There is an autumn rain and a cool breeze. After the rain, Huai'an Mansion is in the season of colorful fallen leaves. When the light of the morning sun is reflected on the roots of the city wall, the official road becomes popular.
The city gate has been opened according to the old system for thousands of years, with morning bells and evening drums. But today, the soldiers guarding the city gate were all trembling. From time to time, they turned their heads and glanced at the base of the city wall on the left, and then whispered in horror to the goose man next to them.
Da da da da…
The sound of horse hooves rumbled, and the unique black armor and strong horses announced the extraordinary origins of this elite cavalry team.
In particular, the young man riding a donkey who is escorted by an iron horse is even more eye-catching. The dragon head, fish pattern, and gold and silver threads are not allowed to be worn except by the rich and powerful.
Even the donkey under him looked more noble than ordinary people. The long donkey's face was full of disdain, as if he was dissatisfied with the eyes of the city guards looking at him.
"I, Jia Cong, the Dragon Imperial Guard of Qianhu, have been ordered by General Jia Gong of Rongguo Mansion to come here to deliver the order. Please hurry up and ask the magistrate of Huai'an Prefecture and other officials below to come to the city gate immediately to receive the order!"
Jia Cong did not directly take out the imperial gold order, but raised Jia She's official certificate and shouted a few words at the group of soldiers guarding the gate.
There are not many people in Jiangnan who don't know about Rongguo Mansion. After all, the Jia family started from Jinling. There are four princes, eight princes and twelve princes, and the Jia family in Jinling occupies two mansions.
It has been prestigious for hundreds of years, even if it has declined slightly in recent years, it is still a hundred-footed insect that is not dead. No one in ordinary officials dares to neglect it.
The leading captain mustered up the courage to step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Sir Qianhu, the people coming and going in front of the city gate will disturb your serenity. Please come into the city for a while..."
"There is no need to enter the city. It is better to deal with this order in front of the city gate. After all, the cause is the pile of heads of water bandits on your left."
Jia Cong raised his riding whip and pointed to the left side of the city gate. Xue Pan immediately stiffened and looked in the direction of Jia Cong's finger...
vomit……
Putting fear aside, not all the flies that left Jianghuai were dead. The sky had just cleared, and it was when the flies were at their most prosperous. The pile of heads was almost drowned by the black mass of flies.
In fact, Jia Cong himself was about to vomit, but Mr. Cong is a man who has been tempered by the sage, so this little scene... yuck!
He took advantage of touching his nose and quietly threw a plum into his mouth. He thanked the great sister Xichun for having such a good habit of hiding snacks everywhere!
The captain wanted to persuade him again, but Jia Cong stopped saying anything. He flicked his sleeves, snorted and fell asleep on the donkey's back.
Niu Ben, who acted as the deputy general, said in a low voice: "Master Qianhu is passing military orders. Don't you understand the consequences of disobeying military orders? Go quickly!"
…
"Brother Xue, you can't do this! The ancestors of the Xue family were also heroes who followed the Taizu Grandfather and personally led people to deliver supplies to the front line. Why do you vomit after seeing someone's head?"
At this time, Xue Pan was almost driven crazy by Jia Cong. Is this man a devil? How dare someone open his eyes and make him stare at that pile... ugh!
Jia Cong suppressed his nausea and stimulated Xue Pan with each sentence: "Brother Xue, you must hold on. When you get through this, you will never be frightened by such small scenes in the future. I think of my little brother back then. Holding a long knife, he went in and out of Tienwang Mountain seven times, killing all the thieves. He just carried His Majesty out of the pile of dead people, and then he got this flying fish suit. Brother Xue, tell me if you want to be like my little brother and stand out. ?”
"vomit……"
Xue Pan couldn't hold it back and retched again.
