Final Chapter. 274. Officials and the people

In three days, only three days, Li Zilin led 30,000 Qi Yuan troops, all of whom crossed the Tongtong River and entered Fuyu City on Zhongshan Road. With this new force, plus the thousands of Zhongshan governor's army who had finally been resupplied and were eager to take revenge; and the 2,000 Youbei cavalry who had taken off their heavy armor, the three sides relied on each other and jointly weaved a triangular giant net, and slowly tightened their pockets, strangling all the fleeing soldiers of the Shenshi tribe step by step.

At the same time, Mugel, who was defending against the enemy in Cloudsdale, also received two gifts from his nephew Yan Qinghong. When he opened the two beautifully made golden silk nan wood boxes, he found that they contained two human heads "pickled" in white ash! After taking it out and identifying it carefully, Mugol was so excited that he almost died suddenly on the spot!

The owners of these two heads are the great troubles in their hearts - the great Han Chaolu of the Shenshi tribe, and the master mother Saldi!

Overjoyed, Mugel immediately ordered his 8,000 rangers to pour out of the nest and march eastward with all his might, completely sweeping the ASEAN grassland! At this point, the battle for the Golden Horde of the Khan in the Mobei grassland has come to a complete end; As for the rest of the details, it's just the finishing touches.

The steppe is about to usher in a Mandate of Heaven, the Great Khan of Mughar. The price paid by the people of Mobei is more than sixty percent of the young men, and more than eighty percent of the horses, cattle and sheep. Whether it is the Central Plains or Mobei, changing the dynasty is tantamount to the marrow of the I Ching and being reborn, and it is inevitable to embark on the road of suffering that breaks the liver and intestines.

At the same time, a high-class restaurant in the north of Fengjing City, Jiuxianju, ushered in a group of bodyguards who made a living. Xiao Er, who was standing at the door of the store, glanced at the dress of these people, and his expression showed a little frivolity.

After all, these Jianghu people eat knife rice, and they can't earn a few taels of silver at the risk of their lives all year round, and they can't meet their "consumption standards" here.

That's how strange people are. Although the little second brother himself can't earn two taels of silver every month; However, because the guest officers he ushered in every day were all big men who were either rich or noble; Over time, I also regarded myself as a half-"master".

"A few people, don't rush into it yet! Tut-tut...... I see that all the high-ranking officials are born in person, they shouldn't be local masters, right? ”

The old dart head at the head frowned, and said with a rather unhappy expression:

"What? Could it be that the rules of the restaurant in the capital are big, and when you enter the restaurant to eat, you have to "pandao" first? ”

"Not really. It's just that at the moment, the price of wine and food in our store has also risen a lot; The villain is afraid that when a few masters will meet the account, there will be some misunderstanding, won't it hurt the harmony? ”

In fact, the expression of this little second brother's "dog's eyes look down on people" is already quite subtle; But this old dart head is also a person who has been walking for a long time, how can he not hear the soft nails hidden in his words? But this can't be blamed on all the people, after all, most of the restaurants frequented by the dart master on weekdays are very cheap second-class meat shops. Therefore, when there is no owner to follow, the dart master generally does not have this grade of restaurant.

After all, the old dart head is old, and his own self-cultivation and bearing are supported by rich experience and extraordinary skills, so he naturally can't afford to be angry with a young man. So he reached into his bosom, took out an ingot of ten taels of gold, and put it in his hand:

"Press the cabinet. Find us a clean private room on the second floor; The brothers sitting downstairs have also served me, good food is not afraid of expensive, you let the back kitchen go up; But each dart master can only divide two taels of wine! Otherwise, don't blame the master for not admitting it! ”

"Okay, a few masters, please inside! There are three people in the private room upstairs, and the new tea leaves of the year are waiting! ”

It is the duty to open the door to do business and see the money in the eye. Yang Lao Dart Head of the Sanshan Dart Bureau didn't take this little second brother seriously, and took his son and eldest apprentice to take care of himself and stepped up to the private room on the second floor.

After retiring the guy on the second floor who was serving tea, Yang Lao Dart said in a low voice to the second son beside him:

"Thanks to the great blessing of the ancestor and the grace of His Majesty, we really didn't encounter any "ballast" when we walked down this trip. As for the silver rewarded by His Majesty, it is enough for us to open another semicolon. Dad wondered if he would let you follow the senior brother and go to the Huizhou Grand Wharf to break into the brand......"

As soon as the two enterprising young men heard that the master had opened his mouth, their faces immediately showed joy that they couldn't hide; However, just as the two of them were patting their chests excitedly and preparing to express their emotions to the master, there was a sudden commotion downstairs, and there was a faint shouting and scolding from their own dart master.

Yang Shao's dart head is young and vigorous, and he still can't suppress his ability. He raised his eyebrows, pulled out the knife with a "snort", and was about to push the door out; But instead he was clasped by his senior brother's shoulders and pressed on the spot:

"On the ground of the capital, do you dare to be a bright guy at will? Don't make trouble for Master, sit down. ”

After finishing speaking, the senior brother put his long baggage on the table, rearranged his clothes, and said to Yang Lao's dart:

"Master, you drink tea first, I'll go down and take a look......"

