The next morning, the morning light was rich, and it was a good day.

Outside the west gate of Gangneung Castle, there is an endless wilderness, in the middle of which there is a secluded village, and behind the village is the Shuishui Villa with towering wooden railings.

It's early in the morning, but it's already busy.

The continuous hills, especially sticking to the last piece of green.

The river flowed soothingly and briskly, like silver chains, and the carriages carrying timber and iron galloped across the official road into the village, where they were carefully inspected by the guards at the gate of the villa before entering the lodge.

those mountain people carrying charcoal and sweating black;

those village girls who carry baskets full of all kinds of local products;

and the merchants who came from afar in different costumes, who gathered outside the villa.

It's like...

Only one Shuishui Villa has led to the prosperity of the entire surrounding village.

To be precise, not only the entire village, but also the western suburbs of Gangneung Fortress have become vibrant and prosperous.

Today's Lingju rarely took off her green radish veil.

It was as black as a waterfall, and the three thousand green silks that could hang down to the slender waist were also coiled high, and it seemed to be deliberately fluffy, which seemed to be very scattered.

is a stunning face, but she deliberately inserts a lot of dirt on her face, like a woman who deliberately dresses up as a bitter family.

Those calloused hands complement the identity of the village girl she is playing now.

Wearing a headscarf and a coarse cloth shirt, the original gorgeous posture can't help but be greatly discounted, if it weren't for the eyes full of tenacious light, anyone who sees it will think that this is an ordinary village girl with a good posture but is out of the crowd.

She carried a basket on her back.

As he walked, the killer dressed as a farmer next to him explained softly.

"This water villa is quite mysterious, in addition to the guards on the surface, I don't know how many eyes there are in the secret, if you want to break through, it must be difficult, so... The aggrieved lady pretended to be a statue of this village girl. ”

"It doesn't matter! As long as you can get the job done. ”

Lingju didn't mind at all, just keenly observing his surroundings.

She had done her homework before coming here.

It is known that this water villa has recently risen suddenly on the outskirts of Gangneung.

In addition to the rapid expansion and expansion, the villa also purchased timber, iron, and stone on a large scale, as if it was doing some big business.

… The sound of forging and smelting from time to time resounded in the sky day and night.

Originally, the nearby farmers were quite complaining...

can't stand it, there are too many things to give from the water villa.

The so-called - relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, relying on the water to eat the water.

The farmers who rely on the water village have already made a lot of money.

Who would have any complaints in the face of huge interests?

"Miss, investigating this Huang Laoxie should have been done by us, but let Miss..."

The peasants' men in disguise are still whispering...

"Isn't the word 'Huang Lao Evil Creation' engraved on the crossbow? So... This old evil yellow is also the person that the 'parrot' is looking for. ”

Speaking of which, Lingju suddenly felt something...

It's the gaze that comes from all around.

She quickly gave her subordinates a look, signaling that there were already "eyes" nearby, and she had to pay special attention to everything she said and did.

The peasants' men immediately understood and shouted loudly.

- "Don't you want to go to the water villa to do work, just in front, this month, I sent over, not ten, but eight, just in front." ”

If you want to assassinate Huang Laoxi, the first thing to do is to find out who Huang Laoxie is.

According to the news given by the gold owner, Huang Laoxie is in this Shuishui Villa.

How do I investigate? It became a priority.

And to get into it, to become a female worker, whether it is an investigation, or an assassination, will be much more convenient...

is the easiest way to complete the task.

In addition, Lingju also pondered and took the opportunity to get a few repeaters... In this way, revenge for the father and the mother, there will be a chance.

With this in mind, the spirit jull also raised its tone.

"This Shuishui Villa, everyone wants to go in, Uncle Mu must help me talk..."

"-Well said, well said!"

The subordinate known as Uncle Mu smiled and agreed.

The two of them really walked to the gate of the villa.

Immediately, a guard stopped in front of the two of them.

Uncle Mu hurriedly said: "This is my sister from the countryside, she has no skills, but she is careful, and she wants to come to our villa to be a female worker... When I was recruiting here, I had already introduced a lot, two big brothers, we are familiar faces, I remember... This guard brother's surname is Wu, and this guard brother's surname is Wang! ”

"Have you been reviewed?"

