Chapter 139: Getting Out of Danger

Jian Feiyang stood at the bow of the boat, thinking about the day he received the secret decree of the Holy Lord and set off to Cheng'an Mansion in the Southeast Province, the Holy Shangwei went out of the palace and personally sent him to the mǎ head of Qingjiang.

It was a grey day, and the clouds were rolling in as if it was going to rain.

Sheng Shang stood with him on the head of mǎ, looked at the mighty Qingjiang River, and whispered to him that the Great Qi Dynasty had five provinces and thirty-six prefectures, and the Southeast Province and Jiangnan Province were the richest. Among them, the Cheng'an Mansion in the southeast province has always been the richest of the rich, and the annual tax paid is the crown of our Great Qi Dynasty. However, in recent years, taxes have been reduced year after year, and last year they were more than halved. If there is a famine in Cheng'an Province in recent years, it is understandable. However, I have not heard Qin Tianjian say that there have been major natural disasters in the Southeast Province in recent years. In addition, Gangnam Province and Yougang Province did not have a large number of displaced people from Southeast Province. ”

Jian Feiyang listened silently for a long time, and asked the Holy Lord, what does the Holy Lord think is there a problem with the Cheng'an Mansion of the Southeast Dao? ”

The saint frowned and shook his head, I don't know. - Before you, I sent four Qin Messengers to Cheng'an Mansion in Southeast Province to inspect the tax amount. As a result, there were only two Qincha, and the other two were said to be the Qingjiang River, and the official ship overturned and died on the Qingjiang River. ”

Jian Feiyang was a little surprised, that Qin Cha said? ”

"Of course, there is no evidence, everything is fine in Cheng'an Mansion." The saint actually smiled bitterly twice.

Jian Feiyang sighed, reassuring His Majesty with the Holy Lord's hand. Wechen will definitely help His Majesty make this mission. ”

The saint patted him on the shoulder and told him that you will go this time, and you will inspect the guards in various parts of the Southeast Dao, knowing that you are a military general. Secretly, it is still necessary to check the tax amount and see what Xie Yun, the prefect of Cheng'an Mansion, is doing. - It would be better if we could get real evidence. If you can't get it, don't force it, peace is the most important thing. ”

Jian Feiyang smiled, nodded, thanked the saint for his care, and also said to the saint Your Majesty, King Anjun left Beijing a few days ago to go to sea, and now that Weichen has also left Beijing, the saint should take more care. It is better to minimize micro-service travel like this in the future. ”

The saint smiled and said, I have lived in the people for more than ten years, how can it be so expensive? As he spoke, the topic turned to state affairs, "Originally, the reduction of taxes paid by the Southeast Road was not a big deal in previous years, but in the past two years, Longxi Road has been in a drought for many years, and I have been exempted from taxes in Longxi Road for five years, and Zuojiang Road and Longxi Road are separated by a green river, which is not much better." Gangnam Province is severely waterlogged, and it looks like it will have to reduce taxes this year. For example, if there are three of the five roads today, there are actually problems in three places, and this southeast road is particularly important. When he was about to get on the boat, the saint was still chatting with Jian Feiyang.

Jian Feiyang smiled and waved to the saint, turned around and boarded the gangplank, and walked towards the official boat.

Not far from the surroundings, there were a few idlers in ordinary clothes standing in twos and threes, seemingly casually looking at the crowd on Mǎ's head. Jian Feiyang, these are the saint's personal guards, they don't look outstanding, but they are all masters with one to a hundred.

In this way, Jian Feiyang took two personal soldiers and a small servant Dongyuan, and took the official ship to Cheng'an Mansion in Southeast Province.

This time it is half a month. In the past half a month, Jian Feiyang has deeply realized that the saint has decided to send a military general to secretly do the errand of a civilian official. ——The water in Cheng'an Mansion in the southeast province is indeed not stirred up by the powerless civil officials.

Dong Yuan came out of the back cabin and saw Grandpa Guo standing in the bow of the ship, motionless, as if thinking about something.

"Grandpa Guo, dinner is ready...... Dong Yuan waited for a long time, seeing that Grandpa Guo had not turned around, and the two soldiers behind him couldn't wait to urge him, and kept poking him in the backbone with a long stick behind him. TECO had no choice but to remind Jian Feiyang out loud.

Jian Feiyang glanced back at him, just in time to catch a glimpse of a long stick shrinking back into the cabin behind Dong Yuan. The corners of Jian Feiyang's mouth curled slightly, and he asked, "Eat at night?" ”

Dong Yuan saw that Grandpa Guo was not angry, and he also smiled, and said happily, of course, eating fish. We are on the Qingjiang River, and there is fresh fish to eat. Yesterday I ate the lotus white roasted Qingjiang red carp, the day before yesterday I ate the koi stewed pheasant cub soup, and the day before yesterday I ate the braised green jiāng'luo non-fish...... "If it weren't for Jian Feiyang's voice to stop it, the good Dong Yuan could have counted all the way back to the time when they first got on the boat.

"Eat fish every day, you still don't get tired of it?" Jian Feiyang laughed all the way and bent all the way into the inner cabin.

The official ship they took was divided into two floors, the upper floor was where the officials slept, talked, and worked for work, the lower floor was the place to eat, and the residences of the subordinates and entourage were also on the lower floor.

"How is the 'guest' we invited today?" Jian Feiyang sat down at the table, took a pair of chopsticks to steam the squirrel fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

Dong Yuan smiled and leaned into Jian Feiyang's ear, and said softly that he had a meal of 'stir-fried meat with bamboo shoots' as usual in the morning. The small ones and Brother Dongzi and Brother Chunsheng take turns to sit in the village and move their muscles and bones. ”

Jian Feiyang smiled, put down his chopsticks, picked up Lao Baigan on the side, took a sip, and said that it is okay to fight early and late, just remember not to die, I will not be able to deal with it. ”

Dong Yuan and the other two soldiers, who were called "Brother Dongzi" and "Brother Chunsheng" as he had called them earlier, sat down on the other three sides of the table and began to eat.

