Chapter 416: There Are Guests

The State of Qi recalled the soldiers and horses, and soon the States of Lu, Chu, Liang, and Wu all recalled the soldiers and horses.

The ice walls of Ying Tian City were still extremely hard.

Only the main gates of the four sides were opened during the day.

Visitors are subject to strict checks before they can enter or leave. The gates were opened, but not many people were coming.

After the soldiers and horses in the south of Yingtian City retreated, the northern Turks also retreated.

The soldiers and horses of the north and the south withdrew, and the gates of the city were opened. The people of Yingtian, who were living in fright, were also relieved, but in the end, people were afraid. The entire Yingtian City was deserted.

There were no people in the streets and alleys until the beginning of the first ten years.

"Seeing that it's the Lantern Festival, why isn't there anyone?" The man stood at the door of the hall and looked out from time to time, "In previous years, our threshold was broken at this time. There was no one this year. ”

In the Yang family shop of Zhenwei Fang, Yang Zhong looked at the empty shop and sighed, turned around and walked to the backyard.

Compared to the deserted shop, the yard is much warmer.

Two little boys in white brocade robes are chasing after me.

Mrs. Yang wore a royal blue satin cotton skirt and sat in front of the court to bask in the sun.

The Li family also had several young daughters-in-law and girls of the Yang family wearing various dresses, and they placed dried fruits together.

Seeing Yang Zhong walking back, Old Madam Yang asked, "Is there still no one today?" ”

Yang Zhong nodded and sighed, "No." Seeing that it's the Lantern Festival, there is not even a figure in and out of the city. On weekdays, officials on the road are in a hurry to go to the morning court. The tea shop restaurant silk satin village is not all staring at each other, and there is not a single visitor. It's the first time I've encountered such a situation when I open my door to do business....."

"Who's to say it isn't!" Old Madam Yang sighed, "Sixteen years ago, there were still people, but this time there was no one.....

At this time, I saw a guy running over in a hurry: "The shopkeeper, there is a man who claims to be from Qi Guo, saying that he was ordered by the eldest princess to deliver a letter." ”

"Eldest princess?" Old Madam Yang, who was originally half-lying, suddenly stood up, "Quick! Please come in! ”

The messenger was a young man with a black face.

As soon as he came in, he saw Dabao and Xiaobao rushing over: "Is the fairy here?" ”

Tian Fei retreated helplessly: "Didn't come!" I'm just delivering letters! ”

Tian Fei gritted his teeth and deliberately used his strength in the word "sending the letter", just listening to it made people feel that he was not satisfied.

The Li family also hurriedly greeted Tian Fei and saluted: "The Li family has seen Engong. ”

"You know each other?" Yang Zhong smiled and said, "It's really the eldest princess's letter." ”

"Give!" Tian Fei stuffed the letter into Li's hand with a dark face, "The fairy will come at the end of the month." You don't have to reply, just do it. After Tian Fei finished speaking, he raised his feet and ran away.

Mrs. Yang was instructing the maid to pour tea, the tea was fine, and the person who delivered the letter was gone.

"This young man, why is he in such a hurry?"

"He's the fairy's bodyguard!" Dabao raised his head and said seriously, "He's in a hurry to go back and protect the fairy." ”

"Oh....." Old Madam Yang let out a long sigh of relief and glanced at the Li family, "Quick! Open it up and see, what did the fairy let us do? ”

Li hurriedly handed the thick envelope to Old Madam Yang.

Old Madam Yang handed the letter to Yang Zhong again: "You read!" ”

Yang Zhong took the letter and slowly opened it, only to take a look at it and couldn't help but exclaim: "Ah! ”

"What's wrong?" Old Madam Yang hurriedly looked over.

I saw Yang Zhong holding a thick stack of red and glamorous money tickets in his hand.

"110,000 taels of gold!" Yang Zhong quickly counted the money tickets, and then unfolded the letter and read it aloud.

"Old lady, shopkeeper Yang, everyone from the Yang family's shop, and Li's mother and son, have a good New Year. Among them, 10,000 taels of gold were New Year's gifts for everyone, and the old lady looked at the reward. The rest is 10,000 taels of gold, and I have to bother the shopkeeper Yang, go to Xia Jiuye, and ask him to help me set up ten shops with better locations in Yingtian City. I'll make plans when I go to Yingtian. Good work, see you at the end of the month. ”

And at once he took out 110,000 taels of gold.

Among them, 10,000 taels of gold are still New Year's gifts for everyone.

The belief was over, not only Mrs. Yang was stunned, but Yang Zhong didn't know what to say.

For a moment the courtyard was quiet.

"The fairy has given us a New Year's gift." Dabao's cheers broke the silence, "The fairy will come at the end of the month, and you will be able to meet the fairy....."

The people in the courtyard cheered at the letter.

Tian Fei, who was running back and forth on the empty street outside, looked unhappy.

He was upset when Jin Ling asked him to deliver the letter.

He said that he was a bodyguard, so that others could run errands.

But Jin Ling insisted on letting him send it, on the grounds that he was good at light work and knew the Li family's mother and son.

In the end, Gu Hengzi came forward to force Tian Fei over.

Although he was not happy, he still did what Jin Ling explained.

After sending the letter, he ran back and forth according to the few eldest sisters designated by Jin Ling to check.

After reading all the streets that Jin Ling said in one breath, Tian Fei stood at the mouth of an alley with his waist crossed and panted with his mouth open.

This woman is just unreliable.

It's no wonder that this hellish place doesn't lose money when doing business.

It's strange to say, it's only been a few months, how can Ying Tian become no longer popular at all.

It's dusk. After running for most of the day, he didn't see a single person in the exam.

Hell yes!

Tian Fei licked his lips before remembering that he hadn't even drunk saliva all day.

When he looked up and saw a teahouse on his right, Tian Fei raised his leg and stepped in.

The inside of the teahouse is much warmer than the outside.

Next to the door, a person wearing a big red tea on his chest and back was dozing, and there was no one behind the counter.

"Ahem!" Tian Fei coughed before he felt that his throat and eyes were dry and smoking, "Is there anyone?" ”

In the trotting hall, who was dozing, a spirit stood up and came to Tian Fei with his waist bent: "Official, hello, may I ask if you are from the yamen, check the household registration or .....?"

"What an official!" Tian Fei said impatiently, "I'm not!" ”

"Who are you?" The runner suddenly opened his eyes vigilantly, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Huh?" Tian Fei patiently exited the door, and looked at the word tea hanging on the door before coming in and running to the hall, "You guys are not a teahouse?" ”

"yes!" Ran Tang nodded, and looked Tian Fei up and down again, even if he was half-convinced, "Are you here to drink tea?" ”

"Hmm!" Tian Fei sat down on the seat on the side, "Tea!" Just warm it! Die of thirst! ”

After making sure that Tian Fei was really here to drink tea, and there was no one behind him, the people who ran to the hall suddenly came to the spirit and shouted to the inner room with a half-curtain of tea characters: "There is a guest!" Serve tea! ”
