Volume 1 The Eight Pillars of the Heavenly Pole Chapter 102 Changshan Station
Yan Gaoqing is also a capable official, did not do too shou for a few years, the Changshan is well organized, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the streets are clean and prosperous, it has become the most prosperous city east of Luoyang, the city is full of wine shops, people come and go, there is an Oiran Fang, it is a famous fireworks place in Hebei, there are many Jiangnan women, Chang'an singers, merchants from the south to the north, all admire the go to have a leisurely recreation.
Along the way, the team slept in the open air, passing through the state capital and county, and the princess could live in the post station, and the accompanying soldiers and horses and slaves could only sleep on the streets. Now, after entering Changshan, the Changshan Post Station is the largest post station east of Luoyang, with tall buildings and many rooms, which can accommodate five or six hundred people. All the entourage can live in the post station, avoiding the pain of sleeping in the wind and snow.
Taishou Yan Gaoqing also tried his best to worship, and personally came to the post station to greet the two princesses, and set up a banquet at the post station to entertain the princess and his party. After the banquet, Fan Yangbing was given a hard fee of one or two silver, Fan Yangbing knew the reputation of Oiran Fang, and he had silver in his hand, and he was itchy and unbearable, and he wanted to have a good time, but because of his duties, he didn't dare to act rashly, so he went to beg Ma Sui.
Ma Sui is also open-minded, seeing that these Fan Yang soldiers are also working hard all the way, anyway, when they reach the boundary of Changshan, which is the world of An Lushan, that Yan Gaoqing has always been known for his shrewdness and ability, and he is thoughtful, and he is expected to make no mistakes. He discussed with Yan Gaoqing, the Taishou, and asked Yan Gaoqing to send a capable Changshan Jianshu to replace Fan Yang and be responsible for the guard of the post station. Leaving a few veteran Fan Yangbing to work at the post station, the others took a half-day vacation and went out to have a good time. All Fan Yang soldiers thundered with joy and dispersed in a hurry.
That Changshan was too guarded by Yan Gaoqing very well-behaved, knowing that although Ma Sui was only an eight-grade marching army to join the army, An Lushan was able to entrust the princess with full authority to drive Ma Sui, which was enough to show that Ma Sui's status in the minds of An Lushan's father and son! Therefore, Yan Gaoqing did not dare to pretend to be a five-grade Taishou in front of Ma Sui, and his attitude was very courteous, and in the evening, he set up a banquet in Taishou Mansion to entertain Ma Sui.
The princess's daily life, Qian Enming, has her own internal supervisor in charge of the dots, so Ma Sui doesn't have to worry about it. The only thing I am worried about is the more than 100 craftsmen who accompany the marriage, but Yan Gaoqing has already arranged it, and the craftsmen are all arranged in the northwest side courtyard, 300 Changshan soldiers, three layers inside and three layers outside, and the side courtyard is surrounded by water. After Ma Sui saw it, he was very satisfied, but he was still not very relieved, so he asked the deputy chief manager Bu Yunfei to stay in the side courtyard with Song Wuyang and a few old Fan Yangbing. Only then did he get up and go to the Taishou Mansion for a banquet.
Night falls, the post station is brightly lit, just like day, Changshan Jian pawn three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, three, three, two, two, scattered in various important places. The backyard where the princess lives is even more heavily guarded, in addition to the heavily armed Chang Shan Jian, there are also Fan Yangbing guarding the backyard courtyard wall, Chang Shan Jianjian is only responsible for guarding outside the wall, and is not allowed to approach the courtyard wall.
Bu Yunfei was in the side courtyard, patrolling room by room, and Song Wuyang followed behind him.
Bu Yunfei became the deputy head of the march, but he was actually coerced by Ma Sui. However, along the way, Ma Sui was still very polite to Bu Yunfei, and saw that Bu Yunfei was clever and had insights into everything, and many things had to be discussed with Bu Yunfei.
The clothing, food, housing, transportation, honor guards and guards of the two princesses are all related to the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, and everything must not be sloppy. Escorting the princess and relatives, there are palace supervisors, as well as this group of "dowry" slaves, plus more than 100 Yuyang soldiers who escort them, a total of five or six hundred people, although the prefectures and counties along the way have to provide reception, but it is not easy to arrange the food, clothing, housing and transportation of these many people. Along the way, the two discussed and cooperated with each other, but they were also like a pair of cooperating and tacit chief officers, arranging affairs very properly. After a long time, Ma Sui seemed to be much less wary of Bu Yunfei, and tonight, he went to the Taishou Mansion for a banquet, and handed over all the things in the post station to Bu Yunfei, which was very relieved.
After the horse left, Bu Yunfei didn't dare to slack off, the princess didn't need him to interfere in the affairs there, and his mind was all on this dowry craftsman, arranging for everyone to eat and live, inspect the points, and deal with trivial matters, and finally everyone settled down, and Bu Yunfei had to inspect room by room to ensure that nothing went wrong. After a busy hour, the craftsmen had already fallen asleep, but Bu Yunfei had not eaten dinner yet.
The side courtyard is a quadrangle, there are more than a dozen bungalows, there is a big kang in each house, more than a dozen craftsmen are crowded on the big kang, the charcoal fire is burning under the big kang, it is very hot, the craftsmen sleep side by side, although it is crowded, it can be regarded as heaven and earth compared to the dining style sleeping in the open a few days ago.
The courtyard was very quiet, the craftsmen had already fallen asleep, and the guards knew the rules and were stationed at their respective posts, and did not talk to each other.
Bu Yunfei and Song Wuyang inspected for a week, and there was nothing abnormal, and the two of them yawned and returned to the wing room next to the courtyard gate. This is the room specially reserved by Yan Gaoqing for Bu Yunfei, who is qualified to live in a single room as the deputy head of the marching army.
The two Changshan guards were guarding the door, and when they saw Bu Yunfei, they bowed their heads and saluted: "Lord Bu, Lord Taishou sent a banquet, please use it slowly." ”
Bu Yunfei is now in the official residence of the Nine Rank March, the official is not big, but he is the current official who has entered the Tang Dynasty official sequence, and Yan Gaoqing is also An Lushan's cronies, knowing that Bu Yunfei is the future head of the Fanyang Ordnance Bureau, and he is a celebrity in An Lushan's mind, and his future is limitless. Although the Ordnance Bureau is only a construction agency, but for An Lushan, it is a heavy weight, An Lushan's army is in urgent need of ordnance, and the local Jiedu envoy privately establishes the Ordnance Bureau, which is a taboo in the imperial court, and must be kept strictly confidential, so the position of chief manager, who is not a person he trusts, will never dare to grant it easily. Therefore, Yan Gaoqing was also very attentive to Bu Yunfei, and seeing that Bu Yunfei could not go to the Taishou Mansion for a banquet, he specially arranged a table of banquets for him and sent two slaves to the post station.
Song Wuyang pushed open the door for Bu Yunfei, the room was steaming, a table of eight immortals was full of delicacies, and the two servants in soap clothes next to the table bowed their heads and bowed their bodies, saluting Bu Yunfei.
Bu Yunfei stretched his waist, took out some scattered silver, and said to the two slaves: "Thank you Yan Taishou for your kindness, Bu is very uneasy, please go back, and pay tribute to Yan Taishou!" ”
The two slaves did not move, and a thin slave bowed his head and said, "Yan Taishou instructed the slaves to serve Master Bu for dinner." ”
The slave's voice sounded familiar, and Bu Yunfei looked at it, but it was a wry smile.
The one who spoke turned out to be Fang Ruoxu, and the other, you don't need to look at it to know that it is Baye Gu!
