Nanli

Pei Ziyun walks in the streets, the history of the ancient city of Nanli can be traced back to a thousand years ago, the past dynasties or the land of the state city, or the capital of the kingdom, chessboard structure, deep streets and alleys, criss-crossed, all the same color green tile roof, cobblestone walls, showing the simplicity and chic of Nanli. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

There are many people in fancy clothes on the streets, carrying baskets and frames, and some sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys wearing hats and carrying children, and wearing woven hats or turbans.

"Eggs, sell eggs. "On the street, an old woman was selling seven or eight strings of eggs in the street.

"Grasshoppers, fresh grasshoppers, a string of three pennies, a string of three pennies. "A boy of eight or nine years old, barefoot, dressed the grasshopper on thatch and sold it.

On the road, the young people and Han people interspersed the walk, and the women and children who came out to buy vegetables hung baskets, watched the selected vegetables to buy, and put them in the baskets.

Pei Ziyun was gorgeously dressed and handsome, and some girls looked at it and seemed to like it.

At this time, Pei Ziyunhuan looked around, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning, most of the words around him were folk dialects, and Chinese was not the mainstream, and he secretly thought: "The previous dynasty lost Nanli for a hundred years, and the original sinicization suddenly decreased by half. ”

"Although Daxu has been swept away and reincorporated into the county, it is still difficult for the culture and language to improve quickly. ”

A man's eyes lit up when he saw Pei Ziyun, and he stepped forward to salute and call: "Childe, son, are you from the mainland?"

This person is dressed in Han clothes, and he speaks Chinese, but he looks a little ruffian, seeing this person step forward to speak, Pei Ziyun hesitated a little, and then laughed: "What's the matter with you?"

The man stepped forward with a smile: "Childe must be the first time to come to Nanli, unfamiliar with the road, villain Hong Lin, you can lead Childe around to see, but you need some money." ”

"Oh, what a fee. Pei Ziyun asked with interest.

"Childe, it's not much, that is, ten taels of silver, I can be on call, I'm all messing around in this realm, I can get rid of any little troubles, it's no better." "This man is a mocker.

"Ten taels, really my fat sheep? Pei Ziyun snorted and passed by, did he want to deceive himself because he was unfamiliar with his life to knock on the silver tael?

This person watched Pei Ziyun leave, and hurriedly said: "Childe, childe, five taels, three taels, no less, I will earn a hard fee." ”

"Give you one or two, love to do it or not. Pei Ziyun waved his hand: "Serious tour guide, you can't use 300 wen a day, your mouth is too open." ”

"One or two will do. Hong Lin sneered, Pei Ziyun threw a piece of broken silver, this person touched it, bit it, and pointed out very enthusiastically: "The climate in Nanli is changeable, the rain here is dry, and the clothes of the four seasons are worn together, and you have to prepare for your play." ”

Nanli's climate is changeable, the temperature difference is very large, and the clothes of the four seasons can be seen everywhere, with different lengths and thicknesses, Pei Ziyun has already realized this, and waved his hand: "Don't talk nonsense, lead the way, take me to Guanya, I have something to do." ”

Hong Lin led Pei Ziyun away, as if he was familiar with the people who were following the official teeth, and shouted: "Uncle Hong, I will introduce you to the business." ”

A middle-aged man came out, frowned when he saw that it was Hong Lin, and then saw Pei Ziyun, and a smile appeared on his face: "What's the matter with this son?"

"Tell me about Nanli. Pei Ziyun looked around and said, "It's not convenient to talk here, the three of us went to find a restaurant to talk." ”

Uncle Hong of Yaxing was still a little hesitant, but now he listened: "Childe, it's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

"Childe, I know that Nanli Sifang Hotel is good. Hong Lin smiled flatteringly and led the way.

Sifang Hotel

Although Nanli is very different from the mainland, this building is obviously a Han hotel, with carved windows on the eaves, Pei Ziyun looked at it and said with a smile: "The style is okay, but the charm of the words is insufficient." ”

Saying that, when he came in, he found that there was also a private room, so he went up, Pei Ziyun casually threw a piece of silver and a tael of silver, and ordered: "Serve according to this." ”

The guy took it, immediately smiled and bowed: "Yes, yes!"

Uncle Hong's face also changed, this shot was generous, one or two silver and a table, and he was still calm at the moment, pointing to the opposite side and saying: "The son wants to play, you see, the opposite side is the Chongsheng Temple, the four-sided dense eaves thirteen-story tower, the four corners of the tower have a copper golden-winged bird, each two meters, also known as the Golden Rooster Tower." ”

Pei Ziyun raised his eyes and looked into the distance, saw that the gold plating on the surface had fallen off, and restored the true color of the bronze bird, and asked: "Why do you want to put a golden rooster on the top of the tower?"

"The Buddha said that the golden-winged bird can descend the dragon, the south is mountainous, the mountain torrent is more flooded, so the golden-winged bird is placed on the top of the tower, in order to town the flood, there is a copper whistle at the corner of the golden rooster before, the inner is empty, the wind blows, it will make a cry, and then the days are long, the copper whistle is filled with gray sand, gradually rusted, and the golden rooster will never call again. ”

At this moment, it is noon, the sun is shining, the three of them are sitting and talking, a sumptuous dish is served, a few glasses of wine are in the stomach, and after a while, the wine is hot, Pei Ziyun said: "I want to understand Nanli, and please tell me." ”

This middle-aged man's name is Hong Yu, and he is the most well-informed in Yaxing on weekdays, otherwise how to make a deal, Pei Ziyun asked, Hong Yu thought about it and said: "In the land of Nanli, there are not many Han people, and it has not been very prosperous, but it is the joint management of various Tusi and Yamen." ”

"Now in Nanli, the imperial court is becoming prosperous, and the Han people are all migrating, so our business is gradually getting better. Hong Yu stretched out his chopsticks, grabbed a large piece of meat, took a sip of wine, and said with a red face.

