Volume III:

When Yang Qiuchi woke up, he was already on the third pole.

He didn't think about it when he lay on the bed, although the weather was very good today, but after all, it was still terribly cold, Yang Qiuchi was reluctant to warm the quilt, hid in the quilt, only showed his head out, and wanted to sleep back.

In a daze, I heard someone shouting, "Young master, young master!" "Listening to the voice, it seems to be the little maid Yuechan.

If there is nothing to do, Yuechan will not wake herself up, Yang Qiuchi put his head out of the quilt, stretched out his hand to uncover the gauze tent, and poked his head out: "What are you doing?" ”

The little black dog squatted on the side of the bed, heard Yang Qiuchi speak, tilted his head to look at Yang Qiuchi, licked his tongue, and then lay down and continued to sleep.

Yuechan saw Yang Qiuchi poking out his head and squinting and didn't wake up, so she covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Young Master, Huguang Zuobu's political envoy Lord Qian, the punishment envoy Lord Shi, the commander of the envoy Wu, and the Jinyi Wei Qianhu Luo are here to visit. I'm waiting in the living room of the inn. ”

Ah, Yang Qiuchi's sleepiness disappeared, and he got up naked: "Quick, help me get dressed." ”

Yuechan agreed, took the robe that had been warmed by the stove too early, served Yang Qiuchi to put it on, and brought hot water to wash him.

After cleaning up, Yang Qiuchi pushed open the door and went out into the corridor, and Song Yun'er greeted him: "Little lazy worm, are you finally willing to get up?" ”

"Yo, you slept so late last night, how did you get up so early this morning?" Yang Qiuchi was surprised.

"I'm used to it," Song Yun'er smiled slightly and said, "A few adults have been here for a while, let's go." ”

Yang Qiuchi walked quickly to the hall, and the envoy Qian Bu and others hurriedly got up and bowed. Yang Qiuchi returned the salute. After the guests and hosts sat down, Yang Qiuchi said: "A few adults don't have to be so polite in the future, I'm just a small county magistrate now, no matter which one of you is much older than me." ”

Political envoy Qian Bu smiled awkwardly: "My lord, you are the special envoy of the Jinyi Guard, and you are investigating the case by the emperor's holy decree, how can we compare with the adult." Several others chimed in.

Yang Qiuchi said: "I was about to tell you about this matter, I was ordered to inspect Jianwen's Yu Dang case, you are very clear about the relationship between Jianwen and the current emperor, the emperor doesn't want this matter to be clear, so he can only do it secretly." ”

"Last night, the matter was urgent, and I had to expose my identity, but I know who clearly knows my identity, and now I solemnly ask several adults, not only do you keep it secret for me, but also say hello to other people who know when I go back, if someone exposes my identity, I will be severely punished."

Political envoy Qian Bu and others nodded their heads in agreement, saying that they would never dare to divulge the secrets of the special envoy.

Yang Qiuchi's face slowed down and asked, "A few adults came early in the morning, why are you doing it?" ”

The envoy looked out the window and thought, it's almost noon, and it's still early in the morning. With a smile on his face, he arched his hand and said: "Lord Yang, we are here to report to you that the matter of releasing grain for disaster relief has been completed, and all the hungry people have received food, and they have scattered back to their hometowns, in good order, and there is no chaos." Wuchang City has returned to calm. ”

Yang Qiuchi was very happy: "Great! You've worked hard. ”

Political envoy Qian Bu said: "We are nothing, Lord Yang, you are really hard." Thanks to your mastery last night's strategizing and command, he resolved the crisis in our Wuchang City, and also saved the black gauze hats on our heads by the way. ”

Du commanded that Master Wu was the highest official among several people, and he was born as a military general, and he was calm and comfortable in the face of tens of thousands of hungry people in the face of Yang Qiuchi last night, calmly commanded, and finally turned the danger into a disaster, and admired it in his heart, and said with a smile at the moment: "Yes, Lord Yang is young, but he is very old, such a big crisis, I thought it was going to be over this time, but I didn't expect Lord Yang to wave his fingers and settle it, which simply made Wu admire the five bodies to the ground." ”

Of course, Lord Shi was not far behind, and said: "Last night's complicated and complicated situation, Lord Yang saw at a glance that there were ghosts in it, and in one fell swoop exposed the major conspiracy of the political envoy of Quan Bu, the prefect of Tan and Mi Yuan, who colluded inside and outside the country to plot a rebellion. Thumbs up.

Jinyi Wei Luo Qianhu also said: "Yes, there is such a big thing in Wuchang, and my thousand households are still in the dark, what a dereliction of duty, fortunately, Lord Yang took action to resolve the crisis, and followed the vine to find melons, completely foiled this conspiracy, and captured the rebels in one fell swoop." I always follow the adult's side, the adult has a keen eye, and the handling is moderate, which really makes me admire the five bodies. ”

A few of them, you and I couldn't stop praising Yang Qiuchi, praising him as a hero with one hand. Although Yang Qiuchi waved his hand again and again to be humble, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Qian Bu political envoy said: "In order to express their gratitude, the lowly people discussed and prepared a banquet in the Yellow Crane Tower, and wanted to invite the adults to appreciate the light, first, to show the friendship of the landlord, and second, to express the gratitude of our generation. Don't push it off. ”

They boasted for a long time, it turned out that they were going to invite themselves to drink, Yang Qiuchi happened to be hungry, and said with a smile: "Since several adults are so loving, this official is better to obey than respectful." Besides, the Yellow Crane Tower is still a famous spot in our Wuchang, I have admired it for a long time, and it is not happy to be able to drink and sing under the Yellow Crane Tower! ”

Several adults clapped their hands and laughed.

