The mist is dispersed, and the north wharf of Yangzhou City.

The vendors were directing their men and laborers to carry the goods, the officials were checking the merchants' taxes, and the slender men were shouting to pull the boats ashore.

Li Xuan stood on the bow of the boat, looking at everyone on the shore with a cautious gaze.

"Lord, there's something wrong." Yu Ze followed Li Xuan's side and asked in a low voice.

"Nothing." Li Xuan shook his head lightly and said, "It's only a little pity that no one came to greet me."

"Lord Wang, local officials also want to be face-saving, although we are here from the gods, but after all, we are just passers-by, even if others know what our purpose is, they will not easily come to join in the fun." Yu Ze looked at Li Xuan with some amusement.

"Your Majesty sent this king to Jiangnan, although he only served in Wuzhou, but he has many gifts before and after, and he also hopes that this king can walk around and see more, and also let others see this king more, so that they will naturally ignore other places." Li Xuan groaned in his heart and turned his head to look around the dock.

At present, the pier is hundreds of meters wide, and there is an endless stream of boats.

Yangzhou is prosperous, and most of the large wharves are concentrated outside the north and south city gates.

Officials and merchants coming and going from the south and from the north stopped at the north and south wharves.

Li Xuan came all the way from Shendu, without deliberate swagger, but also without deliberately low-key.

People who really pay attention to him, they know where he has been.

Their reactions and movements are somewhat reflective of their state of mind.

"Let's stay in the post house first, and then let people send the post to the Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, wash up a little, and go to visit Dou Changshi in the afternoon, this Dou Changshi, but he knows everything!" The corners of Li Xuan's mouth showed a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Lord Wang, the Nanchang Royal Mansion and the Dou family have nothing to do with it, I'm afraid that people will only deal with it at will, and it will not be easy for us to transfer troops and dispatch generals at that time." Yu Ze showed a trace of worry on his face, the biggest problem with their trip to Wuzhou was the lack of soldiers.

There are not enough soldiers and generals who have really experienced the battle formation, and this is their biggest problem at the moment.

There are no government soldiers in Wuzhou, only the manpower of the city defense inspection department under the command of Bing Cao to join the army, and the rest are general arrest and fast service, relying on these people to defend a city, put all their might, rack their brains, I am afraid that they can only barely do it, and if they want to go into the mountains to exterminate the rebels, it is far from enough.

In addition to training soldiers in Wuzhou, Li Xuan also needed to mobilize soldiers from other places who had been killed in battle formations.

The soldiers of the Yangzhou Metropolitan Mansion and the Yuezhou Metropolitan Prefecture are the best targets.

"It's okay, we'll see you first, no matter what, he's going to give this king three points of thin noodles." Although Dou Xuande is the governor of Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, from the third grade, but Li Xuan is the king of the dynasty from the first grade, Li Xuan took the initiative to visit, Dou Xuande should be polite even if he is polite.

What's more, Li Xuan is now the grandson-in-law of Liu Renliang, the left minister, even if Li Xuan is not in the name of Liu Renliang, Dou Xuande also has to worry about three points.

Besides, now Li Xuan's true intention to come to Jiangnan, even if he can hide it from others, it is difficult to hide it from Dou Xuande.

The emperor put him on the historical position of the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture in order to be able to strangle the Tianyin Sect more comprehensively.

Li Xuan's contribution to the door, Dou Xuande is willing to let it go.

On the pier, the official ship docked.

A large group of Qianniuwei in brocade clothes immediately rushed ashore and drove the surrounding officials and businessmen aside, and Li Xuan landed on the shore.

"Lord Wang, this doesn't look like your style." Qiu Zhenmu glanced around, when Li Xuan was in Luoyang, he could be as low-key as possible, how could he get out of Luoyang, but he could be as high-profile as possible, is this his real character?

"It doesn't matter, that's what you want." Li Xuan's gaze swept back slightly, except for Yu Ze and Qiu Zhenmu following him, the others, including Wang Bo, Yin Sizhen, Meng Yi and others, were all left behind, inconspicuous.

"Brother Qiu, this time you and I have gone through hardships and hardships together!" Li Xuan rarely looked at Qiu Zhenmu sincerely, he, Zuo Qianniu Wei Qianniu, was prepared, although he had repeatedly accumulated credit, he had never been promoted.

Especially this time the mound

This is especially true after the demotion of the gods.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Qiu Shenyu was demoted to Shezhou this time, which is a unique means of the Queen of Heaven.

As long as he succeeds in making meritorious contributions, Qiu Shenqi will be able to return to Luoyang and be reinstated immediately.

