Chapter 1138 - Calling the Door Should Not Be
At dusk, dozens of horsemen crossed the west bank of the river, and Chang Yu took ten taels of silver and handed it to Wei Changde: "I'm tired."
Wei Changde has long lost his previous anger, and his face is full of smiles, and it is not that he does not answer: "My lord, this, it should be regarded as a ...... for the brothers."
Chang Yu stuffed the silver into his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "The heart is received by the official, but trading is buying and selling, and you can't let the brothers work hard for half a day in vain, besides, the court has rules, and the officers and soldiers don't take a stitch from the masses!" ”
Belch...... Wei Changde's face was stunned: "The imperial court still has this rule? I haven't heard of it."
"Soon this rule will be known to the whole world," Chang Yu arched his hand, turned over and rode straight to the sunset.
As the sun set, Chang Yu and his entourage arrived outside Yanzhou City at the beginning of twilight, but they were a step slower, and the city gate was closed!
This...... It's too early, it's the height of summer at this time, the daytime is long, even if the sun sets, the sky can still be bright for a while, but this Yanzhou City can't wait for this meeting, and the city gate is closed early.
Chang Yu asked people to call the door, but the person on duty inside said angrily: "The door is closed, tomorrow is early."
"We are from the capital......" Before the words were finished, he directly said: "It doesn't matter where you came from, don't you understand people, it's closed, it's closed."
Oh, what a big temper, he scolded forward, and even showed his identity, but there was no sound inside, and he was directly ignored!
The dignified Admiral of Dongchang was turned away, but he reported that no one at home had anyone to bird him, Chang Yu couldn't turn his head to look at Wu Zhong with tears and laughter: "The name of this governor is not easy to use."
"It's no wonder they," Wu Zhong actually spoke for the people in the city. Chang Yu was stunned, and then realized that this was all a psychological shadow caused by previous years.
The Qing army has twice plundered Shandong on a large scale, Yanzhou is the key target of the city where the vassal king is located, and finally broke the city to loot the palace, in addition to the regional folk factors, Shandong thieves are as many as cattle hair, these thieves are pervasive and very bold, often go outside the city to plunder the villages and towns, not to mention, some will even sneak into the city to do evil.
After two years of recuperation, Yanzhou City has just recovered some vitality, so it is natural to be cautious and cautious, fire prevention, theft prevention and thieves.
Looking at Chang Yu's group of dozens of horsemen, who dares to be sure whether they are thieves or soldiers.
That being the case, they stayed overnight outside the city, so everyone camped under the city and caught fire, which caused the city patrol to be vigilant, and they looked around from time to time, and Chang Yu and others didn't bother to explain.
There are many villages near the city, and Chang Yu and Chen Wangting wander around them, chatting with the villagers from time to time, and inadvertently releasing some news.
Those villagers didn't know their origins, and they were originally a little afraid, but when they saw that others were kind, the more they chatted, the more speculative they became, and their words were also tempting, Chang Yu did not hide it, saying that he was ordered to go south, and he passed through Yanzhou to do some business, but he had to stay outside the city because the city gate was closed.
It turned out that the officers and soldiers in the capital were no wonder that the discipline was so good, and the villagers invited him home to be a guest when they saw that he was kind and sweet, but Chang Yu refused again and again, and finally went to a house.
This is just an ordinary people's house, although it is better than the kind of family with four walls encountered on the road, but it is also extremely poor and cannot afford any decent food to entertain guests.
One pot of porridge, one serving of pickles, two boiled eggs.
Chang Yu ate two bowls of porridge, two eggs, and then gave ten taels of silver! The host knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed to thank him.
When the Yanzhou Mansion City was built, the water from the Sihe River was diverted through the city from east to west, so the east and west city gates each had a water gate, Chang Yu's people camped near the water gate, lit a bonfire to burn game, and went down to the river to fish and play, but it was bitter for the girl Lianxin, a group of shirtless old men even had to swim in the river and bathe, so that she was embarrassed by a girl, hiding in the car and not daring to get down, but the car was hot to death.
In the end, it was still two licking dogs, and the Chen brothers found a family for her in a nearby village to spend the night and wash their bodies and change their clothes, in order to ensure their safety, the brothers kept vigil outside the family.
It just so happened that Chang Yu was a guest in this village, and when he left, he saw the two of them, and after asking about the situation, he smiled helplessly, and Chen Wangting glared at the brothers and sighed, but he couldn't say anything, these brothers were originally the personal servants who protected the little eunuch, but now they are ...... It's used to pick up girls.
