Chapter 231
March [-]rd is the Shangsi Festival.It was the time when the Han people traditionally repaired the temples. Of course, the most famous ones were Wang Xizhi and others.Right now, Zhou Xu, Ji Chuan, and Liu Yi are drinking by the gurgling wet water.Himekawa sighed, he couldn't help but feel a bit sluggish because he didn't have the grand gatherings where he used to be famous at home and drink water.

Although his status as a bastard in the family was not taken seriously, Himekawa still misses that time very much.Waiting to see, Ji Chuan glanced at the river, where Liu Yi and Zhou Xu were toasting.Ji Chuan snorted disdainfully, Zhou Xu is just a nerd for Liu Yi's generation, so he is not worthy of talking with him.

Those who don't know me say what I want, Ji Chuan with his hands behind his back, unwilling to gather with ordinary people, but also with three points of integrity, slowly descending along the river.Just as he was about to walk a few steps, an official quickly walked up to Ji Chuan and said, "Mr. Ji, a celebrity has come to the recruiting hall."

Ji Chuan stretched out his finger and poked it into the distance, and said impatiently: "This kind of thing bothers me too, and most of them are just idlers and bluffers. Just do what you did in the past!"

The official said: "But sir, this one is a bit different. He said he was a domestic servant and came here on behalf of his master, put down his name badge and left."

Ji Chuan showed a bit of a serious face, and being sent by a servant shows that he is not an ordinary person, and delivering famous thorns has a certain status.At least for the past month, none of the hundreds of people who came to the recruiting center delivered their name cards.

"Did you bring the famous thorn?" Ji Chuan rolled up his sleeves and said.

"Bring it, bring it." After speaking, the official took out the name thorn from his sleeve.

Ji Chuan saw a vertical small character in the stabbed book, and wrote neatly from top to bottom.After reading it, Ji Chuan changed his expression and said, "Immediately report to the eunuch, this person will be the eunuch to invite him personally."

Outside the Tongfu Inn in Huaihuang Town, a bullock cart was parked outside.This bullock cart is not exquisite, but it makes the businessmen who go to and from Geshan look sideways.The guys pointed out that in this era, only the children of the gentry had the luxury to use cattle as a means of transportation.The news is well-informed, and everyone knows that a distinguished guest has come to the East Courtyard, and there are more than a dozen servants with him.

While everyone was speculating about the identity of the honored guest in the East Courtyard, a group of cavalry from the city suddenly arrived in front of the inn.These dozen or so cavalrymen were all dressed in iron armor, and they were all good horses. They dismounted together before arriving at the inn.

When one person saw the leader, he suddenly said: "Isn't this Li Taishou?" As soon as he said this, everyone immediately walked aside and bowed down.
It turned out that after receiving Ji Chuan's report, Li Chongjiu put aside the affairs of Yuyi Town, brought dozens of personal guards and fast horses to Huaihuang Town, and immediately came to the Tongfu Inn together with Ji Chuan.Unexpectedly, he would be recognized as soon as he arrived at the inn.

When Li Chongjiu stepped inside, the innkeeper, the boy, and the staff all came to meet him.Li Chongjiu waved his hand to signal that they don't need to be polite, but asked, "Is Mr. Wen here?"

"Report to the envoy, Mr. Wen is in the East courtyard."

Li Chongjiu nodded, turned his head and said: "You stay outside, and Mr. Ji will come in with me."

"Promise." Ji Chuan agreed, then glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "Quickly lead the way."

Before Li Chongjiu came to the east courtyard, there was a man in kudzu clothes standing with his hands down at the gate of the courtyard. When he saw someone coming, he immediately asked, "Is your lord here to pay homage to my master?"

Li Chongjiu glanced at this person, the other person spoke in Jinlingluo's lower voice, which is the most standard official language today, even Ji Chuan can't speak it fluently.This is the case for a young man, it seems that the other party is not an imposter.Thinking of this, Li Chongjiu couldn't help feeling a little warm.

