Chapter 277 Temporary Residential Station
Surrounded by the officials, Fu Zhixing and Yan Huo got on the first carriage, the four maids of the ear grass, Mai Bird, Xiaocao and the Shepherd, took the second carriage, and their luggage and their belongings were piled on the third and fourth carriages. Four strapped bandits got on the fifth carriage, and Han Fei took two guards to guard it himself.
An hour later, the carriage arrived at the post station. Yan Huo got off the carriage and could see that the post station was temporarily repaired, with red lanterns and colorful flags hanging outside. The prefect stepped forward and said, "Because of a hurry, I'll ask the Lord and the county magistrate to forgive me if there is something wrong."
"It's okay." Fu Zhixing took Yan Huo to the inn.
Yan Huo was a little surprised. She thought that the prefect would take them to his private residence, but she didn't expect to settle them in the inn and not tell her that the prefect has no private residence. The prefect Lu was quite honest and could afford a private residence. This prefect was fat and had no private residence. Who would believe it if he said it?
Moreover, the Fat Priest was not a clean person at first sight, so he did not invite them to live in a private house, which was definitely not following the law, but for other reasons.
After more than ten steps, Yan Huo thought briefly and said nothing. After entering the inn, he led his maid to the backyard to settle down. Fu Zhixing listened to these officials reporting on government affairs in the front hall. The fat prefect said that the fat magistrate praised his small achievements and praised him as much as he boasted. While boasting, he also looked at Fu Zhixing's face carefully, hoping to get the praise of the imperial envoy. Unexpectedly, Fu Zhixing looked indifferent, as if he hadn't heard it.
But Fu Zhixing didn't stop, so he could only continue to speak with his teeth. The more he spoke, the more guilty he felt. In the end, he closed his mouth awkwardly and lowered his head to wait for the scolding.
After a long quiet time, Fu Zhixing glanced at the officials and said lightly: "The four water bandits are imprisoned first. Let's talk about it in a few days. You can retreat."
In one sentence, they were sent away.
The officials retreated uneasyly and stood outside the station, not knowing where to go. So their eyes fell on the fat prefect, "Sir." He has the largest official rank here.
The fat prefect touched his three-story fat chin, "Let's go to the teahouse to sit and discuss how to entertain the imperial envoy next."
The group went to the teahouse to sit down. The fat magistrate drank three cups of tea before saying, "Tell me what you want."
"You can give some beauties to the adults." The heroes were sad that they were in the beauty.
"You can also send antiques." Literature loves elegance.
He gave Fu Zhixing something to please him. At this time, a small official said, "Sir, I heard that the imperial envoy had stayed in Xucheng for five days. The Lu magistrate invited the imperial envoy to move into his private residence."
The fat magistrate was stunned for a moment, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" No wonder the imperial envoy was unhappy.
The little official looked aggrieved. He didn't remember it before. Besides... the little official shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice: "Sir, you didn't ask earlier."
"Officials will be allowed to go to the office station when they go out to Beijing to work, and they will be allowed to stay in the office station. This is the rule. How dare the imperial envoy not stay in the office station and live in the private residence of the local officials? We should report to Your Majesty." This is what an official with a slightly stiff mind and ignorant of adaptability said.
The fat magistrate glanced at him. No wonder he had been a magistrate for more than ten or twenty years. The fat magistrate ignored him and asked the little official, "Is your news accurate?"
"Minister's brother-in-law works in Xucheng. It is said that because of the Lord Rongfu County, the station is simple and the Lord Rongfu County is uncomfortable living." The young official replied. Yan Huo took the blame for his inexplicably without knowing it.
"Sir, I heard that although the imperial envoy is the prince of the country, he only has the wife of the Lord Rongfu County Lord. There are no concubines in the mansion, and the imperial envoy never goes to places like the Gouluyuan." Another small official interrupted, "The brother of the Beizhi works in the capital." Although he is only a seventh-rank official, he is also a Beijing official. He moved out his brother to make the prefect believe that what he said is true.
The fat prefect touched his fat chin and said, "Let the restaurant send a table of good wine and food to the inn." The imperial envoy had already moved into the inn, and wanted him to move out, so he had to think of another way.
In the inn, Yan Hu finished bathing, and Fu Zhixing was wiping her hair with a handkerchief. Yan Hu inserted a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and fed it to Fu Zhixing, "Will we go out for lunch later?"
"They should ask the restaurant to deliver the wine and food." Fu Zhixing smiled faintly.
"Where will we go to play in the afternoon?" Yan Hu asked.
"Get a good rest this afternoon and take you to climb a mountain and soak in the hot spring tomorrow." Fu Zhixing still remembered that before leaving, Yan Hu wanted to soak in the hot spring.
"Okay." Yan Huo smiled happily.
Ercao walked in, "Crown Prince, young lady, someone sent a table of wine and food outside."
"Place it in the front hall." Fu Zhixing put down his handkerchief.
Yan Hu's hair was half dry, so he simply tied it up with an orchid-headed jade hairpin. When the couple went out for lunch, the fat prefect was quite willing to give it a meal, and four soups. Fu Zhixing and Yan Hu would definitely not finish it, but there was a difference between superiors and inferiors. Even if the two didn't care, Han Fei and others would not dare to eat at the same table with them.
"Come on, drink a bowl of chicken soup." Fu Zhixing scooped up the bowl of chicken soup and put it in front of Yan Hu. As for the fish soup, Yan Hu wanted to vomit when he smelled the smell.
"This crispy duck is good, you can try it." Yan Huo picked up a piece of duck meat for Fu Zhixing.
The couple had lunch sweetly, but only had four dishes and four soups. They only had four dishes and one soup. Although Han Fei and others would not dislike them, they did not want others to saliva.
After lunch, he took a walk near the inn to digest food, and then went back to the house to rest and woke up. Yan Huo was about to pull Fu Zhixing to play Goji and spend time. Ercao came in to report, "Mrs. Young lady, the prefect's wife, ask for a meeting."
Fu Zhixing curled the corners of his lips, "This prefect is interesting. He will send his wife to the door so soon."
"Do I want to see her?" Yan Huo was afraid that he would ruin Fu Zhixing's affairs.
"You can see it." Fu Zhixing smiled faintly.
Then Yanhuo changed his clothes and went out to see the guests. The magistrate's wife and the fat magistrate looked very well-like and were also round. When he saw Yanhuo, he greeted him enthusiastically and said, "Please pay tribute to his wife, and his wife will be blessed."
"Mrs. Yang doesn't have to be too polite." Yan Huo politely said.
The guest of the host sat down, and the maid served tea. Mrs. Yang first-class, "This is Longjing before the rain, it is such a good tea."
"I brought it from Beijing. If Mrs. Yang likes it, I can give it to Mrs. Yang." Yan Hu said generously.
"Thank you, madam, then I'm not polite." Mrs. Yang said withdrew. Not seeing each other is also a way to get closer.
After a few gossips, Yan Huo learned that Mrs. Yang was a local and smiled and said, "I first came to Jiangnan, and I am not familiar with the customs and customs of Jingzhou at all."
Mrs. Yang immediately talked about the various scenery in Jingzhou, "If my wife likes it, I can accompany her to see it around."
"If necessary, you will definitely trouble Mrs. Yang." Yan Huo did not completely refuse.
Mrs. Yang thought she was asking Fu Zhixing what she meant, but she didn't insist, "It's my honor to be able to serve my wife."
