Just on the Butterfly Creek, a certain Xie girl caught up with the big ship and boarded it in a boat.

At the foot of Dagushan Mountain in the east, Ouyang Rong had a flash of inspiration and had already immersed himself in running towards Songlin Crossing in the north.

Ouyang Rong didn't know whether the method that flashed in his mind would allow him to rush to Di Gongzha in advance to stop Liu Ziwen's conspiracy, or catch up with the "fairy" pretending to be him in time.

But right now, he can only give it a try.

In fact, Ouyang Rong felt that it was not very important who the so-called "fairy" pretending to be him.

What is fake is fake after all and cannot see the light of day. What really worries Ouyang Rong is the ribbon-cutting ceremony conspiracy planned by Liu Ziwen behind it.

The three strategies he introduced when he just came down from the mountain are the real killing methods.

Because this can make the fake become real and put a nail on his coffin, even if Ouyang Rong is still alive and well and not dead yet.

But if he arrives at Di Gong Gate a step too late, a big mistake will be made and Liu Ziwen's conspiracy will succeed.

Even if Ouyang Rong showed up at the scene later, it would be difficult for him to put an end to the crime in the face of countless witnesses and the Liu family's rebellion.

Just when Ouyang Rong was panting, he ran all the way to the pine forest crossing.

What he doesn't know is.

Not long after he left, a group of more hurried figures also appeared at the foot of Dagushan Mountain.

The one at the head was a policeman in blue. With an anxious look on his face, he led a team of police officers to rush up the mountain.

It looked like he was in a great hurry.

…

Yue Nu Gorge, Di Gong Gate.

Since the morning sun has just set on the newly built sluice embankment.

The campsites on the river beach near Dickong Gate gradually became lively.

Rural sages, powerful and wealthy businessmen, famous scholars, some officials from Longcheng County and surrounding counties, etc., etc.

People from all over the country rushed to Dee Gong Gate to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

It's like a cold furnace that is filled with charcoal shovel by shovel, turning it from a small flame into a scorching furnace.

The atmosphere at the scene gradually became heated.

Di Gong Gate is located at a strategic location in Yunmengze upstream, and will bear the brunt of every flood in Yunmengze.

The completion of this gate will benefit the entire Jiangzhou, not only Longcheng, Xingzi, Jishui, Hukou and other counties.

Therefore, the Longcheng County government and the Liu family, who jointly built the gate, not only invited people from their own county, but also prestigious gentry groups from several other counties.

Now, these guests have arrived as scheduled today to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

In addition, of course, there are also the labor of craftsmen repairing the gates and the people of Longcheng who are happily watching the excitement.

All the food and drink expenses for today's ribbon-cutting ceremony were borne by the Longcheng County Government and the Liu family, which can be regarded as having fun with the people.

Before noon, nearly a thousand people gathered at the river beach camp next to Dickong Gate.

Of course, the most important guests today are the two Shangguan officials from Jiangzhou.

Supervisor Mr. Shen and the new Jiangzhou Governor Mr. Wang.

Naturally, many guests have known this for a long time.

It is now almost noon, and Magistrate Ouyang and his party who went to pick up the two Jiangzhou officials have not arrived yet.

But among the many guests and craftsmen waiting in the camp, not many expressed complaints.

Arriving late is Shangguan's exclusive privilege.

Ouyang Rong is not here, so this morning it was Diao County Cheng who presided over the ribbon-cutting ceremony and entertained the guests.

Under the enthusiastic auspices of Diao Xiancheng, the atmosphere in the camp was cheerful and harmonious.

On the river beach of the camp, a high platform decorated with ribbons and wreaths was being erected.

This is the high platform that was built last time when the Dragon King Temple congratulators held a gate-washing ceremony. Now it has just been renovated and used for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Under the high platform, there are wine tables arranged regularly, and now the tables are almost full of people.

Diao County Prime Minister stood on the high platform and looked down. There were crowds of people and noisy discussions.

However, with his elegant appearance and long sleeves, he was quite adaptable to the gazes cast from below, and seemed to be at ease with himself.

But today, Diao Xiancheng is not completely free to express himself.

At a certain moment, the old county magistrate quietly touched somewhere in his arms. There was a piece of jute paper folded into a square shape.

