Chapter 211: Ran away
Yang Ze felt that Caicai might have an accident, he had always been cautious in doing things, so he naturally had to send someone to watch over the little girl, he not only sent soldiers to stand guard in front of the palace, but also tied the horse to the backyard, he didn't know that Caicai wanted to run out of the city in this winter, but the precautions must be done well, and it is better to prevent trouble before it happens!
As a result, his precaution really worked, Caicai couldn't find a chance to run away from home, she didn't have a chance to rebel, she wanted to go out, she had to have a horse, but the horse was tied in the backyard of the county government, without Yang Ze's order, she couldn't take it away at all.
After waiting for several days, Caicai did not succeed in rebellion, she had to wait patiently for the opportunity, Yang Ze could watch her for a few days, she didn't believe it, Yang Ze still had to watch her for a few months, wait, anyway, people are still young!
On this day, Yan Chenghou finally returned from Qiuzhou, just in time for the Chinese New Year's Eve, and hurried back in time to come back for the New Year.
The New Year in Zhenxi County is naturally not as lively as the capital, but under Yang Ze's planning, it also has a unique flavor, in order to have a good New Year after he took office, but also to show that he cares about the people very much in this county order, Yang Ze took the soldiers to sweep the main streets of the city, piled up the snow together, piled up a few snowmen, the snowmen have different shapes, although not delicate enough, but fortunately, the size is big enough, the largest snowman, is as high as two floors, in fact, this snowman is also a big snowdrift, Then press a big round snowball as a head, and then cover it with a broken bathtub, use it as a hat for the snowman, make eyes out of the snowman's face with rags, insert a small broom as a nose, and insert a big broom as an arm, this is a snowman!
Although these snowmen are rough and rudimentary, they still open the eyes of the people in Zhenxi, especially the children, who usually build snowmen. But they have never built such a big one, and after coaxing around the big snowman, they began to build their own snowman, and under all kinds of whimsy, the snowman was piled up in a thousand strange ways, but it doesn't matter, if someone's snowman is not like a person, the child will say that this is not a snowman, but a snow monster, anyway, everyone has never seen a monster. It doesn't matter how weird it is!
After Yan Chenghou entered the city, he saw this scene, the streets were full of snowmen, and when he took the convoy to the gate of the county government, he saw that there were two snowmen on the left and right, strictly speaking, they were snow beasts, and they looked like two big dogs guarding the door.
Yang Ze personally greeted him, and Yan Chenghou pointed to the two snow dogs. praised: "My lord, with these two watchdogs, then the safety of our yamen will be guaranteed, whether it is a year beast or a beast." You'll be scared away by these two big dogs! ”
Yang Ze was stunned for a moment, looked left and right, and said, "These are not two big dogs, these are two mighty lions." One male and one female, used to guard the gate, not to scare the beasts! ”
Yan Cheng grinned. Well, these two lions look so much like dogs! He hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, it's not two lions, it's much more majestic than a dog." ”
Yang Ze pointed to the door of the palace and said: "Look at the small one, that's the dog, it's the vegetable pile, she is small and has little strength, she can't pile up a lion, she can only pile a dog!" ”
The convoy came outside, Caicai stood at the door to watch the excitement, wondering in her heart, if she could get some good things from Yang Ze, she suddenly heard Yang Ze laughing at the things she piled up, the little girl was holding her breath these days, and immediately had an outlet to be angry, she said angrily: "How is this a dog, this is an elephant, it is the biggest giant beast in the world, do you understand, this is called an elephant, much more powerful than your lion, but it is just a little smaller, but you can't say that it is a dog!" ”
Yang Ze saw that she was small, and even lost his temper, and said with a smile: "You haven't seen an elephant, just pile it up, I've seen an elephant, that elephant has a long trunk, big ears, what are you, it's just a long ear, if you insert a stick, it's a long nose, it's too ugly!" ”
After that, he asked people to drive the cart into the county office, went to order the goods in person, and no longer paid attention to the little girl.
Of course, Caicai has never seen an elephant, she just heard Li Yan say, there were elephants from foreign countries in the capital before, Li Yan told her that the elephant was very big, and she said that the appearance was like this, so she relied on her own imagination to pile this, but what it was, she didn't know, naturally she couldn't pile it up, of course, even if she had seen elephants, with her ability, she couldn't pile it up, not so high technology.
Nana thought to herself: "Otherwise, I will change the elephant to a unicorn?" I haven't seen this thing like a unicorn, but no one else has seen it either, so don't you pile it up with me? Well, this is not in a hurry, seeing that Yang Ze is in a mess, they are all busy unloading, I just have the opportunity, go to the backyard to see if I can lead the horse out! ”
The little girl has a good idea, the more adults don't let her do anything, she wants to do it, her parents oppose her to find the prince, Yang Ze doesn't let her, but she has to find it, originally when the weather is warm, she can go again, but now she has to go in a hurry, she has the rebellious spirit of an adolescent beautiful girl, if it is placed in modern times, it is definitely a problem girl, early love is certain, I didn't recruit a group of girls, and I praised her as the female boss, which is already a stop!
