In life, parting is inevitable, parting between family members, parting between friends, parting between lovers, and more parting between acquaintances.
It is rare to have a confidant in life, but no matter how good a confidant is, those who can always accompany each other are always a minority.
The appointment of Su Bai's transfer came a little faster than expected. On the tenth day after Mo He knew the news, the appointment of the dynasty came down. Su Bai's strength allowed Su Bai to jump through several levels at once, and took over the position of Lord of the House.
It's just that although he has crossed several levels at once, the place Su Bai needs to go to is not so good. His new post is in Haizhou.
Haizhou is the front line of the battle between the human race and the water dragon race. It is one of the places that are still relatively chaotic in the entire dynasty, and it is also one of the most difficult places to govern.
The entire state of Haizhou has a huge area, eight or nine times the size of an ordinary state, and this area is still expanding, all of which are gradually eaten away by the human race during the battle with the water dragon clan.
Haizhou is divided into more than ten prefectures, and the population is very large, and good and evil are mixed, with hundreds of disciples, disciples of various sects, scattered cultivators from all walks of life, etc., there are many strong people, and the local people are also tough folk, because the big Most of the people in Haizhou are the descendants of those soldiers in the army, or the descendants of the criminals who were sent to the army. The environment has created a strong folk custom in Haizhou. easy thing.
However, Su Bai's appointment has already been made, so it can't be changed anymore. The mansion where he will take over as the mansion is located a little behind Haizhou, and with the support of Marquis Su of Jin, it should be able to calm down the situation.
Not long after, the news that Su Bai was going to be transferred and left spread throughout Zi'an County, and the people in Zi'an County were very sad.
Although Su Bai has only been here for more than two years, he has done a lot of practical things and made the lives of ordinary people much better. Everyone is very reluctant to leave such a good county official.
Especially the local women who are waiting to marry in Zi'an County, many of them shed their faces with tears. After all, Su Bai, the county lord, is absolutely the best husband-in-law candidate in the hearts of the local women who are waiting to marry in Zi'an County.
He came from an extraordinary background, was full of talent, had a handsome face, and was personable, and was already a county lord at a young age. Looking at the entire Yuhe Mansion, he couldn't find a second candidate who was better than Su Bai.
In the past few days, the new county governor of Zi'an County has arrived, and after handing over some things, Su Bai will almost arrive, and it's time to leave.
The new Zi'an County Venerable is an old man who is no longer young. He was originally the magistrate of a county under the Qionghua Mansion. His official career has almost come to an end. If there are no special circumstances, he should stay in this position until he retires and returns home.
Su Bai was about to leave. In the past few days, he had already packed his things and was ready to leave today.
The best thing about this world is that it is very convenient to travel. You don’t need to bring so much cumbersome luggage, as long as you put it in the storage device, you can go on the road lightly.
This time he was going to Haizhou to take office, the route Su Bai took was similar to the route Mo He traveled the last time, he first arrived at Cangzhou through the Yuhe River, and then went all the way down the Wanjiang River to finally arrive at Haizhou.
Su Bai was accompanied by Uncle Zhou and dozens of guards. Among these dozens of guards, there were military personnel and chief officials from Zi'an County. The help of these two people is indispensable to quickly gain a foothold and govern with peace of mind. Now that he is leaving, he will naturally bring these two right-hand assistants with him.
"My lord Su is going to Haizhou. It's a long way. Please take care of yourself on the way. Your lord can become the lord of a family at such an age, and he will definitely stand above the court in the future. I am honored to be able to take over the post of Zi'an County lord, and I deeply appreciate it." I'm honored." The new Zi'an County Honorable accompanied Su Bai, and while walking towards the Yuhe Wharf, he said to Su Bai with a smile, in a very respectful tone.
He also knows that his official career has come to an end here, and the young man in front of him has just begun his official career. If there is no accident, this should be the biggest person he can meet in his life. Age, there is no need to curry favor with anyone, and he doesn't expect to be able to rise further, but years of habits make him still respectful to Shangguan.
Su Bai still maintained his good self-cultivation, facing the new Zi'an County Venerable, he was still polite, talking with him while walking, without neglecting him.
Soon, Su Bai arrived at the Yuhe Wharf. After arriving here, what he saw before his eyes was a sea of people on the wharf.
