Ask for collection, ask for red tickets)

Zheng Fei and the four of them marched fast for a few days, and finally entered the territory of Henan.

In broad daylight, there was a burst of firecrackers in the distance, Zheng Fei looked around, and saw a small city at the end of the road, and it was from the direction of that small city that the sound of firecrackers came from time to time.

Zheng Feiqi said, "What is the place ahead?" Why is it so lively? ”

Wang Jin replied, "Master, in front of you is Chenzhou, as for the sound of firecrackers...... This is thirty, and it's the New Year. Wang Jin's voice in the second half of the sentence sank significantly,

I heard Pang Wanchun whisper to himself again, "It's the New Year... Last time during the Chinese New Year, I could still eat the pork and cabbage slots wrapped by the godmother (the Song Dynasty called dumplings slots) ......,"

Zheng Fei sighed in his heart when he heard this, and secretly said that Wang Jin and Pang Wanchun touched the scene, and I was afraid that he remembered the deceased aunt of the Wang family again, so he hurriedly pretended to be relaxed and said, "Oh, it's almost the New Year, look at my memory, let's go to Chenzhou, let's spend the New Year together." ”

With that, Zheng Fei raised his horsewhip and took the lead in riding in the direction of Chenzhou, followed by Zhu Wu.

Wang Jin patted Pang Wanchun's shoulder and nodded, and the two followed.

The Song Dynasty was a key dynasty in the Chinese civilization, many customs and customs of the Chinese people began in the Song Dynasty, and the Chinese New Year was an extremely important festival in the Song Dynasty.

The four of them entered the city, but saw that the city was really a hot New Year's scene, at this time the shops on the street were basically closed, and there were not a few small merchants and vendors, but there were still a lot of people on the street, all of them were smiling, and when they met the people they knew, they gave their hands to greet the New Year, and the sound of firecrackers on the street came mostly from groups of children.

Zheng Fei didn't expect that the New Year in the Song Dynasty would be more lively than a thousand years later, and he was a little sentimental for a while, at this time in previous years, he had already nested at home with his family to wrap dumplings and prepare ......Chinese New Year's Eve meals.

For a while, Zheng Fei, Wang Jin and Pang Wanchun were all touched by the scene, and continued to move forward on horseback in silence, leaving only Zhu Wushang, who had long been accustomed to it, enjoying the excitement on the street with a calm expression.

Boom! A firecracker! I don't know which naughty boy threw the firecracker next to Zheng Fei and the others, and scared the horses back a few steps.

However, this also brought Zheng Fei back to his senses, and Zheng Fei immediately sighed, collected his mood, and tried to leave these worries behind.

But a new question arises, everyone is celebrating the New Year, the shops are closed, where can their gang live?

It just so happened that at this time, a young junior came to him, like a scholar, who was walking in a hurry and didn't know where to go, Zheng Fei got off the horse and greeted him and arched his hand, "Brother Lao, I want to ask something." ”

The scholar was first startled when he saw Zheng Fei's fierce appearance, and then saw that Zheng Fei had a good attitude, so he also saluted, "Please speak." ”

Zheng Fei asked, "We are passing passengers, and we want to ask where there are inns in the city with open doors to stay overnight." ”

"Oh," the scholar nodded, and after a careful thought, he said, "The restaurants in the city are basically closed, and I'm afraid you can only go to the City God Temple in the south of the city tonight to spend the night." ”

"This ......," Zheng Fei looked embarrassed, this Chinese New Year, it was a bit too miserable to go to the City God Temple without eating or drinking to be frozen overnight, Zheng Fei reluctantly arched his hand to the scholar and said, "Thank you, little brother." ”

Seeing Zheng Fei's appearance, the scholar hesitated for a moment, thought about it and asked, "There really is a place to go." ”

Zheng Fei was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked anxiously, "Where?" ”

The scholar pointed to the north and said, "Go north from the intersection in front of you, and you can see a mansion at the end, where there is a lady Han, who eats fasting and recites Buddha and is kind to charity, where do you go to ask, if you are lucky, you may be able to get a room." But don't have any bad intentions, the owner of that family is a general, very powerful! ”

Zheng Fei's heart moved, knowing that this scholar was worried about attracting thieves to that family, so he intimidated him in advance to play a preventive role, this scholar was also kind, but he didn't care what generals were not generals, and he was not a wanted criminal, so he could have a place to live tonight, so he hurriedly saluted the scholar again, "Thank you, thank you!" ”

The scholar nodded, and began to hurry away again.

