ps: It is really troublesome to check the information...

More than a month later, Ito Cheng came to Jiaozhi and approached the Governor's Mansion.

In fact, with Ito Cheng's speed of action, no matter how slow it is, it will not take more than a month to arrive at the address, or even half a day at most.But that is not in line with the reality. The imperial decree of the appointment was officially issued the night before, so how could it appear in front of the governor the next day?Even if Zhang Jin, the governor, recognized the true violation of the imperial decree, he would think it was hypocritical, not only would he not treat him correctly, but he would directly order Cheng Ito to be taken down as a traitor!

Although Ito Cheng's strength does not have these at all...

Therefore, in order to avoid such unnecessary troubles, it took more than a month to arrive at Jiaozhi with the mood of traveling in mountains and rivers and admiring the scenery of ancient China.

Of course, Cheng Ito was not alone at this time, and there was a man dressed as a servant beside him.

"Stop coming!" Seeing the two of Ito Cheng, the soldiers guarding the governor's mansion immediately shouted to stop.

"This is the governor's mansion, the idlers should retreat quickly!"

"Soldier, my lord is the newly-appointed prefect of Cangwu, and please ask the strong man to pass on the message to Lord Inspector." Without Itocheng's order, the servant man at the side immediately stepped forward, smiling at The two soldiers guarding the gate introduced.

The two soldiers were startled when they heard the words, and couldn't help but looked at each other.

"Just wait." One of them didn't dare to neglect, and greeted.He turned around and ran into the governor's mansion, leaving another person to watch over the two of them.

until a few minutes later.The soldier ran back again.

"My lords invite you in," said the soldier.

"Thank you." Ito Cheng arched his hands to the man, then turned his head and said to the servant next to him, "Just wait here."

"Yes, sir." The servant bowed in response.

Then Ito Cheng ignored the servant and followed the soldier to the interior of the governor's mansion.

Although it is the governor's mansion, because the address is located in the south of the Lingnan Mountains, most of the people under its jurisdiction are mountain forests and mausoleums, and the people are mostly wild people. The building of the governor's mansion is not very luxurious, it is simple and simple, but the houses There are many pavilions, one next to the other.There are seven or eight rooms, and a young woman in plain children's clothes walks through them lightly, doing ordinary work.

In this way, under the curious eyes of the maids, Ito Cheng followed the soldiers to a house.

The room is not small, about three or four square meters. A platform about ten centimeters high and made of mud is built at the innermost end of the room. There are several rolls of bamboo slips as thick as an arm, and one is wearing a red Hanfu.Wearing a high crown on the head, black and white mixed hair, a bit of majesty on the face, and a red cloth tied on the forehead.A Hawthorn Confucian scholar who looked to be around 50 to [-] years old was sitting behind a low table, holding a scroll of bamboo slips, watching with great interest.

"My lord." The soldier saluted and called.

The old man raised his head.With bright eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, he looked at Ito Cheng who came in with the soldiers.

"Late birth Chen Xicheng, I pay my respects to the governor." Itocheng stretched his arms forward.The thumbs of both hands stand tall, and the other eight fingers are folded and pressed.First, it is held high above the head, and then the head and arms are bent down to meet the Tao.

What is used is the series of rites in the Nine Rites of the Han Dynasty, which are only used for worshiping the ancestors of Huang Tianhou and other ancestors.

"You say you are the new prefect of Cangwu, but you have evidence." The governor, that is, Zhang Jin put the bamboo slips in his hand back on the low table, looked directly at Itocheng and said in a low voice.

Although it was just an ordinary question, a majesty that had been in the top position for a long time spread from him in an instant, pressing directly on Ito Cheng.

Ito Cheng is naturally not afraid of the majesty of a mere mortal superior, not to mention that he got the official position according to the orthodox route, and he is not afraid of Zhang Jin's censure, so he took out the bright yellow silk cloth from his sleeves with a very flat face. Cheng's imperial decree was held in his hand, and he said, "I have a letter of appointment from the emperor himself."

After speaking, he stepped forward and handed over the imperial decree in his hand.

Seeing the imperial decree, Zhang Jin quickly stood up from the futon, stretched out his hands to receive the imperial decree, and spread it out in front of Ito Cheng.

In an instant, an article written in Mandarin, with Ito Cheng's information and appointment letter, and the content of the imperial decree with the seal of Yuxi came into Zhang Jin's eyes.

"Hahahaha, if Yi Neng is here to pay the address, Cangwu will surely be governed." After a while, Zhang Jin closed the imperial decree, walked down the mud platform with a big laugh, and said to Itocheng with admiration.

