Yuan Ping said: "The east of the river is based on Heng Mountain, the west is based on the river, the south is Shouyang, Taihang, and the north is Turkic. Since ancient times, it has been a soldier. ”

Liu Ye and his entourage stayed in Fenzhou for four days, visiting mountains and rivers, and Yuan Ping has always been by his side. Leaving Fenzhou, the group came to Ulzhou.

The county guard of Ulzhou is a person who can do things, Liu Ye and his party came to the government office, and the county guard personally arranged food and accommodation.

"It is a great honor for the adults to come to guide the work. Thin wine and vegetarian dishes for the adults and their entourage. "The county guard was courteous.

Pei Wen and the others couldn't help but sigh, looking at the hospitality of others, looking at Yuan Ping, that is, Liu Ye is good at talking, and if he is someone else, he has to think that the county guard is despising the chief and disobeying discipline.

Liu Ye: "Your Excellency, we are here to survey the terrain, so we don't have to bother with a lot of fanfare, it's easy to do." Let's start with a visit to the neighboring towns. ”

Liu Ye drank two cups of tea, got up and left with Pei Wen and the others. The county warden personally accompanied. Ulzhou is rich in products, and Ulzhou has helped in the relief of the Fenzhou disaster.

Have a light lunch at a nearby village at noon. When the local people saw the county keeper, they were all respectful, and when they ate in the village house, the whole village participated.

"My lord, this is my hen, stew chicken for adults to replenish their bodies." An old man brought a hen.

The courtyard of the Li Chang's house is full of guests, and villagers visit from time to time. Liu Ye, Pei Wen and the others sat down to rest by the stone mill in the courtyard.

"My lord, the grass people send a sheep and stew mutton for the adults to eat." An old woman came with a sheep.

The county guard stood outside the chai gate and kept greeting the villagers. Liu Ye walked out of the chaimen and stood with the county guard.

A woman carried two baskets of jujubes and gave them to the county guard. Liu Ye asked, "Sister-in-law, why do you want to send dates to Lord County Guard?" ”

When the woman saw that Liu Ye was young and wearing soft armor, she thought that she was the general next to the county guard. "Sir, we love the people like sons, and when we learn that people have come here, we just want to do our best to let you know the hearts of our people."

The county keeper said to the women, "This is the lord who loves the people like a son in your mouth, and he is the lord of the festival degree, and he has come to observe the people's feelings." ”

The woman wanted to kneel and kowtow to apologize, looking a little nervous, not knowing that she had inadvertently bumped into the big man. Liu Ye stretched out his hand to hold it weakly, "In the future, I hope that my sister-in-law will continue to love and support Lord County Shou." ”

The county guard was dressed in a splendid robe, and he was traveling in civilian clothes, and the villagers still recognized him at a glance. Willow Leaf: "My lord, please bow to Willow Leaf." The Lord is a beloved official of the Li people. The worship of willow leaves is for the people's love for adults. ”

The county keeper crossed hands and willow leaves bowed to each other. Jiang Yao followed Liu Ye's side, he kept quietly watching Liu Ye, Liu Ye was really different from what it used to be. The weak girl back then is now in charge of one party.

The key is that he has a good command and is quite disciplined in the appointment and management of state and county officials. Looking at the attitude of Pei Wen, He Jin and other officials towards Liu Ye, he was able to unify the minds of his subordinates in a short period of time.

The group returned to the government office in the evening, and the county guard held a banquet, and the delicacies were served like water. There are more than a dozen delicacies on everyone's table, and the dishes are exquisitely made.

Sanglu wine, Biro cherry, roast venison, Geluo River, honey cheese, roast suckling pig ·

The county guard explained: "I like food on weekdays, so the chefs of the government can compare their cooking skills with those of the restaurants in the capital under my strict supervision. ”

If it weren't for the fact that in the village, there were people who showed love and respect for the county guard, and Liu Ye would not have misunderstood the county guard. Eating and drinking are extravagant and wasteful, and dressing up is like a hedonistic Tai Sui.

Liu Ye smiled: "Adults pay attention to the quality of life, which is the embodiment of Ulzhou's wealth. Just imagine, if Ulju is a poor mountainous area, how can adults pay attention to delicious ingredients. ”

The county shou retorted: "My lord, I don't agree with what you say, the quality of life is not about the ingredients, but about your attitude of paying attention to the quality of life. For example, if we are in a poor mountainous area, the wild fruits in the mountains, you pick them and eat them, which is a usage. The fruit is buried in the ground and fermented to make a sweet sake. Another usage. ”

Pei asked: "I appreciate the style of the county keeper, the bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring stone is upstream." Quality of life lies in the state of mind, not in the environment. ”

Jiang Yao is still a quiet guest. He raised his glass and brought it to his lips. The county guard toasted to him from afar. "This son, although he doesn't say much, I don't know why, but I consider you a confidant in my heart."

Jiang Yao smiled: "Each other, Jiang also agrees with each other in his heart. ”

The county guard walked over and picked up the wine jug, "Just for the free and easy of the son, you and I meet the mountains and flowing water." ”

Jiang Yao put down the wine glass and picked up the wine jug, "If you don't give up, the younger brother is willing to call him brother." ”

The two smiled at each other and drank the wine from the jug. Pei Wen and the others didn't dare to drink bitterly, they had something to do. The county guard and Jiang Yao drank I don't know how many cups, after the banquet. The county guard grabbed Jiang Yao: "My lord, I'll borrow your friend." ”

He dragged Jiang Yao back to his dormitory. The two played against each other in the room, talked about Taoism, and didn't sleep all night. The next day, Liu Ye wanted to leave later, but he didn't expect Jiang Yao and the others to come early and knock on the door.

"My lord, my lord, it's time for breakfast." Willow Leaf was dressed and came out of the room. "You two are too late to see each other."

The county keeper laughed; "The virtuous brother is a great hidden in the world."

Jiang Yao: "The talent of the elder brother and the management of the county are tantamount to killing chickens with a knife." ”

Of course, the breakfast is rich and varied, and it is not a simple ingredient such as noodle soup, porridge and water. There are no less than a dozen exquisite dim sum side dishes.

Pei Wen; "My lord, can you use your private power to poach the big chef here and bring him to Jinyang."

Willow; "No, don't you see the weight of the county guard in the hearts of the people of Limin. I'm afraid of using my own power, and the chef will cook for me, and I will sneak laxatives. ”

Everyone laughed. The group had breakfast and set off towards Monty Python Mountain. The county guard changed into a tight-fitting suit today, with a sword hanging from his waist, and he had a bit of a chivalrous demeanor.

"Brother, are you going to subdue the dragon and subdue the tiger?" Jiang Yao asked.

"Brother Xian, my lord, they go to survey the terrain, we can desert, I will take you to hunt, and give them game to ensure supply."

"I'll see it." Jiang Yao agreed.

The county guard: "My lord, we meet at that temple on the mountain. Leave. ”

He hit the horse and ran away first, Jiang Yao: "Farewell." He followed.

Liu Ye smiled and watched the two run away for a while. Pei Wen has itchy hands, he also likes to hunt. "My lord, if we don't delay it for a day, it will be a day."

Pei Wen's eyes were full of expectation, and Liu Ye couldn't bear to brush his heart, so he nodded in agreement. "General Pei, let's rest for a day."
