"Lady." Gongsun Yan was standing on the watchtower, and suddenly heard someone shouting below, and the voice was a little familiar.

Looking down, it was a hard thing that I hadn't seen for a long time.

He was dressed in a small official costume and looked good-looking, followed by several girls with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.

With the recovery of Zhang Zhu Wang Wu, Xin Shi was also idle.

His leg injury was delayed on the road, and Gongsun Yan did not have the spare strength to buy 10,000 supplies of healing potions at that time, and after the wound healed, it still affected his walking.

Gongsun Yan has not yet equipped the army with Takahashi saddles and stirrups, but only nailed horseshoes to the mounts of Zhao Yun, Xiahoulan and others.

At this time, the cavalry rode on the horse and relied on the strength of the waist and legs to stabilize the body, while killing the enemy and shooting on horseback.

Therefore, before the Gongsun Yan cavalry assembled the saddle stirrups on a large scale, Xin Shi and Zhang Zhu would greatly reduce their combat power when they mounted their horses.

However, if they don't have combat power, it doesn't mean that they will be abandoned.

Gongsun Yan sent Zhang Zhu to his side to listen to it, and Xin Shi followed Zhao Yun to Lu Long.

He also listened to Zhao Xi's enlightenment course in the main house for a while, and he could even understand some words with Meng Daichai, so he followed Zhou Xing and was responsible for handling the internal affairs of the county temple.

Hearing that Gongsun Yan was coming, he personally brought several selected officials and maids to meet him.

Gongsun Yan came down from the watchtower, Xin Shi stepped forward to greet him a few steps, and he barely saw the injury on his leg when he walked.

"Lady." Xin Shi bowed down, got up and pointed to a row of officials and maids behind him, "I brought some officials and maids." ”

Gongsun Yan's gaze swept over these girls who didn't look very old.

Some of these girls were confiscated as slaves because someone in the family had committed a crime.

Some were private slaves, whose masters had committed crimes and were confiscated as private property as official slaves.

They are all girls with rough fates, and they are only ten years old.

Gongsun Yan looked at them, and they lowered their eyebrows and looked at Gongsun Yan.

They only knew that they were going to come here to serve a nobleman, and they didn't dare to ask.

At this time, I saw that it was a young and beautiful girl, living in the yard that the county monarch had specially ordered to sweep and arrange, so she became more and more well-behaved and docile.

Gongsun Yan took a look at it and asked them to go down to do things and follow Ah Qing's instructions.

It happened that Gongsun Yan also wanted to ask Xin Shi about something, so he left him for tea.

It happened that the light in the front yard was good, so the maids set up seats and tables, and went to the chef of the official temple to get tea fruits.

It is said that it is a tea fruit, but in fact, it is simply some white plums and dried fruits.

In this era, it was used as a seasoning, but at this time, it was put on the table as a tea food.

Xin Shi was very ashamed of this: "I didn't know that the lady was coming, and I didn't prepare any suitable tea, so I ask the lady to forgive me." ”

The temples in this county are all rough men, and the thoughtful Zhou Xing is busy with household registration every day, and he has no time to be distracted from such trivial things as tea and food.

"It doesn't matter." Gongsun Yan doesn't care about these people, but if this kind of tea food is to entertain foreign guests, it is still not good.

Thinking about it, Gongsun Yan asked about some county temples and food officials and maids.

Xin Shi was originally a fighting man in the army, but his personality was honest and responsible, and although he answered Gongsun Yan's questions a little stumblingly, he occasionally needed to stop recalling.

But there were no obvious omissions.

After asking, it was not early, and Gongsun Yan knew more about the situation here in his heart, leaning on the desk, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Xin Shi didn't bother her to think, she stepped back on her own, went to the chef, and arranged a table of still sumptuous meals.

A bowl of millet rice for one person, two plates of dried fish and some boiled eggplant melon and some meat skewers grilled on willow skewers.

Looking at these meals, Gongsun Yan sighed.

At this time, Zhao Yun, who was worried about whether he could eat enough by Gongsun Yanji, rode on a white horse.

He was wearing a fine armor in a military uniform, without a scarf, and the thin armor was covered with blood stains, and half of the white horse under him was dyed cherry red

Immediately on the hillside, looking at the sun gradually setting in the west, Zhao Yun waited calmly.

Finally, a galloping horse came.

"Captain Zhao, the owner of the manor below, came to see you." The knight turned over and dismounted to report back, and the excitement after the killing on his face did not fade.

They have worked hard all day, and what they are looking forward to tasting is the victory of this moment.

"Please." Zhao Yun retracted his gaze and said lightly.

After a while, an old man with messy white hair and a frightened face was brought over.

"County gentleman, I am willing to return the good land belonging to the county officials, and please ask the county gentleman to spare ......"

The old man gasped hurriedly, and the words begging for mercy swirled in his mouth for a long time before he spoke: "Please spare the lives of my whole family." ”

Although his family is not a big family, there is a daughter in the family who married the previous county monarch as a young wife, and with this relationship, he is also a local overlord in this remote township.

The good land of the official subordinates who originally belonged to the pavilion was encroached on for several years.

This time, the new county monarch took office and issued an official document to measure the acres of land.

Although they had heard rumors that the new county monarch was brave and good at fighting, they were a little contemptuous because of his background.

He joined forces with some people who were also unwilling to spit out the fat in their mouths, wanting to fight against the crowd, betting that the new county monarch had just taken office and had an unstable foundation and did not dare to act rashly.

Unexpectedly, this young county gentleman raised the butcher's knife so vigorously.

The old man froze on the ground, none of the three letters he had sent for help had been answered, and seeing that the walled gate was about to be breached by a strange siege equipment, he had to show his old face and come to surrender and plead.

The old man knelt on the grass, his face buried deep in the mud.

At this time, he didn't hate Zhao Yun in front of him, he hated even more people who took the initiative to persuade him to disobey, but there was no response to his request for help.

Those who say that they are good to watch over each other, and those who have broken their trusts really do not die well.

"My husband is very polite." To his surprise, the young man opposite him did not rise to the top because of the victory, but dismounted and supported him by the arm and lifted him up.

"If you are willing to return it, then it is fine!"

The old man listened to the other party's low and gentle voice, and did not dare to look up, seeing the blood stains on the other party's skirt and armor, he trembled a little, and only felt that the blood was extremely pungent.

His eldest son was shot by the person in front of him on the wall.

The old man did not relax because of the other party's gentleness and politeness, he hung his head and waited for the other party to give an answer and decide the life and death of his family.

"Since you are willing to return it, please also ask the old man to order to cooperate with the measurement of the acres of land, and don't resist anymore."

"As long as the old man no longer resists, he will not kill more, and only act according to the law."

Finally hearing this Zhao Xianjun say this, the old man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he put down the knife at this moment, even if it is done according to the law, even if he is confiscated into the official slave, the heirs of the family can leave a trace of blood.

"Thank you, county." The old man's eyes were full of remorse, his gray hair fell down, and the whole person was depressed.

The old man was paralyzed and could not walk.

Zhao Yun waved his hand and asked the two soldiers to help him down and open the gate of the village.

The remnants of the sun on the horizon finally disappeared on the horizon, Zhao Yun patted the war horse lightly, and let out a long breath.

The old man who left was confused and didn't pay attention to the smell of the cars dragging the bodies of several first-in-class criminals in the distance.
