    After learning that Mrs. Wu was back and Xiang Nan sent a famous invitation asking for an audience, the prefect came to the inn in person, attracting people all over the street to watch.

    "This is Captain Xiang of the White Robe Army."

    "Does the White Robe Army know?"

    "When the young lady went to Yizhou to rescue King Zhao, it was thanks to their help."

    The officials who followed explained to the people that they heard that they had helped Mrs. Wu, and the people were even more enthusiastic. Xiang Nan was invited to go to the prefecture and gathered all the way, and many businessmen shouted to send wine and gifts.

    Fortunately for Chen Er, after all, the white-robed army in Huazhou is also popular wherever they go. This is the first time for the Xiang family's followers to see such a scene. They are excited and incredible. Seeing them walking with the prefect again  The young man felt familiar yet strange.

    "The young master has grown up." An older attendant sighed.

    They are the followers of the old master of the Xiang family. They treat the nephews and nephews in the family with a certain condescension. At this time, they have stopped being casual. The young master is now an adult and can take charge of the Xiang family on his own.

    The prefect invited Xiang Nan to a banquet in the government office, but Mrs. Wu did not show up.

    "Young madam, I know you are here." The magistrate patted his arm and said enthusiastically and excitedly, "Immediately told him about Xiang Duwei's great kindness and asked us to entertain him well. Speaking of which, Xiang Duwei is a Xuanwu Taoist, so he can recognize Yun  Mr. Kuang from An Mansion?"

    "I'm lucky enough to have seen him once," Xiang Nan replied.

    The prefect sighed: "I wonder how he is now?"

    Xiang Nan happened to know the answer, and other officials and generals also asked about the people they knew. Some Xiang Nan knew and some did not know. After some exchanges, some were still holding on, some had defected to thieves, and some had died.  Everyone sighed with joy and sorrow, and drank more and more wine. When Xiang Nan woke up again, it was noon the next day.

    "Young Master, the prefect sent the cook from the Yamen to make some sobering soup for the Young Master."

    "The young master is still young after all, and he can't drink well."

    "Sixth Master's drinking capacity is not good either. I still remember that he was carried back after drinking too much."

    The attendants of the Xiang family were asking and joking lively in front of the bed.

    Xiang Nan was lying on the bed and listening with a smile, looking at the roof of the tent. He drank too much, but he was still not unconscious. The main reason was that he could see that Madam Wu Shao would not come, and these people did not want him to drink too much.  When asking Mrs. Wu about anything, just follow the trend.

    "Master." Chen Er came in from outside, "When will we leave?"

    Xiang Nan sat up from the bed and beckoned: "You're here just in time, go and deliver a famous postcard to Mrs. Wu for me."

    Chen Er stared: "You still want to give it away?"

    The followers of the Xiang family were also a little surprised: "Young Master still wants to see Mrs. Wu?"

    Yesterday the prefect of Guangzhou Prefecture hosted a banquet in person, which was equivalent to Mrs. Wu¡¯s banquet. Xiang Nan wanted to make good friends with Guangzhou Prefecture and the Zhenwu Army. This was enough.

    " Mrs. Wu is a family member of Captain Wu of the Zhenwu Army. She is not a government official or a general. Why do you want to see her?

    Xiang Nan washed his face with water. The young man's face was full of energy and there was no trace of hangover. He sat down at the desk and wrote: "It's because of Mrs. Wu that the Guangzhou Prefecture treats you so grandly. I should express my gratitude." He then ordered his entourage, "  You go and buy some gifts."

    That¡¯s right. The followers of the Xiang family nodded in agreement. The market in Guangzhou Prefecture was very prosperous, and they bought it quickly.

    ¡°There are actually specialties from our Taiyuan Prefecture.¡± The attendant said in surprise, ¡°And it¡¯s not an old stock.¡±

    It¡¯s okay before, but now there are rebels in the capital separating Taiyuan Prefecture and Huainan Road.

    "Businessmen are really not afraid of death." Chen Er shook his head, "They should be allowed to fight."

    Xiang Nan smiled and said: "There are enough interests to attract them, so they are not afraid of death." He shook his head again, "They only care about interests." He handed the letter and name card to Chen Er, "Send it over."

    ?¡­

    ?¡­

    "Want to thank me?" Li Minglou asked, looking at the prefect who was holding the name card.

    The prefect responded and handed over the name card and letter. The name card and letter were taken by Yuanji first, opened and inspected, and then handed over to Li Minglou.

    The letter was still as short as the previous one, but Li Minglou smiled after reading it. Now that Li Minglou had uncovered his face, the prefect was a little dazed when he saw this smile. It was so clear and gorgeous that he once again felt that Mrs. Wu was covering her face.  It's a smart move.

    "Sir, take a look."

