Chapter 134: Yuan County's Order in the Prisoner Car
This is the second time that Supreme Treasure has traveled to Southern Chu, and the first time that he has come to Jingzhou in a real sense. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info came with Xiang Yu before, but he retreated off the cliff halfway, this time he stood at the gate of the city and looked inside, and at a glance he saw the true face of the Jingzhou Imperial Palace standing in the center of Jingzhou City, and couldn't help but sigh, this is less than the famous Forbidden City in the future, but more exquisite in the south.
Supreme Treasure pulled Tao Kan, who was still asleep next to him, and wanted to appreciate the exquisite elegance of the Jingzhou Palace with him, probably Tao Kan had not recovered from the emotions he had just stimulated, and he couldn't wake up no matter how he screamed. The Supreme Treasure had no choice but to carry Tao Kan on his back, approaching the imperial city in the center step by step, and did not forget to look up and appreciate this typical Jingchu cultural characteristic building from time to time.
One of the most interesting details found by Supreme Treasure is that the roof of the palace building is particularly large, and the folded line of the roof slope adopts the method of "lifting and folding". (Note: The height of the roof truss is determined by the depth of the building.) The fold is due to the inconsistent amplitude of the elevation of each purlin of the roof truss. Although the curvature of the roof of the palace is not large, and the corners of the house are not warped, the momentum of robustness and simplicity is strong. This is probably the idea of "the unity of heaven and man" reflected in the early days of ancient people.
The herringbone roof shape not only expands the sense of space in the interior, but also facilitates drainage. In addition to the main palace next to some Gan style buildings, these practices compared with the European flat roofs and northern Chinese cave dwellings of the same period, more "humanized" design and "heaven and man" ideas, Supreme Treasure admired how the Southern Chu builders at that time had such wisdom to build such an excellent building.
A noisy noise on the street interrupted Supreme Treasure's thoughts of admiring the Imperial City, and a large group of people in the distance were slowly walking towards him around a prisoner cart, and with the prisoner cart getting closer and closer, Supreme Treasure also saw clearly that the prisoner standing in the prisoner cart was Yuan Anbang! And the onlookers were crying out for him, and they couldn't stop smashing rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at several officers and soldiers next to them, demanding that they release them.
You must know that when Yuan Anbang was in Jingzhou City, he was as famous as Li Mi and Li Cheng, known as the Southern Chu Shuangqing, and he was both well-known Qing officials, and he did a lot of practical things for the people of Jingzhou when he was in office, and won the hearts of the people. The reason why he went to Guangling to be a county magistrate was that he had also told Lu Xiaoyu before. He is not like Lord Li who has been respected for three dynasties, he was an official in Jingzhou when he was a fledgling and engaged in clean government, and he was too upright, not familiar with the rules of officialdom, and he was indeed very honest and selfless, but he used too tough an attitude to ask other officials to be like him, including the current emperor, so Emperor Xuanhe was angry and demoted him to Guangling as an official.
Now how can the common people not be excited when they see the long-lost Yuan Anbang, and see that he is trapped in a prisoner car this time, and a notice has been posted in the city that Yuan Anbang has committed a heinous crime of fornicating with the traitor Xiong Hui, and he will be sent to Jingzhou Prison and beheaded on a certain day. Seeing such news, the people spontaneously came to protest for Yuan Anbang, and now there are many people protesting, and there are few officers and soldiers escorting Yuan County's order, and the scene was uncontrollable for a while.
Seeing that the prisoner cart was slowly approaching his side, the Supreme Treasure lowered the gauze in front of his hat and withdrew to the side with Tao Kan on his back.
Unexpectedly, the protest of the people shouting injustice was too loud to wake up Tao Kan on the back of the Supreme Treasure, Tao Kan rubbed his eyes, and when he saw the appearance of the man standing in the prisoner car in front of him, he couldn't help but shout, "Father-in-law, I'm here to save you." ”
The Supreme Treasure looked at the surrounding situation and forgot about Tao Kan's existence, and was shocked by his shout and broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the protests of the surrounding people were very noisy, and what Tao Kan had just said was quickly drowned out, and Yuan Xianling in the prisoner car also looked at the front as if he had been drugged, ignoring these people who supported him.
Supreme Treasure was very puzzled in his heart, it stands to reason that Yuan Xianling has always been neither humble nor arrogant, and he will definitely say two words of Top Gun when the people's morale is so high now, instead of being silent like now. But he couldn't take a closer look at Yuan County's appearance, because Tao Kan on his back now saw Yuan County's order in the prisoner car, and his emotions became very excited, and he struggled desperately on his body, eager to get up directly from the back of the Supreme Treasure and jump onto the prisoner car to save Yuan County.
Supreme Treasure sees that it is not a way to go on like this, and it will be troublesome to attract the attention of others for a while. So he squeezed out of the pile of people and carried Tao Kan to a secluded angle before putting him down.
Tao Kan still wanted to run in the direction of the prisoner car, but was pulled back by the Supreme Treasure.
"Brother Xiaoyu, that was my father-in-law Yuan Anbang just now, Xiaohua's father, I can't watch the officers and soldiers take him away, don't stop me, let me save him." Tao Kan said emotionally.
Supreme Treasure grabbed Tao Kan's shoulders and shook them vigorously, "Fifth brother, you sober up, now is not the time to save people." We just arrived in Jingzhou to see what the situation is now, there are only a few officers and soldiers escorting Yuan County Order, have you ever wondered if there will be more officers and soldiers ambushed nearby, ready to catch turtles in an urn for the people who came to save Yuan County Order. If you rush up to save people, we will not fall into their trap. ”
After listening to his words by the Supreme Treasure like this, Tao Kan's excited mood slowly calmed down and became much calmer. They hid in the shadows and quietly checked the direction of the prisoner cart, and found that there were indeed officers and soldiers with large knives sneakily following the prisoner cart at a distance behind.
Supreme Treasure touched Tao Kan again, signaling him to look up, and directly in the several restaurants and teahouses above, several eerie arrows were revealed pointing in the direction of the prisoner car.
Tao Kan saw this, thinking that if he impulsively went up to save people just now, he would immediately be ambushed by the officers and soldiers in ambush from all directions, and when the time came, the people were not saved and even the cool-headed Supreme Treasure was involved, he blamed himself: "It's me who is not good, I was too excited just now, I only saw that the guards were not strict I didn't expect that there were so many ambushes, the eldest brother is reckless, what to do in the future, I will listen to your arrangement." ”
Now that they know that Yuan County's life has been preserved for the time being, Supreme Treasure and Tao Kan are relieved. At the suggestion of the Supreme Treasure, they first found a nearby inn to settle down first, and then prepared to rescue people when the night came.
On the other side, in the warehouse dungeon behind the Deyue Tower, Xiang Yu received news that the people in the dungeon had escaped from prison, and when he saw the empty prison, as well as the two officers and soldiers at the door who did not move at all and the shopkeeper with a strange shape in the prison, he was furious.
"What the hell is going on!"
"Overlord, we saw someone in the torture chamber who left a handwriting on the wall." Xiang Yu said one of his subordinates.
"What was written?"
"Small...... Don't dare to say it, but ask the overlord to see it himself. ”
"Rice bucket!" Xiang Yu slapped the man in the face, walked into the torture room angrily, and when he looked up and saw the two lines of big characters written on the wall, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
