Chapter 219: Evil Rush Meets Perversion
Chapter 219: Evil Rush Meets Perversion
The snow is gone, and the moon is bright and the Qiang flute is between the buildings. Where do plum blossoms fall? The wind blows all night over the mountain!
After crossing the Yellow River from Henan Province in Dugi Province through Dengzhou to the north, Tang Cheng's carriage officially stepped on the ground of Hebei Province, the largest area in the Tang Dynasty, and went all the way north, even through the land of Kyushu, and in less than two and a half months, their trip had already set foot on the ground of Yanzhou.
"Wake up", after the carriage stopped, Tang Cheng shook Zheng Lingyi, who was sleeping on him, and said excitedly: "We have arrived."
"Arrived?" Zheng Lingyi, who opened his eyes, muttered in his mouth and leaned over to open the car window, and suddenly a cold wind with cold air blew in his face.
"Haha, the north wind swept the white grass and folded, and the snow will fly in August! It's the middle of October", Tang Cheng stretched out his hand and put down the curtain of the car, he had been sitting in the car these days and was sluggish, and he not only didn't feel cold when he ate the cold wind just now, but he felt suddenly refreshed, and smiled and said that he couldn't wait to get out of the car after helping Zheng Ling tie up the wind that will only be used in the winter in Jiangnan.
The wind is getting bigger and bigger, and this wind is different from that in Jiangnan, with long feet, it drills into places with gaps such as cuffs and necklines. Ji Lingling shuddered, Tang Cheng's brain was completely activated.
After standing still, Tang Cheng made a few movements of stretching his arms and expanding his chest, moving his legs and feet, while curiously looking at everything in front of him.
There are so many Hu people! Although I have seen a lot of Hu people in the process of coming north, those states are still far from this Yu Zhou, and now standing here and sweeping over, those Hu people wearing thick leather clothes and strange hairstyles are even more than Tang people.
"This is the state city? It's worse than the county seat in Gyeonggi Province", Zheng Lingyi looked around after getting out of the car. Very disappointed, "This state city is not only old, but also has a strange smell", she said and wrinkled her nose slightly.
The city of Yanzhou is not big, and it is indeed very dilapidated when you look at it, and the houses you see in front of you are all relatively low, and the kind of high-rise buildings in the south of the Yangtze River can not be seen as far as the eye can see, these houses are basically built with bluestone and thick rammed earth. Looking extremely thick, the city does not adopt the common square structure in the Central Plains, but the houses of each family are quite messy and crowded together, which makes the small alleys outside the main road narrow and narrow, looking black and mushy.
As far as the eye can see, there are big animals such as donkeys and horses, and the feces of those donkeys and horses are excreted on the side of the road without anyone taking care of them. That's a real death.
came with enthusiasm, but after getting out of the car, what he saw was the 'messy' scene in front of him, Tang Cheng couldn't help frowning, the state city is already like this, that Longmen County......
Imagination is always beautiful. Reality is always cruel!
Zheng Lingyi's gaze was withdrawn from the Hu man who was bare on the top of his head and only had a ring of hair in his ears, and then glanced at the pigtailed Hu man who passed by his side with a bad smell, and asked with a light smile: "Tang Cheng." What do you think? Can you still be happy? ”。
Tang Cheng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "Originally, I was a little cold, but your question stimulated me, the more broken this place is, the better, why don't I come and do it?" His laughter attracted passers-by to come and see, and Tang Cheng didn't care, "Okay." The time has come".
This sentence stunned Zheng Lingyi, "When is the time?" ”。
"It's time to complain in disappointment and frustration, since you are here, you can't always complain, complaining is not a problem, but it is to block yourself", Tang Cheng waved his hand and said: "Go, go to the accommodation."
Looking at Tang Cheng, who was striding forward to the inn, Zheng Lingyi smiled and followed.
The furnishings in this inn are also incomparable with those in Jiangnan. The so-called upper room is just cleaner. The furnishings are really simple, and the only advantage is that it is sturdy.
I took a good bath with hot water. After eating another hot meal, Tang Cheng "touched" his stomach and stood up energetically, "Come and go, change clothes."
