Five days later, Ye Xun, Xiaohu and Wendu arrived at the Yamen of the Hangzhou prefect. Jiang Yizhou, the same acquaintance of Hangzhou, has been waiting for a long time with dozens of people under the government office, including the chief bookkeeper, thousands of households, stewards, and officials. After Ye Xun reported his identity, Jiang Yizhou hurriedly led everyone to salute, "Hangzhou Tongzhi Jiang Yizhou led his subordinates to greet Lord Futai and Lord Tongju. ”

Ye Xun hurriedly waved his hand to excuse them. Then Jiang Yizhou introduced the positions and names of several other people. Ye Xun also introduced Shen Wendu to everyone. Ye Xun was given up to the seat by everyone.

Jiang Yizhou said respectfully with a smile on his face, "After receiving the order from above, we immediately cleaned up a set of courtyards, just behind the mansion. Lord Ye, you will see if you are not satisfied in a while, just tell the little one, and the little one will send someone to repair it immediately. ”

Ye Xun was sitting there very uncomfortable, "I'm sorry for you." ”

"Lord Ye is polite, this is a small matter. It's just that the lower officials have only prepared a courtyard above, and I don't know how to judge the adults......"

"I'll live with Lord Ye." Wendu said bluntly.

"That's good. The yard is very spacious, and it is still a front and back yard. There are many people who can live. As he spoke, the two officials brought up two trays, each of which was neatly placed in an official uniform and an official seal. Jiang Yizhou motioned for them to be placed on the table, and then bowed his waist to face Ye Xun, "My lord, this is the official uniform and official seal of you and Lord Tongju." ”

Ye Xun glanced at the tray and nodded to Jiang Yizhou. "Lord Jiang, the prefect ...... the previous prefect"

"You mean Lord Yang? Are you looking for him? Jiang Yizhou shook his head, made a very sad look and said, "I was cut in half a month ago in the downtown area." Poor thing! ”

"Huh? Oh. I... Just wanted to ask about the handover work. Ye Xun didn't expect this to be the case, and hurriedly said.

"You can find me to hand over the work." Jiang Yizhou immediately changed his smiling face, "The current accounts, case files, the official records and directories of all the people in Hangzhou have all sent people to prepare, Lord Ye has been bumpy all the way, so it is better to go to the back to rest first, and then the lower officials will send someone to send things to the adults." ”

"Everyone has worked hard, let's go back and rest first." Ye Xun issued an "eviction order".

"Not busy." Jiang Yizhou said with a smile, "The lower official has led the adults to the backyard to settle down, and it's not too late to go back." ”

Xiaohu instructed these officials to carry their luggage, and two people followed behind Ye Xun and his party with trays. Jiang Yizhou walked at the front, hunched over to show them the way. "My lord, go this way. For the convenience of adults, there is a small door from the back of our office, which says that you can directly enter the inner house. Sir, please come here. ”

Ye Xun was led through an inconspicuous small door by Jiang Yizhou. There is a hole inside the small door, and it is a completely different world from the solemnity of the government. In front of the gate is a blue brick wall, carved with a lotus picture, the carving skills are very exquisite, and every texture is clearly visible. Ye Xun couldn't help but touch it with his hand. A huge celadon fish tank is placed under the wall, and there are a few water lilies floating on the water, and a few brightly colored koi are raised...... Walking inside is a step at a time, and the scenery is unique. Not to mention the houses with carved railings and jade buildings, flying eaves and painted buildings, there is only a small bridge, a bend stream, a pavilion, a stone path, a bonsai, a green bamboo, and a weeping willow...... It shows that the designers are attentive. Unlike the majestic buildings in the north, this courtyard is delicate and emotional. Ye Xun couldn't help but sigh that the garden culture in the south has its own subtleties......

Ye Xun didn't know if there was something wrong with such a high-level configuration, he looked at Shen Wendu. Wendu said that he didn't see it, but he just watched the scenery very seriously.

