In the past, it was the four archways, which was the downtown of the street, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians, and the roadside vendors were selling non-stop.

Chongzhen walked into a jewelry store, picked out a set of longevity locks on the counter, and looked at it.

"The guest officer has taken a fancy to this object?" The shopkeeper saw that the person who came was handsome, dressed smartly, and had a military badge pinned to his waist, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"How do you sell it?"

"Just tattoo three taels of silver, a fair price."

Chongzhen took out a silver ingot from his arms and put it in the shopkeeper's hand, pointed to the wrench in the counter, and said, "This is five taels, how about loading the two wrenches together?" ”

The shopkeeper was ecstatic, this was a big mistake. Afraid that Chongzhen would regret it, he quickly retrieved the longevity lock in Chongzhen's hand, and lowered his head to pick up the bag.

Taking advantage of this gap, Chongzhen looked outside the shop, and there was a person standing opposite and looking at himself sneakily, the two looked at each other, and the person hurriedly turned his head away to look elsewhere.

"Fools can see you're following me." Chongzhen said secretly in his heart.

After receiving the package handed by the shopkeeper, Chongzhen suddenly covered his abdomen with his hands, pretending to be in pain and asked, "Oh, my belly, can the shopkeeper's store borrow me the reincarnation of grains?" ”

The shopkeeper was amused when he heard this, this official speaks differently, and the toilet can also say flowers.

Stretched out his arm towards the backyard of the shop, "Go inside and turn right in the backyard, please take care of yourself." ”

The man on the other side of the door squinted and saw that Chongzhen was suddenly holding his stomach and comparing something with the shopkeeper, and he couldn't help but look over his face to take a closer look, but saw Chongzhen turn his head to look at him again, and quickly turned his head again.

can't be found by him, if he loses it, he has to suffer a meal of flesh and skin.

When he turned around again, there was only one shopkeeper left in the shop, and he secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly ran into the shop to ask the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper pointed to the backyard suspiciously, and said, "I've gone to the toilet." ”

Following the guidance of the shopkeeper, I walked to the backyard, the toilet was empty, and I only saw that the wooden door of the backyard was open, and it was swaying back and forth by the wind, "squeaking".

Chongzhen seemed calm and calm in the shop, but in fact, he went out of the backyard door, and hurriedly ran wildly, walking the streets and alleys. After a series of "anti-reconnaissance" operations, gasping for breath and finding himself lost.

Looking around for directions, I finally found the inn where I settled when I entered the city, and after standing at the door to make sure that there was no suspicious person following behind me, I walked in.

The three of them sat around in the wing, and Yang Boxian said: "According to what the eldest brother said, the scholar is a little strange, and he should have something to do with it. ”

"Yes, it's better to wear less in the city, there are quite a lot of high-ranking officials in the city, and it is inevitable to show your stuffing when you encounter someone who is tempted."

As soon as Chongzhen finished speaking, he remembered something, got up and picked up a red cloth package from the table, handed it to Yang Boxian, and said, "It's for you." ”

Yang Boxian pointed at himself suspiciously, saw Chongzhen nodded, took the package and opened it, and saw that there was a set of long-lived hundred-year-old locks and two wrenches lying inside.

"Passing by a shop, I remembered that your family should be full moon, so I bought it. By the way, and the leather wrench in your hand, it's all rotten, try this copper one to see if it fits? ”

Yang Boxian's mouth opened and closed, unable to speak, and tears flashed in his eyes.

An upright person like him, coercion and temptation are difficult to buy his heart, and only this subtle act of exchanging sincerity for sincerity can touch the weakness.

Chongzhen's move actually has no deep meaning, but he just kept the details of life in mind and did it easily, and he didn't think that he would unintentionally insert willows and willows into the shade, in exchange for Yang Boxian's sworn allegiance in the future.

Chongzhen saw Yang Boxian's appearance, and hurriedly said: "You have to do it, don't come to this set with my brother, like a girl, don't just pay me back, it's not bad to give the longevity lock to the prince." ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly imitated the child's cry on the side, teasing and puffing, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.

Yang Boxian was also amused, and put the package in his arms like a baby, this is given to me by the eldest brother, how can I return it?

"Boxian, I want to entrust you with a serious matter, okay?"

"Big brother just command."

Chongzhen got up and paced in the room, saying as he walked: "Since you have successfully settled in Fucheng this time, you and your wife and daughter will live in Song Mansion with me, don't go to your relatives." ”

"Big brother, what kind of business is this, I can follow you to enjoy happiness in Fucheng, who still goes to the countryside of Laoshizi to see the faces of relatives, brothers can't ask for it."

"I'm not done yet."

Yang Boxian scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Before, I heard you say that your wife and sister-in-law are Yanggao, right?"

"Yes, my wife-in-law is Yang Hewei."

"Well, right now, I want to form a regimental training camp, the number of people is set at five hundred, and I will go to the top of the list, Bo Xian only needs to go to Yanggao on my behalf to see if I can recruit some local villagers, how about it?"

"Big brother, my wife's sister-in-law's family is a little popular in the local area, and it is not difficult to gather people, but the situation is difficult, and many hard-working people can't eat. And this army is not much different from the bandits, the reputation is notorious, most of the people who are willing to break into the camp with them, and the rest are afraid that they are unwilling..."

Chongzhen brought another heavy package and said, "This is two hundred taels." Bring some food and clothing in the city, and bring them with you. Tell them that he who will be with me will have two meals a day, meat for each meal, and two taels of silver a month, and no deduction. ”

"Two two!? Big brother, will there be more? Yang Boxian felt pain for Chongzhen.

Chongzhen patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's not much at all, you just do it, and I'll take care of the rest." In the future, Bo Xian will be the head of the group training, and my brother will rely on you a lot. ”

"Me? Brother, I only hunt. Yang Bo pointed at himself first, only to see Chongzhen nodding his head and his eyes firm, without any joke.

........

Yang Boxian left the wing room with two packages full of concern, and went to the next room to say goodbye to his wife and daughter, and only Chongzhen and Wang Chengen were left in the room.

"Cheng'en, you also have something to do."

Wang Chengen immediately knelt down, Chongzhen saw his panicked look, he was angry, and kicked him lightly in the ass.

Wang Chengen sighed, long live the kick on his body, sweet in his heart.

"Datong General Soldier Jiang Xuan, do you have an impression?"

"The slave maid has seen it, his brother's name is Jiang Rangnai Yulin General Soldier, and it seems that there is a younger brother who also serves in the army."

"After this Jiang Hao surrendered to the thief, the official was in his original position, and he was still in Datong Mansion. Listening to Song Xiancai, Jiang Hao was set up by Zhang Tianlin, who broke into the camp and stayed behind to assist, in name only. ”

"Long live the Lord means that Jiang Jiu has not been reused after surrendering, Zhang Tianlin's name is actually surveillance, and there will be a gap between the two, and there will be an opportunity to rebel?"

"Yes, this matter should not be rushed, you find an opportunity to secretly contact Jiang Hao and observe his reaction. In the future, you will live here permanently, I still have more than two hundred taels left, you can take it to do things, if it is not enough, come to the Song Mansion to find me. ”

"The slave and maid understand."

Wang Chengen was about to get up after answering, Chongzhen grabbed his hand and advised: "This person may be capricious, not to be fully trusted, remember to protect yourself as your own, if you encounter an accident, it will be like a broken arm." ”

"The old slave will live up to the emperor's order."
