Wang Fu took off a small leather bag from his waist, took a sip, handed it to Chu Huan, and continued: "Xicheng Twenty Bureau, speaking of which, except for our Ximen Department, which other department has oil and water to fish, the closer to the market, the more oil and water." In our Eryuan Bureau in Xicheng City, ordinary soldiers have a lot of income every month, and they have a fixed income every month, which is much more than ...... military salary! ”

"The Duetbox is in charge of Eryuan City, and there are several streets in Eryuan City, all of which are shops and inns, and it seems that they are all to be honored." Chu Huan gradually understood.

Wang Fu nodded and said: "Xicheng Twenty Administration, the two departments have the largest oil and water, and everyone wants to squeeze their heads and transfer there, but if there is no background background, they can't go there in a dream." There are hundreds of people in the binary signature, and there is no one who is not a ...... who is related behind it! took the leather bag handed back by Chu Huan, took a sip and said: "His grandmother's, Lao Tzu has been on a errand in the Ximen Department for three years, and he doesn't expect to be transferred to the Binary Department, even if he is transferred to other offices...... Staying in the West Gate Department, there is no way to get ahead, here only rely on a few taels of silver every month, there is no other income, no silver in hand, and there is no way to go out of the relationship, so you can only keep going like this. He looked at Chu Huan sympathetically and sighed: "Chu Huan, your kid's luck is extremely bad, you are only afraid that you will offend people and even know yourself." ”

Chu Huan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Perhaps, the water in the capital is too deep, there are too many immortals, and I don't know which god I have committed." ”

"If you have money and still want to work in Wujingwei, I advise you to spend some silver to open up the joints and transfer them elsewhere." Wang Fu said earnestly: "If you can really transfer to another place, sooner or later you will be able to earn back the money you spent." Staying in the Ximen Department, don't say that earning money, even if you want to make meritorious service and receive rewards, it is impossible, and you may have to worry about your life. ”

"Worried about your life?"

"That's nature." Wang Fu said with full experience: "Our Ximen Department is responsible for the three streets and Ximen Square, as long as there is a little mistake here, the responsibility lies with our Ximen Department." Pointing to the front and back, he said: "These two sides are official mansions, I took you for a long time today, and you yourself have seen it, just these three streets, there are more than 20 mansions, we have brothers to patrol here every day, responsible for the safety of these mansions, do a good job is our duty, no one will reward you with a copper coin, do a bad job, just like a certain mansion is stolen, or a stranger breaks into a certain mansion, this responsibility has to be borne by us." He smiled bitterly: "A few months ago, the plaque on the door of a mansion was taken off, and I don't know which good thing it did, do you know what the result was?" ”

Chu Huan shook his head.

"The four brothers who were in charge of patrolling the streets that day were all given forty rods, and only half of their lives were left, and all four of them were sent to the border by the whole family." Wang Fu leaned against the wall and said, "You said that this is still not a place for people?" ”

Chu Huan touched his chin and sighed, "It seems that you really have to be careful step by step." ”

Wang Fu was very sympathetic to Chu Huan, and said: "If you have silver, hurry up and get through the relationship, if you don't have silver, you can ask for more blessings, don't make a mistake when you patrol the street, if something really happens, no one can protect you." ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Wang for your advice." ”

On this day, Wang Fu took Chu Huan to familiarize himself with the streets in charge of the West Gate Office, and after the next morning, Zhao Yang, the head of the department, called Wang Fu and ordered him to lead the three of them to patrol the West Square, and even personally named Chu Huan to follow.

After the order, Zhao Yang called Wang Fu alone and explained a few words in a low voice, Chu Huan didn't know what to explain, and when Wang Fu came back, he felt that Wang Fu's expression was a little weird.

In addition to being responsible for the security of several streets, Wu Jingwei of the West Gate Department is responsible for patrolling in the West Square, fortunately, although the West Square is huge, there are no criss-crossing streets, except for looking at an open smooth stone field, it is the row of erected archways, in Chu Huan's eyes, this row of archways built with a huge amount of money is just a decoration, so that the square is not too monotonous, adding a little domineering.

Although it is patrolling in the West Square, in fact, you really don't have to walk around in the West Square, find a place to sit, look at it at a glance, it is clear at a glance, as long as there is a situation, it is too late to take action.

Moreover, up and down the west gate of the imperial city, there are royal guards guarding it, and Wu Jingwei's duty is only to monitor whether there are idle people in the square.

In addition to Chu Huan, Wang Fu and the other three were obviously familiar with the work here, and found a place to sit down, Wang Fu pointed to the west gate of the imperial city and asked with a smile: "Chu Huan, do you know who is coming in and out of this gate?" ”

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "When I first arrived, I asked Brother Wang for more advice." ”

"The east gate is out of the important ministers, and the west gate is out of the beauty." Wang Fu laughed softly: "Haven't you heard this before?" ”

Chu Huan read it and asked with a smile, "What is there to say here?" ”

Wang Fu said with a smile: "When hundreds of officials enter the court, they all enter from the east gate, and when they disperse the dynasty, they also come out from the east gate. ”

Chu Huan asked, "Ximen is a beauty, so what do you say?" ”

Wang Fu smiled, and then lowered his voice and said: "The nobles who came in and out of the West Gate are all concubines ......!" Speaking of this, he felt that he still had a lot to say, patted Chu Huan on the shoulder, and said: "The only good thing about the Ximen Department is that if you are lucky, you may see the figures of those concubines and concubines, this ...... Maybe it's the only benefit. ”

In order to distinguish the stars in the sky, the ancients divided the stars into three stars and 28 constellations, because the crape myrtle constellation is in the sky, so in ancient times, it was believed that the crape myrtle was the place where the Son of Heaven lived, so the imperial city was usually called crape myrtle city.

