This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 833 Volume 5 Changle Sky Survey

Chapter 833 Volume Changle Sky Survey
Regardless of what Feng Ang is thinking for now, Jiaohe County is extremely lively at this moment.

At the beginning, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had no intention of working for the Ming Dynasty.

Even though they were quite fond of the Ming Dynasty's move, they were somewhat disappointed with the Tang Dynasty court.

But no one has ever forgotten their own identities.

But after staying in Jiaohe City for some time, no matter how thick-skinned everyone was, they couldn't hold it anymore.

There is no way, there are no idle people in Jiaohe City...

Although the city is bustling, it also reflects the busyness of Jiaohe City.

Basically everyone is busy with their own work.

However, these people, who poured into the city, became idlers and the targets of gossip.

The saying "The Ming Dynasty does not support idle people" makes them feel ashamed.

Under such circumstances, everyone devoted themselves to various industries and professions in the Ming Dynasty.

Early in the morning of that day, Yang Lin brought a group of officials from Jiaohe County to wait outside Jiaohe City.

There was no other reason. News came last night that the eldest princess was arriving.

"By the way, are those guys in the Tang Dynasty being well behaved recently?" Yang Lin asked casually while waiting.

He still cares a lot about the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, this was Li Chengqian's instruction, so he naturally wanted to do it to perfection.

"Why are they restless?" Liu Renshi heard this and smiled, "The county magistrate must know better than me that the Tang Dynasty's remuneration can never be compared with that of the Ming Dynasty. Although we have restricted the trades they engage in, we are not harsh in terms of remuneration.

One month in the Ming Dynasty would take at least half a year in the Tang Dynasty, or even more.

At first they were too proud of their status to go and work, but when they found out, word spread, and now it is said that there are only a few people left in the camp.

They are a bunch of veteran soldiers, how could they let go of such an opportunity? "

After Liu Renshi finished speaking, everyone nodded.

Indeed, in the Tang Dynasty, many jobs were unpaid, with just food and lodging provided, but weren't there still plenty of people doing them happily?

In times of recession, if a restaurant hires you as a waiter, it is a blessing that helps you survive.

"That's it for now." Yang Lin nodded and said, "As long as they don't cause trouble, don't treat them unfairly. After all, we will follow His Highness back to the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Moreover, when they return to the Tang Dynasty in the future, they will also promote the Ming Dynasty.

There has to be someone who knows the good things about my Ming Dynasty, right? "

As they were chatting, a fast horse suddenly came to report: "County Governor, Her Highness the Princess is less than five miles away from Jiaohe City."

"Alright, alright, put everything else aside for now. The princess will be here soon, so everyone pay attention." Hearing this, Yang Lin no longer cared about those guys from the Tang Dynasty. To him, nothing was more important than the princess at this moment!
After he finished speaking, everyone started to straighten their clothes and then stood on both sides of the road waiting for Changle and his group.

They didn't have to wait long, and Changle's carriage slowly drove over.

"Your humble servant Yang Lin pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess." Before Changle even stepped off the carriage, Yang Lin and all the officials bowed together.

No official of the Ming Dynasty dared to look down on Changle.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the Ming Dynasty, apart from Li Chengqian, perhaps only Changle had such treatment.

What others say is really not enough.

"Thank you for your hard work, County Magistrate." After getting off the carriage, Changle said softly, "In the early years, the County Magistrate followed my brother and traveled thousands of miles to here. He is a loyal minister of our Ming Dynasty..."

Changle didn't put on airs towards Yang Lin.

"Your Highness, you are too kind." Yang Lin immediately bowed and smiled, "I am able to achieve what I have today because of the support of your two Highnesses. Otherwise, I would be just a poor merchant in Jingyang City now."

Yang Lin was very tactful and did not become complacent because of Changle's politeness.

On the contrary, he was indeed grateful to Li Chengqian and his sister.

You know, no matter what era it is, crossing class boundaries is extremely difficult.

If he had not met Li Chengqian and his sister, he would never have had the chance to gain a foothold in the court in his life.

Even though he was still a little short of overtaking Li Qinjian, he was still the governor of a county, a high-ranking official, so he had no dissatisfaction.

Besides, as long as Jiaohe County is governed well, there is a chance that he will be one of the Nine Ministers when His Highness returns to the Tang Dynasty in the future.

