early morning

The lights are on, birds are chirping on the branches, several wonton soup and cake stalls have been set up, and there are farmer pawns selling along the streets: "Sell melons, fruits and vegetables." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Wontons - hot, a bowl of Wuwen!"

"Baked cakes, one penny!"

A lot of meat was hung on a shelf at the meat stall, and a housekeeper stepped forward and asked, "How is this meat sold today?"

The butcher hurriedly smiled: "You are my big customer who sells meat, how dare you ask for more?"

As he spoke, he saw that no one was around, and whispered: "Eighty percent, you take it." ”

This is the meaning of giving a rebate to Ercheng, the housekeeper nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, some meat buns were hot, boiling on the steamer: "Sell buns, Erwen one!"

The inn is in the street, full of noisy sounds.

room

This is the upper room of the inn, not to mention the elegant layout, a wooden couch occupies half of the room, but at least it is clean, Pei Ziyun slowly withdrew in silence, only feeling refreshed, and the whole body is psychic, but there is no joy.

After a long time, Pei Ziyun let out a long breath: "Although this cultivation has increased the slightest Dao practice, the essence of the human body's transformation is ultimately limited, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to advance to the next level even if I cultivate until I die of old age." ”

"There is no blessed land and prestige, and there is very little gain, no wonder this world is cultivated, Xie Chengdong became the first person in the Immortal Dao, it seems that the Immortal Dao dragon vein must be obtained. ”

Pei Ziyun got up to wash up and went out, and said to the guy: "You go buy some breakfast, I heard that there are buns, just buy a basket of buns." ”

After Pei Ziyun finished speaking, he sat down, and the guy had already brought the tea up, took a sip, and thought thoughtfully.

Although the Thunder Tribulation not only wiped out the Daoist, but also wiped out all the memories of the dragon vein, Linshan County still remembered that this was a reserved way back.

"Linshan County is not big, it is not small, with my current feng shui can be seen, I can also find this way back when I walk all over the county. ”

"But it took a long time. ”

"In the past, it took this person eleven years to find the hidden dragon, I am not looking for the hidden dragon, but just to find the back road in Linshan County, I am afraid it will take a month or two?"

Thinking like this, Pei Ziyun rubbed his temples, with some troubles, in order to find a trace, he traveled thousands of miles, hoping to have a harvest.

The guy smiled, wore a small hat, and held a dark steamer: "Xianggong, the buns are here!"

There is also a plate of vinegar and hot sauce on one side, and when the lid of the steamer is lifted, I see ten steamed buns with thin skin and thin filling, which seem to be able to pinch out the oil, white and tender and steaming, which makes people appetite suddenly.

Pei Ziyun took chopsticks and sandwiched a bun, and when he ate it, the soup flowed out, and the meat tendons were bounced, which tasted good.

Putting down the chopsticks, Pei Ziyun looked at the guy and asked, "Do you know that in the past 20 years, how many people have moved here?"

The guy was embarrassed: "Childe, I'm only twenty years old, how do I know who has moved around in the past twenty years, but Granny Li knows that she is sixty years old this year, so I asked." ”

"That's right, it's rewarding. Pei Ziyun threw a string of money: "Invite her, and the money will be rewarded to you." ”

"Xie Gongzi rewards. The man responded: "She's not far from the next door, I'll call her over." ”

It was very close, and the buns used seven or eight, and an old woman came in and saw Pei Ziyun is blessing: "Son, but do you want to inquire about the news?" ”

"Oh, do you know if there is a Du family in the homes of the people who have moved in the past 20 years?

Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, Granny Li thought for a while: "Son, there were countless relocations in the war back then, and the dozen or so families I know in my memory have migrated from other places, but there is no Du family." ”

"Oh, could it be that the Du family didn't relocate?"

"Impossible, Du Zinong acted against the sky and killed the hidden dragon, which led to the dispersion of the dragon qi and the war disaster for several years, so even the Taishi couldn't withstand it, and the five horses died in parts. ”

"And bring trouble to the family. ”

"If the descendants of the Du family do not retreat to this safe haven, they will have no physiology. ”

"If it's broken, it's broken, I'm embarrassed, I can't find this Taishi dragon vein diagram, is it difficult to learn that Taoist to spend a few years traveling all over the country to find this immortal dragon vein?"

"That's right, if it's so easy to find, it won't be my turn. Pei Ziyun found nothing, comforted himself and thought, and casually dropped a string of money: "Then trouble you." ”

"Xie Gongzi rewards. Granny Li smiled and hurriedly accepted it.

No appetite for the last two buns, Pei Ziyun pushed it, and he was about to get up, and suddenly realized, this private inquiry, how can there be official records in detail, as long as you go to the county office, you can get it.

Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun turned around and called an ox cart: "Go to the county office!"

The coachman looked at him in astonishment, and with a word of agreement, the cart went down the street.

Linshan County Ya is located in the west of the city, this is a large courtyard, according to the wall, the gate, the lobby, the central axis of the second hall, as well as the study and garden.

Arrived at the gate of the county ya, climbed the stairs, and a servant looked Pei Ziyun up and down, Pei Ziyun was very young, and his clothes were not expensive or cheap, he couldn't tell the reason, but he could see it with a reading spirit, and the corners of his eyebrows were even more majestic, and he unconsciously asked: "Son, are you here to sue?"

