Xu Xiaole did not serve in Suzhou for a long time, but he caught the two behemoths of the Gu family and the Zhou family. The news that Tong Wanqing was going north through Tan Gong www.biquge.info soon reached the ears of the Gu and Zhou families through Tan Gong, and this matter did not need to be brought forward by the family, and the stewards and big maids below had already sent letters from Sichuan to be sent along the way. Those recipients are all eunuchs, quite influential, saying that they are asking Tong Wanqing to send a letter, but in fact, they are asking for care.

Tong Wanqing was born tall and slender, sitting on a donkey with both legs almost able to drag to the ground. Even if there is a small ill-intentioned person along the way, looking at the size of the person and the seedling knife, you have to weigh your own catties. Especially the big households and the government along the way are doing their best to take care of it, and they all warmly entertain and stay overnight in the face of the Gu and Zhou families, so that Tong Wanqing has a chance to rest and recuperate, and there is no need to worry about the black shops in the rivers and lakes. When leaving, most of them have to send Sichuan capital, and some will even send family servants to escort them.

Although it was the first time for Tong Wanqing to go out, with such care, it was finally smooth sailing, and she didn't encounter any trouble. She met a caravan in Jingcheng again, and finally came to Datong City with the caravan.

Datong city is square, thirteen miles around, the city wall is as high as four zhang and two feet, the wall is covered with bricks, there are four city gates in the southeast, northwest and southeast, each city gate has urn city, suspension bridge, moat. The four gates are built with the city tower again, the corner tower is laid at the four corners, and the strict barrier is the handwriting of Xu Da, the king of the mountains in the Ming Dynasty.

Tong Wanqing entered the city from the Yonghe Gate in the south, lamenting that the north was far more majestic than the south, and was anxious to find someone to inquire. It's a pity that Xu Xiaole's official position is too small, who would know the comings and goings of a nine-grade petty official? Tong Wanqing had no choice but to go to the government office.

However, Datong City is too big, and there are too many yamen. In addition to the government of Datong Prefecture and the county administration of Datong County, there is also the general town office of the chief military officer of Datong, as well as the palace of the acting king. Tong Wanqing didn't know which yamen Xu Xiaole was going to report to, so she had to ask the medical officer yamen again. However, there are medical officers in the general town office, the acting royal mansion, the government office, and the county government, and no one knows if there are new medical officers from other families. In addition, Tong Wanqing dressed up in men's clothes, and the dust covered her appearance, and she spoke a difficult Jiangnan official dialect, and those people in the yamen were too lazy to talk to Tong Wanqing, so they often waved their hands and sent them away.

Tong Wanqing was aggrieved, and seeing that the sky was getting dark, she had to find a place to spend the night. In this important northern border town, the relationship between the Gu and Zhou families was almost exhausted. Fortunately, Tong Wanqing still has a lot of money on her, and she thinks in her heart: if she finds Xiaole, she still has to rent a house for a few days. Instead of looking for it later, it is better to rent a small building now, which will save the cost of the inn.

But Tong Wanqing thought about it again, what if Xiaole had already rented a house here? Isn't it just a waste of money? At that time, the landlord will definitely not be willing to return the rent, and he is a foreigner, so it is better not to cause unnecessary trouble.

When Tong Wanqing thought about it, she was a little hesitant, and she was quite entangled on the road. Seeing that it was getting dark, and there were fewer people on the streets of the city, Tong Wanqing suddenly saw a water sign. The water sign says Resale Premises. She looked up and saw that there was still a signboard hanging on the main entrance: Shangru Inn.

Tong Wanqing, who grew up in the inn since she was a child, walked in unconsciously, and as soon as she stepped into the inn, she smelled a smell of gray rot. In the distance, a withered puppet leaned against the counter, as if contemplating for a long time, and it seemed to ...... It's a living person.

Tong Wanqing choked the knife out of the sheath, and shouted angrily: "He Fangxiao is pretending to be a ghost here!" ”

……

In the first month of the third year of Jingtai, Datong City was frozen for three feet. Two men and a mule walked down from the Jintang Bridge to the west, one of them was born like an iron tower, and on the other shoulder sat a monkey with a white beard and black hair. It's just that the people are weird, the mule is very powerful, and even the common Mongolian horses in Datong can't compare to it.

Such an eye-catching combination is naturally Xu Xiaole and Luo Yun with Pipi and Ink Essence.

The two walked to the gate of the city, and took out the road guide Kanhe and the ministry to take the waist card, proving that they were real Ming officials and Jinyi Wei captains. The old soldier guarding the gate was very sensible, let him go quickly, and called a child to take Xu Xiaole into the city to report to the yamen.

Xu Xiaole has been crazy all the way, if it weren't for the depression of the New Year, he wouldn't want to come to Datong to report so soon. After carefully looking at the yamen he was going to, he confirmed that it was correct: "Yes, I am going to report to the government office." He said and was a little lonely: "It's a serious subject." ”

The prefect of the government medicine is the main department, from the nine products.

Xu Xiaole saw the emperor in Beijing, and his heart was big, thinking about the people who could talk and laugh with the emperor and Shoufu, and suddenly went to the frontier to do a medical department, and the gap in life was too big. However, from another point of view, Tan Gongda is a lot older, and in the end, the training department of county medicine is over. Xu Xiaole is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he is already the highest medical officer in a prefecture, which is enough to make many white-bearded old men feel sad in their hearts.

Xu Xiaole has seen many cities along the way, although Datong is not the largest, but it is definitely the most heavily fortified. As an important town in the north of the Ming Dynasty, the soldiers here are full of blood. Moreover, there are Han and Mongolian people living together, and there are many curly-haired and brown-eyed Hu people on the street, all of whom speak the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty with different accents, which is the scene of the real world empire.

Xu Xiaole followed the young man to the mansion and talked to Luo Yun about the strangeness he saw. Suddenly, there was a thunderclap in my ears: "Xiaole, where are you going!" ”

Before Xu Xiaole's brain could react, his body moved first. I saw him dodge, and the person had already hidden behind the ink essence. Pippi quacked and rushed up to Luo Yun's shoulder. When Luo Yun reacted, he couldn't see Xiaole's figure left and right, and said secretly in his heart: Xiaole dares to play everywhere, and sure enough, he still has something to rely on!

Luo Yun's brain was already slow, and if he was so distracted, his hands and feet would be even slower. Seeing a tall figure rushing towards Xiaole, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop in the middle. He believed that he was tall and big, and the idlers did not dare to collide with him, but he saw a whistle stick stabbing towards him like a snake out of a hole.

This whistle stick is thick and thin, and the stick on the street is a sharp weapon used to carry life and make a living. However, Luo Yun felt that this whistle stick was very familiar, and then looked at the whistle stick, it was the more familiar Sister Wanqing, which frightened him, and he didn't know how to stop it for a while, so he simply squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, even if he was beaten with a stick, he could only admit it.

Xu Xiaole had already poked his head out from behind Mo Jing and called, "My own people!" Don't do it! ”

Tong Wanqing scolded angrily: "You are also a human? "She doesn't beat Luo Yun - after all, it's someone else's child, but she can't borrow him as a stepping stone. Tong Wanqing stepped on Luo Yun's broad shoulders like this, turned the whistle stick into Bai Lian, and flew towards Xu Xiaole.