"My brother said in his early years that everyone's success must have a reason. The county magistrate has been able to get to where he is today. Of course, it is because of my brother's cultivation, but in the final analysis, it is also because of the county magistrate's own ability that he is competent..."

Changle said, looking in the direction of Jiaohe City, and asked, "I heard that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are now working in Jiaohe City?"

"Your Highness." Hearing Changle's previous words, Yang Lin was very happy. He was still very happy when he heard Changle's latter words. He immediately bowed and said, "Those soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are working in Jiaohe City, which can be regarded as a contribution to the construction of Jiaohe City.

Although Jiaohe City is not in ruins now, it is indeed time for major construction."

He also wanted to explain why those people were asked to join the construction site.

Nodding, Changle smiled and said, "Then I will go and take a look tomorrow."

After saying that, everyone walked towards the city.

Because of Changle's arrival, there are a lot more patrols in Jiaohe City recently.

This is understandable. After all, she is the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, and the officials of Jiaohe County dare not let their guard down.

Just as Changle entered Jiaohe City, Feng Ang's envoy also entered Jiaohe County.

However, although they were an envoy, more often than not, they actually played the role of spies.

Since the Ming Dynasty did this, Feng Ang naturally wanted to find out the Ming Dynasty's specific intentions and operations. Otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty later.

"Whose vehicle frame was that just now? And it was even escorted by a large army." Someone asked in confusion.

In fact, they were originally ahead of Changle and others, but after seeing the army, they moved away for a while and fell behind Changle and others.

Seeing so many people waiting outside Jiaohe City, everyone started talking.

"In the Ming Dynasty, there are probably not many people who can enjoy this kind of treatment." Someone pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that princess? After all, that princess is from Jiaohe County. If she comes back, it is possible."

The princess he was talking about was naturally Murong Wanqiu.

"Probably not." The leader looked at the wall of Jiaohe City, shook his head and said, "We have also learned about Yang Lin recently. If it was just the princess, he might not come out in person. Moreover, in the eyes of these officials of the Ming Dynasty, there are only the two princes. Ordinary people are not worth their attention."

"Could it be that His Highness has returned?" Upon hearing this, someone immediately asked in surprise, "Didn't they say that His Highness was still in Yalong River? Even when His Majesty was assassinated, He didn't move at all..."

At this point, he was suddenly shocked, "Could it be that that person was secretly repairing the plank road before?

No wonder he wants to..."

"Couldn't it be His Highness Changle?" Hearing that he was getting more and more outrageous, the leader interrupted him unhappily, "I heard that His Highness Changle is now committed to revising the laws of the Ming Dynasty and has been observing the people's sentiments in Sun Moon Mountain. If my guess is correct, it should be His Highness Changle who is coming to Jiaohe City this time.

Well, no matter who it is, we’ll find out once we get into the city.”

As he spoke, he looked at everyone, hesitated for a while, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, we are not sure about the current situation of Ming Dynasty, so we will not separate and go into the city together."

According to the original arrangement, he would only bring a few people into the city to meet Yang Lin. As for the others, they should have been dispersed throughout Jiaohe County long ago.

But along the way, he thought about it again and again, and finally gave up.

If the Ming Dynasty treated them as the escaped Tang soldiers and killed them on the spot, they would really have nowhere to seek justice.

In front, both Yang Lin and Wang Qing had already noticed these guys. Judging from their clothes, their identities were not a secret.

But neither of them took it seriously.

In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, they really didn't believe that anyone could turn the world upside down.

People always think that the Ming Dynasty had powerful soldiers and horses and the most advanced military equipment, but they often overlook that the most terrifying thing about the Ming Dynasty was actually the people's hearts.

What about Jiaohe County?

Even though it was the Ming Dynasty that conquered the country with swords and guns, the first thing Yang Lin did after taking office was to win over the hearts of the people.

In fact, Yang Lin got an advantage. At the beginning, Murong Fuyun had always been wary of Murong Xiaojun, and he also imposed heavy taxes on Jiaohe County. The people's support had long been gone.

Yang Lin came from a merchant family and was very eloquent. In addition, the Ming Dynasty was willing to invest in people's livelihood construction. In just a few years, the people of Jiaohe County realized who was truly good to them.

When it comes to this, there is no harm without comparison.