Li Chongjiu said immediately: "Li Chongjiu, governor of Shanggu County, is here to pay a visit to Mr. Wen."

After the other party heard Li Chongjiu's name, he did not show the slightest surprise, but said calmly: "So it is the envoy, the master ordered, if the envoy comes, please go in directly."

After Li Chongjiu finished speaking, Zhou Xu and Zhou Xu stepped inside and passed the gate of the courtyard. They saw a man wearing a Lin Zong scarf and high-toothed clogs, holding a book and reading it aloud.Li Chongjiu stopped and listened to a few words, then he knew that what the other party was chanting was the fisherman, and it was an article in Zhuangzi mocking Confucianism.

After the other party finished reading one article, the servant said: "Master, Li Shijun, the prefect of Shanggu County, is here."

After hearing this, the other party put down the scroll, strode forward, bowed and said: "It turns out that the emperor is here to welcome you."

After avoiding Li Chongjiu, he bowed flatly and said: "Mr. You are polite."

After the two met, the other party invited Li Chongjiu into the room for a detailed discussion.There are two bordered reed mats spread in the house.The other party sat upright, his every move was in line with the family's chic style, and his speech was neither humble nor overbearing.

Li Chongjiu pointed to Ji Chuan beside him and said, "This is Mr. Ji, a staff member of the prefect's mansion."

The two saluted each other, and Ji Chuan asked first, "In Xia Ji Chuan, where is Mr. Wen's county?"

"Taiyuan County!"

Taiyuan County!Wen's!

The Wen family in Taiyuan became a prominent family in Taiyuan from Qionghou Wenjiao, and their descendants have been serving as censors and governors.Himekawa asked about the genealogy of the other party, and the other party answered them one by one.Only then did Ji Chuan nod to Li Chongjiu, indicating that his identity was confirmed and he was not an impostor.

Wen Yanbo, son of Sizhou Sima Wen Junyou.There are three brothers in the Wen family, Wen Yanbo is the second eldest, the famous official Xue Daoheng once said that the three members of the Wen family are all talented ministers.And Wen Yanbo also became famous at a young age, and he passed the imperial examination when he was less than 30 years old.In the Tang Dynasty, there was a saying that there were thirty old famous scriptures and fifty young scholars. It was said that the number of Jinshi subjects was difficult. In the Tang Dynasty, no more than a dozen people were admitted each year, but it was even more difficult in the Sui Dynasty. There were only a dozen or so people, and this Wen Yanbo was able to become one of these ten people, which showed that he was really talented.

As a time traveler, Li Chongjiu was even more familiar with Wen Yanbo, the famous figure in the early Tang Dynasty, but Li Chongjiu didn't understand that Wen Yanbo should have voted for Luo Yi at this moment in history, but why he voted for himself now.
However, the name became popular again, and Li Chongjiu also wanted to test the other party, and immediately asked: "Mr. Wen came from a long way today, what can I teach me?"

Wen Yanbo cupped his hands and said: "Don't dare, just let you know the current situation? Huaihuang Town now has Turks, Liu Wuzhou in the east, four tribes of the Xi clan in the north, Dou Jiande in the south, Xue Shixiong, Gao Kaidao, Luo Yi, and Khitan in the east. If there is a battle together, not to mention all the enemies coming together, if one or two of them raise their troops, I am afraid that Huaihuang will be in danger."

Speaking of this, Wen Yanbo paused and said: "After I resigned from office, I traveled all over the world. I saw wars all over the world, and the people were devastated. I really couldn't bear to see it. I only thought about the suffering of the people, but when I passed by Huaihuang Town, Seeing that the people are in harmony, the Han family is harmonious, the people live in peace and harmony, and the emperor has been here for only two years, but it is a great rule, and he is a wise emperor. I can't bear to see the prosperity of this place, and the war will turn it into rubble, so I come here to ask the prefect Let me ask you, the eunuch, to listen to one or two."
