Chapter 210: Not Seen
Outside the city of Xiangzhou is much more lively than Gangneung Mansion, and it is also much stricter, and pedestrians entering and exiting can only enter the city by virtue of the registration of the road guide in hand.
A group of soldiers stood at the gate of the city, and after seeing the Bai family and his party from afar, they said to each other, just waiting for the carriage to arrive, and a group of soldiers saluted respectfully.
"Lord Bai ran all the way, and the governor ordered him to come down again to pick up Lord Bai into the city." The leading soldier saluted and stood up straight.
Bai Shiye finally arrived here, and he was relieved in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face, "I'm tired of you." ”
"Lord Bai is polite, please follow me into the city."
"Good!"
A group of soldiers mounted their horses, and the carriage continued on its way. Xiangzhou is much bigger than Jiangling Mansion, and it is also a lot richer, with staggered streets and alleys, and people are buzzing. The streets along the street are full of hawkers, and it is very lively. Along the way, the homeless people outside are very different from the prosperity of the city, and it seems that it is not a year of life.
Bai Qiao lifted the curtain and looked out, but he had a different taste in his heart.
"Miss, let's finally arrive in Xiangzhou." Xia Shuang also looked out, and her heart was surging. This is Xiangzhou City! That's huge! It's like a place out of a drawing book. Look at the clothes they are wearing, the young lady doesn't have such beautiful clothes, if you can rest in Xiangzhou for two days, pull the blue water to buy some for the young lady, and make such a good outfit.
Bi Shui's eyes were also full of surprise, but she was the most faceful maid beside the young lady, and she couldn't show that she hadn't seen the world. If she loses someone, that's a shame for the young lady!
"This Xiangzhou City is really lively, you see there is juggling over there! You can only see it at the Lantern Festival every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival! Outside the carriage, Butterfly Swallow and Snow Swallow were chattering and laughing.
Bai Jin also lifted the curtain and looked out.
It's really lively! Those who look are dazzled! She was busy looking outside, and she couldn't hear what her two little maids said, so she simply put her chin on the frame of the car and kept screaming.
Oh, my God! Even the sugar man in Xiangzhou City is so beautiful! There are also rings worn by the women who are more fresh and chic than those seen in Gangneung Mansion, and the flowers on the golden hairpin are lifelike!
The carriage and horses were not fast, and they saw the scenery of Xiangzhou City all the way, the Governor's Mansion was in the center of Xiangzhou City, and when the group arrived, there were other soldiers waiting outside, and when they saw the team, they walked two steps down the steps of the mansion and stepped forward to salute Bai Shiye.
"Lord Bai went to the mansion to rest, I was tired all the way, I burned the earth dragon in the wing, prepared hot wine, and rested for a while, the governor is still busy, and the governor will invite the adults to come later." The soldier led everyone into the mansion and said respectfully.
Bai Shiye nodded, got off the horse and waited for Mrs. Bai, Zhao and Bai Wei, Bai Qiao and Bai Jin. After they all got out of the carriage, they followed the soldiers all the way into the house. The subordinates in the governor's mansion led a group of soldiers and subordinates to arrange, and after a while, the people were well arranged.
The courtyard prepared for the Bai family is quite spacious, and as soon as he enters the door, a warm breeze rushes up, and the comfortable Bai Jin stretches his eyelids.
After settling the Bai family, the soldiers saluted and left, and the soldiers who had been in charge of greeting them outside the city also left.
"What's wrong?"
"Don't mention it, it's not that Mr. Qian has found out that something is wrong in the account, and the governor is angry!" The soldier sighed and muttered, "So let's talk about General Bai's affairs later, the accounts will be unclear for a while." ”
The soldiers who greeted him outside the city frowned: "Is it much worse?" ”
"Not really! It's a difference of 100,000 taels! ”
"100,000 taels is enough to raise how many soldiers and horses! How could it be so much worse? Where's the difference? ”
"I don't know, the governor is checking it, and the accounts in Shannan Province are estimated to be recalculated."
The two men said and walked away.
The Bai family and the others ate hot wine in the courtyard, which warmed up a lot. After the meal, the people withdrew the wine and food, and served dessert and sweet soup.
Bai Qiao's face was slightly red, and he changed into thin clothes, which made him even more delicate. No matter how old she is, Bai Qiao is only a teenager, so it looks better in this bright color.
Bai Shiye looked outside and sighed, "I won't be able to see the governor today." ”
Zhao twisted the handkerchief in his hand, quite nervous: "But the governor doesn't want to see us?" ”
Bai Shiye looked back at the Zhao family and reprimanded: "The governor is in charge of all the affairs of the entire Shannan Province, and it is very complicated. The Governor isn't the kind of person you think! ”
As soon as Zhao heard this, he quickly shut up, when he was in Jiangling Mansion before, he always said that he would see each other, but how could he have come for an hour and still haven't seen anyone?
"Mother Hugh wants to guess, as soon as Xue Zhong's matter came out before, the governor also sent someone to help. At this moment, there must be something really delayed. Brother Yu reminded. Mother is like this, I don't want to think about it if it's real or fake!
Forget it if her husband said this, and was told by her son, Zhao pouted, clutched the handkerchief tightly, his eyes were red, and he was very depressed. She just said it casually, and they all reprimanded her like this!
"Erniang is a little safe, maybe someone will come to call in a while." Bai Qiao also said. Her voice was faint, but it made the atmosphere in the room less tense.
"Father, is the governor's surname Wu?"
Bai Shiye hummed: "Yes, the surname of the governor is Wu, you should be polite later, don't mess around like a monkey!" The last sentence was to Bai Jin.
Bai Jin stuck out his tongue and should go. This is the Governor's Mansion, give her a boldness, she won't dare to come nonsense!
