Approaching the three-day trip, by the time Bai Yan and Ye and others came to Yuzhong, the news of Feng Quji's arrival had already spread.

"The new county guard has arrived! I heard that it was Feng Quji. ”

"Then Yang Xian has been a county guard in Shangjun for fifteen years! That's it now? ”

"You must be gone, haven't you seen it, right now, outside the door of the county guard's mansion, there are all rich businessmen of the scholar clan with gifts, and the boxes are full of money!"

In the city, a famous person was talking, always looking around as he spoke, as if he was worried about being heard.

But the funny thing is that in the noisy streets, almost most of the people are talking about the county guard.

When he came to the city, Bai Yan heard the discussion of the people, thought about it, turned over and dismounted.

"Yes, you go to the county governor's mansion first, put the things where General Hu Jin is, and I'll go to the Lu Mansion first."

Bai Yan handed over the horse rope to karma, and then took out the token that had been prepared from his arms.

From the mouths of the people, it is not difficult for Bai Yan to know that at present, the gate of the county guarding the mansion is full of nobles and magnates who come to congratulate them.

Behind Feng Quji, the minister of Qin, is the famous Feng family, not to mention that the Feng family is distributed in Qin and Zhao, and there are many military generals.

Now that Feng Qujian is going to serve as the county guard, holding an important position in the county, he knows that the nobles who came to congratulate him are definitely not only Yuzhong, it is estimated that the entire Shang County has a head and a face of the scholar clan, and they will come to congratulate.

Even in other counties adjacent to Shangjun, some well-informed scholars would send their clansmen to Shangjun Yuzhong.

If you calculate it in this way, you can think about how many people there are, not to mention the more than 20 cities in the county, more than 20 city guards, and even those other nobles and magnates of the scholar clan, who can crowd the county guard's mansion.

There are many people.

Bai Yan still wanted to wait for the lively momentum to pass, and find an opportunity to discuss it in detail.

At present, there are so many people in the county guard's mansion, instead of waiting in front of the gate of the county guard's mansion, and then going to the county guard's mansion to dry, it is better to go to the Lu Mansion first.

Wait a little later and go to the county watchman's house!

Unlike the other city guards, Gao Nu had just been rebuilt, and he had a lot of things to deal with in Gao Nu, so it was normal for him to come to Yuzhong a little later.

"No!"

Ye arched his hand and nodded, then looked at the carriage that had entered the city behind him, and turned away on horseback with Huai and Peck.

Bai Yan looked at the back of Ye and the others leaving, put on the sword in his arms, and made sure that after wrapping the scabbard, he couldn't see anything wrong, so Bai Yan turned his head and looked at the carriage where Xu Shi was sitting behind him.

An hour later.

In front of the gate of the Lu Mansion.

As the carriage slowly stopped, Xu Shi, who was sitting in the carriage, slowly walked out of the carriage, looked at the Lu Mansion in front of him, and then looked at Bai Yan who was walking behind him.

Xu Shi looked at Bai Yan's appearance with a strange gaze.

If she hadn't known, the young man who had been walking behind the carriage was Bai Yan, a high-slave city guard, the main general of the iron cavalry, and she couldn't see Bai Yan from head to toe like a child of the scholar clan, like a general.

"Please!"

After Xu Shi got out of the carriage, he said to Bai Yan, and stretched out his hand to signal Bai Yan to follow her.

Bai Yan nodded.

Seeing that the subordinates of the mansion did not stop Xu Shi, Bai Yan knew that Lu Sheng must have already greeted the subordinates.

Seeing this, Bai Yan followed behind Xu Shi and walked into the Lu Mansion.

In the Lu Mansion, the courtyard is not big, not to mention that it is not as good as the Lu Mansion in Xianyang, that is, the city guard mansion of the previous high slaves is larger than the Lu Mansion.

However, after entering the mansion, Bai Yan found that in terms of maids and subordinates, the Lu Mansion was really willing to spend money, not to mention the Lu Mansion in Xianyang, that is, in the small Lu Mansion in front of him, at a glance, there were more than ten maids and subordinates.

"This way!"

Xu Shi walked in front and led the way for Bai Yan.

Bai Yan followed Master Xu through a courtyard, and then came to a main hall.

At this moment, there was no one in the main hall, Bai Yan came to a wooden seat under the signal of Master Xu and sat down slowly.

