Chapter 238 The newly arrived county magistrate

"Liu Wuhen?!" Before he could enter the Luo family's courtyard, Su Chenxi saw Liu Wuhen eating leisurely in the courtyard.

A while ago, when I was learning Liu's calligraphy from Liu Yi, I stayed at Lao Liu's house all day long and got along well with the people and things from Lao Liu's family. She has ridden this donkey called "Liu Wuhen".

A donkey with no worse running speed than a horse can be remembered by walking it once, and it was a very deep impression on Su Chenxi.

"Young Master, who is Liu Wuhen? There is no one in this courtyard?" Bajiao looked at their lady strangely, then looked at the dilapidated and empty courtyard in front of her, and asked Su Chenxi softly.

"Who told you that Liu Wuhen is a human? No, have you seen the white donkey eating there? It is Liu Wuhen." Su Chenxi stretched out her white jade hand, pointed at Liu Wuhen with snow-white hair in the yard, and explained to Bajiao softly: "It is Mr. Liu's special mount. It runs faster than an ordinary strong horse. Mr. Liu said that Liu Wuhen is a hundred-mile donkey that is invincible, a rare divine horse."

Although I don’t know why Liu Wuhen was left here, Su Chenxi’s mood was obviously much better when he saw it. This is also considered to be meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

At this time, Liu Wuhen seemed to feel something, turned his head to look at the door. After seeing Su Chenxi, he raised his head, sniffed at Su Chenxi happily, and shouted loudly. If there weren't a rope that was tugging around in his neck, it would have jogged over and had a good time with Su Chenxi, his old friend.

"Wow, Master, look at it, it seems to know you," Bajiao also pointed at Liu Wuhen, who was nodding at them, and shouted in fuss.

"Well," Su Chenxi nodded with a chuckle. She didn't think there was anything wrong with this. It was normal that it could recognize her after hanging out with Liu Wuhen for so long.

Just as he wanted Bajiao to open his mouth to shout, a young man in green clothes walked out of a side room in the yard. He thought that he had heard Liu Wuhen's cry and wanted to find out what was going on. When he saw Su Chenxi standing at the door, he was obviously stunned for a moment, quickly tidied up his clothes, and came out.

"This young man has invited you, I wonder if you two?" The young man in green opened the door and stood at the door and bowed to Su Chenxi and asked.

"Chang'an Su Chen, this young master is polite," Su Chen bowed to the young man and said softly: "Dare you ask this young master, this is Luo Mansion, is there a young master Luo Binwang beside him?"

"It turns out to be Mr. Su, and Xiao Ke is Luo Binwang," Luo Binwang bowed and invited Su Chen and the others into the yard, and closed the door. Although the Luo Mansion has taken back the fields and has some money in his hand, he only cares about three meals. Like those housekeepers, they can't afford to invite them, and they have to do everything themselves.

"The humid house is simple, so Mr. Su laughs. Please come in!" Luo Binwang smiled and reached out to invite Su Chenxi's master and servant into the house. Unexpectedly, after Su Chenxi entered the yard, he actually went straight to his master's donkey.

Just as he wanted to make a message to remind the donkey at home that no one could get close to him, he saw Liu Wuhen lowering his head and arching around Su Chen, and from time to time he stuck out his tongue to lick Su Chen's little hand. He looked even more intimate than when facing Luo Binwang.

This young master Su Chen must be his master's old friend.

If he is so familiar with Liu Wuhen, his relationship with his master is naturally extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Luo Binwang walked forward with a chuckling, reached out to touch Liu Wuhen's silver hair, and said, "It can be seen that Wuhen likes Mr. Su very much. Has Mr. Su seen Wuhen before?"

"When I was learning calligraphy with Mr. Liu in Sanyuan, I had played with Wuhen for a while," Su Chenxi let Liu Wuhen lick her hands and touched its chin and said, "I don't want to see it for more than a month, and it is much more powerful than before."

"Oh? Mr. Su has also practiced calligraphy with his master?" Luo Binwang was puzzled. Has the master ever accepted another disciple? Why have he never heard from his master before?

"Haha, it's a pity that there is only one month. Su is not as lucky as Mr. Luo. Mr. Liu did not put Su in the door. It is normal that Mr. Luo didn't listen to Mr. Luo's mention." Su Chenxi smiled bitterly and explained to Luo Binwang softly.

"So that's it, but since that's the case, Brother Su Chen is not an outsider. Let's go to the inner room to talk." Luo Binwang patted Liu Wuhen's donkey head and enthusiastically invited Su Chenxi, a senior brother who was not a senior brother, to sit in the room.

