Early the next morning, Han Zhan was sitting in the study reading a book, and the patch came in to report to him: "Childe, Miss Cai is outside the door, can you let her in!" ”

Knowing that Cai Yan was outside the door, Han Zhan was overjoyed, and he hurriedly stood up and said to the patch: "What are you still doing here, why don't you invite Miss Cai in quickly." Patch agreed, turned and walked out of the study.

After a while, Cai Yan followed behind the patch and walked into the study. She came to Han Zhan's face, bent down to salute, and said softly, "The slave family has seen Tinghou!" ”

Han Zhan hurriedly stepped forward to help Cai Yan up, and said with a smile: "Zhao Ji doesn't have to be so polite, please sit down." ”

After Cai Yan sat down, Han Zhan also sat down opposite and asked, "Is Zhao Ji used to living here?" ”

"The accommodation arranged by Tinghou for the slave family, the slave family is very satisfied." A sweet smile appeared on Cai Yan's face, staring at Han Zhan with bright eyes, and said, "Tinghou, the slave family wants to walk around Jizhou City and buy something." I don't know if it's possible? ”

Hearing Cai Yan say that she wanted to go out for a walk, Han Zhan hesitated, don't look at the time of occupying Jizhou City, it is not a short time, maybe there are still remnants of Yuan Shao in the city, who are hiding nearby, monitoring the Prefecture Governor's Mansion day and night, if Cai Yan goes out at this time, there may be danger.

Seeing that Han Zhan didn't reply for a long time, Cai Yan's face couldn't help but show a disappointed expression. She stood up and said faintly: "If Tinghou feels inconvenient, the slave family is not reluctant, so I will leave." ”

"Akihime, don't go yet." Seeing Cai Yan get up and walk out, Han Zhan hurriedly rushed over and grabbed her arm, and said hurriedly: "Ben Hou was thinking about things just now, and he was in a trance, Zhao Ji should not blame Ben Hou." Seeing that Cai Yan was still bowing his head and pouting and refused to speak, he hurriedly added, "It's better like this, in order to punish Ben Hou for neglecting Zhao Ji, punish Ben Hou for accompanying Zhao Ji to go shopping." ”

Hearing that Han Zhan planned to accompany him to go shopping, Cai Yan's pretty face immediately flew into two blushes, although he didn't have the slightest objection in his heart, he still said insincerely: "No need, there are many nobles in the pavilion, let's go to the slave family alone." ”

Fortunately, Han Zhan was good at observing words and feelings, and when he saw Cai Yan's face flushed like an apple, he guessed that the other party still hoped that he could accompany her shopping, so he said with a hippie smile: "In order to accompany Zhao Ji shopping, even if there are more official duties, you have to put them down for the time being, and it is not too late to deal with them when you come back after shopping." ”

After learning that Han Zhan was going to travel in micro-service, Chen Zhi rushed over in a panic and dissuaded: "Lord, there are remnants of Yuan Shao in the city, so don't get into danger in person." ”

"Uncle Zhi," since Han Zhan had already agreed to accompany Cai Yan shopping, where was there any reason to go back on his word, he instructed Chen Zhi: "You can arrange a few people to follow us from a distance." ”

Seeing that Han Zhan insisted on going his own way, Chen Zhi couldn't stop him anymore, so he could only reply respectfully: "My subordinates obey orders." ”

Han Zhan, who was dressed in civilian clothes, walked out of the back of the state governor's mansion side by side with Cai Yan, and walked along the street towards the front, followed only by the patch and Cai Yan's maid. Chen Zhi sent ten guards and followed twenty paces away. Such a long distance will not disturb Han Zhan and Cai Yan; Once something happens, you can rush to the rescue in time.

Walking on the spacious streets, seeing the shops on both sides and the pedestrians coming and going on the street, Han Zhan couldn't help but secretly sigh, he couldn't imagine that this Jizhou was still quite prosperous, even if he moved the administrative office to Yecheng in the future, he would have to send important civil and military officials to stay here.

"Tinghou!" When Han Zhan was considering the civil and military candidates to stay in Jizhou City, he suddenly heard Cai Yan calling himself, and quickly calmed down, turned his head and asked, "Zhao Ji, what's the matter?" ”

Cai Yan pointed to a silk village next to him, and said to Han Zhan in a consultative tone: "Tinghou, let's go to the silk village to have a look." ”

"Let's go, let's go," Han Zhan guessed that there was probably no ready-to-wear store or anything like that in this era, and if he wanted to wear any clothes, he could only go to a silk village or cloth store, buy silk and cloth and go home to ask a tailor or make it himself. Therefore, as soon as Cai Yan made this request, he agreed without hesitation: "Let's go in and have a look." ”

Seeing Han Zhan and Cai Yan enter the Silk Village, the guards who followed behind also stopped, knowing that they might not come out too early, so they sat down in front of the food stall on the side of the street nearby to have something to eat. However, even when they were eating, their eyes glanced at the silk village from time to time, so that they could follow Han Zhan in time when he came out.