Before he could finish speaking, the door of the box was kicked open; The two groups of people inside and outside the door looked at each other, and they were all stunned; Only the little guy who looked down on people with dog eyes hid behind a fast catcher, pointed at Yang Lao's dart head and chirped:

"Lord Wei, look, it's this old coffin! You said that he was a poor dart, and his shot was an official ingot of ten taels of gold, which is definitely not a good way! ”

In fact, it's no wonder that this little guy is in trouble, and the gold ingot is a bit eye-catching.

Three days ago, Yang Lao Dart of the Sanshan Dart Bureau took over a "business" from the Governor's Mansion of the Great Wilderness City. A group of thirteen of them, their master and apprentice, trekked through mountains and rivers through the Zhongshan Road, which was thousands of miles away from the red land and the smoke of the beacon fire, and successfully escorted Guo Xing, a prisoner of the imperial court, and secretly escorted him to Song Hanqing, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. And Xingping Emperor Yan Qinghong, after getting the news, approved a reward of one hundred taels of gold on the spot, which is enough for the expenses of the entire Sanshan Dart Bureau for about ten years!

And Yang Lao Dart was secretly squeezed by this young man for a few words, so he took out a gold ingot to press the cabinet, saving him more words; As everyone knows, although gold and silver are both hard currencies, their scarcity is not the same. And coupled with the recent wars in Huayu Continent and the exchange price of gold and silver on the black market, it has almost risen to a terrifying level of 1:15!

Therefore, in the wilderness of Youbei Third Road, gold is equivalent to the royal thing; He is a poor man in the rivers and lakes, and there is no possibility of touching gold at all! Therefore this young man judged that this ingot of gold was not clean, and it was either a traitor or a thief!

Just when this young man was triumphant, from behind the four people holding steel knives, an old man with gray hair and strong spirits flashed. He stood outside the door, with a slight apology in his eyes, and said to Yang Lao Dart with a high arch hand:

"Brother Yang, you and I meet again!"

As soon as the young man heard this opening remark, his heart immediately rose to his throat:

"Lord Wei...... Dare you know each other... It's a small event......"

"It doesn't matter, his gold is a reward from His Majesty, and this official can testify for him."

The little second brother's face was extremely embarrassed, and with his outstanding professionalism, he instantly pulled out a smiling face:

"Oops, oops, the villain really has a pair of dog eyes... I didn't even see that the old dart head was His Majesty's "secret envoy" ......"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the world is not peaceful now, and Fengjing City is also mixed; It is also a good thing for the country and the people that your store can have such vigilance. Presumably Brother Yang ...... You shouldn't blame him, right? ”

Yang Lao Dart looked at Wei Anheng, the prefect of Fengjing City, and his kind face immediately nodded again and again:

"That's nature. At present, the situation is difficult, and in my northern capital, it is inevitable that there will be enemy spies fishing in troubled waters. Lord Wei is a good ruler of the people, and he admires him very much, how can he blame a child? ”

In a few words, the two sides will solve the misunderstanding; The timid shopkeeper of Jiuxianju also came to apologize, and personally sent a jar of good wine - osmanthus brewing.

Guardman Heng sent away all the catchers, and personally poured a glass of wine for Yang Lao's dart:

"Wei someone borrowed flowers to offer Buddha today, and used this cup of wine as a basis to make amends to his brother."

Yang Lao Dart hurriedly got up and got out of the way:

"How dare you, we are all grass people, how can we stand the Lord Qiwei bowing down like this! If you accept this gift, won't you lose your old life? Come on, come on, the old man should pay tribute to Gong Wei ......"

After some politeness, Master Wei glanced at the two young knights with his spare eyes; Yang Lao waved his hand knowingly, pushed the second son back, and waited for Wei Anheng's next words.

"Brother Yang is from the rivers and lakes, so I will have something to say. Although Wei is at the meeting today, there is indeed something that I want to ask Brother Yang's opinion. ”

Who is Lord Guardforce? The patriarchs of the Four Dynasties of the Third Road in Youbei are hardcore ministers who have withstood countless tests of life and death. It can be said that in the entire Youbei Three Roads, in addition to the lame Wan Changning and the Zhongshan King Shen Gui; The courtier who can most reassure the Son of Xingping is this Lord Wei!

What can a reckless old minister of Youbei Sanlu and a reckless man like Yang Lao's darthead discuss?

"How dare you, where does Duke Wei use old age, even if he is told."

"Actually, this is not a private matter of Wei someone, but His Majesty's intention."

As soon as these words came out, Yang Lao Dart's heart settled down. From beginning to end, Emperor Xingping did not summon himself; Even the reward of one hundred taels of gold was sent out of the palace by Song Hanqing, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. And now that Wei Anheng opened his mouth to ask, but did not discuss it with the attitude of passing the decree, he thought that it must be a private matter of the palace.

Frankly speaking, for such a "step of advancement", Yang Lao Dart did not want to participate in it.

"Since it is the will of His Majesty, then it is okay for the Duke of Wei to speak, and the old man should bow to the south and listen to the hadith."

Although the words were very respectful, they did not give any guarantees; If Yan Qinghong is strong, he can shirk his old age and poor health, and he can't take him as an old man!