"Please visitor brother!" Su Chenxi reached out to ask Luo Binwang to go first, then led Bajiao to follow Luo Binwang and entered the living room.

The two sides were separated by the host and the host, and Xiao Shutong Bajiao stood closely behind Su Chenxi.

After pouring a cup of tea for Su Chenxi himself, Luo Binwang sat down, looked at Su Chenxi with a smile, and asked softly: "I don't know if Brother Su Chen is here to find me today, but what are the instructions? Brother Su Chen is just talking about it."

"My tourist brother is so serious. Su passed by Wushang. When he heard that Mr. Liu had a good disciple here, he felt something, so he came to make friends with his tourist brother. In addition, Mr. Su also wanted to discuss calligraphy with his tourist brother again, so that he could win Mr. Liu's favor and be accepted as his disciple. I think that my tourist brother's attainment in calligraphy must be extraordinary. Please don't refuse." Su Chenxi put down the tea bowl and told Luo Binwang softly about her purpose.

Su Chenxi was very curious about being able to win someone Liu Yi valued.

"This," Luo Binwang smiled unnaturally when he heard this. He could see that Su Chenxi's words were out of truth, and there was no sign of ridicule or embarrassing him.

However, his handwriting was really, Luo Binwang looked at Su Chenxi and said, "Brother Su Chen, I'd better not want this competition. I'm sure that I've just learned from my master for a few days, and my fonts are still a bit inappropriate. Why don't we compare them in the future?"

"Old Zhong, go and prepare some generous gifts for me. I will go to Gutian Village later!" Cheng Chumo leaned on the chair in the hall, crossed his legs, and shouted to his old butler Cheng Zhong, "Old Cheng, I want to go and meet this Liu Yi for a while. You dare to provoke Hou Junji's angry master like this, don't miss it, hahaha..."

When he thought of Wu Zuijian's right leg, Cheng Chumo was happy from the bottom of his heart. He admired Liu Yi's methods even more. It was not difficult to break a leg by a person, but it was really not easy to break a leg by a person, especially a general with superb martial arts.

He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and remembered the rumors that Hou Junji had been greedy for military pay and robbed the property of Tuyuhun nobles that had suddenly spread in Chang'an City. Cheng Chumo was even more happy. It was thought that this was also done by Liu Yi. To a certain extent, Liu Yi was still a villain.

However, Cheng Chumo likes such a villain.

"But, the old man said that in Sanyuan, he would let the master be more cautious. The master had just taken office and had not yet gained a foothold in Sanyuan. Should we go to visit the gentry and wealthy families in Sanyuan first? What will we go to tomorrow at Liuyi Mansion?" Cheng Zhong whispered and reminded that in Sanyuan, although Liuyi is famous, his power and status are far less than those of the four major families, such as Gongsun Mansion, Du Mansion, Zhao Mansion and Yang Mansion.

According to common sense, the new county magistrate should visit these four households first.

"Where do you think the emperor asked me to come to Sanyuan for this county magistrate?" Cheng Chumo disagreed and waved his hand to order Cheng Zhong: "Just listen to me, let's go to Gutian Village first to see Liu Yi and see what kind of person he is. As for the wealthy families in Gongsun family, it's not too late to go there in the future. Haven't you seen me before?"

Cheng Chumo sat there steadily, and the emperor suddenly asked him to be the commander of the Imperial Guards and an officer to come to Sanyuan to be a civilian county magistrate. Isn’t this a joke? Even thinking about the storm that Wu Zuijian caused last time, he could guess the emperor’s intention, that the emperor wanted to protect Liu Yi.

If he remembered well, in another five or six days, Hou Laoer would go back to Chang'an from Tuyuhun. If Hou Laoer knew about Wu Zuijian's condition, God knew what he would do. There were still tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands.

Cheng Chumo licked his lips lightly, not caring about it. He wanted Hou Jun to gather and lead his troops to make trouble, avenge private revenge, and gather troops to cause trouble. That was a big crime.

"Uh, yes, lord." Cheng Zhong bent over and thought that with the friendship between their old master and the Gongsun family and the Du family, they would not say much.

When Cheng Zhong was out of the door, Cheng Chumo also stood up and returned to the inner room to change into casual clothes. He just took office today. This literati's official uniform was really awkward.

I heard that Liu Yi's martial arts skills are also good. Last time in Chang'an, even Feng Xiaoyi was not his opponent. If you find an opportunity, you must try it. Cheng Chushu tightened his sleeves on his wrist and thought in his heart.
