The largest official in the entire Xianyun County is only in the seventh rank.
As the second-grade county head, her status is comparable to that of noble ladies in the capital; of course, this is only on the surface. A real noble daughter of the clan not only has a strong backer, but also countless resources. Minghua earned her own resources, and her only backer was Xu Shoufu.
"Big brother, second grade! Has a high-ranking official emerged from our Xianyun County?"
"It's not an official, it's a title. People with titles don't kneel when they see officials; even low-ranking officials have to kneel down to say hello when they see family members of officials with second-grade titles." Yi Cheng explained: "Although it's just a casual title, He is also receiving a salary from the imperial court; he enjoys the rights of a first- and second-grade title; in short, he has everything but no real power."
After Yi Cheng finished speaking, he left, but the people next to him twitched at the corners of their mouths. Why would they be so enthusiastic if they had no real power?
Yi Cheng chuckled, naturally knowing what these people were thinking; it can only be said that these people are short-sighted, but he is not afraid of them being obedient.
What's wrong with people who don't have real power? As long as they have real power through connections. If they really want to help me, why can't they do it? What's more, he knew that there were two young children from the Xiao family in Xiaojia Village, Xianyun County, and the head of Zhaoyang County was one of them.
He is in charge of the inn and is well informed about the outside world. Because he is in the inn, he is also aware of major events in the capital. Although the news is transmitted slower, he will not miss it.
When Minghua received the letter and read the letter from the patriarch, she felt relieved; but she didn't know that the Xiao Wang family, mother and daughter, were tortured in the small dark room and almost went crazy. In the small dark room, no one spoke, and they had to Even if the three of them, mother and daughter, met at work, they wouldn't be able to talk about it. The clan members guarding them were dedicated to their duties and would never let them say a word. He would be scolded for even making eye contact, which shows how harsh the punishment is.
Their punishment was not a short period of time, nor was it ten days and a half months; it lasted for half a year. Erya, who was already depressed, became even more dull and did not even dare to speak.
After Xiao Wang came back, he worked conscientiously and didn't dare to think about it; Xiao Daya was dropped out of school by Xiao Zhengrong, and his family could no longer afford the tuition. He worked odd jobs all day long to earn money, but Daya couldn't study. Make a name for yourself. If there is no hope, she will naturally not be allowed to continue studying.
When Minghua learned the news about her second wife, she was on her way back; she and her brother were preparing to come back to take part in the scholar examination. They studied at Xingzhi Academy for almost a year. With Lin Ru's guidance, Xiao Hongkang made rapid academic progress. Lin Ru said that he is talented and willing to work hard, and is a good prospect.
This return trip is no longer a trip of three or two people in a carriage; instead, the family returns home together, with a lot of servants and luggage around them.
Minghua was assigned four nuns as standard, leaving one nun to manage matters in the capital. The people trained by Xiao Pingfu stayed in the capital and took care of the two mansions. Xiao Pingfu also came back to take care of the external affairs around Minghua.
In addition, the people who serve Xiao Le and Mr. Xiao and Mr. and Mrs. Xiao are at least a maid and a nanny, and the traveling team will be huge; plus the escorts and other personnel invited, the returning team will be huge.
After traveling for a month, we finally arrived in Xianyun County.
When Xiao Pingfu came to report, Minghua was closing her eyes to rest, "County Lord, Xianyun County has arrived."…

Minghua opened her eyes and signaled the mothers to lift the curtain and take a look outside; the familiar yet unfamiliar city gate was not the gate from Xiaojiacun to the county seat, but the gate from the state capital to Xianyun County. The door is completely in two directions.
What Minghua is most familiar with is the city gate leading to Xiaojiacun. She has only walked through the city gate here once; counting the time she is about to enter the city, it counts as two times.
"We're finally here. I haven't seen Xianyun County for a long time." Qing missed it. "Are grandma and my parents okay?"
Xiao Pingfu nodded and replied respectfully, "The old man, the old lady, the master and the madam are all very well. County Lord, please rest assured, should we enter the city now, or wait?"
People are queuing up at the city gate, forming two long lines, waiting to enter the city.
"It's getting late. Take my sign and go talk to the soldiers guarding the city to enter Xianyun County as soon as possible. We have to rush back to Xiaojia Village. There are only a few things to do after we get back.
too much. Minghua ordered to go down and gave Xiao Pingfu the token.
The county master's token is specially made, and she also has the master's and master's tokens in her hand, each of which is different.
Her county master's token is black with gold, her master's token is pure black with white, and the token given by her master was jade; it has the totem of his industry on it, so just go to the relevant store with the token. Can be used.
"yes."
Xiao Pingfu took the token and went to the city gate to talk to the guard. When he took out the token, the guard was stunned. After taking a closer look, he saw that it had the word "Zhaoyang" written on it and the word "County Lord" on the back, which obviously meant he had a title. There is a noble lady.
"Our county boss is in a hurry to return to his hometown. We have a lot of work."
"Yes, yes, I will evacuate an aisle and let the county lord pass first." The guard nodded quickly and called on a dozen guards to line up the crowd into a line, leaving enough room for the carriage to pass.
Xiao Pingfu gave him some broken silver, returned to the carriage, and talked through the curtain.
"County Lord, you can pass."
"Well, let's go in."
Xiao Pingfu responded, straightened up, waved, "Enter the city!"
The motorcade headed towards the city gate, and passersby stood there watching the motorcade enter before it exploded.
"Whose fleet is that?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it before." said a local from Xianyun County.
The outsiders were thoughtful. The four carriages did not have family emblems; the people guarding them were all riding horses, and the servants accompanying them did not look like people from a small place like Xianyun County.
"It looks like they are from outside." A man dressed as a businessman said, "The people following him don't look like guards or servants. They all have good fists and kicks."
"Hey, how did you know that this person has boxing and kicking skills?"
The businessman said proudly: "I am a businessman who travels all over the world. Who has never seen me? The man following me has a knife hanging on his horse. It is not simple at first glance. He must be good at fists and kicks." "
"Youdao is not a guard?"
"Who told you that those with swords are bodyguards? Those with swords are also bodyguards. The swords hanging on the horses don't look like they are made by officials. These people must be bodyguards."
Everyone didn't take it seriously even though they were having fun. The guards at home don't necessarily have to use government-made swords, right?
"Don't believe it, the bodyguards I have seen are not old or young; those people must be bodyguards, not bodyguards."
The people laughed and said, "It doesn't matter to us whether it's true or not. They are noble people, and even the guards have to let them go first. It means that their identities are not simple. No matter how much we say, it's useless. What's true and false must not be those of them." Only those who go in know it!"
Those who went in referred to the people in the motorcade. .
