Chapter 520 is a good scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and the season of falling flowers is another time

The Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi has a poem: Bianshui flows, Surabaya flows. It flows to the ancient ferry head of Guazhou. Wu Shan was a little worried. Think about it, hate it. Hate until you return. The moonlight people leaned on the building.

The Surabaya mentioned in the poem is the inland river of Yangzhou City, which runs through the city from north to south, joins the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and then goes all the way south to the Guazhou ferry on the Yangtze River.

At noon, the Qinchalou boat flying the dragon flag of the Xuanhuang Regiment appeared at the Surabaya River wharf in the north of Yangzhou City. If it is an ordinary cargo boat, it can enter Yangzhou City through the sluice under the city wall, but the hull of the Qinchalou ship is too large and can only dock at the wharf outside the city.

Xu Jin had also been to Yangzhou in his previous life, but he had traveled through five hundred years of time and space, but the Yangzhou City in front of him was completely different, but he saw that the city was towering, surrounded by moats on all sides, and the willows on the riverside were still around, and the river was rippling with blue waves. The stone arch bridge, Huanxi girl, is full of the ancient charm of the water town.

There is no doubt that this is a prosperous and wealthy ancient city, a beautiful ancient city soaked in poetry, and its grass, trees, pavilions and bridges have been written into the poems by the poet.

For example: the spring breeze is ten miles of Yangzhou Road, and it is better to roll up the red scroll.

For example: on the moonlit night of the twenty-fourth bridge, where does the jade teach.

For example: the twenty-four bridges are still there, the waves are swinging, and the cold moon is silent. Reading the red medicine by the bridge, who is born every year?

With a soft bang, the Qinchalou boat docked, Wang Lin'er and Qi Jingtong led the brothers of the 500 battalion to take the lead in going ashore to open the way, all the mandarin duck battle jackets and standard hats, in addition to the waist knife, but also carrying a new type of flintlock pistol, the fierce atmosphere made the local gentry waiting on the dock, as well as the yacha who maintained order, awe-inspiring, and at the same time curiously looked at the flintlock pistols carried by the soldiers of the 500 battalion.

The flintlock pistol is a new weapon, and so far, only five hundred battalions in the entire Ming Dynasty, and even in the whole world, have been equipped with this thing, and even many Beijing officials have never seen it, let alone local people.

Just as the local officials and gentry of Yangzhou City were looking awe-inspiringly, Xu Jin, who was wearing a cyan five-grade official uniform, calmly stepped down from the boat, and beside him was Xia Yan, the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission.

It is said that Xia Yan was chosen by Xu Jin himself as the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission, and this time the little emperor did not send an internal official to accompany him to supervise, which also shows his trust in Xu Jin.

Seeing a young and handsome young official get off the boat surrounded by Jinyiwei, Yangzhou Governor Jiang Ping's eyes flashed with a touch of complexity, and he solemnly flipped the sleeves of his official robe, and then took the subordinate officials to step forward and salute, saying: "Yangzhou Governor Jiang Ping has seen two Qincha adults. ”

Jiang Ping is about forty-five years old, with a round head and a round face, a big belly, and a very rich state, this image is worthy of the fat shortage of Yangzhou prefect. However, Jiang Zhifu was not the richest among the officials present, and there was an official in a scarlet robe next to him, and his belly was one size bigger than Jiang Ping.

Xu Jin smiled and nodded, "Lord Jiang doesn't have to be polite. ”

At this time, the scarlet-robed official next to him, who seemed to be pregnant for ten months, also saluted: "This official has transferred salt to Shi Haoran, and I have seen two Qincha lords. ”

The Salt Envoy Department and the Salt Section Promotion Division are both local managers in charge of the salt industry, directly subordinate to the Central Household Department, and the number one leader of the Salt Envoy Department is called the Salt Envoy, which is simply a salt envoy, who is a senior official from the third grade, whose rank is higher than that of the prefect, and his subordinates are in charge of an armed force, that is, Yanding, who really wants power and power, money and money, and soldiers.

The salt envoy has always been full of oil and water, especially the Yangzhou salt envoy, I don't know how many people are red-eyed, and they can't sit in this position without a little background, this Shi Haoran is not simple.

Xu Jin returned the salute quietly: "Lord Shi is polite." ”

Strictly speaking, Xu Jin, the five-grade household Langzhong, if he didn't have the identity of Qincha, he would have to call people a Shangguan respectfully.

At this time, the subordinate officials under the rule of Yangzhou Mansion also stepped forward to salute according to the size of their official positions, greeted each other politely for a while, and then entered the city together.

Most of the official offices of the city will be built in the north of the city, but Yangzhou City is not, because the Surabaya River passes through the city from north to south, almost located on the central axis of the entire city, so Yangzhou City is bounded by the Surabaya River, and the official offices are concentrated in the west of the city, and the east of the city is the main place for the people to live and move.

Surrounded by magistrates, Qin Cha and his entourage crossed the Tongsi Bridge and came to Chengxi Street. But see the government office, the county government, the salt transport envoy, the warehouse and other buildings are all built near the river, the streets are paved with granite, there are large and small wharves by the river, rows and rows of green willows are reflected in the clear river water, and it is beautiful.

At this time, the boats on the river shuttled back and forth, and there were many flower boats moored on the wharf, the sound of playing the piano and drums floated over from time to time, and there were many graceful and flowery women walking around on the boat.

Seeing Xu Jin standing on the side of the bridge and looking at the flower boats on the wharf, all the local officials and gentry showed meaningful smiles, and Jiang Ping, the prefect of Yangzhou, and Shi Haoran, the salt transportation envoy, glanced at each other with great pleasure.

