Chapter 50 There are many mosquitoes in Shuguo
This time I got up earlier than usual, and I was pulled up from bed by Zhou Zheng before dawn!
Luo Li looked at the thick black eyes, gathered the delegation team, and waved goodbye to Yue Wu and Lang County Commander on the city wall.
On the carriage, the shaking felt like a baby cradle, and Luo Li fell asleep again not long after.
By the time the carriage stopped, a few hours had passed, and it was considered to be completely out of the border with Angola.
I thought that there would be a Shu army here to greet and hold a grand welcome ceremony.
It turns out that Luo Li is naΓ―ve!
The two countries have been at war for a long time, and it is impossible to send troops to greet them, but it is still no problem to eat and drink well.
Stepping out of the carriage and looking up, there was a faint feeling of a thousand miles of plains.
It is a pity that such a fertile land is so vast and sparsely populated that no people dare to live and farm, only a few horse bandits like to plunder caravans along the way.
"What a waste!" Luo Li couldn't help but sigh.
"Brother Xian, what is wasted?" Zhou Zheng held dry food in his hand and walked over while nibbling.
"I said that this fertile land is wasted, and if there is no war, it must be able to feed hundreds of people after sowing seeds!" Luo Li said with a sigh.
Zhou Zheng pursed his lips and opened his mouth disdainfully: "Brother Xian's words are wrong! Foolish brother thinks this is not a waste! β
"Not a waste?" Luo Li looked at him intently.
Zhou Zheng replied inscrutablely: "Isn't it! If everyone in Anguo does not waste food, saving rations a day is enough to feed the people of the whole country for four or five days! β
"Comparatively speaking, is it a waste if this land is not cultivated?"
Luo Li stared at him speechlessly and said, "What you said is impossible to come true!" β
Zhou Zheng, who was refuted, was not angry, but replied with a smile: "So there is no if in the world!" β
"Haha! Brother: interesting! It's so interesting! Luo Li grinned.
The moral of what Zhou Zheng said is very simple, he wants to enlighten Luo Li and imply that he should not think too much!
It's easy to get a good impression of such wonderful people!
After lunch, the mission hurriedly set off again, and had to enter the county seat of Qingdong County in Shuguo before dark.
After leaving the border of Angola and arriving at the Sanzhi Zone, you must be energetic on the way, especially not staying overnight in the wilderness!
Therefore, the team of the mission worked hard, and the speed increased several times, and even the gray-haired old men no longer took two steps and shouted that they couldn't stand it, and they all threw off their feet and rushed forward.
Uncle is still your uncle, and the kung fu of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is really perfect!
Dusk came as scheduled, and the mission finally arrived at Qingdong County, an important border town in Shu, before sunset, where the terrain and landform are different from Anguo!
If Anguo is the northern plain, then Shuguo is a typical hilly area, starting from more than ten miles near Qingdong County, there are many hills, and the height is extremely uneven.
In addition to the hills, it is said that in the extreme west, it is a loess high slope landform, and the scenery of thousands of miles of red and yellow at a glance has a unique taste.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, Zhou Zheng's voice came from the sedan chair in front of the carriage.
The team of the mission stopped and turned their eyes to the body of the sedan one after another.
Zhou Zheng got off the sedan chair with small thick legs and began to arrange everything.
Looking at the gap, Zhou Zheng explained to Luo Li.
After going abroad, whenever he encounters a county seat in another country, five miles away from the city gate, he needs to organize the team by the preface team first, and he must not mess up and damage the image of the country.
You need to play a musical instrument until you enter the city and arrive at the station!
This is to show the demeanor of a great country!
When the team was sorted out, with Zhou Zheng's "music", they marched towards Qingdong County!
About a mile away from the city gate, Luo Li raised his eyes and saw that the border town generals, county commanders and other officials who were guarding Qingdong County had been waiting for a long time.
Diplomacy is often sometimes incomprehensible, and countries that are clearly fighting to the death are unhappy with each other to the limit.
However, if an embassy arrives, not only must it not be killed, but it must also be fed and drunk to protect the safety of the mission, and it must not be allowed to die on its own turf.
In Luo Li's view, this is a typical example of being full of food.
However, it is not entirely unreasonable, the main emperors of all countries want to save face.
Imagine that the envoys of other countries came with a smile on their faces, but they clicked directly, and the emperor of the dynasty would definitely be called a tyrant and would be spurned by the people and officials.
Getting back to the point, the closer it was to Qingdong County, Luo Li was trembling faintly in the carriage.
At first, it was the arms, then the legs, and the whole person was reddish and in a state of excitement.
Gently lifting the curtain of the carriage, Luo Li stretched out his head, his eyes revealed an inexplicable taste, and he whispered to the officials in the city: "It's finally here!" Hehe! β
Along the way, don't look at Luo Li collecting money and relaxing, as if this mission is a journey of eating and drinking.
