The earliest city wall of Guizhou City was built in the Yuan Dynasty and was called "Shunyuan City" at that time.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Ma Ye, the commander of Guizhou and a fan of leather whips, expanded on the basis of Shunyuan Tucheng, and then had the stone city wall of Guizhou.

In the Zhengde period, there were only six gates in Guizhou City, and the "second south gate" was only allowed to pass through the soldiers.

Wang Yuan and others entered the city from the Rouyuan Gate, and outside this gate are all Tusi jurisdictions, taking the meaning of "Huairou Yuanren".

Leaning on the root of the city wall, there is a shantytown outside the city, which is mostly built for the relocated Han people. This situation was extremely common in ancient times, and when the shantytown expanded to a certain size, the government should consider building the outer city frame, and it was a great political achievement.

If the Ming court wants to change the land and return to the stream, it must at least wait for Guizhou City to build the outer city - that means that the degree of sinicization around the provincial capital has reached a delicate state.

Before that, if anyone dared to mention the words "change the land and return to the stream", they could just play the board on the court. Either the brain is sick, or the gossip confuses the public, and whoever believes is mentally retarded.

The degree of sinicization is so low, and the number of Han people is so small, who are you changing the soil to? Not only is it difficult to collect taxes, but they also have to lead troops to quell the rebellion every day, and within a few years, they will collapse the household bosses.

"Bookshops, paper shops, anyway, are related to reading, and the shops are all in Beicheng."

Yuan Gang led the donkey into the city and said to Shen Fuxuan: "Let's go to Dongcheng and Nancheng first to sell mountain goods, exchange some coarse salt and come back, and then go to Beicheng to buy pen, ink, paper and inkstone." ”

Master Shen was a little puzzled and asked, "What is the pattern of this Guizhou City?" ”

Yuan Gang pointed to the front and said: "Guizhou Dusi, Guizhou Wei, Guizhou Qianwei, and the administrative offices are all located in Nancheng. It was the territory of the soldiers, and the steel knife in my hand was bought in Nancheng. The crow feathers and peacock feathers collected by the villagers can also be sold in the south city, and the guard is willing to buy these things to make arrow feathers. He pointed to the left and right sides and said, "Xicheng is the territory of the Shuixi An's clan, and Dongcheng is the territory of the Shuidong Song clan, and there are two places for the Guizhou Xuanwei Division. ”

Master Shen nodded and said, "In this way, the seat of the Guizhou Political Secretary is in Beicheng." ”

Yuan Gang said with a smile: "The political envoy is indeed in Beicheng, but the seat of Guizhu's chief lawsuit is also in Beicheng. Our political envoy from Guizhou, not to mention that the decree can't get out of Guizhou City, he can't even get out of Beicheng, and it only works on a few streets near the administrative office. ”

Master Shen couldn't help but complain: "This kind of provincial chief official is better to be happy as a magistrate in Jiangnan." ”

The political envoy of Guizhou is indeed aggrieved, nominally he is the chief official of a province, but he is surrounded by reckless men with knives. The soldiers and men in the south city were disobedient, and the Tusi in the east and west were not obedient, and the land reserved by the north city was mixed in with a barbarian, and because of the system problems, they could not go deep into the state and county, so they were directly mixed from high-ranking officials to the director of the street office.

The same is true of Guizhou's procuratorial envoys, who are dignified provincial public prosecutors, procuratorates, and law chiefs, whose main job now is to inspect the situation of education -- pure inspection, and nothing else can be done except inspection.

Because no one dumped him in the field of public security, procuratorate and law, he happened to be a part-time deputy student officer in Guizhou, and it happened that the official was represented by Yunnan officials, and he had not been to Guizhou for decades. As a result, Guizhou has changed its management of education according to the inspectors, but unfortunately there are only a few schools in the province. If he had spent three months inspecting all the schools in the province, he would have spent two and a half months on his way.

As the saying goes: "Three lives are unfortunate, and the county is attached to Guo; Three lives do evil, attached to the neighboring provincial capital. ”

According to this statement, the political envoys of Guizhou and the envoys of Guizhou must have lacked virtue in the eight generations of their ancestors.

Wang Yuan also came to Guizhou City for the first time, a little excited, but even more disappointed.

This broken provincial city is really not interesting, two-story buildings are rare, and there are low tiled houses everywhere.

Your tiled house is a tiled house, and the whole point is carved and painted. In fact, most of them are based on stones, and then the walls are woven with bamboo chips, and the mud is mixed with grass to paste on the top.

Yuan Zhi, this kid, was extremely excited, he was not at all rude as usual, and pointed to the front and made a fuss: "Wang Er, look, that building is so high, it actually has three floors!" ”

"Well, it's very high." Wang Yuan said casually.

The three-story building is also a landmark building in Guizhou City, no wonder Yuan Zhi can see it at a glance.

The eldest brother Wang Meng is not much better, looking left and right all the way, and he feels strange to see everything. He said: "There are so many people in the city of Guizhou, there are many more than Zazosi. ”

Everyone gradually came to Dongcheng District, and Wang Meng suddenly couldn't move his legs.

Wang Yuan turned around and shouted, "Big brother, what are you doing?" ”

Wang Meng actually twisted it, pointed to a shop on the street, and said shyly: "I...... I want to go in and have a look. ”

It was a jewelry store.

Yuan Gang suddenly understood that who had never been young, and said with a smile: "Go, go and come back quickly." ”

Wang Meng walked into the store with great trepidation, and immediately took a fancy to a silver hairpin and asked, "How much does this cost?" ”

The boss looked at Wang Meng's clothes, and didn't open his mouth to give the price, but said, "You can't afford it." ”

"Oh." Wang scratched his head violently.

