Chapter 103: Overcast Wind and Rain

As soon as Xu Xiao left, the miscellaneous generals and the captains of Lingzhou gradually gathered outside a mansion and submitted the famous sect to the general's door. Most of them were made of expensive famous paper and written in mud gold. We cannot expect that these rough men of the generals had a high and ancient style. On this street, the threshold for the mansion was the highest. Logically speaking, the visitors were the most popular, but the traffic in the new mansion of Lingzhou was amazing. Xu Fengnian was chatting with Xu Beizhi in the mansion. Unexpectedly, Xu Beizhi heard that he was not allowed to be an official in Li Gongde. Not only was he not surprised, he said this was reasonable. Xu Fengnian did not see through whether this guy was praising him for being slick or ridiculed him for being a fake tiger.

No power can be done, but since Xu Beizhi, who was going to wear the hat of a governor in the future, was not in a hurry, Xu Fengnian borrowed a donkey to wait for news. Zheng Fulu, the manager of the mansion, drew an old man from Lingzhou from Qingliang Mountain. He was middle-aged and looked handsome. In the past, His Royal Highness bought poems and essays with a lot of money, and the silver was the ones that Zheng Fulu had used. He was very reliable. At this moment, he ran to the entrance of the study with a happy face and reported to the prince about the bustling and noisy outside the mansion. He held a large bag of famous posts for visiting, and cut off gold powder from his head. He thought that he could go to the Huqiu Building in Lingzhou to have a meal of flower wine that was not lost. Xu Fengnian shook his hands and said, "I will say that there will be no one."

Zheng Fulu bent down and responded without any doubts and talked too much. He turned around and said that General Lingzhou did not see guests today. Then he closed the door of the mansion without even letting go of the side door. It was obvious that there was no room for harmony, so that everyone gave up completely. These domineering warriors in Lingzhou were turned away and did not look much discouraged. They were originally calling friends to join in groups of friends. Who would really expect that General Lingzhou who had been a few days to be promoted to him?

In the end, it was the identity of the Prince of Beiliang that they had to lower their figures to drink the northwest wind. Moreover, there was an unwritten rule in the officialdom of Beiliang. Youzhou was mostly from Yan Wenluan, and most of the Lingzhou was Zhong Hongwu's private house backyard. The well water came from both directions without overturning the river. Most of these people were the old subordinates of General Huaihua, and some of the direct confidants who were favored by General Zhong were even reluctant to show their faces. Like several powerful lieutenants under the deputy generals, they gathered together to cook wine in the fire, and privately complained that this prince

It was too cruel and ruthless, so he lost the face of the old general Zhong. He refused to stop when he saw it. He came to Lingzhou to swagger and stepped on the face of the old general who had fallen to the ground. He was not as unprofessional as young people as he was. They were all indignant and stood up for the old general. One or two irritable lieutenants slapped the table on the spot. A few of them were more cunning, and their faces were as deep as water and their eyes were gloomy when they were drinking. They wanted them to make the Xu family's rebellion, and they didn't dare to give them a hundred courages, but after being immersed in the officialdom over the years, they also learned a lot.

The trick is to be lazy and easy to do. Moreover, they are not only military men, but also those present have no in-law relationships with the civil servants and men in the Lingzhou officialdom. These old men who sit behind the official documents are well versed in the rules and standards, and don’t even have to say anything angry. The operation of the Lingzhou officialdom will not be effective. The key is that no one can find fault. Aren’t you foreign scholars coming to Lingzhou to grab a job? Taking the hat of an official is far more than robbing the hate of love. These lieutenants whispered and discussed the pros and cons, and they all smiled gloomy after leaving.

