In the early summer, before I knew it, Ma Jiajun's whole army rectification work began vigorously and quietly. And with this kind of political meaning is very strong, but at the same time that other princes can't feel the context, the rickety figure outside Taishan County is only one hundred and twenty miles away from entering Taishan County.

He walked step by step towards the hill with a pointed wooden stick used to prevent wolves. At this moment, there was a rumbling of wheels crashing against the ground from behind him, and soon a flatbed two-horse carriage for transporting goods ran past him, kicking up a cloud of dust.

He waved at the car, and the coachman tightened the reins and reined in the horse, then turned to the man and shouted, "Hey, what's the matter?" He walked to the side of the car and said a little stiffly: "This brother, can you take me for a while?" ”

"No problem." The coachman patted his chest haughtily, "Where are you going?" ”

"Send me to Zhencheng, thank you." At this time, the single was a very strong Xuzhou accent, which naturally made the coachman hear it. Because judging from the coachman's itinerary, the single determined that he was from Xuzhou.

Perhaps because of the same accent, the coachman immediately became a little close to the single, and when he saw the single's dusty and tired appearance, he immediately said: "It's all about making a living, and we should help each other." I was just going to Xuchang to deliver these porcelain, and I happened to pass by Zhencheng. ”

When the single heard that this person was going to Xuchang, there was no chagrin on his face: an excellent shadow must not go all the way to the destination in one capacity, which he already knew when he joined the shadow for training. At this time, the coachman also moved his buttocks, stretched out his hand and dragged the single onto the car, and then flicked the whip, and the two horses pulled the cart and continued to run forward.

"Brother Tai's surname?" After the single was seated, he took the initiative to ask the name of the coachman. No matter what era, the coachman is the most talkative type of person, the long-distance loneliness and fear, need someone to talk to to solve the problem, this coachman is no exception. The single took the initiative to speak, and just as he was in his heart, the two immediately chatted endlessly.

"My name is Ron, I am from Changlu, the most famous thing we have there is porcelain, and the seafood is also good, if you have a chance, you must try our kelp, if it weren't for the general in Chang'an, oh, now it's King Yong, if he hadn't told those people in Qu County that the grass in the sea can still be eaten, and those people in Qu County have been feeding pigs with those things. How can it be transferred to the Mi family through our Changlu in exchange for five baht dollars? ”

The single knew that this incident was the first time Ma Chao entered Xuzhou, although he was in a hurry, but he accidentally saw that the people of Xuzhou fed the kelp to the pigs, so he said to Mi Jin that the Ma family shop wanted to buy a large number of these things that he did not call 'kelp'. Although the freight is expensive, after the preparation of the already very bold and innovative Kuding in Chang'an, kelp has become a first-class meal for entertaining VIPs in Chang'an City, and the supply exceeds the demand. I remember that Li Zihao also asked Ma Chao why he spent a lot of money to collect these things, and Ma Chao said that people who eat this kind of thing will no longer get the strange disease of a big neck and a thick neck......

However, these are all only in the category of nonsense, and the single only feels that the coachman named Ron is too unfocused, and it took a long time to ask: "Hey, by the way, brother, what's your name?" ”

"Oh, my surname is Kang, my name is Kangxi." The single answer was very simple, although he never knew who the owner of the name Ma Chao had once chanted was. But then, he hurriedly pulled the topic to the scope he wanted to know: "Big brother often runs to Xuchang, he must be very familiar with the customs there, right?" ”

This coachman belongs to a person with a big heart and an unguarded person, and the single song asked this question without arousing his suspicions, but he felt that he had the capital to brag, and said: "It's not familiar, it's really prosperous there, and even our Xiapi in Xuzhou can't be compared." But recently, I heard that the investigation is very strict, as if there is going to be some big change in the court......"

Dong Laxi talked for a while, and the coachman couldn't say any gossip that the single was interested in, so he answered without a word. The days of companionship always pass quickly, and it is not long before the sun is about to set in the evening. The official road was cut off by a steep pass ten miles east of Taishan City, and everyone who passed by had to check at this pass before they could enter the Yanzhou area. It was almost closing, and the soldiers who were in a hurry to be laid off were not angry with the two men who showed up so late.

