Soon Lang Sihu and Yin Hong were tied up and pushed in front of Zhao Guohua. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Glancing at the two of them coldly, Zhao Guohua said, "You two want to die?" Or do you want to live? ”

"To live! To live! Yin Hong hurriedly said on the grass. Lang Sihu snorted and didn't speak

Glancing at him contemptuously, Zhao Guohua said to the grass flying Yin Hong: "If you want to live, just tell who instructed you to intercept the goods outside the army and the matter of the son of Wu going up the mountain to extort a huge ransom, otherwise it will ......."

"I said, I said, here's the thing......" Flying Yin Hong on the grass completely told Yang Song and others about plotting against Wu Jincai.

After listening to the confession of Fei Yin Hong on the grass, Wu Jincai's whole body trembled, his beard trembled, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I also guessed that it was Yang Song, the dog thief, I didn't expect that there were three other people, these dog thieves are too bad, their hearts are too black, the old man really wants to kill them now." ”

Miss Wu heard that Liu An of Qianhu cooperated with Yang Song to plot against her father because she coveted her appearance, and she was angry and blushing and stomping her feet, and she kept scolding "lewd thieves and lewd thieves".

"Governor. I'm here to kill these two thieves. Ma Huan said, drawing the knife and about to do it.

"Wait. I'm still useful. Zhao Guohua stopped him.

"Just let your two dog thieves live a few more days." As he spoke, Ma Huan kicked Yin Hong and the two winged tigers and the four tigers on the grass.

Glancing at Yin Hong on the grass, Zhao Guohua asked: "You said just now, these things were contacted by Yang Song's nephew Xie Yundong, so where did Xie Yundong go later?" ”

"This, I don't know, you, after your people hit the mountain, he disappeared." Yin Hong said.

"We didn't find this kid when we hit the mountain." Niu Huan said.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Guohua whispered to Wu Jincai, Wu Jincai's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he nodded again and again: "Okay!" Yes! Yes! Do as the governor says. ”

Then, Zhao Guohua whispered to Ma Huan again.

Then, Zhao Guohua said: "Niu Huan, you take my name and ask Fuliang County Commander and County Cheng and other officials to Jingdezhen "Jiaweiju" as guests, and tell them that if they don't go, I will lead the troops to wait outside the city, when to agree to come, when to withdraw the troops, and then let the Fuliang County Commander invite Yang Song, Miao Tianran, Du Dana, and Qianhu Liu An to "Jiaweiju", don't say much about the rest." Ma Huan led his troops to wait outside Fuliang County. In addition, ten soldiers from the army were selected to follow. ”

"Yes." Niu Huan raised his hand and gave a military salute, turned around and rode towards the gate of Fuliang County.

The county commander Wu Liangcheng sat still uneasy and trembling and waited in the county government for an hour with a stick of incense, and finally, the official he sent out to inquire about the news came back, and the official reported to him: "My lord, the cavalry from outside is the official army who escorted Wu Jincai's son back, and the official army rescued his son from the bandits. ”

"Oh. So that's what happened. Wu Liangcheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Liangcheng knew about Wu Jincai's son being taken captive by the bandits of Tianzhu Mountain, because Wu Jincai also came to the county government to beg him and asked him to send troops to save Wu Jincai's son Wu Yunzhao, but Wu Liangcheng refused. Wu Liangcheng didn't know how Wu Jincai invited the officials and soldiers, and he didn't want to know these things. In his opinion, more things are better than less, and it is better to be less nosy.

knew that the county seat was fine, so he was relieved to drink and play with his concubine Zhang Meixiang.

I heard that Niu Huan and others were looking for the county order to have something, and seeing that the other party was also an official soldier, and there was no malicious intent, and there were not many people brought into the city, Xu Youfu opened the city gate and let Niu Huan and others enter Fuliang County.

After entering the city, Niu Huan led people to Fuliang County.

Outside the city since ancient times, Fuliang has always been "Wangxian", and its county office grade is five grades, which is 2 grades higher than the general county office (the general county is seven grades). The high political status is due to its important economic position, which is due to the splendid ceramic culture and tea culture in the region. (The three major international trades in ancient China were: porcelain, tea, and silk.) ）

The Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi once sighed in a poem in "Pipa Xing": "Merchants value profit and ignore parting, and Fuliang buys tea in the previous month." According to the New Tang Dynasty Book? The Food Chronicle records: "Fuliang produces 7 million tons of tea per year, and the tax is 150,000 yuan" (this figure is equivalent to three-eighths of the tea tax of the imperial court at that time, which is the first in the country).

In the Tang Dynasty, the ceramics made by Huo Zhongchu and Tao Yu, the porcelain craftsmen of Fuliang County (there was no Jingdezhen at that time, Jingdezhen was called Changnan Town), were exquisite and superb, and they were called fake jade, and were called "Huo kiln porcelain" and "pottery kiln porcelain" by the people of the time. During the Jingde period of Zhenzong in the Song Dynasty (1004 ~ 1007 AD), Emperor Zhenzong gave the local name of the year to the local name because of his appreciation of the porcelain produced in Changnan Town, Fuliang County, and the name of Jingdezhen was given to the local name of the place from then on (this is the first time in history that the emperor gave the name of the year to a local name. Historically, only two cities have been named after the emperor's chronology, the other being Shaoxing in Zhejiang Province, but more than a hundred years later than Jingdezhen). In the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court set up the "Fuliang Porcelain Bureau" in Jingdezhen, which specialized in firing porcelain for the court, creating a history of firing "official kiln porcelain" in Jingdezhen. In the Ming Dynasty, following the Yuan Dynasty system, the "Imperial Ware Factory" was set up in Jingdezhen. In the Qing Dynasty, the "Imperial Kiln Porcelain Factory" was set up in Jingdezhen, which pushed the porcelain industry in Jingdezhen to the extreme!

