Feeling the pressure from Murong Yanchao, Yang Zhi's heart became more and more uneasy, so he waited in front of the west gate early at dawn the next day, expecting Sun Tu and them to arrive in Qingzhou City before the deadline.

But the result disappointed him again, and when the sun set and the city gate was about to close, he couldn't see Sun Tu and a few people. He waited there anxiously for another two days, and on the afternoon of May 20, those familiar figures slowly came from the front.

After seeing clearly that it was Sun Tu and they arrived, Yang Zhi immediately urged the horse and quickly stepped forward, and shouted from afar: "San Lang, you are here, why have you been delayed on the road for so long......"

Sun Tu and the others also saw Yang Zhi galloping from a distance, and they couldn't help but feel a little strange in their hearts, and replied while greeting them: "There were some things one after another in the middle of the road, so it was a few days late." He looked him up and down a few times: "Brother Yang, why don't you take care of it in the barracks, but you came here to wait?" ”

"This ...... Hey, that's not a good situation. Yang Zhi suddenly looked embarrassed, glanced at Sun Tu with some concern, and whispered Murong Yanchao's accusation before, and frowned even more: "Today is two days later than the day he specified, it's not easy for you to go to see him at this time......

"Really? Little brother really didn't think that he would make things so difficult for you, but he made you feel wronged. Sun Tu smiled and threw his hand at Yang Zhiyi, which can be regarded as making amends.

Yang Zhi shook his head: "It's nothing if I suffer some grievances, I'm worried that San Lang will suffer next." That Murong prefect has always been a monopoly in Qingzhou, and he is extremely mean, as long as he takes the slightest mistake, he will inevitably be punished. Especially our military attache ......" Speaking of this, he remembered that two days ago, he saw with his own eyes a military attache being beaten in public by him for a trivial matter, and he really lost all his face.

Sun Tu smiled disapprerovingly: "Just because of such a trivial matter, he wants to move me?" My Sun Tu is a six-rank official ordered by the imperial court, and he is the official and military supervisor of this Qingzhou Mansion, but he is not an ordinary military attaché, and he can let him be angry at will. Seeing that the other party wanted to say something more, he waved his hand and said: "Don't bother talking here, it is the right thing to do if you go to the city to meet this Murong prefect, as for how to deal with it, it is just that the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth." As he spoke, he quickened himself a little and came to the gate of the city.

At this time, the soldiers guarding the city gate had also guessed Sun Tu's identity through Yang Zhi's reaction, and almost all of them were looking them up and down with strange eyes, as if they were a little gloating. In this regard, Sun Tu turned a blind eye, and just urged the horse into the city, and his head held high was quite imposing.

After entering the city, Sun Tu remembered something and glanced at Yang Zhi: "Brother Yang, how many days early can you buy a house in the city?" In addition to the barracks, we will have to have a place to live in the next year or two. ”

"I have already prepared this, it is in Xifeng Lane, two streets away from the government, the housing prices in Qingzhou are much cheaper than elsewhere, and it only cost less than 30 yuan to buy a big house with more than three entrances deep." Yang Zhi saw that Sun Tu was so calm, and his heart was slightly wider, so he replied casually.

"In this case, Tang Feng, you go with them to settle down first, and I will go to the government with Brother Lu and them to do business." Sun Tu turned his head to Tang Feng, who was driving the carriage, because he was a little frightened in that village, Ya'er had not been very good in the past two days, and he was very sad in the carriage, so he was most concerned about her now.

Tang Feng hurriedly agreed, and then drove the carriage and a Jiangzhou soldier who came with Yang Zhi to meet them turned at a junction in front, while Sun Tu and the others continued to go straight, and soon saw the prefect's yamen, which was obviously much taller and more magnificent than the surrounding houses.

There was no need for Yang Zhi to step forward to introduce, Sun Tu had already stepped forward by himself, and after the two messengers stepped forward to block the road, he reined in his horse, looked at them condescendingly and said: "Sun Tu, the new governor of Qingzhou, has come to visit the Murong prefect. Don't you know that he can be in the yamen today? ”

Hearing him report to his home, the two messengers were stunned, and then said: "You are waiting here, wait for us to report to the prefect, ......" But before they could finish speaking, Sun Tu had already dismounted, and then walked straight to the yamen, Luda only smiled when he saw this, but Yang Zhi followed after hesitating for a moment. At the same time, he was even more uneasy in his heart: "San Lang, what is he going to do?" Is it going to be an enemy of the Murong Prefect this time? ”

The two messengers just wanted to stop them, but they were intimidated by the momentum on Sun Tu's body, and the outstretched hand quickly retracted, and the only thing they could do was to quickly turn around and run quickly into the yamen, and report to Murong Yanchao one step earlier.

