Just as Zhou Bei was about to get on the bus, he saw a plane landing from the sky.

Looking at the iconic livery, you can tell at a glance that it is an aircraft from the Fifth Tractor Factory.

The city of Three Rivers is a confluence of three rivers, with mountains and hills on the east side and relatively flat on the west.

Although the city is small, it has two airports.

This is also the standard configuration of most of the medium-sized cities in the Ming Dynasty, one is a civil aviation airport, and the other is an official airport of the imperial court.

The central bank of the imperial court, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Department of General Administration, and the military, all had a large number of official needs.

Gold and silver are transferred, information is transmitted, and all kinds of small planes fly non-stop.

The civil aviation airport is also very large for the flow of people and goods transfer. Daming only has the most basic radar, no satellites, no electronic office, and the airport has limited capacity.

After a number of air crashes, civil airports and business airports were separated, making it easier for the tower to arrange take-off and landing.

The civil aviation airport in Trois-Rivières is located in the western part of the city, 20 kilometers from the city.

The business airport is on the north side of the city, just on the edge of the city, next to the parking lot of the tractor factory, and only two kilometers from the villa area.

The airport's tower is borrowed from the foundry tower of a tractor factory, and is surrounded by low-rise factories and open-air parking lots, which seem to be unprotected but difficult for ordinary people to approach.

When Zhou Bei saw the plane landing, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a hint of a smile.

The car sped by, leaving a wisp of green smoke that quickly vanished.

Not far away, at the airport, a large group of people were waiting on the runway of the airport, waiting for the plane to land.

There were more than 60 people on the plane, half of them were representatives of Xuezhou County who went to Tang Wangfu to mourn, and the other half were business representatives of Tang Wangfu and Tangzhou County who came to Xuezhou County.

In one of the seats in the front, sat a slightly childish teenager, with a hint of gloom on his handsome face.

Beside him, there was a middle-aged man with a serious appearance, and after glancing at the welcoming crowd at the end of the runway, he withdrew his gaze and asked with a smile: "Does the third prince still have an impression of Three Rivers City?" ”

A smile appeared on the young man's face, and he replied: "After getting engaged to Youwei, my little nephew has been here twice, and the most impressive thing is the continuous factory buildings, as well as dense forests and grass everywhere.

In Tangzhou, except for a few trees in the mountainous areas, there are only barren Gobi deserts and deserts, and the beautiful scenery here is still fresh in my memory. ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "If you want to talk about factories, there are still many in Zhongzhou." Around Yingtianfu, all the way to Ningbo Mansion and Songjiang Mansion by the sea, there are almost all factories. Trois-Rivières is still far inferior in this regard, and the only thing that can be praised is this beautiful scenery. ”

The young man sighed, shook his head and said: "Compared with Xuezhou, Tangzhou is far inferior, the natural environment is too harsh, except for minerals, there is nothing else to rely on......"

The middle-aged man interrupted him and said, "When you come to Three Rivers City, I will ask Youwei to take you around, it is the height of summer, and there are many places to play around the county lord's mansion." ”

The boy snorted, no expression visible on his calm face. "The last time I saw Youwei was three years ago, and now she should have forgotten what I look like."

The middle-aged man sighed and didn't answer, the identities of the two were really embarrassing.

Just as the plane landed, everyone grabbed the handles and waited for the moment to land.

The middle-aged man landed on the plane and did not speak, which resolved the embarrassment between the two.

The plane came to a steady stop at the end of the runway, and a suspension ladder was quickly pushed over by the crew.

The hatch at the back of the plane opened, and the middle-aged man took the lead in walking to the back, got out of the plane, quickly got off the plane, and nodded to the leading Lihua county lord, and the two were in third place, waiting side by side for the guests to get off the plane.

In front of them, both of them were county kings in python robes.

The boy was in front of the plane, but he didn't get off the plane directly, but waited there quietly.

A middle-aged man in a python robe came to the young man's side, smiled, and laughed harmoniously: "Yu Youji has already proposed to withdraw from the marriage, but now he claims to be an old man, which is extremely hypocritical. ”

The boy glanced up at him, the corners of his mouth twitching. "Sixth uncle, who doesn't live with a mask?"

The middle-aged man in the python robe patted him on the shoulder. "Don't blame us, for the development of Tangzhou, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed."

The boy nodded firmly. "I know. Although the little nephew is young, he also thinks he is from Tangzhou. ”

The two stopped talking, and waited for another official dressed from the third grade, Jun Cheng Wu Xun, to change his clothes, and the middle-aged man in the python robe was the first to get off the plane, followed by Wu Xun, and the third was the young Zhu Liqing, who was the third son of the Tang Dynasty.

As soon as he stepped out of the hatch, his eyes wandered through the crowd, and he remembered his appearance when he saw the tall, short-haired middle-aged official at the back of the crowd.

Although he was only sixteen years old, he was born in the complex environment of the palace, and Zhu Liqing had already had a city government and was used to being quiet.

But in his heart, who can understand his humiliation!

His fiancée actually had an affair with someone else, and what made him even more angry was that in the heart of that distant aunt, he, the future king of the county, was not as good as a five-grade child.

Although the other party is rich, but the difference in identity, does this aunt really care?

He didn't believe it.

