Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 495 Walk all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

That evening, Gongsun Ce came to the detective agency.

When Gongsun Ce came, he was all smiles, making his demeanor even more luxurious.

Hua Lang greeted Gongsun Ce and sat down, and said, "Mr. Gongsun is all smiles, is there any happy event?"

Gongsun Ce nodded again and again, and said: "Master Bao asked me to calculate the date of marriage for the two of you. I have already calculated that the day after tomorrow is suitable for marriage, and there is no wind on that day and the weather is fine."

Hearing that they could get married the day after tomorrow, Hua Lang was overjoyed, and said again and again: "Then Mr. Lao Gongsun, thank you very much!"

Gongsun Ce got up and cupped his hands, and said, "Brother Hua, you are welcome, I will go back and tidy up, there is no need for Brother Hua to worry about everything."

The evening sun is warm, the wind is gentle, and people's hearts are happy. Everything makes people like it inexplicably.

After such a night of silence, after everyone woke up the next day, they wanted to go to the state government office to see how Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce were preparing for Hualang's wedding.

The state office was much busier than before. When they entered the state office, they did not see Zhang Long and Zhao Hu. According to the dynasty, the two of them went to the suburbs to choose a place for tomorrow.

Hua Lang nodded, and then went to see Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng was in the study, but he was reading a letter. He saw Hua Lang coming, so he said with a smile: "Brother Hua came just in time, and he will accompany me to pick up someone later. .”

Hwarang is a bit disdainful of picking up people, because he has no intention of flattering, and he says he has no intention of flattering, because he knows very well that the person who needs Bao Zheng to pick him up must be someone of unusual status.

Although Hua Lang was disdainful, he felt that Bao Zheng had done him such a great favor, and if he didn't go, it would be a little ruthless, so he tentatively asked, "I don't know who it is, but troubled Mr. Bao to greet him personally?"

Hearing Hualang's question, Bao Zheng smiled and said, "My friend of Bao Zheng, Wen Yanbo."

As Bao Zheng said, he handed the letter in his hand to Hwarang, but when Hwarang took it, his hands trembled a little. Of course, it wasn't because he was too nervous, but because he was too surprised. He heard that Bao Zheng had a bosom friend, but he didn't expect it to be Wen Yanbo.

Wen Yanbo served as the prime minister of the four dynasties of the Northern Song Dynasty, and was known as the No.1 Prime Minister of the Great Song Dynasty. He was the only one in the Northern Song Dynasty who could have this honor. There are too many things about him, but when Hwarang heard this name, his mind suddenly I became so confused that I couldn't remember it. I only remembered reading a story about Wen Yanbo's childhood when I was in school.

I remember the story of filling a floating ball with water. The ball fell into the hole, so Wen Yanbo poured water into the hole, the ball floated out, and he got the autumn. Wen Yanbo seemed to be very young at that time. After the incident, everyone said he was smart.

Of course, Hwarang also knows one thing, Wen Yanbo and Bao Zheng were Jinshi in the same year, but Bao Zheng was idle for a few years because of his old mother, so that when Bao Zheng was the county magistrate of Tianchang County, Wen Yanbo was already in the office. The imperial court is very important.

Hwarang took the letter and read it carefully, the content written on it was very ordinary, like a conversation between two old friends, it had nothing to do with status or condescension.

Hwarang felt that it was necessary to greet such a person in person.

Hualang smiled: "So it's Brother Bao's good friend, but why did Master Wen suddenly think of a place like Duanzhou? I heard that he is now a supervisory official, right?"

Bao Zheng nodded: "That's right, but he didn't say anything in the letter. He thought he was passing through Duanzhou, so he came to see me. Never mind, let's pick him up first. I mentioned you to him before. I just want to see you."

Not knowing what it feels like to be missed by someone like Wen Yanbo, Hwarang smiled faintly.

After getting ready, Bao Zheng, Hua Lang and the others went to the gate of Duanzhou city to welcome them. After about an hour, there was a sudden burst of rumble in the distance, as if a large group of people were coming. Soon, Guards of honor, carriages, and accompanying soldiers appeared on the avenue of Duanzhou City. After seeing this situation, Hua Lang and Bao Zheng were a little shocked. If Wen Yanbo just came to see his old friends, why should he be so grandiose? It's not as simple as looking at old friends.

When the people arrived, Bao Zheng, Hua Lang and others rushed forward to greet them. At this time, a man about 30 years old got off the carriage, and behind him was a boy in his twenties. He has a demeanor, and gives people a sense of prudence and wisdom. If you think about it, he is Wen Yanbo, but Bao Zheng and Hua Lang don't recognize the young man behind him. But there is also a romantic rhyme.

When Wen Yanbo saw Bao Zheng, he suddenly quickened his pace, and Bao Zheng was even more so. After the two met, they supported each other with both arms.

You two said Brother Wen, he said Brother Bao, and then each said it has been a long time since they met.

After the exchange of pleasantries between the two, Bao Zheng immediately introduced: "This is Brother Hua that I often mention in my letters, this is Mr. Gongsun, this is Wen Meng, my righteous sister..."

After such an introduction, Wen Yanbo praised him again and again, and said: "Brother Bao has so many talented people to help him, it's hard not to manage Duanzhou City well, come on, let me introduce to you the person next to me, this The first one is Nangong Qiong, who was ranked second in the Imperial Examination and was deeply loved by the Emperor, and she was assigned a great job by the Emperor as soon as she passed the Jinshi."

After Wen Yanbo introduced Nangong Qiong in this way, Nangong Qiong hurriedly bowed to Bao Zheng, saying: "I used to hear that Master Bao is famous in Qingtian, and seeing him today is really a blessing."

Bao Zheng smiled, and said: "You are welcome, Nangong, you are a Jinshi, ranked second in the imperial examination, and then you were appointed by the emperor to be an important task. It can be said that you are proud of the spring breeze, and you have trampled on all the flowers in Chang'an in one day!"

Nangong Qiong was modest, and then Wen Yanbo, Nangong Qiong and others followed Bao Zheng into Duanzhou City, while those people set up camp in the suburbs of the city.

Everyone entered Duanzhou Prefecture Government Office, Bao Zheng immediately asked: "I heard that Brother Wen is the supervisory censor, why did he come to my Duanzhou?"

Wen Yanbo smiled and said: "You are an old friend, I will not hide anything from you, the thing is like this, during the Spring Festival, the king of Dali Kingdom came to pay homage, the emperor thought that I was a great country in the Song Dynasty, a state of etiquette, No matter what, I had to pay my respects once, so I appointed me and Jinke the second place, with gifts and troops to go to Dali, passing through Duanzhou on the way, you and I haven’t seen each other for several years, and I wanted to come and see you.”

When Wen Yanbo said this, Bao Zheng and others all understood. He had heard that the Dali Kingdom highly respected Han culture and had always been on good terms with the Song Dynasty. worry.