Hearing the voice, without waiting for Laifu to make a move, Zheng Lingyi had already stood up first and went to the inner suite of the upper room, and after a while, he walked out holding a blue official robe.
The blue "color" official robe is embroidered with a mountain shape, and there is a sixteen-character inscription on it, "Virtue and politics are clear, the job order is peaceful, prudent and loyal, and Rong Jin bows to the family", and the new official uniform is really suitable for Tang Cheng, who is tall and long, and then with a new **** boots, wearing a Ji Shan crown, and so Zheng Lingyi put the little copper turtle into a fish bag and tied it to his waist, Tang Cheng has swept away the fatigue of the journey for days, and turned into a heroic young county commander.
"Ling Yi, you rest in the inn, I'll go back after I go to see the assassin Shi", Tang Cheng picked up the official documents and was about to leave, after looking at Laifu who got up and followed, he stopped and sank slightly, and then said: "You stay in the inn, Zheng Wu will go with me", after speaking, he didn't wait for Laifu to say anything, he had already stepped out of the room first.
Like other buildings in the city, the Yanzhou Prefecture Ya was thick and dilapidated, but after Tang Cheng arrived, he heard that the Assassin Shi was not in the Ya, and he did not delay at the moment, turned around and followed the guidance of the Door Governor to the Niu Thorn Shi Mansion.
The history of the Yanzhou Niu Thorn is discussing things with other drivers in the house, and after taking the famous thorn sent in by the porter, he first glanced at it casually, "Well, what a word", Niu Zude, who was a little interested, opened the name thorn and looked at the title in the lower left corner first.
"Tang Cheng, the new county commander of Longmen", after seeing these eight words, Niu Thorn Shi was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head and said goodbye with a smile: "How long has it been since the former county commander of Longmen, Liu Bingzhou, signed his official position?" This new county order Tang Chengke has arrived, don't drive, it seems that this is another anxious "sex".
"Calculate the time...... Yes, Tang Cheng is afraid that he came all the way", An Beijia smiled when he heard this, "I came in a hurry, but I am afraid that when I go to the ground, I will also go to promote it."
"Let's go. Anyway, his son is just an ornament", after listening to An Beidi's words, Niu Thorn Shi smiled before turning his head to look at the text on the thorn again, and after this look, the smile on his face that had not retreated suddenly froze, "Hey, it's a strange thing."
"My lord?".
"This Tang Cheng turned out to be a new jinshi of the Jinshi Branch", Niu Thorn Shi handed the famous thorn to An Beijia, "Insert such a origin in Longmen County." What exactly does the ministry mean? ”。
"It's weird", An Beijia was also puzzled after seeing the famous thorn, "It's easy to say if this is a miscellaneous Jinshi, Jinshi ...... If it is said that Tang Cheng is not afraid of no one in the court, it is not so easy to be in the middle, if you want to say that there are people in the court, how can they be placed in Longmen County? Weird, weird! ”。
"Longmen is bitterly cold, and it is a place outside the plug. Xu came down to earn qualifications to pave the way for future promotion? ”。
"That's not right," An Bei shook his head after a while, "It's not one or two people who have gone to Benzhou to get qualifications all these years, who hasn't made arrangements for the county administration in the south?" That's enough, Dragongate! It was just outside the Great Wall. It's in the middle of a group of ridiculers again, if there is a mistake, it's too late to regret it", at this point, An Bei drove "touched" the thick beard of the jaw and said in a deep voice: "It's impossible!" ”。
"Makes sense". After standing up and pacing a few steps with his hands behind his back, Niu Tingshi stopped his steps and turned around, "Maybe this Tang Chengzhong Jinshi offended people who shouldn't be offended, so he was assigned here."
"Well, what Lord Jun said is reasonable, but other than that, I really can't think of any other reason", An Beijia nodded and smiled again: "It doesn't matter how he came." Anyway, it's just an ornament, just send him as soon as possible, don't delay us for him."
"Jia Zixing is a stunned donkey temper, and the military affairs of Guangbian are not in a hurry", he said, Niu Thorn Shi casually beckoned a small servant, "Go, bring this Tang County Order in."
