Chapter 246: The City Lord Welcomes Him
The big ship with the royal flag of Kong Fangguo slowly docked, and the dock was already surrounded by the residents of Green Water City.
The prince came to Green Water City in person, which was something they would rarely encounter in their lives.
Many city guards maintained order here, and Wu Qianjin, as the city lord, of course, had to come to greet him in person.
These princes usually stay in the capital, where there are many powerful people, and even if they are princes, they may not be able to attract much attention wherever they go.
Where can it be like now, the heads of people are like a black tide, and the black pressure is endless, not to mention that tens of thousands of people are here to greet them.
As princes, although they don't take the admiration of these ordinary people very seriously, after this number has accumulated to a certain extent, he has undergone a qualitative change.
Once again, several people were proud of their status as princes.
As soon as the boat was stable, Kong Chengmo was the first to step off the boat.
Wu Qianjin immediately stepped forward to greet him: "Wu Qianjin, the city lord of Green Water City, is here to welcome the second prince, the third prince, the fourth prince and Lord Tuoba. ”
Wu Qianjin was not too troublesome, he insisted on mentioning the three princes one by one, and did not dare to replace them with the princes, for fear that these masters would have some unpleasant thoughts in their hearts.
Kong Chengmo looked around at the people around him and asked, "Have you arranged all the places where we live?"
Wu Qianjin immediately replied: "The City Lord's Mansion has been cleaned up, just waiting for a few highnesses to move in." ”
Kong Chengmo nodded with satisfaction, looked at Wu Qianjin again and asked, "What do you say is your name?"
"The lowly name is Wu Qianjin. ”
"Your surname is Wu, are you a member of the Wu family of Dadu Diet?"
"Exactly. ”
Kong Chengmo happily hugged Wu Qianjin: "That's good, that's good, you are from the Wu family, presumably your cooking skills won't be bad, right?" I was worried that I wouldn't be used to eating in this Green Water City, but when I saw you here, I was relieved." From now on, you'll be responsible for our meals. ”
As soon as he arrived in Green Water City, he asked the lord of a city to cook for him.
Wu Qianjin replied with a smile: "This is natural, it is the duty of the princes to arrange their daily lives." ”
Kong Chengmo nodded with satisfaction, although Kong Chengze and Kong Chengtang didn't say a word in the back, Wu Qianjin couldn't pretend not to see it, they all had to meet one by one.
In the end, Wu Qianjin turned his gaze to Tuoba Wei, who was walking at the back: "Lord Tuoba has worked hard all the way. ”
Tuoba Wei nodded and said: "Everything is arranged by the imperial court, we eat the king's food, there is nothing hard or hard." ”
"Learn from Tuoba-sama. ”
Then Wu Qianjin made a gesture of please: "Please Your Highness and Lord Tuoba to get into the car." ”
Everyone got into the car and headed for the city lord's mansion, and the salutes of several princes were carried by the servants they brought.
The arrival of several princes made Wu Qianjin, who was usually served a lot by his subordinates, have to be reduced to a subordinate and personally do what others do for him on weekdays, such as serving tea and pouring water. There is no way, this is officialdom.
The people who stayed in the City Lord's Mansion this time were not only the prince and the envoy, but even their accompanying maids and subordinates also lived in the City Lord's Mansion.
Although these people are also maids, they are also the maids and servants next to the prince, and in front of the original maids and subordinates of the city lord's mansion, they seem to have become nobles, and they are all arrogant.
Wu Qianjin personally prepared a table of luncheon for the three princes and Tuoba Wei.
Tuoba Wei said: "The people of Fuyu City, these days should also arrive. ”
Hearing Tuoba Wei mention Fuyu City, Kong Chengmo immediately asked, "City Lord Wu, in this competition, who do you say will win between Lushui City and Fuyu City?"
"Back to the Second Highness, as the city lord of Green Water City, I naturally have more confidence in myself. ”
"Oh, then I'll make a bet later, and I'm going to beat you Green Water City to win." ”
Wu Qianjin could only respond with a smile: "Then I wish His Royal Highness the Second Highness can win a lot of money this time." ”
Wu Qianjin said so on his lips, but how could he be a bitter word in his heart?
Fortunately, this time there is a double insurance of Cangmang and Nangong Yurou, in other words, under normal circumstances, Kong Chengmo said casually, it is going to kill people.
When the time comes, Kong Chengmo will win the money, that is his own ability, and if he loses the money, it will be Wu Qianjin's pot.
In case Kong Chengmo came to say: "Who told you to tell me that you will win? Now if you lose, who is it?"
I can't find a place to cry.
Although Wu Qianjin had no contact with Kong Chengmo when he was in Dadu, Kong Chengmo's reputation as the first gentleman in Dadu had already been like thunder. It's not surprising what kind of thing such a gentleman would do.
Kong Chengmo laughed, hugged Wu Qianjin affectionately, patted him on the shoulder with one hand and said, "City Lord Wu! Speak briskly, yes yes, no yes, don't do those twists and turns. After the main hall kills all sides, your benefits will definitely be indispensable. ”
Kong Chengtang said on the side: "Second brother, if you ask City Lord Wu like this, you don't worry that he will be driven by you to put ducks on the shelves! ”
Kong Chengmo waved his hand and said: "It's too troublesome to investigate something, City Lord Wu is an honest person at first glance, I believe he won't lie to me." ”
The banquet had come to an end, Kong Chengtang got up and said, "It's okay to be idle, or I'll go out for a walk." ”
Hearing Kong Chengtang say that he was going out, Kong Chengmo hurriedly said: "Since the fourth brother is going out, then by the way, I will inspect the strength of the cultivators in this Green Water City for my brother, and also make my brother feel more at ease." ”
"Second brother, you obviously dug a pit for me! I just said that I believe in City Lord Wu, and now push the job for me to do, you have premeditated it!"
"Haha, the fourth brother is too worried, aren't you by the way!"
"Okay, who made you my brother. ”
Wu Qianjin immediately said: "The fourth prince wants to go out, so I will send someone to accompany you?"
Kong Chengtang refused: "No need, I'll just walk around by myself, I'm a strange face, just to observe the people's feelings, and see how you, the city lord, are doing for my father." ”
Wu Qianjin could only smile and said: "The Fourth Highness is really diligent, making him humiliated." ”
"Contributing to my father and serving my Kong Fangguo is what I, the prince, should do. After saying this, Kong Chengtang left with his attendants.
The fourth prince went out, and the second prince just stayed in the city lord's mansion for a while, and soon he couldn't sit still. He also took his servants with him and left the City Lord's Mansion to go outside.
His goal is very clear, and his motivation is very simple, that is, he wants to find a place to find flowers and willows.
As for the third prince, he felt that it was very hard to take a boat along the way, so he chose to go back to his room to rest.
Several people can be regarded as having their own things, and there is no need for Wu Qianjin to arrange activities for them, which saves a lot of trouble.
Tuoba Wei came here for official business, naturally he would not be as relaxed and comfortable as the three princes, and he still needed to talk to Wu Qianjin about a series of things such as the venue arrangement of the Xiaoling Mountain competition.
