After walking around Hongjia County, Meng Changqing wanted to visit other counties even more.
So the next day, when she was sure her period was over, she prepared to take people to Liangzhou Mansion.
When Bafang was informing his entourage, Hu Xiaohua found Meng Changqing with the medicine, "Since you are going to Liangzhou Prefecture, you might as well send me back along the way. You can run around everywhere. It doesn't matter whether I am here or not. Be careful. Just let the wound become infected”
"Thank you, Sister Hua, for taking care of me these days."
Hu Xiaohua put down the things in her hands, "You are the best at thanking people, and thanking others is worthless."
Meng Changqing took out the money bag that he had prepared a long time ago and said, "I've delayed you for these days, so please accept it."
"I'm not a polite person." Hu Xiaohua took it and weighed it, unable to help but smile, "Remember to call me when you set off."
Wen knew that Hu Xiaohua was leaving, so she and Liang Jiujiu sent a package, which contained shoes and socks that Liang Jiujiu had made for her.
Hu Xiaohua only tried the shoes on the spot. They fit comfortably, the stitching was tight, and the materials were solid. She liked them very much.
As she said, she was not a polite person. She skipped the process of pretending to refuse and accepted the package immediately.
But when she got into the carriage, she felt something else in her socks.
Looking at Meng Changqing who was also in the carriage, Hu Xiaohua took out the money bag in her socks and said, "It would be nice if I didn't find it again when I got home."
Meng Changqing smiled and said: "Since it is my own silver, what difference does it make if I find out sooner or later?"
Hu Xiaohua understood what she meant, but she opened her purse and looked at it. Inside was a ten-tael silver cake, "Isn't this too much?"
"No more, no more, too little."
After entering the Liangzhou City Gate, Hu Xiaohua took advantage of the slow speed of the carriage and jumped off.
Bafang was startled and quickly controlled his horse to try to stop.
Hu Xiaohua said to them: "I'll walk back by myself, go and do your business!"
Meng Changqing opened the car curtain and said to her: "Send hello to your parents for me."
Hu Xiaohua waved vigorously and walked away quickly.
As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of Liangzhou Mansion, Wei Fangyun walked out. It can be seen that as soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the city, someone came to report.
"It's convenient for you on your feet. If you need anything, just send someone to tell you."
Meng Changqing got off the carriage, "It was already rude of Changqing to trouble my uncle to visit me before. Now that my injury has healed, I naturally want to come and see my uncle."
"You are always polite. Don't stand outside. Bafang helps your young master and sit inside to talk."
Wei Fangyun took them to the living room to sit down and asked the Yamen servants to serve tea.
"Uncle, I brought some vermicelli here. It was made by my family Lai Cai. The taste is a little different from what you have eaten before. Please try it."
"Okay, I will accept your filial piety."
Wei Fangyun asked Meng Changqing again, "How is your recovery from your injury?"
"I changed the dressing last night and it seems that the wound has almost healed. The doctor also said that you can try to walk in two days."
"That puts me at ease." Wei Fangyun said.
Meng Changqing stood up, saluted Wei Fangyun and said: "My lord, I have something to report to you if you lower your rank."
"Come on, sit down and talk about it no matter what."
"Thank you, Sir." Meng Changqing took his seat and continued: "Yesterday, Xiaguan originally planned to go on a tour of the city wall, but when he reached the junction with Hongjia County, he suddenly had the idea that he wanted to visit Hongjia County. I thought so, I also asked Mr. Hua for instructions.
Please forgive me for not asking you for instructions in advance on my trip to Hongjia County. ”
"Since Mr. Hua is willing to let you go, and since I have never doubted you in my heart, and told me today, then this matter is over." Seeing Meng Changqing want to get up again, Wei Fangyun waved his hand towards him, " Sitting.”
Wei Fangyun let it go generously, but Meng Changqing pushed further, "Uncle, after seeing Hongjia County, Changqing feels more and more that he knows very little and has not learned enough. He wants to go to other counties in Liangzhou to see more, and he also asks his uncle for permission." Wei Fangyun thought for a moment and then said, "It's good that you want to learn more and gain more knowledge. Within my authority, I will try my best to facilitate you.
Just, what do you want to learn? What do you want to see? ”
"I want to see the layout of each county, where the farmland in the villages is, and what the emphasis is on the towns. Only by using this reference can we better build our Beishan County."
"Only looking at the layout?" Wei Fangyun asked.
Meng Changqing nodded, "Yes."
"Okay. When are you going to go? I'll have someone deliver the letter in advance."
Meng Changqing was eager, "If possible, I would like to go today."
"So anxious?" Wei Fangyun asked, but before Meng Changqing could answer, he said, "That's fine, it's the most leisurely time now. You wait here while I ask the government officials to deliver letters to the counties. ”
"Thank you, sir."
Wei Fangyun wrote five identical letters, handed them to his trusted subordinates, and distributed them to all counties.
Mr. Zeng from Quping County had just come down from the court after judging the case when he received a letter from his master.
"Sir, this is a letter from Liangzhou Prefecture. I am staying in the greenhouse to rest."
Zeng Jing immediately opened the envelope and looked at it. After reading it, he could not help frowning and feeling dissatisfied, "What is this for?"
The master who had deliberately kept a distance just now came up to him and said, "Sir, what happened?"
Zeng Jing directly brought the letter to him and said, "Look at it."
The master took the letter and read it over and over several times, "Look, the meaning of this letter is that Mr. Meng wants to come to our place for a visit, and Mr. Futai will accompany him personally.
My lord, you should immediately ask people to clean the streets and be ready to welcome Shangguan. ”
"Please tell me to go down and go to the messenger to ask clearly what is the purpose of this trip?"
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
After the master left, it took him half an hour before he hurried back and said, "Sir, I have given instructions. I also asked the messenger, but he didn't know anything.
I asked another question, Mr. Meng is indeed in the Liangzhou government office today.
Such a weird thing is really not like Mr. Futai's style. Perhaps it is what Mr. Meng asked for, as the letter said.
Don't worry, adults. ”
"How can we not be overly worried? No matter who is asking for it, the palace is here." Zeng Jing held the letter on the table, "You ask someone to go to Bishan and ask Mr. Luo if he has received such a message." ”
"Hey!"
The master was about to go, but Zeng Jing stopped him before he had gone a few steps, "Go, remember to change your clothes. If you meet people from Liangzhou Prefecture on the way, don't let them recognize you."
"Yes."
During the time when Zeng Jing sent people to Bishan, Wei Fangyun had already taken Meng Changqing to Luojiang County.
Luojiang County is the county closest to Liangzhou Government Office and the richest place in Liangzhou.
The rice supplied to Meng Changqing every month is produced in Luojiang County.
Like Zeng Jing in Quping County, Master Ding in Luojiang County immediately started cleaning the streets after receiving the letter.
Just as the cleaning was finished here, someone announced that Mr. Futai's motorcade had arrived.
Master Ding was waiting at the gate of the county seat, watching a group of people approaching quickly in the distance.
He immediately led his officials to stand respectfully. (End of chapter)