Madame Bai and Bai Sumei were exiles and could not participate in this kind of banquet, so they stayed in the post station with the maid Hui'er and two escort officers.

This post station is in Wuchang City, it is convenient to eat and live, there are officers and soldiers on guard, it is very safe, and there are newly collected little maids to take care of them, and Yang Qiuchi also left the little black dog.

Political envoy Qian Bu and others have prepared several official sedan chairs, Yang Qiuchi, Song Yun'er, and the little maid Yuechan each made one, and Nangong Xiong, Xia Ping and other brocade guards and two masters followed on horseback. The political envoy Qian Bu and others also got on their own official sedan chairs, and the political envoys of the yamen sounded gongs and opened the way in front of them, and they all commanded the soldiers to guard on both sides, and the swords and guns were lined up, shining brightly, and the passers-by avoided them one after another.

The group of people went straight to the Yellow Crane Tower.

This is the first time Yang Qiuchi has sat in an official sedan chair, touching here and looking there, it is very novel. Yang Qiuchi opened a corner of the sedan curtain, looked out, only to see the officers and soldiers trotting on both sides, and the passers-by were hiding far away, so they realized the majesty of the ancient officials, which felt really cool, no wonder the world had to sharpen their heads to be officials.

The Yellow Crane Tower stands majestically on the Snake Mountain in Wuchang. After the team came, the sedan chair stopped in front of the Yellow Crane Tower, Yang Qiuchi got off the sedan chair, raised his eyes, and exclaimed: "What a majestic high-rise building!" ”

The political envoy Qian Bu walked to Yang Qiuchi's side, raised his eyes to look at the Yellow Crane Tower, and introduced: "Lord Yang, this Yellow Crane Tower is a four-sided octagonal shape, which is called 'all directions', shaped like a yellow crane, spreading its wings and ready to fly. ”

Yang Qiuchi praised: "Sure enough, the building is as its name suggests, it is really like a yellow crane flying in the blue sky, majestic and exquisite, full of changing charm and beauty!" ”

At this time, the little maid Yuechan also got off the sedan chair, ran to Yang Qiuchi's side, clapped her hands and admired: "It's really majestic!" ”

"I'm right!" Yang Qiuchi patted Yuechan's shoulder, "Go up to the top of the building and climb high and look into the distance, that's what makes you feel refreshed." ”

Song Yun'er got off the sedan chair and looked up at the Yellow Crane Tower, walked over and said with a grin: "This building is really good, but if you want to be refreshed, it is not enough to climb high, it is best to sit on the eaves on the roof, and the breeze blows, then it can be called refreshed!" ”

Yang Qiuchi looked at the cornices that slanted into the sky, imagining riding on it and shaking, a cold wind blew, and he couldn't help but shiver, and said: "Yun'er, this building is so high, who has the ability to do this, at least I can't do it." Why don't you go up and ride one for me to see? ”

Song Yun'er smiled: "Okay, when you go to the top of the building, I'll ride the eaves to show you!" ”

"No, no! I'm kidding! Yang Qiuchi hurriedly said, "If you want to make a mistake, what can you do!" ”

"What is this, I often go up to play with this kind of high-rise cornice, people who learn martial arts, how can there be fewer cornices and walls."

Yang Qiuchi nervously took her hand: "Yun'er, don't go, okay?" ”

Song Yun'er saw that Yang Qiuchi was really worried about herself, her heart was sweet, she gently broke free of his palm, and smiled: "It's you who tells me to go, and it's you who doesn't go, what do you want me to do." ”

"I just want you to be good." Yang Qiuchi said sincerely.

Song Yun'er blushed, glanced at the political envoy Qian Bu and the others next to her, and whispered to Yang Qiuchi: "Don't say it, it's numb!" ”

Yang Qiuchi smiled.

Political envoy Qian Bu coughed and interjected: "Lord Yang, the lowly people are also as adults think, we have set up the banquet on the top floor of this restaurant, and the idle people have avoided it, so you can enjoy this beautiful scenery with confidence." Let's go upstairs. ”

Yang Qiuchi said: "Okay, go upstairs!" ”

The top floor of this Yellow Crane Tower is very spacious, and a large table of banquets has been placed, with chicken, duck, fish, mountain and sea delicacies, and a full table.

Of course, Yang Qiuchi sat in the first seat, the political envoy of Quan Bu and the commander of the capital made the two officials the largest, one left and one right accompanied Yang Qiuchi, and the other officials sat down in turn, Song Yuner was a bodyguard, and it stands to reason that she could not be seated, but Yang Qiuchi beckoned her to sit down, how dare the officials say a word.

The two masters have already arranged to dine downstairs. The little girl Huanyuechan waited behind Yang Qiuchi, and Nangong Xiong and Xia Ping, two personal guards, patrolled around and were on guard. The other brocade guards are divided into various floors, and the Yellow Crane Tower is surrounded by the personal soldiers of the commander and the political envoy.
