Ten days later, a ship appeared in the sea of Ningbo without warning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This frightened several small ships of Ningbo City, and they thought that they had encountered an enemy attack, and when they finally confirmed the identity of the other party, they hurriedly went to report.

So the whole of Ningbo shook.

Today is cloudless, Ningbo Port is one of the few external windows of the Ming Dynasty, and when he learned that Ye Chunqiu had arrived, Cao Gonggong of the City Department was quite surprised.

Counting it, he and Ye Chunqiu are also old acquaintances, thinking that if he hadn't repaid him for his merits, Ye Chunqiu might not be able to have today.

The city division in charge of Gonggong Cao is a fat shortage, and Liu Jin is somewhat ambiguous, but he is an old man of the Hongzhi Dynasty, although he also works hard to tie up the upstarts, he is still relying on the power of the Empress Dowager Zhang.

At this time, Gonggong Cao was wearing a bright red robe, leading the officials of the city to the port, waiting for Ye Chunqiu to land, but his mood was complicated, thinking that at the beginning, this little show had to meet him to see him, but now, Gonggong Cao was a little sour, saw Ye Chunqiu, and saluted Ye Chunqiu with a little embarrassment: "I have seen Zhenguo Gong." ”

Then, Gonggong Cao saw Deng Jian who was following Ye Chunqiu, and he didn't know whether to salute or not.

This person is very familiar, so Gonggong Cao thought about it carefully, isn't this the Deng Yushi in Nanjing? At the beginning, he also patrolled Ningbo, he had dealt with Deng Jian, and he quickly had that deep impression, so that the oil and salt did not enter, and the people who looked at it were disgusted, it is said that they all did the imperial history of the Imperial Palace, I'm bah!

Although he thought that Deng Jian was dying of it, Gonggong Cao still put on a smiling face and bowed his head to Deng Jian: "Deng Yushi, hello." ”

Qian Qian was a little unkind, but at first glance, he was a person from Jinyiwei, and he also nodded to each other.

Ye Chunqiu was reluctant to deal too much with the people in the palace, but it was also because he couldn't figure out the details of Gonggong Cao, and most of the people in the palace, Ye Chunqiu and most of them did not have a good relationship.

I exchanged a few words with Gonggong Cao, but fortunately, at this time, a crane car came in the distance, and several messengers came down in a cluster, and it was the Liu Governor of Ningbo.

Governor Liu stepped forward and was about to salute, but Ye Chunqiu didn't dare to bear it, and saluted first: "Student Ye Chunqiu, I have seen the grandmaster." ”

Speaking of which, when Governor Liu appointed Ye Chunqiu as the head of the government test, the two sides already had a friendship between teachers and students.

Governor Liu seemed flattered, but he still accepted it, and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, no need to be polite, oops, someone has been ordered to prepare water and wine in the house, please tell the prince of Zhenguo." ”

Gonggong Cao stood aside, the sour taste in his heart was even stronger, he knew that Ye Chunqiu was the righteous son of Empress Dowager Zhang, so he was also quite a bit stammering, now Governor Liu's mansion is close to the water and the building is the first to get the moon, which makes people very uncomfortable.

Father-in-law Cao laughed dryly and said jokingly; "Now that the prefect's yamen has made a banquet, the city secretary simply followed suit."

Liu Zhifu and Ye Chunqiu glanced at each other, they didn't like this Cao Gonggong very much, it was not that they were excluded, but everyone was not in a circle, among the three, a noble, a civil official, and a eunuch, they were originally irrelevant, but Ye Chunqiu was born as a champion after all, you said that he was a nobleman, but he was born in Hanlin, you said that he was a civil official, and he was a prince of Zhenguo, how much, and Liu Zhifu is also a road.

The various officials of the Ming Dynasty have always been distinct and unrelated, and the words and deeds of Gonggong Cao make people feel a little uninteresting.

However, since Gonggong Cao opened his mouth, of course Governor Liu couldn't refuse, so he had to suppress the unhappiness in his heart and said with a smile: "Please come to Gonggong Cao." ”

Someone had already prepared a crane car, and the three of them each took the car slowly to the prefect's yamen.

Here in the yamen, three additional shifts of errand guards have been sent to expel irrelevant people, and then the prefect and the yamen officials are waiting here, and when Ye Chunqiu gets off the car, everyone comes to salute.

Today, Ye Chunqiu is considered to have returned to his hometown, seeing everyone like this, he couldn't help but sigh, so he returned the salute one after another, but it was inconvenient to put on the lofty appearance of the town and the prince, there were a few adjutants, he was familiar with it, and he couldn't help but recognize it, and the people who were recognized were all flattered and ashamed.

Then he entered the prefect's house under the crowd, and sure enough, the wine was ready, so everyone sat down, and Gonggong Cao always put a smile on his face and frequently persuaded him to drink, which made it inconvenient for Liu Zhifu to speak, Deng Jian and Qian Qian were very tired, but they barely ate some wine and food.

Ye Chunqiu was the most calm, and had a few drinks with Gonggong Cao.

Gonggong Cao was overwhelmed by alcohol, his tongue was a little knotted, and he said: "Hey, I want to be at the beginning, I saw Zhen Guogong for the first time, and I muttered in my heart, Zhen Guogong is a dragon and phoenix among people, and he is bound to soar into the sky, you see, you see, sure enough, haha, how do we say it...... In the past few years, we are in Ningbo, and it is not very peaceful, the city of the ship, is more and more inferior to the past, and now the town of the country is going to open the sea, from now on, there is no matter of the city, we are now...... Ahem......"

Choked on a sip of wine, Gonggong Cao shook his head, Ye Chunqiu was relieved, he saw that Governor Liu seemed to have something to say, but he looked a little inconvenient, but he also pursed his lips.

After three rounds of drinking, it was getting late, Ye Chunqiu got up and said goodbye, since he came to Ningbo, he must have stayed in Tongji Hall.

Governor Liu sent Ye Chunqiu out, and repeatedly asked him to stay in the yali, Ye Chunqiu humbly and politely refused, took Qian Qian and Deng Jian out of the ya, got into the crane car directly, and slowly went to Tongjitang.

As a result, halfway through, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves coming quickly, through the glass, you can see that a crane car is catching up on the cold street, and when the crane car stops, I see the swaying Cao Gonggong walking down.

Cao Guogong walked to Ye Chunqiu's crane car, with a sense of wine, and bowed his head and said, "Zhen Guogong, we have something to say." ”

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he was drunk and crazy?

Back in Ningbo, I feel strange and familiar here, the streets here are even grass and trees, Ye Chunqiu remembers it vividly, but because it has been too long, I can't help but have a sense of strangeness.

At this time, Ye Chunqiu was bent on going to Tongjitang to have a look, but who expected Gonggong Cao to stop his car so recklessly.

No matter what, after all, they were old acquaintances, Ye Chunqiu got out of the car, picked up Gonggong Cao on the ground, and said; "Father-in-law, it's cold on the ground."

Gonggong Cao said on his back: "The matter is urgent, we have to vomit unpleasantly, if Zhenguo Gonggong can trust us and still love the old, you might as well ...... Let's talk in the car? ”

Ye Chunqiu only hesitated slightly, and then said, "Please get in the car." (To be continued.) )
