Turbulent Times Chapter 878: Wang Junlin, Prefect of Fanyang County
(Thank you very much for the generous support and monthly ticket support of 'Smoldering Pot'.)
For example, officials at the county level can be received by the corresponding officials, and if the prefect of the county level passes by, the prefect of the local county will come forward to receive him hospitablely, but Li Yuan also warmly welcomes officials who are younger than him. And there will also be a gift money, which can be said to be a mess of being a human being.
Li Xuanba, the third son of the Li family sitting next to him, is now twelve years old. He is very thin, his face is like yellow paper, and his blood is obviously lacking. His mother conceived Li Shimin just after giving birth. So it's kind of flawed. He was even only half a head taller than Li Yuanji, who was five years younger than him, but this was mainly because Li Yuanji was tall and strong, with dark skin, and seemed to be full of strength. He was clearly a talented martial artist.
Beside Li Xuanba is a thirteen-year-old girl with a heroic look in her eyes. She is the eldest daughter of Li Yuan, Li Xiuning, who is staring out of the window with her chin in her hands, as if she didn't hear what her younger brother said. .
The last one is thirteen-year-old Li Shimin, with a strong figure and handsome appearance, dressed in a white satin brocade robe, a small golden crown on his head, and black leather boots on his feet, with piercing eyes.
At this time, Li Xuanba yawned and said indifferently: "Fourth brother, every month there are officials passing through Loufan County, and Daddy will entertain them. What's the matter?"
Li Shimin didn't speak, but he was a little curious because he knew that since his younger brother Li Yuanji said that, it meant that the prefect must be something special, but he didn't ask, because he knew that Li Yuanji would rush to say it by himself from.
Sure enough, Li Yuanji glanced at his brother Li Xuanba who was five years older than him with disdain, and then said with some joy: "This prefect is a famous poisonous general, who is the poisonous general, do you know?" Right! It’s the legendary poison general who drank human blood every day and poisoned tens of thousands of Turkic people with a bucket of water. I can’t remember the name.”
"Idiot, the poisonous general is Qin Angong, named Wang Junlin, but I heard that he is the chief commander of the Blue Yiwei Mansion, how could he go to be the prefect of a certain county in the east!" Waking up from a daze, he flicked Li Yuanji in the head casually, and said with a smile.
"I'm not an idiot, but third brother is an idiot." Li Yuanji was unhappy, pointing at Li Xuanba and said.
"Fourth brother, don't be rude to your third brother." Li Shimin, who had been silent all this time, scolded.
Because of his young age, Li Yuanji was the most loved by his mother. He was not afraid of Li Shimin at all. He made a face at Li Shimin and ran out to play by himself. Li, don't care.

"From Daxing City to Fanyang County to take office, you should go through Hedong, Liyang, Jibei, Linzi, all the way to Fanyang. Why did the prefect of Fanyang County go from our Loufan County? And Tang Guogong actually met him personally. Welcome, you must know that when the prefect of Jiangdu County passed by our Loufan County last month, Tang Guogong only sent his eldest son to greet him at the city gate."
"You don't know this, the prefect who is welcoming you today is no ordinary prefect."
"Oh! Could there be something special about this prefect today? Could it be that he is a direct descendant of the Li clan in Longxi?"
"That's not true, it's just that today's characters are really special, and they are the only ones in the whole world."
…
…
At noon, Li Yuan, the prefect of Loufan County, led some officials to wait in person at the south gate of Peixian County. Behind him, the officials and the people of the county were whispering and discussing in secret.
The doubts in everyone's hearts also exist in Li Yuan and his eldest son Li Jiancheng who is standing next to him. It is Donglai County in Chongzhou, and to the west is Boling County in Chongzhou.
It is one of the easternmost counties of the Sui Empire, and it has a large population, more than 100,000 households, with a population of 700,000 to 800,000! Although it is not comparable to Shangluo, Jiangdu, Linzi and other super-large counties with a population of more than one million, it is still considered a large county. The population is more than five or six times that of Zhangye County where Wang Junlin once stayed!
Furthermore, Fanyang County’s economy is also good. It is rich in mountains and seas, rich in salt and iron. Aristocratic families dominate, even the county and county governments have to look at the face of the powerful family to do things. Although Li Yuan is thousands of miles away in Loufan County, he has heard a little about the affairs of Fanyang County.
"Because of this, my cousin sent strong men like Wang Junlin to govern. Perhaps in my cousin's eyes, governing Loufan County is secondary, and the real purpose is to clean up Fanyang Lu family for him, right? ..." Li Yuan thought so.
Although there is no news these days, Wang Junlin's reputation is too great, and there are many things that can shock the world. According to word of mouth, Li Yuan knows all about Wang Junlin's deeds, let alone their Li family. The relationship between Zonglongxi Li's family and this Qin Angong is a bit complicated!
In short, in the impression of Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng and his son, Wang Junlin is definitely not to be offended, and he is the kind of person who will make friends with all his strength.
While thinking about it, Xiao Shi, who was sent to wait ten miles away, galloped back out of breath, and shouted loudly as soon as he dismounted: "Master Qin Angong, governor of Fanyang County, is less than two miles away from the west gate! "
Except for Li Yuan, the others hurriedly arranged their clothes, and Li Jiancheng ordered people to prepare drinks to cleanse the dust.
Although Li Yuan is no lower than Wang Junlin regardless of his official position or title, and he is a veteran nobleman and a relative of the emperor. In terms of seniority, he is even much higher than Wang Junlin. No matter what, Wang Junlin has nothing to do with Li Yuan , there is no need to be so polite and enthusiastic.
But Li Yuan is well informed and knows that Wang Junlin is the emperor's favorite minister and the founder of the Blue Yiwei Mansion. The influence of Weifu is definitely great.
Of course, another reason is that Wang Junlin's illustrious deeds have given him an extremely vicious reputation. Even Li Yuan doesn't want to have a grudge against such a vicious person for no reason. What's more, based on some ambitions deep in his heart, Li Yuan intends to be kind to others, and tries to accept and make friends with heroes in the world. How can a top figure in the world like Wang Junlin miss it.
Not long after, a hundred knights appeared on the road. They were all riding horses from the Western Regions. He knew that this was not the guard of an ordinary family.
The knights galloped to the city gate and left and right, revealing the convoy behind, either carrying goods or entourages, the largest of which was a four-wheeled carriage that Li Yuan had never seen before, with a purple hood and barriers on both sides Painted in red, this is the color that only officials of the fourth rank and above in the imperial court can use.