He allowed the two Yulin Lang to hold his limp body, and said weakly: "Master Cong, my Grandpa Tian, please take away your magical powers, stop talking, and let me take a good rest. Brother, I am Stupid, I’m not stupid, why are you carrying His Majesty on your back? Are you able to thrive in the face of the wind? Duke Pardon asked me to come and see the world, so there’s no need to torture me like this!”
"Don't worry about those details..."
Jia Cong, who knew he was bragging, waved his hands indifferently, changed the subject and said: "Anyway, since my father has asked Brother Xue to come to the world, it proves that he is optimistic about you and plans to train and train you..."
As he spoke, he signaled the two Yulin Langs to step back and whispered in Xue Pan's ear: "Brother Xue, the Xue family's tens of millions of wealth cannot be preserved without strength. Auntie and Sister Xue are still waiting for you to get ahead. In the future, Xue Pan will Whether the eldest brother can get drunk and lie on the lap of a beautiful woman, he has to rely on power to get it. If brother Xue is not willing to follow the path of a martial artist, then when I go back, I will go and talk to my aunt, how about letting brother Xue accompany me to study? I have a gift from a saint. The classics below can be shared with Brother Xue!"
After Jia Cong said these words in Xue Pan's ear, he could hold back his fear and nausea and stare at the pile of heads without being held by Yu Linlang.
Whether it was because he wanted to get ahead or because he didn't want to be forced to study, Jia Cong had finally completed the small task assigned by his father.
At this time, it was already the beginning of Si Shi, and more and more people were coming in and out of Huai'an, and the city gate was already crowded with people watching the excitement.
The terrifying pile of heads and the majestic black armor cavalry attracted everyone's attention. Jia Cong had already run to several farmers and bought a lot of fruits from their burdens.
He even borrowed water to wash two radishes, and gnawed them one by one with relish.
Even after all the radishes were eaten, Cui Xuanye and others still didn't come over. Just when he was about to get angry, there was a loud noise in the city gate. Jia Cong sneered in his heart. He really dared to put on airs with himself. If I don't give you a hard time, my surname will no longer be Jia!
He touched his mouth, mounted Dabao's donkey and returned to the team.
I saw several officials and a large number of officials coming out of the city, followed by a row of carriages filled with various boxes and bags. The leader was wearing a Yunyan Fei robe, and he should be Cui Xuanye, the prefect of Huai'an today.
After Cui Xuanye saw Jia Cong and others, he was slightly dazed at first, then he smiled and bowed slightly: "Cui Xuanye, the magistrate of Huai'an Prefecture, led the whole government to pay homage to Lord Qianhu!"
Jia Cong would not be deceived by this birdman's flattering appearance. He did not even accept the gift, but hid aside.
After getting off the donkey, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency, the prefect, is not good at learning etiquette. A lower official is a lower official. You are a higher official. It is your lower official who should salute you first. General Wude, Xiaoqiwei, and Longjingwei." Jia Cong from a thousand households pays homage to Magistrate Cui!"
If he had accepted Cui Xuanye's gift just now, it wouldn't be long before the censors would accuse him of disrespecting the superior and violating the etiquette system.
I'm so stupid for being such a young master!
Ah!
Do you want to use this little cleverness on Mr. Cong to frame me?
dream!
Cui Xuanye frowned and thought that this child should not be underestimated.
He glanced at the pile of heads at the base of the city wall with his peripheral vision, suppressed his irritation and nausea, and said with a smile: "Master Qianhu is joking, you are the imperial guard and the special envoy of pardon, so naturally you have high official status." At the first level, a lower-ranking official cannot neglect..."
Again?
Jia Cong doesn't want to talk nonsense with this person. This has given him a higher status as an official. Will he not be praised to the sky in a while? If he acquiesces to this statement today, he will definitely suffer when he returns to Beijing.
Thinking of this, Jia Cong stopped chatting with this guy, took out the imperial golden order, held it high and said: "Your Majesty's golden order is here, Cui Xuanye listens to the order!"
