Chapter 143 - Disappointing Haichang City

Half a month later, a team of people slowly came from outside Haichang County.

The leader raised his head and looked at the city gate, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and sighed: "Haichang County, it's finally here!" ”

"Bo Yan, this is Haichang County, it feels so broken!"

Lu Xun heard the words coming from beside him, glanced at Sun Shangxiang, and shrugged helplessly.

In his opinion, this Haichang county is really as dilapidated as Sun Shangxiang said, it doesn't look like a county town at all, the entire city tower is full of potholes, no matter how you look at it, I don't think that the walls of this city can protect the people in this city.

However, this Haichang County was not governed by him before, and it has nothing to do with him when it becomes like this, so why do you have to ask him!

Although Lu Xun was speechless about Sun Shangxiang's question, seeing a county town become so dilapidated made him frown.

To turn the walls of a city into such a dilapidated appearance must have been met with a strong attack.

However, what he couldn't figure out was that even if this Haichang county town had experienced the attack of war, there should always be time to repair it after that, how could it still be such a scene.

Jiang Qin, who was on the side, knew more than Lu Xun, and rode forward, leaned into Lu Xun's ear and spoke: "Lord, this place is often attacked by Shanyue traitors, so there is no time to repair it!" ”

"Coupled with the troubled times, the county order of Haichang County has also escaped, so that this county has been ungoverned for a long time, so no one will repair this city wall anymore!"

Hearing Jiang Qin's words, Lu Xun also had a certain understanding of Haichang County.

Looking at the broken city wall, Lu Xun sighed lightly, but didn't say anything more, and drove straight towards the city.

Jiang Qin and his entourage who followed behind saw Lu Xun walking towards the city silently, and after glancing at each other, they all sighed, and then they also drove the war horse under their crotch and followed behind.

When Lu Xun entered the city, he saw that there were not too many people on the street, and his brows were even more furrowed.

He really didn't think that there would be a county seat as lifeless as Haichang County.

When the people I met occasionally saw Lu Xun and the others, they only glanced at it and chose to leave quickly.

Lu Xun saw in the eyes of these people who were leaving quickly, and they were deeply jealous of the sudden visit of Lu Xun and his party, and it was obvious that these people were wary of Lu Xun and his party.

Such a scene made Lu Xun's heart feel very uncomfortable, and he couldn't imagine what these people had gone through to become what they were now.

Even Sun Shangxiang, who was jumping all the way, was silent after entering the city.

She also didn't expect that under her brother's rule, there would still be such a place.

Shouldn't it be the same as Wu County?

When the group walked slowly through most of the county and came to the county government, the disappointment in everyone's eyes was even worse.

They had never seen such a dilapidated county magistrate, and it could be said that even the pavilion chiefs in the countryside managed by the pavilion chiefs were much better than this.

Flying off the horse, he walked past the crumbling county gate, and everyone was greeted by a barren scene.

Because no one has taken care of it for many years, the county office at this moment is overgrown with weeds, and the plaque is covered with cobwebs. Tapped the door frame, and a thick layer of dust fell, choking everyone couldn't help coughing.

It stands to reason that even if the county order is gone, the county government should not fall to such a state, at least it should be taken care of by the small officials in the county office. But Lu Xun walked all the way to the back hall, but he didn't even see a figure, and where did the little official come from to manage the county government.

Obviously, this county mansion has been abandoned by the people of the entire Haichang County.

Lu Xun stopped his steps and stood in the back hall, frowning his brows and glancing around, silent.

He didn't know what else he could say at this moment.

Sweeping away the layer of dust accumulated on the table, Lu Xun couldn't help but raise his right hand, his eyes fixed on the dust on his hand, and sighed.

Raising his head, he glanced at Jiang Qin, and said: "Gongyi, you go to the city to inquire about the news, where are these officials who were originally in the county government, there should always be a place to work, otherwise if these people have something, where will they solve it?" ”

"I don't believe it, there is not even a leader in this city, otherwise how could this Haichang County hold out for so long in the hands of the Shanyue rebels!"

Hearing Lu Xun's words, Jiang Qin nodded slightly, and after saying a promise to him, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the mansion.

"Bo Yan, we don't want to live here, do we?"

Lu Xun had just sat on the couch that was sweeping the dust, when he heard Sun Shangxiang's question, raised his head, his eyes looked at Sun Shangxiang tightly, and nodded: "I'm here to be a county magistrate, where do I live if I don't live here?" ”

"Okay, it's a little tattered here, I'll let you help you sort it out!"

Hearing Lu Xun's words, Sun Shangxiang couldn't help but exclaim, she never thought that she really wanted to live in such a dilapidated house.

Originally, the long-term camping had already made Sun Shangxiang feel unbearable, and he thought that he would be better after arriving in the county, but he didn't expect that in the end, he still didn't have a beautiful and spacious house to live in.

But she also knew that what Lu Xun said was right.

Originally, Lu Xun came here on the order of Sun Quan to be the county commander to govern the county seat, where can he live if he doesn't live in the county office?

And she herself came to Haichang County with Lu Xun, and she can be regarded as a member of Lu Xun's party, so how can she be treated specially.

At most, for the sake of her being a woman, Lu Xun asked her to sort out a large room with a slightly remote location, so that she could stay away from them and put a bath bucket in the room for her to bathe.

After all, no matter what, there is a difference between men and women, so you have to pay attention to it.

Sun Shangxiang glanced at Lu Xun, thought about it for a while, and finally listened to what Lu Xun said, and did not plan to move out of the county government to live.

What's more, she has to have a place to live when she moves out!

Along the way, Sun Shangxiang didn't even see an inn that could make people rest.

In this case, if she moves out, will she have to find someone who is willing to take her in to live in her home?

It's simply not possible!

Pouting dissatisfiedly, Sun Shangxiang was going to take a look first, so that he could choose a room in advance, and he had to stay away from those guards.

As for whether it's remote, she really doesn't really care.

Maybe in her heart, she may vaguely want to be closer to Lu Xun.

After Sun Shangxiang left the back hall, Lu Xun rubbed his forehead and sighed. And just after he sighed, the system, which had not been out for a long time, finally sounded in his head again this time......