The young gentry of Northern Liang is therefore more of the clerks from poor families. These people are actually not lacking in talent and are naturally keen on camp. If high-ranking officials are the mighty King of Hell on the stage, then this group of people is a more difficult guardian. If some clerks are skillful, they can even undermine officials, control the officialdom, and make their immediate superiors a decoration. One of them is to target the ills of clerks, which is directly regarded as a disaster for harming the country. However, Zhang Shoufu recognized that he had a good idea of ​​governing the country, but he did not improve. The important officials in the court also criticized and ridiculed them. Especially some of the pillars of the temple who were born in poor scholars chose to watch coldly. The court where scholars occupied the mainstream would still be so bumped, so Bei Liang would naturally be even more difficult to escape. Nearly a thousand scholars went to Liang,

The branches and tentacles are not thick, but they penetrate every corner of the officialdom, and the clerks in Lingzhou, who are undoubtedly the first to bear the brunt of the attack. So Lingzhou, which is at the end of the year, is soon filled with chaos, and copywriting is gradually piled up, gangs are fighting in the downtown area, prisoners are killed, and the granary of the government either catches fire for no reason or gets a few inches of mold. All trivial matters emerge like bamboo shoots after the rain. Not to mention the county and county chiefs are worried that they will not be able to live a peaceful year, even the management makes Li Gongde begin to be exhausted, and every day, subordinates come to complain. On the contrary, Huangnan County seems to be ahead of the crowd, and the political affairs of all kinds are organized and organized. Longqing County is completely opposite, and the situation is particularly miserable, with wind leaks. It is said that the prefect Zhong Cheng is always in his heart, and he is busy until he is ready to take the light every night, and he is already worried about a few white hairs.

The officialdom of Lingzhou is in chaos, and the front door of the General's Mansion in Lingzhou is neglected, which is very suitable for the cold winter season.

A carriage drove out of Lingzhou Prefecture City and headed to Huangnan County. The groom was wearing a yellow wolf-skin short jacket. The more burly the figure, the more shabby it looked. I am afraid no one dared to believe that this was the deputy general of Lingzhou.

In addition to Xu Fengnian, there is also a maid Hu Yan Guanyin. These days, Xu Fengnian has been reading the resumes of Lingzhou officials overnight in detail. There are many red pens and circles, and I don’t pay much attention to this young woman who would have been on the list of rouge positive reviews when she came to Beiliang earlier. When Xu Fengnian crossed the threshold, she decided to ask Zheng Fulu to call her out of the city. I don’t know if the weather is not suitable for the land. Hu Yan Guanyin is not as lively and energetic as when she was in trouble on the grassland. She is bleak in spirit and no longer has her original spirituality. Xu Fengnian thought that after returning to Lingzhou, she would send her to a safe and peaceful place with the opportunity. It is better than in the high gate.

The deep house was sick and slowly destroyed. Some women either held it tightly in their palms or really cherished it, but instead wasted natural resources. Originally, if Hu Yan Guanyin had adapted to Beiliang, Xu Fengnian naturally didn't mind keeping it by his side. It didn't matter whether he was eating or not, it was pleasing to the eye, and it was good to keep it pleasing to the eye. Xu Fengnian was not idle when he took the bus. He had a background of several major officials in Huangnan County. These dense and delicate little calligraphy were all the hard work of the second-class maids in Wutongyuan who worked all night long. Which were from the hands of green ants and which cucumbers were written by Xu Fengnian, who had been with them for many years, could tell at a glance.

Xu Fengnian rubbed his eyebrows, put down the stack of letters, passed it in his mind, and then lifted up the curtain, and the unique cold breath of the cold came to his face. Xu Fengnian had not put down the curtain for a long time. After Huyan Guanyin left the city, she felt a little sleepy. She curled up in the corner of the carriage and couldn't stand the sleepiness. She was slightly dozed. When the wind blew, she suddenly woke up. She quietly looked at his side face and bit her thin lips. It was bright and bright, making people mistakenly think that if her teeth were slightly hard, they would bite out a few drops of blood.