Murong Yanchao was sitting leisurely in front of the table in the public room at this time, copying a notebook, and the hurried footsteps of the two errand officers immediately disturbed his state of mind, making his hand shake slightly, and the originally good stroke was a little crooked, which made his face change suddenly, and he raised his head and glared: "Why are you so unruly?" Tomorrow I will go to the torture room to receive the punishment! "He has always been very strict in Qingzhou, as long as someone makes a mistake, he will be punished.

The two messengers' faces turned pale when they heard this, but thinking of their failure to fulfill their responsibilities to stop people, they could only report hard: "Futai, the eunuch Sun has come, and he is ...... now."

"Hmph, he came early. Then let him wait outside, and say that the official is still busy with things and has no time to see him. Murong Yan snorted coldly and cut off the two of them. But at this moment, he saw a dusty young man walking towards him with a smile, and one of the two people following behind him was Yang Zhi. This made his face change suddenly, and his anger rose even more, and he slapped the pen in his hand on the pen stand, and shouted: "Sun Tu, you are so bold!" He really didn't expect that Sun Tu would dare to go straight to the mansion and see himself like this.

Sun Tu didn't have the slightest intention of avoiding it, and looked at him at each other, and only when he got closer did he bow down and hug his fist slightly: "Sun Tu, the governor of Qingzhou, has seen the prefect of Murong. I heard that you were in a hurry to see me two days ago, so you came directly after entering the city. I'm a martial artist who doesn't know etiquette, so please bear with me if there is anything wrong. ”

His appearance like this made Murong Yanchao's anger even stronger, and his face was already a little blue. At this time, there were already several government officials on the side, and when they saw this situation, some people immediately shouted loudly: "Sun Dujian, you are too rude, you don't bow when you see the prefect!" Don't you, as an official of the imperial court, even understand this bit of etiquette? ”

Sun Tu had already straightened his waist at this time, and a sneering smile appeared on his face when he heard this: "I'm in Jiangzhou, but I've never heard of such a rule in Tokyo, when did the officials of the same hall have to bow down like this?" As he spoke, his eyes stared at Murong Yanchao without giving way, obviously waiting for his answer.

Murong Yanchao was stunned by his question, but he was angry but he couldn't answer. The Great Song Dynasty has always been noble and humble, and when he came here, he completely suppressed the military attaches under his hands, so in the past, those military attaches were honest in front of him, and kneeling and bowing were even more commonplace. As a result, both he and his officials have long taken this behavior for granted. But now, Sun Tu talked about the court system, but he was speechless, and his momentum suddenly weakened.

Yang Zhi had already bent his knees slightly, and when he heard this, his old face turned red when he quickly stopped moving. Compared with Sun Tu's toughness, he is too bold. But his heart was still full of worry, it was not a good thing for Sun Tu to anger the other party so much.

Seeing that Murong Yanchao was so blocked by himself that he couldn't speak, Sun Tu moved again, walked directly into the public house, and chose a chair to sit down very casually, without thinking of himself as a subordinate or an outsider at all. And the other party reacted, and after seeing his series of actions, his face became even more gloomy: "Sun Tu, other things are left aside for the time being, this official asks you, why didn't you come to my Qingzhou to take up your post after receiving the imperial court order?" Listening to what Yang Zhi said, you were delayed outside because of private matters, how do you explain this? He couldn't hold the other party for a while, so he could only find fault with it and attack.

Sun Tu smiled, and pouted his lips very disdainfully: "Murong Prefect's words are wrong, this official is indeed appointed by the imperial court to come to Qingzhou, but the appointment has never given me a date to arrive in Qingzhou, so why delay and be late?" If you want to say that I am guilty, I'm afraid it's hard to convince people, right? ”

"You ......" Murong Yanchao really didn't expect the other party to be so clever and eloquent, in the past, those military attachés were all silent when they came to him, and they only listened to orders, but today suddenly someone dared to sing against him, and he really didn't know how to deal with it.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with Sun Tu's sudden killing, if the Murong Prefect is given time to prepare, it will not be him Sun Tu who dominates today. This kind of unfavorable situation that he had never encountered before made Murong Yanchao's heart even more angry, especially when he was refuted like this in front of many Yamen subordinates, he felt even more annoyed and angry, and almost wanted to go crazy.

At this moment, he couldn't hold back at all, and immediately slammed the table: "Bold Sun Tu, do you know that you have committed many major crimes." The delay came late, trespassing on the government office, and confronting the boss...... Either is a felony, and the officer has the right to punish you. Come on, take him down for me! "Since he is not an opponent in terms of tongue, then he will use force to suppress it, he really doesn't believe that he can't cure this Sun Tu!
