Chapter 213: Raiding the House

An imperial city isolates the wind and grass, whether it is a high majesty or an important minister in the imperial city, these have nothing to do with Qiao Ran, who has just entered Chang'an.

At present, they are more concerned about the price of vegetables and meat in the morning market, whether they can buy rice and grain for daily meals at a cost-effective price, and it is serious to fill their stomachs.

The morning market is the world of Hongdou alone, and even Qiao Ran is just a helper in the market, and things like eating, drinking, and Lazar are trivial and boring, but they are necessary every day.

Fresh fish and meat are mixed with fresh vegetables and fruits in the morning market, which is messy but full of fireworks.

Everyone followed behind the red beans with the vegetables, meat, and rice grains they bought, and not far in front of them, the red beans were bargaining with the butcher.

"I buy so much, can't I be cheaper?"

"Cheap can't be cheap!" There was still the smell of flesh and blood mixed with oil on the butcher's body, which really made people stay away, and even Pei Qingqing covered his nose and hid behind Qiao Ran, only glancing at it from time to time.

"I'm dirty, and those pigs smell even worse!" The butcher was unimpressed by the reaction, "When you eat the pork belly, you don't stink." ”

Hongdou was a little hesitant, but still didn't want to give up: "Can't it be cheaper?" ”

"No, no, no." The butcher waved his hand again and again, and said, "If you don't buy it today, it will be more expensive in a few days." ”

"Sit on the ground and start the price!" Hongdou couldn't help but exclaim, "The Son of Heaven also allows you to bargain indiscriminately?" ”

"Who said it was messed up?" The butcher snorted, "How many of the butchers in the ninth lane of the third street in the north of the city are sick?" I just have a pair of hands, and I can't slaughter a pig! What you don't want is what people want. ”

"Forget it then," Red Bean said busily, "I'll take it down!" ”

The butcher stopped muttering, and quickly cut off the meat she wanted, wrapped it in oiled paper, and handed it over.

"Why are the butchers sick?" A voice rang out at that moment.

The butcher glanced up, and saw that it was the girl who was standing on the side, and when she looked at her ten fingers, she knew that she was not a worker, and it was strange that she knew these things in their market!

The butcher didn't have the heart to talk, and said while cutting the meat: "It's just sick, what else can I do?" ”

"Is it just the butcher who is sick?" The girl seemed to be really interested, and continued to ask reluctantly.

"No, it's that it rained and sunny some time ago, maybe I caught a cold, and many people were sick." The butcher looked up at her irritably, "If you don't buy meat, go elsewhere, don't stand in front of my stall, I'm not idle enough to gossip with you." ”

"What a temper!" Hongdou snorted, grabbed Qiao Ran, and said, "Miss, let's go!" It's not okay to ask two sentences, it's so stingy! ”

The butcher rolled his eyelids, not caring to offend one or two customers and continue to sell.

After the group left the morning market and was about to find a place to have breakfast, Pei Qingqing pulled Qiaoran's sleeve and asked her, "What are you asking the butcher to do?" ”

"The ordinary people of Chang'an City live in three streets and nine lanes, and he just said that the butchers are sick, and I am afraid that there is something wrong with the pigs." Qiao Ran didn't hide it from everyone, and said straightly, "Just ask in passing." ”

When she heard the butcher say that it was not only the butcher who was sick, but also that it was raining and sunny for a while, she was relieved.

Probably raised from modern society, she pays special attention to some things. The habit in her bones told her that it was always good to be careful.

After explaining this, she looked down at the shadow on the ground, it was almost hour. Having said that, today is the first time Zhen Shiyuan has been to the court since he was appointed as the secretary of Dali Temple, and I don't know what happened, but there should be nothing wrong!

Thinking that nothing happened, a group of dozens of horsemen and horses passed in front of the morning market, and the pedestrians on the side of the road couldn't help but stop and began to point at those who passed through the morning market.

"It's really unlucky for the official to come to the door early in the morning!"

"Which official has been copied again!"

Qiao Ran casually stopped a pedestrian who was stopping and watching, and asked, "How do you know if someone has been raided or is it an official?" ”

The pedestrians who stopped to look were pointing, and when they heard someone asking themselves, they glanced at her, and saw that it was a girl, although her official words were good, but a few people around her obviously had dialects from other places, and they were from other places at first glance.

"See?" The pedestrian pointed to the people who stopped not far ahead, and said, "You newcomers to Chang'an should recognize the official robes on these people, these are the official robes of the Imperial Forest Army in the palace. In the past few days, I haven't heard of any nobles going to travel, and the Royal Forest Army's trip is either a good thing or a bad thing. This is very common, you will know it after you have been in Chang'an for three or five years. ”

If you stay for a long time, you won't ask such stupid questions.

Is it common for Chang'an officials to have their homes raided? The crowd looked at the passers-by who were talking.

Seeing that he was dressed in a plain robe and carrying a box on his back, he walked closer, and there was still a smell of herbs on his body, which looked like a doctor on call.

Seeing that these outsiders were looking at themselves like this, the pedestrian's steps that wanted to leave couldn't help but stagnate, thought about it, coughed twice, and said: "Your Majesty has been thunderous since he came to power, you didn't see it when he first ascended the throne thirteen years ago, how many officials have been checked, we have long been used to it." ”

Outsiders, they haven't seen much of the world, and it's normal to be surprised when they see this kind of thing.

The pedestrian said a few more words, shook his head and walked away.

"Miss, do you want to go and see?" Seeing Qiao Ran standing motionless, Hongdou asked her cautiously.

Qiao Ran nodded, and the dozens of royal forest troops in the palace stopped in front of a house not far ahead, and there were already many people watching the excitement in front of the house.

When he approached the people, they heard the voices of the people talking.

"I heard that he was a corrupt official, but he didn't move much out of his way!"

Of course, it cannot be said that there are no good things, such as some jade calligraphy and paintings, etc., but there are too many people who copy their homes, especially the people who copy the homes of corrupt officials are still picky.

Corrupt officials? Qiao Ran squeezed into the crowd and watched those royal forest soldiers enter the door and move in and out, those tributes only entered the palace yesterday, and some corrupt officials were copied?

She didn't believe in such coincidences. Maybe it's really as she said to Zhen Shiyuan yesterday, this answer may not be so troublesome, but Your Majesty knows.

……

At the court meeting, His Majesty suddenly attacked, the Imperial Forest Army intervened, and when the court arrested the officials involved in the Yuzhou corruption case, Zhen Shiyuan returned to Beijing for the first time after the court meeting, and he ran into such a major event.

Obviously, however, the officials who had lived in Beijing for a long time calmed down after the initial panic of His Majesty's sudden attack, and stood aside to see that the officials who had been ordered by His Majesty were still arguing with each other.