Tang Cheng followed the little servant through the front yard of the Thorn Mansion, which occupied a very large area but was poorly arranged, and arrived at the main house of Sanjin. At first glance, I was really stunned when I saw the two people in official clothes in the room.
In the local state capitals outside the three capitals of the Tang Dynasty, only the rank of the assassin is barely enough to qualify for the scarlet. Judging from the costumes alone, the one on the seat in the middle of the seat wearing a scarlet "color" dress must be the history of the Yanzhou Thorn. Tang Cheng has seen a lot of assassination history before, but whether it is Sun Yuanjun or later Yao Rongfu and others, and no matter what their mental "nature" and talent are, they are all gentle and elegant, with a face like a crown of jade, which is also easy to understand, after all, it is very important to be an official in the Tang Dynasty. He really never thought that this Yanzhou Thorn Shi would be such a tyrannical appearance, low, strong, black, and even worse is that he still has a face of horizontal flesh, a god, if he wasn't wearing a crimson official robe, he would simply be a photogenic live bandit who can't be photogenic anymore.
It is surprising that the history of the Tang Dynasty is so respectful, and the official sitting next to him who looks like a different driver is also strange, with deep eyes, a high nose, and a thick and excessively curly beard on the chin.
This is just a flash of thought in the blink of an eye, and it is impossible for Tang Chengzi to do anything to make people hate because of the very different appearances of these two people and their identities.
"Tang Cheng, the new commander of Longmen County, has seen two adults", there were not so many cumbersome etiquette between the superiors and subordinates in the Tang Dynasty, that is, a small county order saw the minister of the political hall and it was just a hand, Tang Cheng saluted and handed over the official document of the official department and the small copper turtle engraved with his name and official position in the fish bag on his waist.
Niu Thorn Shi obviously didn't expect Tang Cheng, a new jinshi, to be so young, and his appearance and demeanor were not bad, and after carefully looking at him, he reached out to take the official document and the bronze turtle, "Jinshi people are called Shilin Huaxuan, and they are ordered by Tang County, and they really live up to their reputation, ah", although he said so, he didn't see any appreciation on his face.
It stands to reason that Shangguan and the newly appointed subordinates met for the first time, so cold that they didn't even let one of them, and he didn't offend him, what does this bull thorn history mean? Because he had too little information, Tang Cheng really couldn't guess anything, but while sitting on the ground and knowing the inside story, An Beijia stroked his beard and laughed silently.
After inspecting the documents of the Ministry of Officials and the Bronze Turtle, Niu Thorn Shi beckoned, and the servant immediately walked in, "You take the Tang County Order to the state government to see the record and join the army, and let him handle the handover of the Tang County Order." At this point, Niu Thorn Shi waved his hand to Tang Cheng, "Well, let's go."
Damn, that's the end of it? Tang Cheng has also been in the yamen at all levels for a long time, what do you not know? Don't say anything else, whenever a new county order arrives under the jurisdiction of Jinzhou, the assassin must have to say a warm greeting. Ask about the hardships of the journey, relatives at home, etc. After that, when the handover is done, at least don't come forward to "operate", and then the assassin will set up a banquet to catch the wind, and during the banquet, you can talk about the local situation and the matters that should be paid attention to after the arrival of the new county commander. If the assassin Shi looks at the new county order again, he will personally send him out of the city gate early the next morning to take up his post.
Even if Niu Thorn Shi Zhen is dissatisfied with him, it doesn't matter if he sends it or not, at least those face-saving procedures have to be walked away even if they are perfunctory, and the sedan chair carries people. This is not only the practical need of Shangguan to encircle the princes under him, but also the customary rules of the official field.
It's good right now, this bull thorn Shi actually sent him away with such a light sentence, and didn't drive in front of Yizhou, whether it was face or lining, he didn't leave him a little bit. Listening to his tone and then looking at his gesture, he was no different from a subordinate servant in his eyes.
Since Tang Cheng joined the army and drove away from Ma Bei after he joined the army in the Jinzhou Mansion, he really has never suffered such a cold face that is not disguised at all, he originally came with enthusiasm. was splashed with such a basin of cold water on the head, and there is no need to say how uncomfortable the feeling is in my heart.
