"Why not! If there is no imperial court, will it send a large army to encircle and suppress?" said the little second-hand foot as he neatly set up the tea bowls for Li Yi and Gai Fei.

"It's quite reassuring to see that everyone in the city is doing business as usual. Li Yi opened the folding fan in his hand and asked casually.

"You two just came to Luoyang. Xiao Er said with a smile.

"Yes, what does it matter?"

"Then it's no wonder, our people here are not worried about bandits, but about ......"

"Why is there so much nonsense, why don't you go and bring our good wine?"

Xiao Er's words were suddenly interrupted by a middle-aged man, who was not tall, had a round face, and looked kind, but there was a hint of shrewdness in his eyes.

Xiao Er reluctantly agreed. Li Yi knew that there must be something strange in this, he and Gai Fei glanced at each other, only to hear the man say:

"The two guest officers should be from the capital, and the craftsmanship of the small shop can be compared to the capital. ”

"Okay, then put a few of your best dishes on top. ”

The shopkeeper agreed, poured tea for Li Yi and Gai Fei, and then left.

"Looks like it's not going to be easy. Li Yi said, Gai Fei nodded, his eyes were fixed on the counter, and the shopkeeper was talking to Xiao Er. Although his voice was not high, because there were not many people in the store now, he still heard a few words "Beijing", "Chengda" and "Guanjun", and then he could only hear the shopkeeper reprimanding the young man for causing trouble or something.

"Isn't this Lord Cheng the political envoy of Henan?" Li Yi asked Gai Fei in a low voice.

Gai Fei asked like this, knowing that Li Yi also heard it, he nodded.

The two stopped talking very tacitly, drank wine, and said these irrelevant words. The shopkeeper saw the two of them like this, and he was relieved.

Although this shop may not look big, the sake tastes good, and the food tastes good. Li Yi and Gai Fei were eating happily, and they couldn't help but tell Xiao Er to serve wine again.

Xiao Er was reprimanded by the shopkeeper and stopped saying superfluous words. At this time, I heard that there was a request for wine here. I promised to send it over. He picked up the small jar and was about to pour the wine, but he was knocked on, and the wine in the jar was poured on Li Yi's body at once, and suddenly the sky was clear on the robe. And he got a big piece of wet, and he saw that a piece of clothing was destroyed.

Xiao Er was frightened, he looked at the style of these two sons, how could they also be the sons of rich and noble families, and the clothes on their bodies were worth more than a dozen taels of silver, to say the least. How can I afford to pay for it. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty, Li Yi and Gai Fei deliberately made this move in order to be able to find out the news.

Li Yi pretended to be angry and reprimanded Xiao Er, Xiao Er was so frightened that he was frightened, and the shopkeeper also hurried over to compensate Li Yi.

"Isn't it useless to pay compensation, the clothes have become like this, but it is not delaying things, how can you afford it?"

The shopkeeper's sad face, Xiao Er had to sift the chaff, Li Yi looked secretly funny. But his face was very angry. Gai Fei said at this time:

"Brother Li, I don't think this young man did it on purpose, I'm afraid that even if you let him work for a year, I can't afford to pay for it, so I think it's better to forget it. When the shopkeeper and Xiao Er heard this, they all looked at Gai Fei gratefully.

"A piece of clothing is enough, but we still have to go to see Lao Huang, how can I go like this?" Li Yi said indignantly.

"That's right. Gai Fei said, Xiao Er's heart, which had been slightly relieved, instantly rose to his throat again, and looked at Gai Fei with a pleading expression.

"It's better like this, I'll go and stabilize Lao Huang first. Let them find you a house, make a brazier to dry your clothes, and then someone will iron them, and you will come over. ”

"Okay. Okay, no problem, no problem, you can rest assured that it will be done. The shopkeeper hurriedly replied.

"For Brother Gai's sake, I won't pursue it, and quickly find me a room to change my clothes. Li Yi said helplessly.

The shopkeeper and Xiao Er immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The shopkeeper instructed Xiao Er to take Li Yi to the back compartment, and then ordered someone to bring the brazier in. Gai Fei pretended to be going to see someone, and said loudly to Li Yi.

"Brother Li, I'll go over first, you come over as soon as possible!"

"Got it, got it. Li Yi pretended to be impatient and said, squeezing his eyes when he entered the cubicle.

Li Yi entered the cubicle, took off his run, and wore only his middle coat. The little two put the garment on the smoker and roasted it carefully. The shopkeeper was not at ease, so he came in to see that his man was carefully roasting his clothes before exiting to greet the guests. Li Yi saw that the shopkeeper was gone, so he asked the little er:

"Little second brother, let me ask you, what did you say just now?"

"What, what I said just now, the villain has a bad memory, but I forgot it. Xiao Er was a little nervous, he didn't expect Li Yi to ask him about it.

"It's that the people in your city don't worry about bandits, if they worry about anything. ”

"Guest officer, just spare the little one, the little one is really nonsense. Xiao Er hurriedly begged for mercy.

Li Yi smiled slightly, took out a piece of silver from the purse on the table, and held it in his palm.

"You said, the silver is yours. ”

When Xiao Er saw the silver, his eyes suddenly changed, this piece of silver was enough for two taels, and he couldn't get so much for a month.

"Still not going?" Li Yi watched Xiao Er's eyes change, knowing that he was already tempted, so he struck while the iron was hot.

Xiao Er put Li Yi's clothes aside, and picked up the piece of silver with trembling hands.

"It's all ...... It's all mine?"

"Well, you're satisfied, and there's more. The corners of Li Yi's mouth curled up and said with a smile.

"Just ask, the little one who knows must say it all. As soon as Xiao Er heard that there would be silver, he immediately became excited.

"Don't worry, just tell me about what just happened. ”

"Yes. Xiao Er agreed, and then spoke slowly.

It turned out that the bandits in this place were originally just local farmers, and because of the repeated tax increases, they couldn't stand it, so they gathered together and occupied the mountain as the king, but in fact, they didn't do anything bad. However, the local government, in order to demand military salaries from above, repeatedly reported how they harassed the residents. Later, people were sent to encircle and suppress them, and these people were ordinary peasants, who were opponents of the official army.

However, in order to ask for more military salaries, the officers and soldiers deliberately beat them several times, always saying that bandits were rampant and difficult to eradicate, and they were really like rats teased by cats. And every time I go to encircle and suppress, I pass by the counties, eat, drink and loot, which makes the people miserable. It is estimated that he saw that the money was almost collected later, so he was ready to exterminate it in one fell swoop, and at this moment, a group of strong reinforcements came from Wan'an Mountain and defeated the official army.

After these people occupied Wan'an Mountain, they united with several small hills around them, and I heard that what kind of formation was built on the mountain, and the officers and soldiers would lose their men and horses even if they went up. Once down, he had to report to the imperial court to send a large army to encircle and suppress it. Therefore, the people are worried that the encirclement and suppression of the officials and troops will make everyone suffer again. (To be continued.) )
