While Hu Xiaotian was thinking here, six knights rode towards this side. Hu Xiaotian raised his eyes and found that they were all Black Miao people. One of them was Teng Zidan from Heishizhai. He came to Hongyan Tower.
She turned over and dismounted, and greeted with a smile: "Master Hu, is there a charity sale dinner here?"
Hu Xiaotian was surprised and happy. At this moment, he didn't care about the power of the guests. He was already looking forward to having someone come to compliment him. He hurriedly greeted her happily: "Miss Teng is here, haha, hurry up and invite me inside!"
Next to Teng Zidan was a middle-aged black Miao man. He was tall and powerful, with a purple face and a mustache. Although he stood there without saying a word, he clearly had a strong leadership aura.
I knew he was the leader of this group of people.
Teng Zidan introduced Hu Xiaotian: "My dad!"
The middle-aged man hugged his fists, Hu Xiaotian smiled and said hello, and led the group into Hongyan Building. Hu Xiaotian did not know this middle-aged man, but after the middle-aged man entered the lobby, Guo Shouguang stood up hurriedly after seeing him.
, it turns out that this middle-aged man is Teng Tianqi, the owner of Heishizhai. He has a very high prestige in the hearts of the local Black Miao people. Even the county magistrate Xu Qinglian must be polite to him when he sees this man.
Guo Shouguang really couldn't figure it out. When did Hu Xiaotian get involved with the people in Heishizhai? Teng Tianqi had an old-fashioned temperament and rarely had contact with officials in Qingyun. In Guo Shouguang's memory, he couldn't think of any time when he had participated in the meeting here.
At a public event today, he actually took the initiative to bring his daughter to support Hu Xiaotian. This relationship is obviously extraordinary. Guo Shouguang took the initiative to say hello to Teng Tianqi, but Teng Tianqi just nodded slightly, with an arrogant attitude, and did not put Qingyun in charge at all.
In the eyes.
When Hu Xiaotian arranged for Teng Zidan to sit down, she quietly asked Hu Xiaotian: "Where is your elder brother?"
Hu Xiaotian was slightly startled. Then he realized that she was asking about Murong Feiyan, and replied with a smile: "He has gone out to do errands, and he may not be able to come back tonight." It seemed that Teng Zidan came here for Murong Feiyan.
Teng Zidan heard that Hu Dadi would not show up, and her pretty face inevitably showed disappointment. Seeing her expression, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart. The look in Teng Zidan's eyes was really not good. Until now, even Murong Feiyan's male and female
They didn't even know it. But with Murong Feiyan's temperament, he probably wouldn't contact Teng Zidan, let alone extend an invitation, but I don't know why these black Miao people came to support him.
The distinguished guests from Blackstone Village were welcomed into Hongyan Tower, and another guest arrived over there. This time it was Xiao Tianmu, the owner of Hongliu Village, and there were six or seven brothers who came with him. Hu Xiaotian was already smiling.
, at least it is not as deserted as it was at the beginning, and I can finally explain it on face. When accompanying Xiao Tianmu to go inside, Xiao Tianmu whispered: "Master Hu, I have already arranged the things you asked.
"
Hu Xiaotian made a pun: "Originally I wanted to make the tiger leave the mountain, but now it doesn't look so smooth."
Xiao Tianmu lowered his voice and said: "My eldest brother personally leads the people, there shouldn't be any mistakes."
Hu Xiaotian then remembered that Zhou Batian had been bailed out today, and that the gang of brothers he led were going to stage a big show of robbing the rich and giving to the poor in Qingyun County tonight. He was excited just thinking about it.
Arrangements were made for Xiao Tianmu and his group to sit down. Suddenly someone outside heard a loud voice: "Master Shi Zhang, the Governor of the West, is here!"
The first reaction of Guo Shouguang after hearing this was that he heard wrongly. Zhang Ziqian, the governor of Xizhou, was the first counselor under Yin Li Tianheng of Xizhou. This man was rich in knowledge and wisdom. He was a famous scholar in the country and usually lived in Xizhou. , providing advice and suggestions for Li Tianheng. It can be said that Li Tianheng has managed Xichuan with great success in recent years, and this person deserves the most credit.
Hu Xiaotian also looked confused. Western Governor Shi Na was an official from the fifth rank. He and Zhang Ziqian were strangers, but he didn't know what he was doing here? He already knew from the couplet that Li Tianheng gave to his father. His whereabouts had long been exposed, and Li Tianheng knew his identity early on and paid attention to his movements. It seems that the arrival of this Western Governor was most likely entrusted by Li Tianheng.
Hu Xiaotian went out with full of confusion. When he came outside and took a look, he immediately understood that Zhang Ziqian was actually the old fisherman who ferried him across the river when he came to Qingyun on the first day.
It's just that today Zhang Ziqian is no longer dressed as a fisherman. He is wearing a gray robe with two guards behind him. He is standing outside the door with a smile. He looks at Hu Xiaotian with a smile and says: "Master Hu, it's been a long time!"
As soon as Hu Xiaotian bowed to the ground, the salute was a bit exaggerated, a bit like a student meeting his teacher. Although Zhang Ziqian was much senior than him, he really couldn't bear this gift. He stepped forward and grabbed Hu Xiaotian's wrist and said with a smile: " Mr. Hu, please don’t be so polite, you’re really killing me.”
Hu Xiaotian said: "Master Zhang, you have deceived me terribly!"
Zhang Ziqian chuckled and said: "I originally wanted to tell you frankly, but then I thought about it. You didn't tell me that you came to Qingyun to be the county magistrate. If I told the truth, wouldn't I suffer a big loss?"
