Zhou Shan was startled at first when he heard this, but then he felt relieved.

The rank of these two servants made it impossible to know the whereabouts of the prefect. In addition, Lantian was not only not well-known in Jiangdong, but also had a bad reputation. Lu Fan was defrauded of a lot of gold and silver at that time, and he caused a lot of trouble in Wu County.

Zhou Shan touched his money bag to avoid having to deal with this villain, so that he wouldn't have to make himself unhappy.

"I am here to take the prince back to Jiangling on behalf of my mistress. Since Governor Lan is not here, who can do the handover?" Zhou Shan asked again.

Zhou Shan kept talking about the mistress. The two soldiers in the battle couldn't make up their mind because they had not gone to Jiangling to garrison and did not know about the entanglement between Sun Shangxiang and Gan Qian. So after the two of them looked at each other, one of them followed him into the mansion.

According to reports, Lan Tian, ​​Gao Shun, Gan Ning and other generals are not in Quanling, but the true master of the trapped army is in charge.

After a while, Gao Yuan strode out of the house. When he saw Zhou Shan, he frowned and asked, "Who are you? Why does Mrs. Sun want to take away the prince?"

Zhou Shan saw that Gao Yuan had dark skin and a tall figure. He should be a military attache of the prefect's mansion, so he replied coldly: "The general has such a loud tone, he actually questioned the mistress's intentions. I'm afraid that the prefect Lan would not dare to be so scornful. What are you doing?"

What is your identity?"

"I am Gao Yuan, the chief of guards. I did not mean to question Mrs. Sun, but I have been ordered by General Lan to guard the prefect's mansion, so I must be loyal to my duty." Gao Yuan said sonorously.

Zhou Shan clasped his fists and nodded, "I am Miss Jiangdong's family general. I am taking the crown prince back to Jiangling under the order of Miss. I would like to ask General Gao to make it convenient for me."

"I only obey General Lan's orders." Gao Yuan shook his head.

"Jingzhou always belongs to Mr. Xuande, right? My young lady is the mistress of Jingzhou. Doesn't Governor Lan obey his orders?" Zhou Shan frowned.

"A general is also a soldier. You should know that military orders are like mountains. I'm sorry." Gao Yuan was unmoved.

"When will Governor Lan return?" Zhou Shan asked.

Gao Yuan shook his head, "I don't know the general's whereabouts."

"You can't let your mistress wait in Jiangling just because Governor Lan is not here. How is this the way to be a minister? Isn't there someone who can make the decision in Quanling?" Zhou Shan's words became fierce.

"The person who calls the shots? There is still one. General, please come with me." Gao Yuan guided Zhou Shan to the mansion as he spoke.

During Lantian's absence in Quanling, Gaoyuan withdrew many sentries in the prefecture, and most of the guards in the mansion were concentrated outside the back house where the family members lived.

Zhou Shan observed as he walked, and felt that the entire Quanling was very lazy. Except for the corridor leading to the back house and a few groups of heavily armored guards at the courtyard gate, the rest looked deserted.

Zhou Shan had his own initial impression of Lantian's governance ability: mediocre.

Lantian was not as hands-on as Zhuge Liang when it came to governance. He was able to delegate power as much as possible. In addition to frequently intervening in agricultural matters that he was good at, most of the government affairs were left to county officials to handle, and only took action when encountering unresolved or very urgent matters. This way, he could

Exercise the people below and make yourself less tired.

Therefore, among all the major government offices in Quanling, the Prefect's Mansion was relatively the deserted place, which led to the misunderstanding of Zhou Shan from outside.

The Quanling Prefect's Mansion is divided into a front yard and a back house, separated by a large garden in the middle. After the two people walked into the garden, they could see many young women. They all nodded to the plateau and saluted. Zhou Shanxin said that Lantian is still a good place.

A pervert, no wonder Lu Ziheng didn't understand the situation and was defrauded of so much money in the end.

The two walked along the corridor through the garden, and then passed a hanging flower door to the back house. Zhou Shan vaguely heard the sound of children playing.

Just as he was about to pass through the hanging flower door, Gao Yuan suddenly felt a sense of alarm, and then hesitated at the door.

Zhou Shan looked confused:???

Gao Yuan stretched out his right hand and pointed at the inner courtyard and said: "General Zhou please go first."

Zhou Shanxin asked why this guy suddenly became so polite. He took a step forward and walked in. He felt slightly that something was hanging on his shoes.

Just when Zhou Shan lowered his head to check, a basin of water from the sky poured down from the eaves of the door, turning the boy into a drowned rat. The three children inside the courtyard wall giggled.

"General Gao, this is..." Zhou Shan wiped the water on his face, not knowing what happened.

Gao Yuan spread his hands and said awkwardly: "This is children playing, and I often fall into traps..."

The moment Zhou Shan turned his head, several children fled north along the wall, heading straight for the east wing.

Plateau is also relatively speechless. There are more and more of these children, and they are playing more and more tricks.

The mechanism for sprinkling water was taught by Lantian. A wooden basin filled with water was placed on the eaves of the door, and small silk threads were used to connect special positions.

The power of breaking poured out, and the water in the basin fell like a waterfall.

Gao Yuan has been tricked by this agency several times, and now he is very careful before entering. He actually saw the thread on the ground just now, but deliberately did not remind Zhou Shan.

"I wonder which one is the prince?" Zhou Shan asked curiously.

Before Gao Yuan could think too much, he blurted out: "It's the one who runs the slowest."

Adou was originally the slowest runner, but when he was talking, Lan Ji suddenly stopped and made faces at the two of them, and Zhou Shan mistakenly thought he was Liu Chan.

Zhou Shan nodded lightly, thinking that this prince was quite wild, and if he didn't reach an agreement after thinking about it for a while, he could just snatch it away.

With the Crown Prince in hand, these mediocre people should be able to throw a wrench into their hands.

Gan Qian lives in the east wing. She has a gentle and kind personality. When several children do "bad things", they immediately rush into Gan Qian's arms.

Gao Yuan led Zhou Shan to the east wing, and several children dispersed in the inner courtyard again.

Gao Yuan cupped his fists and saluted: "Madam, this is General Zhou, Madam Sun's family general."

Sun Shangxiang's person? Gan Qian looked at Zhou Shan with a puzzled face: "General, is there something wrong?"

Gao Yuan didn't know Gan Qian, but when he saw her graceful manner and fair skin like jade, he thought she was Lan Tian's wife and thought to herself, I finally know what your weakness is.

He cupped his hands and saluted and said: "Madam, at the end of the day, as ordered by the young lady, I will come to Quanling to take the prince back to Jiangling to live. Now that Grandmaster Lan is not at the house, please make it convenient."

Gan Qian frowned: "The eldest lady wants to pick up Adou? But why?"

"What this general doesn't know is that the young lady is the mistress of Jingzhou. Since Duke Xuande is not here, her orders are the same as those of Liu Shijun. Please make it convenient for me, madam."

"This convenience won't work. Mrs. Sun wants to see Adou and let her come to Quanling by herself." Lu Lingqi walked out from the main room in the north at this time. She just heard someone talking in the courtyard. She came out out of curiosity and heard such words. Sun Shangxiang

Still not convinced?

Zhou Shan turned around and saw another stunningly beautiful woman. Lan Ziyu was truly enjoying the blessings of everyone. Her beautiful face could rival that of his own family member, Zhou Yu's widow Xiao Qiao. However, this woman was too ignorant of praise.

"You don't even give me the respect of a young lady?" Zhou Shan's eyes widened angrily.