Ye Xun had to speak by himself, "This courtyard is very chic, it can be seen that Master Jiang has really put his heart into it." But isn't it too luxurious? ”

Jiang Yizhou hurriedly explained, "Lord Ye, just rest assured to stay, this also means the above." Xiaguan said it directly, don't be taboo Lord Wangye, this courtyard is still left by the former prefect Lord Yang. Xia Guan just took someone to trim it a little. ”

"Oh? Looking at the layout of this courtyard, this Lord Yang is still a bit of an interesting person. Ye Xun looked at this courtyard and praised it sincerely.

"Alas, Lord Yang is a good hand at chanting poems and making the moon and painting the qin. What a pity! Jiang Yizhou said with a compassionate look.

"That'...... What happened to Lord Yang, who ended up in a different place? Greedy for ink? In my opinion, this yard is not something that can be built for a dollar or two. Ye Xun finally couldn't help but ask curiously.

"It's hard to say. But this Lord Yang has always been high, according to the lower officials, Lord Yang's family is a wealthy businessman, not to mention that the rich rival country is also a pile of gold and jade, how can he care about these small money? Jiang Yizhou shook his head and said.

"The son of a rich man? So why is that? Ye Xun muttered as if talking to himself.

Jiang Yizhou blinked his flexible little eyes and said, "This subordinate doesn't know very well, but Lord Yang is too high-minded, he doesn't understand the rules of officialdom very well, or he doesn't bother to understand them at all, which may be one of the reasons." ”

Ye Xun seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and was about to continue to ask, but several people had already walked to the main hall. Jiang Yizhou invited Ye Xun to sit on the Taishi chair at the top. As soon as everyone sat down, two very iconic little maids served refreshments. The two little maids are dressed in the same emerald dress, with exquisite makeup and a bit of style in their eyebrows and eyes. They bowed to Ye Xun and the others gently, and their voices were as crisp as silver bells, "Ladies and gentlemen, please use it slowly." ”

Ye Xun waited for the two maids to go down before he couldn't wait to ask, "Master Jiang, this is also the configuration it should be?" ”

Master Jiang waved his hand and smiled, "These maids were selected by the lower officials from their own mansions. Lord Ye has just arrived, and his family has not yet taken over, so how can there be no one to serve him in his daily life? Adults can use it first, and if they are not satisfied with the lower officials, they will find another strength for adults. ”

"No need! Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for your kindness. Ye Xun simply refused, "I was originally born in martial arts, so I don't pay attention to it, and I don't need people around me to serve me." Master Jiang should bring people back. ”

Seeing that Ye Xun's attitude was very resolute, Jiang Yizhou hesitated for a moment before bowing his waist and said, "Since this is the case, then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!" The subordinate will take the person back. If Lord Ye needs anything, just ask. The lower officials must be smeared with liver and brains, and they will not give up. ”

Ye Xun nodded and smiled, "Master Jiang has a heart. Well...... It's not too early, I... I won't leave everyone behind. ”

"Your Excellency!" Jiang Yizhou stepped forward and said with a smile, "A few of us have gathered some molecules to catch the wind for adults, and it is not far from the 'Fengyue Tower'." There is West Lake vinegar fish, braised duck, Dongpo meat, called flower chicken... It is famous far and wide, and it is very authentic. Please come and enjoy it. ”

Hearing the names of several dishes, Ye Xun and the three of them were salivating, Ye Xun swallowed his saliva and said, "No, thank you for your kindness." We...... Before entering the palace, I had just eaten and was not hungry. ”

"However, the dishes have already been ordered, this is ......" Jiang Yizhou looked at Wendu and Xiaohu and asked them for help.

Wen Du and Xiaohu hurriedly lowered his head to avoid his eyes.

"Then please ask Lord Jiang to take these adults to enjoy it. The three of us couldn't eat it anyway. Everyone has worked hard to welcome us these days. Be sure to eat and drink well for a while. With that, Ye Xun stood up and put on a posture of sending off guests.

Jiang Yizhou had no choice but to get up and say goodbye, "Then, the lower official will leave, and the adults will have a good rest." Several people said goodbye to Ye Xun.

Ye Xun nodded and returned the salute, "Xiaohu, give a few adults." ”
