Chapter 353: Cai Futai's 'Dismount'

There were people on the streets, and outside the shops on both sides, those guys were sparing no effort to attract pedestrians, but it didn't work. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Most of them are old-fashioned, and at first glance they don't have money to eat and drink, but they pass by in a hurry, ignoring the efforts of those guys.

Of course, in addition to these shops, there are also a large number of small traders and vendors selling along the street, which is also very lively.

In fact, not only in the late Ming Dynasty, but also for ordinary people at any time, the things in the hands of these small traders are more 'good and cheap' than those in the shops.

Therefore, although the street is spacious, it is also a little crowded at the moment, and what makes Xiao Yi and others wonder is that their group has been walking with Wang Hui for a long time, but except for those lazy officers and soldiers guarding the urn city and the small city, they have not seen any team of officers and soldiers patrolling the streets.

Shi Gang pursed his lips and said, "It's really strange, if this is in Ulzhou, you will meet at least four or five teams of street patrol sergeants all the way here." ”

As he spoke, Shi Gang turned his head to Wang Dayong and cast an inquiring expression.

Wang Dayong nodded, laughed, and said, "Lao Shi, why do you think that local officers can think about the people like our generals!" ”

Shi Lu said vaguely: "It seems that this Datong Town needs a general to manage it, and only under the rule of the general can the people really live a good life!" ”

Huang Yang, Liu Tong, and Wang Dayong all nodded without hesitation, while Wang Hui, who was walking in front, was shocked, but he didn't say much.

Shi Gang smiled, scratched his head and continued to walk, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, a huge mansion finally appeared in front of everyone.

To everyone's surprise, the gatekeeper in front of the house was actually wearing blue and white clothes, which were much better than the shabby clothes of the people outside, and it could also be seen that the owner of the house was wealthy.

Several porters were talking about something with a gloomy face, and they were constantly laughing lewdly, and suddenly one of the porters turned their heads and saw Xiao Yi and his party coming.

greeted him, and said lazily: "Who dares to trespass on Lord Cai's mansion, is this a place where you and other poor military families can come!" ”

"Lord Cai?"

Xiao Yi glanced up and saw a few golden characters on the plaque, and he actually arrived at the governor's yamen of Cai Jiahe, the governor of Datong.

All the excitement just now was disturbed by this arrogant and domineering porter, Shi Gang roared: "Niang Xipi, why does everyone in this place look down on people so much, wait for me to punch out this concierge who looks down on people with big teeth!" ”

After that, he rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to fight.

Shi Gang's roar came suddenly, and even the people who hurried by the side of the road were startled, not to mention the gatehouse.

The first reaction when he heard this loud roar was to run backwards, and when he ran a few steps and heard Shi Gang's laughter, he suddenly felt that he couldn't hold his face.

was about to step forward to scold, but he was shocked and looked at Shi Gang carefully from top to bottom, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and he was hesitating.

Wang Dayong stepped forward with a smile and said: "Don't mind this little brother, this brother has such a temperament, he likes to beat people when he has nothing to do, some time ago, he beat away a few horse bandits who went to the village to loot, haha!" ”

Looking at Wang Dayong's smiling appearance, and hearing Wang Dayong's words again, this concierge was actually convinced, why didn't he go down the stairs?

took a few steps back, his words softened a little, and he frowned: "Who the hell are you, this is the mansion of Lord Futai, so you should leave quickly so as not to be beaten to death by a stick." ”

At this time, Wang Hui stepped forward a few steps and said a few words to the porter, and the nervous look on the porter's face suddenly relaxed after hearing it.

"Oh, it turned out to be the general banner of the standard camp, why didn't you say it earlier, Lord Futai has been waiting for you for a long time."

Speaking of which, the rest of the porters gathered around, smiling and not letting go.

After experiencing a lot of this kind of thing, Xiao Yi naturally knew what they were wanting, shook his head secretly, and glanced at Liu Tong.

Liu Tong understood what Xiao Yi meant when he saw Xiao Yi's eyes, and took out a silver ingot that was about ten taels and threw it over.

"Divide it yourself, General, let's go inside."

After seeing this silver ingot, these porters' eyes suddenly lit up, and they didn't care about Xiao Yi and the others at all, in order to compete for the ten taels of silver ingots, they were still like brothers, and now they actually fought hard.

At this time, Wang Hui stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "General Xiao, there will be a farewell along the way, I will leave and return to the camp after this!" ”

Huang Yang asked: "Wang Hui, isn't the standard camp disbanded, what camp else is there to live in?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Hui let out a long sigh, and then forced a smile: "Haha, there is no need to bother the general with such a trivial matter, and it doesn't hurt to live for a few days." ”

Xiao Yichong hugged his fists at Wang Hui and his entourage: "All the way to this trip, I suddenly felt that Han Junmen has a good way of governing the army, and his subordinates are all heroes!" Xiao will not let such a good man fall into the streets, just endure it for a few more days. ”

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Wang Hui glanced at each other in surprise with several general flags and horse soldiers behind him, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Then thank you general, I hope the general has a smooth trip!" ”

"Good!"

