Li Wangyou waved his hand domineeringly: "Okay, that's it, I'm not used to drinking outside, so let me be the host, and invite Mingfu and you all to taste my cook's skills."

809 Marquis, can you stop doing this?

After Li Wangyou spoke like this, Shang Zimo, the magistrate of the county, and all the county government officials naturally did not dare to say more, and after pleading guilty again, they followed Li Wangyou's wishes.

In fact, whether it is Shang Zimo, the county magistrate, or the county magistrate of Huayin County, the officials in the third class and the sixth house, they are secretly cursing their mothers in their hearts.

It's not that he scolded Li Wangyou, but his resentment was directed towards Li Er who was sitting high on the throne in the Tai Chi Hall in Chang'an City.

To bring a great nobleman from the Tang Dynasty, a majestic founding magistrate, to a middle-level county like theirs, to be a magistrate, what a boring person must be, to do such an unreliable thing?

Especially Shang Zimo and the county magistrate, as the first and second in command of Huayin County, were even more speechless.

What the hell is that there is a county magistrate here, it is basically an ancestor.

Even if other senior officials of the court passed by Huayin County, they only stayed for a short time, but this master was their subordinate in name...

With such a status as a "subordinate", Shang Zimo felt that he was really smoking from his ancestral grave.

But others are emitting blue smoke, and his ancestral grave is probably emitting black smoke.

He is a county magistrate of the seventh rank, to put it mildly, when he arrives in Chang'an City, his status is probably not as good as that of the steward of the Hou Mansion, right?

Shang Zimo was right about this point, and even overestimated his own status.

Li Wangyou's old housekeeper Li Heng, even if he went to those princes' mansions, he could still sit in the hall.As for the officials of the third and fourth ranks in the court, they were even more polite when they saw Li Heng.

And if he, the seventh-rank county magistrate, went to Chang'an City, he might not even be able to enter the gates of the mansions of those third- and fourth-rank officials.

Just looking at the dozens of songs accompanied by Li Wangyou, and the group of Jinwu Guards with bright armor not far away, Shang Zimo and the county magistrate wanted to hug each other and cry.

So bullying!

However, whether it is Shang Zimo or the county magistrate, they have placed their positions and mentality quite correctly, that is, to serve the master in front of them wholeheartedly.

A group of people surrounded Li Wangyou's frame and went straight into Huayin County.

As for the hundred Jinwu Guards, they also entered the city and went straight to Zhechong Mansion in Huayin County.The order they received was to protect the safety of Hu County Marquis in Huayin County. If there was no order, they would stay in Huayin County for a long time until Li Wangyou returned to Chang'an.

Huayin County is a medium-sized county with a population of just over 2000 households, so the size of the county seat is not large.

However, Huayin County is the birthplace of the Yang family in the world. There is a saying that "the Yang family in the world comes from Huayin, and the Yang family in Huayin returns to the East Palace". Yang Jian, the former Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, was from Huayin.

Therefore, the small Huayin County seems to be a bit lively.

Li Wangyou dawdled on the road for a few days, but the steward of the Hou's mansion had already prepared the mansion for his husband.

A house of a local wealthy businessman was spotted by the steward of the Hou's Mansion, and without a word, he moved out overnight and sold the house to the Hou's Mansion of Hu County.

Of course, the management of the Hou Mansion is not a bullying person, and Li Wangyou has no shortage of copper coins, so according to the market price, he increased it by [-]%, which was enough for the wealthy businessman.

In the next few days, the four-wheeled carriages of Shunfeng Carriage Co., Ltd. went back and forth between Huayin County and Dingzhou Village in an endless stream, transporting various decorations and utensils to the Hou Mansion in Huayin County like ants moving house.

The beautiful boss even threw out a lot of copper coins, recruited hundreds of craftsmen from Chang'an City, and took them directly to Huayin County in a horse-drawn carriage to repair the house.

After rushing to work day and night, after Li Wangyou had enough of lingering on the official road, when he arrived in Huayin County, the Hou's Mansion in the county had been completely refurbished and ready in a few days.

The accompanying maids and most of the songs had already entered the city before Li Wangyou greeted Shang Zimo and others, and went to the mansion to prepare to go.

When Li Wangyou and his group arrived at his mansion in Huayin County, the mansion was already ready.

