Chapter 280

Yuzhang County can only be regarded as a lower-middle-level county, with three counties and a population of about 1 households.

This county is not outstanding in the southeast generation, it can only be regarded as an ordinary county, but no one thought that there are two mysterious organizations hidden in this ordinary county.

If it wasn't for the serious floods in the Jiangnan generation, perhaps the imperial court would not have been able to detect the organization 'Nanliang Hui'.

"My lord, Yuzhang County is ahead."

Yuzhang County is the county seat of Yuzhang County.

Following the direction Nan Jiyun pointed, Jiang Chengxiao pulled the reins, stopped the horse, put up the curtain with his hands, and looked into the distance.

A medium-sized city slowly came into view, and there were more pedestrians on the official road.

After all, Mao'er didn't follow her, but before leaving, Jiang Chengxiao had told her grandson Qingyi to pay attention to Luo'er, and if necessary, she could take Luo'er into the county palace.

A group of people found an inn after entering the city, and changed into ordinary clothes. They didn't look like high-ranking officials, but rather like children from rich families who came out to study.

To some extent, Jiang Chengxiao and his group are all from the north. This is the first time they came to the south. Apart from feeling a little hotter, the biggest difference should be that everyone here speaks Wuyue dialect.

The kind that I can't understand at all!

But Jiang Chengxiao wasn't very worried, firstly, there were people in their team who understood dialects, and secondly, he didn't intend to take matters seriously this time when he went south.

First of all, with the cooperation of the inner guard secretly, when the inner guard gave him the news, he took the soldiers who had quietly entered the city to fight.

Secondly, if the inner guard's news is not true and he fails in the end, he is not the only one who is unlucky, so what is he afraid of.

In the end, he didn't want to offend the 'Nanliang Association' here.

Although he doesn't know much about things in the south, he is not a fool. What kind of organization should the emperor be afraid of?

Furthermore, this matter itself is worthy of scrutiny, because the Nanliang Society was obviously not established in the past two years, otherwise the emperor would not be so afraid.

So here comes the problem. The Nanliang Society, which has been established for a long time, was only recently discovered by the emperor's inner guards.

what does this mean?
If he acts recklessly here, whether he can escape is really a matter of two opinions.

After all, it is a small town, and the streets are not particularly lively, so the group loses interest after shopping for half a stick of incense.

Considering that they stayed in the imperial capital before, the scale of this place is really unattractive.

"My lord, the county government is ahead."

Nan Jiyun stood beside Jiang Chengxiao, pointing to a building ahead.

When I got closer, I realized that the county office looked quite old.

"who?"

The guard came up and blocked Jiang Chengxiao's way.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled lightly, cupped his hands and said, "Dare to ask the guard, is the county guard here called Xiao Tong?"

The guard was immediately annoyed. This man looked like a well-educated rich man, but he called the county magistrate by his first name, which was really a little bit of etiquette.

"Why, come here."

Before the officer finished speaking, Nan Jiyun had already stuffed a small bag of silver into the officer's hands.So, he quickly stopped talking, turned to laughing and said: "Young master guessed right, our county guard is indeed called Xiao Tong."

Sure enough, money can make Mo Tui ghosts.

"Please inform me, my son is the nephew of Mr. Xiao, and he came here specially to see you." Nan Jiyun said in a deep voice.

The guard secretly weighed the weight of the small bag of silver, thinking that this person does not look like a poor man, he should not be a poor relative.

"May I ask what your surname is?"

"Surname Xiao."

"Okay, young master, wait a moment." The guard thought that this young master Xiao should be a descendant of Lord Xiao's clan, so he went to report.

After a while, the guard came out again, led Jiang Chengxiao and his party into the county office, turned left and right all the way, and came to the office of the county guard's office.

"Lord Xiao is inside, son, you can go in by yourself."

The guard saluted, then turned and left.

There were two guards with knives guarding outside the yamen room. Nan Jiyun took a look and immediately became nervous.

"My lord, those two people are not ordinary servants." Nan Jiyun lowered his voice.

Jiang Chengxiao's face remained unchanged, he nodded slightly, left a word, and walked in.

"Try him in a while."

