vigilant.
No one can guarantee whether they will be in danger or not. If there is danger, it will be a fierce battle.
Fortunately, there were no dangers along the way.
Nearly three hours.
The carriage finally arrived outside Nanyu Mansion.
The difference from before is that there are more and more people on the official road, horse-drawn carriages driving, merchants, peddlers, scholars, all kinds of people.
Inside the carriage.
Xu Qingxiao lifted the curtain and stared at the ancient city ahead.
The city of Nanyu Prefecture is about thirteen or four feet high by visual estimation, and it is blue-gray in color. The ancient city is mottled. As for whether there are traces of swords or swords, Xu Qingxiao can't see them, and they can't see them clearly at a distance of hundreds of meters, but the traces of repairs are obvious.
It was caused by the siege equipment, and the impact scars of flint and the like could not be covered up even after repairs.
"Brother Qingxiao, the Nanyu Mansion is here, look, is it grand?"
Yang Bao pointed at Nanyu Mansion and laughed loudly, those who didn't know thought Nanyu Mansion belonged to his family.
"style."
Xu Qingxiao nodded against his will. Although the ancient buildings are full of wisdom, we can see the modern steel buildings. Xu Qingxiao is really imposing, unless there are various special effects, such as holy light, dragon shadow and so on.
Otherwise, Xu Qingxiao couldn't agree more.
"Brother Qingxiao, it's not my brother, I'm blowing. Nanyu Mansion is the most magnificent ancient mansion in Changping County. It has gone through ten dynasties of the Great Wei Dynasty. It is the ancient city of the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty."
"And there are things in it that the Changping County Council doesn't have."
Looking at Nanyu Mansion, Yang Bao was full of confidence.
"Something that Changping County doesn't have? What is it?"
Xu Qingxiao became curious.
What will the county be?In modern terms, it is the provincial capital, and the provincial capital is basically the most developed city, giving priority to everything.
How to keep Xu Qingxiao from being curious.
"Wenwu Building."
Yang Bao believed in himself.
"Wenwu Building?"
Xu Qingxiao thought it was the Goulanchun Building, but he didn't expect it to be the Wenwu Building.
What is this?
Xu Qingxiao was indeed interested.
"Brother Bao, what is the Civil and Military Building?"
Xu Qingxiao asked curiously.
"Brother Qingxiao is so ignorant."
"This Wenwu Building is a unique place in our Nanyu Mansion. The so-called Wen Building is the place where you scholars go. The girls in it are all beautiful and beautiful, with both talents and looks, but they need to be in love with each other to be happy. It's very troublesome. .”
"This martial arts building is much simpler, there are not so many troublesome things, 580 eight copper coins can be happy, and there are 880 eight, one thousand two eight eight, the most expensive one is only three thousand eight eight eight."
"Where are the girls, although they are not as good as the nobles in Wenlou, they are superior in martial arts skills, making people addicted. Although I don't have much money, brother, if you don't mind, please enjoy the most expensive one, how about it? "
When Yang Bao said this, his expression was excited, and Yang Hu beside him was also full of energy.
And Xu Qingxiao was dumbfounded.
Gan, isn't this a hook bar?
I thought it was nothing more than a vegetarian market and a meat market.
Some brain pain, Xu Qingxiao is not pretentious, nor does it mean that women are not good, the main reason is that it is too expensive, and it is not interesting.
In addition, if there is no stopping the elves, it is better to go less!
Uh, no, yes, there were no elves in ancient times, so can you make them yourself?And what about earning silver?
A bold idea arises.
Only Chen Xinghe coughed.
"Cough cough."
"You two, I thank Qingxiao for your kindness, but this time the main purpose of coming here is the government examination, so don't be distracted."
Chen Xinghe said, he is a decent person, and he doesn't look down on such things if he doesn't drink flower wine. When he heard that the two wanted to take Xu Qingxiao to have a good time, he naturally stopped him, worried that Xu Qingxiao would be too happy to leave, and would fall into a gentle country.
"Thank you two old brothers for your kindness. Forget about it. It's okay if you drink alcohol."
Compared to Chen Xinghe's ungrounded refusal, Xu Qingxiao was much more tactful. The two laughed and went down the steps of Xu Qingxiao.
"Well, that's fine, let's drink together later."
"Also, if something happens in Nanyu Mansion, brother Qingxiao will definitely go to our brother, among other things, at least after spending so many years in Nanyu Mansion, he still has some contacts."
"To be honest, brother Qingxiao's behavior just now is really suitable for you to be a policeman. If you come to our Nanyu Mansion, you will be able to be a policeman in three to five years."
"It's a pity, I went to study."
Yang Bao spoke from the heart.
Xu Qingxiao's ability to respond to situations, and his behavior is extremely sophisticated and mellow, he doesn't look like a young man in his early 20s at all.
