After a short greeting, the two teams joined forces and slowly set off on a journey to Ruyang.

At the invitation of the Luyang Township Marquis, Luyang County ordered Liu Wei to sit in the carriage of the former, and happened to sit diagonally opposite Zhao Yu and Jingnu, at this time Zhao Yu finally had the opportunity to take a closer look at the county magistrate of Luyang County.

According to Zhao Yu's observation, this Liu County Commander is about forty years old, with only slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and the whole person looks like a well-educated person, and his temperament is somewhat similar to Mr. Dongxi Ram in the Luyang Township Hou Mansion, and there is a bookish air in his gestures.

Generally speaking, adults will inevitably have a kind of habitual contempt for children, but this Liu County Commander, but for some reason is quite willing to communicate with Zhao Yu, after the team slowly set off, he did not immediately discuss major matters with the Luyang Township, but asked Zhao Yu some more personal questions, such as asking Zhao Yu what he did at home on weekdays, and what sages' books he had read.

"Ahem."

After finding an opportunity that was not abrupt, the Marquis of Luyang Township diverted the topic and said: "Gong Liu, about the matter of children, it is better to put it aside for the time being." ”

"Okay."

Liu Xian Ling nodded knowingly, but after glancing at Zhao Yu, he asked again, "Did the townsman ever inform Ling Gongzi of the purpose of my trip?" ”

The Marquis of Luyang glanced at Zhao Yu, shook his head slightly, and said, "Not yet, I was going to tell him on the way." ”

"Tell me what?" Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask.

Seeing this, Liu Xianling said with a smile: "Since this is the case, it is better for Liu to inform the second son." ”

As he spoke, he informed Zhao Yu of the purpose of his trip.

As Zhao Yu guessed, the purpose of Liu Wei and the Luyang Township Marquis to go out this time was to go to the counties around Rushui to ask for help, and Ruyang was their first stop this time.

The reason is that Ruyang is the largest county in the counties around Rushui, which is equivalent to Ye County, a large county in the east of Luyang County, and it is said that the financial resources of one Ye County are worth several Luyang counties, but unfortunately, the current refugee problem in Ye County is more serious than that of Luyang County, and they are unable to help Luyang, which forced Liu Wei and Luyang Township Marquis to go north to the counties in the Rushui area for help.

Liu Wei and the Marquis of Luyang both believed that as long as they could convince Ruyang County, it would be much easier to persuade the rest of Rushui County, so they had today's trip.

"Does Liu Gong think Ruyang will agree?"

After listening to Liu Wei's story, Zhao Yu asked curiously.

"Well, it's hard."

Liu Wei stroked his beard and said solemnly: "Wang Dan, the county magistrate of Ruyang County, I didn't have a deep friendship with him in the past, at best, I went to his family for weddings and funerals, and I went a few times with gifts...... If I want to convince him to help me with Luyang County, I am afraid it will not be easy. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the Luyang Township, and then said to Zhao Yu with a smile: "But no matter what, I have already thought about it, if I can't convince Wang Dan this time and can't achieve my goal, I will rely on his mansion and never come back, I don't believe that he can still ask someone to drive me out!" ”

Seeing that the county magistrate of a county was preparing to do a rogue act, Zhao Yu couldn't cry or laugh, but when he turned his head to look at his father, he saw that the township marquis of Luyang had a solemn face, as if he was recuperating for something.

"How do you feel that these two are going to quarrel on a special trip......

Zhao Yu couldn't cry or laugh.

He looked up at Liu County Commander and Luyang County Order, thought about it for a while, and said to Liu County Order, who seemed to be easier to communicate: "Liu Gong, although the kid is young, but in this matter, the kid is a little stupid, I wonder if Liu Gong can listen to me say a few words?" ”

Liu Wei was slightly stunned, and then saw that Zhao Yu was a little restrained, and said with a smile: "Haha, second son, please speak up." …… Just now I said that this time I want to use the intelligence of the second son, which is not a polite word. Saying that, in order to express his attention to Zhao Yu, he bowed his hand and said, "Please ask the second prince to lend his wisdom to him." ”

Such attention made Zhao Yu stunned and a little at a loss, he turned his head to look at the Luyang Xianghou, but saw the latter said lightly: "If you have any ideas, just say it, as for right and wrong, Liu Gong and his father will think about it." ”

"Uh, okay."

Zhao Yu nodded, and after sorting out his thoughts, he said to Liu Wei: "Liu Gong, in order to help convince that Ruyang County Commander Wang Dan, the kid thinks that Liu Gong and his father need to correct an idea...... That's the purpose of my trip to Ruyang. ”

"Purpose?"

Liu Wei stroked his beard and asked puzzledly, "Didn't you go to ask for help?" I don't understand ...... below."

"Nope."

Zhao Yu shook his head and corrected: "It's not to ask for help, but to collect debts." Why? Because my Luyang County has shared the troubles of the refugees for Ruyang, Ruyang County should give our county, not as help, but as the ...... he owes us."

As he spoke, he paused, and then said to Liu Xuan: "It's not intuitive to say this, Liu Gong, forgive the kid for being powerless, can Liu Gong temporarily pretend to be Wang Dan, the county commander of Ruyang County, and let the kid dare to replace you, and demonstrate that the kid will visit you, so that the kid can most directly express the kid's thoughts." ”

"The second son is pretending to be below?" Liu Wei smiled.

"You're so rude! How can you pretend to be Liu Gong? The Luyang townsman reprimanded on the side.

