Meng Changqing took a bath and felt a lot of relaxation on his body.

In retrospect, she hadn't taken a shower in a month.

I changed into a clean underwear, and rummaged through the cabinets to find a gray cotton jacket that could be put on.

Bafang knocked on the door with hot water, "Young master, do you want to add water?" ”

"I've washed it up, and I'll send it to my wife and them."

"Okay young master, do you want someone to bring the food first?"

Meng Changqing opened the door, "I have to go to the prefect's yamen to pay respects." She tidied up the gray cotton jacket on her body, "Let Brother Dai set up the car, I'll go out first and come back and eat." ”

"Hey, young master, where is the need for you to go in person, can't I just run for you?"

Meng Changqing took off the cloth wrapped in his hair to absorb water, "That is my top boss, the first time I've come to the door as a subordinate, and let my subordinates pay homage?"

Does that mean that it makes sense for him to have time to wait for me to come to the door? ”

"It doesn't seem reasonable." Bafang carried the bucket and said as he walked, "Young master, you wait, I'll go and tell Brother Dai as soon as I finish delivering the water." ”

The first time he went to meet his immediate boss, Meng Changqing abided by the officialdom culture and prepared a gift for the leader he had never met.

When she passed by the backyard, Wen, who had just come out of the shower, saw what she was holding in her hand and couldn't bear it.

"Ma'am." Liang chirped to help her, "But do you have something to take care of Changqing?" ”

Wen shook his head, "She's holding a sword in her hand, it's the only thing her father gave her, their father... I haven't even met before. ”

So the general did not know that his last child was a daughter.

is obviously a daughter, but she has to take on the responsibility of her son, and I don't know if the general under Jiuquan will blame her.

Thinking of this, Wen's expression changed slightly.

He doesn't have a right to blame.

It was his own group of jackal-like relatives who forced them down this path.

On the loess compacted street, the post officer drove the car, and Bafang held the box containing the sword for Meng Changqing, "Young master, let's go back to see Shangguan, and give someone a sword, is there any explanation?" ”

Meng Changqing was checking the words on his prayer post, "Why are you following me?" What about Brother Dai? ”

"Mrs. and aunt are still in the post house, of course Brother Dai has to stay and take care of me, I am your personal servant, I don't follow you, who follows you." Bafang squatted in front of Meng Changqing, "Young Master, tell me about it." ”

"There are so many twists and turns, and I have never seen someone before, how do I know what he likes? However, based on the fact that he was born as a military general, it is guessed that he probably prefers weapons to the four treasures of the study.

The only weapon on your young master and I that can handle it is this sword. ”

Meng Changqing closed the prayer post and asked Bafang to open the box and take out the sword inside, "Don't look at this scabbard, but the sword body is very sharp." ”

She seemed to want to test the sharpness of the sword for Bafang.

So he drew his sword and tried to find something to cut.

At this moment, the carriage flickered, and the light that penetrated the carriage shifted, shining on the blade of the blade and flashing a cold light.

Bafang hurriedly pressed his young master's hand, "You better put it away." "The carriage is too small, don't hurt him.

When Bafang was boxing the sword, he suddenly remembered, "Young Master, how can I remember that you have four swords in the box?" ”

"There are four swords, but this one is mine." Meng Changqing said, "You can't give away your deceased brother's things." ”

"My lord, the prefect's yamen has arrived."

Meng Changqing stepped on the bench and got out of the car, and took out one or two pieces of silver and stuffed them to the post officer, "I'm tired." ”

The post officer's eyes lit up, "Ouch, thank you, thank you, thank you!" ”

The gate of the government office was closed, and there were four officials guarding the door.

Seeing Meng Changqing coming over, he routinely stopped people, "What person?" ”

Bafang: "My lord is the new magistrate of Beishan County, and I just arrived in Liangzhou today, and I came to meet the prefect." ”

"Beishan County?" The two officials who stopped Meng Changqing looked at each other.

The eye contact between them was all seen by Meng Changqing.

"Your Excellency is not in the house at the moment." The official said.

Meng Changqing had long expected this kind of result, and when he came to the door for the first time, he didn't expect to see the deity smoothly.

She handed over the prayer post, "This is my prayer post, and I will hand it over to the two of you." ”

A clerk who knew how to read came up in the back, and when he opened the post and saw that there was a Meng character on it, he immediately changed his expression, "You are Lord Meng?" ”

"My surname is indeed Meng."

The four officials instantly became enthusiastic, "Lord Meng, please come in." ”

Two of them pushed open the side door and took Meng Changqing to the back office, "Our lord went out of the city to inspect the barracks, and now he is not in the mansion, but when the lord left the mansion, he explained that if you come to the door, you must be well entertained." ”

Meng Changqing remembered the way he came in and asked them, "When will the prefect return to the house?" ”

At this time, the official had already led Meng Changqing to a reception room, "Your Excellency will go back to the house before dinner, you wait here." ”

Okay, just wait.

Meng Changqing calculated the time, from this time to dinner, he had to wait for at least four hours.

If I knew that this was going to happen, I should have eaten and come again.

I thought it would be a matter of sending a prayer post, but I didn't expect to be brought into the back office by the officials.

Sure enough, it is Liangzhou, which is not the same road as the officialdom in the capital.

This is more than two hours.

The tea leaves in the tea bowl were all chewed and swallowed by her, and the prefect did not come back.

People don't come back, and they don't serve snacks, Meng Changqing's stomach is hungry.

When it sounded, everyone couldn't help but persuade him, "Young master, otherwise let's go back first and come back after dinner." ”

"It's not like we're going to come when we want to, and we're going to leave when we want." Meng Changqing pulled two bonsai leaves, "This is called Xia Ma Wei." ”

"If you go hungry like this, won't you starve?" Bafang said, "Why don't I go out and find out where the kitchen is, and get you something to eat?" ”

"No, you can't walk around."

Meng Changqing stood up and went to the door to observe, and sure enough, not only was there no one outside the room she was in, but there was no one in the entire back office.

Meng Changqing had already guessed at this time, whose power was this prefect whom he had never met?

Born as a military general, his official position is not low, and it is impossible to be a person who can be contacted by the Meng family's clansmen, but it cannot be ruled out that this prefect has taken a fancy to the three melons and two dates.

It is unlikely that it is a person from the Xiao family, since the emperor asked her to come to Liangzhou, it means that the Xiao family's hand cannot reach here.

It was getting darker and darker, and no one had come to light the lamp, so it seemed that she had made up her mind to embarrass her.

Immature!

Meng Changqing was thinking like this, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps walking towards him.

She sat up straight and let the eight sides stand upright.

Through the not bright light, Meng Changqing saw a strong man walk in.

The strong man was wearing a sword, and he was standing in the middle when he entered the door, he should be the prefect of Liangzhou.

Meng Changqing stood up, "Xiaguan Meng Changqing, I have come to meet the prefect." ”

"Evergreen." The strong man walked up to Meng Changqing excitedly and touched her head, "Why are you called Changqing?" ”