(I was reminded by a book friend, only to find out that the names of people in the Three Kingdoms period are all single characters except for the compound surname, so here Ito Cheng’s changed name is Chen Yi, with the word Xicheng.)

"Your Excellency is absurd. If Cangwu can achieve great governance, it must be the gift of Mr. Governor's achievements in the past, not Yi's power." Itocheng said modestly.

"Hahaha, Xicheng is being modest." Zhang Jin said with a smile on his face.

Sure enough, no matter what their status is, they love to listen to flattery.No, Yi, Yi, who were still very official before, called Shang Xi in a blink of an eye, and the relationship seemed a lot closer.

Ito Cheng smiled slightly, but said nothing.

"Come here." Zhang Jin turned his head and looked outside the house and shouted loudly.

"My lord." A soldier quickly showed his figure and responded respectfully.

"Go and inform Master Cao that they will come to my place as soon as possible. I want to hold a banquet." Zhang Jin ordered.

"Yes." The soldier agreed and quickly retreated.

"Sit." Zhang Jin, who had ordered the soldiers, turned his head to look at Ito Cheng, and said with a smile, pointing to a futon beside him.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jin only felt that the eyes of Ito Cheng in front of him lit up, and his consciousness became blurred.It's just that this feeling didn't last long, that is, within a few seconds, he woke up.

"My lord, you are fine." At this moment, Ito Cheng's concerned voice came to Zhang Jin's ear.

"Oh, it's okay. It's probably because I've been reading for a long time. Suddenly I feel a little dizzy." Zhang Jin shook his head slightly, looked at Ito Cheng in front of him and smiled.

Just don't know why.Suddenly, I felt a lot better about the person from Youzhou who appeared out of nowhere in front of me, thinking that this guy was a trustworthy person.No need for special attention and suppression.

"Adult's body is very important, so you should pay more attention to your body." Ito Cheng said with concern.

"The old man knows." Zhang Jin smiled, then turned around and sat down behind the low table, and chatted with Itocheng without any match.

After a quarter of an hour or so, there were gradually more people in the room.For example, the garrison general xx, the master book xx, the military marquis xx, the military cao xx, the officials xx, xx, xx, etc. at the address.Including more than a dozen people from the upper echelon of Jiaozhi, and then got to know each other well under the introduction of Zhang Jin.

Then, under the leadership of Zhang Jin, the familiar people moved to a larger house, drank and ate, and continued to deepen each other's feelings through banquets.

……

a day later.

"If Xicheng encounters difficulties in Cangwu, you can send people to send books to my place. Wherever I can help, I will help Xicheng solve it." Accompanied by several high-level officials in Jiaozhi, the leader Zhang Jin looked Looking kindly at Ito Cheng, he promised.

"Thank you for your love. I will not disappoint you!" Ito Cheng saluted.

"Everyone, I'm leaving." Then, Cheng Ito saluted the other people, and the others quickly returned the salute.

Then Ito Cheng straightened up.Turn over and ride astride a healthy horse, shake the rein to make a crisp sound of "snap".He took his servants and galloped towards Cangwu.

A few days later, Ito Cheng and his servants arrived in Guangxin County, the county seat of Cangwu County.

Cangwu County.It is located in the south of Changsha County and north of Guilin County.The territory under its jurisdiction is roughly equivalent to the east of Dupangling and Dayao Mountain in Guangxi, the west of Zhaoqing and Luoding in Guangdong, the south of Jiangyong and Jianghua in Hunan, the area of ​​Teng County in Guangxi, and the north of Xinyi in Guangdong.It is adjacent to Lingling and Guiyang, surrounded by Yulin, Hepu and Hainan counties.It has six counties under its jurisdiction, namely Guangxin County and Xiemu County, Gaoyao County, Fengyang County, Duanxi County, and Zhangping County, which was newly added in the 14th year of Emperor Yongping of the Han Ming Dynasty. Unfortunately, the territory is mostly forests and hills, and the people in the mountains are flooded, and there is a danger of going out of the mountains for a long time, and if Cao Cao rises in the later period, it will be the forefront of the war with Jingzhou, where the soldiers are at the forefront.

Ito Cheng and his servants drove straight and came to the county government office.

"Who is here?" A soldier-like man asked loudly.

"Go and ask your lord to come out, and say that the new prefect has arrived." The servant sat on the horse and looked down at the soldier and said.

The latter was startled when he heard the words, regardless of whether it was true or not, he hurried into the yamen to call for your lord.

