Chapter 9: The Trouble in Sangshu

Xiangzhou, also known as Ye County. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info 78,000 households in Kaiyuan and 151 in townships. There are 39,000 yuan and households, and 29 townships. Since the Tang Dynasty, it is mostly called Ye County, which is a state and county north of Bianjing.

From Bianjing to Xiangzhou, even if it is a non-stop journey, it will take at least seven or eight days, and the expedition of the army is even more cumbersome and time-consuming, usually from Bianjing to Xiangzhou within half a month, which can be regarded as the best rapid march.

But looking at the tall city gate not far away, as well as the huge plaque in Xiangzhou on the city gate, Wang Sizong's head has been a little unable to turn, and the picture of His Majesty's trip seems to be still yesterday, and today he actually arrived in Xiangzhou? It's incredible!

"General Jiang? This...."Wang Sizong looked at the plaque not far away, and then turned his head to look at Jiang Yin, who had already sat in the car, and seemed to have a little jaw closed.

Jiang Yin's face was full of relaxation, he lay down on the chair in the saddle, patted the dust on his sleeve, clasped his nose with his little thumb and said, "That's right, General Wang, this is the Tuxing Technique, we have reached the boundary of Xiangzhou." ”

That Wang Sizong's eyes looked at Jiang Yin for a while, if it weren't for Jiang Yin's appearance of sitting there picking his nose was too indecent, Wang Sizong would probably immediately kneel down and bow down.

"O man of God! What a man of God! After being stunned for a long time, Wang Sizong was shocked and said, obviously Jiang Yin's thaumaturgy had completely shocked him.

This time, not only Wang Sizong was shocked, but the army of 3,000 people all stood on the spot with their mouths long, this kind of thaumaturgy that was hundreds of miles away in an instant has always been only heard of in the commentary, I didn't expect to be able to experience it in person today, and the surprise is not enough for outsiders.

The army of 3,000 stood not far from the city tower, without the roar of horses' hooves, nor the exchange of heads and ears, only a dead silence, and the atmosphere was indescribably weird.

In the end, there was movement in the city tower in the distance, and I saw a group of seven or eight soldiers guarding the city running to the front of the army tremblingly, and one of the leaders asked a little tremblingly: "Dare.. Dare to ask.. Who is the military master? The little ones are good to go through! ”

Only then did the army gradually become agitated, and a personal guard at the front of the horse drove his horse forward a few steps and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty personally supervised the imperial history, and the hussar general General Jiang is here, so don't you go and inform you that Zhizhou will come out to greet you!" ”

As soon as they heard that it was the supervising imperial history and the hussar general, those little soldiers had never seen this battle, and immediately ran back to report it.

Not long after, there was also a rush of chickens and dogs jumping in the city, and I saw a wide and fat guy wearing a scarlet official robe and going out of the city gate surrounded by a group of petty officials and soldiers.

"Lord Liu is here!" The crowd didn't know which one shouted, but they saw the chubby crimson official walk out of the crowd, salute the army, and said loudly: "I don't know which one is Lord Yushi?" The lower officials are polite. ”

At this time, a jeep suddenly appeared from behind the army, which immediately startled everyone out of the city, and even the scarlet officials standing in front of them were frightened to take a few steps back, where had they ever seen such a thing as a car, and their eyes were full of fear.

Then I saw two men in imperial uniforms stepping out of the huge black monster.

"Courteous and polite, presumably this is Liu Zhizhou, the prefect of Xiangzhou, right?" Jiang Yin took two steps and saluted the scarlet-robed official.

Liu Zhizhou was also stunned at the moment, the man in front of him looked extremely young, and he didn't even look like he was even a weak crown, when did the Great Song Dynasty have such a number one person, and he was appointed to the position of imperial history at a young age, this Great Song Dynasty has been founded for more than ten years, and he has never heard of it?!

"Liu Zhizhou, long time no see, long time no see." At this time, another person spoke, but the voice sounded very familiar, and the scarlet-robed official turned his head and was immediately overjoyed.

