Xia Yixuan's casual statement made Zhao Bai take it seriously.
He couldn't help but think about it more deeply. The NPCs in this game were not just puppets who acted according to the program. They had their own thoughts and actions.
Just like Pirate Tongtian before, he immediately holds a grudge and will try every means to trick Zhao Bai in the future.
Regarding this person, Zhao Bai is always wary of him!
Because nothing on Zhao Bai's body has a non-stealable mark, which means that as long as it is stolen by Tongtian, everything can be stolen.
Even though he was sitting in this lion-dragon chariot, Zhao Bai was always observing all the people coming and going around him through the Vision Orb and Chaos Yin-Yang Stone to prevent being attacked.
After listening to Xia Yixuan's words, Zhao Bai also began to think about this trip to Xiqiao County while guarding against thieves from Tongtian.
Yugan gave himself such a task, and it didn't matter whether it was completed or not, but the freedom and benefits were waiting for him after he completed it.
This kind of task that seems like there will be no loss, sometimes may actually be the danger in the task.
Because of this, Zhao Bai was particularly concerned about Xia Yixuan's words.
If the county governor, acting governor of the state, and recruiting envoys are all sincerely united, then being sent to the West Frontier County this time is tantamount to entering a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.
While Zhao Bai was thinking a lot, Tongtong was very innocent. She stuck her little head out of the window and looked at the scenery in the West Frontier City happily.
Everywhere he followed Zhao Bai, there was a new scenery, and Tongtong never got tired of seeing it.
"Tell me, if they really have a grudge against me coming to seize power, how do you think I should deal with it?"
Zhao Bai asked Xia Yixuan after thinking for a while.
"If this is really the case, then you have to act according to the circumstances. I have seen this kind of drama of fighting for power too many times. As long as it is not a dead end, there is a solution!"
"That's what I said. Let's take care of it now. Let's stop worrying about it. Just take it one step at a time!" At the moment, we can't prove that the other party is as Xia Yixuan guessed. It's useless to think too much. Let's wait until we find out. , after all, the emperor's life is on his side, and they don't dare to do anything to him.
At least in the West Frontier City, he will definitely be safe and sound!
"By the way, I actually have something to say when I invite you here this time."
"What?" Xia Yixuan asked curiously.
"In addition to the important things I have to do in the West Frontier County this time, I have other tasks to complete. If there are no problems in the handover work, I want you to lead the army to defeat the bandits for me first, and I will take advantage of this time to go Complete another task, and after it is completed, I will come back to deal with the important affairs of Xiqiao County together." Zhao Bai said with a smile.
"Okay, you guy, not only did you come to me to do hard work, you even became a hands-off shopkeeper!" Xia Yixuan immediately laughed and scolded Zhao Bai.
"Isn't this because I don't have enough skills to do all the work!" Zhao Bai said with a grin.
"Who calls you a great god? I can only do as I am told!" Xia Yixuan pretended to act like an old man and said with his arms folded.
"It seems that the benefits of being a great god are quite good. Even Mr. Xia can be driven by me!"
After the two joked for a while, Xia Yixuan just said: "As long as there are no variables on my side, I still have no problem leading the army."
"Well! That's good, I will come back as soon as possible!"
After the two of them had a conversation, the lion-dragon chariot quickly arrived at the governor's house.
"Sir, the Sheriff's Mansion has arrived!" At this time, the voice of the guard from before sounded outside the car.
After Zhao and Bai got out of the car, they saw a magistrate's mansion with a rather spectacular building.
"It doesn't look good!" Xia Yixuan saw the building of the Sheriff's Mansion, turned to look at Zhao Bai, and whispered.
"That's not necessarily true. The main buildings in the southern country are all extraordinary. It's not like he ordered them to build them!" Zhao Bai naturally knew what Xia Yixuan meant. The more luxurious this mansion is, the more likely the governor is.
Selfish, exclusive.
However, this was Xia Yixuan's judgment because he didn't know the situation in Daonan Kingdom. Zhao Bai had more experience and didn't care too much.
"Then let's go in and take a look!" Xia Yixuan smiled and said nonchalantly.
With the guard leading the way, the three of them went straight into the courtyard without any hindrance until a housekeeper arrived.
"Butler, this is Mr. Zhao! This is his friend, and this is his sister!" The guard told the housekeeper based on the information he had previously obtained from Zhao Bai.
The housekeeper nodded to the guard and motioned for him to get down, and then turned to look at Zhao Bai.
After he bowed respectfully to Zhao Bai, he said: "Master Zhao, will only three of you take office this time?"
"Exactly!" Zhao Bai smiled.
"Mr. Zhao traveled all the way from the Imperial City traveling lightly and simply. He must have had a hard time traveling all the way.
As soon as he learned that your Excellency had arrived at the gate of the city, the county governor had already ordered people to prepare a banquet in the courtyard, just waiting for Your Excellency to receive the wind and wash away the dust.
Let me lead the way for you from now on!"
"Excuse me, housekeeper!"
"Hey, don't you dare to take it seriously? Sir, please come with me."
On the way, Zhao Bai pretended to be chatting and said: "I don't know what kind of person the governor is. He will be working with you in the West Frontier County in the future. I want to know more about him!"
"My lord is saying that my lord does not have any special temperament or hobbies, but he is quite conscientious in his duties as an official.
It’s not that I’m boasting. After my lord came to serve as the governor of West Frontier County, except for the old moss caused by rogue bandits, he handled other people’s livelihood issues well, and he is quite popular among the people of West Frontier County!”
Hearing what the housekeeper said, Zhao Bai glanced at Xia Yixuan, wanting to see his evaluation.
Xia Yixuan just showed a noncommittal expression.
Zhao Bai couldn't help but smile slightly and said: "In this case, it is an honor for me to work with the County Sheriff!"
"No, no, our lord has already received detailed information about your affairs. Your lord has been upgraded several times in one day, and all of them are dealing with difficult tasks.
Even the missing ambassador of the Mobei Kingdom's mission was recovered personally, which can be said to be a benefit to both Daonan Kingdom and Mobei Kingdom.
Such achievements are worthy of praise from us adults!
Hearing that Lord Zhao Bai was personally summoned by His Majesty and sent to take up the post with an important task, we, the county governor, respected him even more. We had long wanted to see him. At this time, he, the original acting magistrate, and the acting recruiting envoy were already here.
We are gathering in the courtyard, just waiting for the adults to take their seats!"
"It's just luck that I completed some tasks. The Sheriff thinks too highly of me!"
"My lord, I'm so sorry. Even if it's a fluke, not everyone can have this luck!"
After chatting with the housekeeper for a few more words, Zhao Bai said no more.
Because he found that he couldn't get much out of the housekeeper. This guy was very tight-lipped. Apart from his previous words of praise for the county governor, he didn't reveal any other information about the county governor.
