Chapter 292 Asking the Heart on the Street
Yongxing Fifteen Years.
October.
The city of Yuzhou is filled with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.
Outside Yuzhou City, a carriage came slowly.
With the sunset.
Accompanied by the fragrance of osmanthus all over the city...
at the city gate.
Someone from the government office was already waiting.
Seeing the carriage arriving, Yuzhou County Magistrate Gong Qiuan quickly went up to greet it.
"Yuzhou City County Magistrate Gong Qiu'an has met you, sir."
"It's been a long journey, sir. Thank you for your hard work."
A few days ago, Gong Qiu'an found out that the new county magistrate, Lord Shang Zongshang, would arrive in Yuzhou City in the near future, so he was here early. Wait.
As for how to know that the person in this carriage is the person he is waiting for, it is quite simple.
Shang Chaozong didn't hide anything along the way.
How could you not know?
"Thank you for your hard work, Magistrate Gong. I think the magistrate has been waiting for a long time, right?"
The carriage stopped.
A voice came.
A middle-aged man slowly walked out of the carriage.
Seeing this middle-aged man and hearing these words, Gong Qiu'an shook his head quickly:
"My lord is joking, but it's just what a low-ranking official should do. What I'm ashamed of is that the one who dares to come to greet your lord in this huge city of Yuzhou now is Not much more."
"It seems that the Zheng family also knows what I want to do when I enter Yuzhou City."
Gong Qiu'an was embarrassed.
But the silence was hard to say, and
Shang Chaozong didn't say anything more. He just turned around and said respectfully to the inside of the car.
"Sir, we have arrived in Yuzhou City."
Sir?
Gong Qiuan was stunned for a moment.
Is there anyone else in this carriage?
And the new county magistrate still calls him sir?
Who is this?
Gong Qiuan was shocked, thinking that this was an incredible existence.
But when he saw the people getting out of the car, Gong Qiuan was a little surprised.
It was not the white-haired old man he had imagined, but a rather young-looking man.
The man is about thirty years old.
Beside the man, there was a little girl.
She was looking around with a curious expression...
as if she was particularly interested in everything.
"Yuzhou City, but I haven't been back for a long time..."
Chen Luo looked around.
Yuzhou City is still the Yuzhou City of the past.
It has remained unchanged for hundreds of years.
It's just a brick and a tile on the city wall, but it's full of the history of the years.
The air is filled with the lingering scent of osmanthus.
as always.
It will be the same today.
He turned back...
and looked at Shang Chaozong: "Sir, I can't thank you enough for your troubles all the way... but today we have to say goodbye."
Shang Chaozong shook his head.
"Sir, you must not say that."
If he had met him at the time, Shang Chaozong would have really thought that he would have taken care of this little brother Chen on his way here.
But after leaving Junzhou City, Shang Chaozong realized how lucky he had to be to meet this person...
it was not because of his care.
Instead, it was Chen Luo who protected him all the way into Yuzhou City.
Thinking of what he has experienced in the past year...
it was the first time that Shang Chaozong knew what it means to be someone outside the world, and there is a world outside the world.
At first everything was fine.
After leaving the boundary of Junzhou, we headed to Nanshan Ferry.
Down by boat.
It was quite peaceful.
Occasionally, there would be some inconspicuous evil spirits causing trouble on the river, but they would eventually calm down under his awe-inspiring Qi!
Until...there is a dragon in the river!
Jiao is the demon king!
Make waves and stir up dark clouds.
That little boat swayed in the wind, no matter how much his Haoran's true energy did, it was like a leaf of duckweed. Not only could it stop the dragon, it might not even be able to resist its breath!
But that was at this time.
There was a sound coming from inside the boat.
It was just a faint word, but it was this word that he could never forget in his life.
He said: "Behead!"
So...
the waves in the river and sea gathered together and turned into a sword.
The sword fell.
The dragon split into two.
Fall into the river.
Yunzhou realm.
Encountering a battle between immortals...
the heaven and earth were covered.
The heavy rain poured down and the green mountains were nowhere to be seen.
He also mistakenly fell into the magical power of immortals, and everything he looked at was covered in darkness.
He obtained the bright fire between heaven and earth, and illuminated this area of heaven and earth, so that the future would not be hindered.
All kinds of magical powers.
Various means.
After that, Shang Chaozong no longer dared to call Chen Luo his brother...
Later.
He even saw someone turn into a rainbow and fall in front of Chen Luo.
Wearing a red flying fish suit.
Holding an embroidered spring knife.
Seeing Chen Luo, he saluted...
with great respect.
The person coming is Huangfu Yao.
As the commander of the Jinyi Guards...
he became the leader of the monks in the world, and was known as the Six Great Masters.
At this point, Shang Chaozong called Chen Luo sir...
"It's just that I don't know where sir will go when he enters Yuzhou?"
Chen Luo thought for a moment.
Shaking his head: "I don't know yet."
He has a yard...
just now.
It's hard to say whether we can go to that courtyard...
"If so, sir, can you live in my courtyard?"
Shang Chaozong asked Chen Luo.
Chen Luo smiled and said: "Let's take a look before we talk. I haven't been back for a long time, so I would like to meet you in Yuzhou City. If we are destined, maybe I won't bother you again!"
Shang Chaozong is not easy to force.
Chen Luo said goodbye.
He lowered his head and said to Xiaobai:
"Let's go and have a look in the city. I remember, you have never been to Yuzhou City?"
"Have you been?"