"Brother Xi Ruan!" The scarlet-robed official suddenly turned two steps into one step, hurriedly came up, and sighed with a smile on his face: "Xiangzhou has been separated for two years, but I didn't expect Brother Xi Ruan to be in the middle and high school in the capital!" is still the first of a hundred books, the champion of high school! Xia Guan was still thinking about when he would be able to meet Brother Xi Ruan again, but he didn't expect to get together here today, it was really fate! ”

"Haha, it's indeed fate!" Wang Sizong also seemed very happy, and it was always a joy to meet old friends in a foreign country. "By the way, I forgot to introduce it to Lord Zhizhou, this is a disciple of an overseas divine doctor who was famous in the capital some time ago, Lord Yushi Jiang Yinian, you and I can call him Brother Taixi." Wang Sizong remembered that there was a Jiang Yin next to him, and hurriedly introduced him.

"This is the overseas miracle doctor who shocked the capital? I've heard of a great name for a long time, and I have heard of a great name for a long time! Liu Zhizhou looked Jiang Yin up and down again, and then saluted Jiang Yin with a shocked face.

"Awards, awards." Jiang Yin has never been interested in this kind of officialdom communication, so he raised his hand and said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go to the advanced city to settle the soldiers and horses." ”

Hearing Jiang Yin say this, the fat official in the scarlet robe also nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, yes, the two imperial historians are invited to enter the city, and the lower officials have prepared a banquet in the Zhizhou Mansion to relieve the fatigue of the soldiers!" ”

......

followed Liu Zhizhou into Xiangzhou City, and the army also entered the city one after another to settle down under the arrangement of the small servants, leading the horses and cooking the rice, but it was also in order, and the main generals Jiang Yin and Wang Sizong followed Liu Zhizhou all the way to the Zhizhou Mansion, which was built in the middle of Xiangzhou City, and it was not too far from the city gate.

The Zhizhou Mansion is not big, Liu Zhizhou first asked Jiang Yin and Wang Sizong to wait in the hall of the mansion, and then ordered someone to prepare dinner, and soon a large table of extremely rich meals was served up on a plate.

"Brother Xi Ruan, Brother Taixi, these are some of the famous dishes in Xiangzhou, please use them slowly." Liu Zhizhou did his best to be a landlord and waved his hand proudly.

Jiang Yin was also polite to him, the dishes on these tables did look quite delicate, and after a few bites, the taste was really good, and sure enough, these old capitalists of the landlord class knew how to enjoy life.

"Brother Zhizhou, I don't know if it's easy to serve as Zhizhou in this Xiangzhou? What are the tax rates today? After eating a few bites of food, Wang Sizong began to chatter.

Who knew that it was okay not to ask, but when he asked, Liu Zhizhou immediately became sad and kept sighing.

"Why did Liu Zhizhou sigh?" Jiang Yin, who was eating on the side, had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and wait for his next step.

"You don't know anything." Liu Zhizhou shook his head again and sighed: "Originally, this year's harvest was good, and the public security was also excellent, and the imperial court came to approve it, and my Xiangzhou was enough to be listed in the first class, but..."

"But what?" Wang Sizong was also a little curious.

"But a group of bandits with strong martial arts came to Xingzhou, called the 'Flying Tiger Gang', who ran to the border of my Xiangzhou to spread wild, kidnapped my people, cut off my official road, and robbed those rich businessmen and tycoons, saying that they did everything for the heavens, it was simply evil, and the court was furious, and ordered to hang this gang of bandits within ten days..."

"Isn't that a good thing? Did the bandit Fufa not? Wang Sizong asked with wide eyes.

"Hi... Don't mention it. Liu Zhizhou also seemed to have a dull face, and said in a aggrieved tone: "This gang of bandits is so capable, they have three masters, the big boss is nicknamed Yun Feihu, so that one hand is good at swordsmanship, a few people can not get close, the second boss is nicknamed Xiao Zhuge , full of treacherous schemes, and the deployment of troops is extremely powerful, the third boss is nicknamed Xiashan Tiger, so that a pair of iron hammers, the power is endless, the lower official led the soldiers and horses to suppress the bandits three times in a row, each time they were played by this gang of bandits, and a few officers and soldiers died, it is really shameless to say it...."

Wang Sizong's blood suddenly surged at this moment, and he saw him holding Liu Zhizhou's hand, and said righteously: "How can this be true, under the bright and clear world, how can these bandits be allowed to do trouble!" Our army happened to pass by Xiangzhou, and by the way, we happened to exterminate this gang of bandits for Brother Liu! ”

When Liu Zhizhou heard this, he immediately seemed to have seen a savior, and the words of praise were overflowing, so he almost knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.

Jiang Yin had to sit aside and eat food silently at this time, and his partner was annoying himself again, and it seemed that he had to go out in person.......