……

After entering the gate, there is a wide meadow in front of you, and the center is the lobby, which is the place where the governor of Datong and the civil officials of Datong town and city discuss on weekdays.

At this time, everyone in Datong Town knew that Cai Jiahe was actually the real power, and this governor's yamen had also become a centralized processing and issuing occasion for various decrees in Datong Town.

After entering, it was still covered by a screen.

Xiao Yi carefully looked at the layout of this yamen, and at a glance it was quite Confucian, and a vigorous and upright welcoming pine jumped above the painting.

A pair of sandalwood tables are placed below, and several pine chairs are symmetrically placed on both sides, which Xiao also thinks should be used for weekday deliberations.

Just as he was looking carefully, an old servant who looked like a housekeeper walked slowly and said, "My lord is handling government affairs in the side room, and I am tired of the general for a while." ”

Xiao Yichong smiled at the old servant and said, "It's okay, I'll wait." ”

After hearing Xiao Yi's words, the old servant just nodded and walked out of the lobby, and Shi Gang and the others each found a chair to sit down, watching back and forth.

After a stick of incense, Shi Gang was a little impatient: "Niang Xipi, what do you mean by this birdman, just let us wait here stupidly?" ”

Shi Lu groaned, and his face was a little worried: "This old housekeeper doesn't even serve a cup of tea, and there is no news after he leaves with a word, I'm afraid it's not so simple." ”

As soon as the table was filed, Shi Gang got up and said, "What? This dog official still wants to give us a dismount! ”

Huang Yang laughed: "This is not for sure!" ”

When several people were discussing, Xiao Yi, who had never spoken up, said slowly: "Sit down, just wait, don't let people look down on our martial artists." ”

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, even if Shi Gang was reluctant, he scratched his head and sat back on the chair, as uncomfortable as he was sitting on pins and needles.

Shi Lu, Huang Yang, Wang Dayong, and Liu Tong also nodded one after another, seemingly learning from Xiao Yi to close his eyes and think, but in fact, they were all sleeping.

……

I don't know how long it took, but there were bursts of cicadas outside the hall, and it was already evening.

Suddenly, Xiao Yi opened his eyes and looked out of the hall.

A sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, it was the old servant who had finally come back again, and the old servant looked very surprised, as if he didn't expect Xiao Yi and the others to be here.

As soon as the front foot stepped into the lobby, Xiao Yi's deep voice on the back foot reached his ears.

"I wonder how long it will take for Lord Futai to finish handling government affairs? I could go on and on. ”

The lobby, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly sounded, and Shi Gang and the four of them all jumped up reflexively, looked around vigilantly, and touched their hands to their waists, but they didn't touch anything.

Shi Gang patted his head and said with annoyance: "Mother, I actually fell asleep." ”

As if he suddenly reacted, Shi Gang walked a few steps outside the hall, and said with a shocked face: "It's actually night!?" ”

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, the old servant reacted from surprise and said apologetically: "My family has handled government affairs very deeply, I'm afraid that I don't have time today, so you can come back tomorrow." ”

"What do you say? Just let us wait for a day in vain!? Wang Dayong stepped forward a few steps and said angrily.

Shi Gang and the others were also furious, and surrounded the old servant and shouted angrily, but the old servant only felt a burst of tinnitus, his legs were unconsciously weak, and he was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground on the spot.

Hearing the old servant's words, although it was expected, Xiao Ye still clenched his fists fiercely, and sneered in his heart.

After a long time, Xiao Yi let go of his fists, got up and said lightly: "Since this is the case, the general will no longer bother, and he will leave." ”

Shi Gang and the others saw that Xiao Yi had already walked out of the lobby first, and finally scolded the old servant a few times and chased after him.

At this moment, in a side room on the left side of the lobby, Cai Jiahe slowly opened the wooden window, looked at the direction where Xiao Yi and the others left, and chuckled and was about to close the window.

"Hmph, it seems that he is just a martial artist..."

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the other side, and the words were sonorous and powerful.

"Lord Futai is so for the country, working hard all night, it is a blessing that this Datong Town has Lord Futai in charge, this is what it is today's 'prosperity', Xiao has seen it today, farewell!"

Listening to Xiao Yi's words, the old servant who had just gotten up didn't know why, but Cai Jiahe's face sank.

"Could it be that Xiao Yi knew that he was in a partial room!?"
