Xia Fengyi looked funny and said: "Husband, why don't we go to Tianzhu Temple to make incense, and by the way, it is very comfortable." ”

"Tianzhu Temple?" Meng Tianchu turned his head to look at the little maid Feiyan who followed behind, and said with a sneer, "Hey, should we go to Tianzhu Temple?" ”

"How do slaves and maids know, the young master and grandma are in charge." Feiyan remembered the scene of the two of them rolling off the cliff, and two faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

Meng Tianchu looked up at the sky and said, "It's almost noon, or don't go to Tianzhu Temple, it's too far, it's too late, I see that there are a few temples near the city that are also cool and quiet, let's just go shopping, how about it?" ”

Xia Fengyi said: "Xianggong said yes, it's so hot this day, I'm afraid it's already hot when we go to Tianzhu Mountain, let's go to the small temple outside the city to enjoy the coolness." For her, the main purpose of this incense is actually to go out for a walk, and she has been stuffy in the yamen, which is very breathless.

Meng Tianchu explained that Murong Yuxue stayed in the study to handle official business, and then took Xia Fengyi and Feiyan to take the Yamen carriage to prepare for departure. As soon as I got out of the yamen, I happened to meet Wang Yi, the head catcher, and Song Xiangyu, the little catcher, these two people took turns to rest today, and they were casually strolling around in casual clothes.

When Meng Tianchu first arrived in Hangzhou, he solved the Yamen mortuary case, and cleared the grievances for Wang Yi and Song Xiangyu, the two of them were so grateful to Meng Tianchu that they were so grateful, and when they saw that Meng Tianchu's family was going out, they inquired with a smile, and learned that they were going out of the city to incense, and the two volunteered to follow the handlebar to protect them.

Meng Tianchu admired Wang Zhutou's straightforward personality very much, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he asked them to replace the original handlebar style, one on each side, and drove the carriage out of the city gate.

This time, I took the incense belt to tour the mountains and rivers, and did not return to Hangzhou until the evening.

When their carriage came to the city gate, Meng Tianchu saw from a distance that there were many people blocking the city gate from a distance, and there was a long queue, and several officers and soldiers were checking and interrogating one by one. Meng Tianchu raised the curtain of the car and said to Wang Zhutou: "Wang Zhutou, you go and see what's going on." ”

Wang Zhutou agreed, stopped the carriage, and stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

When he walked to the city gate, he found that the soldiers guarding the city gate were very arrogant, and the inspection movements were very rude, and some of the common people were pushed to the ground and beaten if they were not obedient. I couldn't help frowning and strolled to a middle-aged scholar. He asked, "Brother Tai, what's wrong with the city gate?" ”

The scholar said in a low voice: "The prefect Ke Qianke's son, Ke Wei, is dead, and the cause of death is unknown, and Lord Ke ordered a card to be set up to investigate it strictly." There is also a guarantee fee, which is said to be returned after the truth is found out in the future. ”

"How can there be such a reason! Set up a card check, but also charge a guarantee fee? ”

"Hmph, it's not like I want to take this opportunity to get more oil and water."

"How much?"

"One hundred wen per person!"

Wang Zhutou thanked the old man, turned around and came to the carriage: "Master, I'm afraid it will take some trouble for us to cross this city gate." ”

Meng Tianchu poked his head out and said strangely: "Oh? Why? ”

"The son of the prefect Lord Ke died, and the cause of death is unknown."

Meng Tianchu frowned and said, "The prefect's son is dead?" Why haven't we heard about it? ”

"It may be that we died after we left the city today, and the prefect ordered a card check. You also have to collect a security deposit. ”

"What to investigate," Meng Tianchu said hatefully, "Since the cause of death is unknown, then before it is even clear whether the person was murdered, he set up a card to arrest the murderer, who to arrest?" It's not an excuse to take advantage of the opportunity! ”

Wang Zhutou hurriedly whispered: "Shh~!" Master, don't dare to say this, this is an order from the prefect. ”

Meng Tianchu nodded: "That's okay, let's go." ”

Wang Zhutou said: "Yes! He jumped into the carriage and shouted, "Get out of the way!" Yamen official business, get out of the way! ”

When the carriage came to the city gate, it was stopped by a thin soldier, who came forward viciously: "Where did you come from and where are you going?" After saying that, he looked at the car with a thief's eyes.