"I look at the imperial court, while migrating the Han people, and raising the Tusi, I think it's ......" Hong Lin interjected, a little dissatisfied, and interrupted Uncle Hong's voice.

Pei Ziyun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and said, "Tell me about the people in the city, the Tusi, and the various ethnic groups." ”

These are not sensitive things, these people are drinking, some alcohol, just talking, they are familiar with the surroundings, otherwise they can't do it, listening to these words, it gradually became clear, and suddenly had some understanding of Nanli's ecology.

Pei Ziyun took a peanut with chopsticks and ate it, chewed it, and thought to himself: "Listening to these words, there are four suitable targets, but Master Wu is a big official, even if I go as a lifter, I won't get much welcome." ”

"Lord Dai is a medium-sized official, and although I may not get much help when I go. ”

"There is a benefactor Bo, the family is a small toast in the previous dynasty, with Nanli blood, the official is small but the latent power is good, especially the love of sinicization, you can go. ”

"There's one that's too small to leave alone. ”

This thought was to laugh: "Come, drink, drink." ”

After eating all the wine and meat, Pei Ziyun threw a tael of silver to Hong Yu, Hong Yu was already drunk and a little confused, but he was still very agile when he took the silver, Hong Lin was not drunk on weekdays, Pei Ziyun said: "Take me to Shiba Master Bo's house." ”

The two went out, bought gifts, and arrived at the main bookkeeper's house.

The main bookkeeper is quite luxurious, Pei Ziyun stepped forward and handed over the post: "Yingzhou Xie Yuan Pei Ziyun asks to see." ”

When the doorman heard this, he hurriedly smiled: "Childe, please wait." ”

Just a little while, a man who looked a little different from ordinary Han people went out, and he was very attentive: "But Pei Jieyuan, who is going to drink?"

"I heard it was Pei Ziyun just now, I felt familiar, I have read your poems, really admirable poems, please come in, please come in. ”

"Serve tea!" With the voice of the main book, two girls in Miao costumes came with tea.

"The master bookkeeper praised it falsely. Pei Ziyun said modestly.

"There are no false praises, what I say is what I say from my heart. The master bookkeeper looked at Pei Ziyun with blazing eyes: "Recently, Pei Xie Yuan has a masterpiece, let me watch it?"

Looking at the main book, Pei Ziyun's heart moved, and he smiled: "I have it, but the articles and poems have a number of days, and I dedicated a poem to the emperor and the eldest princess last time." ”

"Oh?" Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, the lord's thin eyes lit up: "Duke Xie Yuangong has also seen the emperor and the eldest princess, Nanli is remote, I really haven't heard of it, and I ask Duke Xie Yuangong to talk about it." ”

Pei Ziyun casually said something about what he had seen and heard in Kyoto, and said: "This poem is tasteless, you can write it." ”

"Xie Yuangong later. The main bookkeeper's face was full of surprise: "Fetch me pen and ink." ”

After a while, a maid presented the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and the main book stepped forward to take the ink and grind, Pei Ziyun took the pen and wrote the poem, and the main book sighed: "True celebrities!"

Restrained his smile, the master hesitated for a moment, put down the poem scroll lightly, and raised his head: "Xie Yuangong has something to do with me, I am just a master book, but it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance." ”

Pei Ziyun snorted: "Donor Bo, you underestimate me too much, I was received by the emperor and the eldest princess, and I also have a thin name, I have land and a house at home, and there is no shortage of silver, how can I make the lord Bo embarrassed?"

"It's just that there is an elder in my family, who went to Nanli in his early years, and I read the genealogy in my family, and my mother told me to find the roots, but I am not familiar with the place, so I came to find the main book today and check it. ”

Listening to the words, the main bookkeeper's nervous face eased, and he was a little ashamed: "So that's the case, I hope that Duke Xie Yuangong will tell me the names and characteristics of the elders, so I can investigate." ”

"Li Xianlian was originally a Taoist priest. Pei Ziyun said: "I don't know what pseudonym I have when I get to Nanli, and what occupation I have." ”

"This matter is easy to do, Xie Yuangong, you leave an address, wait for me to order someone to find out, and come to inform Xie Yuangong." The master bookkeeper said with a smile, he was originally born in Tusi, he understood the villages and mountains very well, and he went to the city to become an official, it can be said that there are people in the three roads of black and white, not to mention anything else, ask about something, find someone, it is indeed the right person.

"I don't have an address, so I'll just find an inn nearby. Pei Ziyun waved his hand and said, and after a while, he said goodbye.

"Who said that this person is bold and loves Sinicization?" Pei Ziyun went out and sneered secretly: "This person is really cunning." ”

Although I have only known each other for half an hour, Pei Ziyun has already understood that this person's so-called boldness, especially his love for sinicization, is completely because Da Xu flattened Nanli to restore state governance and increased control, so this person speculated, showed his love for sinicization, and won the appreciation of the government.

"Maybe it's still a traitor from the Tusi faction who broke into the government. ”

"It's just that this person doesn't matter to me, this person is a local snake, it shouldn't be difficult to help me find someone, and that's all my relationship with him. ”

Thinking about it, he shouted: "Hong Lin, find me a cleaner inn." ”
