A few days later, on a dark and windy night, a fire broke out in a private house in Jinyang City, and the fire spread to 33 people. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Fortunately, some soldiers saw it early, rang the bang, and brought in the submarine firefighters to successfully extinguish the fire. In every important state capital, Dashun will have a military patrol shop within 300 steps of each lane. There are five soldiers, night patrols, and official business. He also built a brick tower on a high place, and someone looked upstairs.

As soon as a fire was found, it was immediately reported, and the army owner, Ma Bujun, the three yamen in front of the palace, and the leading troops of Kaifeng Mansion drew water to extinguish it, and did not bother the people to contribute. These soldiers who are responsible for extinguishing the fire are the "fire fighters" of the "fire brigade" and are professionally trained firefighters.

As for the patrol lieutenant, there is a patrol lieutenant in each county, who is in charge of the archers, and abides against rape and violence. At the city level, a "box" is set up to control fireworks and thieves; Under the compartment is placed "patrol shop", at night, patrol police local thieves, fireworks, or noisy and irregular business, that is, with the compartment to detect, solve the state lawsuit. At night, the official mansion and the famous house are hidden on both sides of the street to prevent thieves.

The "military patrol shop" also bears the responsibility of fire alarm, and the shop soldiers look out at the fire tower every day, and as soon as they find a fire, they immediately report it. And those soldiers who are responsible for extinguishing the fire are the "latent fire soldiers" of the "latent fire team". These fire extinguishers have a variety of fire extinguishing equipment, including barrel ropes, flags, axes and saws, lanterns, fire vests and other equipment, all of which are prepared by the lawsuit to pay the officials. In addition to these conventional utensils, there are also ladders, with a large wooden bed, six wheels below, and two ladders standing on it, each more than a foot long, with a rotating shaft in the middle, which can be used for firefighting in high-rise buildings; The pump is made of long bamboo, the bottom is opened, and the water rod is wrapped in cotton wool, and the water can be sprayed out as soon as the water is pumped, just like the spray cylinder of later generations. There is also a water bladder, which is made of cattle and horses and miscellaneous animal skins for bags, storing water for three or four stones, and using a large bamboo with a zhang long bamboo to remove the knots and put it at the mouth of the bag. If the fire burns to the shed, use three or five latent fire soldiers to hold bamboo poles, turn the mouth of the bag, and douse it with water at the source of the fire.

Jinyang City is a big city, so naturally there will be such latent fire soldiers, and it is normal to put out fires if they are discovered early.

After the fire was extinguished, no one found that the palace, which was originally separated by two streets and sealed by the imperial court, actually sneaked into many people. With the help of the sound of the fire submariners fighting the fire, Ping Pong played for a while, and then walked away. The official guarding in front of the palace didn't know when he ran to see the excitement, so he naturally didn't know what was going on in the palace.

A few days later, the internal tone of the Supervision Department said that the supervisors of Jinyang City returned to Beijing to report on their work, and everything was as usual.

What is hidden in it has been burned by a fire on a summer night, and no trace can be found.

In Chang'an City, Lu Chengqi was finally willing to temporarily abandon his busy government affairs, almost all of which were voted by the cabinet, but he accompanied Zhou Zhiruo to play outside the newly built pond and three mountains.

The accompanying attendants, in the pavilion outside the pool, supplemented a layer of bamboo mats, and then put a few square futons on the stone bench, and then retreated, and then the palace maid still ate cakes, fruits and melons, etc., and then also retreated. Lu Chengqi and Zhou Zhiruo were left to play chess and drink tea in the pavilion, and they were also happy.

Sitting on the lap, opposite is the scenery of flowers, next to it is the clear pool water that can see the bottom, the transparent canal water flows down slowly, constantly washing the stones, sand and gravel at the bottom of the water, under the irradiation of the sun, the sand and stone are dyed with a layer of rippling waves, shining like a jewel in general, the golden fish swimming freely, playing back and forth in the pool, and the gem reflects each other, the light is brilliant. There are a few water lilies lying on the surface of the water, and the appearance of budding is very good-looking.

Lu Chengqi admired this beautiful scenery wholeheartedly, and he was very emotional in his heart, it only took a few days for him to become like this, it was really good to be an emperor. As long as you move your mouth, someone will help you do everything.

Zhou Zhiruo chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, it's your turn!" ”

Lu Chengqi rarely "blushes on the old face", who doesn't know that he is a stinky chess basket, it's okay to let him play backgammon, but it's difficult for him to play Go. originally wanted to "pretend to be stupid" to see if she could fish in troubled waters, but Zhou Zhi was really shrewd and impeccable.

"Your Majesty, the concubines have made you ten sons, why can't you win?" Zhou Zhiruo saw that there was no one around, and "mercilessly" exposed the true face of Lu Chengqi's stinky chess.

Lu Chengqi was very embarrassed, smiled, and said: "Don't say that I am the champion, Su Shi, and his chess skills are also average." "This is not what Lu Chengqi said nonsense, Su Shi's articles and poems are well written, but he is really not good at chess. But he is also a chess fan, and he can watch people play chess all day without feeling tired or hungry. Later, he wrote a poem "Watching Chess", which has a sentence "Victory is gratifying, defeat is also happy", and the introduction also wrote "Yu Su does not solve chess, and tastes the white crane view of Lushan alone." Everyone in the view sleeps day and night, and when he hears the sound of chess in the ancient pine flowing water, he is happy and happy", which shows that his level is indeed not good.

Some people wondered, why is Su Shi so smart, but he doesn't know how to play Go? It turns out that Go requires a lot of energy, and it also requires talent, and you can only become a national player from a young age. Su Shizhi is not here, he has not worked Go, and it is normal to be not good at this.

Not to mention Lu Chengqi, except for backgammon and chess, he doesn't know anything about Go, and Zhou Zhiruo taught him a little. Even so, when playing chess, there are many mistakes and omissions, and Zhou Zhiruo often suffers a big defeat and loses face. Zhou Zhiruo likes to play with him again, men can't say no, right? I had to bite the bullet......

"Your Majesty can't win, do you want to cheat?"

Lu Chengqi wanted to play tricks, but he didn't even know how to win chess, otherwise he could follow Zhou Zhiruo like Su Dongpo. That is, Zhou Zhiruo's next step, he is also in the corresponding position. This allusion, called "Dongpo Chess", is indeed a trick.

Although Lu Chengqi knew the allusion, he couldn't even count it as a stinky chess basket, let alone win chess, so he had to push the scales and admit defeat, and changed the topic: "Zitong, this pool cost 100,000 yuan, and it is good-looking, but I don't know if it's worth it......"

The role of one pool and three mountains, Zhou Zhiruo also knows. She sighed faintly and said, "If you can add a son and a half daughter to Your Majesty, don't say 100,000, what if it's a million?" By the way, Your Majesty hasn't named this pool yet, why don't Your Majesty give this pool a name? ”

As soon as Lu Chengqi's mind moved, he called Gao Hao to take the four treasures of the study, and prepared to name the pool. (To be continued.) )
