Chapter 420: Lack of People and Speechless Wang Daguan (First Update)
Chapter 420
Came to the gate of the Li Mansion, Li Qingzhao said to take a walk by the way, Wang Yang naturally by Li Qingzhao's thoughts, the two walked side by side on the dim road, although it was already summer, but there will always be a cool breeze at night, blowing people feel refreshed.
The sound of cicadas chirping from nowhere seems to remind people of its hard work. And Wu Qilang followed not far behind with a ghostly face, and next to him were two family members of the Li Mansion, whose expressions also looked gossip and ghostly.
Because there was no curfew in Kaifeng in the Great Song Dynasty, people would come and go throughout the night, and even in the middle of the night, you could find wonton stalls or mash stalls to supply those who like nightlife.
There are even some liquor shops that simply put their stalls on the street at night, a few plates of side dishes, a few pots of small sprinkles, three or five friends, you can blow directly from dark to dawn, and even blow to make you doubt life.
"What's the matter, Brother Wang, you look around, it seems that everything here seems to be very novel."
Wang Yang nodded. "I didn't expect the night in Bianliang to be so lively...... "At the beginning, when he first crossed, he stayed in Yihong Building, so naturally it was rare to have a time to go out.
And by the time he could come and go freely, it was already autumn, and it was cold, so there would naturally not be too many people traveling, and this was the first time Wang Yang had seen the customs of Bianliang on a summer night.
The two chatted and walked slowly, not knowing how far they had walked, until they came to a stone bridge, and Li Qingzhao stopped.
She turned her head and looked at Wang Yang fixedly, for a long time, then she seemed to be a little nervous, and asked with a little expectation. "Brother Wang, you, what you told my eldest brother is true?"
Wang Yang looked at Li Qingzhao in a bit of a daze, and Li Qingzhao couldn't help but smile when he saw Wang Yang's stupid and cute appearance in confusion. "That's it, the content of the quarrel between my eldest brother and you, although I didn't eavesdrop, but ......"
Seeing that Li Qingzhao's face in front of him was getting redder and redder, Wang Yang sniffed, and subconsciously turned his head to look, well, Wu Qilang and the others were ten steps behind, Wang Yang coughed dryly. "What's that, Qingzhao girl, you should know my ......"
"Brother Wang, little sister just wants to know, do you really like me?" Li Qingzhao raised his head, looked at Wang Yang who was close at hand very bravely, and asked softly.
Looking at this innocent and lovely face, Wang Yang grinned, showed a bright smile, and nodded vigorously. "Of course I do."
"Then I understand, Brother Wang, I like you too......" After saying this, Li Qingzhao walked back in a little panic, and walked more than ten steps, as if he felt that it was a little rude for him to just walk away, and turned his head again and smiled at Wang Yangyanran. Brother Wang, goodbye, remember what you said. ”
Looking at Li Qingzhao's figure that disappeared into the crowd, Wang Yang was stunned for a long time, and then he came back to his senses, he really didn't expect that Li Qingzhao would be like this after knowing the answer between himself and his brother.
"Childe, the little lady of the Li family is actually really good......" Wu Qilang appeared beside Wang Yang with a ghostly face, and muttered in a low voice.
"Nonsense, I'm not blind." Wang Yang glared at the very dog-legged appearance of this thing, shook his head helplessly, and continued to walk forward.
"Childe, then why didn't you just hit the snake with the stick, you are a big man, if it is small, hehehe......"
"Hey, hey, hey, fart, huh...... It seems that being handsome is really easy to provoke the favor of women, since this layer of window paper has been punctured, how can it be good now......" Wang Yangtian shamelessly boasted to himself, and couldn't help but start to have a headache How to solve this matter in the future.
Wu Qilang touched his fleshy face, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful, why didn't he have such troubles as a son?
Besides, can this be called a trouble? In this regard, Wu Qilang couldn't help but secretly slander Wang Yang in his heart, it was clear that he was cheap and behaved.
Annoyance, this kind of annoyance makes Wang Yang both complacent and a little uneasy, but what makes Wang Yang relieved is that since Li Qingzhao has learned about the answer between himself and his brother from her family's subordinates, he must also know his own intentions.
Now that they have all reached this point, but Li Qingzhao is still telling herself her mind so frankly, if Wang Yang doesn't understand it again, it's not stupid, then pretend to be stupid.
#####
Early in the morning, Wang Yang sat in the car, swaying towards the palace, today is the penultimate day of the completion of the palace toilet renovation, and another three or five days of effort, all the toilets in the palace have been transformed.
And now, this is just the middle of summer, and it is still far from the deadline given to her by the Queen Mother. However, in addition to being happy, there are bigger hidden worries, which really makes Wang Yang very helpless, that is, after the last toilet is renovated, it is necessary to start the entire toilet renovation project in Bianliang.
And on the Ministry of Industry, it's okay to pay money, but it's not necessary to talk about it, isn't this? The entire number of people who will be the prisoner can give himself is only one hundred and twenty or thirty people, and with these one hundred and twenty or thirty people, how can he be able to do so?
Just when Wang Yang was sighing in the car, the car suddenly stopped. Then he heard the noise in his ears, Wang Yang opened the curtain of the car, and saw hundreds of people of all ages, large and small, dressed in rags, but some of them were wearing the uniforms of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, whether old or weak, all holding a spear in a procession passing through the street in front.
"This, when did our Great Song Dynasty's forbidden army have such a team?" Wang Daguan looked at this army with a bewildered expression, only the old and the young, the old with gray hair, and the small one was only thirteen or fourteen years old.
"Childe, this is not the forbidden army, this is the box army, if there are healthy people, they can be filled into the forbidden army, and the old and weak in the forbidden army can also be filled into the box army." Wu Qilang, this guy can still babble two crooked sentences of classical Chinese, which makes Wang Yang can't help but look at him differently.
Wu Qilang saw Wang Yang's puzzled look, and laughed embarrassedly twice. "The little one originally grew up in the box soldiers, but when he reached adulthood, he wanted to give the little one a tattoo, and the little one didn't want to, so he didn't do this line ......of work and began to come out to mess around."
Wang Yang then thought of a very cheating practice in the Song Dynasty, that is, anyone who enlisted in the army must have tattoos on his face to prevent escape.
And he also has some impressions that in the Northern Song Dynasty, there were four kinds of army establishments, the highest was naturally the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, or it should be said that this was the standard army, the second gear was the Fan soldiers, that is, the minority army, and the second gear was the township soldiers, that is, the young and strong who were engaged in agriculture in peacetime and gathered together for military training during the agricultural slack.
Although the township soldiers in most areas are useless, the township soldiers in the border towns and towns have been fighting against foreign enemies all the year round, and the folk customs in the northern border have always been fierce, so the combat effectiveness of the township soldiers in the border areas is even no less than that of the elite border army.
The so-called box soldiers, and even a considerable number of them are composed of displaced refugees from all over the country, but when there is a disaster and the people are not able to make a living, the state simply makes up a military registration in order to prevent the people from choosing, and is called the box soldiers.