Shang Zimo, the county magistrate and the others looked at the brand-new mansion in front of them, and secretly clicked their tongues.

They were invited by the wealthy businessman to this mansion before, and they also came here as guests, but how could they have imagined that in just a few days, Nuo Da's mansion has completely changed.

On the newly painted Zhumen, there is a plaque on the top, with four gilt characters written "Huxian Houfu".

On both sides of the gate, there are guards of the Marquis Manor who are dressed in strong clothes and holding weapons, as if they are inaccessible to strangers.

However, Li Wangyou was very dissatisfied, and told Niu Wu: "I will ask someone to change this plaque later. I am now the county magistrate of Huayin County. What kind of Marquis do you write about? I am not afraid of being laughed at."

Niu Wu held back his laughter, and quickly nodded in agreement, but Shang Zimo and the others had weird expressions on their faces, and thought to themselves, who is so hard-nosed and dares to laugh at this old man?

Li Wangyou called everyone to enter the mansion, but heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the long street, everyone stopped and looked, but there were a few people in dark scarlet official uniforms riding horses, panting and hurrying over.

Li Wangyou didn't know the person who came, but Shang Zimo and the others did, but their expressions became more and more strange. There was no other reason. The group of officials who came were all the governors and officials of Huazhou.

Huayin County is under the jurisdiction of Huazhou, which is the central state of the Tang Dynasty, and the governor is an official position on the fourth rank.

Needless to say, even the governor of Huazhou got the news of the presence of the great god Huxian Hou, and hurriedly led Huazhou officials, big and small, to meet Li Wangyou, the "county lieutenant" of Huayin County...

Shang Zimo and the county magistrate next to him looked at each other, and they both saw the deep helplessness in each other's eyes.

The governor of Huazhou led the officials of Huazhou, big and small, approached, quickly rolled off his horse, and respectfully greeted Li Wangyou, and everyone exchanged greetings for a while.

Li Wangyou naturally knew the purpose of these officials' visit, so he didn't care. He just smiled and invited everyone to enter the mansion and take a seat in the lobby.

With his immediate boss around, Shang Zimo, the county magistrate, and others were directly squeezed to the back of the line. As for the exiled officials in the sixth room of the county government office, they could only shrink to a corner, not daring to show their air.

In the lobby, the maidservants of the Hou's mansion were dressed like flowers, and they kept bringing all kinds of food and wine, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

"Mingfu, why did you go so far away? Come, come and sit here." Li Wangyou greeted Shang Zimo kneeling in a corner of the lobby.

Shang Zimo squeezed out a smile uglier than crying: "No, no, you are welcome from the Shaofu. This place is very good, very good."

He still has eyesight, Li Wangyou is sitting next to him at the moment, but the governor of Huazhou, Chang Shi and other bigwigs, why is the county magistrate running to join in the fun?

Shang Zimo didn't dare to sit next to Li Wangyou because of his immediate superiors, Huazhou Governor and Chang Shi.But Li Wangyou didn't care so much, he got up and walked to Shang Zimo's side, and directly pulled him over.

"Hey, Ming Fu, you are my boss, how can you sit there? If it gets out, people will say that I don't understand etiquette?" Li Wangyou pressed Shang Zimo to his side.

As soon as he said this, Shang Zimo didn't dare to say anything else, he just looked at his side, the governor of Huazhou, Chang Shi and others sitting next to him, were about to break out in cold sweat.

Lord Hou, can you stop doing this?

When Shang Zimo was still mourning for himself in his heart, he saw a member of the Marquis from outside the hall hastily came to report: "Mr. Lang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the King of Yue are here to visit."

As soon as these words came out, the originally bustling lobby suddenly became quiet...

810 Feel like sitting on pins and needles

Li Wangyou was a little confused when he heard the words, why did Li Chengqian and Li Tai come here?

Immediately, a look of anger appeared on Li Wangyou's face: "Call the two of them in!"

When he said this, everyone in the lobby, including Huazhou governor and Chang Shi, became even more sluggish, and many people opened their mouths so much that they could almost stuff eggs.

It was shocking enough that the prince and His Royal Highness the King of Yue came to Huayin County in person. If this master didn't rush out to greet him, he would just use the word "call"?
