Chapter 155 Visit
"It's okay for the Ming court to go." Seeing that Liu Jing's attitude was very persistent, Gong Ying sighed: "I'm not hiding it from the Ming court, the subordinate officials are always incompatible with Chu Ziping. If they follow the Ming court to his house, it may cause Chu Ziping to be unhappy."
Liu Jing thought to himself that after hearing what Gong Ying said before, he knew that they were definitely not the same person, and now he has confirmed this speculation.
As the saying goes, "A mountain cannot accommodate two tigers." Heroes have always been beautiful talk, and it is the norm to dislike each other.
As the leading figures in Ling County, Chu Fang and Gong Ying have a completely different background and experience. It is not surprising that there are conflicts between the two sides.
"So that's it." Liu Jing nodded. "Since ancient times, most heroes have been arrogant and arrogant. Some of them have those who appreciate each other and those who denounce each other. Since Gongcao and Chu Ziping have conflicts, I won't force anyone to do anything."
"Thank you, Ming court." Gong Ying bowed deeply and said, "Chu Ziping's family is in the west of the city. Everyone in the county is aware of this matter. If the Ming court wants to go to his house, he can directly explain to the officials under his subordinates."
Liu Jing nodded, then walked out of the hall and called the officials under his sect. When he asked, he was as Gong Ying said, everyone knew Chu Fang’s residence, and when it came to Chu Fang, he respected him very much.
Liu Jing felt very moved. He believed that he had attached enough importance to Chu Fang, but he still underestimated his influence among the scholars and people of Huang County.
During the three years when Chu Fang was mourning for his mother, he never left the cemetery, but his influence was not weakened even in the slightest because of his "disappearance" for three years.
Liu Jing boarded the carriage, and accompanied him were Liu Liang, Yu Zheng, Ma Zhou and a group of cavalrymen.
Liu Jing originally intended to bring Yan Su, but Yan Su had already recruited warehouse managers and prison officials to formally take over the work of the county magistrate. He was very busy and had no time to go out with him.
Because the situation in Huang County was complicated, Liu Jing had already made plans in his mind before coming, and he was going to ask the county affairs seriously. In simple terms, he was to let him be the contemporary county magistrate.
Serious people are as their name, serious, diligent in official business, and not favoritism. Such a person who "does not enter the world" can quickly open up even if the thorns are covered in front of him.
This is exactly what Liu Jing values. By pushing him to the front, he can hide behind the scenes and be in a position where he can attack and retreat and defend, so that he can be invincible innate.
Liu Zhu and Wang Qiong, a single day of work, had other important things to do. They did not even follow Liu Jing into the city, and all stayed in Leishuijin.
With a crisp sound of horse hooves, Liu Jingche drove out of the county temple gate and headed straight to the west of the city under the attention of countless scholars and citizens of Huang County.
The people of Huang County speculated about the purpose of Liu Jing's trip. They should know that he had just entered the county temple and went out after he was about to go out. What exactly could make the county lord so anxious?
In fact, the result is not difficult to guess. Only Chu Fang, who had just finished his mourning, can the head of a county come to visit him in person regardless of the fatigue of the journey. All the scholars and people in Huang County look proud and proud.
As soon as Liu Jingche entered the inner door, Chu Fang received the news. He was shocked and didn't even think too much. He put down his wine glass and ran out of the house to greet him.
The wheels were rumbling and stopped in front of Chu's house. Liu Jing sat in the car with his back straight, quietly looking at Chu Fang who was waiting on the side.
According to rumors, Chu Fang is very skilled in martial arts and courageous. After joining Sun Jian, he traveled across Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang counties. In his previous battles with rebels such as Qu Xing, Zhou Chao, and Guo Shi, he always won the lead.
In this way, Chu Fang should be a great man who is eight feet long, as strong as a mountain, as if he were a mountain.
However, when he saw him today, it was a little beyond Liu Jing's expectations. He was only seven feet, three or four inches tall, and his appearance was a little normal and not very majestic. He was only strong and far superior to ordinary people.
If it weren't for confirmation from the eyes of others, Liu Jing almost thought that he had recognized the wrong person. However, he would not "judgment people by his appearance". As the saying goes, "there is no vain under his reputation", Chu Fang's prestige today is due to "filial piety and courage", rather than appearance.
While Liu Jing looked at Chu Fang, Chu Fang was also looking at Liu Jing secretly. Although he has been living in the mountains and filial to his mother in recent years, he is so famous that people go up the mountain to visit him every day. Therefore, he is not ignorant of the outside world. If you want to say that the most famous person in Changsha has been in recent years, it is undoubtedly the one in front of you.
Chu Fang did not value Liu Jing's so-called "working and raising tourists" and "quality of books to save neighbors". What he valued was Liu Jing's ability to capture Qu Xiong and recruit Cai Sheng.
There is also the song "The Legend of the Knights". As a Ranger, if you don't know this poem, you will be embarrassed to call yourself a Ranger.
Liu Jing got out of the car, stopped Chu Fang's bowing ceremony in time, and said, "Brother Chu doesn't have to be too polite. What I admire most in my life is a person who is filial to you like Brother Chu.
My brother lost both parents at a young age and raised him under his stepmother's knees. My brother was born with filial piety and had never served his stepmother before. He was known to his hometown for filial piety. Unfortunately, when he went to Xiangyang to study in the north, his brother suddenly fell into a bad disease and died. My brother was not even able to see him for the last time, and he felt deeply regretful." When he said this, Liu Jing's tone inevitably had a hint of sadness.
Chu Fang was aroused by Liu Jing and couldn't help but sigh: "I also have a younger brother who died of swelling and foot disease before he was over the twentieth crown."
"Nine out of ten people who are not satisfied with life, I won't say these." Liu Jing shook his head, pointed his hand at Ma Zhou, who could not hide his excitement around him, and introduced to Chu Fang: "Brother Chu, this is Ma Zhou and Ma Zijin of Leiyang."
Chu Fang clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that Ma Zijin from Leiyang is the foot of his foot."
After hearing this, Ma Zhou was overjoyed and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Brother Chu knows me?"
Chu Fang laughed and said, "Brother Ma is joking. If you are ignorant, how can you not know Brother Ma?"
One of the county and Leiyang is under Changsha County and the other is under Guiyang County. Although it belongs to two counties, the two counties are connected, and Ma Zhou is not an unknown person in Leiyang. It is not surprising that Chu Fang has heard of his name.
However, in the eyes of Chu Fang in the past, Ma Zhou was only stronger than ordinary rangers. With Liu Jing's battle to capture Qu Xiong and his followers, Cai Sheng was not the only one who became famous in Jingnan, and Ma Zhou also became famous, so Chu Fang took it a little bit.
Ma Zhou laughed and said, "With Brother Chu's words, my Ma Zhou's wish is enough."
Liu Jing smiled and shook his head, and introduced Yu Zheng and Liu Liang to Chu Fang.
Yu Zheng was tall, half a head taller than Chu Fang, and stared at Chu Fang with bright eyes.
Yu Zheng has a calm personality, but after all, he is a raider, so he will inevitably feel comparative. He first met Cai Sheng and Ma Zhou, and was in the military camp, so he was able to be at peace. Now when he met Chu Fang, who is famous in Jingnan, he couldn't help but feel ready.
