Chapter 1184 Qi People
Who is Cao Jie?
The commander-in-chief of the Spring Death Army of the Nine Soldiers of Qi, ranked in the Military Hall of Qi, ranked only below Jiang Mengxiong.
He is one of the true core figures of the military and an absolute top figure in Qi State.
In a sense, his attitude can represent the attitude of the military.
And what Cao Jie said... was too serious!
He almost pointed at Huang Yixing's nose, scolding him for being a petty person, scolding him for being a sycophant who could never change his old habits.
Although these words were not loud, they silenced the entire audience.
Although Huang Yixing's face was earth-colored, he was speechless. The other Hengyang County officials present were all staring at the uppers of their shoes, as if they were in a trance.
For a while, the gongs and drums stopped, and the fireworks and firecrackers did not dare to continue.
Only the little girl who presented flowers to Cao Jie sensed something was wrong, but she didn't quite understand what these adults were talking about.
Just remembering the instructions he received, he still walked forward and said timidly: "Commander... I will give you flowers."
After all, I forgot to give my congratulations.
His mouth tightened and he almost cried.
Cao Jiu took the flower, stretched out his hand to rub her head, and said with a smile, "Thank you."
The little girl completed her task and immediately smiled again.
Cao Jiu looked at Huang Yixing, with no angry expression on his face: "Send the children back. We will not stop in Hengyang County when the gift to the Ancestral Temple needs to be auspicious."
Huang Yixing woke up like a dream: "Hey, hey, good!"
This time he learned his lesson and turned around to say hello: "Invite the children and the elderly into the carriage and send them home first!"
The people below were busy for a while.
Tianfu's army ordered and prohibited, and stood silently.
The people watching the ceremony from Qi State who followed behind did not dare to touch the bad luck at this moment, and they all stayed in the carriage and remained silent.
The team waited until the carriage carrying the elderly and children from Hengyang County drove away before the team started moving forward.
But this time, only Hengyang County officials headed by Huang Yixing stood on both sides of the road to see off the convoy.
Jiang Wang returned to the carriage with no expression on his face.
He already knew what happened to Huang Yixing. After what happened today, he didn't care what would happen to Huang Yixing in the future.
As early as on the battlefield of Chiwei County, Chongxuan Chu Liang's evaluation of Huang Yixing only had four words - "treason for selling one's name".
At that time, Huang Yixing wanted fame, while Chu Liang, Chongxuan, wanted stability, so he gave Huang Yixing a name, not even caring about making his reputation more evil. Although people spread rumors that the murderous butcher was going to kill all the people in Yangland, Huang Yixing knelt down and blocked the butcher's knife.
In fact, only Huang Yixing, why should Zhongxuan Chu Liang's butcher knife be used?
Don't say "I will never kneel to others in my life, only to kneel for the common people." Even if he rolls around for the common people, slaps himself in the face for the common people, slaps himself in the face and beats himself to death...he will not frown.
It's just that Ji Tu put his sword into its sheath.
And now...
The earth of Yang has been settled, and the people of Yang have all returned to their hearts.
Huang Yixing's value has become smaller and smaller.
Perhaps because he knew this, he was eager to confirm the identity of Hengyang County Sheriff as soon as possible, fearing that he would be picked off at the last moment.
At least in the position of Hengyang County Sheriff, he is not so easily moved.
Cao Jie was angry because he was in charge of the government, but he encouraged children to do some flattery. He tolerated it once and couldn't bear it the second time, but this itself can also explain the attitude of the military hall towards this person.
Ji Cheng, who sacrificed his life for his country, created a lot of resistance for the Qi State, but in fact gained more respect from the soldiers of the Qi State.
Jiang Wang pities the old people who have lost their old country and find it difficult to regain their sense of belonging, but he has a hard time liking Huang Yixing, who is also an old man from Jiuyang.
And Zhong Xuanzun didn't get out of the car at all. Anyway, the people in Hengyang County warmly welcomed him, and it wasn't him who only came in second place...