The boss pointed to the side again: "Those are made of copper, and the price is cheaper." ”

Wang Meng was still weak-hearted, although he liked everything, he only picked a pair of earrings and asked, "How to sell this?" ”

The boss said coldly: "One hundred dollars." ”

"I'm ...... I don't have that much. Wang Meng swallowed, the usual rough man, his face turned red at the moment.

Wang Yuan didn't know when he entered the store, and asked with a smile: "Look at how much money can we knock out from poor mountain people like us?" Give a sincere price, how about five cents? ”

The boss rolled his eyes and said, "Five cents is not enough for copper." ”

"And how much do you say?" Wang Yuan asked.

The boss thought for a moment: "Fifty dollars, you take it." ”

Wang Yuan said to the eldest brother, "How many do you have?" ”

Wang Meng took out the copper coins and counted them one by one, which was the money he had saved for several years, and he usually bartered for copper coins at all. After counting it several times and confirming that there were no omissions, he said, "I only have thirty-eight yuan." ”

The boss was a little impatient, and said with a disgusted face: "Thirty-eight is thirty-eight, when I did a loss-making business, I was too lazy to mess around with you." ”

"Huh?"

Wang Meng was stunned, then overjoyed, took out the money to pay the bill, and said: "Thank you, thank you, you are really a good person!" ”

The two brothers walked out of the shop.

Wang Yuan teased: "Big brother, who do you buy jewelry for?" ”

"Don't ask, you're too young to understand this." With a happy smile on his face, Wang Meng took out a rag, carefully wrapped the earrings, and put them on his chest for safekeeping.

I don't understand?

You're hungry for other people's bodies!

Beware of the day when the owner of the village knows and breaks all three of your legs!

For a whole hour after that, Wang Meng was in a state of flux, and almost collided with passers-by several times.

His mind was full of fantasies, imagining how ecstatic Fang Amei was when she received the earrings; Imagine them walking hand in hand in the woods, singing mountain songs together against the rising sun; Imagine Fang Amei wearing earrings and wearing beautiful new clothes to marry him......

By the way, when I have a child with Fang Amei, I will also ask Mr. Shen to help name me!

It took about half a day, and all the mountain goods brought by the two donkeys were finally replaced with coarse salt.

As the sky got dark, Yuan Gang led everyone to find the inn, and he only planned to open a room. Master Shen can live in a hotel, and other people can squat on the side of the street, wrapped in sackcloth, and they can make up for the night, and there is no need to spend that unjust money.

At this moment, there was another sound of horses' hooves, and passers-by avoided it.

I saw the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, taking the lead, disgraced.

The guards behind her were equally embarrassed, one of them even missing half of his face, and his teeth and cheekbones could be seen clearly. There was also a broken thigh that was lying on the back of a companion's horse, and he had to return to the city sideways like this.

Wang Yuan secretly laughed when he saw this, it seems that the combat effectiveness of the national treasure is very strong.

If these people hunt pandas, they can always find a way. I guess I wanted to catch the panda alive as a pet, but I lost a lot of money by my big iron-eating beast.

Deserve!

The little girl ran wildly along the street for a while, and when she was about to arrive at the mansion of the Xuanwei Division in Guizhou, she suddenly saw a familiar figure in front of her, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly reined in and wanted to turn around and run away.

This man was about thirty years old, wearing a square scarf, a Confucian shirt, and a folding fan in his hand. When he saw the little girl turn around, he immediately scolded: "Stop! ”

The little girl had a bitter face, so she had to dismount and say, "Big brother, are you coming to my father?" ”

The man's face was unhappy and he said, "What trouble are you going to make again?" ”

The little girl threw the whip to the guard: "I didn't get into trouble, I just wanted to catch a bamboo bear." That bamboo bear was too faceless, he didn't listen to any persuasion, and he even started with us, and injured several of my entourage. ”

When the man heard this, he actually breathed a sigh of relief, as if this reason was acceptable, and only admonished: "When my grandfather was alive, he practiced benevolence and passed on poetry and rites. You and I are both descendants of the Song family, and we must not harm the people, nor abuse our subordinates and slaves. Remember? ”

"Got it," the little girl was impatient, "you should tell my father these words, he is the Guizhou consolation envoy." ”

The man was immediately discouraged, and said sadly: "Uncle can't listen to persuasion." The people under the jurisdiction of my Song clan are sad day by day, and if they continue like this, I am afraid that there will be another tribal rebellion. ”

The little girl said disdainfully: "If you rebel, you will rebel, I just took the troops to quell the rebellion, let them know how powerful I am Song Ling'er!" ”

"Ridiculous!"

"Confused!"

"I don't know what to say!"

The man reprimanded repeatedly, gritted his teeth and said, "Your father is extremely cruel, and he will definitely bring the Song family into a place of no return!" ”

The little girl stopped talking, her brother was a nerd, and when she said something unclear all day long, the ears of the clan had already heard the cocoon.

The man said bitterly: "The Song clan of Wushuidong is really Han, and the genealogy can be traced back to the early Tang Dynasty. In the past hundreds of years, he has been in the company of barbarians all day long, and he has been willing to degenerate and call himself a barbarian. When he arrives under the Nine Springs, what face does he have to meet his ancestors? ”

The little girl still didn't speak, she had already experienced. The more others argued, the more energetic the clan brother became, and it was better to ignore him.

The man chattered and said some gibberish. But in the end, it stopped, and he walked away angrily, reciting Han poems that he learned from nowhere along the way.