When they arrived at the gate of the county office, Niu Huan and the others were about to break in, and the official guarding the door saw it, and wanted to stop but didn't dare to stop it, an older official hurriedly walked over and asked politely: "A few military masters, don't you know what's going on with the county government?" ”

Glancing at him, Niu Huan said: "We are going to go to the county government to find the county order, and my general has something to ask me to bring to the county order." ”

"I don't know what it is, can it be conveyed by the villain." The official asked.

Looking at him, Niu Huan said, "My general invited Fuliang County Commander and County Cheng, Chief Bookkeeper and other officials to Jingdezhen "Jiaweiju" as guests, he said that if the county order does not go, he will lead the troops to wait outside the city, when to agree to come, when to withdraw the troops. ”

"This ...... Okay, I'll go in and tell the prefectural magistrate. Hearing these words, the official hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Wu Liangcheng was drinking with his concubine Zhang Meixiang in the back garden, and the official walked in, knelt down and kowtowed, and told Wu Liangcheng what Niu Huan said.

After hearing those words and seeing Zhao Guohua's famous thorn, Wu Liangcheng stood up, threw the cup in his hand on the ground, and said angrily: "It's just a fourth-grade military attaché, and this official won't listen to him, what can he do to me." Please come over to Master Sun. ”

After a while, a scribe-looking man in his fifties, with gray hair, triangular eyes, and a pointed chin, walked in. This person is Wu Liangcheng's master, You Jingjing.

"I've seen Dong Weng." You Jing bowed and bowed.

Pointing at the officer, Wu Liangcheng forcibly suppressed his anger and said, "Yang San, you say what the surname Zhao said to Master You again. ”

Yang San was the official who came in to relay what Niu Huan said about Zhao Guohua.

"Yes. My lord. Yang San said Zhao Guohua's words again that he had just relayed.

Hearing these words, Master You pondered for a while, and then said, "My lord, I think it's better for you to lower your head." ”

"His surname is Zhao, but he is just a fourth-grade military attaché. Why should I bow to him? Wu Liangcheng said.

Bowing down and giving a salute, Master You said: "My lord, my Fuliang's economy depends on ceramics and tea, if you don't agree to his request, he will send troops to block our Fuliang's external transportation arteries, then our county's goods will be troublesome, and then you will beg him, and then he will make some other non-demands, and we will be passive." ”

After thinking about it carefully, Wu Liangcheng said, "Okay, the official will listen to Mr." Come on, prepare the sedan chair. Go to Jingdezhen's "Jiaweiju" and meet the martial artist surnamed Zhao. Master You also went with the official. ”

"Obey your lordship's orders." Master You bowed and said.

More than 20 officials followed the sedan chair of the county commander Wu Liangcheng towards Jingdezhen, and officials such as Cen County Cheng and Qi Zhushu followed on horseback.

When I came to Jingdezhen, I found "Jiaweiju", and saw dozens of sturdy soldiers in black and blue military uniforms standing at the door with waist knives on their shoulders, with their heads held high and their eyes not squinting.

After getting off the sedan chair, Wu Liangcheng saw the soldier standing at the door, so serious and serious that he couldn't help but look at it carefully several times, glanced at each other with Master You, nodded, and then he raised his legs and stepped in.

"Under Zhao Guohua, welcome Wu County Order." Zhao Guohua smiled and greeted him.

Hearing that this person was Zhao Guohua, Wu Liangcheng looked at him carefully and curiously, and saw that he was slender, delicate and elegant, elegant and heroic, with the temperament of a Confucian general, without the rudeness of ordinary military generals, Wu Liangcheng couldn't help but have a good impression of Zhao Guohua, and said with a polite smile: "General Lao Zhao is waiting here, and the subordinate really doesn't dare to be a general." ”

"It doesn't matter. Anyway. Wu County is busy with official business, so it is also appropriate to wait a little longer. Zhao Guohua said with a smile.

The two exchanged politeness, and Zhao Guohua took Wu Liangcheng to the elegant seat on the second floor. Entering the Tianzi Seat, seeing Wu Jincai sitting inside, Wu Jincai saw Wu Liangcheng, hurriedly got up to greet him, bowed down and said: "Xiaomin Wu Jincai to meet Lord Wu, Lord Cen, and Lord Qi"

"The soldiers are polite, I heard that Ling Gongzi was captured by the strongmen of Tianzhu Mountain, and the official was also very worried, and he wanted to send troops to help Ling Gongzi rescue him, but he had no choice but to be strong in Tianzhu Mountain, and Fuliang County was outnumbered, and he was planning to apply for Shangxian to send troops. I don't want my son to come back safely, so the official is here to congratulate the soldiers. Wu Liangcheng stroked his beard and said with a smile.