"General, Lu Sheng should go to the county guard mansion with his clansmen, and he hasn't returned yet! The next person has already gone to report to Lu Sheng. ”

Xu Shi was beside Bai Yan, and when he added a teacup, he muttered quietly.

Bai Yan nodded.

Watching Xu Shi pour himself tea, looking at himself cautiously, Bai Yan's eyes were a little strange, with a slight smile.

To tell the truth, such a timid Master Xu, if he hadn't said that he was a poisoner, Bai Yan wouldn't have believed anything.

Picking up the tea poured by Master Xu, Bai Yan took a sip carefully.

Although Xu Shi is good at poison, Bai Yan is still relieved about Xu Shi, first, he has no grudge against Xu Shi, second, Xu Shi has a request for her, and third, if Xu Shi wants him to die, he does not need to poison this tea.

All kinds of reasons are added together, Bai Yan believes in Xu Shi.

And Bai Yan thinks differently from others, don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people, although Xu Shi's identity, even he is a little panicked, but since he has decided to use Xu Shi, he must give his trust to Xu Shi, and he can't be suspicious of Xu Shi because of his identity.

If you don't worry, then it's better not to use Master Xu, it's self-defeating, but it is provoked by others, Bai Yan has seen more than anyone else.

In the future, if he doesn't take Xu Shi with him, Bai Yan prefers to take it.

Although the poisoner is terrifying, if you don't use it, it would be a pity to accidentally use it for others.

In the future, if someone wants to poison themselves, they want to make themselves like Bai Yu, with Master Xu here, maybe they can save their lives.

But speaking of which, Bai Yan looked at Master Xu and felt a little regretful, if Master Xu was a good doctor, how good would it be, so that not only was it poisonous, but he didn't worry about being sick.

Half an hour later.

Bai Yan was waiting for boredom when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside the main hall, and then Lu Sheng, who had a relationship with each other, appeared outside the door.

However, beside Lu Sheng, in addition to the first person, there was also a middle-aged man, a teenager, and a girl.

Looked at.

Bai Yan hurriedly got up, looked at Lu Sheng, and slowly bowed his hand.

"Yan, I've seen a young shopkeeper!"

Bai Yan bowed to Lu Sheng.

Speaking of which, Bai Yan is also helpless about Lu Sheng's persistence, it stands to reason that he is already a connection of the Lu family, but Lu Sheng is still not satisfied, and he has to completely become his Lu Sheng's network before he can give up.

"I haven't seen you for many days! Why be polite, sit down! ”

When Lu Sheng saw Bai Yan, he also bowed his hand very politely.

After Bai Yan and Lu Sheng saluted, they looked at the three people who had a relationship at the wine banquet in Xianyang Lu Mansion before the first day, and saluted in turn.

For the middle-aged man, Lu Qi introduced him last time in Xianyang, it was Lu Qi's uncle Lu Jia, who had the same name as Montessori Mengjia, and the man and woman behind him were Lu Jia's children, Lu You and Lu Ru.

Because we all met and said hello last time, we are not strangers at the moment.

After a brief salute, they sat down.

"Yan, take the liberty to come to the house today to disturb!"

After Bai Yan took his seat, he bowed to Lu Jia again, as respect, after all, here, Lu Jia is not only Lu Sheng's uncle, but also the head of the family here.

"What's the only way to bother? Haha, you should come often! ”

Lu Jia smiled and waved his hand.

As a member of the Lu clan, Lu Jia has also competed since he was a child, although he did not compete with other brothers, and finally came to this Shang County, but in terms of communication, Lu Jia is also very sophisticated.

When he was in Xianyang Lu Mansion, Lu Jia knew that this young man was also called Yan, from the country of Qi, and also held the eldest sister's jade pendant, which should be given by Fei Yan, the daughter of the eldest sister.

Of course.

For Lu Jia, these are not important, this jade pendant just proves that the young man has a lot to do with non-smoke.

What Lu Jia really values is that this young man has the same name as that Bai Yan and can come into contact with that Bai Yan.

For the same name, Lu Jia has deep feelings, because he once benefited a lot because he had the same name as his middle concubine Meng Jia, and Meng Jia has also been his biggest reliance in the past few decades.

