Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey
Chapter 539: The Taste of Power and Nobility
At the entrance of Huazhu Port, ships come and go.
Li Tianding, a porter, looked at the scorching sun while carrying sacks. Drops of juice rolled down his chin, splashing onto the blue-gray stone slabs, evaporating with a breath. "Why hasn't the Liangshui envoy of Pingyang Prefecture arrived yet? The post station sent a letter a few days ago, but he hasn't been seen for two consecutive days. It's been a pain for us who are doing our work, Qin."
Two fat and thin night watchmen of the prefecture sat in the teahouse waiting. They were sweating all over, and sweat stains were visible on their black clothes. They fanned themselves impatiently.
"Misfortunes come from the mouth." The thin clerk drank his tea. "The city is a big place. The bluestone road can accommodate three carriages side by side. The buildings are so high that you can't see the sky. The sixth-rank Hengshui Envoy is one level higher than the county magistrate in terms of rank! He is young and powerful. Who knows how arrogant he is. He can blow his breath and we will fly away." The fat official said stubbornly: "So what if he is from the Hebo Office? There is no flood in our area. What can he do? "Oh, who can say for sure? Didn't someone come to check the river bank two months ago? Maybe they found some problems for you. Wouldn't that be a problem?" "Don't you say that Liangshui Envoy is the descendant of Prince Chi? He does so many good things in a day. How can he embarrass us, the little guards?" "Are you good-tempered if you are capable? In my opinion, the more capable you are, the worse your temper is. They all insist on their own principles!" Fat official Jiang Mi. "Yu, when can I become an official? Not much, the ninth rank will do, I can live out my life as a master, plant more than ten acres of paddy fields, marry a virtuous wife, take a beautiful concubine, and have a few sons and daughters..."
The thin official laughed: "Forget it, a fat man like you can become an official, most likely because the county has important matters and urgently needs to borrow a head."
The fat official was not angry at being ridiculed.
The two have been together for many years and have long been accustomed to sarcasm. They drank tea and waited silently. The tea doctor suddenly put on a towel and came close to pour tea.】"Two gentlemen, there is a Fuchuan on the river. I haven't seen it at the pier before. It's quite unfamiliar. You two are sharp-eyed. Look carefully to see if it is the person you are waiting for?"
The fat and thin officials raised their heads when they heard the news and saw the Shuilang flag at a glance. They were overjoyed.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"It's coming, go and tell the county magistrate, go and tell the county magistrate!"
The Fuchuan docked and the anchor sank.
"Welcome to the sky with a smile, I am glad to see you again. I have heard for a long time that Lord Liang is a great man with treasures and treasures. Today, I see that hearing about him is not as good as meeting him in person, which is worse than hearing about him!"
"Lord Liu is so polite. If it weren't for Lord Liu's invitation, how could I have stolen a few days of leisure for work?"
The Huazhu Pier was mostly empty, and the people coming and going stood aside.
The new county magistrate of Huazhu County, Liu Wennian, stepped out of the sedan chair and laughed as a donation. The previous county magistrate of Huazhu County was Yu Dayi. After the flood disaster relief, Yu Zhixian, who neglected his duties, was naturally dismissed. What was his situation? Liang Qu had never closed Wang, and he was either teased or exempted from a few words of greeting.
The dragon people got off the boat, and at the back of the procession, Long Pinghe looked at the half-dead bandits.
Liu Wennian looked surprised and pointed at the bandits: "This... in the hands of the warriors... We encountered a bandit ambush on the Black Water River. We caught a leader and borrowed the prison of the government office to lock him up for a few days."
Liu Wennian was ashamed: "Liu's poor management allowed the bandits to attack you."
"Last year, the dam collapsed, and Huazhu County was seriously injured. The people were displaced and had not recovered. It was inevitable that some bad things would happen in such a mess."
Liang Qu was not here to hold him accountable. If there was no flood, the sixth-rank Hengshui envoy could not overwhelm the local county magistrate, so there was no need to embarrass him. Both sides of the Black Water River were covered with mountains and forests. In addition, the value of water transportation was quite high, and the bandit problem was difficult to eliminate.
Hearing the meaning, Liu Wennian felt relieved, stepped aside, and personally led Liang Qu and his party to the inner city.
Lord Liang has come a long way, I have sent someone to prepare a banquet..."
The groom handed over the reins, sat down and whipped.
The wooden wheel rolled over the stone slabs and drove away one by one.
The porters at the dock saw the dragon girl gather her skirts, lower the curtains, and wipe the sweat off her neck, feeling disappointed.
Such a beautiful woman, I didn't look at her face for a few more times, and smell her fragrance a few more times, which is really a regret in this life, "Huo."
The old phlegm fell to the ground.
"Damn, this is called living like a human! Young and promising, with a beauty as a companion, and the county magistrate welcoming us, we all live like dogs!"
"I am willing to die of exhaustion if I can marry such a woman! "
Tired to death? How tired to death?"
The man asked, "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Open your eyes and don't let your greed blind you. Are the wives of Lord Liang something you can look at? Didn't Lord Liang do you any favors when he treated the disaster last year? Be careful of being dug up!"
The fat and thin officials who were stranded at the port waved their whips to scare people, and the whole port gradually returned to normal.
There are many strong men working at the dock.
It's just a matter of eating and drinking.
Too lazy to care, the fat and thin second official straightened his clothes and walked to the side of the Fuchuan, wanting to use the government's money to treat the boatman to come down for a drink.
Unexpectedly, after shouting several times, there was no one, only a black-haired head.