When they came out this time, although they had the status of subordinates and master servants, Jian Feiyang had never been a person who liked to put on a show. All the way, they all lived in the same house as the little servant Dongyuan, and there were two pro-soldiers who lived in the same house and ate the same meals, and they were not at all high enough to be a superior person.

During the meal, Jian Feiyang said very little, but Dong Yuan and the two pro-soldiers kept arguing for a moment.

After Jian Feiyang finished eating, Dong Yuan and the two pro-soldiers only ate half of the meal.

Seeing that Jian Feiyang had finished eating, Dong Yuan hurriedly put down his rice bowl and went to the kitchen next door to make a bowl of tea for Jian Feiyang.

Jian Feiyang smiled and picked up the tea bowl and was about to drink it, when a strange sweet and sour taste made him frown.

TECO sat back in his place, picked up the bowl and continued to eat. Dongzi, a pro-soldier on the side, kicked Dong Yuan under the table.

Dong Yuan screamed and looked up to curse, but saw Dongzi, who kicked him, motioning for him to look at Grandpa Guo.

Dong Yuan turned his head and saw Jian Feiyang holding the tea bowl in a daze, sniffing and sniffing, but he didn't drink it.

"Grandpa Guo, is this tea unappetizing? - I said that Grandpa Guo should not be too picky, this tea is still the most famous Tieguanyin in Southeast Province, and you can only buy half a tael of silver. Dong Yuan chattered, thinking that Jian Feiyang was not used to drinking the tea he bought at the tea house outside. Xie Yun, the prefect of Cheng'an Mansion, gave them a good red robe, but unfortunately Xie Yun was afraid that he would have a life to collect it, but he would not use it. After letting their grandfather get on the boat, they poured it into the Qingjiang River and soaked it for the dragon lord to drink.

Jian Feiyang sniffed twice, handed the tea bowl to the soldier Dongzi, and said, "Smell it, is this smell familiar?" ”

Dong Zihu took the tea bowl suspiciously, lowered his head and sniffed it, and asked Dong Yuan with a strange face, where did you get the tea? ”

Dong Yuan Zhang's second King Kong was confused, and he was stunned in the kitchen next door. There was a pot of hot water sitting on the stove, and I used that pot of hot water to make tea. ”

"What about the tea? What about tea bowls? Where did you get it all from? Another pro-soldier Chunsheng also took the tea bowl and sniffed it, also frowned, and asked Dongyuan Xingshi for his guilt.

TECO's heart sank, and the tea leaves were always in my arms. The tea bowl was brought by us, and we used it yesterday......"

There is no problem with the tea leaves and tea bowls, and the problem is the pot of hot water.

Jian Feiyang got up suddenly, his body shook, and he had already gone to the kitchen next door.

There was an indescribable smell in the kitchen, it seemed to be sweet and greasy, and it looked like ginger and garlic that had just been cooked.

A steaming large teapot sat on the fire in the stove. When I opened the lid of the teapot, a sweet and sour smell that was exactly the same as the tea I had just made came out.

Jian Fei raised his eyebrows and frowned even tighter. They traveled all the way, and on weekdays, even the meals were made by the two soldiers and Dong Yuan themselves, and even the officials on the official ship were not allowed to interfere. - The only thing that can be done is probably to boil hot water.

"Grandpa Guo, the person at the helm is gone" The pro-soldier Dongzi hurriedly ran in to report.

When Jian Feiyang got up and went to the kitchen, the pro-soldier Dongzi and Chunsheng sensed that something was wrong. The sharp instincts they had cultivated over the years on the battlefield made them feel that danger was pressing, and they quickly split up and went to important places on the ship. Donko goes to the cockpit in the rear compartment, and Haru gets out of the bilge to check on the "guests" they have invited.

The cockpit was close, Dongzi looked at the door, and the helmsman at the helm was missing, so he immediately returned to the galley in the front cabin and reported to Jian Feiyang.

Only TECO sat stupidly at the dinner table, feeling like a drum that he shouldn't have done something. - He is the little guy Xu from the He family who gave to Jian Feiyang. At that time, Jian Feiyang had already achieved fame, was reinstated, worshipped the general, and returned to the capital. Compared with the two pro-soldiers who had been born and died by Jian Feiyang's side, he was naturally slightly inferior.

Chunsheng's shouts came from the bilge, and there seemed to be a faint sound of fists and kicks.

Jian Feiyang and Dongzi jumped out of the kitchen at the same time and rushed to the bilge.

The bilge held the important "human witnesses" they were going to bring this time, and they were given special care all the way.

Jian Feiyang and Dongzi went down to the bottom cabin and saw Chunsheng fighting with the two of them.

There was also a man next to him who was untying the "guest".

Jian Feiyang quickly rushed in, first put down the person who was untying the rope, and knocked the "guest" unconscious with another punch.

The other two who were fighting with Chunsheng saw Jian Fei and them, and they winked at each other and jumped away at the same time. One rushed to the window, and the other to the door, trying to disturb the sight of the people in the house, and fleeing.

Jian Feiyang and Dongzi cooperated tacitly, and they didn't need to exchange glances, one person blocked the window and the other blocked the door, blocking the way of the two.

Chunsheng saw that a helper had come, and shouted loudly Grandpa Daoguo, this official ship? - It's a complete thief ship."

(n_n) o three watches. Go ahead and ask for a pink ticket.
