Ma Zhongfang, the governor of Quanzhou, was a military minister and the deputy envoy of the Left Gangku of Xijing. Because Cao Keming recommended him to serve here, he had a connection with Xu Ping. After meeting him, he found out that Ma Zhongfang had an old friend with Li Yonghe when he was in Beijing. He was very intimate with Xu Ping and accompanied him to imprison him outside Quanzhou.

After passing Quanzhou, if you return to Beijing, the next stop should be Yongzhou and go north along the official road.

Daozhou is not on this avenue. It is connected to Guangnan East Road, which is next to the Misky River, and can also go to Xiangjiang River. The imperial court was demoted to officials, and this was an important stop, and even further south was Lingnan. Correspondingly, most of the officials who met the north of Lingnan who moved from Lingnan also settled here.

Xu Ping rode a horse and looked at the official road heading north in the distance and sighed secretly. It turned out that this road had become a highway? He might not be able to do anything big in this world, but if he could build this road to every crowded place and leave his own mark, it would be a waste of time to come to this world.

The low mountains in Daozhou in the distance are undulating and planting mulberry rice, which is already a scene of a land of fish and rice. Between the five ridges and one mountain, there are two worlds. Looking back on the six years in Lingnan, it is like a big dream.

Ren Shouzhong gritted his teeth, but unexpectedly, Xu Ping was not very good at official positions, but had good popularity. Along the way, he came from Taiping County, either the people or the officials, and he had always been taken care of. He came out a thousand miles away, but he didn't find a chance to start. He went to Daozhou and handed over to local officials. Ren Shouzhong was about to return to Beijing to report his life, which made him angry.

Walking along the road in the low mountains, Ren Shouzhong was angry and fought all the way. Xu Ping had no intention of enjoying the scenery on the roadside,

The two places were less than a hundred miles away, and they had a meal in the middle. In the evening, they ran to the inn outside Daozhou City. At this time, the sun had not yet set. The sky was filled with red clouds.

The Daozhou Inn is also next to the Misky Water. It is not far from the wharf and can go straight to the Xiangjiang River.

At dinner time, two veterans were cleaning at the entrance of the inn. There were also several innkeepers washing rice and vegetables by the water not far away. Everything seemed quiet and peaceful under the setting sun.

Ren Shouzhong lifted the reins of the horse and rushed straight to the gate of the inn.

The veteran who swept the floor was startled, looked at the official uniform of the horseman, and hurried forward to salute: "Prince, please dismount. I'll go in and report now!"

Ren Shouzhong said in a sharp voice: "Go in and tell the official secretary and ask the local magistrate to come to see me quickly!"

The veteran was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Ren Shouzhong looked bad, he didn't dare to say anything, so he turned around and entered the inn.

Xu Ping just watched coldly and didn't speak. Now that he had arrived at the place and told the governor of the prefecture that he would not be subject to Ren Shouzhong. Let's see how long he was arrogant.

Xin Ruoji, the chief minister of the Daozhou Palace, joined the officialdom with kindness. His father, Xin Zhongfu, was appointed as the chief minister of the Emperor Taizong, and retired as the young master of the prince. Xin Zhongfu was a civil servant and had a military strategy. He was also considered a famous minister for a while. Speaking of which, Xu Ping and Xin Zhongfu were a bit similar, and they should have a common language with Xin Ruoji.

After a while, the postmaster ran out of the inn, and his official robe was crooked and obviously he had just been put on. When he arrived in front of Ren Shouzhong's horse, he saluted and said, "I don't know what Shangguan is called the little local postmaster Lin Xuanzhong? Why is the official business here? Do you have a document postmaster?"

"Ship coupon? What is the post coupon!" Ren Shouzhong changed his face when he heard the official question from the post chief. He whipped his head in his hand without any shame. "What is the post coupon? You said! I took the imperial medicine to worship, and the empress dowager sent me to do things according to the order of the empress dowager. You dare to ask for the post coupon!"

When the Yicheng heard that it was the person next to the Empress Dowager, he had to swallow his anger and hugged his head and asked carefully: "I don't know why Shangguan is here for business? I'm also ready."

"You are a little postmaster, ask so much about what you do! Go and call the magistrate to the prefect. I have some business to tell them not to delay!"

The postmaster took two steps back and said respectfully: "I told Shangguan that the two officials, the governor of this prefecture, are not in the prefecture city now, and Shangguan will have to wait a few days to see them."

"What? The two commanders are not here. How did they do their jobs for the officials? They left their posts without regard for the affairs of the people. Is the Li Ministry of Works so indulged in the reign of the reign of the people?"

At this time, Li Zhaoshu used the Ministry of Works as the transfer commander of Jinghu South Road and was in charge of the assassination official. Although it was strictly speaking, it was not related to the superiors and subordinates of the prefecture, but he had the responsibility of supervision.

Where can a small postmaster explain these things? He had to answer carefully: "Shangguan misunderstood. It was the official who was the official who was in charge of the Guiyang Superintendent and summoned the commanders of the nearby prefectures to wherever they were, the officials of the prefects were not in the city. The judge went down to inspect the county and had not come back yet."

After hearing this, Ren Shouzhong was not going to have another attack. After thinking for a while, he didn't know what he remembered, his face calmed down and said to the Yicheng: "Since that's the case, go in and prepare your residence for us. Stay here for a few days and wait for the prefect to come back."

