More and more people came. Ji Hong ate the cakes bought by Yu Xiaozhou and asked Yu Xiaozhou to steady the cart while he stood on it.
Yu Xiaozhou didn't see Lin Qingfeng around, and none of the people who came to Hengxiang at that time were seen.
He carefully looked at Ji Hong's outfit and found that the robe, shoes, and trousers didn't look like the same set.
It is very possible that he got this dress and hat from other people.
Stealing things was still so high-profile, Yu Xiaozhou shook his head.
About to notice his gaze, Ji Hong glanced at him and said, "This cart of yours is a good thing."
Seeing that Yu Xiaozhou didn't say anything, Ji Hong said, "I'll take you to make a fortune later. With this cart here, we can make a big fortune."
"Why? You want to grab something?" Yu Xiaozhou said.
After saying that, Yu Xiaozhou was stunned when he saw the master's meaningful smile: "Do you really want to steal something?"
"Why are you making such a loud noise? You're going to die!" Ji Hong cursed in a low voice.
Yu Xiaozhou frowned. Should he grab something with a cart or "wait a moment"...
Yu Xiaozhou looked up at the sun. If someone could rob someone in broad daylight, could it be that a wealthy family was about to have their house ransacked?
There was sudden noise around him, and Yu Xiaozhou looked ahead along with everyone.
He was not tall enough and couldn't see. He wanted to climb onto the cart, but if he let go even a little, the master who was standing in a weird posture might fall off.
"What happened?" Yu Xiaozhou asked.
"The governor of Zhao is here," Ji Hong said.
It turned out to be him.
"Huh?" He heard the master call out and looked to the other side.
The crowd also looked to the right.
Yu Xiaozhou was so anxious that he stood on tiptoes and raised his head.
"It's Captain Qiu," Ji Hong said.
As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of people started to retreat from the front right.
"It's the soldiers clearing the way," Ji Hong said, "Captain Qiu has brought many soldiers and horses over."
Thinking of the recent rumors that Captain Qiu and Governor Zhao were not dealing with each other, Yu Xiaozhou suddenly wondered if they would cause trouble here.
Governor Zhao is still wearing the same official robe as yesterday. Two months ago, the official robe he wore was worn by Governor Huang during his lifetime. Later, he had five sets made again, all using first-class silk and satin.
Some of the best embroiderers in Xiang were also forcibly recruited from Mrs. Qu.
Official uniforms and military armor can best enhance your temperament. In front of the Lianfeng Academy, Governor Zhao and Captain Qiu, who was wearing silver armor, stopped and faced each other.
Governor Zhao grinned: "Isn't the word "literary" about studying the world? Qiu Duwei is a big boss who dances with guns and sticks, why do you want to get involved?"
Captain Qiu looked at him from head to toe and then from head to head with disgust: "Hengxiang officialdom is a big deal. Zhao Governor, you were promoted from a small job. In addition to being able to speak in official style, you can also play with the little things in your hands."
You really have nowhere to cultivate the power, sophistication and steadiness of an official."
"Ouch," Inspector Zhao raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I didn't expect that Captain Qiu looked rough and slovenly, but ended up speaking as mean as a girl. Zhao looked down on him and underestimated him."
"Prince Zhao has such a sinister and mean face. He is just a small businessman who got his start in the market. However, a villain who has become powerful this time should keep his face secretive. Don't forget how Prince Huang died."
At this time, President Yang led the gentlemen of Lianfeng Academy out. Seeing their appearance, President Yang stopped.
Gu Ke
Lieutenant Qiu really looked down on Governor Zhao and felt that he would lose his status even if he said more words. He looked at Old Dean Yang and raised his hand in a weak gesture: "Dean Yang."
"Captain Qiu is polite." Dean Yang also raised his hand.
Governor Zhao glanced at Old Dean Yang and raised his hand slightly: "Old Dean Yang, when will we start?"
"It's almost time," Dean Yang said respectfully, "Pan Jiaoyu will be the official of ceremony today, and he will preside over it."
"Yuan Hengxiang's county school teacher," Governor Zhao looked at Pan Jiaoyu and said with a smile, "Be courteous."
Pan Jiaoyu smiled, raised his hand and saluted: "I've seen Governor Zhao."
"Chief Zhao and Captain Qiu, please come here." Dean Yang led them to the table.
Pan Jiaoyu came out to preside over the situation. The procedure was very simple. After the old dean Yang paid homage to several saints, he then paid homage to the old deans of Lianfeng Academy. Then the two highly respected old gentlemen rang the bells with their own hands.
Disciples from poor families in the academy sang the ancient rhymes of their ancestors.
The atmosphere became solemn, and it was difficult for people standing far away to feel it, but those who were nearby, those who were joking and watching the fun, became serious.
After the heaven-sacrifice ceremony was over, the literati from all over the world and the bachelors who had settled in Wenhe Building all walked along Shunyu Lake towards Quhe Garden.
Ji Hong jumped down from the cart, with the last bite of the cake left in his hand. He finished it reluctantly and sat down on the cart: "I'm rich, let's go!"
The excitement was nothing to see for Ji Hong. His main purpose of coming here was to see when Governor Zhao and Captain Qiu would enter.
The news I just got is that Mrs. Qu, who thought she was lawless in Hengxiang, is someone who wants to deal with her.
When Yu Xiaozhou pushed Ji Hong away, he encountered several figures walking towards him quickly. He passed by them and headed to an inn not far away.
Daheng led three people, and as soon as they came in, he grabbed the shopkeeper who was watching the excitement at the door and went inside, slamming it on the table with a "slap".
The guys came over quickly and kept asking what happened.
"A few days ago, three girls came from Youzhou and checked into your hotel?" Daheng said sternly, "Tell them their whereabouts honestly, or I will chop off your right ear first!"
The shopkeeper hurriedly begged for mercy, and then said: "Where did your noble lord hear this news? Although there are many people in Hengxiang these days, the people who come and go in my store all speak with southern accents. There are no people from the north who have traveled to the state!"
Daheng looked at a companion: "Ledger!"
The companion nodded and walked towards the counter.
The accounting clerk raised his hand tremblingly and handed over the account book.
The companions looked at each one one by one and suddenly said: "Yes! Tu Xiaoxi!"
"I think you're looking for death!" Daheng scolded angrily and drew out his sharp blade.
"No, no, I don't know! My dear, I really don't know!" The shopkeeper shivered.
"I'll give you a stick of incense and ask clearly." Daheng let go of the shopkeeper.
As soon as the shopkeeper was free, he immediately summoned everyone in the store.
Before I could ask three people, someone else came in from outside, just like Da Heng came in just now, with murderous intent.
The shopkeeper recognized these people at a glance as Mrs. Qu's people. He secretly sighed that it was bad luck and stepped forward to greet them.
"No need to be so polite," Mrs. Qu's man said in a cold voice, "I'll see if you can still laugh later!"
He raised his hand and waved back, and a petite woman followed beside several men.
She is said to be a woman, but she is actually a girl. She is not very good-looking, but her eyes are particularly aura.