Although Wang Zhutou was a fast catcher, he was helpless when he met a soldier, so he had to swallow his anger and say: "We are from the Yamen of Renhe County." ”

The soldier turned around and gave a look to a soldier beside him, and the man nodded, turned and walked towards the office at the gate of the city. The soldier who remained behind then asked, "From the Yamen?" What about the waist card? ”

Today, Wang Zhutou and Song Xiangyu have taken turns to take a break recently, so they are wearing civilian clothes, touched their arms, and found that they didn't have a waist card, so they smiled and said: "We are really the fast catcher of the Yamen of Renhe County, and it is our ......master who is sitting in the car."

As he was talking, a man who looked like an officer walked out, about the same size as Wang Zhutou, and his figure was also very burly, with a beard on his face, just thirty or forty years old, and a scar of about an inch on his forehead, which was very eye-catching.

When the soldier saw the man coming, he immediately smiled all over his face: "Lord Xiaoqi, these people said that they were from the Yamen of Renhe County, but they couldn't get the waist card." What to do? ”

Hearing this, this officer's position is Xiaoqi, which is equivalent to the squad leader in the current army.

When this little flag heard this, he said with a gloomy face: ", there is no waist card, who knows which way he is a ghost!" Grandma's, all of them will be charged first, take the waist card, and then return it to them! Speaking of which, looking at the canopy, "Who is in the car?" Let's take a look. ”

As he spoke, he walked to the carriage and was about to lift the curtain as soon as he stretched out his hand, when Wang Zhutou grabbed his hand. Wang Zhutou was born with divine power, and he was good at kung fu, and this grasp was not sharp, that Xiaoqi only felt that his body was like being eaten by electricity, and he knew that he had met a master, and his face suddenly changed, but he didn't dare to attack.

The other sergeants also saw the problem and came around with their hands on the hilt of their knives.

Hu Xiaoqi's body was numb for a while, and he hurriedly retreated from the sergeants, and said with a smile to Wang Zhutou: "This brother, this official is acting on orders, and he must be inspected when he enters and leaves the city. Thank you for your understanding. ”

Meng Tianchu said in the carport: "It's okay, Wang Zhutou, let him see, they are also acting on orders, let's not embarrass them." ”

Wang Yi didn't dare to go too far, and slowly let go of Hu Xiaoqi's wrist,

Hu Xiaoqi rubbed his numb arm, stepped forward, carefully picked up a small corner of the carriage curtain and looked in, and saw a young man and two girls sitting inside, the man was of course the sturdy Meng Tianchu, next to him was Xia Fengyi, and next to him was the maid Feiyan.

Hu Xiaoqi saw that Xia Fengyi was beautiful, wearing a blue dress, a big red shawl on the outside, red lips and white teeth, and his eyes suddenly straightened.

It is said that there are beautiful women in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but I have never seen such a stunning woman in this big Hangzhou city. When this little flag's eyes fell on Xia Fengyi's body, it couldn't fall off anymore, and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Xia Fengyi twisted her face to the side in disgust. Feiyan glared at Hu Xiaoqi fiercely.

Wang Zhutou on the handlebar raised his hand to block Hu Xiaoqi's sight, lowered the curtain of the car, and smiled: "In the car are our Yamen criminal master and wife, and the little maid." No one else. ”

"Oh, well, then please hand over the money and go into the city. and when you have gone and brought the cards, I will return the money to you. That Hu Xiaoqipi looked at Wang Zhutou with a smile.

Wang Zhutou didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he took out a small ingot of silver from his arms, about one or two, and threw it to Hu Xiaoqi.

Hu Xiaoqi caught the ingot of silver with both hands, with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but glance at the door curtain of the canopy again, always thinking about Xia Fengyi's stunning appearance. However, I heard that it was the inner family of the master of the yamen, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, and now he took the silver, and when he saw it, he accepted it, and said with a smile: "It's really a bold master!" Hahahaha, okay, brothers, let go! ”

The carriage entered the city, and Meng Tianchu said: "Let's go directly to the 'Xizi Restaurant' for dinner, and then go home, how about it?" ”

Xia Fengyi thought for a while and said: "The concubine heard that there is a restaurant called 'Zhiweiguan' on the shore of the West Lake, and the Hangzhou cuisine is very authentic, why don't we go there, by the way, take a look at the situation of other restaurants, and improve our restaurant." ”

"Okay, let's go and learn from the scriptures!"

