Ye Qing and his entourage pressed the last ray of sunshine and entered the state city of Qiyang.

At this time, the streets and alleys are lit up, the shops are continuous, and the lanterns and floats are slowly moving on the street, and there are all kinds of clothes in the dense flow of people, and everyone is wearing their best clothes.

Couples travel, even the elderly and children, scholars and children, traveling women, eunuchs and servants...... The voices are boiling, the voices of greetings and miscellaneous discussions, and the rhyme and taste of the goods for sale converge into this prosperous evening singing.

Such a grand street parade scene, although not as much as the imperial capital, can be said to be crowded, the water is impassable, 100,000 households, no matter how arrogant the ox cart of the noble family can only obediently succumb.

"Why is it so lively?" Ye Qing got off the horse and rushed here non-stop, a little relieved, a little strange: "I only had this meeting when I came here to catch the exam last year, Lingling, what day is today?"

Zhou Ling took off her windproof mink robe and wore a black skirt that fitted her, she looked at the city and smiled nostalgically: "Childe forgot again, July 15, Midyear Festival." ”

Ye Qing suddenly realized that the Shangyuan Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is a more lively festival than the New Year in this life.

July 15, commonly known as July and a half, is a festival to worship ghosts and gods, evolved into a grand temple fair, October 15, this festival is related to the commemoration of the establishment of the Taoist Gate in the past, after the establishment of prosperity in the heavenly court, it is no longer necessary, and the dynasties are gradually not obvious.

In this way, leading the horse slowly in the crowd, the guards have been vigilant and protective, Zhou Ling was protected by Ye Qing's side, but the crowd was too much along the way, and it took more than half an hour to reach the north of the city, she wiped her sweat: "If you thought of this section just now, you would have entered through the Golden Water Gate." ”

"Then maybe I will delay entering the city, I can't always play the emergency military information sign, this is too ostentatious...... I'm here for a special time, and the more low-key the better. Ye Qing smiled and was relieved, but he was telling the truth.

"So where are we going now?"

"Let's go to the liquor branch to receive the news first...... Ye Qing said for a while, looking back, this is a teahouse and wine shop area, and when I listen to it, this story of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is spread all over the street.

Zhou Ling's martial arts are profound, and she also heard it, she loves the house and Wu, so she rejoices: "The book written by the son is very good, and the whole Yingzhou likes it." ”

Ye Qing smiled, how big is Yingzhou?

Even if it is only a corner of the world in terms of the world, but it is really a radius of thousands of miles, with a population of eight million, how many heroes have come out, and their own list is a big man in Nancang County, and in this place of eight million essences, it is only the most outstanding top among celebrities, too far away for ordinary citizens, lacking a sense of reality, far less than the real profit of the thirty-four liquor alliances like Nancang County, and the coachmen who walk the streets and alleys are proud of the influence of "Wenqu Star of our county".

Now it is also the same as in Nancang County, "Luoyang paper is expensive", there must be greater influence involved, the governor has this ability to influence, old-fashioned not to see novels, the eldest princess seriously recommended, her influence is more in the world, and it is not higher than Ye Bangyan in Yingzhou, so from the perspective of the relationship he is involved, the only answer is the emperor - most likely the emperor's comments are publicized

Ye Qing thought about it like this, and his heart was even more urgent to know the answer, so he turned over and got on the horse again: "Let's go to the liquor branch in the state first, just by the way, let's see the situation." ”

Two quarters of an hour later, Ye Qing came out of the branch and looked up at the sky in the secluded courtyard.

The lights of the city are shining and the stars are gone, the night breeze is blowing the fallen leaves, cool and seeping, Ye Qing's expression is still a little trance, full of surprises of winning the jackpot, and unbelievable feelings.

"The feedback of the information of each county is also aimed at the emperor's praise, or it is not purely ......"

When the eldest princess published the book, the emperor praised it all over the world, and the expensive paper was incomparable for a while, Ye Qing was her own publicity, even if she was a foreign minister, she didn't have the princess's gold, and she didn't have the special value and influence when she was not a monk.

This time, it is not a grade gap with the world's powerful officials figuring out the emperor's heart, and the effect of flattery and propaganda for the princess is not a grade.

But in Yingzhou alone, Ye Qing is confident that he has his own reputation and reputation, which has a similar effect.

In addition, the news of the imperial capital came back, and under the influence of the developed newspaper industry in Gyeonggi Paper, the emperor's comments came out, but Ye Qing pushed his hand, and there were also some teahouses in the six states around Gyeonggi in the west of the gorge that were spreading jokes, but it was an unexpected joy

Ye Qing woke up a little from the surprise, and his expression was a little complicated: "I still underestimate the influence of the emperor, under the influence of the five emperors for millions of years, the penetration of legitimacy among the people is really terrifying, no wonder the former ...... At that time, the imperial court was damaged but not collapsed, which cannot but be taken into account in the future. ”

Zhou Lingzhen took the horse and looked at her son-in-law with some doubts, she carefully considered her words: "The emperor should be very powerful, very powerful, and the words of the son-in-law are really strange...... Well, of course, Childe is also very powerful, very powerful

"Little Ponyf" Ye Qing rubbed her head, she was in a very happy mood - there was no such effect when she went to other states, but this has satisfied herself, this is not a foreknowledge, it is purely a coincidence, a great luck

Zhou Ling's face was swollen and red, a little aggrieved, but she really thought so.