Because Mr. Xiao's permission was obtained in advance, the guard with the knife did not stop Jiang Chengxiao, but he did stop Nan Jiyun and others.

Walking into the yamen room, one can see Xiao Tong kneeling in the center and handling government affairs.

"I met Mr. Xiao."

Jiang Chengxiao bowed.

After the voice fell, Xiao Tong slowly raised his head, revealing a long face, looking at Jiang Chengxiao with a half-smile.

"Young Master Xiao, I have impressions of the young children of the Xiao clan, but I have no impression of you at all. I don't know which family you came from."

Xiao Tong believed that this person was a counterfeit, and the reason why he agreed to meet him was to see what the counterfeit person was up to.

Anyway, government affairs are boring, so it's better to have some fun for yourself.

Jiang Chengxiao shook his head, "I don't know which room I came from."

After listening to it, Xiao Tong couldn't help being a little disappointed. He was going to hear which son of the Xiao family this person was going to make up for him, but he didn't expect to reveal his truth so soon. It was really meaningless.

"Are you here to amuse me?" Xiao Tong squinted his eyes and put down the pen in his hand.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled lightly, and said: "I really don't know which house I come from, I only know that my mother is from the Xiao family, that's why I came here to look for relatives."

Xiao Tong grinned, this young man has a quick mind and can tell lies!

"Well, tell me your mother's name, maybe I know."

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, fixed his gaze on Xiao Tong's face, and slowly uttered a few words: "My mother's name is Xiao Ruyin."

The smile on Xiao Tong's face froze for a moment, and he looked at the standing young man in surprise.

Seeing such an expression, Jiang Chengxiao knew it in his heart.

"Who are you?" Xiao Tong's momentum changed, suddenly became sharp, his eyes were like knives.

"My lord, why don't you guess?" Jiang Chengxiao asked viciously.

Xiao Tong's expression gradually calmed down, and he said, "Your mother's surname is Xiao, so what about your father?"

"My surname is Jiang."

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, Xiao Tong stood up quickly, walked to a place two steps in front of Jiang Chengxiao, and sized him up carefully.

After a long time, Xiao Tong came back to his senses.

"Like! Your eyes and eyebrows are very similar to your mother."

Jiang Chengxiao smiled lightly, and bowed solemnly, "I've seen uncle."

That's right, the person in front of him is exactly what Xiao Dan mentioned to him, the governor of Yuzhang, his own uncle Xiao Tong!
Xiao Tong nodded excitedly, and took his hand, "Good boy, you have grown up."

After the two recognized each other, Xiao Tong sat down with Jiang Chengxiao and chatted about their respective affairs.

"Actually, thanks to the painting Mr. Xiao gave me, otherwise I wouldn't know about uncle." Jiang Chengxiao said.

Xiao Tong said with emotion: "I didn't agree with your mother marrying your father back then, but your mother and your father. Well, it's worth not mentioning it. Later, after your mother passed away, I also cut off contact with King Zhao. Until a few years ago when I went to the capital to report on my work, I accidentally heard about you."

"After I came back, I thought, you gave up your own life for your mother's life, so I must let you know what your mother looks like, so that you can remember it, so I asked Xiao Shangshu to give the painting to you. you."

Jiang Chengxiao nodded and asked, "What happened to my mother and father back then?"

"It's all old stuff, so don't mention it, since your father didn't say it, then I won't say it." Xiao Tong said.

"do not."

Xiao Tong didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "You little brat, how could you spy on the elder's private affairs like this."

"It's nothing, but my father never told me about my mother." As he spoke, Jiang Chengxiao briefly said his name and Zhao Wang's attitude for more than ten years.

After listening, Xiao Tong felt sorry for his nephew, and explained: "Actually, it's nothing, your mother and your father eloped back then."

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao froze in place immediately, good guy, free love?
"At that time, your father's status was not as valuable as it was later. The elders in the clan were not very happy about this marriage, but your mother followed your father wholeheartedly."

In short, this is an old-fashioned story that sounds very dramatic.

The little noble Jiang Ling and the daughter of the wealthy Xiao family secretly promised each other for life, but they were opposed by the woman's family. After some hardships, the two sides finally got together.

However, Xiao Ruyin did not expect to be able to accompany King Zhao to the end.
