Chapter 444: City Guard
The prosperity and grandeur of Chang'an City had already seen and experienced it as early as ten days ago, when Ye Feng and He Side came to Chang'an to find Xiao Tianfeng. This time, as the Li family's convoy came out again, Ye Feng still felt a little emotional, in the ancient metropolis, even if it was just a corner and didn't find a single one, it could always bring a lot of freshness to Ye Feng.
Seeing the scenery and thinking about it, Ye Feng felt that he missed his parents a little, missed Qin Yan, Sister Xinghua and Su Qing, but it was a pity that he came to the secret realm this time, and the "task" on his body was too heavy, and in a short time, I am afraid it would be impossible to return to Huaguo.
Seeing the grand scenery of Chang'an and the people in Chang'an City again, Ye Feng also had a lot of feelings in his heart, and sighed with emotion, it was already half the street, Ye Feng said hello to the coachman, briefly asked a few basic skills in driving the carriage and horses, and then stepped into the carriage and became a temporary coachman.
Mrs. Li's carriage is in front, Miss Li's carriage is behind, and there is a carriage loaded with the dowry of Chang'an City to follow Zuihou, there is a family guard in front of the house to watch the road, and there is a maid and maid in the back, that Wu Xiucai is in the middle of the two cars, and when he saw Ye Feng driving, he just frowned, and didn't say anything, it seems that the three virtues are right, in the heart of the martial arts leader, Ye Feng's kung fu is better than him, and his overall quality is high.
Fortunately, Na Fu Bo didn't follow, at least he didn't follow on the surface, otherwise when he saw Ye Feng driving Miss's carriage, he would have to blow his beard and stare at him.
Miss Li was alone in the car, and there was no maid ring to accompany her.
How to speak. It's better to find an entry point, or wait for Miss Li to come out of the city guard's house, and talk about it when she goes back. Ye Feng muttered in his heart, knowing that Miss Li was behind him, Ye Feng's heart jumped suddenly, as if he had returned to the ignorant youth of sixteen or seventeen, this uncomfortable feeling of suffering from gains and losses made Ye Feng sit still.
After all, this is the first time in his life that he has taken the initiative to pursue a woman, and it is also a beautiful girl who can almost be said to be not in the same time and space or even era as him. A person with the secret of the atlas. A girl whose every move will be monitored by Tianxuanzong at all times.
The experience of actively pursuing a woman is obviously inversely proportional to his cultivation, Ye Feng is full of confidence in his strength, but he really can't talk about how to take the initiative to pursue a girl.
Fortunately, the carriage and horses did not go fast. Leaving Ye Feng plenty of time to think. The red-maned horse was obedient. Seeing that the owner had changed, there was no overreaction at all, and he gasped. Walking happily with your head up.
Just hesitating, the convoy suddenly stopped, Ye Feng looked sideways, in front of the left is a red-walled mansion with a high gate, two bronze lions at the door, the lion's mouth is wide open, the eyes are like copper bells, the momentum is extraordinary, and then look at the eaves in front of the house There is a large mahogany plaque horizontally, with two gold lacquer characters on the book "Fan Mansion", the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, which sets off the extraordinary owner of this mansion.
It turned out that before I knew it, I had arrived in front of the house of the city guard of Chang'an City.
For the official rank system of this Zhengtang State, it is completely different from the development of the official history of Huaguo, Ye Feng is also a mess about it, and it is difficult to understand, but according to the rank of Huaguo in ancient times, it is reluctant to substitute and calculate, this city guard should be a third-grade official, and the maximum will not exceed the second grade, Mrs. Li is the prime minister Li Si and then after that, in terms of official rank, it must be above the third grade, and it is naturally much greater than this city guard, but it is a pity that Mrs. Li is just a false name now, and she eats the old book of Li Sizai, and when it comes to identity and status, it is not as good as before. In addition, if he wants to leave Chang'an City smoothly, Zuihou passes the pass of this city guard, and the Zhengtang Emperor will not embarrass him too much due to the pressure of Tianxuanzong, but the officials below will obviously not be like this, even if they will not stop her in the end, but they will definitely give her some embarrassment, so Mrs. Li will compromise herself and come to the door in person to retreat.
