Chapter 112 Set off back to town
As the sun was setting, outside the east gate of Biancheng County, Zhang Tie, riding on a heavy gray grassland horse, looked at Biancheng County, turned around and steered the horse towards the distance.

"Biancheng County, I will be back soon."

Just when Zhang Tie set off to return to Liexue Town.Far away from the east gate of Beicheng, a man wearing a bamboo hat led a white horse and entered the capital of Yan Kingdom—Beicheng just before the city gate was about to close.

"Beicheng, I'm back again."

The man with the bamboo hat paid the money and entered the city gate. He raised his head, and through the bamboo hat, he could see a face with ears higher than eyebrows, eyebrows longer than eyes, nose straight and bright.It's just that there is some dust at this time, obviously they were in a hurry along the way, this person is none other than Guo Sheng Guo Nanshu, the servant of Bo Guo Mingjian, the official Biancheng county lord.

Guo Sheng walked all the way, walking on the street, when he passed an inn, Guo Sheng frowned and looked at the gray body, he was about to take a step, and wanted to go to the inn to clean up first.

Then as soon as he took a step, Guo Sheng withdrew his feet and continued to walk forward, "It's not enough now, it's been so many days, and I'm not in a hurry, I'd better send the letter to Mr. He and talk about it."

Thinking of the important task entrusted to him by the master, Guo Sheng had no choice but to let go of the desire to take a bath in his heart, led the horse, and walked towards his target point.

Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door, which was particularly loud at dusk.

Guo Sheng led the horse and stood in front of the back door of a courtyard, waiting quietly for the people in the courtyard to come to open the door. On a tree not far behind him, there were two patrolling police officers.

The eyes of the two policemen stared at Guo Sheng from time to time, their bodies seemed to be relaxed, but in fact, as long as Guo Sheng made any abnormal movements, the two could quickly rush to Guo Sheng.

Shortly after the knock on the door, footsteps came from the courtyard.

squeak!
The small door was slowly opened from the inside. After an hour and a half of opening, the small door stopped opening, and a human head protruded from the crack of the door.

The person with the head exposed was very cautious, first looked left and right, then turned his wrinkled face to Guo Sheng, stared at Guo Sheng for a while, and then opened the small door completely, revealing his short body , to give way to Guo Sheng, who obviously knew Guo Sheng.

Guo Sheng led the horse into the courtyard. He knew that there was a small stable in the courtyard by the back door, which was specially built. As for the reason, it is unknown.

The short old man glanced at the two policemen leaning against the tree in the distance, smiled, nodded, and then closed the small door.

The two detectives leaning on the tree also nodded to the old man, expressionless, and continued to patrol after the small door was closed.

As soon as the door was closed, the little old man's face suddenly changed, and he whispered to Guo Sheng: "Nanshu, why are you here? Is there something wrong with Biancheng County?"

The little old man's eyes are not usually vicious. From Guo Sheng's attire, he guessed that Guo Sheng must be in a hurry, otherwise he wouldn't come to the door when it was getting dark, and he still didn't dress up, with a dusty look. sloppy look.

Guo Sheng nodded heavily, and took out the letter from Guo Mingjian from his pocket, "Yes, uncle, seven days ago in the evening, the newly appointed county magistrate appeared in Biancheng County, and I think he has already taken office now."

"This is a letter written by the master, let me hand it to Mr. He personally."

"The new magistrate of Biancheng County!"

The old man had a shocked expression on his face, his body froze suddenly, and he felt a cold current hit his body and mind.

"How is it possible, the adults have already sent people!"

The old man covered his mouth and didn't say the rest, which made Guo Sheng on the side look puzzled, but he didn't want to ask more.

Thinking of the consequences if the new county magistrate finds out the clues, the old man's heart will be even colder and colder. Suppressing the coldness in his heart, the old man shakes himself up, points to a big tree in the courtyard, and faces Guo Sheng. Said.

"Let the horses be tied to that tree first. I'll take you to see the adults. Remember not to ask or read more later. You must ask and read less. Remember?"

The old man's reminder made Guo Sheng's heart feel a little hot, knowing that it was about him, he nodded, tied the white horse to the tree, and followed the old man towards the inner courtyard.

All the way forward, it can only be said that the courtyard of the officials in Beicheng is countless times better than the backyard of the county government in Biancheng County in terms of size and decoration.

The two entered a small courtyard and came to a study room. The old man knocked lightly on the door first.

"Who?"

An inquiry came from the room, and the voice seemed very tired.

"Master, Guo Sheng in Biancheng County has something urgent to see."

The little old man faced the door and responded in a low voice, which would not appear noisy, but also be able to be heard clearly by the people in the room.

"Biancheng County? Guo Sheng? Let him in."

Hearing this, the little old man slowly opened the door of the study room and recruited Guo Sheng. After Guo Sheng came, he gestured to the house with his eyes, moved his lips slightly, and reminded in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them. : "Remember, look less, ask less."

Guo Sheng nodded solemnly, and walked towards the house with heavy steps. After Guo Sheng walked in, the little old man closed the door gently again and guarded outside the study.

Snapped!
"You mean the magistrate of Biancheng County has already taken office?!"

The book fell to the ground with a slight sound, and He Kun grabbed Guo Sheng's shoulders, with veins popping out of his hands, and asked Guo Sheng in disbelief.

Enduring the pain in the shoulders on both sides, Guo Sheng nodded, and after saying it again, he raised his right hand with difficulty and handed over the letter written by Guo Mingjian.

"My lord, this is a letter from my uncle."

He Kun let go of the hands that were holding Guo Sheng's shoulders, frowning, took the envelope from Guo Sheng's hand, and walked to the desk.

With the help of the light, he first checked the seal of the letter, and after confirming that it was complete, he tore off the sealing paint, pulled out the envelope, and read the contents of the letter.

Guo Sheng on the side lowered his head firmly, and put his hands behind his back unconsciously, so as to relieve the pain in his arms, "Sure enough, he was born as a general. This strength is not small. Hiss, it really hurts."

After a while, He Kun, who had read the letter, frowned slightly, and instead of talking about the contents of the letter, he looked Guo Sheng up and down, and asked him, "Are you Guo Zhengpeng's nephew?"

Guo Sheng, who had lowered his head, heard the words, but still lowered his head and replied: "Yes, my lord, Guo Zhengpeng is my uncle, and he took me to help Guo Mingjian."

He Kun looked at Guo Sheng with his head down and thought for a while, then sat on the chair, "I've read the letter, you stay at my house for a few days, and I'll let you send the letter back when the time comes."

Without waiting for Guo Sheng to answer, He Kun shouted directly to the door: "Zhengpeng, take your nephew to find a guest room at random, he will rest here for a few days, you take him more these days."

"Good sir."

Guo Zhengpeng, who had been guarding the door all the time, pushed open the door, stood at the door, and shouted to Guo Sheng, who lowered his head, "Nan Shu, let's go."

After Guo Zhengpeng took Guo Sheng away, He Kun picked up the letter on the table again, put it back into the envelope, and then hurried out of the study with his arms in his arms.

"This matter has to be told to Mr. Xiang immediately."
