Ten miles away from the west gate of Donghai City, Xiao Muzan, who had just returned from Qingpu County, led dozens of officials from Donghai County to wait at the ten-mile long pavilion, the drum band was waiting solemnly, and nearly 100 soldiers were lined up on both sides, and under the sun, the spears were shining with a cold cold light.

The officials were in a pile, discussing one after another, Xiao Muzan's expression was gloomy, his eyes were deep-set, these days in Qingpu County, almost to start with Su Dinghai, but still failed to find evidence of the Su family's crime, but at the scene of the incident saw the word "Han" written by Xiao Jing before he died, shocked, Xiao Muzan quickly reacted that it was deliberately done, Xiao Jing's hand bone was broken, it was impossible to write such a handwriting before he died, and he was even more sure that the Su family was provoking the relationship between Xiao and Han.

He really wanted to continue to stay in Qingpu County as a county guard, at least to continue to find some clues from Su Dinghai's side, and find a trace of so-called justice for his dead son.

But he soon got a report, a report that forced him to rush back to Tokai County.

The imperial court sent a messenger to Donghai County to deal with the matter of taxes and silver! As the county guard of Donghai County and the leader of Donghai County, he must go back to welcome the arrival of the Qin Cha, which cannot be neglected.

Before Xiao Muzan arrived, he learned about the candidate for this mission from Yanjing from the letter from Yanjing.

This time, the person who came to Donghai County was the cousin of King Yan, an influential figure in the royal family, Changde Hou Cao Yin.

And he also knew that the imperial court also had a deputy for Cao Yin, Xiao Tongguang, the household servant.

…….

Under the canopy in the distance, a team of chariots and horses slowly appeared in the sight of the officials of Donghai County, and on the flag raised high, the "Cao" flag fluttered in the wind, and the hunting sounded, so the officials immediately lined up to follow Xiao Muzan and greeted the convoy.

Under the sky, the four carriages came slowly under the escort of nearly 100 ironclad sergeants, and the clothes of the guards showed their identities, which was the "Wolf Armor Battalion", one of the five major battalions of the Yanjing Imperial Forest Army.

The five battalions of the Yanjing Imperial Forest Army, the "Wolf Armor Battalion" is one of them, and the three thousand "Wolf Armor Battalion" warriors are the trump cards in the hands of Changde Hou Cao Yin, and his other identity is the commander of the "Wolf Armor Battalion", one of the few people in the royal family who hold the military power.

The carriage at the front is luxurious and spacious, pulled by two tall horses together, the wheel of the carriage is huge, and the carriage is gold-edged, showing the dignity of the characters inside.

When the carriage and horses stopped, Xiao Muzan led the officials of Donghai County to kneel down, and said in unison: "The lower officials welcome the Hou Ye, may the Hou Ye be a thousand years old and a thousand years old!" ”

A guard on the side of the car immediately stepped forward and lifted the brocade curtain of the carriage, and soon, a noble man dressed in white like snow came out of the carriage, his appearance was extremely handsome, as beautiful as a woman, revealing a feminine atmosphere, and even with a trace of charm between his eyebrows, and his skin was not reflected at all because of the white clothes, but even more snow-white.

The skin is better than snow, and even makes people think that it is a sickly white. If everyone knows that this is a dignified Chang Dehou, a real man, I am afraid that some people will think that this is a Hou Ye who is dressed as a man.

He wore a golden belt around his waist, accompanied by jade spikes, and the middle finger of his right hand carried a jade wrench, which was even more green and faint under the delicate fingers.

Wearing a golden crown, his hair is fluttering and supple.

"Get up." Cao Yin had a smile on his face, and his voice was a little shrill and thin: "You're all here, but it's hard for you." ”

"Don't dare!" The officials said in unison: "Master Hou's bumpy road is hard work." ”

Xiao Muzan led the officials to get up, and with a wave of his hand, the drum band immediately began to play music, which was very lively.

The convoy restarted, and a very small number of officials such as Xiao Muzan and Han Xuanchang sat in a sedan chair, and most of the officials could only follow the team and walked back to Donghai City.

This time, there were four carriages that accompanied Changdehou to Donghai County, one was Changdehou's car, and the other was the car of Xiao Tongguang, the head of the household, but he didn't know who was among the other two carriages, and asked in a low voice, and a familiar official explained in a low voice: "It's not a person in it, it's all some daily necessities, including scrubbing utensils, bronze mirrors, clothes, and even the toilet used by Changdehou is also inside." ”

"It's a long way to go, what are Changdehou doing with these?" The official asked in a low voice, wondering: "Is there any lack of those things in our Donghai County?" ”

"Hou Ye loves cleanliness, and when he goes out, he has to bring his own things. He is not used to things elsewhere, these are things that he needs to use at any time, and he has to use the things he is used to on a daily basis. ”

"I see, I can't imagine that Hou Ye still has this kind of habit!"

"Shhhh Want to die? Be careful, be careful! ”

……

The convoy finally entered Donghai City surrounded by all the officials, and the people in the city had already covered the avenues in the city under the prior notice of the Han family's great sect master, whether they wanted to or not, adding a lively atmosphere to the arrival of the Qin Mission.

