After solving the case of Phoenix Collection, they hurried to Jinling.

Jinling has been prosperous since ancient times, and it is even more prosperous in the period of Song Renzong, especially on the banks of the Qinhuai River, singing every night, like a city that never sleeps.

When Hualang and his party arrived in Jinling, it was noon, the sun was so hot that even if they rode a horse and walked around, they were sweating, so after the group entered Jinling City, they did not rush to see Zheng Wang Chai Rongshan, but first found an inn to fill their stomachs and quench their thirst.

The name of the inn is Dujia, of course, Jinling is not the only inn, but there is only this unique inn like the Duyi Inn.

The single inn is very large, it can be said that it is the largest inn on the street where it is located, the decoration in the inn is very luxurious, giving people a feeling that they dare not enter casually, but even so, the business of the single inn is the best, because the service here is considerate, the meals are delicious, the wine is the most expensive, and the tea is the best.

After Hua Lang and his party entered the only inn, they immediately came to greet the shopkeeper, who kept smiling, making people feel at home, but Bao Zheng and the others suddenly saw such an enthusiastic shopkeeper, and they were really a little uncomfortable for a while.

found a place to sit down, the shopkeeper immediately brought the menu, and each of them ordered some of their favorite dishes, and then asked the shopkeeper to do it.

After the shopkeeper went down, he brought the food in a short time, and the speed was as if it had already been prepared.

Everyone was very surprised by the speed of serving food in this inn, but although they were surprised, they couldn't say anything, so they had to eat obediently.

And just when everyone was eating, a person suddenly came on the second floor of the only inn, the person was slightly fat, but he had a big belly, giving people an indescribable funny, but after Hua Lang saw that person, he didn't laugh because of the funny, because he found that the person's face was very bad, and his expression was slightly angry and worried, and when he walked downstairs, he almost bumped into the person who was ushered in on the opposite side.

After the man walked down, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "Second Master Guan, is the food good?" ”

The man seemed to be in a very irritable mood, and after throwing a silver ingot in his hand, he left a single inn, leaving the shopkeeper with the silver in his hand confused.

Hua Lang thought that person was very interesting, so he beckoned the shopkeeper to come to him and asked, "You just called that person Guan Erye?" ”

Seeing that Hua Lang was Xuanang, the shopkeeper didn't dare to offend, and nodded again and again: "That's right, he is our second master Guan here, what's wrong?" ”

Hua Lang smiled lightly and said: "I have only heard of Liu Guan and Zhang's three brothers, Taoyuan Sanjieyi, Guan Yu is called Guan Erye, and suddenly I heard someone called Guan Erye in Jinling, a prosperous place, and I was very curious." ”

The shopkeeper saw that Hua Lang was just curious, so he put his mind at ease and said, "So that's the case, but if the guest officer has seen Guan Erye's eldest brother and third brother, I'm afraid he will be even more curious." ”

Hanarang shrugged and smiled, "Oh, why? ”

The shopkeeper saw that he aroused the interest of Hualang and others, and the conversation box suddenly opened, and said: "The second master Guan who just left is surnamed Guan Reputation, and his family has a good field and a thousand tilts, and there are a number of shops, but in our Jinling is a big family, he married two brothers with different surnames, namely the eldest brother Liu Bei, the third brother Zhang Fei, and the names of the three people are the same as the three brothers with different surnames Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in the Three Kingdoms period, so they also follow the example of the three people in the Three Kingdoms period, the peach blossom three righteousness, and do righteous deeds in Jinling. ”

After listening to the words of the shopkeeper, Hua Lang, Bao Zheng and the others felt that the three brothers of Jinling were really strange people, and even the names were so strange.

And at this time, the shopkeeper continued: "Uncle Liu is known as the timely rain in Jinling, as long as anyone has difficulties, he can do his best, and never say not to help, so the people here respect Uncle Liu very much, but Zhang Sanye's temper is a little irritable, and sometimes people feel that they can't get close to him, and they are very afraid!" ”

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he looked quite proud, and after Hua Lang bowed slightly, he hurriedly asked: "Then what about this second master, looking at the way he looked just now, he seems to be very angry!" ”

The shopkeeper scratched his head and said, "Second Master Guan usually likes to eat the most, and he has a good temper, but today he is really strange, it's really hard to figure out." When the shopkeeper said this, he hurriedly apologized and said, "I just talked to a few people, there are still things waiting for me in the kitchen, and a few of them are slow to use." ”

After the shopkeeper left, Bao Zheng laughed twice and said, "I really didn't expect that Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in the Three Kingdoms period actually came to Jinling in the Great Song Dynasty, it's really strange." ”

Everyone agreed with Bao Zheng's words, so they laughed along, so that after everyone had enough trouble, they checked out and left.

After leaving the only inn, they went directly to the Jinling Post House, they believed that King Zheng must be there, after all, in this Jinling land, there are two places in Jinling Mansion and Jinling Jiedu Envoy, King Zheng in order to avoid suspicion, I am afraid that that place is not suitable to go, only stay in the post house.

And things are indeed as Hua Lang and they think, Zheng Wang Chai Rongshan did stay in the post house, but in this post house, in addition to Zheng Wang Chai Rongshan, there is also Wei Huai, the prefect of Jinling Mansion, and Cheng Li, the envoy of the festival.

After Hua Lang and the others entered the post house, King Zheng didn't seem to be very happy, looked at Bao Zheng coldly, and asked coldly: "Have you solved the murder case of Phoenix Collection?" ”

Although Bao Zheng didn't like this King Zheng very much, after all, he was the prince, so Bao Zheng still replied very politely, and after he finished speaking, King Zheng immediately said coldly: "Since the Phoenix Collection murder case has been solved, then hurry up and do what the Eight Sages King explained." After Zheng Wang Chai Rongshan finished speaking, he got up and left the living room of the post house.

At this time, Wei Huai and Cheng Li did not leave or not, and after the two of them glanced at each other, they both showed disgust, although the expressions of the two of them were subtle, they were still seen by Hua Lang, and after seeing the expressions of the two of them, Hua Lang suddenly understood the matter between the two of them.

Jiedu envoys are generally military attachés, and the official rank is larger than that of the prefect, but in one place, but there is not much real power, and the prefect is often a civil official, and the Great Song Dynasty is Chongwen and suppresses the military, so the prefect is not afraid of the Jiedu envoy, so back and forth, in a place, the relationship between the Jiedu envoy and the prefect is often not very good.

The imperial court seems to have taken this into account, so the appointment of a local prefect and the envoy of the festival is often the case, because the two officials contain each other, and they can avoid the dominance of one party, which is very important for the stability of the place.