As soon as the words fell, I saw Liu Wei raise his hand to stop the Luyang townsman, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, anyway, there is still a period of time before Ruyang, let's discuss in the carriage, it's better to try the method proposed by the second son......" Saying that, he took a slight breath, shook his sleeves, and sat down in a precarious position: "Then, Liu Gong is the Wang Dan now, the second son, please." ”

Zhao Yu nodded, and then turned his head to the Luyang Township Marquis and said, "Father's words are still the original role, and I will ask my father to cooperate later." ”

"Hmph."

Seeing that Liu Wei agreed to Zhao Yu's nonsense, the Marquis of Luyang naturally didn't want to say anything, and snorted lightly: "For the sake of your father, you just take care of yourself." ”

Zhao Yu shrugged his shoulders secretly, and then said to Liu Wei: "Gong Liu, offended. ”

Hearing this, Liu Wei frowned childishly and said, "Who is that?" I am Wang Danye. …… Ha, second son, please. ”

Seeing that everyone was ready, Zhao Yu took a slight breath, learned to sit upright with Liu Wei, and immediately bowed his hand and said, "Prince, long time no see." ”

And that's where it begins?

Liu Wei nodded, and also entered the role he played, only to see him squint at Zhao Yu a few times, and then smiled with a little contempt: "Yo, isn't this Liu County Order, haha, Liu County Order's visit today really made our mansion shine......"

On the side, Jingnu saw Liu Wei calling Zhao Yu Liu County Order, although she knew that the three of them were pretending, she couldn't help but want to laugh, so she had to cover her mouth with her cuffs, not daring to disturb the three of them.

"Looking at Liu Gong's behavior, how close is his relationship with Wang Dan, the county commander of Ruyang County, I'm afraid that the other party has mocked Liu Gong in the past, right?"

Without paying attention to the quiet girl beside her, Zhao Yu thought for a while and said: "Prince, just be free from polite words, Duke Liu came today, I believe the prince can guess a few points." ”

"Huh." Liu Gong stroked his beard, and after deliberately hesitating for a moment, he pretended not to be confident and asked, "Liu Gong is drinking in Wang?" ”

"This excuse ......"

Zhao Yu suppressed the crying and laughing in his heart, and said expressionlessly: "Guess again!" ”

Hearing these two short words, Liu Jian almost couldn't help laughing, but he quickly held back, couldn't help but laugh and said: "I really don't know in the next place, please Liu County Commander speak up." ”

Since this is the case, Liu said bluntly. Shaking his sleeves, Zhao Yu stared at Liu Wei Zhengse and said: "I came here this time, I hope that Ruyang County can allocate a sum of money and grain from the county warehouse to Luyang County to alleviate the refugee problem in my county!" ”

"Refugees?" Liu Yi was stunned, and then pretended to say suddenly: "Oh, I see, I understand, it turns out that Liu Xianling is asking for help this time." As he spoke, he smacked his lips and said with a sad face: "What happened to Guixian County, Wang is very sorry, but my Ruyang County has also been plagued by drought in recent years, and I am afraid that I will not be able to help Guixian......

After speaking, he was afraid of misleading Zhao Yu, so he explained in a normal tone: "This is just what I said as Wang Dan, in fact, Ruyang is fully capable of helping." ”

Zhao Yu nodded to show that he understood, and then pointed to his father Luyang Township Marquis beside him, and said to Liu Wei: "Prince, this is the Township Marquis of my Luyang County, this time Liu and the Township Marquis came together, I believe that the Princess's sincerity has seen the sincerity of our county, and I hope that your county will help." ”

Noticing that the Marquis of Luyang squinted at Zhao Yu, Liu Wei couldn't help but laugh and coughed, shook his head and said sadly: "Having said that, but ...... There is nothing you can do about it. ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard Zhao Yu suddenly shout in a deep voice: "Wang Dan! Liu has good words, why do you insist on death and not save him? ! ”

"You're going to start having trouble?"

Liu Wei raised his eyebrows, feeling that the kid in front of him was really a bit imposing, but it was a pity that he was too young and really had no majesty at all.

He thought about it, and according to his understanding of Wang Dan, the county commander of Ruyang County, he said with a straight face: "Liu Wei, you are too rude!" You are the commander of Luyang County, and it is understandable to consider your county, but Wang also needs to consider my Ruyang; Moreover, you and I are both the heads of the same county, what qualifications do you have to shout at Wang! …… Someone, send off! ”

When it came to the end, he looked at Zhao Yu with some hesitation, feeling that he was a little too harsh, although he did demonstrate according to Wang Dan's character, but the little guy in front of him ...... Will he be able to take it?

However, just when he hesitated, he saw Zhao Yu flicking his sleeves and shouted angrily: "There is no need to send off guests, Liu can leave!" …… It's just that the prince should not regret it! ”

"Regret what?"

I saw Zhao Yu looking at Liu Wei deeply, and said in a deep voice: "After Liu returns to the county this time, Liu will order the opening of the official warehouse, and distribute half of the grain in the official warehouse to the refugees in the territory, and then inform those refugees that my Luyang County is only a small county, and I am unable to relieve the refugees, and to the north of my Luyang County, there is a large county named Ruyang, and the county is full of money and grain...... Prince, do it yourself! ”

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeves to indicate that he was walking away.

"This kid...... It's a bit ruthless.'"

Liu Wei and the Luyang townsman glanced at each other, and they were both shocked in their hearts.

In exchange for the two of them, they are the county commanders of Ruyang County, and they don't dare to let this "Liu Wei" who is a lot of cruel words leave at this time, right?

"Liu County Order, please stay!"

Liu Wei immediately raised his hand to make a gesture of retention.