The motorcade rumbled away, and the flag representing Qi gradually disappeared from sight.
Huang Yixing's head, which had almost dropped to his knees, slowly lifted up.
"Jiang Wang respects the elderly, while Cao Jie respects the young."
He smiled softly, grinding his teeth and said: "The proud and famous generals of the country are the backbone of their Qi country. I am the only one, Huang Yixing, who is a servile man, and I am not human inside or outside!"
"Sir..." the confidant official next to him advised.
Huang Yixing rolled his eyes: "Why, can't I tell you?"
He was a little out of control: "I can't even scold myself?!"
No one spoke.
…
…
The convoy passed through Hengyang County and continued moving forward.
Tian Antai, the governor of Rizhao County, also personally greeted him on the roadside, but he only had two followers and did not mobilize troops.
He didn't even block the road, but loudly said a few words of congratulations on the roadside.
Jiang Wang and Chong Xuanzun both came forward to thank him.
Interestingly, one of the attendants waiting with Tian Antai was Dugu Xiao, the current mayor of Qingyang Town.
It can be seen that Tian Antai is not an ignorant person. Since he took office, his management of Rizhao County has been obvious to all, and he is no worse than anyone else. It is even the most developed among the three counties.
Perhaps just because he was Tian Anping's brother, people placed too much... high expectations on him that shouldn't be given to him. That's why it seems mediocre.
Cao Jie's attitude towards this noble son of the Tian family was very kind, and he even got out of the car to say a few words to him.
Although Qingyang Town is decorated with lights and colorful decorations today, it is reasonable for He Feng to win the championship on the river platform. Cao Jie also joked and asked if he wanted to go to Qingyang Town to rest for a while, but Jiang Wang quickly refused.
Things have priorities, and it is important for people to know themselves.
Many people are ruined by "not knowing".
Among the three counties of Yangdi, Chiwei County, where Gao Shaoling is located, is not on the way of the returning team at all. He also only asked someone to send a congratulatory letter, which was handed over halfway, and he was very careful about the proportion.
It is true that the Jinghai Gao family is regarded by many as a nouveau riche, and even his background and accomplishments are looked down upon. But after all, Gao Shaoling is already Jinghai Gao's most capable talent, and he can't be much different.
In fact, after the convoy left Yangdi, Jiang Wang gradually felt more differences.
Although Yang Di has been naturalized, it is now Qi Di. But after all, so many years of history cannot be completely erased. There is still a big difference between Qidi and the previous one.
Dingyao, Yangshan, Fengxian, Cangzhu, Baolong...
Along the way, people all over the country crowded on the roadside enthusiastically and cheered. There is only joy, no timidity or fear.
The local soldiers were stationed on both sides of the road to maintain order, and no one came to stop the traffic. Only one or two local officials came to congratulate as representatives, and the congratulations from the local county governor were delivered directly to Linzi. There is no need to flatter anyone.
Whether a country is strong only depends on whether its citizens are confident.
The people of Yangdi still need more time to develop the temperament of a truly Qi people, and that is not their fault.
If the country is like this, the people can be like this.
Of course, if it is always governed by people like Huang Yixing, the bad habits may be difficult to eradicate.
Jiang Wang suddenly thought——
Is it because of this that a good-tempered person like Cao Ji suddenly got angry?
Changing customs is not a matter of three or two days.
Another thing worth mentioning is…
Many women from Qi bravely showed their affection for the proud man who returned home with great honors.
They were throwing flowers and fruits along the way, enthusiastic and generous.
All sachets and silk scarves were boldly thrown into the car.
After all, it is an elegant matter, and the soldiers who maintain order will not stop it.
And Zhong Xuanzun, who only took second place, had a better driving performance than Jiang Wang, who took first place!
After the convoy entered Qi Realm, Zhongxuan Sheng and Shi Shi got out of the car and returned to their cars in the viewing group. So there is no influence of other factors...
It must be that Qi people are too kind and don't hesitate to comfort the losers!