Xiaobai said: "But it seems to be before the transformation..." "
That's true too. It's been a long time."
"Yeah!"
Xiaobai asked, "Chen Luo, where are we going?"
"Let's walk around, see and listen, and learn something!"
"Okay."
Xiaobai stopped asking. , just follow Chen Luo anyway.
It doesn't really matter what you do.
"Master Shang, who is that gentleman?" Gong Qiu'an asked.
Shang Chaozong shook his head: "Don't ask, Magistrate Gong..."
Who is he?
In fact, if there is any guess in Shang Chaozong's mind, it is just impossible to determine whether it will happen in the end.
But...
"The Zheng family in Yuzhou!"
"Perhaps soon, there will be no more Zheng family in Yuzhou!"
Gong Qiu'an was puzzled.
But don’t ask.
Governor Shang came back for Yuzhou City, so he thought he had prepared for all this.
And...
if the Zheng family in Yuzhou can really be restrained, it will be a good thing for Yuzhou.
Shang Chaozong is also good.
Gong Qiuan is also good.
They are all good officials in Yuzhou City...
Of course, officials like them have never done well in Yuzhou City, and they can also be said to be in a mess.
When Chen Luo and the others entered Yuzhou City, they entered through the east gate.
He took Xiaobai around the west gate.
Not far from the west gate... there is a tea stall.
It happened to be not far from the city gate, and it was particularly obvious...
Chen Luo came in here for the first time in Yuzhou City. Here, he drank his first cup of tea and met Zheng He.
Two hundred years ago, Chen Luo left Yuzhou City...
before leaving.
The last cup of tea I drank was also the tea here.
When Chen Luo came...
the owner of the tea stall came to greet him.
The boss is not very old, maybe in his thirties...but he looks a bit older than Chen Luo.
"Young master, would you like some tea?"
"A pot of tea, sir?"
"Would you like some refreshments?"
"Some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes."
"Isn't this your first time coming to Yuzhou City, right?"
"How can you tell?"
"Yuzhou City The best thing is the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. If you don’t know someone here, you won’t order this when you come in. It’s mostly fennel, peanuts and the like. A little bit like the young master’s is the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. It’s rare!” Chen Luo smiled
. He got up and said, "The boss has a good eye. I came to Yuzhou City in the past. An old friend said that the osmanthus cake was good and good, so I remembered it!" "The osmanthus cake in Yuzhou is indeed good, especially now, the city is full of osmanthus fragrance
. , it's even better."
"It's just the right time!"
"Of course!"
The boss smiled...
and served tea.
Refreshments were served.
But a small plate of fennel and peanuts was served.
"Boss...this peanut?"
Chen Luo asked.
They didn't order the peanuts.
"It's for sir. It's dusk now, and it will be time to close the stall soon... There is an unwritten rule at this tea stall. Both the first customer and the last customer will give something as a gift." "This rule?" "I just thought about
it
. "..."
Chen Luo smiled.
The boss also laughed.
This boss is an interesting person...
So Chen Luo invited the boss to chat with him.
The boss thought that he was not polite, so he sat down and chatted a lot with Chen Luo.
Chen Luo also knew that the boss's surname was Shi...
name: Wanli!
The name is good...
Xiaobai doesn't care about Chen Luo and the boss. She is busy eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake and peanuts...
with a look on her face.
Chen Luo rubbed her head.
"This child has food but no image at all."
"It's normal. My children were like this when they were young..."
"Daughter?"
"Yeah."
"How old are you..."
"Fifteen" !"
"Then you can get married."
"The marriage has been agreed upon, and we are waiting to choose a date."
Shi Wanli said: "Young Master, this child is still young, but if he is going to get married in a few years, Young Master But I'm going to be sad."
"Married?"
Xiaobai raised his head.
She became a little curious: "Who is getting married? Can I get red envelopes again?"
Chen Luo patted her forehead gently: "I'll take it from you, don't ask random questions."
But if this novice married People...
Chen Luo thought, then he might cry.
Who can say for sure?
Chen Luo and his boss chatted a lot... or they were free, and the boss was happy,
so Chen Luo also asked some things.
Or asked accidentally.
Or the boss said it himself.
For example, this stall used to belong to the Zheng family, but how come it now belongs to him?
I found out later.
A long time ago, the Zheng family stopped doing these small businesses.
He pointed to the restaurants and inns not far away.
"That's the Zheng family... They are the nobles of Yuzhou City, and they don't like these small businesses."
Shi Wanli said.
In addition to what he said, there seems to be something else he wants to say.
But after all, he still didn't say it.
Chen Luo didn't ask much...
There were some words that he didn't say, but he could hear them...
The six magical powers of Buddhism.
There is always a magical power, and as long as you are willing, you can know everything that is in the heart of a mortal.
Two hundred years...
can really change a lot of things.
Take a step.
Farewell.
Chen Luo is not in a hurry...
walking on the street.
No hurry, no slowness.
There are sounds in my ears...
either from what I'm thinking, or from people talking behind my back.
Chen Luo listened slowly.
Stroke slowly.
The more I sighed in my heart...
But in just two hundred years, it is really impossible to fathom how things in life and people's hearts have changed.
[When you are walking on the street, you use your inner feelings to see things in the world of mortals, and you have a vague sense of them!
Immortal experience is improved.
+1500!
PS: The world of mortals can be described as such, but it is not as fickle as the human heart. I hope that when you look back in the thousands of years, you will never forget your original intention! 】
