Chapter 244: Chance encounter with Seeing Xiao He, guarding the auspicious signs

~4 min read 747 words

Judging by their attire, they were all officials of Sishui Commandery, and there should also be officials from Peixian.

This scene left Ying Ying Zi Ye stunned.

He hadn't asked anyone to welcome him.

Why had they all come?

"Zheng Min, Governor of Sishui Commandery, pays respects to the Ninth Prince!"

Zheng Min, leading a group of officials, welcomed Ying Ying Zi Ye at the city gate.

"We pay our respects to the Ninth Prince!"

The remaining officials all bowed deeply to Ying Ying Zi Ye.

After Ying Ying Zi Ye stepped out of the carriage, he looked at Zheng Min and the others, somewhat speechless.

"No need for formalities."

"Zheng Min, why did you bring so many people here?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at the group of people standing behind him.

He saw they were all looking at him with curiosity.

Zheng Min, upon hearing this, looked left and right; there were only twenty or thirty people, not many, right?

"Ninth Prince, they learned you were passing through this place and have long admired you, wishing to take the opportunity to witness the Ninth Prince's peerless demeanor."

"Your subordinate couldn't drive them away, so I had no choice but to let them welcome the Ninth Prince together."

Since they were already here, it wasn't easy to drive them away.

"Then let's enter the city first."

Ying Ying Zi Ye glanced at Wang Li, then at Han Xin.

"Wang Li, you come in with me."

"Han Xin, you arrange for the others to camp outside the city."

"It's not a war situation, let them relax a bit."

"If they want to go into the city to look around, that's fine, but they must not disturb the people and must not wear armor."

Ying Ying Zi Ye said, walking into the city.

"Understood!"

Wang Li walked behind Ying Ying Zi Ye, following him.

Han Xin turned and walked toward the direction of the soldiers.

At the County Magistrate's residence.

Zheng Min held a banquet to treat Ying Ying Zi Ye warmly.

Many local officials came.

Some minor officials didn't even have the qualifications to be seated.

After the meal.

Zheng Min invited Ying Ying Zi Ye to go to the fields to inspect the auspicious signs in person.

Based on the principle of not putting all eggs in one basket.

Zheng Min had not planted the original hundred jin of auspicious seeds together.

If the land wasn't fertile enough, or if for other reasons the hundred jin of seeds didn't survive, he would have to pay with his life.

He separated the seeds and planted them, so every county could get a little.

It just so happened that Peixian was not far from the capital of Sishui Commandery, so it also received some auspicious seeds.

Ying Ying Zi Ye thought for a moment; it didn't matter whether he looked or not.

He had already seen plenty along the way.

But since he was already here, it wouldn't hurt to take a look.

Subsequently, accompanied by a group of officials, Ying Ying Zi Ye began to inspect Peixian in person.

It was much the same as what he had seen on the road; the situation was excellent.

A sea of green, full of vitality.

Perhaps it was well-managed, or perhaps it was because they were planted earlier.

The sweet potatoes and potatoes in Sishui Commandery were much better than those in Kuaiji Commandery.

Before long, when the moment came for the sweet potatoes and potatoes to be harvested.

The food in Great Qin would reach the point of being inexhaustible!

Zheng Min personally led the Ninth Prince and others to a slightly smaller piece of land.

He saw soldiers guarding the surroundings.

These were grown from potato seeds.

They were not planted from sweet potato vines later on, so soldiers were dispatched to guard them.

Ying Ying Zi Ye was quite speechless to see soldiers guarding them.

The commoners who planted with sweet potato vines weren't seen having people guard them all day.

But thinking of the hundred thousand Commandant soldiers guarding the auspicious signs outside Xianyang, he couldn't say anything.

"Your subordinate Seeing Xiao He pays respects to Governor Zheng and all the lords."

A middle-aged man, along with the guarding soldiers, bowed to Ying Ying Zi Ye and the others.

Zheng Min nodded and didn't pay attention to Seeing Xiao He; at this time, Seeing Xiao He was just a Chief Clerk. ===== CHAPTER 246 =====