Zheng Fei got back on the horse and said to Zhu Wu, "Let's go, try your luck." ”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Sure enough, it was an imposing mansion with the door closed.

Zheng Fei tidied up his clothes, then went up and knocked on the door,

Immediately, there was a voice from inside, "Who?" ”

Zheng Fei replied, "We are passing passengers, the inns in the city are closed today, I heard that the owner here is kind and charitable, he is a great kind person, and I have come to ask for a room to avoid the cold." Let's give the money as well. ”

Then, I saw a small crack in the door, and a head wearing a small hat poked out from it, the man looked at Zheng Fei, Zheng Fei hurriedly smiled and arched his hand,

The man looked at Zhu Wu and the others again, and seemed to frown.

Zheng Fei immediately took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and handed it over and said, "Please make it convenient for the little brother." ”

The man's eyes lit up when he saw Yinzi, his attitude was obviously better, and he said to Zheng Fei, "You wait a minute, I'll go in and report and ask." ”

With that, he closed the door again.

Zheng Fei and the four of them had no choice but to stand up at the door.

Fortunately, after a while, the door finally opened again, this time directly opening half of the door, just now the man came out first, and saw a middle-aged man who was a little fat following him,

The man pointed at Zheng Fei and the four of them said respectfully to the middle-aged man, "Chief, it's them." ”

The middle-aged man looked at Zheng Fei and said, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" ”

Zheng Fei replied, "This ...... I only know that it is the house of a great benevolent man, Aunt Han. ”

The middle-aged man continued, "Then do you know who our old lady's son is? ”

Zheng Feiyao's head,

The middle-aged man said, "The master of our family is the training envoy of the Chenzhou regiment, and he has thousands of elite soldiers, so I told you to give you a wake-up call." (Note: The regimental training envoy, from the fifth grade, is about equivalent to the major regimental level.) ）

Zheng Fei laughed in his heart, I don't care what your master does, but his heart moved, and secretly said that this fat manager is also dutiful, and sure enough, he listened to the middle-aged man continue, "It stands to reason that this is the New Year, you shouldn't greet outsiders anymore, but even if you are lucky, my old lady pities you travelers who can't go home after the New Year, and I can't bear you to be frozen outside, so I agree that you will stay overnight tonight." ”

Zheng Fei was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly thanked Zhu Wu and the others for their kindness.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Come with me." ”

After that, he turned around and entered the door, and Zheng Fei and the three of them led the horse and hurriedly followed.

After entering the courtyard, several family members greeted him, took the reins from the hands of Zheng Fei and the others, and led the horses to other places.

Zheng Fei looked at the courtyard, although it was not magnificent, it was clean and neat, and there was a large open space in the corner of the courtyard, with eighteen kinds of weapons and some stone piers for exercise, which was the so-called training ground for the regimental training envoys.

The four of them followed the middle-aged man to the backyard, turned a few corners, and came to a row of bungalows, only to see that one of the rooms was lit up, and several maids and housekeepers had just come out of it.

The middle-aged man pointed to the brightly lit room and said, "You can stay there tonight, and I will order someone to bring some food later." ”

Zheng Fei thanked again and again,

The middle-aged man nodded and turned to leave,

Wang Jin hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to see if he knew this so-called group training envoy, so he pretended to ask casually, "Dare to ask who is the surname of the group training envoy here?" ”

The middle-aged man didn't look back, and said as he walked, "The master of our family is the training envoy of the Chenzhou regiment, Master Han Taohan. ”

Wang Jin nodded lightly, shook his head at Zheng Fei and the others with a relaxed face, indicating that he didn't know, and then Wang Jin entered the house with Pang Wanchun.

Zhu Wugang wanted to enter the house, but he looked at Zheng Fei but was slightly stunned,

I saw Zheng Fei standing alone on the spot, with a strange expression on his face.

Zhu Wu asked, "Brother Zheng, what's wrong with you?" Come inside."

Zheng Fei smiled bitterly and shook his head, the secret world was so small that he actually got into Han Tao's house.