The construction of Luo'an City, since the era of the Great Wu Dynasty, has benefited the stars and the sky, with the concept of the unity of heaven and man, the construction is to lead the Qin water through the capital, like the Tianhan, the bridge to the south, the law of the cattle, the Qin water through the capital is actually the meaning of the Tianhan Milky Way, there is a heavenly palace in the sky, the heavenly palace has the Milky Way, and there is a palace in the world, Qin Shui is the Milky Way in the world, which means the unity of heaven and man, and it shows that the emperor is the son of heaven.

Although the capital is referred to as the four cities of the southeast and northwest, in fact, the four cities have a very particular name, the imperial city is Ziwei City, the name of the east city is Qiming City, the south Taiwei City, the north Quyi City, and the west city is the Taiyin City, in addition to the Qinshui Milky Way, there is also Gushui and Rao Water like two jade dragons twisted in the city, looking down on the sky, Qinshui is like a dragon, and the other two rivers are like two small dragons lingering dragons, the design of the entire capital is designed and built in accordance with the concept of the unity of heaven and man, Therefore, the meanings represented by the four gates of the imperial city are also different.

The ancients believed that the east is the main yang, the west is the main yin, so the west gate of the imperial city has always been the place where the relatives haunt the palace, if there is a status of the concubine passed away, the coffin is to come out of the west gate, from the archway that carved with auspicious beasts and birds, Fang Xian Zunhua, and the favored concubines in the palace if they get the emperor's favor, out of the palace to save relatives, must also go out from the west gate, after the west gate, in essence, is the west palace of the imperial city, is the place of the harem.

In addition to the nobles of the harem, the selection and release of the harem maids are also from the West Gate, so Wang Fu claims that "the West Gate is a beauty", which is not false.

When Wang Fu said this, Chu Huan seemed to understand something, but someone next to him already laughed in a low voice: "Lao Wang, Ximen is not only a beauty, but also a thing." ”

Chu Huan asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Wang Fu mocked: "There are also eunuchs!" ”

The two people next to him immediately laughed, and one of them whispered: "A eunuch is not a thing. ”

Wang Fu waved his hand and said: "It's better to say less, if you really want to be heard, you will always get into trouble." It's not that you don't know that there are two kinds of people that the Holy God trusts the most now, and if we offend these two kinds of people, maybe they will be beheaded all over the house. ”

"Two kinds of people?" Chu Huan was a little puzzled.

Someone next to him lowered his voice and said, "Taoist priests and eunuchs!" ”

"Oh!" Chu Huan suddenly realized and understood.

Wang Fu leaned against the root of the wall and said, "That's it, don't talk about it, it's still early at noon, and it's not time to eat, let's keep an eye on it first, Chu Huan came out on an errand for the first time today, and after the shift, a few brothers will get together to catch the wind for Chu Huan." ”

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Several big brothers take care of it, Chu Huan is grateful." In this way, there is no need to make up the parts, the younger brother also has a few taels of silver, if a few can afford it, after the shift, the younger brother will be the east, invite a few brothers to drink a few cups, I don't know what to do? ”

Wu Jingwei of the Ximen Department is different from other places, his income is small, he has to provide for the family's expenses, and he can't be as free and easy as other departments, and he has to think about it for a while if he wants to open a small stove in the tavern, at this time, when he heard Chu Huan say that he wanted to have a treat, his heart was full of joy, Wang Fu had already patted Chu Huan's arm and said, "Chu Huan, it's interesting enough." ”

It was still early, Wang Fu was holding a knife, the west gate was deserted, and there were few people in the west square, so he yawned and said, "I slept late yesterday, I will rest for a while, you guys are staring, and you have something to call me." ”

He closed his eyes, after a short pause, as if he had thought of something, opened his eyes, looked at Chu Huan, and said in a low voice: "Chu Huan, if someone comes out of the West Gate, you must not ......!" Speaking of this, his voice paused, his expression was a little strange, he groaned for a while, shook his head and said, "That's it, it's okay, just keep an eye on it." ”

He closed his eyes and fell asleep against the wall, Chu Huan saw that Wang Fu wanted to speak and stopped, a little strange, this Wang Fu obviously had something to say, but he seemed to have some scruples, he was silent after only half of the words, and he didn't know what the next half of his words were.

Wang Fu soon snored, but it didn't make a sound, and the other two also leaned against the wall, sleepy, and when they saw Wang Fu sleeping, one of them whispered to Chu Huan: "Chu Huan, you just came, you are full of energy, unlike us who are too tired for a while, let's take a break first, you keep your eyes sharp, staring at the square, if there is something to call us." ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "I'm staring." "But I also know the rules in my heart, no matter where the newcomer is new to the city, there are always more things to do.
