My young master’s ten thousand taels of silver! "
Young Master Liu had a sad look on his face and walked toward the front yard with his hands clasped in his sleeves and his body hunched.
"My dear brother, as the saying goes, it's hard to make money but hard to eat. It's not easy to make some money for my brother. Don't be so lavish and lavish on me all at once. Leave me nine thousand eighty-eight, nine hundred taels!"
He looked remorseful, as if Mr. Liu who was patting Qi Liang on the shoulder not long ago and speaking eloquently without giving face to his elder brother was possessed by someone else's soul!
After arriving in the front yard, Young Master Liu looked around. Apart from the servants, there was no sign of Qi Run, his wife and Qi Liang.
Even his own two children were taken away. This is really a rhythm that he will not come back until he spends ten thousand taels!
Young Master Liu glanced at the inner courtyard with sad eyes and let out a long breath.
"You can't steal a chicken but lose a lot of rice. Shouldn't you regret it at the beginning? Shouldn't you regret it at the beginning? After getting married, you want to do whatever you want. It's just a matter of time. Why did Young Master Ben spend 10,000 taels to teach you a lesson?"
It was still early and Liu Mingzhi did not intend to go back to the inner courtyard to feel uncomfortable. He planned to buy some gifts in the city and go to Dangyang Academy to visit the old man.
I don’t know how well Yun Shu’s sister has improved her flute playing skills.
Although it is not perfect, at least it should be in the state of using it freely!
"Uncle, do you want to ride a horse?"
"No more riding, let's walk to warm up!"
"Yes, uncle, please walk slowly! The streets are slippery and be careful!"
Liu Mingzhi shook his shoulders and looked at the governor's office next door. He didn't know if the current governor of Jinling was Kong Dao. Ordinarily, he should have been transferred long ago after three years!
The current governor of Jinling doesn’t know which one it is!
I wanted to take a look but finally gave up the idea. Going to the door at this time is like trying to accept a bribe. Just because I don’t have that intention doesn’t mean that others don’t think so!
Liu Mingzhi, who had just walked down the steps of Qi Mansion, stared blankly at the carriage parked in front of him. What happened? Are relatives and friends of his father-in-law Qi Run coming to visit?
"Ning Zihan, the governor of Gongzhou, pays homage to the imperial envoy!"
Liu Mingzhi stared blankly as a figure emerged from the carriage and knelt down in front of him. He didn't realize what was going on for a moment!
"Ning Zihan? A familiar name! Gongzhou? Ning Zihan, the governor of Gongzhou, Qingzhou Prefecture!"
Only then did Liu Mingzhi realize who was coming, and he hurriedly bent down to help the person kneeling in front of him: "Master Ning, get up quickly, I, He Dehe, can actually bear your kneeling ceremony!"
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Ning Zihan's familiar face and smiled lightly.
Although not particularly familiar with each other, after what happened in Qingzhou Mansion, he and Ning Zihan were reunited as old friends.
Nowadays, traveling basically relies on horseback riding and car travel. Some people may be separated for a lifetime. It was very sad to see Liu Mingzhi, a once familiar person again.
I passed by too many people in a hurry, and how many of them met again!
"Why did you come to Jinling... You are not the current governor of Jinling, are you?"
Ning Zihan looked at Liu Mingzhi with admiration and nodded heavily: "Your Majesty, it's been four years since we left Qingzhou Prefecture. Are you in good health? The official and the hundreds of thousands of people in Qingzhou Prefecture have been worried about your health. Later, I learned from the merchants traveling to Qingzhou that my lord, not only had the plague been cured, but you had also been promoted, and I was relieved!"
"Your Excellency, you have successfully asked the people of Qingzhou Prefecture to grow winter wheat, and it has also affected some surrounding prefectures. After many years, the people of Qingzhou Prefecture have once again had enough food. After paying taxes, they can eat and drink without any worries for a year! Examine the merits of the general I credited Xiaguan with his merits and was transferred from Qingzhou Prefecture to a land of plenty like Jinling! Xiaguan has been working in Jinling for a year!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded clearly: "I see, I never told anyone when I returned to my hometown. How did you know?"
"Xiaoguan met senior Qi Runqi Yuanwai on the street and learned from him. After bidding farewell to Yuan Qi, Xianguan hurried over to pay homage to the Imperial Envoy. He disturbed the Imperial Envoy. I hope you won't blame me!"
"It doesn't matter. There is a wall between the Qi Mansion and the Governor's Mansion. It's natural for you to get closer, Mr. Ning!"
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, please tell your subordinates to listen attentively!"
"Don't be like this. I'm no longer the Imperial Envoy. It sounds awkward for you to call me that. If you really don't know how to address me, just call me Master Liu!"
"Yes, I am stupid. In my heart, I am still a good man who worked hard for the people. All the people in Qingzhou Prefecture will remember your grace of rebirth! If you have time, you can go to Qingzhou Prefecture for a visit. The disaster-prone Qingzhou Prefecture has also become prosperous!"
"Okay, okay, I will definitely visit my old place again when I have time, whether it is Qingzhou or Gongzhou. Now that you have arrived in Jinling as an official, you must never forget your duty to benefit the country as an official. God, there is a scale in the hearts of the people, and neither as a human being nor as an official can go against their own conscience!"
"Xiaguan has always kept in mind the teachings given by the Lord when he left Qingzhou... That's right. You see, Xiaguan is confused. It's freezing outside. If you don't mind, please come to the humble residence and talk!"
Liu Mingzhi hesitated and nodded. It’s not too late to go to the old man’s place tomorrow!
"Master Ning, let's just find a hotel and sit down. It would be inconvenient to go to your house and mobilize a large number of people!"
"Yes, Mr. Liu, please get in the car, and I will sit down at a restaurant as a host!"
Liu Mingzhi was not polite and got into the carriage and sat down. Ning Zihan gave the driver a few words and got in!
"Master Ning, are Miss Ning Shuang and Mr. Gu Qingquan okay? I hired a matchmaker back then, but because I was infected with the plague, I didn't have time to congratulate them in person!"
"Thank you for your concern. My daughter and Qingquan are living a happy life now. My daughter's eye disease was also cured by an old fairy who passed by. She gave birth to a pair of twins the year before last. This is all thanks to your blessing!"
"That's good. It's good that lovers will eventually get married. The past is like smoke. Many things are just things and people have changed. We don't see each other anymore!"
"What your lord is saying is that I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to meet you again today. Regarding my lord's expedition to the Western Regions, Dalong has posted notices in all the state capitals. I have served under your lord's rule." Be proud of it for a few days!”
"That's ridiculous! It's just fate!"
The two old friends met and chatted about their daily life!
Most of the conversation was about what happened in Qingzhou Mansion after Liu Mingzhi left. Liu Mingzhi looked extremely confused after learning from Ning Zihan that the people of Qingzhou Mansion actually built a longevity monument and a shrine for him.
It always feels a bit awkward to set up a shrine for a living person. It seems that no one except Wei Zhongxian has set up a shrine for a living person!
Although it was the spontaneous will of the people, Liu Mingzhi still couldn't accept it, but the matter was over and he couldn't say anything more.
Because Young Master Liu knew that it was useless to say anything and it was beyond his reach.
"Sir, we've arrived!"
The coachman's voice came, and the carriage slowly stopped.
"Sir, please get out of the car. The restaurants in Jinling City are definitely not the best, but the place with the most authentic taste is still here. I hope you won't dislike the place where Xiaguan comes!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the restaurant in front of him with a strange expression.
Why are you here!
