Chapter 101: The county order is invited

The person who came was unimpressed by Mu Xian's coldness, and still said enthusiastically: "Master He and Mrs. He don't know my master, my master is the county commander of Qi County, Xiangzhou, I heard that Master He is in the military business, my master wants to get acquainted with the old lady of your lord, so he asked the little one to come and invite the old lady to come over for a gathering." ”

Hearing that the other party was a local county order, Mu Xian was about to say yes when he said yes, so he snorted and swallowed it again.

Turning his head to look into the room.

The two people sitting in the room could hear the voices outside.

Luo Xiaoran's face was also silent, but in his heart, he wanted to rush out and refuse this invitation that sounded like a Hongmen banquet, but he had to compromise because he thought of the purpose of Murong Jie's trip.

Murong Jue still looked at the travelogue in his hand intently, and only responded perfunctorily.

"I'll be free tomorrow."

Without waiting for Mu Xian to relay, the face of the little guy guarding the door had already bloomed, and he said happily: "The little one appreciates the face of our master and Mrs. He, tomorrow afternoon, our lord will be waiting for the lord and Mrs. in the house." ”

After sending the little guy away, Mu Xian pondered silently, and his expression gradually became clear from the initial confusion, "Brother," he asked guessingly, "Could it be that the movement of our tracking caravan is too big and has attracted the attention of the government?" ”

Murong Jue sat on the side of the old god and turned the page with one hand: "It's not the county order, but the person above." ”

"Huh?" Mu Xian's eyes widened slightly, "Then since the people above have noticed us, why does my brother still accept the invitation of the county order and go to his mansion?" Will it be dangerous? ”

Murong Jue said more and more casually, "No." ”

Words are like gold.

Only one Muxian child who got the answer but couldn't figure it out was left entangled in the same place.

Luo Xiaoran looked at Mu Xian, who was already able to take the initiative to think and analyze things, and was pleased that he had made great progress, so he didn't take the initiative to help him solve his doubts, and let him figure it out by himself.

I was thinking about what I should use tomorrow as an excuse so that I wouldn't go to the county government with Murong Decision.

The reason why the other party would let a county magistrate come to invite them was actually because he didn't dare to make a decision to move them lightly before he knew whether they were black or white, so he would let the county magistrate take the opportunity to find out their details.

Naturally, there would be no danger.

Just when Luo Xiaoran was pondering whether to pretend to be an inappropriate excuse for menstrual affairs, he heard Murong Jue throw a sentence lightly: "No matter what you use tomorrow as an excuse, you can't escape from going to the county magistrate's mansion." ”

The smile instantly mottled Luo Xiaoran's face.

Is this man a roundworm in her stomach?

Luo Xiaoran glared at him angrily and turned his head to ignore him.

——

On the morning of the next day, the carriage on the county mansion was waiting at the door of the inn early, and after Luo Xiaoran and Murong Du finished changing, they carried the two to the mansion.

In addition to a coachman, there was also the little guy who came yesterday to pick them up.

Along the way, Luo Xiaoran tried his best not to get out the personal information about the county order and his wife from the mouth of the little girl, and only knew the basic news that the county order's surname was Zhu.

The carriage led them all the way into the inner courtyard of the mansion before they were allowed to come down and walk to the flower hall where the guests were to be received.

In the eyes of Luo Xiaoran, a time-traveler who has been poisoned by modern costume film and television dramas, the layout of this flower hall is exquisite, and the table and chair decorations are even more expensive, so that people can see it at a glance.

In such a poor territory in Xiangzhou, the dignified parents and officials actually live in such a good mansion, which makes people feel that there are many problems here.

The two waited in the flower hall for a while, and the owner of this mansion came belatedly.

The county magistrate's disc-like face, pea-like eyes, and the flesh of his cheeks hit the cheeks when he laughed, and he didn't have the harmonious appearance that a parent official should have. The waist is thick and the body is rich, even the soft and fine clothing and fabric can't cover the greasy body underneath, and he is alive and well off the image of a traitorous rich man.

The women around the county order are extremely beautiful, with a small and delicate figure, a face like a crescent moon, bright clothes, and a good face.

The two of them stood together, quite a sense of déjà vu of a beauty and a beast.

When the county commander saw Murong Jue and Luo Xiaoran, a trace of surprise flashed on his face, especially when he swept Luo Xiaoran, the coveting color in his eyes was even more obvious. Fortunately, he still took care of his face, so he took his eyes off Luo Xiaoran's face, "Two of you sit, come here, take a good Longjing before the rain to entertain distinguished guests!" ”

Immediately, a maid received the order and retreated from the flower hall with her hands tied.

Murong Jue had a cold face, he had no intention of having a relationship with this county magistrate, and wrote all the indifference on his face, "When will the county magistrate come to us?" With that said, let's go. ”

The county order was stunned again.

I didn't expect Murong Jue's attitude to be so cold.

Ordinary people will be respectful to him because of his status as a county magistrate, or because of his luxurious mansion decorations, no one will be so unkind to him, and the other party is still a businessman!

This damn merchant!

Shinong industry and commerce, here, the status of merchants is really not high.

Even if Murong Jue and his party were in the name of doing munitions business, it couldn't change the fact that the merchant had a low status.

The county order has always been touted and closed, but suddenly Murong Jue lost face like this, and the look on his face was immediately difficult to see: "This official is the county order and parent official of this side, so he is responsible for the safety of the people in this area." In recent years, there have been few tourists here, let alone merchants who smell of copper. Seeing that your whereabouts are really suspicious, this official should arrest you and put you in prison for a good interrogation! ”

The implication is that you should not toast or eat or drink.

If it were an ordinary person, it was likely to be frightened by the word "prison" in the county order.

But who is Murong Jue, he is a former Qin king who has good means, and the current king, how could he ever be afraid of a county order?

Hearing this, he only raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and replied in a leisurely tone, "Yes, it should be." ”

The sentence seems to give the county order an incomparably big face, but his natural temperament, the charm of his gestures, and the light and frivolous tone when he says this, it is more like making fun of the county order.

Sure enough, the county order immediately took the case, "You are so bold! Even the official dares to despise it! ”

"Yes and what."

Murong Jieyun was light and light, and when he said this, his expression was calm, as if he was saying that today was really a good day.

Even Luo Xiaoran was shocked by his words and turned his head to look at him.

Didn't they come to hear the news? Aren't you going to go deep into the tiger's den in Longtan? This hasn't started yet, and the gatekeeper has been offended, how to go next?

The county commander was angry and had no reason, and slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground, the porcelain pieces splashed everywhere, and the fierce gasp snorted, "Bold!" Outrageous! This official wants you to pay for what you just said! With that, he roared out of the door: "Someone! Where have all the people died? Hurry up and rack the torture tools for Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu wants to execute himself! ”

Seeing the angry appearance of the county commander, where did the little guy below dare to delay for a moment?

After a while, the two tiger chairs were moved to the flower hall, and there were four people who were dressed up as catchers, all of whom were strong, tendon and muscle, and full of horizontal faces, and they knew at a glance that they were not easy to mess with.

After the four of them were killed, they walked towards Murong Jue and Luo Xiaoran viciously.

Without waiting for Murong to make a decision to protect Luo Xiaoran behind him, the county commander jumped up first and scolded: "Bastard thing!" Idiots with their brains full of mud! Lao Tzu is asking you to arrest that man, who let you move the beauty! ”

Luo Xiaoran: ......

After the four of them responded tremblingly, they changed their goal and walked towards Murong Jue.
