Chapter 73: The Attentive Horse Guard

The large army marched day and night on the road, and did not dare to delay in the slightest.

Finally, on the morning of the eighth day, they arrived at Nanyang County.

When there are still more than ten miles away from the county guard.

The group stood on the official road and waited quietly.

Standing at the front was an adult wearing a purple official uniform, with his hands attached to his big belly.

looks like an old monk has settled down.

He is the county guard of Nanyang County - Ma Boqian.

This new champion of the year, after ten years of ups and downs in officialdom.

It was only three years ago that he was repeatedly promoted and sat in the position of county guard.

It is said that Nanyang County is very prosperous under the governance of Ma Junshou.

Of the three counties that were severely affected this time, Nanyang County was the most severe.

Then.

The person next to him asked quietly.

"Did you say it was here today?"

"Well, someone just came to report that it will be half an hour away."

When a few people behind him heard this, they loosened some of their standing straight bodies.

Ahem.

Ma Junshou coughed lightly and turned his head to look at the person behind him.

Everyone seemed to be electrified, and suddenly a spirit stood up obediently.

"It's coming!"

I don't know who behind me said a word.

Everyone poked their heads out and looked at them with blank eyes.

Until the carriage approached.

"The minister led the twelve officials of Nanyang County to greet His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince."

Ma Boqian saluted very respectfully.

The crowd behind him saluted closely.

The carriage opened the curtains.

The face of the Seventh Prince Lu Jingqian was revealed.

"Get up~~ Ma Junshou leads the way."

Ma Boqian hurriedly nodded and motioned for the large army to follow.

In the distance, Lu Luoxi saw three big characters through the curtain of the carriage.

Nanyang County.

Tall towers, paved roads.

Even the roads are lined with lush trees.

There were no displaced people along the road, only a few people in simple clothes sitting in front of the store.

At least 80% of the shops are open.

Everyone's mental outlook looks good.

Everyone was dressed neatly and with smiles on their faces.

It doesn't look like a flooded place at all.

"Your Highness, the minister will first divide the disaster relief materials and arrange for the people from the household department to send them over."

Guo Youzhi leaned next to the carriage and said softly.

"Go ahead, I've worked hard for Guo Shilang."

Lu Jingqian's voice came through the carriage.

The voice sounded weak, as if it was sick.

"It's all the minister's business."

Guo Youzhi had a hint of worry on his face, and bowed and left.

The Seventh Prince did look unwell.

When the large army was halfway through, the Seven Princes could no longer be seen getting off the carriage.

And every day you can see the maid decocting the medicine.

It's really not easy to hold on to such a body until now.

Guo Youzhi thought as he walked, and soon came to the disaster relief materials department.

He has a lot of experience with these things.

The work was quickly completed, and the relief materials were divided into five large parts, which were sent to various places by different household officers.

After Guo Youzhi finished handling the affairs, he followed the guards into the city.

He looked at the clean and tidy roads in the city and snorted coldly in his heart.

Ma Boqian, an old horseman, has started to do face engineering again.

Floods occur every year in the south, but this year is particularly severe.

I have also worked with Ma Boqian many times.

I can't know more about his temperament.

"Your Highness, this is a courtyard prepared for you, and I hope you don't dislike it."

Ma Boqian's expression was extremely respectful.

"It's hard to keep the horses."

Lu Jingqian tried his best to keep his voice stable, and stopped speaking after speaking.

"Your Highness, you rest first."

Ma Boqian walked out of the courtyard with great eyesight.

The annex is built on the side of his county guard's mansion, which is also very convenient for him to find out the news.

Until everyone leaves.

Lu Luoxi hurriedly helped Lu Jingqian and got out of the carriage together.

A few maids stepped forward and brought the man back to the house.

Lu Jingqian's face turned white, and the whole person looked like he was lifeless.

Lu Luoxi's face was gloomy, his lips were pursed tightly, and he looked like he was hovering on the edge of rage.

"Qian'er, it's time to get to the place, you have a good rest first~"

He looked at his brother with a gentle expression.

After settling Lu Jingqian.

Lu Luoxi, who was sitting in the main hall, looked serious.

"Qiu Lu, send someone to send a message to Murong Xing's seniors, if you can't find the holy medicine back to the divine grass, come back first!"

"This is my handwritten letter, and I must hand it over to him as soon as possible."

Qiu Lu nodded and walked out quickly.

No one thought of it.

Lu Jingqian turned out to be a relapse of his old illness because of the long journey.

At this moment, Lu Jingqian seemed to be dying at any time, which really frightened Lu Luoxi.

"Your Highness, the Majun Shou sent someone to deliver clothes and various daily necessities."

Nalan trotted in and reported.

"Your Highness, Ma Junshou has brought food, and it is still hot to the touch."

Nalan whispered again.

"As the Seventh Prince, thank you Ma Junshou."

Lu Luoxi explained two sentences in a deep voice.

This Horse County Shou is an interesting person.

Being too attentive is not necessarily a good thing.

"The matter of the Seventh Prince's illness is not allowed to be spread outside, so that I know who is too talkative..."

Lu Luoxi looked at the people underground, and explained with a majestic expression.

"We are new to the city, so if we have something, we will go to the horse guard, and don't act privately."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The county watchman's house.

"Hahahaha, my lord, you're being too careful."

The adult beside him said disdainfully.

"Yes, I saw that they came to report, the Seventh Prince seems to be unwell and has fallen ill, and now he is a staff member next to him."

Changshi also had a happy face, looking at Ma Junshou's face.

Ma Boqian was very calm.

"Look before you decide."

"Yes."

The next chief officer answered yes one after another.

It can be seen that Ma Boqian is usually very strict with the management of his subordinates.

"What about Guo Yuzhi?"

Ma Boqian seems to have only remembered such a number one person at this time.

"I just entered the city, and I have already arranged a place to rest."

"Is there any change?"

"After he distributed the disaster relief materials before entering the city, there were already four waves of people who went to other counties under the leadership of the manager of the household department."

"Keep an eye on it, don't let up."

Ma Boqian explained again uneasily.

The Seventh Prince was undoubtedly ill.

And depending on the situation, he is not lightly ill, so there is nothing to worry about.

Deal with them for a few days, and send them away safely.

That's all right.

Ma Boqian thought about the Seven Princes who were providing disaster relief, and his face was disdainful.

A child who doesn't understand anything is in vain.

Since childhood, he has been clothed and fed, and his body is still weak.

If you are so well prepared, there will be no problem.

Ma Boqian, who has such self-confidence, is also because of so many years of combat experience.

After all these years, the official who came was not sent away safely by himself.

"Let's go, go and invite His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, and prepare a welcome banquet for him."

He took the lead and walked out.

"Your Highness, the county guard is here with a group of people."

Qiu Lu's voice came from outside the house.

"I refused, saying that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince was tired all the way and had rested."

Lu Luoxi explained in a deep voice, his expression a little more thoughtful.
