First, it is impossible for a city to have only about 100 children. At this time, although the Ming Dynasty, after the efforts of Emperor Chongzhen, took advantage of the violation of the service prescribed by Taizu as an opportunity to ask local tyrants to donate money to help students, but after all, only some children could go to school first. In order for all children to be able to go to school, it is not enough to rely on this financial resources alone. And at this time, these children are still boys, and the girls that Emperor Chongzhen expected will also go to school have not been mentioned, so they can only wait for later.

Another point, in Emperor Chongzhen's original will, it was the flag-raising ceremony in the morning, and the national anthem needed to be sung. However, after the decree was sent to the localities, many local officials added that when the flag was collected, they also sang the national anthem in order to welcome the above.

But for now, it seems to be working pretty well. Either because this thing has just been implemented, or because Emperor Chongzhen tried his best to use the disobedience of the service to raise money to allow some Ming children to go to school, so these children are grateful, have a simple heart, and are very serious about completing such a ceremony every day.

"Senior brother, it's going to get dark soon, if we don't leave, it is estimated that the city gate will be closed!" One of Fan Wencheng's subordinates couldn't help but remind Fan Wencheng when he saw that Fan Wencheng seemed to be stunned.

Another subordinate touched his stomach with his hand and reminded in a low voice: "Senior brother, it's time for dinner again!" ”

When I was in Liaodong, I really didn't have anything to eat. But now, there is no shortage of silver, and there are also meals, so if you want to pay off the hungry days in Liaodong, you are really a little sorry for the silver you carry.

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he came back to his senses, and sure enough, his stomach was empty again, and when he looked up, the sun was setting, and it turned out that before he knew it, the day had passed. He remembered his subordinates hiding outside the city, and then looked at the two subordinates who looked at him expectantly, so he nodded and said, "In that case, I will go out of the city first, so that they can rest assured, you go buy some food and take it out of the city." ”

The subordinate who was ordered by him was overjoyed when he heard this, but before he could say anything, he heard Fan Wencheng order again: "Remember, don't go to the same house, and don't go to the one you went to at noon." ”

This was done very cautiously, and his men listened, and although they did not think so, they nodded happily in response.

Fan Wencheng knew that the best way to buy his subordinates' minds at this time was not to give money, but to bring back a meal of rice, so that he could eat enough. That's why he allowed the two men to go down and buy more food. After finishing the order, he frowned, thinking about so many things he had encountered today, and went out while the city gate was not closed.

Two of his men happily headed for the restaurant and moved separately.

"Xiao Er, wrap all these buns for me."

As soon as Xiao Er heard this, the big customer, there were still three steamed buns, and he even wanted them, so he hurriedly went to pack them diligently: "This guest officer, there are thirty of two cages of vegetarian buns; There are fifteen of them in a cage of meat buns, and I pack them all for you, and you count them. ”

When this hand heard that there was a meat bun, his stomach suddenly gurgled, and the saliva in his mouth was about to flow out. However, he was still a little wary, looking down at his clothes, and turning his head to look at the street, which did not seem particularly conspicuous. Thinking so, he reached out and pressed down on his hat. No matter what, no one can see that he is pretending to be a monk anyway, and it doesn't matter if he buys some meat buns.

Thinking so, he let Xiao Er pack all the buns. There were twelve of them, and this steamed bun was not enough to eat, so he went to another shop and swept away the steamed buns and steamed buns that were easy to take away. In the end, I was carrying a big burden on my body, and it was full of delicious food.

Satisfied, carrying such a large lump on his back, when he was about to reach the gate of the city, he found that his accomplices had just returned. But looking at his face, he seemed a little panicked. So, he suddenly became a little nervous in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, you look a little flustered?" ”

When the man heard this, he didn't admit it at all, but replied, "I have, I'm excited." Do you know what's in it on my back? ”

As soon as he heard this, the man was a little curious, and hurriedly asked, "What is it?" Isn't it something to eat? There are a lot of them! ”

At this time, the two of them were all carrying a big burden, and this amount seemed to be enough for them to have a good meal.

When the man spoke, he finally showed a hint of excitement and said, "It's called Hanako chicken, five!" ”

"What? You went against my brother's wishes and went to the noon house again? Although this person was a little surprised, he reacted more often to feel a lot more saliva in his mouth.