Han Zhan and Cai Yan entered the silk village, and a guy immediately greeted them, and asked respectfully: "Son, young lady, I don't know what the two of you want?" ”

Cai Yan couldn't help but blush slightly when she heard the guy call her young lady, but she didn't correct the other party, but glanced at Han Zhan next to her shyly and timidly. Han Zhan didn't pay attention to Cai Yan's gaze on him, but said to the guy, "If you have any new silk in the store, take it out and take a look." ”

Seeing Han Zhan and Cai Yan dressed gorgeously and with extraordinary bearing, he knew that he must be rich, and when he heard Han Zhan speak so richly, he immediately nodded and said: "Please wait a while, the young lady, the small one will take out the best silk and let the two of you choose." ”

Seeing that the guy kept putting all kinds of silk and satin on the table in front of him, Cai Yan turned his head and said to Han Zhan: "Enough, don't let the guy move again, this is already too much." ”

"Alright, man, don't move anymore." When Han Zhan heard Cai Yan say this, he hurriedly greeted his guy, "We have chosen among these." ”

The guards who were waiting outside saw Han Zhan and Cai Yan and a maid come out of the silk village after a long time, but they didn't see the patch. Just when everyone thought it was strange, the door curtain came out of it, and he staggered out with a bundle of silk in his arms.

Seeing that the guards were still sitting in front of the food stall eating, he shouted: "Come here two people!" ”

As he shouted, two guards immediately walked over and asked respectfully, "Patch steward, I don't know what to order?" ”

"Don't you see the silk I'm holding?" Patch said angrily, "Don't hurry up and take it." After the two guards held the silk in their hands, the patch quickened his pace to catch up with Han Zhan in front.

Han Zhan walked slowly along the street, and suddenly his eyes stayed on a shop sign, only to see that it read "Zigu Mutton Soup Restaurant". Seeing this store sign, he couldn't help but stop, and thought to himself: The owner of this mutton soup restaurant can't be the Zigu from Sheguo County, right? Since she went bankrupt and paid the atonement money for Gebe, she didn't know where to go, but she didn't expect her to move to Jizhou.

Seeing that Han Zhan was stagnant, Cai Yan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Tinghou, why don't you leave?" ”

Han Zhan pouted at the shop sign and said, "Zhao Ji, I saw this shop sign and remembered a few acquaintances. ”

"Acquaintance, what acquaintance?" Cai Yan asked with some surprise: "Among the people who opened the mutton soup restaurant, there are actually acquaintances of Tinghou?" ”

Han Zhan understood Cai Yan's reaction very well, the status of businessmen in the Han Dynasty was low, even if they were rich and armory, they also had no status, so Cai Yan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that Han Zhan knew such a person.

"We've been walking for so long, presumably Akihime is hungry too, let's go in and drink the mutton soup to warm up." Han Zhan was afraid that Cai Yan would not follow him into such a mutton soup restaurant, and specially emphasized: "Her family's bread and mutton soup are a must in Sheguo County." ”

Hearing Han Zhan say this, Cai Yan knew that it would definitely not work if he didn't go in, so he nodded and said in a low voice, "But it's up to the Pavilion Marquis to decide." ”

The guards who followed behind saw Han Zhan enter a mutton soup restaurant, knowing that these places were mixed, and they were afraid that he would be in danger, so four guards with superb martial arts pretended to be ordinary diners and followed into the mutton soup restaurant.

As soon as Han Zhan and the others entered the door, a junior second greeted them and asked respectfully, "How many sons are there?" ”

Han Zhan stared at the other party, this junior who ran the hall was actually the little white he had seen in Sheguo County. Then he smiled and asked, "Xiaobai, do you still know this son?" ”

Xiaobai looked up, the person in front of him was very kind, and after a closer look, he immediately recognized the person as Jizhou Mu Han Zhan. While saying, "It turned out to be ......" and prepared to kneel and salute. Han Zhan pulled him by the hand and whispered, "Don't reveal my identity." Find us a secluded place again. ”

Xiao Bai nodded again and again, and at the same time flashed his body to the side, nodded and said, "Childe, please go inside, there is a private room inside, quiet." ”