In fact, Luo Li has never forgotten his undercover identity, nor has he forgotten the ultimate purpose of this mission.
Destroy the alliance between the two countries of An and Shu!
What to soak the sister that the Emperor Anguo is going to marry, in order to destroy the alliance, this kind of plot can only be a novel.
Let's not say that the sister of the Emperor of Anguo doesn't look down on him, if you really dare to do this, Luo Li will be chopped up and fed to the dog immediately, believe it or not?
With an excited mood, he finally arrived at the city gate a hundred steps away, and Zhou Zheng took Luo Li and Li Zimi forward to look at the officials here.
At this time, Qiu Fu can't jump out, and Heishuiwei's identity is extremely taboo here.
"Haha! Brother Guo, I haven't seen him for ten years, and the general's demeanor is still the same! Zhou Zhengyi changed the etiquette of the literati, stretched out his hands and hugged a man with a thick beard.
General Guo's name is Guo Kai, nicknamed the bearded, he is one of the border town generals of Shu State's 'horseback cultivation immortal' before, and he is also Yue Wu's long-term rival, stationed in Qingdong County for many years, and fought to the death with Yue Wu and Jiang Ming.
The allusion to cultivating immortals on horseback is caused by Luo Li and the fat man's laxatives.
At that time, Liu Zhe and the four border town generals under his command returned, and because they drank the powerful laxatives used by animals, they ascended to heaven on horseback with fart strength, so they were named horseback immortals!
"Haha! After receiving the customs clearance document before, the old man thought it was still the kid from last year, but he never thought that it was Brother Zhou who came in person, which was really a blessing in life! Guo Kai kept patting Zhou Zheng's back, and the two were like old friends.
If he hadn't known that Zhou Zheng had no possibility of rebellion, Luo Li would have wondered if he had been trapped!
After letting go of his embrace, Guo Kai pointed to the middle-aged literati beside him: "Lord Zhou, the old man will introduce you to you, this is Feng Yuan, the county magistrate of Qingdong County!" β
Zhou Zheng smiled and immediately saluted him deeply: "It turned out to be Feng County's order, and he has admired his name for a long time, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation!" β
Feng Yuan followed the salute in return, and said very politely: "Lord Zhou praises falsely, contemptible talents are shallow in learning, and they should not be worthy of their name!" β
I thought that Zhou Zheng was polite, but he waved his hand and said: "Eh~ Feng Xianling is modest!" In Yiding County, Shuguo, who doesn't know that Feng County Commander is not afraid of power for the people, and angrily beheads the powerful who violate the law? β
Feng Yuan was shocked in his heart, and said incredulously: "How could Lord Zhou know about this? β
Frankly speaking, if Feng Yuan hadn't forcibly cut down the criminal magnates that time, he would not have been assigned to the border pass as a county commander.
"A noble person will have a clear name to pass on to the world!" Zhou Zheng put out a set of sycophants in his mouth, and the relationship between the two was quickly co-opted.
"Haha! It's all a false name, just a false name! Feng Yuan grinned and hurriedly waved his hand modestly.
"Feng Xianling doesn't have to be modest, if he is so loyal to the country, he will definitely be valued by the people and the Shu Imperial Court, and I believe that he will be promoted in the near future!" Zhou Zheng squeezed the other party's hand and climbed up, as if he admired him.
As soon as these words came out, Feng Yuan's face changed slightly, but the words could not be revealed in his throat.
On the other hand, Zhou Zheng didn't care about the gaffe at all, and bypassed the topic with haha.
Luo Li, who had never spoken on the side, opened his pupils slightly, looked at the two thoughtfully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's a little interesting!
It is estimated that Zhou Zheng said this on purpose just now, as for what he wants to do, Luo Li is not clear.
It was only now that Luo Li gradually realized that Zhou Zheng was talented, his words were not leaky, he was principled in doing things, and most importantly, he was very clear about what the very small person in Shu Guo had done.
He is worthy of being a useful person of the Emperor of Anguo!
"Brother Xian, come, introduce you to my brother! This is General Guo Kai Guo, among the generals of the Nine Towns of Shu State, General Guo is the most courageous! Zhou Zheng smiled and took Luo Li and introduced it.
Luo Li grinned and said, "General Guo, hello!" β
After greeting him, Luo Li spread out his arms, just when everyone thought he would clasp his fists and salute!
Suddenly, Luo Li yelled: "Ah~ mosquito! β
"Smack!"
The crisp slap spread, and the world was quiet!
I saw Luo Li's right hand sticking to Guo Kai's face, and his dark skin was rapidly turning red!
Zhou Zheng, Guo Kai, Feng Yuan, Li Zimi and others all stared wide-eyed, opened their mouths wide, and looked at this scene in disbelief!
After a while, Luo Li put down his palm and muttered to himself: "There are many mosquitoes in Shuguo!" β
Everyone: "......"