After settling Changle and his group, Yang Lin said to Wang Qing beside him, "It should be Duke Geng who sent someone. He is not slow in responding. However, under the current circumstances, it is not convenient for me to see him."

"What does County Magistrate Yang mean?" Although Wang Qing noticed those guys, he was not sure who they were. After hearing what Yang Lin said, he looked at Yang Lin suspiciously.

Yang Lin did not hide anything, and immediately introduced the recent situation, and then said: "Duke Geng must have sent someone to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty.

But in the current situation, no matter if my Ming Dynasty needs someone to certify my Ming Dynasty, or my Ming Dynasty needs someone to build it, or for something else, I cannot send those soldiers of the Tang Dynasty back now.

Therefore, I cannot stay in Jiaohe City, at least not openly. The safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess still depends on General Wang.”

After hearing what Yang Lin said, Wang Qing immediately understood what was going on.

"Don't worry, County Magistrate Yang, your Highness will be safe with me here."

"Then I'll leave it to General Wang. As for His Highness, please ask the General..."

"Your Highness is a humble person. County Magistrate Yang should just mind his own business." Wang Qing interrupted Yang Lin before he could finish his words. He knew what Yang Lin wanted to say, but from what he knew about the two princes, they were obviously not that kind of people.

Seeing this, Yang Lin smiled and said no more. He actually just wanted to express his attitude.

After returning to the government office, Yang Lin immediately ordered: "If anyone from the Tang Dynasty or someone of unknown identity wants to see you, just say that I am sick and cannot see guests."

He originally wanted to say that he was not in the city, but when he thought about it, the eldest princess was in the city now. If the eldest princess really had something urgent to summon him, wouldn't that be digging a hole for himself?

After explaining it, Yang Lin didn't take it to heart.

For him, it was not that he could not offend Feng Ang, but he was born into a merchant family after all, and he really did not want to offend anyone unless it was necessary.

As the saying goes, there is no coincidence in the world.

Less than a quarter of an hour after he finished giving his instructions, Feng Ang's envoy arrived outside the county magistrate's mansion.

If they hadn't first found out who had arrived in Jiaohe City, they would have arrived before Yang Lin.

After sending his men to make the announcement, everyone began to wait.

Soon, the steward of the county magistrate's mansion came out.

Upon seeing this, the leader hurriedly stepped forward and said with a bow, "Feng Zhe from the Mansion of Duke Geng of the Tang Dynasty..."

As soon as Feng Zhe finished speaking, the steward of the County Magistrate's Mansion said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my county magistrate is not feeling well today, I'm afraid I can't meet you, please forgive me."

Feng Zhe was not surprised to hear this.

It is obvious that the Ming Dynasty is taking the initiative now, so it is normal for them to want to gain some control.

If it were them, they would do the same.

"I am sorry for the intrusion." Feng Zhe bowed and continued, "Then we will visit County Magistrate Yang another day. Please take care of yourself."

He didn't ask about Yang Lin's health, and his tone was not strong.

For things like this, everyone just needs to know the truth. Is there any need to explain it clearly?

"You are all guests who have come from afar. I will arrange an inn for you right away." As he said this, the steward waved his hand.

Seeing someone coming over, Feng Zhe smiled and said, "Thank you for your help, but don't worry about it. We have always heard about the various magical features of Changming Restaurant, and we have had the idea of ​​staying at Changming Restaurant for a long time."

"In that case, I won't insist." The manager knew what he was thinking, but he didn't expose him.

Since these guys wanted to go that way, why would he stop them?

"Then we will take our leave first. If County Magistrate Yang gets better, please inform us." Feng Zhe said very humbly, "We are here this time to discuss an important matter with the County Magistrate for my master."

"Of course." The steward heard this and said, "As long as the county governor is in good health, I will inform you immediately."

Having said that, Feng Zhe and the others decided not to stay any longer and turned around and left.

After they left, the person in charge hurried back to report to Yang Lin.

When Yang Lin learned that Feng Zhe and the others were going to stay at Changming Restaurant, he immediately snorted coldly: "These guys, are they really coming here for the prince? They have vicious intentions.

Once they move into Changming Restaurant, if His Highness summons me, I will not be able to refuse."

Changle came to Jiaohe City and naturally stayed at Changming Restaurant. There was no doubt about that...
