Chapter 196 Leiyang Drinkers

Zhou Yu died of illness and Lu Su ascended the throne also means that Liu Bei and Sun Quan entered the real honeymoon period. However, Mrs. Mi has now become the official wife, so Sun Quan will naturally not give his sister to Liu Bei anymore, and that Mrs. Sun in history has not appeared. Of course, these have nothing to do with Liu Yi. His ordinary and comfortable days are finally broken.

"Sir, Leiyang is ahead." It has been August, but the autumn tiger gives Liu Yi the feeling that it is even more terrifying than in summer. The carriage is walking between the lush mountain roads. Chen Ergou and two teams of men guarding each other. They have been away from the fishing town for half a month, and they have just finished running away from Changsha and Guiyang counties. In order to save time, Liu Yi basically stays in the wild.

The temporary shed built by Liu Yi also has the effect of restoring energy and physical strength. Otherwise, these hundred guards would not be able to bear it. Even so, after a month of marching, Liu Yi and Chen Ergou, they also lost a lot of weight.

"How many counties are there in Guiyang County?" Liu Yi stood outside the carriage, holding the railings, looking at the lush forests in the distance. He didn't know where Chen Ergou saw Leiyang County.

"If Guiyang is not counted as Chen County, there are ten counties. This Leiyang is the third county. After Leiyang, there are seven counties." Chen Ergou said with a smile.

In this way, there are 12 counties in Wuling, 13 counties in Lingling, and 17 counties in Nanjun. In addition to the seven counties here, I have to go to forty-two counties... Is this a punishment? If I had known this, when I was idle, I should have solved the matter in Changsha first, which would save a lot of trouble.

I spent two months in Xincheng, and I don’t know if it can be completed in two months.

"After passing Leiyang County, let the people from Leiyang County inform Brother Zilong and arrange a boat to come. The matter in Guiyang is over. Let's take the boat!" Liu Yi sighed and said, how many counties in Guiyang are blocked in water, otherwise why would he suffer this crime?

When he said this, Leiyang County had already appeared in sight. Liu Yi stretched out his body and looked at the soldiers around him. He had a bit of apology. He said to Chen Ergou: "Tell me brothers, let me repair this Leiyang County for three days, and see which counties still need to go by land, and then go by water directly."

After more than half a month of marching, Liu Yi felt that his body was about to fall apart when he sat in the carriage, let alone these guards. Their duty was to protect himself. If the marching dragged down his body, he would really meet a bandit who was not open to his eyes or someone wanted to contact the thief to deal with him. How could he have the power to fight?

Although this is unlikely, it is related to one's own safety. And seeing these soldiers suffer without regrets, Liu Yi felt embarrassed. Although it is important to rush, there is no need to rush for a while. At worst, the new city will be stopped for a few days and then make arrangements after he comes back.

"Will it delay the trip?" Chen Ergou said worriedly.

"It will take a few days, and after taking the boat, the speed will be much faster. Look at brothers, what really happens, how can you have the strength to fight with the enemy?" Liu Yi shook his head. Chen Ergou is much smarter than Liu Sandao's trolley. If Liu Sandao was here, his first reaction would probably be to cheer. I don't know how the trolley is in Lingling County now. He can meet him when he passed by Lingling.

"Here!" Chen Ergou looked happy. In fact, he was exhausted now. In the past half month, he had been around thousands of miles apart, and ordinary soldiers were probably exhausted.

As the outline of Leiyang County became closer, everyone's pace could not help but accelerated a lot. It was just like the past when I said that the county magistrate and a group of county officials had come out to greet each other. At the gate of Leiyang County, pedestrians in groups of three or three looked at the crew in curiously and consciously gave in to both sides. The county guards guarding the city stopped Liu Yi's frame and bowed and said, "I wonder if this general has a transfer order?"

Looking at the closed city gate, the city head was a little pale, and looking at the guarding county guards here with trembling fear, Chen Ergou was furious: "Rareless, what's the point?"

"General, forgive me!" The county guard quickly bowed and said, "I am just a mandatory act."

Logically speaking, the county guards and the troops and horses of various places belong to two systems and are not subordinate to each other. However, there are only a few dozen county guards in Leiyang County. Facing this army that is tired but looks extraordinary at first sight, he is a little scared.

"Absurd, I'm crazy and my lord's order to build temples in various counties. One month ago, the magistrates of each county should cooperate. Whose order are you here for??" Chen Ergou said angrily.

While speaking, the Leiyang County Guard also rushed over and heard the news. Hearing this, he clasped his fists at Chen Ergou and said, "This general, we have indeed not received any documents."

"Where is your county magistrate?" Liu Yi came out of the carriage and frowned at the county magistrate.

"Mr. Bo Yuan!?" The county magistrate was indeed a little surprised when he saw Liu Yi.