    Li Minglou¡¯s voice brought the magistrate back to his senses. The magistrate hurriedly reached out to take it, thinking that the young madam would have to show him the private messages of the grandpa. If there was anything about this boy,With the right words, he immediately kicked the boy out of Huainan Road. The young lady was just like his daughter, and no one could think of tarnishing her reputation.

    There were only a few lines in the letter. The magistrate read it three or four times before he understood it clearly. He raised his head and said, "This time I am not saying thank you, but praising the young lady."

    The previous letter said that he was thanking the Zhenwu Army for saving lives during the chaos. Yesterday, he expressed his gratitude to him on behalf of the Zhenwu Army of Guangzhou Prefecture. Today, Xiang Nan praised the young lady for her great merits to the common people. Normally,  It is said that the person who is praised should express his gratitude in person.

    Li Minglou said to Yuan Ji: "Please arrange for someone to thank him for me."

    Yuan Ji responded, and Li Minglou looked at the magistrate again: "This is not my great merit. It's just that my mother-in-law and I encountered a disaster on the road. My mother-in-law was frightened and wanted to do more to comfort her. What's more, these things are done by adults.  Thank you for your hard work, my mother-in-law and I are a stay-at-home woman and the other is ill. We are only a handful of people, so I don¡¯t dare to claim this merit." After saying this, he smiled and said, "This merit can only be received by the prefect."

    So he could only express his thanks. The magistrate laughed and said, "The great merit of the Young Madam and Madam is that they set foot on our Huainan Road, so I will receive the other merits."

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? could say good-bye, could not leave, left the inner house, and returned to the front hall, the magistrate Heyue¡¯s expression became vicious, and he called out to his trusted officials.

    "Come on, come on, this little brat." He rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll play with him like this."

    Xiang Nan received a banquet again. This time, in addition to the officials of the yamen, there was also an old servant of Madam Wu. The old servant was articulate and eloquent. He thanked Xiang Nan repeatedly for praising his young lady, and then told the prefect and others.  The officers and generals expressed their gratitude. It was the concerted efforts of the officers and generals of Gwangju Prefecture that made this possible.

    The prefect felt ashamed and asked about what he saw and heard along the way. Xiang Nan described the refugee disasters in the troubled times in the places he passed, and praised the paradise in Gwangju Prefecture. The prefects were sad and happy at the same time.

    "Mr. Xiang, thank you for seeing this." The magistrate took Xiang Nan's hand and said, "To be honest, we are in extremely difficult times."

    It tells how it was besieged and the city was almost destroyed.

    "The observation envoy has surrendered to the enemy with tens of thousands of troops. The sky in our Huainan Road collapsed and hit me on the head. What can I do? We can only stand up with broken teeth and blood."

    "There are more and more victims of the disaster. They are all ordinary people. The flesh on the palms and backs of their hands is so small. How can we turn them away?"

    "Do you know how much it costs? Not to mention other things, the rice used to make porridge every day is not rice, but silver, which can't be bought yet."

    ¡°Those straw huts are not built by us in a crude way. It would be really distressing if they were crude. Not to mention bricks and stones, there is not even wood.¡±

    ¡°We finally had no choice but to demolish many official posts.¡±

    The more the magistrate talked, the more excited he became. Mrs. Wu's old servant told an emotional story about how Guangzhou Prefecture resettled the refugees. It rained heavily in the summer and snowed heavily in the winter. The magistrate held Xiang Nan's hand and started crying, and the officials and generals present also followed suit.  shed tears.

    "Mr. Xiang, we really don't ask for any great merit. As long as you can see it and someone can see it, it's worth it no matter how hard and tired we are."

    This time Xiang Nan was not drunk. All the officers and generals at the banquet were drunk

    There was a splashing sound, and the cold winter water splashed on his face. Xiang Nan took a deep breath and raised his head.

    "What about today? Are you going yet?" Chen Er passed the handkerchief to the side and taunted him with a curled lip.

    "Of course, how about we call it Sangu Maolu?" Xiang Nan wiped the cold water off his face and laughed, threw the towel to Chen Er, walked to the desk to pick up a pen, his laughter turned into a smile that condensed on his lips, "  Let¡¯s see how she sends me off this time.¡±

    The prefect stood here in Li Minglou holding the post with an angry expression.

    "These rich kids are like this, they are just scoundrels inside." He said, "Young Madam, I will tie him up and throw him out of Guangzhou Prefecture. What about the White Robe Army, Huazhou, Xuanwu Dao, Taiyuan Prefecture, etc.  Am I, Huainan Road, Guangzhou Prefecture, still afraid of them?"

    Yuanji took the post and checked it before handing it to her.

    What on earth does this guy want to do?  Li Minglou frowned and opened the letter. This time the letter was shorter than the previous two, with only a few words.

    Mrs. Wu is in danger.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