The carriage came to the West Lake to "know the taste", Meng Tianchu got off the car first, looked at the inn, there was a wooden sign hanging at the door, and a poem was engraved on it with a fly's head:

There is a taste in the perception of taste,

There is no building outside the building;

Flower port view fish Siyi people,

The wind and lotus of the song courtyard are good news.

Meng Tianchu turned his head to Xia Fengyi and said, "Lady, come and read this poem, it's very interesting!" "Meng Tianchu has heard of "Louwailou" and "Zhiweiguan" before, and I think this restaurant has a long history and should be a century-old store.

Xia Fengyi stepped forward and read it carefully, and smiled slightly: "It's very interesting." At this time, the two shopkeepers of the inn had already greeted them, one settled the carriage in the backyard of the restaurant, and the other led Meng Tianchu and the other four to the lobby.

The business of this restaurant is very good, and the shopkeeper beckoned them to the elegant seat upstairs, first made a pot of good "Ming Qian", put on a hot towel and two snacks, and then beckoned them to order.

Feiyan said to the shopkeeper: "What are your best Hangzhou dishes?" Like some West Lake vinegar fish or something, I quickly made it and served it, let us taste it. ”

"The girl is not from Hangzhou when she listens to the accent, how do you know about our West Lake vinegar fish in Hangzhou?" Xiao Er looked curiously at the big-eyed pretty girl in front of him.

Feiyan snorted and said a little proudly: "What's so strange, it's not a palace secret recipe, who doesn't know." The vinegar fish of West Lake must be made with the kun of West Lake to be delicious. ”

"The girl is right!" After hearing this, the little two nodded frequently.

Meng Tianchu was already so hungry that his stomach was croaking, and he wiped his chin exaggeratedly: "Look, I'm salivating, Xiao Er, you can decide, hurry up, as long as the famous dishes of Hangzhou, especially the famous dishes of West Lake." We talked as we ate. ”

"Okay, then I'll make the decision for a few masters and wives, and order a few of our store's specialties West Lake famous dishes. Wait a minute, and you'll be fine. A few of you will use a snack to cushion the base. With that, he turned around and went out. Meng Tianchu and a few people chatted while eating snacks.

After a while, Xiao Er came back, holding a big tray in his hand, with a few plates of dishes and chopsticks on it, etc., and skillfully put the things in his hands on the hands with his hands and feet, poured wine for everyone, put the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile: "A few masters, these are all the specialties of our Zhiweiguan, you can try them." ”

Meng Tianchu looked at the dishes on the table, they were really rich, the aroma was tangy, and the colors were also very good, there were chickens, fish and shrimp. Stretch out your chopsticks and beckon everyone to eat.

"Master, what do you think it tastes like?" Xiao Er looked at Meng Tianchu's expression and asked cautiously.

"Good! Sure enough, it's the style of a century-old store. Meng Tianchu praised while chewing, "I'm afraid that such an excellent taste will definitely be inherited for a hundred years, if you can't eat it, won't it make us delicious people lose their mouths." ”

When Xiao Er heard this, his face was full of laughter and thanked him again and again.

Xia Fengyi said: "Let's let Xiao Er tell us the origin of this West Lake vinegar fish." Not only do you know how to make each dish, but if you know more about its origin, it will be more popular, and she will not miss such an opportunity.

"Okay, then bother Xiao Er to tell us about it." Meng Tianchu ate the vinegar fish of West Lake, which was tender and refreshing, and it really deserved its reputation.

The little second cleared his throat and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a noise outside, Wang Zhutou stood up, opened the door and looked, suddenly his face was gloomy, and then closed the door.

The voices outside the door were far and near, and the voice of one of them was very familiar.

A shopkeeper's voice said: "Master Hu, the seat you said is really someone already sitting, why don't you arrange another place for you to see?" ”

"Fuck you! Don't you know that the official has always sat in that seat? Who doesn't know that the elegant seat is the best room in your Zhiwei Temple, you can not only see the West Lake, but also look at the girls in the Spring Building next to it, let those people make room for us, hurry up! Then there was a scream, presumably the shopkeeper who greeted the customer and kicked the man.

Meng Tianchu had already heard that the person was the little officer he had met at the city gate just now, and frowned, "How can this person be so domineering!" ”
