Chapter 116: Jing Cheng (I)

"Stepping on the bumpy ~ into the road ~ fighting the hardships and dangers, and starting again ~ ah, set off again!"

Bai Mo rode on a white horse, indulging in the lyrics of this old version of Journey to the West, and slowly covered his ears when he heard it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

They had already walked to the junction of Gyeonggi and Zhao, Jingchengkou.

Since ancient times, Jingchengkou has been a battleground for soldiers, and now it belongs to Gyeonggi, and it is the gateway to the east of Gyeonggi, and if Zhao rises up in rebellion one day in the future, there will be a big war in Jingchengkou. Ma Tulong had already mapped the topography of Jingchengkou in detail, so Bai Mo and the others did not stay too much again, after passing the customs, they continued to go all the way east, and the county order of Jingcheng County had already set up a reception banquet, and it was said that they were waiting outside the city gate of Jingcheng County.

Jingchengkou belongs to Gyeonggi, but Jingcheng County is already the fiefdom of Zhao Guangzhong, the Duke of Zhao, so there is no need to put up a battle to greet it. However, it is also good to exchange feelings, Bai Mo is in a very comfortable mood now, he has been a Beijing official for a month before, this is the first time to "go to the countryside to inspect", go to the local area to shake his majesty, how can he not eat him for a few days?

Xu gradually looked sad and couldn't raise his interest.

"Xu Meiren, what's wrong with you?"

"Just thinking of some old things." Xu gradually muttered with a wistful expression, "Many years ago, it was here that I met her. Many years later, it was here that she met the man with the surname Lee. ”

"I don't understand some things, it stands to reason that no matter how much you look like your family wealth or anything else, you don't know how much higher than that Li Yuanwai, how did you end up in this field?"

Xu gradually laughed miserably: "To be honest, I don't understand either. ”

The road from Jingcheng Pass to Jingcheng County is not very long, as if in a blink of an eye, you can already see the city wall of Jingcheng County in the distance. There is a flag every ten steps on the city wall, and the Zhao character flag and the Jin character imperial flag are staggered. In the county seat of every vassal state under the rule of the Great Jin Dynasty, there is such a scene, Bai Mo doesn't know if there is any in the history of China in his previous life, anyway, there is here.

This was the semi-feudal era.

What Xu gradually didn't know was that for Bai Mo, this was also a place worth remembering. Back then, he and Li Twelve had fled for more than half a year, and Jingcheng was the southernmost place they had ever visited. When I traveled the world with my master, I also revisited my old place here, and today, I have arrived here for the third time.

The scenery along the road still has a sense of familiarity.

Lu Xifeng, the county commander of Jingcheng County, saw that the characters who had been waiting for a long time had already arrived, and he was busy calling the gong and drum team to make a noise, and he took the lead with a smile on his face. And Bai Mo here, he and Xu gradually took the lead side by side, Ma Tulong, Wang Junqing and others followed, and Meng Yu sat alone in the carriage, which made him the head of this trip.

Lu Xifeng ran to the front with a smile on his face, and behind him was a group of women dancing with their sleeves, which not only reminded Bai Mo of the scene where Huang Shilang picked up Zhang Mazi in "Let the Bullets Fly", but the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Oh, the two of you are so personable and magnificent, I'm afraid they are Bai County Ling and Xu County Lieutenant, right? Xiaguanjing County ordered Lu Xifeng to give the two adults the wind! ”

Bai Mo smiled: "Good name, Lu Xifeng, when you were born, did the west wind blow just right?" ”

"Exactly!" Lu Xifeng laughed and said: "The name of the county lieutenant Xu is well deserved, admire and admire!" ”

"I'm Bai Mo." Bai Mo pointed to Xu Yan beside him and said, "This is the county lieutenant Xu." ”

Xu gradually said lightly: "Lu County Order, if you set up a banquet, please disperse, I don't have time to stay here." ”

As soon as Xu Yan's voice fell, Bai Mo retorted: "Don't, Bai is tired, and he is thinking about resting for two days, Lu County Order, I will bother one or two in these two days, and please Haihan!" ”

"No problem! Don't say two days, welcome. Don't say two days, even if it's two months or two years, Lu will definitely not snub the two distinguished guests! Please! ”

The gongs and drums were noisy, and in this way, Bai Mo, Xu Jian and others entered the county seat of Jingcheng.

Meng Yu sat in the carriage and muttered to himself, "This is going into the city?" The county order really doesn't understand the rules, so he didn't even come to see the old man! ”

On the other side, Bai Mo was chatting with Lu Xifeng about the local customs and customs, from history to characteristics, but not about governance and politics. After all, Lu Xifeng is an official of the vassal states, even if Bai Mo is still a court lieutenant, he can't control this.

When talking about the food in the city, Bai Mo suddenly asked, "Is Sun Laosan's cake shop still open?" ”

"Huh? Bai Xianling has not been to Jingcheng before? Lu Xifeng looked suspicious.

Bai Mo smiled: "Lu County Ling forgot it so quickly? When I first came here, the county order was your old man's house, and it had been seven or eight years, why did you still rely on this position and not leave? ”

Lu Xifeng smiled, and Bai Mo's words made him feel a little kind of affection for this young man. Lu Xifeng sighed and said, "Bai County Order is half of Lu's hometown" before cutting to the point: "Alas, Bai County Order, you don't know, Lu wants to go, but he can't go." It stands to reason that Lu has governed Jingcheng all these years, not to mention that the road is not picked up and the house is not closed at night, so it can be regarded as a simple and quiet rule of the people, and he should have been promoted to a half level, but the above felt that it was ...... The old man is a little too well governed, and Jingcheng is a heavy land, and they are not at ease when they change people, so they ...... Probably Lu is going to die of old age in this position, alas. ”

"Lu County Order, not necessarily." Bai Mo said with a smile: "Zhao Guogong doesn't reuse your old man, but this world is not Zhao Guogong's, if Lu County's order is really annoying in Jingcheng, the court lacks talents, so that the monarch can go to serve the court, Bai is not boasting, I can still say two words to Your Majesty." ”

The words Bai Mo said, in the territory of this Zhao country, can already be regarded as heart-wrenching words, naked digging the foot of the wall. Xu gradually glanced at Bai Mo and said nothing. Lu Xifeng said ashamedly: "The lower officials know that it is not easy for the officials of the imperial court to enter, I have no name on the merry products, and I have not caught up with the great opportunity to open a branch to get scholars, and my ancestors have not received any blessings, it is really ......."

"So what! Now that lieutenant, his name is Wang Dashi, he was just an ordinary soldier in the Jin Wuwei before he became a lieutenant, and now he has already ascended? You can't go to the flow of products, you can't go to the imperial examination, you can't go to the shade and merit, and you can also go to the recommendation department, what do you say? ”

Lu Xifeng's eyes flashed, and he smiled heartily: "With Bai County's order, Lu Mou didn't put those feasts in vain!" Not far ahead is Lu's official residence, please! ”

"Please."

Bai Mo kept a smile on his face.

There are never too many talents, especially those who are not very ambitious.

When Bai Mo and Li Twelve first came to Jingcheng, Lu Xifeng was a well-known official. But there has been no chance to visit, and this time when he came to Jingcheng, he was still a small county order, which really surprised Bai Mo. (To be continued.) )