"No, no, of course I can't go against my brother's will!" The man listened and hurriedly explained, "The other one said that theirs is the most authentic called Hanako Chicken, and the taste is a must in Yongping Mansion." As long as outsiders come to Yongping Mansion, his family's name Huazi Chicken will definitely not be missed. Since he said so, I couldn't help but buy a few for my senior brother to try! ”

Speaking of this, he also hurriedly added: "Don't worry, the streets are full of people in gray cloth cotton robes like us, who knows that we are monks who want to eat fasting and recite Buddha, right?" ”

When this man heard his accomplice's words, he also nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, I'll tell you, I also have meat buns here, let's go, hurry up and go out and have a good meal." ”

So, the two were excited all the way and walked out of the city talking.

But the two of them didn't notice that just behind them, in the cave of the city gate, there were two people watching their backs from a distance, talking.

One of the thin men asked first: "Big brother, you don't suspect that they are the traitors in Liaodong who the gang leader confessed to arrest, right?" How I look at it, it doesn't look like it at all! ”

"This person really doesn't look like a portrait, and he doesn't have a Liaodong accent. But tell me, a monk, why do you buy so many Hanako chickens? He also argued that he was just born bald! Another brawny man replied with a frown.

When the thin man heard this, he said a little disapprehantly: "So what, even if he is a monk, a wine and meat monk who eats meat and drinks wine in private, we haven't seen it?" ”

Indeed, they have more opportunities to come into contact with wine and meat monks than ordinary people. But the strong man still stared at the two people in the distance and said: "It's been so long since the Jianghu chased and killed the order, and there was no movement at all, and the Fan thief was too cunning." The gang leader said that if we can catch the Fan thief, the Jingshi Axe Gang can help us, and we can also go to Jingshi to gain a foothold in the future, which is a great opportunity. And ......"

Speaking of this, he paused, and said with a glint of hatred in his eyes: "Fan Thief is a Han Chinese, but he is a tiger and has done many bad things for Jianyu, and our Yongping Mansion has suffered a great disaster, and it is not caused by the same number of people who forget their ancestors like Fan Thief." Therefore, if the Axe Gang does not benefit us, will we not be satisfied? ”

Hearing him say this, the thin man immediately nodded vigorously and said, "Big brother is right, I'd rather work harder than let go of anything suspicious." Big brother, don't say anything else, I support you! ”

Here in Yongping Mansion, if it weren't for the timely rescue of the imperial court, I don't know how many people would have died! But even so, the catastrophe basically affected all the families under the rule of Yongping Mansion. The resentment of the Jianyu and the resentment of the thieves is engraved into the bones of almost every Yongping Mansion.

"Okay, then we might have to spend the night in the wilderness tonight!" As the strong man said this, he strode forward without hesitation, walked out of the city gate, and chased after the figure in the distance.

The thin man did not hesitate and followed him out of the city.

The cold wind is howling, and ordinary people want to spend the night in the wilderness, it will die. Even if you are good at begging for a living, if you spend the night in the wilderness in this weather, you will definitely freeze half to death. But these two people still chased out of the city, just for possible clues.

As night fell, in a leeward corner of the wild, in a simple tent, a group of people surrounded Fan Wencheng, but it felt strange. When the old man returned, he sat here silently. If you don't know, you really think that the old man has become a monk and is meditating!

Fan Gou knows his master best, and when he looks at Fan Wencheng's face, he knows that his old man seems to be in trouble, and there are many things he can't figure out. This situation is very rare for him. When I was in Liaodong before, the emperor asked so many questions, and it didn't seem that he was so difficult to live with the master, how did he enter the customs, and the master became like this, what is it that makes the master so puzzled?

To be honest, Fan Gou is really curious, and he can't imagine it.

Eventually, a man entered the tent, holding a cauldron, steaming, and said, "Senior brother, it's time to eat." ”

It is said that it is a meal, but in fact, it is just a little dry food, just boiling water to fill the stomach.