"Wait", Rao is heart is full of fire, Tang Cheng's face "color" still hasn't changed at all, after stopping the subordinate who was about to go out, he said to Niu Thorn Shi again: "The official has not been here for a long time, and he doesn't know anything about Yanzhou and Longmen, but I don't know that Lord Jun can give some instructions."
"You are a Jinshi, you should know the four words of quiet and inaction. After going to the office, everything should be forbearance first, local stability is the first priority, as long as there is no 'chaos', well, that's all, let's go", after reluctantly saying these few words, Niu Thorn Shi waved his hand to Tang Cheng again in a posture that was no different from chasing flies.
"Thank you, sir." After taking a deep breath to stabilize your mood. Tang Cheng arched his hand and turned around, and he didn't have any rudeness from beginning to end.
When Tang Cheng just stopped the person to ask Niu Thorn Shi about the place. An Beijia's originally casually sitting body had already straightened up, and the smile on his face also fell, and at this time, after witnessing Tang Cheng go away, he said in a deep voice: "You can be a high school junior at such a young age, this Tang Cheng should be in high spirits, but then he eats Lord Jun so cold, his face 'color' can not change at all, and his demeanor is not the slightest blame." Lord Jun, this Tang Cheng is resolute and forbearing, it's not simple! ”。
"Since the founding of the country, how many people in this dynasty have been able to enter high school at his age? Hmph, just look at his appearance, most of them are the likes of Zhang Zongchang, the former Lotus Liulang, isn't this what Her Royal Highness the princess likes", after saying this sentence with anger, Niu Tingshi glanced disapprovingly at Tang Cheng who gradually went away from the door of the room, "What kind of perseverance and forbearance, I think he is a soft bone raised by the noble women who are serving in the capital, don't look down on him!" ”。
When he received the famous thorn before, it was nothing, and when he saw that Tang Ben himself was so mean, An Beijia knew where the knot in the heart of the bull thorn was, so he didn't say anything.
"Don't talk about him", Niu Tingshi leaned over to An Beijia with a dark face, "Let's continue to discuss the matter of Jia Zixing of the Guangbian Army."
"What Lord Jun said is not bad, that Jia Zixing is a stubborn donkey temper, I sent someone to discuss with him three times before and after, but he didn't let go of half a sentence, and it was fifty percent to bite to death", speaking of this Jia Zixing, An Beijia is face turned black.
"He thought it was beautiful! From front to back, he didn't care about anything, and he didn't give out a penny, just putting the city gate would cost fifty percent, how could there be such a good thing in the world? Niu Thorn Shi sneered, "Don't pay attention to it for now, let's talk about it later."
"My lord, it's the end of autumn, and autumn is the best time of the year, this ......."
"It doesn't matter, he can't stay up for a long time, don't look at his Guangbian Army is under the jurisdiction of the Youzhou Metropolitan Governor's Office, but since it is stationed on one acre and three points of land in my Yanzhou, there is a time when he asks for my door."
Niu Thorn Shi and An Beijia discussed here, and Tang Cheng had already completed the handover procedures and returned to the inn.
As early as in Jinzhou, Tang Chengcheng had a habit that even if he encountered something unpleasant outside, he would never show it when he went home to face his family, anyway, even if he said it, they couldn't help, and he didn't have to spoil the family's mood because of these things. This was the case when facing Li Yingjun and Lancao before, and now it is the same for Zheng Lingyi.
When Tang Cheng walked outside the door of the main room, he didn't rush to push the door in. First, he raised his hand and rubbed his ugly face, then tried to smile, until the whole face was adjusted to be peaceful and nothing abnormal, and then he reached out and pushed the door and walked in.
"I'm back", seeing him come in, Zheng Lingyi got up and greeted him.
