Chapter 446 King De’s Envoy (13)
"The emperor's blood is shaking, this person is not the messenger."
An Jing knew very well the value of the emperor's blood induction. This messenger either had a magic weapon or was a close associate of King De - it couldn't be possessed by King De himself, right?
other side.
"Want to see the city lord? Please identify yourself!"
In Linjiang City, around the government office, a team of patrolling warriors blocked a fat man who wanted to walk directly towards the government office: "You said you are from the southern state capital? Those from the south are not allowed! Please show your identity!"
Obviously, this is the scene where a person who wants to visit the city lord Anjing is stopped by the guards.
Ever since Lord An opened the trade route, this kind of thing has happened frequently. For the resources of Broken Edge Mountain, various chamber of commerce lobbyists and southern envoys wanted to meet with An Jing.
An Jing was willing to meet him at first, but later became a little annoyed. To put it bluntly, these people just want to share the profits, or they are trying to get Anjing to give them preferential treatment in the name of other southern officials.
So later, An Jing simply refused all visits without reporting any surprises, and this fat envoy was obviously no exception.
"Boss, this is not good."
On the other side, Xu Tai was standing on the second floor of the restaurant not far away, looking seriously at the fat messenger from a distance who was hesitating and couldn't tell what his purpose was, but was not afraid of the guards' interrogation at all.
Beside him, the original deputy of the escort asked with some worry: "There are just other businessmen. This guy who claims to be from the southern state capital is obviously an official... At least he was an official before. It's not like we haven't seen him before. , He is obviously the secret envoy of some high-ranking official, wouldn’t it be a bad idea if we stopped him like this?”
"Old Zheng, do you know why I think you can't take over my job, and you will only be a deputy at most?"
And Xu Tai whispered: "Because you think about everything for your employer, what about your mission?"
"The city lord has set a rule - no one who doesn't tell his origin and purpose cannot see him. Can we take the initiative to break this rule? We are not responsible for handling government affairs, we are only responsible for screening those who have unknown purpose. What's wrong with us? ?”
"but……"
The deputy known as Lao Zheng frowned: "Your Excellency has probably been waiting for the other party for a long time. We stopped him in such a big way. If he is exposed, wouldn't it be our fault?"
"Old Zheng." Xu Tai sighed: "Who can avoid making mistakes? Do you think the city lord is a person who cannot forgive his mistakes?"
"Not to mention that City Lord An is probably just like us looking to see if this 'secret envoy' is willing to show his identity and meet him through formal channels - assuming the City Lord is not here, can we go overboard and make the decision on behalf of the City Lord and let him go?"
"You have to understand that we all have to show a good attitude and do what the employer requires. The employer will take care of other things on its own - the simplest thing is, if we let people go this time, will it be Dachen or Dachen who hires us? Peace?"
These words seemed a bit rebellious, but for a place like Northern Xinjiang, it was enough for Lao Zheng to understand. He thought about it: "Yes, I understand, it is the city lord who is asking this secret agent to show his face. Come and see him as you are!"
"The other party wants to meet in secret, and the city lord hopes to do something with the other party's public identity. We must make mistakes, and make mistakes on behalf of the big shots above. Making mistakes is a blessing."
"You understand." Xu Tai nodded slightly, and he pointed out: "Our escort agency is lucky this time, and we have clung to the thigh of God. Even if we make a mistake, City Lord An behind us will definitely be able to protect us. As long as there is no Principled mistakes and small mistakes can be brushed off.”
"But if you don't abide by An Jing's rules, it's a principled mistake. Remember, we are not a bodyguard agency now. We don't need to consider our employer's likes and dislikes. We are officials under An Jing. We only need to consider completing the above tasks. '. "Compared to those subordinates and colleagues who were still a little bit like escorts, Xu Tai changed his mind very quickly, not only because he was from a martial arts academy, but also because he had worked hard to fulfill a promise. He knew very well that An Jing was setting rules recently.
When it comes to establishing rules, reputation, and credibility, being inhumane is an advantage. As long as Anjing is not stupid and he and others follow the rules and stop the emissary, they will definitely have merit and be worthy of trust!
"Xu Tai knows very well."
On the top floor of the government office, An Jing looked at some familiar figures in the distance and nodded with satisfaction: "Although I don't expect King De's envoy to show his identity and enter the government office openly, I still have to show my attitude - I am not casual. The type who can run away with just a hook. If you want me to do something, you have to clearly mark the price. "
"And the first reward is your identity."
Soon, the slightly fat official who was being interrogated by the guards helplessly raised his head, looked in the direction of the government office, and sighed: "Hey, I'll make it clear, I am the envoy of His Highness King De, and I am here to In order to negotiate some matters with Lord An..."
"What?"
The guards shouted in surprise: "Are you the envoy of His Highness King De?"
"Yes, I am..." Before the fat official could repeat, a whole row of warriors suddenly spoke in unison, saying in a loud voice: "It turns out to be the envoy of His Highness King De. Oh, we are such damn country bumpkins. , what a stupid thing you did to stop the messenger of King De↑(Super Loud)!”
"Wanwang respectfully asks the envoy to forgive us countrymen for being rude and please come in!"
Not long after, everyone in the city, including the caravans, knew that King De's envoy had arrived in Linjiang City and was meeting with An Jing in the official palace.
"Hey, isn't this Zheng Chengzheng?"
And when the slightly fat official actually met An Jing, An Jing discovered that the official in front of him who had lost a lot of weight and had a ghostly air of death was actually his old acquaintance, the mayor of Kanming City. Zheng Mo!
Now An Jing was really surprised: "When did you die, and you turned into a sinner? What happened in Kanming City?!"
I have also lived in Kanming City for a long time. There are still many acquaintances in Anjing in that place. If a disaster really happened that would kill even Chengzheng, those acquaintances would probably be dead.
"It's a long story... There's nothing wrong with Kanming City, it's me who does."
Zheng Mo smiled bitterly. He was not anxious about being made difficult. Instead, he sincerely praised: "On the contrary, it's you, An Jing. I never expected that in just about half a year, you could actually destroy a building that should have collapsed." The city was rebuilt in good order again.”
"Before I came to visit, I walked around the city. Everyone was living and working in peace and contentment. Every family had enough food. Everyone looked very happy. In addition to the great victory not long ago... If I had a quarter of your ability , Kanming City won’t have to suffer so many disasters.”
Zheng Mo's emotion came from the bottom of his heart. Although An Jing didn't know what happened to the other party, it obviously made this Dachen official who was just getting along in the past grow up.
【Be careful, An Jing】
However, spiritual thoughts came from the jade mirror in An Jing's arms, and Master Chen Yinzi reminded him: "This person has the incarnation of King De's spiritual thoughts!" 】
[Just like you and me now, the newly appointed King De is now hidden in the talisman in this guy's arms! 】