Don't look at Meng Jia's old age now, but Meng Jia Ke has always been favored by the current king.

Inside the main hall.

Due to Bai Yan's arrival, there were soon a lot of wine and food in the mansion.

In the process of talking, Bai Yan also learned that where he was in the county guard mansion now, it was indeed the same as he thought, there were a lot of people.

"Lu Jia once had a relationship with Feng Junshou, but now there are many people, so I can only find another day to visit Fuzhong!"

Lu Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Although it was a wry smile, Bai Yan, who was sitting at the bottom of the main hall, couldn't hear the superiority in Lu Jia's words, and the words were implying that he had something to do with Feng Quji.

"The head of the Lu family is a real person with a wide range of connections, which makes me admire!"

Bai Yan said to Lu Jia, borrowing the slope to get off the donkey.

"Yan, you have my eldest sister Yu Pei, counting, it has a lot to do with my Lu family, if you need it in the future, you can come to Lu Mansion!"

Lu Jia smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Bai Yan.

Let's talk about the jade pendant first, then pull into the relationship, and finally allow it, this one after the other, plus that hint is related to Feng Junshou.

Lu Sheng and Lu You took a sip of tea silently, and Yu Guang saw Bai Yan's surprised look on his face, knowing that the matter had been done.

"Yan, before that Xiongnu and Yueshi went south, can you be in Gaonu? Do you know what happened on the day? ”

Lu Sheng saw that the heat was about the same at this time, so he asked.

Bai Yan nodded.

Later, when he heard Lu Sheng inquire about what happened at that time, Bai Yan did not hide it, and roughly told what had happened, and slowly told it.

Tea was drunk cup after cup.

After a long time.

After finishing with Bai Yan's words.

"Hey, that General Bai is worthy of being a disciple of the Bai family, commanding the troops and planning, all have the former demeanor of Wu Anjun!"

Lu Sheng sighed, full of shock.

Although he had heard it before, it was not as shocking as when he first knew about it, but now he couldn't help but sigh that this was true.

"Yan, do you remember that when he was in the restaurant in the past, Lu Sheng longed for General Bai."

Lu Sheng suddenly looked at Bai Yan: "Listening to the battle of Gao Nu now, Lu Sheng's blood is boiling, I don't know if I can introduce General Bai to Lu Sheng, so that I can witness General Bai's demeanor." ”

Lu Sheng's words made Lu Jia and Lu You look over one after another, and even the eyes on Lu Ruqiao's face were full of expectation.

At the beginning, when many women in the city were reprimanding Bai Yan, she was the only one who believed in General Bai, because she saw General Bai's responsibility.

If it was at the beginning, it was because she learned about Bai Yan from other people and other women, but after feeling the responsibility behind the migration order, she had admiration in her heart for the first time.

Then, when everyone was shocked when they heard that the 150,000 troops of the Xiongnu and the Yue clan were heading south, she was not only panicked in her heart, but also quietly relieved.

Because, she didn't look at the wrong person.

In the end, when I learned that General Nabai led 10,000 war cavalry, fought to the death against the Huns and 150,000 horses of the Yue clan, fought to the death and did not retreat, and guarded Shangjun.

As a woman, she can no longer control it, and the admiration in her heart instantly turns into love.

It was an emotion she had never had.

What woman doesn't want to marry such a strong man, such a general who stands up to the sky.

Inside the main hall.

Bai Yan faced everyone's eyes, listened to Lu Jia say that we have a great relationship, and listened to Lu Sheng not say a word about promises, but his words hinted at what he had promised when he was in the restaurant.

For this scene, Bai Yan had long been mentally prepared.

Even when Lu Jia mentioned the jade pendant just now, Bai Yan was waiting for Lu Sheng to speak.

"Right now, Gaonu City has been burned down, and all kinds of ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, where is the general, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time! I wonder if it can be postponed for a while? ”

Bai Yan thought for a moment, shook his head with an embarrassed face, and then looked at Lu Sheng.

Bai Yan's words surprised both Lu Jia and Lu Sheng, and their brows furrowed slightly.

Lu Jia and Lu Sheng both knew that Yan didn't lie to them, they naturally knew about the affairs of Gaonu City, and even Lu Jia and his children had always settled in Gaonu, but now it was because Gaonu was burned that they didn't go back.

But these two days !!

