Next, Li Ling stayed in Zhang Hefeng's mansion for three days, mostly talking to the two Confucian masters about academic and self-cultivation. The two elders also admired this younger generation quite well, so they naturally knew everything, which made him more refined in his writing and his temperament seemed to have improved.

However, Li Ling was in funeral after all and could not stay in Xuzhou for too long. So three days later, he left and left for Jiangcheng County. This time, there was no obstacle along the way. Suddenly, they arrived at Li Ling's hometown. At this time, more than ten years had passed since he left here to take the exam.

Although Li Ling had not yet reached the age of sighing that time was fleeting and saying that things had changed, when he saw the familiar county town, he still felt a lot of emotion. He couldn't help but stop. After careful examination, he rode his horse and ran away again, until at this moment, he seemed a little narrow and narrow gate.

Everything in Jiangcheng County seems to have not changed much. The city walls are still low and the city gates are still dilapidated. Even the veterans who rely on the city gates to guard the city still look as lazy as many years ago. The pedestrians and shops on the long street leading directly to the city are still sparse. This is the most ordinary small county town in the Central Plains.

When they saw such a large team of carriages slowly coming, the veterans were obviously energetic. Obviously, in their opinion, which caravan came from the north and wanted to enter the city for a while, so naturally, they would have to pay a generous city gate tax, and they could also take the opportunity to get some benefits.

But before they could come forward to stop them, one of them came over and took out the relevant official documents and raised them in front of them, saying, "The fourth rank of the dynasty, the transfer department Shaoqing Li Ling and Li returned home. You can quickly enter the city and report to the county magistrate of this county..."

As soon as Li Ling's name came to his ears, several veterans were stunned in an instant.

They are really well-known to this famous person in this county. Not only are they, but also the entire Jiangcheng County, no one knows Li Ling's name and is not proud of Lord Li.

Because Jiangcheng County has never produced any decent figures in recent years, in the imperial examination, except for Li Ling and Xu Cang who won glory for the county more than ten years ago, the others were at most a Juren. In this way, as the only two Jinshi, and even entered the center in just a few years and months, Li Ling, who naturally became a fourth-rank official in the court, became a powerful figure that countless villagers talked about.

Over the years, how many people have boasted about their friendship with Lord Li, drinking and reading with him... It can be said that Li Ling's name has long made the people of this county callous to their ears. And now, Lord Li, who has been talking about in people, has returned. How can this not surprise and excitement?

The veteran in the lead looked back and found Li Ling who was riding on the horse with a gentle smile. Naturally, he could not really know Li Ling. Even if he had met before, he could not remember his appearance, but his temperament would not be lying, so he rushed over and saw the big gift: "The little Zhu Shisan has met Lord Li..." As he said that, he quickly gestured to the brothers who were still a little stunned behind him, asking them to go back to the county government to report the message quickly.

Then the others realized that a few sued

Sheng Jiu turned around and ran to the city. The speed was so fast that it was like a tiger driving behind it, which scared many people along the way, thinking that something was wrong.

Fortunately, Jiangcheng County is really not big, so it takes only a meal to run from the city gate to the county government. After the soldier arrived at the place panting, he quickly shouted at the officer at the entrance of the government government: "Hurry, go in and report to the master, Li... Lord Li is back home."

"Mr. Li? Which Master Li?" the servants were a little surprised and asked back.

"Mr. Li Ling and Li, the glory of our Jiangcheng County!" The veteran who finally breathed evenly explained again, which immediately shocked the other party's bodies. Then he turned around decisively and headed straight into the county government.

Then, there was another panic and shouting inside. After a while, the current Jiangcheng County Magistrate Tian Bingwen led a group of officials out hurried out. While walking, they were still tidying up their clothes and wearing official hats. After all, it was impossible to wear all their crowns and uniforms in the public housing at this time. When they heard the news, they were all in a hurry.

But at this time, they didn't care about their embarrassment, and sorted out in public and asked, "Is it true that Lord Li is here? Where is he now?"

The veteran at the gate of the city had been taken into the yamen. Hearing this, he hurried forward to report: "It is true that Lord Li has come. He should have entered the city and will arrive soon..."

"Then you go out with me to welcome me!" Tian Bingwen was happy and quickly spoke, and went straight out in three steps. When he walked to the exit of the second hall, he remembered another point, "You should make arrangements quickly and let the gentry and men of this county come to the county government to accompany you, especially the boss Gu, who heard that he had a deep friendship with Lord Li."