Zigu's new store is much larger than when it was in Sheguo County, and there are several special private rooms. Xiao Bai took Han Zhan and the others into the private room, wiped the table with a towel on his shoulder, and asked respectfully, "I don't know what Tinghou wants to eat?" ”

"Your mutton soup is good, give each of us a night." Han Zhan remembered the dough cake that made him have an endless aftertaste, and ordered, "By the way, there will be two portions of that dough cake too." ”

"Please wait," Xiao Bai said with a smile on his face, "What you want, you will come right away." ”

Not long after Xiao Bai left, Zi Gu took Xiao Bai and another Xiao Er, carrying a tray, and brought in the mutton soup and pastry that Han Zhan had ordered. After Xiao Er put the things on the table one by one, Zigu waved him away. After Xiao Er left the private room and closed the door casually, Zigu and Xiaobai hurriedly saluted Han Zhan: "The slave family (small) has seen Tinghou!" ”

"Excuse me, excuse me!" Han Zhan asked Zigu with a smile: "Since the farewell of Sheguo County, I haven't seen you for almost half a year now, but I didn't expect you to come to Jizhou City to open a store." ”

"Ge Bei has an uncle, who has a bit of a thin income here, and after we left Sheguo County, we came here, and with the funding of his uncle, we opened this mutton soup restaurant." Zigu explained to Han Zhan: "Fortunately, the taste of my soup restaurant is good, so business has been booming. ”

After Han Zhan waited for Zi Gu to finish speaking, he nodded and said to her, "Zi Gu, if there is anything difficult, just open your mouth, Ben Hou will definitely help you solve it." ”

Xiao Bai heard Han Zhan say such words, and hurriedly squeezed his eyebrows at Zi Gu, as if he was hinting at the other party. But Zi Gu pretended not to see anything, looked at her nose and nose, and stood in front of Han Zhan without saying a word.

Han Zhan saw Xiaobai's small movements, and hurriedly coughed lightly, and said, "Zigu, can't you trust Benhou?" ”

"No, no," Zi Gu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Tinghou has misunderstood, although there is a little trouble, but the slave family can deal with it, so they don't dare to bother Tinghou." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a noise outside the private room. Hearing this voice, Xiao Bai's face suddenly turned blue, and Zigu also frowned.

Han Zhan listened attentively to the movement outside, only to hear someone shouting loudly: "Where is the boss, let her come out immediately, otherwise I will smash her small shop." ”

When Xiao Bai heard this voice, the muscles on his face twitched violently, he pulled up his sleeves, and was about to rush outside, but he was pulled by Zi Gu to death: "Xiao Bai, don't be impulsive, the strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake, don't be like him." ”

The people outside shouted a few more times, and when they saw that the boss did not come forward, they began to smash dishes and bowls. Seeing that the people outside were making too much trouble, Han Zhan snorted coldly, got up and walked to the door, opened the door and walked out.

He saw that the hall was in shambles, with tables overturned and dishes shattered. And four or five fierce people were still smashing the dishes while chasing the diners.

"Stop!" Han Zhan roared violently, and after the other party stopped, he said righteously: "In broad daylight, you are doing anything here, aren't you afraid of the royal law?" ”

A burly middle-aged man walked up to Han Zhan, and after taking a closer look at him, he sneered and said, "No wonder Zigu is reluctant to follow me, it turns out that she has found a little white face." I advise you to leave early, or I will beat you to the point where you can't take care of yourself. ”

As a pastor of Jizhou, he was actually threatened on his own territory, Han Zhan laughed angrily, he asked the other party and asked, "Who are you, why did you smash Zigu's shop?" ”

"Boy," the middle-aged man said arrogantly: "Uncle, I am Xiao Hu from the East Gate, Uncle Xiao, nicknamed Zhenshan Tiger." A few days ago, uncle, I came here to drink mutton soup, and I fell in love with the boss here, so that she could follow me to enjoy happiness, but I didn't expect her to know how to lift up, and dared to refuse me in public, so where can I put my face? If she still refuses to obey me today, my uncle will burn down this small shop. ”

"Uncle Zhenshan Tiger Xiao!" After Han Zhan repeated the other party's name, he said in a disdainful tone: "It sounds quite scary, but it doesn't scare me." I advise you to leave obediently, and don't come to harass Zigu again in the future, otherwise I will definitely make your life worse than death. ”

"Yo, brethren, do you hear?" Xiao Hu turned his head to his younger brothers and said, "There are still people who dare to threaten my Uncle Xiao, this is the old birthday star who hanged himself." I'm still stunned what to do, give it to me, break his hands and feet first, and see if he dares to be so arrogant. ”
