"General Li is busy with official business, and now he has taken the time to come to the cold house in his busy schedule, and the old man has missed the welcome, and he hopes to forgive his sins. Come, General Lee, tea, please. ”

"Ben will go to the Zhizhou Mansion to find Lord Zhizhou to discuss something, and was told by the same Zhizhi Lord Wu that because of Ling Lang's affairs these days, the Lord has been at home, so Ben will come to disturb Lord He. Because of the urgency of the matter, I did not submit a prayer post first, and I hope that Lord He will not be surprised. ”

In the Zhizhou Mansion, in Lord He's study, Lord Li, the general of the East China Sea, picked up the bowl of catechu on the table in front of him, shook his head, blew a few breaths gently, took a small sip, and then put down the tea bowl and said loudly to He Zhizhou, who was sitting on the other side of the table.

"General Li is busy, he must have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and he doesn't know what to do with the old man." He Zhizhou's voice was a little low and a little hoarse: "Recently, all the official affairs of the Zhizhou Yamen, the old man has been fully entrusted to Wu Tongzhi. General Li came to my house, and if he wanted to talk about business, he would be exempted. The general still went to the Zhizhou Yamen to find the same master. ”

"Lord He is worried about the matter of He Gongzi, and he will feel the same for this. However, as far as Ben Jiang knows, under the rocks of the collapsed water curtain cave, no trace of the second miss of the Liu family and Ling Lang was found, only the corpse of an old Taoist priest who did not know the source and some human internal organs, so Ling Lang He Gongzi should be fine. According to Ben Jiang's inference, it is very probable, it is very likely that these two talented young men and beautiful couples went to the surrounding prefectures to play on the day of the festival. Let's just say that Huai'an Mansion and Jiangning Mansion have more interesting places. Young people, it's a good spring, and it's normal to go out for ten days and a half months. It's just that this was not told to the parents at home in advance, but it was a bit inappropriate. Maybe as soon as he comes back one day, he will be able to drink Ling Gongzi's happy wine. Hahaha......"

"This? What General Li said was very true, but why did the old man's horseman, Ngawang, come back that day and report it, and said......"

"Huh? Lord He, how can the words of an old and dizzy groom be counted, everything must be told by facts. Ben Jiang had just heard from Wu Tongzhi in the Nazhi Prefecture Mansion that those people's internal organs should belong to an elderly man after being judged by Lao Xu, and it is inferred that they should belong to a very old person. Hehehe, Ben will also be very curious, how old can this be very old, can he still be a person who is over 100 years old. I haven't heard of anyone within a hundred miles of this Haizhou boundary. If there is, then it has to be reported to the imperial court step by step. Today's saints are the most admired by those white-haired Sheons who are too old. If there is a person who is over 100 years old in this Haizhou territory, then the previous governors would not have reported it to the imperial court a long time ago, which can be regarded as a great political achievement. Hahaha......"

"This?" Lord He sat in the circle chair on the side of the tea case, and his originally depressed expression actually cheered up a little at this time: "When General Li said this, the old man is ......."

"Okay, okay, Lord He, don't worry. I said that Ling Lang is fine, it's fine, it's not lice on the monk's head - it's obvious. In this case, have someone call the old horseman Ngawang from your house, and ask General Ben to question him. I still don't believe it, this old dizzy-eyed, has he seen it clearly? ”

"This, this, this? How dare you bother General Lee? Don't let the subordinates in the old man's mansion stain the eyes of the general. After a while, I'll come and ask the old Ngawang myself. I don't know what is important for the general to come to the old man's house, please inform the official to know. This official has a number in his heart, and he will definitely let people know about Wu Tongzhi at that time. Don't hide it from General Li, these days, my wife...... Hi, I don't want to eat, I'm already sick in bed. Hi...... I won't mention the official's family affairs. ”

After saying this, Master He raised his right hand slightly and shook it a few times. For a while, he didn't call himself an "old man", but called himself "the official". It seems that this is a bit of spirit, and we can talk about business.

"The reason why Ben will come to find the adult is because the sea in the East China Sea, which began to gradually decline two or three days ago, has begun to rise quietly, and it is not slow to see that the rise. Ben will be worried about ......"

"What? Retreated and risen? This? There are a lot of strange things every year. This official just took office in Layue last year, and he has been ...... in just a few months, less than half a year."

"Lord He, this official has some confidant words, I wonder if Lord He is interested in listening to them?"

Looking at General Li, who suddenly became a little serious, although Lord He was a little suspicious in his heart, he still hurriedly said: "General Li, please speak, this official listens."

"Sixteen years ago, General Ben was still a lieutenant under the former General of the East China Sea, just like my nephew Yunsheng is now. Sixteen years ago, on the March 3rd Festival, there was a sudden wind and rain disaster, and Lord He should have heard of it. ”

"This? I've heard people talk about it, but I don't know too much about it. I just know that not long after that disaster, the governor of Haicheng was taken to the capital and put in prison, and finally it is said that he died of illness in that prison. And today, the two ceremonial ceremonies on the first day of March before the March 3 Festival every year have only begun to receive more and more attention since then, and they have become more and more grand year by year. ”

"Yes, the most grand and grand thing is you, Lord He. The Governor came to watch the ceremony in person, which is unique in the Shangsi Festival ceremony in Haizhou City in the past 16 years. ”

"Where, the lower officials are grateful to the Governor of Liangjiang, Lord Gao, for his love, and to the current saint, and the magistrate of Nahuai County is promoted to the governor of Haizhou, which is not only grateful in his heart, but also deeply responsible. And this time on March 3, the tall people worked tirelessly and came to watch the ceremony in person, and the official felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. This is an official for one term, and it should benefit one party. However, in the past few months since the arrival of this official, he still has no clue and does not know where to start. Every time I think about it, it's really all burning. And now, that's the case. Please also ask General Lee to teach me. ”

When Lord He said this, he suddenly stood up, walked to General Li, who was sitting in the chair, and bowed down with his fists in his fists.

"This, this, this...... It can't be done, it can't be done. General Li hurriedly got up and stood up, stepped forward, supported Lord He's arms with both hands, and helped Lord He who was bending over with his fists in front of him: "Lord He, this is really going to torture the general, why do you need to do this." You and I are both officials in this Haizhou place, one civil and one military, although the responsibilities are different, but they are also serving the emperor and protecting the people on this side, and they should be in the same boat. ”

"General Li is really, really like an ancient gentleman. The officer was deeply impressed. On the day of the Shangshi Festival, you came to the officer to find a way to raise money to improve the living conditions of the barracks of the subordinate sergeants, but the officer was still holding back at first, and now I am really ashamed to think about it. Come on, come on, General Lee, please take a seat. Come on, serve tea, take out the best red robe that I hid, and let General Li taste it. ”