The subordinates quickly agreed and walked out first, and informed the nearby gentry as quickly as possible to come to the county government to meet Lord Li who returned home.

After this busy period, County Magistrate Tian took everyone out of the county government gate and looked towards Chang Street to the north and saw a team of cars and horses slowly coming. As such a team entered the city, it immediately attracted the attention of many residents in the small town. Many people stopped by the road and watched, talking a lot. There were also a few children who actually followed the team all the way, laughing and joking, really a bit presumptuous.

Seeing this, Tian Bingwen frowned. He was about to let someone go and evacuate him, but suddenly he felt a little moved. Lord Li's accompanying did not drive away the quarrels. Obviously he didn't care. After all, these people are the hometowns of Lord Li's fellow villagers, and that little affection cannot be ruined. So soon, he adjusted his expression on his face and greeted him with a smile. When Li Ling arrived, he quickly bowed: "Tian Bingwen, the magistrate of Jiangcheng County, Xiaguan, met Lord Li, but he didn't know that Lord Li had returned to his hometown and had missed the welcome. Please forgive me."

Li Ling saw these officials and people who came out of the county government from afar. When he looked at the awe-in-law eyes of the people in the county townships around him, he felt a little emotional in his heart. No wonder the ancients wanted to say that wealth and honor were like walking in the night of luxury. After this success, it felt really good to pretend to be 13 in front of familiar people.

However, this thought was just a flash. He quickly picked up his identity again, dismounted with a smile, stepped forward and helped Tian Bingwen up: "Mr. Tian, ​​you are a traitor. Li Ling

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Now, please get up quickly. Everyone, get up quickly and talk." The latter sentence was naturally directed at the many county officials who had bowed to him with his elders. Li Ling glanced over and saw several familiar faces, all of whom he had served as a servant when he was working in the county government office.

As the saying goes, the county magistrate who is in a state of iron, ten years is enough for Jiangcheng County Government to replace several county magistrates, but half of these people who are in charge have not changed. Even if there are any changes, the son took over my job. In fact, the people and relationships are still the same.

Naturally, everyone thanked him again, then slowly stood up, and followed his county magistrate to welcome Li Ling into the county government office and sat down in the hall of the second hall.

When Li Ling was talking to the officials in the county government, Li Moyun had already led a team to transport Li Tong's coffin to the Li family's mansion - this is the courtyard that Li Ling bought here after finally becoming a juren. When there were only a few people in the family, it seemed a little empty, but now, there are dozens of slaves in the family alone, and even two yards here can't be accommodated.

Fortunately, those people had not arrived yet, so Li Moyun discussed with Yang Zhen. The latter took a group of people to the inn in the county to settle down, while the others cleaned the entire yard first and then stopped the coffin. As for the others, they naturally had to wait until Li Ling came back before making arrangements.

However, there is one thing that Li Moyun can guess, that is, he will definitely not be able to live here. No matter the size of the place or the regulations of the yard, he is completely unworthy of his own son. He must find another place in the city, or directly choose a good place to build a large mansion that meets Li Ling's identity.

From this point of view, in fact, many people who are quick-minded can see how self-disciplined and dedicated Li Ling is. If it were an ordinary official, with his status and power, he would have probably built a large mansion in his hometown and sent people to stay in the local area. Even his family members bullied men and women here and did everything they could.

But our Lord Li has been busy with official duties and rarely even considers his own affairs. It was not until he returned to his hometown that he found that he didn't even have a place to live...

Amid the feelings of everyone, Li Moyun walked around the courtyards of the two people familiarly, looking at everything familiar and unfamiliar in front of him, and felt deeply moved. He thought of the time when he approached the young master for a certain purpose, but he never doubted himself. He really treated himself like a brother, especially Sister Le'er, who took good care of himself...

Now, he also feels like returning home in glory. For Li Moyun, who has been wandering with his master Shao Qiuxi since childhood, the years he has been with Li Ling, has a stable home, and this is the starting point of home.

So, after walking by and seeing everything here nostalgic, Li Moyun not only felt warm inside, but also made up his mind that he could not let the young master sell the yard. Then when he gets old, he might be able to live here, and if she could live here with him...
