Chapter 185: Prefect

Early the next morning, there was a knock on Hua Qingyan's door. Hua Qing opened the door as usual, and smiled at the young official, without yesterday's vigilance at all.

The young official did not have any suspicions, and led Hua Qingyan towards the yamen. However, this time, Hua Qingyan noticed that they were not walking through the back door yesterday, but a side door in the downtown area. Hua Qingyan stopped at the door, and glanced at the official with interest, "Why didn't you go through the back door today?" ”

The young official was a little embarrassed by Hua Qingyan's question, opened his mouth, and didn't come up with a reasonable explanation for a long time. Hua Qingyan didn't expect this official to answer herself, so she smiled and walked in first.

The front yard of the prefect's compound is the county office, and the back yard is where the prefect's family lives. Entering through this side gate, you will find the garden of the prefect's house. Hua Qingyan's gaze fell on the flowers and trees in the garden, and surprise flashed in her eyes. I didn't expect that this prefect's house, there are a lot of cherished and cherished flowers and trees, although they have not opened this season, but from the branches and leaves, Hua Qingyan can judge their variety and state.

I didn't expect this prefect to be quite elegant, but I don't know if it's really elegant or vassal.

"Girl, go this way."

Hua Qingyan followed behind the young official with a nose and a nose, and she was not curious about this prefect's compound at all. Since walking through the garden, Hua Qingyan has not squinted. Until he entered a side hall with this young official.

The young official walked to the side hall and said to Hua Qingyan: "Girl, you wait here for a while, and I will go to inform the son." ”

Hua Qingyan nodded, and when the official left, she looked around. The decoration of the side hall is very atmospheric, there are fair and honest plaques hanging on the hanging beams, and the two rosewood official hat chairs under the plaque look very atmospheric. There is also a row of chairs on either side, apparently for entertaining. Behind the chair on the right is a bogu shelf, on which are placed some porcelain and jade objects, both in color and form, showing their value.

Hua Qingyan turned around and didn't sit down. After all, in an unknown environment, in an unknown situation, her every move may make it difficult for the other party to create opportunities. Hua Qingyan can't let people grab any handles.

After waiting for about half a cup of tea, the prefect has not yet appeared. Hua Qingyan walked to the door of the side hall and looked around, but did not see any figure. She was still surprised, when she heard footsteps and conversations in the distance. Hua Qingyan returned to the side hall and waited silently.

"The arrival of the little marquis really makes me shine in Yao County!" The middle-aged man's voice was full of joy, and if you listen carefully, you can still hear the flattery.

No one seemed to answer him, and the middle-aged man was not annoyed, and still said with a smile: "What is the matter with the little marquis coming to Yao County?" The lower officials will fully cooperate! ”

"Yes." The man who was flattered by the middle-aged man chuckled lightly, his tone noncommittal.

"Yes, yes." The middle-aged man hurriedly said, "The lower officials must overcome all difficulties to cooperate with the little marquis." Little Marquis, you must stay today and let the lower officials entertain you well. ”

The voice got closer and closer, and soon arrived at the door of the side hall, and the figures of Jin Nanshu and a middle-aged man instantly met Hua Qingyan's eyes. The middle-aged man obviously didn't expect the existence of other people in the side hall, and after being stunned for a few seconds, his face sank, "Who are you?" How can it be in my house! ”

Hua Qingyan stood up and glanced at Jin Nanshu beside the middle-aged man, and then looked at the middle-aged man without squinting, and said, "Little woman Hua Qingyan, I have seen this adult." ”

"Why are you here?" The middle-aged man frowned, and carefully looked at Hua Qingyan. Although he was surprised by Hua Qingyan's humility and sighed at Hua Qingyan's good looks, he was 100% sure that he had never seen this girl.

This middle-aged man is the prefect of Yao County, and early this morning, he received a report from the doorman that the little marquis of Zhennan Houfu was coming. 6 Zhi hurriedly got off the bed, and before he had time to tidy up his clothes, he rushed to the gate of the county government and welcomed the little marquis in.

Originally, 6 Zhi was still suspicious, because he was just a local petty official, and he had never seen the little marquis of Zhennan Hou's Mansion at all, so he was a little suspicious of Jin Nanshu's identity, but when he saw Jin Nanshu himself and the jade pendant that represented Zhennan's Hou Mansion, 6 Zhi's suspicion turned into awe.

He didn't know what the little marquis suddenly came to the door, and he couldn't get more accurate news from Jin Nanshu's mouth, so he could only keep smiling with his face. At the same time, he was also happy in his heart, he has been working in this remote small county for ten years, and he doesn't want to rise all the time, but he has never found an opportunity. In his opinion, now that the little marquis has come to the door, it is simply an opportunity given by God, no matter what, he must firmly seize the opportunity!

When he saw Hua Qingyan, 6 Zhi subconsciously glanced at Jin Nanshu, afraid that this little marquis would be unhappy because of this strange girl. However, Jin Nan's writing tone was as usual, and there was a shallow smile on his lips, which was unfathomable in the eyes of 6 Zhi.

