Chapter 32: Do You Know the Prince?
The end of the wind is gone, but Taishi is in the hall.
"What should I do?
"Is there anything upsetting about your lordship?Listening to what Lord Feng said just now, it seems that the lord riding the black dragon is a mortal enemy with him!" Yuwen Jingmo walked over and asked Taishi Ji Chong very considerately.
"Oh, the lord riding the black dragon, I'm not familiar with it either!" Taishi replied casually.
Yuwen Jingmo and Wang Zhengze glanced at each other, how could they feel that the adult in front of them was lying.
It seems that I heard that Duanmu Liang was shot to death by the black dragon.
"Don't say it, don't say it, I'll talk to you about the city lord, you two have to quickly take over the position of city lord, I have made a list of specific things, you can just do it."
For example, how much silver taels is the annual tribute, the tax regulations of Jinyang City, etc......
In short, you just need to pay the annual tribute on time every year. It's up to you to decide how you want to collect your taxes.
In addition, in the event of any armed incident, you need to be pacified and pacified, and in addition to defending the city, you can also expand your own army, but you will be paid at your own expense.
In other words, you have enough freedom and power, as long as you pay the annual tribute regularly. ”
After listening to Taishi San's two sentences and briefly introducing the duties that the city lord should perform, Yuwen Jingmo and Wang Zhengze glanced at each other.
yes, that sounds free, so let's just do it first.
When they saw that the annual tribute needed to pay 100,000 taels of gold to the imperial capital, they were still surprised.
With so many years of tribute, it is no wonder that the Duanmu family is crazy about collecting money in the city, and it is estimated that in addition to these tributes, they also have to deal with some other officials.
So, Yuwen Jingmo cautiously asked Taishi: "In addition to these years of tribute, is there anything else?"
"No, don't think too much, this is yours, after you take over, I'm leaving. ”
As he spoke, Taishi pushed the Great Seal of the City Lord on the table and a stack of documents in front of them.
Then, Taishi Ji Chong hurriedly walked out.
He is now in a hurry to find the Lord Lord, that is, the Jun Yi that Feng Mo said in his mouth.
Yuwen Jingmo and Wang Zhengze glanced at each other again.
"Let's take care of politics first. Wang Zhengze pointed to a stack of documents that Taishi Ji Chong had placed on the bookcase.
"Yes, Brother Wang, do you know the girl of the Hua family that Lord Taishi said?"
"Is that the boy in black?" Wang Zhengze remembered in his mind the way Hua Wu looked when she was fighting hard with gluttony.
"That girl is not an ordinary person, Hua Shaozhong's daughter! Hua Shaozhong can be regarded as a very talented cultivator in Jinyang City back then. The two of them chatted as they flipped through the paperwork on the bookcase.
......
Hua Wu and Han Lian are very comfortable, lunch is four dishes and one soup, and the shopkeeper will send it to the room.
After lunch, the shopkeeper also came up to clean up.
Han Lian looked at her heart and was surprised: "Girl, they are so good to us, are they going to raise fat and good bloodletting?"
Hua Wu also understands in her heart that this is the truth.
But she couldn't say that to Hanlian.
"How so? You're thinking too much. ”
"No, that prince told me, he said that my blood is very good, and he will dry it when he arrives in the imperial capital. ”
"Oh, why did he let it go, didn't he say?"
He didn't say it. Han Lian looked depressed.
Hua Wu vaguely felt that what Han Lian said was right, if it weren't for the usefulness of the blood in the two of them, she really wouldn't have treated them so kindly.
In the evening, Kazeichi and Kazeji came knocking on the door.
"Let's go eat. ”
Hua Wu was surprised, did she eat in her room at noon and go out to eat at night?
She didn't ask much.
After arriving at the front hall of the inn, Hua Wu found that it turned out that the end of the wind had arrived.
Feng Mo naturally sat in a private room, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he motioned for them to sit down.
The private room is also divided into primary and secondary, and Feng Mo naturally sits on the top seat, and the next two seats are obviously reserved for her and Han Lian.
She pulled Hanlian to sit on one side, and Feng Yi and Feng Er sat on the other side.
The shopkeeper was busy serving wine and food, and the wind didn't speak, and the flower dance didn't speak.
Others were even more silent.
Feng Yi and Feng Er kept taking turns to get up, pull up the cuffs for Feng Mo, pour wine, and do what a little girl should do.
Feng Mo was also drinking with peace of mind, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Hua Wu looked at the dishes in front of her and was stunned, squirrel mandarin fish, Deyue Tong chicken, Xi Shi playing with the moon, honey fire recipe, Cordyceps Fuli duck, snail shrimp, jujube paste cake.
She didn't know about these dishes before, just the last time he left the flower family's business, there was a restaurant with these on the menu, and she still remembered that the master made it for them to eat.
But this town is really powerful, it can be compared with Jinyang City, or is it said that Feng Mo is a picky eater, if he doesn't do this, he won't eat at all, thinking about it, Hua Wu thinks that it is more likely to be the latter.
While thinking about it, she secretly glanced at Feng Mo, and found that he ate Sven to the extreme, and ignored them, she couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Han Lian tugged at the corner of her dress.
"Eat. Hua Wu whispered, and Han Lian had no choice but to pick up chopsticks.
"Do you know the prince?" said the lazy words of the end of the wind, and Hua Wu's hand froze.
She was just a subtle movement, but it all fell into the eyes of Feng Mo.
"It seems that you really know! But it's not right! You're far away in this remote corner, and you're 14 years old this year, you shouldn't know our crown prince!" Kazemo muttered to himself.
Hua Wu's heart is turbulent at the moment, looking at his current appearance, combined with what Taishi said before, Feng Mo and the prince are friendly, does that mean that if she knows the prince, she will be able to escape?
But you can't say it completely, if your lie is exposed, will it be in exchange for death?
However, even if she said that she didn't know the prince, he would still take her to the imperial capital.
Thinking of this, she raised her head and laughed: "My lord said that I was joking, how could I know the prince?"
When Feng Mo heard this, a glint flashed in his eyes.
"I don't know! The words of the end of the wind just fell.
There was a knock on the door outside the private room, and Kazemo glanced up in displeasure, obviously annoyed by the uninvited guest.
Kazeji got up and went to open the door.
Standing outside was Taishi Ji Chong.
"Hey, Taishi has found here, it's fast enough!" Feng Mo glared at Taishi Ji Chong sarcastically.
Taishi bowed his hand to Feng Mo and saluted: "Excuse me, I just received a message from the flying pigeon, the prince has a letter, and he wants to hand it over directly to the adult." ”
As he spoke, Taishi handed over a gray dove.
Hua Wu glanced at the dusty Taishi, and her heart was still slightly moved.
Is this indirectly trying to save yourself?
As soon as the wind took the pigeon, he blew lightly on the side of his mouth.
The pigeon suddenly turned into a piece of paper and lay flat in his hand, which he offered to the end of the wind with both hands.
Hua Wu was surprised to see it, it turned out that it wasn't a real pigeon?
Feng Mo glanced at the letterhead, and his face suddenly changed: "Are you sure this is the information that just arrived?"
"My lord, this is a flying pigeon for the prince, I don't think my lord will doubt it. Taishi lowered his head and said in his air.
Feng Mo snorted coldly: "As soon as Feng goes to pack up his salute, return to the imperial capital quickly." ”