"Stop, check!"

Cao Bing turned his spear sideways and set it on the wooden horns on both sides of the pass, and shouted at Ron and the single. Ron hurriedly stopped the carriage and took out the name thorn issued by Xuzhou from his bosom and handed it to the soldier, this small piece of silk had his name written on it, his general appearance, place of origin, type of household registration and the seal of the township. The soldier looked at it, found no flaws, and looked up to notice the single standing nearby.

"Are you all in this together?"

"No, he was the one who took me to Zhencheng halfway, and we only met today." Ron's answer made the soldiers frown, they hated people from unknown sources the most, because the superior had an explanation, and he must be strict and meticulous with such people.

The two Cao soldiers walked up to the single, looked at him with suspicion, and shouted, "Hey, your famous thorn." ”

The single pulls out a crumpled thorn from his bosom and hands it to the soldier, and at the same time, inadvertently, it seems to lift some ragged clothes, revealing something that resembles a token. When the soldier saw the thing, his eyes suddenly lit up, and when he opened the name thorn of the single, he found that the thorn was wrapped in more than a dozen five-baht coins. Although there is not much money, it is enough to drink a drink. At that moment, Cao Bing skillfully slid the five-baht coin into his cuffs, and said impatiently to the single: "Let's go, it's another unlucky guy who fled again, it's really unlucky!" ”

The Cao soldiers urged them to hurry over, and the two thanked them and drove through the checkpoint. Behind them, the two heavy black doors slammed shut.

As soon as he had walked a mile, Ron asked, "Brother, what did you show that man?" I've been here more than a dozen times, and I've never seen them so lax. ”

The single smiled, untied the thing and let Ron look at it: "This is the pass printed by our Xuzhou Mi family, I am actually a running guy in a cloth shop in the Mi family, because the last shipment was robbed by Taishan thieves, and I picked up a life by pretending to be dead." I heard that Zhen Cheng was good at running errands, so I wanted to go to Zhen Cheng to try my luck. ”

Ron nodded a little dazedly, and at this time he suddenly remembered that he really didn't ask what this Kangxi was doing along the way. However, when he heard that he was still a partner of the Mi family, he persuaded Kangxi to return to the Mi family, saying that the big owner was very good and treated his subordinates well.

At this time, the carriage also reached a three-way intersection, and the single looked almost over, so he said to Ron: "Big brother, thank you for your kindness, but I have made up my mind, you can send me here, if you can't get along, I hope to meet big brother again, take care." ”

"Okay." Ron didn't force it, he just felt that this person was not as simple as he said. However, this kind of fate that meets is rare to meet again, and he doesn't take it to heart.

Ron whistled and quickly disappeared into the night as he drove the carriage. After the single song saw his figure disappear completely, he suddenly straightened his back and returned to a normal body shape. He quickly ran to a bush by the side of the road and crouched down, and broke the wolf-proof stick, which was hollowed out with a new famous thorn; Next, Shan Song took out the water hyacinth tied to his waist, poured out a brown liquid, and applied it to his face, and the previously dark and burnt skin tone returned to its normal fair and ruddy color.

Then, he took off his tattered clothes and changed into a short-sleeved silk shirt inside the package. After walking out of the woods, he is completely a personable child of a family, even if Qu Liu comes back and sees the single, it is hard to imagine that this person in front of him is what kind of millet guy Ji Kangxi he has just carried.

And when you really enter Taishan City, you almost have to have a curfew. Singlo was glad that the Dragon Gate Inn in the city was open all night, and after the guy brought him some food, he asked casually, "Where did the guests come from?" ”

"Oh, I'm from Chang'an, my name is Qianlong."

Shan Song took the bowl and replied with a smile, at this time, he was already completely with a Chengdu accent. However, the same thing is that he still doesn't know who the owner of this name in Ma Chao's mouth is......