Pei Ziyun was not embarrassed, and handed the post directly: "I am Pei Ziyun, who is a lifter, and I am asking to see the county master." ”

Pei Ziyun's introduction, the official suddenly did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the post in, a little later, a forty-year-old official wearing cloud boots and a seven-grade official uniform greeted him: "But Pei Jieyuan, coming to this county, is really full of brilliance, please, please." ”

The magistrate greeted him and sat down as the guest of honor.

The magistrate said: "I have admired Xie Yuan for a long time, the poetry and literature are famous all over the world, and the people who read the world don't know the name, but they have no chance, they have never visited the meeting, and they have lost their intimacy." ”

Pei Ziyun said: "The student was lucky enough to get a little name, which is really ashamed. ”

After a few words of conversation, the magistrate asked what he meant.

Pei Ziyun glanced at it: "My Pei family avoided disaster back then, and once separated and fled, and now it is peaceful and prosperous, and the clan wants to recontact the old branch and continue to write a family tree, I heard that one of them fled to Linshan County, and I don't know if it changed its surname, but also look at the household registration of immigrants in the county within 20 years." ”

"It's a small thing, a matter of words. When the magistrate heard this, he didn't hesitate, so he happily agreed: "Come here, call Hu Cao!"

A little later, a household Cao came with the call, and the magistrate of the county said: "This is Pei Jieyuan, if you want to check the household registration of immigrants in this county within 20 years, you must not be lazy, and obey orders quickly." ”

"Yes!" Tocao, a warden who did not enter the stream, immediately saluted and bowed again to obey orders.

"Then thank you to the county. Pei Ziyun got up and saluted, and followed Hu Cao, and when he got to a place, he saw that there were three rooms here, densely packed with cabinets inlaid with copper leaves, all marked with red sticks, and the door was full of ink fragrance, and several people worked on the table.

Hu Cao did not enter the stream in front of the prefectural order, and here he was the chief official, and ordered: "Quickly, take out all the household registrations that have been moved over in the past 20 years." ”

He said and pointed to the cabinet: "It's here, here, after finding it, quickly copy a copy." ”

invited Pei Ziyun to sit down and smile: "Master, wait a minute, serve tea!"

With an order, several small officials opened the cabinet to pick up the documents, they seemed to be very familiar with them, and they didn't have much time to take out hundreds of documents and copy them carefully.

"You are very capable!" Pei Ziyun invited Hu Cao to sit down as well, but sighed secretly in his heart.

The emperor called the king, in the siege of the city at the same time, will build roads and rescue household registration documents to do two important work, the establishment of the dynasty in July of the third year, issued a decree to order the people of the world to surrender within a time limit, and the national population survey, the road introduction, household post, yellow book.

The household registration kept by the government has the name, place of origin, and family property status written on it, and one copy of the party, one copy of the county, one copy of the government, one copy of the province, and one copy of the household department.

Five files make it very difficult to forge, which shows the strict control of the population, but in the previous dynasty, there were four registers of military, civilian, craftsman, and stove, and there were more subdivisions, and now there are only two official and civilian registers.

This is a secret of the government, and it is expressly forbidden to be transferred at will, but for himself who has a meritorious reputation, he can see it casually, so he hurried and heard the words.

"My family has been a servant for generations. Hu Cao leaned on the chair and said, "This dynasty is fixed, and with the grace of the emperor, we officials also have a chance to be promoted." ”

"How can I not fight for a path to the top?"

"Not necessarily in the future. ”

Pei Ziyun suddenly remembered Liao Ge, who had also worked hard all his life and got a Jiupin, but he died halfway through, his heart ached slightly, but he smiled: "You're right, I have a friend Liao Ge, who was also born as a small official, and later got the Jiupin." ”

Hu Cao looked at Pei Ziyun with blazing eyes: "I've heard of the humble position, he was originally from the ninth grade, but he died on official business, and the government posthumously gave him the ninth grade." ”

Seeing Pei Ziyun's expression change slightly, he smiled and sighed: "Despicability is not hypocrisy, it is true envy, what our public is asking for is a positive result." ”

"My father has been working for thirty years without success, and he took my hand - my son, you fight for dignity for my family, and that humble look hurts in my heart when I think of it, I can really get a positive nine grades, and I am willing to die in office. ”

Pei Ziyun looked at Hu Cao and said: "There is not much time for the imperial court to open the imperial examination, and there are still many officials lacking. ”

"Then thank you Xie Yuan Gong Jiyan. Tocao stood up and bowed.

In less than half an hour, with the efforts of a few scribes, the twenty-year new immigrant brochure was copied, which was also due to the fact that there were few relocations in ancient times, Pei Ziyun accepted it, got up and handed over a silver ticket, not much, ten taels: "You have worked hard, this is tea money, you divide it." ”

Hu Cao also got up busily: "Xie Xie Yuan's reward!"

Several scribes were also full of joy when they saw it, eating meat at the head and drinking soup below, and several of them would have a share of profits, but one of them, who was about twenty years old, had worries in his eyes.

sent Pei Ziyun out, it was almost noon, the scribe looked for a time, found an excuse to go out, and when he got to the street, he saw that there was no one around, and said a few words to a vendor, the vendor listened, frowned, and left in a hurry.