He knew very well that the bastard named Zhou Bei must have something special to gain the appreciation of this powerful distant aunt.

But the hatred of taking his wife still makes him feel uneasy.

He doesn't care about women, but the reputation of the Tang Palace's mansion cannot be desecrated.

It's just that the initiative is not in his hands.

Because in that person's hands, there is Tangzhou County, and there is the technology that Tang Wangfu wants.

The three princes and one county lord, after greetings, took a back seat and chatted on the side.

Zhu Liqing also followed them to greet them hypocritically, listening to their gossip on the side, only this distant aunt seemed to care about herself, and kept greeting and did not snub herself.

But the thought that she allowed her betrothed daughter to have sex with other men made him intimate.

On the other side, Zhou Duo accompanied a group of officials from Three Rivers City to greet Tangzhou County and his party, he didn't like this kind of occasion, but he had to come today.

He noticed that the somewhat childish Zhu Liqing had been looking at him, he was a very energetic young man and very handsome, but compared to his son, he was still a child......

Soon, everyone got into several cars according to their identities, and the entourage got into two buses.

Under the protection of the convoy of palace guards, the convoy drove out of the airport and headed for the official residence in the city.

People from the Tang Palace's Mansion will be arranged to rest in the county lord's mansion, but the people from Tangzhou County can only live in the official residence.

Officials and clans are opposing classes.

But in Trois-Rivières City, the official residence is the most luxuriously decorated restaurant and hotel.

The two-day flight journey in a row, coupled with the hot weather, made Zhu Liqing a little lacking in energy and kept holding on.

A hearty lunch, he ate unpleasantly and had to deal with the gentle words of his aunt beside him.

Coming out of the official residence, the sixth uncle Zhu Yunsong got into the car of the guest of honor Yu Cheng, and he, in the same car with the mother-in-law and aunt, went to the county lord's mansion in the suburbs.

"After walking on the road for two days, Liqing must be tired, now is the hottest season in Trois-Rivières City, and no more activities will be arranged at noon. When Liqing goes back, you can sleep for a while, and in the evening, I will hold a drinking party to welcome Liqing. ”

"The guest is as good as the host, and my aunt has arranged it very well." Deliberately pretending to hesitate for a moment, Zhu Liqing asked, "Is my cousin also at home?" ”

Zhu Lihua nodded. "At home, although she has a heart, she also remembers that it is your fiancée, and she is burdened with the responsibilities of the county lord's mansion."

Zhu Liqing understood what she meant, but he didn't care about this. "That Zhou Bei, will Zhou Zaiheng attend at night?"

Zhu Lihua didn't answer directly, but asked, "Do you want him to come?" ”

Zhu Liqing squeezed out a smile. "Come, come, you have to see. What's more, my sixth uncle attaches great importance to him. ”

In Zhu Lihua's eyes, although this nephew has a little city government, he is only sixteen years old after all, and he is still a lot worse than that Zhou Zaiheng.

That's a demon, more difficult to fathom than many cunning adults.

The convoy soon drove to the county lord's mansion, and except for two groups of soldiers to welcome it, everything was business as usual at the county lord's mansion.

However, at the door of the main building of the county lord's mansion, Yu Youwei stood in the middle, with the eldest brother Yu Yang on her left hand and the second brother Yu Xu on her right, waiting at the door.

They first greeted the county lord and the guest of honor, and then greeted Zhu Yunsong, their words and deeds were just right, and they obviously received a strict education.

When facing Zhu Liqing, the eyes of the three of them were a little probing, and Yu Youwei's expression was a little shy and panicked.

"I've seen three cousins......"

Zhu Liqing's impression of Yu Youwei is still wearing baby fat, and she is a crying bag.

Although I have seen photos of her growing up, I can only feel her charming temperament when I see a real person today.

Thinking of such a beauty, who was originally his fiancée, but now her heart belongs to something else, she feels more and more sad.

"I've seen my cousin, but I haven't seen me for three years, and I've become a big beauty."

Yu Youwei made a lady's salute and squatted slightly. "Don't dare to be a cousin, it's hard all the way, my cousin will rest first, and then talk to my cousin at night."

"Okay."

A group of more than ten people from the Tang Prince's Mansion, the county king Zhu Yunsong and one of his concubines, two maids, as well as Zhu Liqing and his entourage housekeeper Qian Kun, were arranged to live in the guest room on the second floor of the main building of the county lord's mansion.

Others were placed in a guest house not far from the front yard and lived alone.

After two days on the plane, everyone was very sleepy, Qian Kun arranged for Zhu Liqing to lie down on the bed, and said in a low voice: "The third prince will sleep for a while, and I will call you to get up at six o'clock." ”

Zhu Liqing snorted and said, "You prepare the dress I want to wear, go and explain to the servants of the county lord's mansion to call us when the time comes, and go to sleep for a while." I'm also counting on you to mention one or two, my brain is not clear, and I am afraid that I will make a mistake. ”

"Understood. The third master should go to sleep. ”

Lying on the bed, Zhu Liqing couldn't sleep, his mind was full of the delicate figure he had just seen.

Such a beauty, does she really have to give it to Zhou Zaiheng as the elders said?

He originally thought that he would not care, but now, seeing her beautiful face and innocent temperament, he was reluctant to give up.
