Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 124 This is a well

No matter which country or place you are in, every city has a standard plan for the construction of city walls. If you are a county-level city, then your city walls must not be larger than those of the state capital.

But the city wall in front of them was nearly 30 meters high, with hundreds of meters extending outward on the left and right sides. Several officials even thought they were back inside the palace.

"This is not in line with etiquette~" the Minister of Rites said blankly.

A group of country bumpkins who have never seen the world.

Zhao Kang shook his head and dismounted, waved his hand to let Green Yuan go away, and moved closer to Long Chu.

This is a good time to be courteous.

With that flattering smile and the skillful way he helped the empress get off the carriage, those who didn't know thought he was some kind of eunuch in charge.

All the officials got out of the carriage one by one, and the gate of Yuanjiang County opened. Zhao Kang's confidants Gao Quan and Zhang Long were all dressed in clean clothes. The people behind him were also clean and tidy, and some even shaved their beards. Zhao Kang was very surprised to see them. satisfy.

Not bad, not embarrassing to me.

We have to show the spirit of our Yuanjiang County!

"Yuanjiang County Prime Minister Gaoquan and Zhang Long, the head catcher, are here to see Your Majesty!"

The two confidants took the lead to kneel down, and they were also a little frightened. They didn't expect that Boss Xiao was actually Her Majesty the Empress.

"Get back on your feet!" Xiao Linglong smiled.

Gao Quan forced himself to calm down and walked forward to salute: "Your Majesty, please enter the city!"

Xiao Linglong nodded and walked forward with her hands behind her back, followed closely by the civil and military officials behind her. There was a news that had been circulating among them.

The Yuanjiang County governed by Zhao Kang is very impressive. It seems that today we can find out what the mystery is.

As soon as she entered the city, Her Majesty the Empress was stunned for a moment.

I saw a red carpet that was spread out for an unknown length, and the end could not be seen at a glance.

The people stood on both sides, each wearing new clothes, arranged in an orderly manner according to height, short, fat and thin.

As soon as they saw her, they all knelt down, and their movements were as uniform as if they had been rehearsed beforehand.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Xuance muttered excitedly from behind: "This is right."

His Royal Highness enjoyed such a huge battle.

Xiao Linglong glanced at Zhao Kang, who was standing beside her, and said in a low voice, "You do have your heart."

"It should be." Zhao Kang chuckled.

Xiao Linglong ignored him. She felt very happy when she thought that there was a place like Yuanjiang County in the Qian Kingdom where the happiness index of the people was so rich and prosperous: "Everyone should be safe."

The common people then stood up, and the leader, Brother Diao, said angrily: "Warmly welcome Her Majesty the Empress to inspect Yuanjiang County."

After speaking, he took the lead in applauding, and the group walked into the city amidst warm applause.

Zhao Kang walked beside Xiao Linglong and said softly: "Your Majesty has been tired from traveling all the way, and most of the civil and military officials are exhausted. Why don't you arrange accommodation and meals first?"

Xiao Linglong thought for a while and nodded: "That's how it should be."

Although she wanted to see the sweet potatoes in Zhao Kang's mouth right away, Zhao Kang was right. He was working so fast all the way that some veterans couldn't hold on anymore.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kang winked at Gao Quan, who immediately understood and started leading people to receive the group of important court officials behind him.

Zhao Kang took Xiao Linglong and his sister to the biggest and best hotel.

Lin Lang, the minister of Honglu Temple, looked at this scene and snorted with disdain.

What's the use of a big scene?In the end, I wonder how you can explain it to His Majesty if you can't get any food!
One by one, officials were placed in various restaurants by Gao Quan. The officials who didn't pay much attention at first were surprised as soon as they entered the restaurant.

"Old Master! Look, there is a well in this room!"

Taifu Zhao found Taishi Yang, his tone full of surprise.

Master Yang was suspicious: "How could there be a well in the room?" "Old Master, you will know when you come over and take a look."

Taifu Zhao squatted next to the toilet and marveled: "This is really strange. This is the first time I have seen such a well in all my years."

"Master, look at the rope here. As long as you pull the well, water will come out. It's really magical!"

The old teacher was shocked when he saw water gurgling in the toilet: "How on earth is this done?"

He always prided himself on being well-informed, but he had never seen this toilet before.

Just as he was wondering, Mr. Zhao had already taken a cup from the table, pulled the toilet cord, filled a glass of water, and tasted the well water in his eyes.

I saw Mrs. Zhao squinting his eyes and smacking his lips.

"It's so refreshing and sweet! I didn't expect that the water quality in Yuanjiang County is so good. It must taste very good when used to make tea."

Upon seeing this, the old master also tasted a cup, feeling that the fatigue from the long journey had been reduced a lot, and his face reflected: "Not bad, not bad, as sweet and sweet as mountain spring water. I didn't expect this inn in Yuanjiang County to have such an exquisite design. It shouldn’t be available in every room, right?”

He and Taifu Zhao are one of the three masters after all. If Zhao Kang has a keen eye, he should have made better arrangements.

Master Yang thought for granted.

Taifu Zhao said: "We will find out if we go and see the others."

The two of them left the room and went to the room of a third-grade official, and found that the other party was also studying the toilet, looking very interested.

This is an official from the Ministry of Industry.

When he saw the Grand Master and Master, he quickly saluted and humbly asked for advice: "Master and Master, come and see what this is. This is the first time I have seen it in my life."

Taifu Zhao said calmly: "Of course this is a well."

"That's it. I asked why water came out when I pulled it. It turned out to be a well. The master is really knowledgeable, and I admire him."

Master Yang smiled and said: "This is not an ordinary well. The water in the well is extremely sweet and can relieve fatigue."

Lang Guan was shocked when he heard this and nodded repeatedly.

As expected of the Sangong boss, this knowledge was beyond his own reach. After the two left, Lang Guan tasted the well water and nodded repeatedly.

Then he walked out of the room to find his colleagues and friends.

Gradually, the officials in the inn came to know that the white thing in the room that spewed water when pulled was a well.

Why do you think the wellhead can be so small? It must be to prevent people from falling in. What a thoughtful design of the inn!

Besides, the masters and masters all said it was a well!Then he must be the well!
Are you questioning these two adults?

A group of people who usually deal with national military and political affairs started arguing around a toilet, and finally found Master Yang.

I found that the two of them were tasting the well water one cup at a time.

At this time, Li Yuan, the Minister of the Ministry of War who lived in the inn next door, came to see it. It was quite lively.

"Gentlemen, is this a party?"

"By the way, lend me your toilet. The one in my room is broken." Li Yuan said and walked towards the toilet.

Mr. Zhao was confused: "What kind of toilet is it?"

"Isn't this just a toilet? This inn in Yuanjiang County is really novel. I felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach just now, so I searched around the room but couldn't find Gong Tong."

Li Yuan said with a smile: "I asked the waiter at the store and found out that this toilet is a toilet bucket. After using the toilet, just pull the rope to flush the dirt down the pipe."

"Don't look at me. Why are you standing still when I need to go to the toilet? By the way, what are you doing together?"

The Taifu Taishi silently put down the cup in his hand.

"Nothing, just chatting. Mr. Li, please help yourself."