"Lord Feng is going to take office, so General Bai won't come to Yuzhong City?"

Lu Jia looked at Bai Yan and asked, if this is the case, then General Bai is inevitably too 'withdrawn'.

Xu Shi took the teapot, knelt beside the wooden table, and after pouring tea for the wooden cup on the table, when he heard Lu Jia's words, he glanced at the young man in front of him quietly.

Then put down the teacup, and after returning to the young man's side, his beautiful eyes looked at the few people around him quietly.

This moment.

Looking at the appearance of Lu Sheng, Lu You, and even Lu Jia, Xu Shi knew that they never dreamed that it was Bai Yan who was talking to them at the moment! Iron Rider Commander.

"Definitely!"

Bai Yan looked at Lu Jia and shook his head.

"The general came to Yuzhong this time, and there are other important things, I am afraid that I can't get out of it."

After speaking, Bai Yan lowered his head slightly, seemed to have made up his mind, raised his head with a righteous face, and promised: "Yan, although I can't introduce generals now, but in the future, if the Lu family needs it, Yan will definitely find a way." ”

Bai Yan said.

made Lu Jia and Lu Sheng look helpless.

Looking at Bai Yan's righteous expression, they couldn't say anything.

Lu You sighed in his heart, in the matter of befriending Bai Yan, it was obvious that this young man's path would not work at present.

Then Lu You looked at the little sister's lost appearance, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Not to mention in Upper County.

is to go to Xianyang, after hearing about the Meng's, Li's, Wang's and other famous children, the little sister was stunned and couldn't look down on any of them, even the Meng's family and the Li family's were no exception, but now, she is particularly concerned about Bai Yan.

"Yan, that"

Just when Lu Sheng was unwilling and wanted to ask General Bai what was important, suddenly a subordinate hurriedly walked in.

"The head of the house! Not far from the mansion, two men, after an argument with the Iron Horseman, suddenly crashed into the wall and died. ”

After the servant entered the main hall, he arched his hand to Lu Jia and said.

"What?"

"Outside the gate of the mansion, there was an argument with the Iron Horse?"

Lu Jia and Lu Sheng heard the words of their subordinates and looked puzzled.

Just when Lu Jia and Lu Shi thought it was a trivial matter, it was just an accident.

"Someone wants to slander General Bai!!"

Lu Ru on the side suddenly spoke.

Lu Ru's words made Lu Jia, Lu Sheng, Lu You, and even Xu Shi all turn their heads to look, and they didn't understand why Lu Ru suddenly said that someone wanted to slander General Bai.

Just because it was an argument with the Iron Rider?

"Today's incident must have been planned for a long time, in order to wait for Lord Feng to arrive in Yuzhong and go to serve as the county guard, so as to make things bigger."

Lu Ru looked at his father and said slowly: "The person who did this plot knows that there is a county lieutenant, General Hu Jin, in Yuzhong, if it is normal, it will definitely not make a big fuss and it will not spread." ”

While thinking about and analyzing, Lu Ru intermittently said his guesses.

"The purpose of this man. It is very likely that he wants General Bai to fall into the driver's seat, it may be that he doesn't want General Bai to be promoted, or let General Bai be in charge of more soldiers and horses! What will it be? ”

Lu Ru's words fell with doubt.

When Xu Shi heard Lu Ru's words, he immediately looked at the young man beside him.

At this moment, Bai Yan looked at that Lu Ru with some surprise.

Bai Yan knew that someone wanted to be unfavorable to him, because he knew the existence of Qi Qi and knew that the Bai family had offended many people.

But from Lu Ru's point of view, without knowing anything, he could think of so much at once.

"Who could that be?"

Lu Jia was a little confused by his daughter's words, and in terms of secret fighting, he was indeed not as careful and sensitive as his daughter.

Although the daughter is all speculation, it sounds like it does make sense.

Because what her daughter said is right, no matter whether Bai Yan did many things or not, as long as it is related to the iron horse, the world will mention Bai Yan.

"It's either in the Xianyang Imperial Hall, or it's Zhao Guo!"

Jing Ke assassinated Qin Zhong, Jing Ke was the favored minister who bribed Meng Jia, the middle concubine, and Yingzheng.

Among the county guards in Shangjun, after Yang Xian, it was Feng Quji, and Feng Quji became the prime minister later.