Seeing that she was a little uncomfortable with the cold, Xu Fengnian quickly put down the curtain and smiled and said, "I couldn't sleep last night and wandered around like a wandering soul in the mansion. When I saw that there was a pot of phoenix flowers in the window of your house. It was clear that the flowering period had passed, how could it still bloom when the weather was cold?"

Huyan Guanyin blinked and said softly: "When I first entered the mansion, I saw a few flowers at the corner of the wall on the mansion. It was not like planting in the mansion, so I plucked up the courage to transplant one in a small pot. I don't know its name is Immortal Flower, and I don't know the flowering period."

Xu Fengnian nodded and smiled, "It is like the clerks who caused trouble to me in Beiliang. It is not a good product. But even though it looks delicate, it can grow anywhere. Poor places like Beiliang are no exception. Some women who cannot afford to buy rouge and water powder like to use its flower juice to dye their nails in summer and autumn, which is very eye-catching. Although this kind of words was derogatory by famous Jiangnan scholars who were praised as a cheap product, and even gave it a harsh alias of chrysanthemum maid, I think no matter whether they are the maids of chrysanthemums or not, they can be used for viewing and dyeing their nails. Even if they are all used, I like it very much. In my house,

There are many, all over the ground, and other famous flowers and trees cannot be blocked. However, I have never seen it bloom in winter. I guess no one is willing to plant it in a pot and move it back into the house. You accidentally delayed the flowering period. By the way, this impotence flower is very solid, so my second sister gave it a nickname, called "impulsive". When the sun is exposed to the sun, the wind blows, or you pinch your nails, the seeds will pop out very far. Whenever I was a child, every time I made my second sister angry, she would be dark with me and never say a word for a few days. I always like to use impatient attitude to play her face. I would rather she turn her back than ignore me."

As a result, when Xu Fengnian saw Hu Yan Guanyin looking at him, Xu Fengnian said embarrassedly: "You have not made any mistakes, so I can't scold you. Besides, I'm just having too many things at hand and I'm very confused. It's not that I don't want to pay attention to you. I can write the four words of anger, self-reflection, but I can write it. It's not that badly worse than a famous calligrapher. Unfortunately, I have been doing it badly and often take off my anger. You have never seen my father and I get angry. When I was ignorant, whenever I was ignorant, I got angry at him and could chase him with a broom. But now when I think about it, I don't feel too guilty. Who made him my father and my closest person? Yes? Besides, his legs and feet were very neat and ran very fast at that time. Others respectfully called him the King of Beiliang and the General, so I just called him the general."

Huyan Guanyin looked at him and grinned. His smile turned out to be innocent like a child. Huyan Guanyin lowered his eyebrows and eyes and did not look at him.

Xu Fengnian saw her retreating timidly and mocked her a little. Could it be that she looked like a gangster with the word "descendant" engraved on her forehead? I remember that the entire tribe on the grassland treated herself as a god, and her true colors were revealed so quickly? Xu Fengnian took back her thoughts, lowered her head and continued to pick up the letters on her knees, and quickly focused on her mind, giving the Strategy Envoy Li several days. Perhaps it was the sudden wind and rain in the officialdom in Lingzhou that made Uncle Li busy with government affairs and didn't care about Xu Beizhi for the time being

Although it was not suitable for his wishes, Xu Fengnian was willing to endure it again. The Yan family chose a small road to escape from Lingzhou overnight. If it weren't for his suggestion to Xu Xiao, Yan Jiexi might not have been able to leave Beiliang so smoothly. Xu Fengnian warned himself not to be so soft-hearted in the future. Huangnan County is the place where Li Gongde made his fortune. Although Li Gongde has a bad reputation as an official, he is not very capable of identifying and employing people. It is natural to be a nepotist. However, several disciples are considered capable officials in the officialdom of Beiliang. Li Gongde can do so.