In just two or three minutes, a middle-aged man with dark Hanfu, thin body, dark skin, and a small beard under his chin came out of the yamen.And he was followed by the soldiers who just went in to report.

"My lord, it's them." The soldier said quickly.

"Sir, you said that you are the new prefect, do you have evidence." The man looked up and down Ito Cheng, and saw that the clothes the other party was wearing, the horse he was riding, the weapon around his waist, and the shoes on his feet were all different. After using the things that ordinary people used, I immediately believed it in my heart, and hurriedly stepped forward and said politely.

Ito Cheng, who got off his horse at the right time, smiled slightly, said "of course there is", and took out the imperial decree from his arms and handed it to the other party.The latter took it respectfully, and carefully unfolded the imperial decree to examine it.

Sure enough, after a while, the man's expression changed, and he saluted and said, "My subordinate Guangxin county captain, Zhao Xin, has met your lord."

Ito Cheng nodded, as he had accepted the ceremony, raised his head and chest, and walked into the county office.

"Go and inform Master Zhou and Master Zhang to come to the county government quickly." Xin Zhao didn't dare to hesitate when he saw this, he quickly gave orders to the soldiers around him in a low voice, and quickly chased after Cheng Ito, to serve the newcomer Shangguan leads the way.

After three turns and two turns, a group of people came to the back hall of the county government.

"Is Lieutenant Zhao a local?" Ito Cheng, who sat down on the main seat, asked in a low voice.

"Yes." Xin Zhao's heart tightened when he heard the words, and he quickly replied.

"Then you must be familiar with the situation in this county?" Ito Cheng raised his eyebrows.

"Know a thing or two." Xin Zhao replied with a more cautious expression.

"Okay, please tell me about the situation in Cangwu County, County Captain Zhao." Itocheng said softly.

"Yes." Zhao Xingong replied, and then opened his mouth to talk about the situation in Cangwu County.

And through Zhao Xin's narration, Ito Cheng also quickly got a general understanding of the distribution of forces in Cangwu County.For example, Cheng Ito now knows that there are several families in Cangwu, and what kind of connection those families have with the people in the government. Some officials are from the family, the status of officials in each county, the status of the county, and The population of soldiers owned by each county kept him from being blinded.

After more than ten minutes like this, accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, two men in official uniforms, one tall, one short, one fat and one thin, walked in quickly from the door.

"My subordinate Zhou Dynasty (Zhang Li) will pay my respects to the prefect." Seeing Ito Cheng who was sitting high on the main seat, the two people who entered the room quickly stopped and bowed.

According to Zhao Xin, he was from Jingzhou, 46 years old, and currently serves as the magistrate of Guangxin County.Zhang Li, styled Renchao (zhao), was born in Yulin County, Jiaozhi. He was 38 years old and was born in a family. He is currently the county magistrate.

"Get up." Ito Cheng said quietly.

The two straightened up quickly.But before they could see Ito Cheng's face clearly, two dazzling rays of light instantly shot into the eyes of them, as well as Xin Zhao, who was drinking bad food next to him.

"My lord." A moment later, the three of them came back to their senses and shouted respectfully to Ito Cheng.It looked like a servant of this era saw the master of the master's house.

"Xin Zhao, go and gather all the soldiers in the county." Ito Cheng, who controlled the three of them with hypnotism, ordered immediately without being pretentious.

"Yes." Xin Zhao accepted the order, turned around and exited the back hall.

"Zhou Chao, Zhang Li, go and invite me the heads of all the families in the county." Itocheng ordered again.

"Yes." The two complied and quickly exited the room.

"The road of meritorious hegemony starts from this small Guangxin County." Ito Cheng, who watched the three go away, whispered to himself.

……

"Master." At the same time, in the Zhao family in Guangxin County, a man who looked like a servant rushed into the house and shouted.

The Zhao family, the largest family in Guangxin County, is not because they are the strongest among all the families, but because someone in their family is working in the government.And that person is none other than Zhao Xin, the county lieutenant in charge of soldiers and security in a county, and he is the son of the Patriarch of the Zhao family.

"What's the matter?" The old man sitting in the main room frowned slightly and said with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"I heard from people in the county government office that the new prefect of Cangwu County has arrived." The man quickly replied.

"Is this true!?" The old man's complexion changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked.

"It should be true. It is said that the man was brought into the county government office by the eldest son himself." The man replied.

Then at this moment, another man walked into the house quickly.

"Master, the county magistrate Zhou is here." The man reported respectfully. (To be continued..)