In the morning, the dull man named Liu Ashan who worked for the Ming Dynasty handed it to him.

Above are some of the ribbon-cutting ceremony arrangements made by the Ming Dynasty.

Although Diao Xian Cheng was a little surprised by certain items after reading the process arranged by the Ming government, he adhered to the principle of asking less and doing more, so he did not talk too much and just followed the commander's instructions...

With this thought, Diao County Cheng took a sweat handkerchief from his subordinate's hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead under his black gauze hat.

He looked up at the sky, turned back and clapped his hands at the audience and said with a smile:

"Everyone, please be patient and wait for a while. According to the procedure, if there is no delay on the way, Mingfu and the two Shangguan should be here soon.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Wang is doing justice and has come all the way without even having lunch.

"As soon as they arrive, we will have a luncheon immediately to take care of the two superior officials. The ribbon-cutting ceremony will be in the afternoon. Let's eat well first, but we can't make you hungry. When we get back, we will talk about our Longcheng County government office.

Stingy.

"Hahaha, today the official specially invited the chef from Yuanming House in the county. Friends from other counties must try the specialties of our Longcheng County..."

The Prime Minister of Niudiao County of the old society spoke eloquently on the stage.

Many of the people in the audience seemed to be listening and laughing together.

However, there are some people who don't give much face.

"That's a lot of nonsense."

At a table on the left side of the first row near the high platform, Liu Zilin curled his lips and was too lazy to listen.

He frowned and turned around, a little worried and said:

"Brother, second brother, why haven't they come yet? Is there something wrong with the Jade Fairy and the others? I always feel a little uneasy about whether the swordsman named Ajie is reliable."

Compared to the third young master of the Liu family, Liu Ziwen and Liu Zian, who were sitting at the same table, seemed much calmer.

Liu Zian turned his head and silently watched Diao Xiancheng speak on the stage without answering.

Liu Ziwen sat upright in the sun and closed his eyes, closing his eyes to rest his mind, and said:

"You need to change your impatience. You get irritable like a monkey when something happens. All your emotions are written on your face. How can you do big things in the future?"

Liu Zilin said nonchalantly: "As long as the eldest and second brothers are here, I can just follow you. I don't need to use my brain."

Liu Ziwen shook his head slightly, as if he had nothing to say.

At this moment, a large boat was slowly moored at the ferry in the distance outside the camp, and soon a group of people stepped off and appeared.

Although they were still far away, some scribes trotted up to the high platform of the camp and reported to the Prime Minister of Diao County:

"Master Diao, the Ming Mansion has brought Master Shen and Master Wang here. Have a pleasant trip."

Diao Xiancheng's eyes lit up, and all the guests listening attentively in the audience also became restless.

Liu Ziwen slowly opened his eyes.

"Follow me, everyone."

Diao Xiancheng led all the guests in the audience to greet Ouyang Rong and others.

Liu Ziwen also stood up with his two younger brothers and followed silently.

I saw in front of me, Diao County Magistrate leading everyone to meet with the dusty Magistrate Ouyang, Master Shen and Master Wang at the gate of the camp.

The three Liu Ziwen brothers stood quietly behind the crowd, not looking down.

Silently listening to the introductions and polite greetings from the two groups in front.

The topic was naturally those official accents and those who patted Shangguan horses.

It fell into the ears of Liu Ziwen and others, and they naturally felt bored. They deliberately fell behind in the back row, but they didn't have to laugh with the people in the front row.

The eyes of the three Liu Ziwen brothers all fell calmly on Magistrate Ouyang, who was in the center of the crowd and was wearing a light green official uniform.

They still have their very familiar faces and calm expressions.

It's just that the face that they begged for in the past has some special senses in the eyes of Liu Ziwen and the others.

I saw that Magistrate Ouyang seemed to be quieter than usual today. His eyes occasionally glanced at the surrounding crowd, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Moreover, he did not join Master Diao in flattering Jiangzhou Shangguan.

Liu Ziwen and Liu Zian looked at each other and then looked away.

At this moment, Liu Ziwen and the others saw that Magistrate Ouyang in the center of the crowd turned his head and glanced in their direction.
