"Childe, are we really going to Kaiyang Chengping like this to be some 'Taishan thief'?"

Riding a horse and following behind Han Yan, Huang Zhong felt a headache when he thought of it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What, do you still want 100,000 soldiers?"

glanced at Huang Zhong, but Han Yan couldn't say it, didn't he want to deal with this errand by himself, wasn't he forced?

"Is there one?"

Hearing Han Yan's rhetorical question, Huang Zhong's eyes immediately widened and he asked.

“…… Yes! ”

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Han Yan replied angrily.

"This ...... Where are the 100,000 soldiers? ”

Huang Zhong didn't hear the unhappiness in Han Yan's tone, and asked in some surprise.

"Humph! In a dream! ”

With a snort, Han Yan expressed his dissatisfaction, and then grabbed the reins.

Le Ma stopped, Han Yan looked at the city wall that appeared in front of him, which was not too high, and couldn't help but feel a little upset. Why did your teacher have to go on this trip by himself? Obviously, it has nothing to do with me.

"Childe? What's wrong? ”

Although he was squeezed by Han Yan's words, Huang Zhong didn't care at all, Lerma stopped beside Han Yan and asked with concern.

"This is ahead...... It's Kaiyang City, right? ”

Pointing to the city in front of him, Han Yan seemed to be asking Huang Zhong beside him, and seemed to be talking to himself.

Under the city gate that is not too high, pedestrians come and go, not to mention how lively it is, but it can be seen that the faces of pedestrians are still relatively calm, and it should be considered stable and peaceful in this Kaiyang City. As for the soldiers guarding the city, they only intercepted the people who entered the city and registered to collect taxes, and the people who went out of the city were only released after checking their identities, and in this regard, these people in Kaiyang City did a relatively good job.

"Childe? Son? Son! ”

shouted three times in a row, and seeing that Han Yan had not paid attention to him, Huang Zhongce immediately stepped forward and leaned towards Han Yan's side.

Han Yan heard the sound, slowly came back to his senses from his contemplation, and when he turned his head, he saw Huang Zhong coming forward, and his body hurriedly dodged to the side, "Han Sheng, what are you trying to do?" ”

"No, Childe! We're just watching, don't we go into the city? ”

Huang Zhong looked at Han Yan helplessly and reminded him out loud.

"Of course we have to enter the city, what are we doing here if we don't enter the city? See the scenery? Glancing at Huang Zhong angrily, Han Yan touched his chin, "It's just, where should I start after I go in?" The teacher just asked me to come, and he didn't reveal any news to me! ”

Xun Jing just told Han Yan that he must come, and he said a lot of various things, but the situation in Kaiyang City was basically not mentioned. Except for the fact that the leader of this Kaiyang City is named Zang Ba, and the people under his command are recruited from Taishan County, Han Yan doesn't know anything about the situation inside. There are a few soldiers in Kaiyang City, and how many generals can be recruited and fought well under Zang Ba, all of which need to have a detailed information, so that Han Yan can start better.

"Forget it, I don't have a clue if I think about it here all the time, so it's better to go into the city first and find a place to live." Han Yan, who was in a state of turmoil, scratched his hair fiercely, turned his head and shouted to Huang Zhong, "Han Sheng, follow me into the city!" ”

"Yes!"

Huang Zhong didn't say much, and when he saw that Han Yan had made a decision, he followed it directly.

The two rode their horses to the vicinity of the city gate, turned over and dismounted, and pulled the reins in their hands, Han Yan was on the left, Huang Zhong was on the right, and walked towards the city.

"Look at them, there is not the slightest worry on their faces, and the environment here is relatively peaceful. Moreover, this city gate is only charged once City Gate tax, which is much better than Luoyang during the reign of the first emperor, I really don't understand what the teacher thinks, why let me come here to deal with these things, what is there to deal with? ”

Han Yan whispered to Huang Zhong as he led the horse forward.

Han Yan and Huang Zhong's horses were on their sides, which meant that the two actually walked together one after the other, and there were horses outside. Because of this, although Han Yan lowered his voice, he didn't care much, so he didn't see the sarcasm on the faces of passers-by who heard his words.

However, Huang Zhong saw a little, pulled Han Yan's sleeve not far in front of him, lowered his voice and reminded: "Childe, the look on the pedestrian's face is a little wrong, it shouldn't be so simple!" ”

"Isn't it that simple? Tell me what's going on. ”

While speaking, Han Yan and Huang Zhong had already arrived at the place where the tax was collected at the gate of Kaiyang City.

"Two people?"

The soldier sitting on the stool in charge of collecting taxes glanced at Han Yan obliquely and asked with a cold expression.

"Yes! Two people! ”

Nodding heavily, Han Yan replied with certainty.

"Hmmm! Two people, two counts money, pay for it! ”

Casually scribbled two strokes on the notebook, and the sergeant stretched out his palm.

"Two counts as money? I mean, you're not mistaken, right? Han Yan looked at the sergeant in front of him in disbelief, gestured with himself and Huang Zhong, and then continued: "The two of us count the money, doesn't that mean that one person counts the money?" How can it be so expensive? Do horses also count as money? ”

"You're coming to Kaiyang City for the first time, right? A person who enters the city here is a money. Horses? This one is free. The sergeant explained impatiently, then stretched his palm forward, "Hurry up and get the money!" ”

"You!"

Looking at the somewhat annoying face in front of him, Han Yan was really a little angry.

It's not a lot of money, it's only one hundred and twenty yuan, even if it's two people like him and Huang Zhong, it's only two hundred and forty yuan, and Han Yan, the son-in-law, can afford it. It's just that this city gate tax has always been thirty yuan, and the world should be such a standard, even if the city gate tax collected twice by the first emperor during his reign will not be so outrageous, you know, a person has a meal in the wine house is almost thirty yuan.

"Childe! Calm down! ”

Seeing that Han Yan wanted to make a move, Huang Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Han Yan and dissuaded him in a deep voice.

"What? Want to get your hands dirty? You don't look at it either! Looking at Han Yan with disdain, the sergeant beckoned to his companions on the side, "These two people have no money, drive them out!" ”

"Wait!" At this time, Han Yan's face was pale, he beckoned to Huang Zhong, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Han Sheng, take the money!" ”

"Isn't that right? With my general Zang here, this Kaiyang City is safe and sound, what is the money? To keep you safe, as long as you have so little money, be content! ”

Putting the money away, the sergeant said a few words and stopped paying attention to Han Yan, turning to look at the people behind him.