Hu Xiaotian thought in his heart that this old man was quite interesting, but he couldn't feel relaxed anymore. He remembered that when he left the capital, his father had repeatedly warned him that he must conceal his identity. Judging from the current situation, he has never been here. After Qingyun, he was already under the surveillance of his future father-in-law. His chief adviser Zhang Ziqian also deliberately dressed up as an old fisherman to test his talents. If he had known this, he should have behaved like a fool, ignorant of every question, and let Li Tianheng test himself. I was so disappointed that I gave up all thoughts of having him as my son-in-law. In these days, it is not only virtue for women to be without talent, but also for men.
Hu Xiaotian invited Zhang Ziqian to enter the Hongyan Tower. Because Zhang Ziqian was his superior official and a popular person in front of Li Tianheng, Hu Xiaotian had to accompany him. He left the welcoming matter to Song Shaofu and sat down with Zhang Ziqian. .
Chief Secretary Guo Shouguang didn't believe it at first, but when he saw Zhang Ziqian's appearance, he found out that it was really the Governor of the West who had come here. He was shocked beyond measure. Although Zhang Ziqian was only a fifth-rank official, he was extremely trustworthy in front of Li Tianheng. , is an out-and-out powerful figure in Xichuan. Zhang Ziqian’s ancestral home is Qingyun, and he comes and goes in a hurry every time he comes to visit relatives. After his elder sister passed away five years ago, he has no relatives in his hometown, and he has not heard of it in the past five years. There was news about his return to his hometown. I wonder why it suddenly appeared today?
Guo Shouguang actually already knew the answer. Zhang Ziqian didn't happen to come over for dinner this time, and it wasn't for him, but for Hu Xiaotian. He was here to support Hu Xiaotian. Guo Shouguang started to beat his heart, Hu Xiaotian really had a backing, even Li Tianheng The celebrities in front of them are all able to establish connections. It seems that the information they have is very imperfect. I am afraid that this Hu Xiaotian is not just the son of a salt merchant.
Guo Shouguang quietly whispered a few words to his entourage, then stood up and walked towards Zhang Ziqian with a smile on his face. He also bowed to the ground. Although he was older, his kowtow skills were more powerful than Hu Xiaotian's, and his movements were also clean and quick: "Guo Shouguang, a humble official, sees Zhang Ziqian.
grown ups!"
Zhang Ziqian acted modestly and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, this is not a yamen, and you are not my subordinate. Outside the court, please don't stick to etiquette." He turned to Hu Xiaotian and said: "Brother Hu, I'm right.
wrong?"
The words "Brother Hu" obviously shortened the distance between him and Hu Xiaotian infinitely. Guo Shouguang on the side heard it so clearly that he even sweated on his forehead. He actually called Hu Xiaotian "Brother" because of Zhang Ziqian's status and status. The relationship between the two is indeed extraordinary.
Zhang Ziqian's appearance was purely accidental, and Hu Xiaotian also felt proud. It seems that tonight is full of surprises. Is it possible that the future father-in-law will make his relationship with him public today? If so, I'm afraid that tomorrow all the officials in Qingyun County will
He crossed his own threshold.
I hadn’t exchanged a few words with Zhang Ziqian when another distinguished guest arrived outside. I heard someone shout loudly: “His Royal Highness the King of Zhou is here!”
Everyone was stunned. Hu Xiaotian blinked and said, "Are you sure you are not playing tricks on me? Isn't King Zhou the seventeenth prince Long Yefang? I am a stranger to him. What is he doing in this small county of Qingyun? Isn't he the seventeenth prince Long Yefang?"
You want to cheer me up? You said, you don’t have this kind of friendship? You’re not here to cause trouble, are you?
Everyone in the lobby was stunned. You looked at me and I looked at you. Basically, they all thought that someone was playing a prank. However, when I thought about it, it seemed a bit strange. Maybe I was joking about something like this.
Those who were put in jail and beheaded.
King Long Yefang of Zhou is twenty-three years old this year. The current emperor Long Xuanen deposed his eldest son Long Yelin as crown prince three years ago and passed it on to his third son Long Yeqing. It was at that time that the old emperor made an extremely important decision.
It was an important decision to take back all the princes' fiefdoms. The King of Zhou was only twenty at the time and had just reached the age of weak crowns. He gave Xi Min as a fiefdom. However, this order was only issued for three days, and an imperial edict was issued to remove the princes.
All his fiefs were taken back, and the King of Zhou didn't even have time to visit his own fiefs, and he became a prince with only a title.
Among the many princes, Zhou Wang Long Yefang belongs to the one who has nothing to do with the world. There are sixteen royal brothers in front of him in order. From childhood to adulthood, he has not shown any extraordinary abilities. The throne of the crown prince is not his turn.
, he has no intention of fighting for power and profit. No matter how lively the fight among the brothers is, he rationally remains neutral. In fact, there are still a few people among the princes who think like him. Just protect yourself and enjoy life.
However, Concubine Li Guifei, the mother of King Long Yefang of Zhou Dynasty, was favored by the emperor, and she loved her house very much. The old emperor also loved this seventeenth son very much. Therefore, rumors spread in the court that the emperor wanted to make Long Yefang the crown prince. Both King Zhou mother and son knew this.
Such rumors were of no benefit to him, so he decided to stay away from the palace disputes and traveled to Dakang in the name of praying for the emperor. In fact, the real purpose was to avoid the palace disputes.
There are still 50 monthly votes to reach 10,000, so keep asking for votes. I believe that monthly votes are like milk, you will get them if you squeeze them! (To be continued...)