Yang Ze was so busy, the servants and soldiers were also busy unloading, so there was time to take care of a little girl's thoughts, no one paid attention to the vegetables, the yard was busy, and they were all busy unloading and counting the goods!
Yang Ze checked the goods and said, "Can you go to Qiuzhou this time?" It's a lot of money to buy things out of gold, isn't it? ”
Yan Cheng said: "It's okay, it's not as troublesome as imagined, Qiuzhou must be a big place after all, there are still a lot of rich people, many rich people like to collect gold, and cast gold into big ingots, but also because of the low price of gold here, some big businessmen also like to transport gold to the Central Plains, one out and one in, and it is also very profitable, so it is not effortless to redeem huàn, but it takes a little trouble to buy things, we buy a lot of things, and merchants always have to prepare, which delays the effort." ”
Yang Ze nodded, he held the list of goods in his hand, checked them one by one, and said, "My letter to the assassin?" What did he say? ”
Yan Chenghou said what happened when he saw the ram, which was similar to Yang Ze's prediction, Yang Ze smiled: "I really expected it right, he didn't take this matter to heart, but it's okay." When he realizes it, he can't get out, and then we will pull him into the water and make a fortune together. By the way, what do you think of him, does he have any special hobbies? ”
I'm not afraid that the leader has a hobby, I'm afraid that the leader doesn't have a hobby, as long as you know the leader's hobby, then you can prescribe the right medicine, and many things will be easy to do.
Yan Cheng was honest and kept the ram only to receive gifts. It's not good to collect money, and he also said that the ram has a good reputation among the people, although he loves money, he is not a master of scraping the ground.
Yang Ze listened to it and said with a smile: "Never accept money? That's an interesting nickname! Well, there are a lot of people like this, and the current officials are all thinking about benefits and wanting to set up a chaste archway. Isn't it the same as that Dali Temple Qinghou Zizhen, who lives in a broken courtyard, and he doesn't want me to give him gifts, but asks me to fold them into gold for him. Have you forgotten it, or the gold you exchanged! ”
Yan Cheng smiled and said: "That Hou Zizhen is shameless enough, he is the kind of person who doesn't do anything after receiving money, and he is by no means a good thing." ”
Yang Ze said: "The bigger the official does. The thicker the skin, the thicker the skin, and when the prime minister's official position is achieved, it is estimated that the thicker the skin will be. It's called being shameless! ”
After saying that, he thought about it, this is not quite right, if he wants to be the prime minister in the future, it will become shameless, he is actually quite embarrassed!
He said again: "The ram only collects gifts and does not collect money, this is easy to do, and then do more business with Balluhun over there, there is more gold, let's beat the gold into the shape of a golden sheep and give it to him, isn't this a gift, it's gold again, he left the golden sheep, and even the process of selling gifts is saved, and we can be regarded as solving problems for Shangguan!" ”
Fu Bingrong and Tan Zhengwen, who were following the order, listened to it, and they all laughed, Tan Zhengwen said: "No wonder this thorn history is called a ram to stay, and the love is to collect a ram made of gold, and then he stayed, when his father named him, he was so far-sighted!" ”
Everyone laughed together, and they were busy for a long time, until it was completely dark, and then the goods were finished and put into the backyard of the county government.
Only one servant was wondering, how could the door of the backyard open, but tonight was Chinese New Year's Eve, the most lively time, this servant was in a hurry to eat Chinese New Year's Eve, closed the door and gave up, neither tracking down this matter, nor reporting to Yang Ze.
After handling the goods, Yang Ze personally went to the royal mansion to see Li Yan, and ordered people to move the sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to Li Yan, and there were people with heads and faces in the county to go to Li Yan to pay New Year's greetings together, say auspicious words, and please Li Yan, the down-and-out prince.
Li Yan has been in Zhenxi for so long, and for the first time to have such a comfortable New Year, not only is he happy, but the princess is also happy, and he is very happy to eat this Chinese New Year's Eve meal!
In the middle of the night, Yan Cheng ordered someone to take out the firecrackers he brought back, and set them off in the open space of the street.
Yang Ze accompanied Li Yan to stand at the door, watching the firecrackers, he looked back, but found that Caicai did not come out, and thought: "Why does this little girl seem to have something on her mind, she has very little to say tonight, I really don't know what she is thinking, is it possible that she is still thinking about the elephant?" Why don't I draw an elephant tomorrow and show her! Alas, this little girl is not a big person, but she has a lot of things on her mind! ”
After midnight, everyone dispersed, late at night, everyone was tired for a day, they all went back to their respective homes, wives and children hot kang heads, all went to sleep, and the whole Zhenxi County was in a quiet place.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to the rules of this era, he should go to the elders to pay New Year's greetings, and the city can be called his elders, and it is Li Yan's family, although last night was a night of vigil together, but the rules cannot be broken, and he still has to go to pay New Year's greetings.
After washing, he was about to go out, but a servant came to report, saying that when the groom was feeding the horses today, he found that there was a horse missing in the backyard, and the horse missing was Yang Ze's mount, that is, the one given to Caicai! (To be continued......)