Being disturbed like this, Fan Wencheng came back to his senses, and when he saw his subordinates taking out pig food and preparing to gnaw it, he couldn't help but say: "You don't need to eat these tonight, you will have delicious food when you turn back." ”

As soon as they heard this, these people immediately came back to their senses. That's right, this is in the territory of the Ming Kingdom, there is silver, you can't buy delicious food, and you don't have to eat bran vegetables like in Liaodong!

Thinking so, they immediately recalled that they had eaten white rice and fragrant beef and mutton before, and suddenly, the saliva was flowing, the stomach was screaming, and there was no movement in the tent.

Some of them saw this situation and couldn't help but feel a little dazed when they looked back. Willing to serve a foreign race, only seeking glory and wealth, but what is he pursuing? Is this kind of realm of eating bran vegetables?

At this moment, there was a movement outside, and it was the two who had come back from buying food.

Good guy, put down the two big packages and spread them out in public, full of buns and stuff, and even some mud lumps......

"What is this? Isn't it too heavy for you to come back with some mud on your back? When Fan Gou saw it, he couldn't help but reprimand. With this strength, why don't you carry more white-flour steamed buns back?

Fan Wencheng saw it, but his face sank and said, "How can there be a chicken called Huazi?" ”

The two hurriedly explained, anyway, they said that they did it seamlessly, and no one would doubt it.

Peel back the mud, and the scent suddenly fills the tent.

How long has it been since you've eaten something so delicious? These traitors just looked at and smelled, and they couldn't help but burst into tears. The rumbling of the stomach comes and goes!

Looking at the green light of his subordinates, even the housekeeper, Fan Wencheng knew that he couldn't offend the public at this time, so he didn't blame the two of them anymore, and he first reached out and took a chicken called Huazi and gnawed it first.

When the others saw it, they reached out to grab it. These people among them, no one even said that it would be hot first, so they patronized it and ate it first! If people see it, they will definitely think that this is the reincarnation of a group of starving ghosts!

But while they were eating, suddenly there was movement outside, and there seemed to be shouting and warning. There was still a faint remnant of "Stop, who's who?" "Don't run!"

This movement was like five thunderbolts hitting the heads of these people in the tent. There were even a few people who were swallowed at once, coughed repeatedly, and quickly covered them with their hands, and then turned around and ate the ones sprayed in their hands again.

Fan Wencheng and the others, even if they ate happily, had to interrupt, put down their hands to eat, jumped out, and with the help of the moonlight, they saw that not far away, some people were chasing and some were fleeing.

"No one can escape!" Fan Wencheng had a cold face, gave an order, and then some of his subordinates immediately rode horses to outflank him.

After a period of busyness, these traitors finally caught a person and caught Fan Wencheng in front of him.

This person's body is strong, with the help of the firelight, he saw Fan Wencheng standing at a glance, and after being stunned for a while, his eyes were suddenly full of hatred, and he did not have the slightest consciousness of falling into the hands of the enemy, but shouted and asked: "You are Fan Wencheng's dog thief?" ”

A group of fake monks, and everyone has fast horses, which already made him very suspicious, and he thought of Fan Wencheng in Liaodong. Now in person, and comparing it with the portrait in the Jianghu chase and killing order, he can basically be sure that this person is Fan Wencheng's dog thief!

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he was taken aback, he didn't expect this person to say his name in front of him, he was surprised, he knew that he couldn't deny it, anyway, the person had already fallen into his hands, and there was no need to deny it, so he asked with a calm face: "Are you a Jinyi Wei secret agent?" ”

He thought, this person's identity, nine times out of ten, it must be, otherwise he shouldn't be able to do this.

"Hehe, if I were a secret agent of Jinyiwei, I would have mobilized officers and soldiers to arrest you a long time ago!" The strong man denied it.

Fan Gou on the side listened, obviously didn't believe it, and said with a sneer: "It's not a Jinyi Wei secret agent, can you bite us?" ”

When the strong man heard this, he glanced at him, then turned his head to look around at these people, and then shouted: "A group of people who have forgotten their ancestors, even if we don't have many good people in the rivers and lakes, they are much better than you!" Traitors like you, everyone will be punished. Tell you that sooner or later, you will receive retribution! The people you killed are watching your fate! ”

In the end, he literally roared, and his voice traveled far and wide.

When Fan Wencheng heard this, he frowned, turned around and asked, "Is he alone?" ”
