Chapter 40 Are you Xiao He?

Sishui County, Pei County.

The county magistrate, Wang Yannian, dressed in official attire and with all his men, has been waiting outside the government office for a long time.

A quarter of an hour ago, the guards came to report that the commander of the guards, General Hei, led the guards to look for him by name.

In panic, Wang Yannian recalled the past in detail in his mind and found that he had not made any mistakes since he was in office.

Upon further questioning, the guards did not know their purpose.

After calming down, I hurriedly changed into my official uniform and hurriedly came here to wait.

Standing outside the door, Wang Yannian was still a little distracted. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

"Sir, here we come."

The person behind him gently tugged on the sleeves of his robe.

Looking around, a group of people appeared at the corner at the end of the road.

After a cursory glance, everyone on the horse was wearing armor, looking serious, and walking in a hurry.

Wang Yannian did not dare to look any further, and hurriedly bowed and said loudly.

"Wang Yannian, the magistrate of Peixian County, is here to greet the general!"

‘Xu~’

After reining in the horse, the black bull turned over and walked in front of Wang Yannian.

Looking at his slightly trembling body, he smiled honestly.

"There is no need to panic, county magistrate. This time I came here to look for someone on the orders of Yang Zi's consort."

Hearing this, the rabbit on Wang Yannian's chest finally calmed down.

It’s okay, okay, I’m just looking for someone.

It seems that my head can't fall off for the time being.

Then I thought about it, who are those Imperial Guards? They are people who are deeply trusted by His Majesty and can protect His Majesty's safety.

With my own identity, let alone friendship, I can't even meet him.

Now that a great opportunity is around the corner, when will it be better?

He raised his hand sideways and hurriedly guided the black cow inside.

"Shangguan has been on a journey, so let me go in with my brothers to rest for a while. The younger one has ordered someone to prepare food, which will be ready in a moment. As for looking for the person, the younger one will order someone to look for him..."

Black Bull waved his hand.

"There's no rush. The matter is urgent. It's better to find someone first. I wonder if there is a chief official named Xiao He in the Peixian County Yamen?"

Wang Yannian turned around and looked at the young man following him with a strange expression.

I kept thinking in my mind, could it be that they came here because they wanted Xiao He's head?

How could a small official offend his consort?

I heard that Yang Zi’s consort was just a farmer before. Could it be an old grudge?

Pity……

Since Xiao He became the chief official, it has been much easier for him as a county magistrate!

The prince-in-law wants someone, even if he is reluctant to give it up, he must hand it over.

"Yes, this is Xiao He, the chief official in the yamen."

Hei Niu turned his eyes and looked at the person beside the county magistrate.

Dressed like a scholar, with a stern face, even though he knew it was his consort who was looking for him, he didn't show any panic at all.

But as soon as I arrived, I met the real owner, so don’t be mistaken.

"Are you Xiao He?"

"Yes, I am none other than the chief official of Peixian County, Xiao He!"

"I wonder if there is anyone with the same name as you in Pei County?"

"Never!"

Hearing this, Heiniu was completely relieved, took out a scroll of brocade silk from his arms, and explained his intention.

"Xiao He, we have been ordered by the Prince Consort of Yang to take you to Xianyang to take up your post. This is the handwritten letter of the Prince Consort, please read it."

After saying that, he handed the brocade silk in his hand to Xiao He.

"Brother Xiao, the prince-in-law treats you very highly. Not only did he order us to pick him up in person, but he also specifically asked not to offend you..."

Hei Niu's original intention in saying this was to show Liu Bai's respect for him.

In this way, the possibility of completing the task is greatly increased.

Unexpectedly, Xiao He was stunned after hearing this, and even forgot to take the brocade silk he handed over.

Ever since I heard that the person the Imperial Guard was looking for was him, even though he didn't show it on his face, he was already a little panicked in his heart.

Now that I heard the reason why they were looking for me, I was filled with disbelief.

He knew about Yang Zi's consort, but after thinking about it, there seemed to be no intersection between the two!

Not to mention the identity of the Prince Consort, even when he was a farmer, he had never been seen before.

I was far away in Peixian County and was just a minor official. How could I be known by the Prince Consort and order someone to pick him up?

When he was dumbfounded, Wang Yannian on the side was also dumbfounded.

I thought I was here to criticize him, but I didn't expect it to be such a good thing!

This kid Xiao He can do it. When did he get such a powerful relationship, I didn’t even know!

When he came back to his senses, he saw that this brat was still in a daze, so he reached out and poked his arm.

"Xiao He, why don't you catch General Hei's brocade silk quickly?"

Xiao He, who came back to his senses, was even more afraid to accept it.

If you get this wrong, you will lose your head.

"General, general, are you mistaken? My name is Xiao He, but I have never met my consort, so why did you invite me to Xianyang?"

The trembling voice showed his inner uneasiness.

Logically speaking, this soaring opportunity should not be let go so easily.

But he didn’t dare!

I couldn't believe it, and I didn't dare to agree.

What should I do if I make a mistake?

Hei Niu took advantage of his advantage, smiled honestly, and patted Xiao He on the shoulder.

"Brother Xiao, you don't have to be like this. If you are indeed the only one named Xiao He in the entire Peixian County, then you can't be wrong."

As for the fact that he didn't dare to accept the brocade silk handed to him, Hei Niu didn't feel offended.

After all, except for Pei County, no one in the Qin Dynasty has ever heard of Xiao He.

A small official was suddenly appointed by the prince-in-law and prepared to be reused.

It is human nature to find it hard to accept for a while.

"How about...you read Yang Zi's handwriting first?"

At his signal, Xiao He finally remembered that he had been holding the brocade silk for a long time.

He reached out and took it, apologizing profusely.

As soon as Xiao He got the brocade and silk recipe, he knew that this was probably true.

There was only a small piece of brocade, but it was made of first-class fabric.

If placed in an ordinary home, it would be enough to feed the whole family for more than a month.

Moreover, how could a prince-in-law find the leisure to lie to a common man like himself who was nothing?

Do you really want to go to Xianyang?

Thinking of this, my breathing became a little faster.

With trembling hands, he opened the brocade silk and looked at the writing on it, his eyes reddening.

'Don't be surprised if you rashly sent someone to invite me without asking what your intentions were in advance!'

'Although I have never met your husband, I know that you are a person with great ambitions. How can you realize your ambitions while living in Xiaoxiaopei County?'

'If you still haven't forgotten your ambition, please come to Xianyang to talk about it. I would like to help you, Mr. Bole...'

Although there are not many words, Xiao He read it several times.

His eyes were slightly red, and he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

He believed that he had the talent to govern the world, but he was helplessly trapped in this small Xiaopei County.

I originally thought that my life would go on like this, but I didn't expect that the prince-in-law, who was far away in the imperial capital, actually took a fancy to him and respected him so much.

At this moment, he didn't care about how Liu Bai knew his name. There was only one sentence lingering in his mind: He who knows his friends will die for his confidant!

In just an instant, Xiao He had made up his mind.

Hei Niu, who had been staring at him, saw his expression change slightly and understood.

"I don't know Brother Xiao..."

Taking a deep breath, Xiao He made a decision that would affect the rest of his life.