"Haha, there is a chance, maybe I haven't passed the mansion exam, and I still come back to work as an errand. If I really come to Nanyu Mansion, the two elder brothers should take good care of me."
What Xu Qingxiao said was not a joke.
The fundamental reason for reading is to suppress the demonic nature in the body, and it is not really wanting to read at all.
Even if you really read well, your future destiny will ultimately be nothing more than two.
Power is poured into the government and the public, under one person, above ten thousand people.
Failure to stand in line, deprivation of official positions, five horses torn corpses.
Politics is no joke. After all, you are dealing with the smartest people in history, and none of them are fools.
So don't think too much about being an official. There is nothing wrong with being an official. After all, you are a loyal wage earner of the emperor's family.
Have you heard of the rebellion of the prime minister, have you heard of the rebellion of the officials?
Even if it really gets to the point of rebellion, if you win, you will be a minister of the dragon.
If you lose, the leader will usually say, let go of my subordinates, they are innocent, and I surrender.
Basically, the emperor would also agree, first to fulfill benevolence and righteousness, and second, to be his own people, killing one less one.
But these were Xu Qingxiao's wild thoughts.
"That's a good relationship. If you come, Yang Hu and I will hang out with you."
Yang Bao said seriously.
Xu Qingxiao also smiled, it doesn't matter if you are polite or not, anyway, if someone is polite, you can just be polite.
Two quarters later.
The carriage arrived at the city of Nanyu Mansion.
Looking at the city wall of Nanyu Mansion up close, I was a little shocked. The thick city wall represented the financial resources of the previous dynasties of the Great Wei Dynasty, and also represented the suffering of countless people.
Since ancient times, people have suffered from rise and fall.
Without emotion, and without reciting poems, Xu Qingxiao dismounted obediently and followed Yang Bao and Yang Hu to pass the inspection.
After taking out the Ping An Road Guide, it is regarded as an identity certificate, and there are two brothers, Yang Bao and Yang Hu, and the customs clearance went smoothly.
Walking into the city road, Yang Bao and Xu Qingxiao walked side by side.
"Brother Qingxiao, don't go out these days. Brother Chengfang told me just now that there are indeed traces of demons outside the Nanyu Mansion. The mansion is in a mess now. It is said that there may be a curfew in a few days. If you have to go out for something, follow me." Say it."
"In case something goes wrong, don't doubt it. I was ordered to stare at you before, but now my brother is telling the truth. Brother, I am a good judge of people. You are a good person. Mr. Cheng has misjudged you."
The itinerary of the past few days has made the two brothers Yang Bao and Yang Hu feel more fond of Xu Qingxiao, so these words are also heartfelt.
"Understood, brother."
Xu Qingxiao could hear the other party's heartfelt words, smiled and nodded in agreement.
A quarter of an hour.
The Yang Bao brothers brought Xu Qingxiao to a restaurant.
Two upper rooms were opened, which was paid by the Yang Bao brothers. No matter what Xu Qingxiao said, the two refused to take it back, so Xu Qingxiao didn't know what to say.
Xu Qingxiao's method of establishing diplomatic relations made Chen Xinghe on the side a little envious.
He has a cold personality, and he doesn't want to communicate with others. He has some friends, but they are all scholars, so they can't be as smooth as Xu Qingxiao.
"Brother Qingxiao, we two brothers will go there first, if you need anything, just go to the government office and find us."
After opening the room, the two told the shopkeeper something, and then left.
Xu Qingxiao personally sent the two of them out of the inn, which also attracted the attention of many people. After all, it was more or less ostentatious to be escorted by an official.
After the two left, Xu Qingxiao and Chen Xinghe planned to go back to their room to rest.
Just right now.
A voice suddenly sounded.
"Chen Xinghe! Brother Chen!"
The voice was not loud, but Xu Qingxiao could hear it clearly.
Looking back, it was a handsome man, dressed in white, walking towards Chen Xinghe, with a smile on his face.
"Brother Wang Ru."
Chen Xinghe was a little surprised, but he immediately returned the gift, and at the same time looked at Xu Qingxiao and said.
"Qingxiao, this is Wang Ru, a friend of my brother's."
Chen Xinghe introduced Xu Qingxiao.
"I've seen Brother Wang Ru, I promise you Qingxiao, whose name is Shouren."
Xu Qingxiao also immediately returned the gift.
"I met Brother Qingxiao."
Wang Ru glanced at Xu Qingxiao, and then returned to etiquette, while looking at Chen Xinghe curiously.
"Brother Wang Ru, Qingxiao is my junior brother, we both came from the same school."
Chen Xinghe explained something, and the latter suddenly realized, and then saluted Xu Qingxiao lightly.
Xu Qingxiao also immediately returned a salute.