Although Xu Jin is young, he has a good reputation, and last year he investigated the granary deficit case in Shandong, killing people a lot, and finally almost gave the Shandong officialdom a pot, and even the military and political leaders were not spared, and Xu was beheaded worthy of the name.

This time, Xu Jin came to Zhizhejiang and Zhejiang to preside over the land of Qingzhang with the sword of Shang Fang in his hand, and the local gentry were nervous, for fear of touching the moldy head of Xu's beheading, but let them honestly cooperate with Xu Jin to re-clear the land and spit out the fat that they ate, which was really unwilling.

So at this time, seeing that Xu Jin was suspected of being interested in the flower boats on the river, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, hehe, this Xu Qincha seems to be a good fisherman, so it's easy to do, Yangzhou is a place of fat powder that is drunk and gold, and I don't dare to say anything else, but there is more money and more beautiful women. When the time comes, he will do what he likes, and he will be allowed to teach him to be happy, and the matter of clearing the land will naturally be fooled.

Xia Yan, the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission next to him, frowned and coughed lightly to remind.

Xu Jin retracted his gaze and smiled indifferently, pointing to the flower boat at the wharf not far away: "The spring breeze is ten miles of Yangzhou Road, it is better to roll up the red curtain." The ancients did not deceive me! ”

All the officials and gentry laughed when they heard this, and a gentleman with two mouse's whiskers sneered and said: "Lord Qincha of the Good Sect learned that our Yangzhou is the land of gold dust of the past dynasties, and how can it be in vain." Hey, anyway, Lord Qincha is here in time this time. ”

Xu Jinqi said: "How do you say this? ”

Seeing that Xu Jin was so easy to speak, another gentry interjected with a smile: "Lord Hui Qincha, the major Qinglou in the south of the Yangtze River will elect the top ten prostitutes and oiran every year, and this year's Oiran Contest will be held in our Yangzhou." Famous prostitutes from Qinhuai and Fujian and Zhejiang will participate, and there will be a large number of beauties. With Lord Xu's appearance and talent, if you come to watch the game, you may be able to capture the hearts of countless beauties! ”

All the officials and gentry laughed ambiguously, and Xu Jin also smiled lightly: "That official must participate when the time comes, huh......"

Xu Jin suddenly sighed lightly, and looked at a flower boat in the distance, at this time, a woman got off the boat like the stars holding the moon, this woman was wearing a pink dress, her body was graceful, and she was combing the popular hairpin butterfly bun. Because it was a little far away, his face couldn't be seen too really, but Xu Jin felt faintly familiar.

Xie Erjian had good eyesight, and subconsciously said, "My lord, this is not the ...... Who...... Wang Cuiqiao? ”

Xu Jin woke up suddenly, this woman is the famous prostitute Wang Cuiqiao of Qinhuai who he had met at the Tengwang Pavilion in Nanchang back then, strictly speaking, this woman was not a famous prostitute at that time, but a rising star cultivated by the Qinglou to which she belonged, and the top card was still that Xiao Yuxue.

It is said that Xu Jin was preparing to participate in the hospital examination at that time, but he was fooled by Tang Bohu's old prostitute to see Xiao Yuxue, and was finally tied up by the prince of Ning Wang into Ning Wang's mansion.

Yangzhou Governor Jiang Ping laughed and said: "It's still a young man with good eyes, you have recognized it in this house, this woman is indeed the king." It is said that the Wang family became famous with Lord Xu's "Linjiang Immortal". ”

Shi Haoran licked his lips and said with a smile: "Dare to love Lord Xu and Wang are old acquaintances, come here, go and invite Wang to come and meet your lord." ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly, this Wang Cuiqiao was just a yellow-haired girl back then, and now she is mixed into "Wang Family", and hurriedly said: "Master Shi, no need." ”

Shi Haoran slapped his forehead and laughed: "That's right, Lord Xu is in the dust at the moment, so let's settle down and bathe and freshen up first, so as to save the beauty from being abrupt." ”

All the officials and gentry immediately laughed, although the atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty was not as open as the Tang and Song dynasties, but the officials and prostitutes were not a shameful thing, especially in the rich Jiangnan region, it was even more common for the prostitutes to drink flower wine.

The prefect of Jiang and other officials and gentry looked ambiguous, and it is estimated that they all thought that Xu Jin and Wang Cuiqiao were good friends. Xu Jin couldn't help but be speechless, but he didn't bother to explain, and continued to move forward, but there was a little bit of amazement in his heart.

It is said that this Wang Cuiqiao is the most beautiful woman Xu Jin has ever seen when he came to Daming, when he first met in Nanchang, this woman was still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and her appearance has been able to hit ninety-point, if it is not crooked in the past few years, it is estimated that it can reach ninety-five points.

As the so-called love for beauty is common to everyone, Xu Jin is naturally no exception, for this Wang Cuiqiao, Xu Jin admires it very much, this woman's personality and appearance are the best choices, but unfortunately she has fallen into the dust.

After so many years, Wang Cuiqiao has become a rising star to a Wang family, mentioning the word "everyone", Xu Jin thought of Xiao Yuxue and Xiao everyone, obviously selling their art and not selling their bodies, in fact, as long as the price is in place, they will sell more thoroughly than anyone else.

Thinking that this pure and quiet girl in Qingcheng may have become a "everyone" like Xiao Yuxue, Xu Jin couldn't help but feel a little regretful, of course, that's all! (https:)