It wasn't these people who helped him to gain a good face. Xu Xiao wouldn't be so generous that he would let Li Gongde become the only master. Song Yan, the prefect of Huangnan County, was the best. He had no prominent teacher, and had a self-taught talent, and used both magic and power. If he hadn't had many objections to Xu Xiao, and with Li Gongde's other "dog legs" could not pee in the same pot and could not help each other, otherwise he would never stop at the prefect of a county. This time, the reason why Li Gongde really cared about this time was that he was anxious and was in Huangnan County.

It is unusual, which was usually a brilliant political achievement, but when the new General of Lingzhou was trapped in the quagmire, did Huangnan County become a dazzling bird? His Royal Highness was wrapped in the mud, and you, Song Yan, were on the high branches. Even if you clearly didn't make any noise, it would make people feel terrified. Li Gongde felt sorry for the governor of Lingzhou. It was not a sin to pretend to be confused. I am afraid that because of Huangnan County, you were hated by His Royal Highness who walked in front of the North Gorge for the first time.

Xu Fengnian breathed out, narrowed his eyes and pondered. If nothing unexpected happened, Song Yan must have received one or two secret letters from the master who made the master feel bitterly, asking this disciple to slander himself immediately.

The people under his command are too good at being an official and don’t even care about doing things. It’s a headache. Now that Zhong Hongwu is a lesson in the past, no one will be foolishly fighting with him, the general of Lingzhou. In this way, they are all feminine tricks that avoid their edge, and they become more and more disgusting. Xu Beizhi is not righteous either. He failed to get the governor of Lingzhou and went back to Longqing County to watch the show. A copper coin that is no longer circulating in the market is slowly rolling between Xu Fengnian’s five fingers. Hu Yan Guanyin’s eyes are still watching the copper coin rolling, boring back and forth, but she just looks at it with relish. So much so that Xu Fengnian looked up at her, but the woman didn’t notice it.

Xu Fengnian put away the copper coins that Prince Yan Zhi returned to him and said softly: "I will go back to Liangzhou before New Year's Eve. You can leave Lingzhou together. Do you want to go back to Beimang Grassland or go to Jiangnan to take a look?"

Huyan Guanyin seemed to realize it and asked, "Are you with you?"

Xu Fengnian couldn't help laughing and said, "Of course you are alone, so how can I take it off."

She blinked and lowered her head.

Xu Fengnian stretched out his finger and knocked her head, and said angrily: "The entire officialdom in Lingzhou colluded and played with me. Why, you learned and used it now? Believe it or not, I will drive you off the carriage?"

She raised her head, still silent.

Xu Fengnian was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want me to talk to you?"

Huyan Guanyin's pretty face flushed.

Xu Fengnian laughed loudly, reached out and pinched her delicate cheeks that were shattering, and then said helplessly: "Do I say you are stupid or you are stupid? You are so dull, of course I thought you were unhappy with me, so I thought about letting you go to a place where you can be happy. You must know that on the grassland, you dare to take the initiative to enter the tiger's mouth and ride on me to scatter. Let's see, you are dead now."

She wanted to speak shyly, but Xu Fengnian sighed and asked her to sit on her lap, and walked around her round shoulders with one hand, resting her chin on her head, and continued to look through the letter papers.

This is called the saint's silence.

It's really unreasonable that I can't become a land god in this life.

The woman sitting sideways leans forward and squeezes one of his arms with her chest.

Xu Fengnian didn't care too much at first, just thinking that she was uncomfortable, but when her arms became more and more clear, she felt her uneasy and knew her soon, and it seemed that she could not become a land god.

Xu Fengnian placed the stack of letter paper on the ground, picked up one, and slid the other hand into her collar, just through a layer of thin satin, holding a ball of smooth and full, with five fingers slightly sunken.

Huyan Guanyin leaned back her head and rested on his arm holding the letter paper. Her eyes were as charming as silk. She looked up at this guy, at a loss and made a faint nasal sound.

Xu Fengnian was so hypocritical that he pretended to be calm.

In order not to make a sound, the ignorant woman bit a green finger.

This natural charm is extremely attractive.
