Chapter 268: Temptation
Ezhou is located in Jingxiang, the air is humid, in the cool breeze near the end of the year, although it is not as cold as the north, but it also makes ordinary people be blown by the fierce river wind to shrink their necks.
However, Jia Rudao didn't care about this coldness, he stood in front of the generals, with a cold face, in stark contrast to the Ezhou officials who were hiding aside.
He stood in such a high-profile position that even those who didn't know him could clearly distinguish that this was the biggest official in this clearing.
My sister is a noble concubine, and she lives in Jiangzhou Zhizhou, and she is sentenced to be the deputy envoy of the system along the river, and she is in the limelight, and the saints are in full swing.
In the eyes of Ezhou Zhizhou and other local officials, Jia Rudao does have such an arrogant capital.
They shrunk and stood a little farther away, looking at Jia Rudao, and then at the group of people in Sichuan who were walking over, and involuntarily took a step back to the side.
There are Shangguan on both sides, and they are all people they can't afford to provoke, although they don't understand Jia Yidao's menacing appearance, I don't know why this young and enlightened adult would break the routine of officialdom and have to get along with one party, but it is always right to stand far away so as not to get into trouble.
Under the gaze of Ezhou Zhizhou and others, Wang Kui, Changsun Hong and others walked to the center of the open space.
and Jia Yidao's team, but a few strides away.
The man stood still, and no one spoke.
The footsteps stopped, and the street was as quiet as a desert.
The air seemed to be slowly solidifying, except for the crackling of the torches burning all around.
Wang Kui stood in the middle of the crowd, with a prominent position, and naturally met Jia Nidao.
Both squinted, looking at each other without moving.
Wang Kui is tall, and the people who have been killed from the battlefield have an invisible evil spirit, his eyes are like swords and axes, and he is a god standing there, although he does not show his edge, his breath is overflowing, and his beard is unkempt and his figure is majestic, making his image more like a surging wave, and waves of impact in all directions.
When ordinary people encounter the gaze of such a murderer, they will be more or less empty.
Jia Rudao is different, he stands there steadily, like a mountain and a peak.
Angran and Wang Kui looked at each other.
A face that had not been exposed to much sun and looked white and tender did not rise at all, as if the person standing opposite was not a higher official than him, nor was he a killing god who had his hands glued to his feet and stepped on people's heads, his eyes were full of indifference and confidence, and there was no sense of weakness and panic.
Changsun Hong stood beside Wang Kui, with everything in his eyes, and couldn't help but cheer for Jia Rudao in the depths of his heart.
Whether it is a traitor or a loyal minister, those who can achieve one person under ten thousand people in the future must not be a mediocre minister, but must be extremely capable.
Wang Kui stood still and stared at a person, how much deterrence there was, Changsun Hong knew, this kind of superior person has his own murderous role, ordinary people will generally avoid his gaze.
The atmosphere in the clearing was strange and awkward, and it felt like water was about to wring out.
"Ahem!"
Ezhou Zhizhou finally couldn't help it, he was a landlord, and it was not a matter to always hide.
Straightened his stiff feet, shook the muscles on his face that were a little unnatural because of nervousness, he piled up a smile on his face, nodded his hands and came to the middle of Wang Kui and Jia Rudao, and made a haha.
"Hehe, Lord Wang has worked hard from afar, and Chen Wen, the governor of Ezhou, has been waiting for you here for a long time."
He has a lovely smile, a fat figure, and has the consciousness of seeing a superior official, and his posture is very low.
Wang Kui didn't bird him, still staring at Jia Rudao without letting go.
Chen Wen arched his hands and maintained his posture, not knowing whether to stand up or continue to do it.
Changsun Hong stretched out his hand and quietly poked him in the waist.
Wang Kui suddenly burst out with a loud laugh, like a bell, compared to Chen Wen's greetings just now, like thunder than a frog.
"Hahaha, sure enough, the boy is handsome! This adult has a handsome face, weak and talented, it must be Lord Jia Rudao, the deputy envoy of the Yanjiang system, right? This official has heard about it for a long time, and it is an honor for Wang to see it today! ”
He tilted his head, touched his beard and smiled, his eyes glanced at Jia Yidao from a top-down angle because of his height.
Jia Rudao smiled slightly, not annoyed at all, and didn't pay attention to the sarcasm in Wang Kui's words, but just returned the salute: "Lord Wang is also as powerful as Si, a literati is a military general, people say that Lord Xichuan is invincible, Jia admires him tightly, when I see it today, I have a long-cherished wish in my heart!" ”
Words are like knives, and words are like arrows.
Chen Wen next to him was about to cry.
These two people exchanged words, and the smell of gunpowder was something that everyone could smell, so if they argued, how would it be good?
He thought about it and felt that he couldn't be ignored, so he took a step forward and quickly interjected in the gap after the two of them spoke.
"Lord Wang, Lord Jia crossed the border from Jiangzhou and went to the capital together, I was going to leave this morning, I heard that my lord will go to Ezhou in the evening and make a special trip to stay. Xia Guan is the official of Ezhou's parents, and he has already arranged a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust, and then Lord Wang went over and went to the banquet together, but Lord Jia must come to pick up Lord Wang in person at the dock, and his colleagues are affectionate, which can be seen. ”
He smashed his lips, and then said: "Master Meng Heng, the envoy of the Jinghu system, and Master Dong Huai, the envoy of the system along the river, are in Jiangling City dozens of miles away at this time, if the two of them leave tomorrow, the boat will go fast along the river, and maybe they can catch up with them and go to the capital together." ”
This means a lot, first, to show that the two of you meet tonight, but I didn't arrange it, it was Jia Yidao who insisted on coming, and it has nothing to do with me. Second, don't look at the official university, the true god who may be pressing you is not far in front, and he will make trouble and stab him, no one will look good on the face, everyone is an official, you can take care of it.
At the end, he added: "This time, the two adults are busy with official business, and the court is in a hurry, there must be something important, don't drink too much tonight, otherwise you miss a big event, and the lower officials can't afford it, hahaha." ”
He smiled, like a Maitreya Buddha in a temple.
When Changsun Hong heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Wen, only to feel that this magistrate was chubby and cute, as if he was honest and honest, but in fact, he didn't leak a drop of water when he spoke, and he was a veteran of officialdom.
When Jia Rudao and Wang Kui heard this, they both frowned slightly.
Jia Rudao turned his head slightly, looked at the soldiers standing behind him, and when he turned back again, his face was already full of frost, and he also heard what Chen Wen meant, and asked him not to make trouble here.
However, the fire in his heart is not Jia Nidao if it doesn't come out.
He swept his gaze and looked at them one by one among the people beside Wang Kui, and said with a salty and indifferent mouth: "Lord Chen's good intentions, Jia Mou understands it, don't worry, I didn't come here to drink." ”
Gritting his teeth, he continued: "Jia has one thing, and he wants to take the opportunity of Lord Wang to come over and ask an adult in Xichuan to understand. ”
Without waiting for Wang Kui to answer, Jia Rudao twisted his eyes, and the flesh on his face twitched and hissed: "Rongzhou regimental training envoy Sun Hong!" I heard that you are also here, can you come out and say a few words to Jia! ”