The first thing Chang Yu did when he returned to the camp was to jump into the river and take a refreshing bath, and when he went ashore, Wu Zhong handed over a skewer of barbecue, took it and ate it, it was tender and delicious: "What kind of meat?" ”
"Snake meat" Wu Zhong replied casually, and saw that the little eunuch had rushed to the river to vomit.
"As for it, it's not a mouse" Wu Zhong pouted and rolled his eyes, Chen Wangting smiled and turned his head sideways and whispered: "Tell you a secret, adults are most afraid of snakes."
Is it, Wu Zhong was stunned, then his eyes rolled wildly, and his expression seemed to be smiling: "He is actually afraid of this thing, seriously?" ”
Chen Wangting nodded: "It's true, he was in the wilderness before, and suddenly saw a snake rushing out of the grass, so frightened that he ran away with his pants ......"
Hahahaha, Wu Zhongxiao's tears are about to come out, what a little eunuch, when you are not afraid of heaven and earth, turn back...... With a bang, a cloud of sludge hit Wu Zhong's face, and Chang Yu by the river scolded angrily: "If you dare to play tricks like this next time, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around."
Hey, Wu Zhong sighed: "Kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs" He wiped a handful of mud on his face and whispered to Chen Wangting: "That is, him, I will abolish him in exchange for others."
"It's okay, be brave, he can't beat you anyway" Chen Wangting smiled, Wu Zhong was stunned: "Old Chen, I recently found out that you are also very bad!" ”
Qiao Sanxiu laughed when he heard the words next to him, adding fuel and vinegar: "Wu Daxia is afraid that he will do something, if you fight, Lao Chen and I will help you ......"
"Hey, if you believe in your ghost, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I'll help him hold me down......"
The sky was gray, Chang Yu was woken up by a mosquito bite, reached out and touched a few big bags, scolded a few words, turned over and sat up, leaned against the trunk and rubbed his eyes, but saw that Chen Wangting next to him was also awake, looking at the riverside and whispering something, Chang Yu looked along and saw a figure waving a knife by the river, just a few simple actions over and over again, no need to ask the natural Wuzhong.
"Commander Wu's sword technique can be called the top of the rivers and lakes, and he still practices so hard every day, and he works too hard" A personal guard muttered, Chen Wangting said: "The reason why kung fu is called kung fu is to spend kung fu to hone, and it is better not to use it for a thousand days than not to practice for a day."
"What Master Chen said is that he has been taught" The guard arched his hand.
Chang Yu also nodded secretly, but it was so early...... It is estimated that this product was also bitten by mosquitoes and couldn't sleep, or it was stimulated by the competition with Haihong.
Looking at Wu Zhong's boring and mechanical knife practice on the riverside, Chang Yu was confused and entered his dream again.
Early in the morning, Lianxin woke up, stretched out in bed, and had been away from home for a few days, although she had seen a lot of scenery along the way, she had also suffered a lot of sins, such as not sleeping in bed for several days.
What's more, she began to miss home, her parents, and lotus seeds.
So, tears rained down.
Can't cry, if the master sees it, it is indispensable to scold, Lianxin wiped away her tears, got up from the bed to tidy up the bedding, opened the door and walked out.
"Miss, you're up" The aunt of the owner came over warmly to say hello, and hurriedly went to fetch water for Lianxin while speaking, in her opinion, this fairy must be the eldest lady of the official's family, otherwise how could there be officers and soldiers to protect it.
Lianxin didn't bother to explain, and there was nothing to explain, so she thanked her and began to wash, but the aunt asked curiously next to her: "The eldest lady asked you something, are you from Qufu?" “。
Well, Lianxin nodded: "Auntie, what do you want to inquire?" “
"I heard from the village early this morning that there was an accident in the Confucian Mansion in Qufu, and many people scolded them, saying that they didn't do anything and were shameless villains, and that the Confucian Mansion was a thief and now began to open a warehouse for disaster relief, I don't know if it's true."
Lianxin really didn't know about this, she just traveled all the way, and she really didn't know what Chang Yu and the others had done secretly, but after all, she was a smart person in ice and snow, and on the first day, Su Jing told her: "Go to the rivers and lakes, meet people and talk about three points, don't throw all your hearts!" “
To put it simply, it is false and real, and the bottom can't be handed over, so this girl hummed: "I heard about it, but I don't know if it's true or not, it's just that how can someone scold this Confucian saint after that."
"Hey, I don't know this night, anyway, I heard people say, that Confucius Mansion, whoever sits in the world will surrender, he is a soft bone, how can he still have the face to call Yan Shenggong, saying that they enjoy the emperor's grace, but they don't worry about the country in the face of national disaster...... Oh, anyway, the scolding is ugly, tsk, ah, since there is really grain over there, I have to let my family try their luck too......"
