Chapter 1642 Entering the city
After Wu Guan and his companions entered the city, they first found an inn to stay in and then contacted each other later.
On March 11, Shao Yunduan, accompanied by his wife and subordinates, finally arrived at Anzezhou City by car in the afternoon.
From a distance, you can see the gray city wall of neither high nor low. All around you can see rolling hills and lush forests. In late spring, the trees and grass are lush, making the scenery seem even more secluded and mysterious.
Surrounded by mountains, such a gray city looks even more lonely, desolate and bleak.
I don't know if it was because of preconceived ideas, but when people looked at the city wall, the flying yellow earth, and the bumpy official road, they subconsciously felt a sense of desolation and gloom.
Even if the sun is shining, people still feel subconsciously nervous.
After all, this is a den of bandits!
The city of Anzezhou is large, but the population does not seem to be large. There are only a few pedestrians and carriages on the official roads in and out of the city gate, making it look very deserted.
In such a deserted environment, the six carriages carrying Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan and their group stood out.
Anyone who passed by them couldn't help but take a few more glances out of curiosity.
When the convoy finally arrived at the city gate, the few sparse soldiers guarding the city also looked over intently.
Just as their carriage was about to enter the city, several soldiers moved.
"stop!"
They dragged their rusty long tasseled spears loosely, swaggering forward with full of arrogance, and surrounded the most luxurious carriage that Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were riding in.
"Everyone in the car, get out!"
Shao Yunduan was too lazy to play any of those tricks of hiding his identity or making secret visits with them. To deal with these people, if he really wanted to catch them with their weak points, he would definitely catch a lot of them. There was no point in hiding his identity and catching them in the act of bullying.
Instead, it brought down his own official authority.
Lixia lifted the carriage curtain, and Shao Yunduan unfolded a document and rushed towards them: "I am the newly appointed prefect. Two people, lead the way and take me to the government office!"
“.…..”
Several soldiers opened their eyes wide and were stunned.
The driver, Sun Bai, flicked his wrist, and the dark whip whistled in the air like a spirit snake, drawing a beautiful and sharp arc. He shouted in a deep voice: "How dare you! You don't even show respect when you see the prefect?"
These soldiers were illiterate, but they were government officials after all and had seen the style of official letters.
Besides, no one is crazy enough to make such a joke in broad daylight.
They all knew that the new governor would be arriving soon, but no one expected that he would come to the city in such a low-key manner...
After being scolded by Sun Bai, several people were startled and knelt down hurriedly: "Greetings, sir!" "Greetings, sir!"
With only six people, they managed to create the illusion of noise and bustle, which is acceptable.
Shao Yunduan: "Get up!"
Then he casually pointed at the two people in front and said, "You two, lead the way. The others go back and stand guard."
“Uh… yes!”
Several soldiers were a little confused, and some were leading the way, some were standing guard, in a stupid manner.
The carriage continued to move forward.
The four people standing guard looked at each other, and were still a little dizzy.
Why do I feel that this prefect is different from other prefects?
Moreover, you let them off so easily?
"Hey, what are you doing standing there? Go and tell them the news!"
"Oh, yes!"