The convoy finally stopped in front of the imposing county guard's house.

Cao Yin lifted the curtain, and with the support of the guards, he got out of the car, first looked at the magnificent county guard's mansion, then looked left and right, showed a smile, and asked Xiao Muzan: "Yes, Lord Xiao, where does Benhou go back and rest?" ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, Xia Guan has cleaned up a wide and elegant courtyard in the mansion, and the Hou Ye will not give up, but he can rest there." Xiao Muzan said respectfully.

Cao Yin frowned, groaned slightly, and then said, "Has Lord Han Xuanchang Han arrived?" ”

Han Xuanchang immediately stepped out of the ranks, knelt down and said, "The lower official is here, I've seen Master Hou!" ”

Cao Yin showed a kind smile on his face, and immediately stepped forward to personally help Han Xuanchang up, and said gently: "Lord Han is really as gentle and elegant as rumored, and his appearance is dignified. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Han Xuanchang said humbly: "The name does not live up to the truth, and the officials are ashamed!" ”

Cao Yin took Han Xuanchang's hand and said cordially: "Ben Hou heard in Yanjing that Lord Han has been a famous beautiful man in Donghai City since he was a child. ”

The officials around were a little stunned, how could Master Hou talk about his appearance as soon as he got out of the car?

Han Xuanchang was just respectful and humble.

"Is there a place for this marquis in Lord Han's mansion?" Cao Yin's shrill voice said softly: "In this yamen, the official spirit is too heavy, and Benhou is afraid that he will not be used to it." ”

Han Xuanchang immediately said: "If you can get the Hou Ye to collapse, Sansheng is lucky, and the lower official immediately asked people to go back to the house to prepare." ”

"Good!" Cao Yin smiled and nodded, and gently patted Han Xuanchang's hand: "I'm sorry." ”

Xiao Muzan frowned, Cao Yin's move, if there is no other reason, is obviously showing favor to the Han family, but in this way, it puts the Xiao family in an embarrassing place, but since Cao Yin took the initiative to propose, what can he say?

At this time, a person came up from behind, dressed in official uniform, thin and weak, nearly fifty years old, although he looked quite shrewd and gloomy, but his eyes were not bright, his steps were vain, and he looked like he had been hollowed out by wine, and he staggered forward, and the officials immediately saluted: "The lower officials see Lord Shilang!" ”

This little old man, who has a very poor complexion and vain steps, is none other than Xiao Tongguang, the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission, Xiao Tongguang, who is the servant of the official household department, and runs errands under Han Xuandao, the secretary of the household department.

The six departments of the Yan Kingdom are not controlled by any one family, and the officials and families in the middle are mixed with each other, because they are afraid that the family will have sole power, if there is no mutual constraint, I am afraid that even the cabinet is sometimes difficult to control.

Xiao Tongguang is the younger brother of the current Taishi of the head of the Xiao family, and compared with his elder brother who is the Taishi, this younger brother is too inferior in terms of talent and personality.

He looked sleepy, waved his hand, and said, "Don't be formal." Turning to Han Xuanchang and said: "Lord Han, this official is not used to living in the yamen, if he can vacate the land, he will also arrange a house for this official." ”

"The subordinate obeys his orders~!" Han Xuanchang said immediately, but he was quite reluctant in his heart, after all, in the back garden of the Han family, there is a deep secret, these two guys will live in it for at least a few days, but don't go wrong.

Xiao Tongguang glanced at Xiao Muzan on the side, his expression was gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "You did a good thing." Xiao Muzan shuddered.

"Lord Han, these things, just bother you to let people transport them to your house first." Cao Yinrourou smiled softly: "When you settle the house, you can use it." ”

"Yes!" Han Xuanchang agreed, and immediately ordered his subordinates to transport Cao Yin's things to the Han Mansion first, and even sent someone to inform Mrs. Han to quickly pack up the two courtyards and come out, so that Chang Dehou and Xiao Tongguang, the household servant, could live temporarily.

The Han Mansion covers an extremely large area, even if it frees up ten and eight courtyards, let alone two courtyards.

Cao Yin was the first to enter the yamen, his steps were very light and soft, if you only look at his walking movements, it is like a very cultivated aristocratic woman, put on a man, this step makes people feel very demonic!

The main hall of the yamen has already set up tables and chairs, Cao Yin sat on the main seat, and the officials visited again, and then under Cao Yin's instructions, the station should stand, and the seat should be sitting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Ben Hou came this time, so you must know what is going on." Cao Yin smiled softly, his handsome face had a bewitching feeling, that is, men seemed to have a kind of heart-pounding charm, and his voice was sharp and gentle: "The Holy Lord heard that the tax silver of Donghai County was robbed, he was really angry, you Donghai County can't even keep the tax silver, the Holy Lord asked you, what else can you do?" ”

The hall was silent for a while, and only the breathing of the officials of Donghai County was heard, and many people were already in a cold sweat.