This made Ye Feng also feel surprised, although the Li family has lost power, but after all, it is still a big family, and the head of the family personally brought his daughter to retire is still a bit excessive, according to common sense, as long as a matchmaker is asked to deal with it, but she wants to come by herself, which shows that this Mrs. Li is also a person with a strong temperament.
Now that I've arrived, I can't say anything to Miss Li now, let's talk about it when I return home.
Ye Feng turned his head and beckoned, "Miss, the City Shoufu has arrived, get out of the car." ”
The curtain of the car was gently opened by a white hand as white as jade, revealing Miss Li's beautiful face that was unbeatable in the world.
Seeing that it was not the coachman she was familiar with, but the family who had just entered the mansion and was a little different, Miss Li was startled at first, and then a trace of blush appeared on her face, but she didn't say anything, only hummed in a low voice, and walked down from the car.
Ye Feng jumped down with it, and seeing that those maids hadn't come over, he suddenly came to Miss Li's side and said in a low voice: "Miss, when I go back later, I want to say a few words to you alone, I hope you don't feel abrupt at that time, what I want to tell you is really important." ”
Miss Li sighed, before she could react, the two maids had already surrounded her, she glanced at Ye Feng, saw that his expression was serious, not like a joke, and muttered in her heart: "What does he want to say to me, this person is also rude and bold, he actually swapped with the coachman in private, is there really anything important to tell me?" ”
Mrs. Li had already gotten out of the car in front and said hello, but Miss Li didn't have time to think about it and hurried over.
Ye Feng followed Nawu Xiucai and moved all the dowry gifts sent by the city guards, carried them together with several other family guards, and followed the lady into the city guard's mansion.
As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw a middle-aged man about forty years old coming towards him, followed by a few entourages left and right. This middle-aged man was dressed in a dark green official robe, embroidered with red flowers about an inch in diameter, wearing a long crown hat with gold silk, a square face and long beard, a white complexion, and an extraordinary atmosphere.
asked Wu Xiucai next to him, and it turned out that this person was the number one leader of the government of Chang'an City, in addition to military affairs, Fan Xiyuan, the city guard who controlled the affairs of Chang'an City.
Seeing Mrs. Li, Fan Xiyuan made a gesture and said with a smile: "I don't know that Mrs. Lian came to the door in person, and she missed the welcome, and it was really rude and rude for the lower officials." After saying hello, her eyes fell on Miss Li's face.
Mrs. Lian is Mrs. Li's official title, this Mrs. Li's real name is Qin, a single name is a lotus character, after marrying in the Li Mansion, she was named by the court and given the title of Mrs. Lian.
Ye Feng also just asked from Wu Xiucai's mouth at this time about Mrs. Li's real name and title, and he was happy in his heart, Mrs. The name was taken by coincidence, if a fragrant word was added in the middle, wouldn't it become Qin Xianglian, although the man she married was not Chen Shimei, nor was he a horse master, but he died early, compared with that Qin Xianglian, it was the same fate.
Mrs. Li bowed back, and with Fan Xiyuan entering the main hall, Ye Feng and Wu Xiucai were limited to the status of family members, so they could only wait in the courtyard.
Ye Feng saw that Fan Xiyuan for the first time, especially the pair of peach blossom eyes on his face like a little white face, and he had an inexplicable disgust for this Fan Xiyuan in his heart, and always felt that this person was not simple, and his scheming was quite deep, which was very consistent with the image of the scum who had different hearts.
This is a kind of intuition, and as his cultivation continues to improve, his intuition of observing words and looking at people will become stronger and stronger.
What Mrs. Li and Miss Li talked about in the hall with the city guard, Ye Feng didn't care, he kept thinking about what to say and do when he met Li Caixue later.
When he was pondering, someone outside the door hurriedly rushed in, looking at the dress should be the family of the city guard, this Ding went straight to the main hall, and before he crossed the threshold, he had already shouted loudly: "Master, General Pan of the Governor's Mansion is here, and now he has arrived outside the mansion." ”
This General Pan didn't know who the figure was, that Fan Xiyuan actually left Mrs. Li, ran out of the main hall in a hurry, and hurried to the outside of the mansion.
Ye Feng felt strange and asked Wu Xiucai next to him: "Martial Arts Sect Head, what kind of character is that General Pan, who can actually make this city guard look like this." (To be continued......)