Along the way, I passed by a state and didn't see a single magistrate. Xu Ping had done this job himself and knew that he had gone down to inspect. Taking advantage of the weather now, he would quickly complete the inspection mission for the season, otherwise when the weather gets hot, he would be unable to get along with him.

The same is true for the transshipment envoy. This season is when inspecting the states. After this month, he honestly returned to the yamen and waited until autumn before he would go on a tour again.

The Transport Department Office on Jinghu South Road was in Tanzhou. Li Zhaoshu couldn't wait to patrol all the southern states, so he had to find an excuse to call the magistrates to Guiyang Supervisory and listen to their reports.

Guiyang Supervisory has many mining and smelting places, which are a must-visit place for transportation and use, but the adjacent Daozhou is exempted.

When he arrived at the inn, Ren Shouzhong ordered Xu Ping to have a separate yard and ordered his subordinates to guard Gao Daquan, Sun Qilang and Xiuxiu to drive out together.

Sun Qilang said angrily: "We follow the officials from Kaifeng to Lingnan, and then from Lingnan to here. Why do you drive people away? You need to know that officials also need people to take care of them!"

Ren Shouzhong stepped on the dismounting stone at the entrance of the inn and sneered: "Along the way, you guys followed you to eat and drink, but I was already merciful. Now that you are at the scene, you still want to eat and live with Xu Ping for free. Where can you do that kind of good thing? I have the order of the queen mother, and I must hand Xu Ping over to the local chief. I can't be careless at all. How can I allow you to be by his side? Xu Ping is domineering, and everyone in the capital knows. Who knows if there are any unhappy servants? If something happens secretly, he has a few things, how can I get in the office?"

Gao Daquan said coldly: "If you lock the official in the inn, who knows if it will be bad? If we don't let us watch, we can't rest assured you!"

Ren Shouzhong sneered: "Where are you, there are no places where you servants talk too much about the affairs of the official family? This is the court's inn, without an official position and no post tickets. How far are you going to get as far as you go!"

After saying that, he advanced into the inn.

Xiuxiu watched Ren Shouzhong disappear into the inn and said anxiously: "What should I do? This person's actions must be detrimental to the officials!"

Gao Daquan thought about it and said to the other two: "It's a pier, let's find a place to rest first. If we don't let us live in the inn, can we still block our greetings sooner or later? As long as we keep our eyes on it, will that eunuch really dare to take the slaughter!"

After sending Gao Daquan and a few others away, Ren Shouzhong came to Xu Ping's residence. Seeing Xu Ping blowing in the ventilated area in the yard, he said proudly: "The magistrate and the governor are not here, so I have to stay with you for a few more days. The inn here is clean and tidy, and there is no one else to live there. You have to live comfortably!"

Xu Ping looked at Ren Shouzhong and was silent for a while. Suddenly Zhan Yan smiled and said, "It seems that the head of the Pavilion can't stand the loneliness after all, and he sent my servant away. I think he has to use means to deal with me. When he was against Mr. Li, the eunuch put the food sour before he could eat, and the same is true for Mr. Kou and Mr. Cao. Now Mr. Li is the prime minister, I wonder what the eunuch who treated him harshly back then?"

Speaking of Li Di, Ren Shouzhong's face became ugly. How about the eunuch who treated Li Di back then? Speaking of which, Li Di was a literati and was generous. He did not let the eunuch kill the eunuch to death with a slap in the palace, but was just demoted to the far-far-evil state army. When he arrived, a local official sued the eunuch and was disobeyed by Shamen Island. I don't know if he still has his life now.

Seeing Xu Ping's face sarcastically, Ren Shouzhong came to his senses and said angrily: "What kind of thing are you? You can compare with Mr. Li! With the empress dowager here, you can be the prime minister? Pee as soon as possible!"

Xu Ping just smiled and shook his head. It is hard to say whether he could become the prime minister, but the empress dowager did not have much birthday, but it was a foregone conclusion. When these eunuchs lost their backings, they would slowly find them back. I really can't figure it out. Empress Dowager Liu is already old, and these people around him really think that she can live to be over 80 like Wu Zetian and keep them rich forever.

Seeing Xu Ping's indifferent expression, Ren Shouzhong became even more angry and said to Xu Ping: "Since you talk about Mr. Li, then you can try the methods you used back then! I'll find dog food for you to eat for three days!"

"If you have the ability, you will starve me to death!"

Xu Ping smiled and turned back to the room.

The experiences of Kou Zhun, Li Di and Cao Yong had already spread all over the world at this time, and Xu Ping also realized that the methods of these eunuchs were nothing more than disgusting themselves. Those ministers were all face-loving people, especially Cao Yong, who was too strong in nature, so he became the eunuchs's words. Kou Zhun pulled the face and had nothing to do.

I have been a human being for two lifetimes, and I will fight against a eunuch for these false reputations. I can only endure it for a few days. When the governor comes back, everything will pass. When one day I make a fortune, I will have to peel off the eunuch.

In the evening, Ren Shouzhong indeed asked Xiao Huangmen to intercept Xu Ping's supper, and made a large bowl of half-cooked rice with rice, no vegetables or soup, and made Xu Ping's supper.

If you eat this and drink two bowls of water, you will have to lose your stomach. Xu Ping put the food he sent to the windowsill, ignored the little yellow door that was looking at outside, and fell asleep.