"Do you recognize me?" Liu Yi looked at the county magistrate. He was indeed familiar with him, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"I used to be the chief under General Wei Yan's command. Because he defeated Guiyang and Lingling County, he was sent to Leiyang to serve as a county lieutenant after the war." The county lieutenant bowed and smiled.

Liu Yi made a sudden look when he heard this. Although Wei Yan took risks in that battle, he was indeed outstanding. Many of his soldiers were promoted by merits. However, Liu Yi could not remember so many people. He nodded and said, "I am ordered by the emperor to supervise the construction of temples in various counties. The official documents should have been issued long ago. Have you ever received any news?"

The county magistrate heard this and smiled bitterly: "The official document may have been sent, but I'm afraid the county magistrate has not yet read it."

"The official document a month ago?" Liu Yi glared.

"Sir, I don't know that our new county magistrate has never handled official duties since he took office. He enjoys drinking all day. The official documents sent by him are probably full of documents." The county magistrate said with a wry smile.

"There are still such people?" Chen Ergou couldn't help but complain.

Liu Yi got off the carriage and said, "Have you counted the supplies sent a few days ago?"

"If it is sent, it should be in the treasury." The county magistrate dared not guarantee it.

"Take me to meet this county magistrate." Liu Yi sighed. Liu Yi was quite impressed by Liu Bei's eyes. How did he find such a person in the position of Leiyang County Magistrate?

The county magistrate was about to agree, but suddenly he heard the sound of hooves in the distance. A man, about dozens of cavalry, was running towards this side. He was the leader of a general, with a long beard and a pair of phoenix eyes. He looked around and was so majestic that it was Guan Yu.

Seeing this, Liu Yi couldn't help but stop and waited for Guan Yu to come over. He then clasped his fists and said with a smile: "June, I haven't seen you for a long time, and your power is getting more and more fierce!"

Guan Yu held down the war horse. When he saw that it was Liu Yi, his face relaxed a little, and he dismounted and said, "Why is Bo Yuan here?"

Guan Yu and Liu Yi have a deep friendship, but their attitude towards Liu Yi is quite gentle. Perhaps because of Liu Yi's low background and ability, although he doesn't have much contact, he is still quite close to Liu Yi.

"I was ordered to supervise the construction of the temple. I happened to be here today, but I didn't expect that I had not received the official documents here." Liu Yi said with a wry smile.

"Hmph, I came for this matter. At that time, this person was recommended by Lu Su and Kong Ming. I thought he was quite talented. My brother asked him to be the magistrate of Leiyang County. Judging from his talent, he did not expect that after this person took office, he would drink and enjoy himself all day long and not think about serious matters!" Guan Yu snorted coldly and said, "Since Bo Yuan is here, you and I will go to see this person together."

"Recommendation from Kong Ming and Lu Su?" Liu Yi widened his eyes and looked at Guan Yu. Are you sure it wasn't you teasing me? Liu Bei actually gave only one county magistrate to the recommended person of these two people?

"Well, you have a name for yourself." Guan Yu nodded, and said with a little disdain.

Liu Yi rubbed his temples and looked at the county magistrate and said, "Who is your county magistrate?"

"Pang Tong, whose name is Shiyuan." The county magistrate bowed and said.

"So it was him." Liu Yi shook his head and sighed when he heard this. The world is really small, and he can even encounter this matter.

"Bo Yuan knew this person?" Guan Yu said curiously.

"The dragon and phoenix chick are so at ease in the world. This dragon is Kong Ming, and the Feng Chu is this person. I have heard of it more than once when I was in Wolonggang, but I have never seen it." Liu Yi shook his head and smiled.

"You are just a person with a false reputation. Bo Yuan looked down on him too highly." Guan Yu was quite disdainful of this. He had seen Zhuge Liang's ability and had nothing to say. However, although Pang Tong was as famous as Zhuge Liang, he now seemed to be just a drunkard.

"The matter of the matter has also been delayed. County magistrate, go and take my people to take the materials for that day, and recruit 120 craftsmen from the city to set aside." Liu Yi shook his head and looked at Guan Yu and said, "I need to wait here for a few days. After Junhou returns, he will help me explain to the emperor."

"Don't worry, Bo Yuan, this is not your fault. Let's go and see what else can I say about this drunkard?" Guan Yu nodded. Even if he didn't say it, Liu Bei would not blame Liu Yi for such a thing. He immediately invited Liu Yi to the yamen office and meet Pang Tong.

"If you can be as famous as Kong Ming, you must have extraordinary points. The emperor is now at the moment of using people. If you miss the talent, wouldn't it be a pity? Don't be reckless!" Liu Yi smiled and gave a vaccination, but he remembered this plot. However, in the Romance, it seems that Zhang Fei came from. Although Zhang Feimang, Zhang Fei still respects those who are capable, but Guan Yu is different. He seems to have a hatred towards the gentry. He is really worried that this master will be unhappy and will slash Pang Tong on the spot.
