This Lin'an City is the Hangzhou of future generations. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoAt that time, as the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty and the residence of the emperor, it was very lively. The crowd on the street came and went, from the first-class officials to the civilian cloth clothes, from the people of the Great Song Dynasty to the Tibetan monks, all kinds of people and so on. As soon as Chen Tianyu entered the city gate, he felt a majestic imperial atmosphere, which was not comparable to Jiankang City.

He led the rouge horse down the street, only to see that the roads in the city were leading in all directions, and he didn't know where the palace was, so he thought that he had to find someone to ask him clearly. At a glance, he saw an inn in front of him, so he stepped forward and asked the shopkeeper for the way to the palace. The shopkeeper was also enthusiastic and gave him detailed instructions. After inquiring clearly, he thanked the shopkeeper, stepped on the rouge horse, and ran straight in the direction of the palace.

After about half a pillar of incense, he arrived at the gate of the palace. Seeing a team of sergeants guarding the door, he got off his horse, took out a tael of silver from his bosom, stepped forward, secretly stuffed it into the hands of a sergeant, and asked, "Big brother, do you know if there is a Gonggong Feng in the palace?" ”

The sergeant suddenly saw that the young man had stuffed himself with a tael of silver, and immediately smiled and said, "There are several Gonggong Feng in the palace, I don't know which one you are looking for?" ”

When Chen Tianyu heard that there were actually several father-in-law Feng, his brows furrowed, and he said in his heart: "I only knew that father-in-law's surname was Feng, but I forgot to ask his name, how is this good?" Suddenly, he had an idea and said, "It's a young father-in-law, about the same age as me." ”

The sergeant suddenly said: "Oh, it turns out that you are looking for the father-in-law of Feng Tinglong, the current emperor's red man, I don't know what to call this son?" Does Feng Gonggong recognize you? ”

Chen Tianyu said in his heart: "It turns out that he is the emperor's celebrity, no wonder he is young, so he let him come to the eldest brother's barracks to deliver the decree." It's just that since he is a celebrity in front of the emperor, I don't know if he can take a look at the twenty taels of gold I gave last time. Said to the sergeant: "I recognize, my name is Chen ......" I wanted to report my name, but suddenly I thought that Gonggong Feng didn't know his name, so he quickly changed his words: "My name is Chen Ziwei." ”

The sergeant said, "Oh, since you know each other, it's easy to do, I'll go and call him out." ”

Chen Tianyu said hello and nodded in agreement. The sergeant said hello to the leader, turned around and went in to find Grandpa Feng. After a while, he led a father-in-law out, Chen Tianyu took a closer look, and sure enough, it was the father-in-law who came to preach the holy decree last time.

At that moment, he took out two gold ingots from his arms, thought about it, took out three more, took them in his hands and stepped forward, and said with a smile: "Hello Gonggong Feng, I don't know if you still remember it?" ”

That Gonggong Feng had a very good memory, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Remember, aren't you the younger brother of General Chen Ziwei." What's the matter, come to the Sprinkle family for something? ”

Chen Tianyu pulled him, walked to the side and put five gold ingots into his hand, and said, "When I came to find my father-in-law today, I really have two things to ask my father-in-law for help." ”

When Gonggong Feng saw that it was actually five gold ingots, more than double the number last time, he immediately smiled, and he didn't be polite to him, took the gold ingots, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter?" Let's hear it. ”

Chen Tianyu said: "First, two of my eldest brother's subordinates want to get rid of the military and want to ask my father-in-law to help find someone to do it; Second, I recently offended Lord Cheng Xue of Jiangning County and wanted to ask my father-in-law to help dredge it. ”

Feng Gong said fairly: "Oh, it turned out to be these two things. This first thing is easy to do, just talk to someone from the military department; This second thing depends on what the situation is. Tell me, how did you offend Lord Xue? ”

Chen Tianyu then told the cause and effect of the matter.

After hearing this, Gonggong Feng smiled and said: "In this way, this matter is Lord Xue's fault first, and you are reckless and domineering later." Well, both of you are at fault in this matter, and you can't say who is reasonable and who is unreasonable, it's just a confused account. I think if things are big, the Sprinkle family will find an opportunity to say a few words for you in front of the emperor, if it is then Lord Xue will settle the matter, there is no need to say it. ”…,

Chen Tianyu said: "My father-in-law is wise, this is exactly what I mean!" ”

Feng Gong said: "That's good." Then I'll take you to the military department and find someone to cancel the military registration of those two people. ”

Chen Tianyu smiled: "Gonggong Feng, please!" ”

When he arrived at the Ministry of War, Gonggong Feng introduced Chen Tianyu to a squire of the Ministry of War, named Han Chengfu. This matter has been corrupted by the Great Song Dynasty, and it has become the norm for officials at all levels to accept money and do things with others, so when Chen Tianyu gave fifty taels of gold to Han Chengfu, he was also accustomed to it. After collecting the money, things were easy to do, and at that moment someone found the roster, turned to Chen Ziwei's establishment, and soon found Wang Huaizhong and Li Tianyou. Han Chengfu immediately waved a pen, and the military registration of these two people was written off from the roster, and then only after the documents of the military department were transmitted to the barracks, the two people could be permanently removed from the military.

After the matter was done, Chen Tianyu found a restaurant, set up a table, and invited Gonggong Feng, Han Chengfu and other officials who had just participated in the matter to attend and drink. Gonggong Feng was busy with affairs in the palace, so he left after accompanying him for a while. These officials knew that he was the younger brother of Liupincheng and the doctor Chen Ziwei, and they all benefited him to a greater or lesser extent, so they pushed the cup with him during the banquet and talked very happily.

After drinking, Chen Tianyu called a few carriages and sent the officials home, while he rode a rouge horse and returned the same way.

After three days on the road, we returned to the village. found Xue Boyi and told him the results of going to the capital. mentioned the matter of going north to explore in his words, Xue Boyi said: "Chen Gongzi has been running around repeatedly in the past few days, and he must be tired, so it is better to rest for a day or two, and it is not too late to leave." ”

Chen Tianyu was indeed a little tired when he said this, so he said: "Okay, today I will rest and make preparations." We'll set off early tomorrow morning. Xue Boyi nodded yes.

At the moment, the two acted separately, Xue Boyi found clothes and dressed himself as a wealthy businessman; Chen Tianyu and the ten strong men pretended to be entourage. After dressing up, everyone looked at each other, but they also looked decent, and they all laughed.

Early the next morning, the group put on their assault rifles, took dry food, water, water bottles, mirrors and other things, mounted their horses, and headed north.

After crossing the river, Chen Tianyu remembered the last time he met the Mongols, and reminded everyone to be on guard at all times. But this time it was too peaceful, and I went all the way north without encountering the Mongols.

However, there are quite a few refugees encountered along the way, and the further north you go, the more refugees there are. I saw that those refugees were old and young, men and women, but all of them were skinny and thinly dressed, and many of them were still holding a piece of black object in their hands and gnawing on it from time to time.

When those refugees saw Chen Tianyu and his party, they rushed up one after another, and they kept begging, their eyes full of longing. Chen Tianyu looked at the black object in the hands of a refugee, and was immediately surprised, it turned out that what this refugee was holding in his hand was actually a piece of tree bark! Growing up, he'd only seen this happen on TV, so he didn't feel much. At this time, I saw with my own eyes that Fang Jue was miserable in the troubled times, and there was nothing more than this.
