Chapter 477 (2/2)
To make sure that Li Yuanhe really had nothing to do, Wang also gave a bright smile and did not rush to the front. Instead, he and Li Yuanhe started talking and talking about things behind the team. After a while, even Luo Yan came along, and the three began to talk to each other, which diluted Li Yuanhe's feeling of leaving home.From Jingnan city to Bian City, it takes more than ten days to ride a horse like them. In any case, they were not in a hurry. According to the emperor's decree, they would be appointed in two months' time. Taking into account Ouyang Ming's coming to Beijing South City and one month's delay in it, even if it was a little later, it would be enough to catch up. In this way, people enjoy the scenery along the way, while slowly and leisurely toward Biancheng direction.
After walking for five days, I finally arrived at a small town along the way. Seeing the sky was almost the same, people who had been camping in the wild these days simply decided to spend the night in this small town. The official token of their current official posts was shown. Naturally, the city guards in this small town did not dare to stop Li Yuan and them. Instead, they respectfully invited them into the city and did not dare to neglect them.
This is no joke. Li Yuan and his party have two officials of five grades. I'm afraid the top officials in this small town are about nine grades. Even Li Yuan and the eight grade generals were higher than him. How dare these city guards stop them? They even assigned a city guard soldier to go to the highest officer of this small town to receive him.
Li Yuanhe and others are not in a hurry. According to Luo Yan's opinion, in this small town, of course, it is best to ask local officials to arrange their accommodation. Li Yuanhe didn't have any opinions on this point, and Wang also agreed with him. Just staying at the gate of the city caused some novelty among the people who came in and out. In particular, when I saw the soldiers guarding the city like wolves on weekdays, but now they are courting like grandsons one by one, I can't help but wonder secretly.
After a while, I saw a fat official running from the city. When I saw Wang Ye and others, I couldn't help but brighten my eyes. At present, he didn't care about the ugly appearance of sweating. He went to worship Wang Ye and others and said, ”humble Xiong Gongming! He is the guard of Yucheng City! See you, gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen, come to Yucheng! It's a great honor to be in a humble position! ”
Seeing that the fat official was panting but still had to salute the crowd, Li Yuanhe and others couldn't help laughing. At last, Wang had seen the world, so he nodded and said with a smile: ”don't be too polite, Mr. bear! I'm waiting to go to Biancheng to work. I'm passing by Yucheng. I just want to stay in Yucheng for one night. I'll leave tomorrow! ”
Hearing that Wang said the same thing, Xiong Gongming could not help but feel relieved. He had just heard his report that the officials of the capital city had suddenly brought people and horses to Yucheng, but he was shocked. His official position in the city was originally obtained through a lot of contacts. In recent years, he could not have been as pure as water and greedy. As soon as I heard that a senior official came from the capital city, my first reaction was that I was afraid of catching him. Now I heard that he was going to take up his post. I was more or less relieved.
Immediately Xiong Gongming made a gesture of invitation to Wang Ye and others. However, he took a look at the people around him, but his heart leaped involuntarily. Fortunately, although Xiong Gongming was greedy, he still didn't bully the common people. Otherwise, if these people took advantage of the time just now, they would have been unable to bear it.
At the thought of this, Xiong Gongming was frightened. The sweat just wiped off his forehead began to come out again and again. More and more respectfully invited Wang Ye and others to go to the biggest restaurant in the city. They also took out a square scarf from the cuff and constantly wiped the sweat on their forehead.
Luo Yan took a look at the city guard and asked with a smile, ”it seems that the bear is very hot? It's October now. How can you sweat so much? ”
Xiong Gongming even bowed to Luo Yan, forced a smile and said, ”that's very hot! The humble body is too fat, fat people can't stand the heat. ha-ha! ha-ha! My Lord, please! My Lord, please
Luo Yan has been in the officialdom for many years. When he was not under Luo Tianhan's command, Luo Yan had been an official in Jingnan city for many years. He had never seen anything. So Luo Yan can see at a glance what Xiong Gongming is thinking. However, it has nothing to do with him. Naturally, he will not go into trouble. Even if he laughs, he will follow Xiong Gongming's guidance and walk towards the city.
