Chapter 469 Humiliated me!

In the early morning of the next day, a group of four people carried sedan chairs and slowly walked from the official road to Yueqing City. At the gate of Yueqing County, Shen Yi stood side by side with Jiang Youde, the prefect of Wenzhou, waiting for the arrival of the Zhejiang vassal.

Soon, the sedan chair landed at the gate of Yueqing City.

Prefect Jiang hurriedly walked up to him, and then bowed his hands to a middle-aged man who came down from the sedan chair, with a respectful expression: "Your Majesty, Jiang Youde, prefect of Wenzhou, has met Lord Fantai."

At this time, among the officials present, apart from the magistrate Jiang, Shen Yi was the highest rank. Master Shen took a deep breath, stepped forward silently, bowed his head slightly to Qian Qing and cupped his hands and said, "I have seen Mr. Fantai."

After Shen Yi saluted, all the officials hurried forward to salute.

In the state of Chen, you don't need to kneel down to worship a superior. After all, everyone is a scholar, and it's fine to kneel down to the emperor, relatives and teachers.

Except for those who are flattering to the extreme, most people are at best bowing their hands.

Moreover, Shen Yi is an official of the Ministry of War and does not belong to the local government, so he doesn't even have to call himself an official.

After everyone saw the ceremony, Qian Fantai, who looked about 50 years old, glanced at everyone, and finally set his sights on Shen Yi. With a smile on his face, he said: "Our officials from Zhejiang are here. Greetings, this old man is so cheeky that he accepts it, I didn't expect that Master Labor Shen is also waiting here, this really makes this old man feel a little bit sorry."

After all, the two are not officials of the same system. Shen Yi treats these local officials with a respectful distance. Hearing this, he just smiled politely: "Master Fantai is coming, and I, a junior, should greet you. split thing."

"Master Shen is a student of Ganquan Academy?"

Shen Yi nodded and said with a smile, "It's from Ganquan Academy."

Hearing this, Qian Qing said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the old man and Zhao Shangshu of Ganquan Academy did know each other, and they had dinner together in the early years, but now that Zhao Shangshu is in charge of the local official, I don't know if he still remembers the old man. "

Faced with such half-truths and half-false words, Shen Yi just smiled and didn't answer.

He has no qualifications to replace Zhao Changping with a second-rank official, and this Qian Fantai is likely to be polite, and by the way, flaunt that he knows the Minister of the Household Department, that's all.

If you have to climb up this pole abruptly, you will appear ignorant.

After everyone talked at the gate of the city, Jiang Youde invited Qian Fantai into Yueqing City. It was still in the morning, and Jiang Zhifu first invited his superior to the county government for tea, and when it was close to noon, he brought him We went to the most luxurious restaurant in Yueqing and had a meal.

After drinking and eating, Qian Fantai patted his belly contentedly, then looked at Shen Yi who had lunch with him, and said with a smile: "Master Shen, since the imperial envoy established the Anti-Japanese Army in Zhejiang this year, Our Zhejiang coast is much more peaceful than in previous years, and we local officials are very grateful for the kindness of the imperial court and imperial envoys."

He looked at Shen Yi and continued: "This old man is here mainly to represent the province to see what the anti-Japanese army needs. As long as it can help, the chief envoy will spare no effort."

This set of rhetoric seems very official.

Master Shen couldn't figure out what the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province meant. After thinking about it for a while, he lowered his head and said, "Master Fantai, I can't think of anything specific that the anti-Japanese army is short of. , I will write a letter to the imperial envoy this afternoon, and after the imperial envoy determines what the anti-Japanese army needs, I will ask the imperial envoy to send an official document to Lin'an Mansion."

Hearing the word imperial envoy, Qian Qing's expression froze, but soon he smiled and said, "That's fine."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "But since I have come all the way to Yueqing, I hope that Mr. Shen can take me to the anti-Japanese army barracks for a while, and then go to see the warships built by the Ministry of War in Zhejiang. What does it look like..."

