Chapter 108: Departure back to town

As the sun set, outside the east gate of Border City County, Zhang Tie, who was riding on a heavy gray grassland horse, looked at Border City and County, turned around and drove his horse into the distance.

"Biancheng County, I'll be back soon."

......

Just when Zhang Tie set off to return to Bloody Town. Far away at the east gate of Beicheng, a man with a hat led a white horse and entered the capital of Yan Kingdom, Beicheng, before closing the city gate.

"Beicheng, I'm back again."

He entered the city gate with the hat man and paid the money, and when he raised his head, through the hat he could see a face with ears higher than his eyebrows, eyebrows longer than his eyes, and a straight nose and bright eyes. It's just that there is some dust fluttering at this time, obviously he is in a hurry all the way, this person is not someone else, Guo Sheng Guo Nanshu, the official border city county lord Bo Guo Mingjian's family.

Guo Sheng walked all the way, walking on the street, and when he passed by an inn, Guo Sheng frowned and looked at the gray servant, and was about to take a step, wanting to go to the inn to wash himself first.

Then as soon as he took a step, Guo Sheng retracted his feet and continued to walk forward, "It's not okay now, it's been so many days, and I'm not in a hurry, I'll send the letter to Lord He first." ”

Thinking of the heavy responsibility given to him by the master, Guo Sheng had to let go of the desire to take a bath in his heart, led the horse, and walked towards his goal.

......

Knock knock!

There was a knock on the door at dusk, which was particularly loud.

Guo Sheng led the horses and stood in front of the back door of a courtyard, quietly waiting for the people in the yard to come and open the door.

The eyes of the two fast catchers stared at Guo Sheng from time to time, and their seemingly relaxed bodies were actually as long as Guo Sheng moved, these two could quickly rush in front of Guo Sheng.

Shortly after the knock on the door, footsteps could be heard from inside the courtyard.

Chirping!

The door was slowly opened from the inside, and when it was halfway open, the door stopped opening and a head came out of the crack in the door.

The person who showed his head looked very cautious, first looked left and right, and then faced Guo Sheng with his wrinkled face, staring at him for a short time, and then opened the small door completely, revealing his short body, making way for Guo Sheng, obviously knowing Guo Sheng.

Guo Sheng led the horses into the courtyard, he knew that there was a small horse house in the courtyard of the back door, which was specially built, as for what reason, it was unknown.

The short old man glanced at the two trappers leaning against the tree in the distance, smiled, nodded, and closed the door.

The two catchers leaning against the tree also nodded at the old man, expressionless, and after the small door was closed, they continued to patrol.

As soon as the door was closed, the little old man's face suddenly changed, and he whispered to Guo Sheng: "Nanshu, why are you here?" Is there something wrong with Biancheng County? ”

The little old man's eyes are not ordinary vicious, from Guo Sheng's dress, he guessed that Guo Sheng must be in a hurry, otherwise he would not still come to the door when it was almost dark, and he still didn't dress up, looking sloppy and dusty.

Guo Sheng nodded heavily, and took out the letter from Guo Mingjian from his arms, "Yes, uncle, in the evening seven days ago, the newly appointed county commander appeared in Biancheng County, and I think it is now in office." ”

"This is a letter written by the master, let me personally hand it over to Lord He."

"The new county commander of Biancheng County!"

The old man looked shocked, his body suddenly stiffened, and he felt that his body and mind were hit by a cold current.

"How is it possible, the adults have already sent people!"

The old man covered his mouth, and the rest of the words were not spoken, which made Guo Sheng on the side look puzzled, but it was not good to ask more.

Thinking of the consequences of being discovered by the new county magistrate, the old man's heart was even more cold, suppressing the coldness in his heart, Lao Tzu shook his body, pointed to a big tree in the courtyard, and said to Guo Sheng.

"The horses are tied to that tree first, I will take you to meet the adults, remember not to ask more and see more later, you must ask less and look less, remember?"

The old man's reminder made Guo Sheng's heart warm slightly, knowing that this was related to him, he nodded, tied the white horse to the tree, and followed the old man towards the inner courtyard.

All the way forward, it can only be said that it is worthy of the courtyard of the officials in Beicheng, whether it is large or decorated, it is countless times better than the backyard of the county government in the border city.

The two entered a small courtyard, and when they came to a study, the old man first knocked lightly on the door.

"Who?"

There was an inquiry from inside the room, and the voice seemed to be tired.

"Master, Guo Sheng of Border City County has an urgent matter to see."

The little old man whispered to the door of the room, which would not be noisy and could be heard by the people in the room.

"Border City? Guo Sheng? Let him in. ”

Hearing this, the little old man slowly pushed open the door of the study, recruited Guo Sheng, and after Guo Sheng came over, he gestured to the house with his eyes, his lips moved slightly, and reminded him in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Remember, look less, ask less." ”

Guo Sheng nodded solemnly, walked towards the house with heavy steps, and the little old man gently closed the door again after Guo Sheng walked in, and stayed outside the study.

......

Syllable!

"You mean that the county magistrate of Biancheng County has taken office?!"

The book fell to the ground and made a slight noise, He Kun grabbed Guo Sheng's shoulders, his hands were bruised, and he asked Guo Sheng in disbelief.

Enduring the pain in both shoulders, Guo Sheng nodded, and after saying it again, he raised his right hand with difficulty and handed over the letter written by Guo Mingjian.

"My lord, this is a letter from my uncle."

Letting go of the hands that grabbed Guo Sheng's shoulders, He Kun frowned, took the envelope in Guo Sheng's hand, and walked to the desk.

With the help of the light, I first checked the seal of the letter, and after confirming that it was complete, I tore off the fire paint, pulled out the envelope, and looked at the contents of the letter.

Guo Sheng on the side lowered his head and unconsciously put his hands behind his back, in order to alleviate the pain in his arms, "Sure enough, a military general was born, this strength is not small, hiss, it really hurts." ”

After a while, He Kun, who had read the letter, frowned slightly, and did not talk about the content of the letter, but looked Guo Sheng up and down, and asked him: "Are you Guo Zhengpeng's nephew?" ”

Guo Sheng, who lowered his head, still lowered his head and replied: "Yes, my lord, Guo Zhengpeng is my uncle, and he patted me to help Guo Mingjian." ”

He Kun looked at Guo Sheng, who was bowing his head, and thought for a while, and sat on the chair, "I have already read the letter, you stay in my house for a few days first, and then let you send the letter back." ”

Without waiting for Guo Sheng to answer, He Kun shouted directly outside the door: "Zhengpeng, take your nephew to find a guest room at will, he will rest here for a few days, you can bring him more in these days." ”

"Yes, sir."

Guo Zhengpeng, who had been guarding outside the door, pushed open the door, stood at the door, and shouted to Guo Sheng, who was bowing his head: "Nanshu, let's go." ”

After Guo Zhengpeng took Guo Sheng away, He Kun picked up the letter on the table again, put it back in the envelope, and then hurriedly walked out of the study with it in his arms.

"I have to tell Master Xiang about this matter quickly."