"Could it be that I have worked hard for two lifetimes and finally cultivated the template of the protagonist, Ha Lu Ha ......" Ye Qing smiled and said something that no one could understand, and calmed down for a moment - the Romance of the Three Kingdoms of the Gods can be popular in Yingzhou, which is enough for his own plan

"If they meet in the future, they must thank this eldest princess...... But the popularity of this book is only the basics, and it is far from enough, and the next step is crucial, but it is also dangerous, and I have come in such a hurry that I still have to meet the governor in order not to attract attention and suspicion. ”

Ye Qing quickly changed his mind, and fine-tuned the plan in his heart according to the situation: "As for the beginning, just use Li Shen, and directly hand over the horses to the governor's mansion, with the governor's political sense and means, dare to say that this Li Shen, or Zhang Dudu behind the scenes, has no good fruit to eat, if Yu Fan does not do it skillfully enough, and is dragged out of the tail, he will have to deduct points."

"Childe, where are you going now?"

"Go to the governor immediately, no matter what, since you have come to this state city, sooner or later you have to pay a visit to the governor's house to be considered polite."

The majestic and majestic Governor's Mansion, the blue color is dark and dark, and the armor guard is strict, as soon as Ye Qing hands it in, a housekeeper immediately greets him: "Bangyan Gong, please come in, the master is waiting for you in the study." ”

After passing through the rockery, verandah, and Quyuan, you will arrive at a delicate and bright two-story attic, Zhou Ling has been left below, Ye Qing listened intently upstairs, identified the direction, and went up alone.

Pushing the door, I smelled a fragrant fragrance of tea, saw the governor, and was reading a newspaper, the title on this side is - Heavenly praise, the masterpiece, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Chapter 9"

The governor flipped over, nodded Ye Qing, shook his head and smiled: "You are really, a dignified example, all these crying and laughing are nothing, how can I say hello to me......"

When the governor said this, he put down the newspaper, waved his hand and said: "Originally, you led the troops, but there was no movement for a few months when you went back, and some people gossiped, but I expected that you would do something. ”

"I've heard of other things, there is a set of internal affairs, and it's very promising, but since you have the time to write this wild history novel, why not do more for the imperial court?"

As soon as this "emperor's praise" incident came out, the governor got the news and immediately paid attention to it, afraid that Ye Qing would stab the basket again, he also turned over this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in the past two days, as far as literature is concerned, at most, it is magnificent, the description of human feelings is vivid, and then there is the reality of the war scenes, these are not special, it is really a waste to write novels with such talent.

Ye Qing saw that the governor said this, his face was sincere and sad, knowing that this governor hated iron and steel, he was slightly moved in his heart, took out a fan and shook it, and smiled: "It's just a preference, it happens to be recommended by the eldest princess, since the emperor said it is good, how dare Qing disgrace this work? ”

"Nonsense, is the face of the heavenly family that you can lose if you want to?" The governor glared at Ye Qing, and saw that he looked submissive, obviously pretending, so he had to smile helplessly, and asked: "As long as you are too idle to do anything, why don't you go home to write novels, and come here again?"

"Ah, this is not to destroy the grassland, the preliminary completion of the task, ask the adults for reward. Speaking of this, Ye Qing took out a piece of paper and handed it over.

As soon as the governor took it, he changed color slightly, and when he looked closely, these 1,800 war horses were worth a lot.

Ye Qing paused for a moment and said slowly: "Actually, the total is two thousand four hundred, I kept three hundred, dedicated three hundred to the king of Yujun, and gave all the others to the governor, and it was not in vain for the governor's cultivation."

When the governor heard this, he didn't realize that he had changed his face, frowned and thought for a moment, and said: "This is the timely rain, I will give it to you according to the parity, and ask the court for credit." ”

The governor said, "You can discuss this matter with Governor Zhang." ”

Ye Qing was silent, the governor was a little surprised, and in a blink of an eye he understood, what else could these warriors under his command do?

With a slightly dark face, he pondered in his heart, but he didn't show his face, and asked with a smile: "I heard that you also got a lot of cattle and sheep."

Ye Qing listened to his tone, so he leaned over and said, "Yes, there are about 3,000 ploughing cattle, but 1,000 have been deducted for Jiangzhu County."

I told you about the situation one by one.

The governor smiled, got up and poured tea for Ye Qing, he could pour tea with his own hands, there were few in the whole state, Ye Qing was surprised, and hurriedly took it in fear, so he listened to him and said: "This Jiangzhu County county order is considered to have a heart - there is also a need in this Cultivating Cattle Prefecture, and I also bought it at a low price." ”

"I have five hundred heads in my house, and I can give all the others to the Governor. ”

The governor smiled, his expression was solemn, he didn't say this anymore, and asked about Ye Qing's several battles on the grassland.

This is the proper meaning, Ye Qing replied, and even Yu Fan's military exploits were not concealed at all.

The governor didn't see anything strange on his face: "How did I hear that I almost merged with Yu Jiahuo?"

"How dare Ye Qing waste his work for personal gain. ”

"Oh, that's what you really think?"

"Of course. Ye Qing responded and bowed: "Although there is something wrong with Yu Fan and I, this is an internal matter, and in the face of the great enemy of the Northern Wei Dynasty, we are the same enemy." ”

The governor's face was straight: "Your idea has the body of a minister"

"Uh......" Ye Qing smiled bitterly, considering that the meeting time was not short, he took his leave, and the governor sent him downstairs: "Your reward is already on the way, go home and get it yourself." ”

"Then raise it a little more?"

"Roll"

Seeing Ye Qing go away, the governor was no longer as angry as he had just now, pinched his eyebrows, and sighed a little tiredly: "This one of them is not worrying, come here, check what's going on?"

"Yes, sir, it's not too early for the night, go back and rest first?" the butler persuaded in the back.

"There is still a military situation to see, the war in the north is critical, we have to support logistics, maybe the war will escalate in a few days, and even the state army will be on top of the ......"