After a pause, he continued: "This way, the province can have a clearer grasp of the situation along the coast. If Zhongcheng asks about it, I can answer."

Master Shen didn't even think about it, he immediately nodded happily, smiled and said: "Master Fantai wants to see it, this is the honor of the officers and men of the Anti-Japanese Army, I will take Master Fantai there later, not only Fantai is to see the warship first , or go to the anti-Japanese army barracks first?"

Qian Fantai narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Let's go to the barracks to take a look first. I've been very curious about this anti-Japanese army that has made outstanding achievements in eastern Zhejiang."

"it is good."

After saying the word "good", Shen Yi seemed to think of something, and after hesitating for a while, he said, "Master Fantai, we just finished our meal, why don't we go after a short rest?"

Qian Fantai stood up straight away, with a hearty smile: "Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will rush back to Lin'an Mansion. I don't have much time, so let's go."

"Master Lao Shen will lead the way."

Shen Yi had no choice but to nod helplessly, and just like this, he led a group of Zhejiang officials, including Qian Qing, out of Yueqing County in a mighty way, and ran towards the anti-Japanese army camp outside the county.

As soon as the crowd arrived at the gate of the Anti-Japanese Army camp, Chief Shen, who was riding in the front, jumped off his mount with a dark face, strode to the gate of the Anti-Japanese Army camp, and kicked the sleeping man awake. The faces of the two gatekeepers were as ugly as they wanted: "It's broad daylight, just dozing off at this gate! You have completely disgraced the anti-Japanese army!"

At this time, all the officials in Zhejiang also got out of the sedan chairs, got out of the carriages, and saw the scene of Shen Yi lecturing the soldiers.

Shen Yi also seemed to have noticed the eyes of the "colleagues" behind him. After glaring at the two gatekeepers, he turned around and walked to Qian Qing's side. After training, let Fantai laugh."

"It's not surprising to take a nap in the afternoon in late autumn."

Qian Fantai stroked his beard tolerantly, and smiled lightly: "Don't say it's them, the old man is also a little sleepy now, and wants to find a place to sleep for a while."

Shen Yi first sighed, then glared at the two gatekeepers, with a very bad tone: "What are you doing in a daze? Call you Ling Qianhu to welcome the master Fantai from Lin'an Mansion!"

The two gatekeepers looked at each other, and then said cautiously to Shen Yi: "Shen...Master Shen, Ling Qianhu is not in the camp anymore, he went out yesterday."

Shen Yi frowned: "Who is in charge in the big camp?"

"Back to Master Shen, Xue Wei and Xue Baihu are in charge."

Shen Yi took a deep breath and said, "Go get Xue Wei and let him take the Fantai and other adults to visit the barracks."

The two soldiers bowed their heads and said yes, then turned around and left.

Shen Yi turned his head, with an unnatural expression on his face: "These recruits are the most difficult to discipline, making everyone laugh."

Qian Qing took a thoughtful look at the camp of the Anti-Japanese Army, stretched out his hand to stroke the beard on his chin, and smiled lightly: "The Anti-Japanese Army has not been formed for a long time, so this is already very good."

While the officials were talking, a tall and strong man, supported by two gatekeepers, came to the gate of the camp.

Although this big man was tall and strong, his face was flushed and he smelled of alcohol. It was obvious that he had passed out from drinking.

Shen Yi was furious, stepped forward and slapped the big man on the head, angrily said: "Xue Wei! Xue Wei!"

The big Xue Wei was hit on the head, and he was also furious. He opened his eyes immediately, and was about to find trouble with the person who beat him, but when he opened his eyes and found that it was Shen Yi standing in front of him, he suppressed his anger , Said in a low voice: "Master Shen, what are you doing to me?"

"Who made you drink?!"

Shen Yi was still furious. He first looked back at the Zhejiang officials behind him, and then looked directly at Xue Wei. He gritted his teeth angrily and trembled a little.

"Today, you anti-Japanese army completely lost my face, Shen Yi!"