Hua Qingyan looked at 6 Zhi and smiled slightly, "It was the prefect who asked me to come and asked me to wait here." Actually, I don't know what happened. ”

Hua Qingyan guessed the identity of this middle-aged man in her heart, this person has a righteous and awe-inspiring Chinese face, but he has a pair of upward hanging eyes, a high nose bridge, and very thin lips. Hua Qingyan couldn't tell whether this person was good or bad, but she could see that this person was not good to get along with.

This person can walk freely in this mansion, and accompany Jin Nanshu's side, his identity must not be low, looking at the momentum of his body when he asked himself, Hua Qingyan guessed that this person may be the biggest official in this county government, the prefect.

Sure enough, the middle-aged man's brows furrowed even more tightly after listening to Hua Qingyan's words, "6 Mingyao came to you?" What did he ask you for? Have you committed anything? ”

"My lord Mingjian, I'm just a mountain village woman, doing some small business to make a living, and I am even more peaceful and self-conscious on weekdays, and I never dare to do anything illegal and undisciplined." Hua Qingyan said with a distressed look on her face, "My lord, yesterday an official messenger came to the door saying that the prefect invited me to come to the door, although I was puzzled, I didn't dare to delay the adults' time, so I came." It's just that I didn't expect the official to let me in through the back door of the government yesterday, I think it's strange, is there a rule for the yamen to invite people to enter through the back door? ”

"Coming in through the back door?" 6 Know, "There is no such rule in the yamen." Besides, the yamen invites people to go directly to the court, and they will not come to the backyard of my mansion at all. ”

6 Seeing Hua Qing's face was embarrassed, he said: "The prefect's son is my son, and the girl is waiting here, so I will send someone to find someone to figure things out." ”

Hua Qingyan looked at 6 Zhi in surprise when she heard this, and then respectfully saluted 6 Zhi, "It turned out to be the prefect, and the little woman was offended." ”

6 Zhi waved his hand: "Those who do not know are not guilty, you wait." 6 Zhi looked at Jin Nanshu again, and said with a smile on his face carefully, "Little Hou Ye, how about you rest on the side first, and when the lower official solves this matter, he will definitely entertain Xiao Hou Ye well." ”

Jin Nanshu waved his hand to show that he didn't care, but his eyes fell on Hua Qingyan, and he smiled: "6 adults, you have to check this matter carefully, this Qingyan girl is my old acquaintance, I didn't expect to meet you in your house today, and it can be regarded as letting us continue the frontier." ”

Jin Nanshu's words made 6 Zhi stunned, he looked at Jin Nanshu and then at Hua Qingyan, he obviously didn't expect Jin Nanshu to open his mouth at this moment, nor did he expect these two people to know!

6 Zhi's forehead suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He knows his son's temperament best, and he only spends his days drinking and sleeping on the knees of beautiful women on weekdays. In fact, after Hua Qingyan said that he was found by 6 Mingyao, 6 Zhi guessed the purpose of 6 Mingyao, it was nothing more than 6 Mingyao fell in love with Hua Qingyan, after all, this girl's appearance is rare and beautiful. In normal times, 6 Zhi will definitely turn a blind eye to this matter, and he is still messing around with 6 Mingyao, but today is different, Xiao Hou Ye again, for the sake of his own future, he will never allow his son to make mistakes!

But I didn't expect the little marquis to be an old acquaintance with this girl! But why didn't they have any communication with each other before, and both sides didn't look like they had friendships. 6 Although he is not sure about Jin Nanshu's attitude towards Hua Qingyan, Jin Nanshu's words have obviously shown that he attaches great importance to Hua Qingyan at the moment. So no matter what the truth is, 6 Mingyao will definitely not feel good today!

Jin Nanshu's words also made Hua Qingyan feel sudden, she was slightly stunned, and then smiled helplessly: "You never said that you are a little marquis." ”

"I don't say it's because I don't want you to have a grudge." Jin Nanshu said truthfully, and the smile on his lips was especially sincere.

"Okay, okay." Hua Qingyan shook her head and sighed, she actually knew best that if Jin Nanshu had stated from the beginning that he was the little marquis of the Hou Mansion in Zhennan, then Hua Qingyan would definitely not cooperate with him. Whether it's because of her identity or because of something else, getting involved with these nobles means trouble. And the most important thing Hua Qingyan can afford now is trouble.

6 Seeing that the two had already chatted warmly, and the cold sweat on his forehead was getting more and more, he hurriedly called a family member and asked 6 Mingyao's whereabouts. That Ding squeaked and couldn't say why, and finally said that 6 Mingyao was still in Zuixianglou at the moment and didn't return overnight under the forced persecution of 6 Zhi.

What is Zuixiang Building?

The most famous Qinglou in Yao County is also 6 Mingyao's favorite place.

6 Zhi's face changed, and he slapped the table fiercely and asked the family to hurry up and find the eldest young master, no matter what, he had to bring Rendu back, and there would be absolutely no delay!

After receiving the order, the family ran out reluctantly, and when he left, Hua Qingyan noticed his expression, and looked distressed, obviously this errand was not easy to do.

6 Zhishen took a breath and turned to Jin Nanshu and smiled: "Little Hou Ye, the dog is spoiled by me, and I ask the little Hou Ye to bear with me if there is any neglect." ”

Jin Nanshu smiled and didn't reply to the words of 6 Zhi, but said softly: "Ling Gongzi is still really romantic." ”