The second official was startled, subconsciously tightened his whip, and found that it was a river otter.
River otter?
Otter Kai clung to the railing, poked his head out to look around, neighed twice, and swaggered down from the boat with his otter. He weighed the heavy yellow leather bag on his waist, ready to exchange for some food.
The fat and thin officials had never seen such a scene before, staring at each other.
A pet raised by Liang Shuishi?
There was no boatman on the boat?
Hesitated.
Otter Kai had brought the otter to the foot shop. As soon as he appeared, there was a commotion, and the bench fell to the ground. "Jiang Lang! It's Jiang Lang!"
"Run! Run!"
"It's so big, it's a spirit!"
Crackling.
The diners put down their chopsticks and fled.
In a blink of an eye, all the customers in the foot shop ran away. The old man in the shop was the only one who could run away, but the monk could not run away from the temple. He raised the lid of the pot and fought with the vegetables.
Otter scratched his head and curled his lips in disdain.
Uninformed country folk.
He opened the bag and took out two pieces of broken silver. He pointed at a table of food, ordered a few, folded his arms and waited.
The old man in the store accidentally dropped the pot.
The winding path leads to a secluded place, and the cicadas are constantly chirping.
The monk in yellow stepped on the stone steps, walked through the shade of the trees, and led the people in Liangqu up the mountain. He then introduced the hill, the tower, and the river god festival to be held the day after tomorrow. Liu Wennian arranged accommodation during the period according to his own needs. It is located in the back hill of Linggu Temple, a large temple in Huazhu County.
The lush green shade screen cools down the fire.
Long Yao and Long Li looked around.
They were quite curious when they came back to the temple for the first time. They tugged on Liang Qu's clothes and asked in a low voice.
"Sir, why did Magistrate Liu arrange for us to live in a temple?"
Liang Guanquan: "Most temples double as hotels. For some incense money, both men and women can stay or even stay for a long time. The monthly rent is the same as renting a house. You can stay as long as you like.
Many scholars who are studying for exams like the quietness of the temple and it is convenient for review, and they often stay there for two or three years until they pass the exam.
Ordinary officials passing by also like to stay in temples, because the conditions of temples are often better than those of inns, and they are safer than the mixed hotels. Therefore, many high officials and great poets often have several monk friends around them. "
"Where's dinner?"
"We should arrange for the restaurant staff to go up the mountain every day to deliver food boxes. They won't all be vegetarians. Magistrate Liu should have arrangements." Liang Qu guessed.
"Master Liang, does he know that there is a wonderful scene in Linggu Temple every midsummer?" the young monk who led the way asked.
Liang Qu thought for a while: "Liuguang Sea?"
Your Excellency is well-informed. "The young monk put his hands together.
Long Yao asked: "Sir, what is the Flowing Light Sea?
Every midsummer, as long as it doesn't rain and the humidity is not heavy, a large number of fireflies will appear in the valley of Linggu Temple in Huazhu County, forming a spectacle like a fluorescent green sea, so it is called the Sea of Streaming Light, which is quite famous. "Liang Channel!"
The reason he knew was because Xiang Fangsu and the others visited the famous scenic spots in several counties around Pingyang Prefecture last year, including the Eighteen Waterfalls in Jiangling County, the Liuguang Sea in Huazhu County, and the Blue Lake in Haiyan County... all of them A few people ran around, especially Liu Guang Hai, who was very excited when she came back. The impression was deep and Long Nu's eyes were bright, and she was looking forward to staying overnight.
The young monk said: "After sunset in the evening, the best place to enjoy the night light is on the small bridge in front of Zhigong Hall and the grass deeper in it. These are the first places where the night light gathers. The Baogong Pagoda on the back of Zhigong Hall is also It's good, there will be a little less tourists.
However, in the past two days, Magistrate Liu hosted distinguished guests and specially sent people to clear out the back mountain. It doesn't matter if there are many people or few people!
If Mr. Liang wants to see it at night, it is best to walk it before dawn to familiarize yourself with the path, so as not to "scare away" the night clearer who cannot figure out the direction in the dark. "
Liu Wennian arranged it well. Being in the sixth grade is nothing in Pingyang Mansion. Grab a handful.
It was a big deal to put it in the county town. It was almost the number one, bigger than the county magistrate. So I had to pay attention to it. The young monk said: "After Luogan falls in the evening, the best place to enjoy the clear night light is in Zhigong Hall."
The small bridge in front of the hall and the grass deeper inside are the first places where Zhao Yeqing gathered. The Baogong Pagoda on the back of Zhigong Hall is also good, with slightly fewer tourists.
However, in the past two days, Magistrate Liu had hosted distinguished guests and specially sent people to clear out the back mountain. It didn't matter whether there were many people or few.
If Mr. Liang wants to see it at night, it is best to walk it before dawn to familiarize yourself with the path, so as not to be unsure of the direction in the dark at night, and even "scare away" the clear night light. "
Liu Wennian arranged it well. In Pingyang Mansion, starting from the sixth grade is nothing, just grab a lot.
It's a big deal to be placed in the county town. He is almost the number one, bigger than the county magistrate, so he has to pay attention to the entire mountain for others to enjoy.
Liang Qu really felt a bit like a powerful person!
That’s it.
The bad atmosphere of society has been blown in unknowingly, making you fall into the big dye vat.
corruption!
"Master Liang, your residence has arrived."
The leading monk stopped and pointed to three row houses and a small courtyard. The dragon girl received the big and small bags and happily moved in.