But once it fails, Qiu Shenqi will immediately stay in the Jiangnan area forever, just like Yan Zhuang.

"It's only been a month since I followed the prince, and the lower officials have already accumulated three turns, as long as there is one more turn, you can be promoted to the military captain of Zuo Qianniu Weisi, from the fifth grade." Qiu Zhenmu had a satisfied smile on her face.

From the military captain of the fifth grade, although it is not as good as Wuzhou under Li Xuan's positive fifth grade, nor as good as Shezhou under Qiu Shen's positive fifth grade, but after all, it is very close, and Qiu Zhenmu really wants to be promoted again this time.

Although Qiu Zhenmu and Qiu Shenyu are uncles and nephews, in this kind of matter, not everyone is willing to sacrifice their own interests, not to mention that they are just cousins and nephews.

While speaking, Li Xuan and Qiu Zhenmu and their party had already arrived at the official post behind the dock.

A fat and not tall post man was waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw Li Xuan and Qiu Zhenmu coming, he hurriedly saluted: "Honghe has seen the king of Nanchang County."

"My men are talking!" Li Xuan's gaze swept around, but none of the Qianniu guards around him looked at him.

Yi Cheng Honghe immediately bowed down: "It's not about your generals, it's the duty of a petty official to investigate and verify the identity of the officials who come and go."

Although Honghe is the post of a big city like Yangzhou, he is only a petty official of the ninth grade, and Li Xuan's lowest official position is also Wuzhou under the fifth grade.

"By the way, it's to be checked," Li Xuan beckoned to the back, Li Mo immediately stepped forward and opened the brocade silk package in his hand, which contained dozens of official certificates, Li Xuan said with a smile: "Yicheng, please check them one by one, after the inspection, please set aside three courtyards, Qianniuwei lives in one courtyard, the king's subordinates live in one courtyard, the Ministry of Industry, the people from the Zongzheng Temple Monk Pharmacy, and several real mages live in one courtyard...... Are there still three empty courtyards?"

Yicheng Honghe lowered his body with some trepidation: "Yes, yes, it's just that no one has lived in it for a long time, and you need to clean it up."

It is not uncommon for a county king, there are also several princes in Jiangnan, but the county king is still accompanied by a whole team of Qianniuwei, as well as the Ministry of Industry, and the people of the Shang Pharmacy are very rare, where does Yicheng Honghe dare to delay.

After finishing speaking, he immediately said with some trepidation, "The junior official immediately sent someone to clean up."

Seeing Yicheng Honghe running towards the post station in a little panic, Qiu Zhenmu turned his head and looked at Li Xuan in surprise: "In our line, there are no people from the Ministry of Industry and the Monk Pharmacy of Zongzheng Temple, right?"

"Why not?" Li Xuan's expression was very indifferent, and he said as he walked towards the post station: "Those people who will be the prisoners are originally stuffed in by Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, Yin Sizhen's nephew has a position in the Chongxuan Department of Zongzheng Temple, Meng Lao is the former imperial doctor of the Shang Pharmacy Bureau, and this king was still the Shang Medicine of the Shang Pharmacy Bureau before, and it is not too much to use the name of the Shang Pharmacy Bureau."

"It's not too much, it's just that in this way, the whole Yangzhou will be in chaos." Qiu Zhenmu's face showed a trace of worry.

Li Xuan's current posture is to depose the envoy and watch the wind, and it is not much worse to descend on Yangzhou.

"That's what you want." Li Xuan whispered, and then he turned around sharply and looked at the opposite side of the long street, as if a figure suddenly flashed in a corner, Li Xuan's eyes flashed a hint of color, and then strode towards the backyard.

In their line, hundreds of people inside and outside began to move into the post station non-stop.

This scene was seen by many people, but just as the news reached their behind-the-scenes master, a figure had already hidden outside the post station and quietly observed.

Under the black hat, I couldn't see my face clearly, I couldn't see my age clearly, and I could only vaguely see a pretty outline and a pair of eyes full of hatred.

She was wearing a gray coarse sermon suit, looking at the graceful figure, it was clear that she was a young and beautiful woman.

After staring for a moment, the woman turned and walked away, not on the main road, but on the alley.

In a very short time, she had already gone several streets and alleys, and finally flashed into a stench

It was smoky, garbage-strewn, very dirty, and full of puddles in the alley, all the way to the deepest part of the alley.

A waist-high wooden door opened, and the woman entered, closing the wooden door.

The next moment, all the filth in the outside world was strangely blocked outside, and the courtyard was full of fragrance.

A beautiful woman in her thirties wearing a pale white skirt and a green bandeau underneath heard a voice and came out of the house and beckoned, "Holy Maiden, you are back."