Local rich and powerful families, ordinary people in the city, and even many villagers in towns and villages all came here today, and everyone came to see Su Bai off.
And on the surface of Yuhe River, there is a small boat, Mo He is standing on this small boat, looking at Su Bai who is walking towards the pier.
Su Bai is leaving today, as a friend, he will naturally not be late, and Mo He wants to give Su Bai a ride.
Seeing the crowds of people in front of him, the newcomer Zi'an Xianzun's eyes flashed with envy. He has been in the officialdom for so many years, of course he understands that as an official, when he is leaving, so many people can see him off. How popular it is, it will be a good story in the imperial system in the future.
Seeing so many people bid farewell to him, Su Bai was also slightly moved. Before he could reach the crowd, he bowed to them from afar.
Seeing this, all the people at the scene, no matter what their identities, whether they were from wealthy families or local traffickers, all followed Su Bai's example and bowed back.
Seeing this scene on the boat, Mo He couldn't help secretly applauding in his heart. This is Su Bai's own charm. His good education since he was a child has already engraved these etiquettes in his bones, and will unconsciously affect others, even if He is a vulgar person, and when communicating with Su Bai, he will unconsciously put away some unreasonable actions.
"Please send me off, everyone!" After the ceremony, Su Bai stood up straight and said to the dark crowd in front of him with a smile on his face.
This time, there was a lot of noise answering him. All the people present said different things in one go, but they all expressed the same meaning.
"My lord, we don't want you to leave!"
"Master County, take care all the way!"
"Stay here, my lord!"
…
The voices of so many people were mixed together, and the scene seemed a bit chaotic. Su Bai could only stretch out his hand and make a gesture of pressing down, signaling for everyone to be quiet, and then all the people present were silenced.
The newly-appointed county magistrate of Zi'an County saw Su Bai's mere action, and all the people present were silent, and he couldn't help sighing in his heart. With such prestige in one place, he has not seen many officials who can achieve such prestige in this place in his life. .
"Thank you all, I am also reluctant to part with everyone and Zi'an County, but the appointment of the imperial court has been made, and I really have to leave. Thank you again for sending me off!" walked towards the pier.
Wherever I went, some people would give me some things from time to time. They were all not very valuable things, but they represented a simple friendship.
Of course, there are also some relatively different things, that is, the handkerchiefs, sachets and other things handed out by some young women who follow the rich and powerful.
Mo He, who was standing on the boat, saw Su Bai's expression when facing these things, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, no one is perfect, and Su Bai really looked a little clumsy when facing the matter of men and women.
Finally, Su Bai passed through the crowd. It felt as if he had passed through a layer of enemy siege. Facing the enthusiastic people who came to say goodbye, Su Bai was moved, but he still felt a little overwhelmed by everyone’s enthusiasm. .
Meanwhile, Uncle Zhou and the numerous guards following Su Bai were a little embarrassed at this time, because there were a lot of things hanging on them, and the common people were worried that Su Bai would not say what they sent, so they pushed all of them to them. in the arms.
After passing through the crowd, these guards found that they were not only covered with things, but also stuffed into the neckline of their sleeves.
But everyone was not unhappy, especially Uncle Zhou, who had a rare smile on his face.
As a retainer of Marquis Su of Jin, seeing that Su Bai was so loved by the common people, he only felt honored.
"Brother Mo!" Su Bai looked at Mo He who was standing on the boat smiling at him, and also showed a smile.
Su Bai felt that the biggest achievement in Zi'an County was that he made a real friend like Mo He. When he left, he was sent off by his friends, and at the same time so many people saw him off, which meant that his two years in Zi'an County were not in vain. .
"Before parting, I have a gift for you!" Seeing Su Bai walking in front of him, Mo He smiled slightly, then reached out to pat the storage bag, took out something from it, and handed it to Su Bai. before.
"What is it?" Su Bai took the thing in Mo He's hand and looked down. It seemed to be a big umbrella, but there were many names on the surface, and quite a few words were written crookedly. It looks like a baby's doodle.
However, from the big umbrella in his hand, Su Bai felt a familiar power. As a student of hundreds of schools, he was no stranger to this kind of power. thing.
"This is the Wanmin Umbrella. It has the autographs of more than half of the people in Zi'an County. Brother Su is going to Haizhou. I hope this umbrella can protect us!" Mo He said with a smile.