"Pour two cups of hot tea", after Tang Cheng said a word to Laifu, he looked at Zheng Lingyi, who was carefully looking at his face, and said, "What." What's wrong with my face? ”。
"No", seeing Tang Cheng walking towards the bronze mirror while 'touching' his face, Zheng Lingyi couldn't help but smile, "I've seen Niu Yuanjun, he didn't show you the 'color' of his face, right?" ”。
"Huh?" Hearing this, Tang Cheng stopped, "How do you know that his surname is Niu?" ”。
Rifles couldn't sit still and asked for some news. When the concubine wants to find you after hearing about it, it's too late", Zheng Lingyi gently walked in front of Tang Cheng and said softly: "Don't hold back any grievances you have suffered outside, and your heart will be brighter after saying it."
"Hmm", Tang Cheng nodded absentmindedly. Laifu, who walked over to the main tea, asked, "What did you hear?" ”。
After Laifu said this, Tang Cheng understood where the inexplicable cold reception just now came from, the reason was that this bull thorn Shihuo was a pervert, and this person was born in poverty. Since he was a child, he studied hard, but he also really had some real talent to learn, and he was pitiful to his poor family and knew that he was hard to give a place for a township tribute student, but it was a pity that he was full of ambition to take the exam in Chang'an, but it was the first year after the year, and the last one was actually passed by him through the written examination of the Ministry of Rites, but he was deposed in the subsequent interview of the Ministry of Officials, for no other reason, that is, because of his ugliness. He didn't even pass the first level of the four levels of "body, speech, writing, and judgment" in the official test.
After seven years, the price of Chang'an was expensive, and he was a poor family, during which the bitterness of life went without saying, almost to the point of relying on beggars to provide for self-sufficiency. After burning the box full of poetry books, he left Beijing angrily.
Hometown is faceless to go back. He is also a ruthless man, so he ran north alone to this bitter cold and remote Yanzhou. First to make a living by making accounts for people, and then by chance mixed into the state of Yanzhou, in this place where the literature is not prosperous, his talent was quickly displayed, and slowly won the appreciation of the assassin history at the time, and even step by step by the small officials did the record to join the army, and then because of the great contribution in the Tuntian matter, he was about to leave the high promotion of the assassin history to the ministry to protect him a "Zhuo Wei", so that the "officials" from the outside of the flow to the inside, completed the vital leap in life from the official to the official.
Most officials are reluctant to come to this place, even if they have no choice but to come, they don't have the heart to stay for a long time, thanks to this unique environment, the history of hard work has risen rapidly, and finally he miraculously climbed to the high position of the king.
Speaking of his experience is quite similar to Tang Cheng, it is really an inspirational model, but the seven years of Chang'an are too deep, and later he is still often ridiculed by other officials because of his ugly appearance when he goes to the Taoist meeting, so that once he ascends to the position of the first person in the state, he no longer needs to be patient, and the "sex" that has become paranoid has fully exploded, the uglier the longer, the easier it is to get the trust.
After Tang Cheng listened to the original situation, he was really completely speechless, this is really a strange thing in the world, and when he read history in later generations, he also saw that there were ancient officials because they had fox odor, so they relied on the promotion of subordinates who also had fox odor. And the Daoguang Emperor of the Qing Dynasty because of his frugality to the point of stinginess, attracted officials of all sizes to follow the trend and wear patched clothes, so that every time there was a great court meeting, the Jinluan Palace was in tatters, and was ridiculed by the people as a beggar of the Manchu Dynasty. In the past, when Tang Cheng saw these records, he felt unbelievably laughing, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen to him today.
Who the can blame for this appearance? You can't disfigure yourself in order to do what you like, I'll it, Tang Cheng scolded fiercely in his heart. According to his previous experience, no matter what level of yamen he served, he could always have a good relationship with the chief official and the locality, which was also the most important reason why he had a smooth journey in the past few years. But this time there was no hope at all.
The place is such a remote and dilapidated place, and there is such a perverted direct boss, is it true that when he set off from Golden State, he didn't look forward to the good days, so that the evil spirits collided together?
After Laifu finished speaking, Tang Cheng thought silently for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Laifu, from now on, you don't have to follow me anymore, you can use all your skills, the more useful news related to Longmen County and the history of the oxthorn, the better, no matter how much money you spend, I just need the news, the sooner the better", by the way, since you can't change the situation, you have to take precautions first.
Damn, Niu Zud, you old pervert!