The words asked by one of the guards made Uncle Mu stunned all of a sudden, and his tone stumbled, "What... What a review! ”

- "Witness trial! ”

"Witness... Certification? Uncle Mu asked rhetorically.

He really didn't know this, in the beginning... As a peasant, he led the people of ten miles and eight towns to work, and he didn't have to go through any Lao Shizi testimonial?

"I don't know about this, and I said that there are a lot of introductions, and it's a lie at first glance!"

The guards were getting impatient.

This Uncle Mu was a little at a loss, but Lingju was excited, and hurriedly said: "This big brother, my uncle... I don't know much about it, but I've heard that you can eat well, wear warm clothes, and have a place to live here... I persuaded my sister to come over, we really don't know, this... This... What is a certificate review? ”

Lingju deliberately said that Ai Ai was like a woman in a village who had never seen the world, pitiful.

"Ahem..."

But it was her lovely appearance that made the guards relax their vigilance a little, "The so-called trial is that anyone who comes to work in our villa will bear the brunt of it, and you must prove that your identity is innocent!" ”

Yes...

Lingju still didn't understand a little, and his big eyes blinked.

The guard pointed to the side, which was the side of the lodge... As you can see, there are many sheds built there, and there are many people around the periphery of the sheds, and even people have been going there.

"Go over there, line up for the trial! Then take the wooden sign, and I'll wait before I can let it go! ”

This...

Lingju's big eyes blinked, she had heard for the first time that being a female worker... Unexpectedly... Unexpectedly... So complicated?

Uncle Mu thanked him again and again.

He walked with the Lingju to the chain of sheds on one side.

And it's good not to walk in, but to walk in.

- Good boy!

Lingju was really taken aback.

Person...

That's a lot of people!

Rubbing shoulders, crowds of people... All... They are all queuing up here, waiting for the so-called "trial!" ”

From time to time, voices came from the front.

"—what's your name?"

"——Can the household registration be registered in the government?"

"——Is there a person who holds a 'bronze talisman' who can prove the innocence of your identity?"

"- If not? How do you prove that you are who you are? You're not an outsider? ”

This question came to Lingju's ears.

She suddenly realized that this task was not as simple as she imagined.

The money...

It doesn't seem to be easy to earn!

…

…

Guan Yu's army took the waterway, and there were more than 200 ships on the river, stretching for miles...

When you have to march to the vicinity of Fuhu Mountain in Jiangxia County.

There are scouts who report that the river in front of them is no longer able to sail because of the dry season.

Guan Yu ordered to switch to the land route.

And follow the official road.

On the road on the left side of the front, a pavilion appears, and a stone tablet is set up in the pavilion, and there are three seal characters on it - "Fuhu Mountain"!

Guan Yu stopped his horse and said with emotion.

"It turns out that Kong Mingli's stone tablet is hidden here."

Guan Yinping also followed his father on the expedition, and when he heard his father talk about this stone tablet, he looked puzzled.

Hurriedly asked, "What is the origin of this monument?" ”

Guan Yu raised his hand to stop the team, turned over and dismounted, Guan Yinping and Zhou Cang also dismounted, Guan Yu walked from the front of the monument to the back, and then made a gesture, and ordered Zhou Cang to walk three hundred steps up the mountain along the monument.

Not long after, Zhou Cang returned from the mountain and reported: "Guan Gong, three hundred steps above this monument, there is a stone tablet, which is engraved with the words 'Zhuo Dao Spring'. ”

Guan Yu stroked his long hair and asked Guan Yinping. "Do you know what is the meaning of Kong Ming setting up these two stone tablets?"

Guan Yinping shook his head.

At this time, Guan Ping, Guan Xing, and Guan Suo also came over while unloading the military baggage, and looked at the stele with interest.

I thought about it for a long time... I don't know what it means.

Guan Yu stroked his beard and was about to explain to his sons...

But he never thought that Guan Suo's sudden words changed his mind.

"If the fourth brother is here, he must know."

Not...

It was Guan Suo's words that suddenly made Guan Yu interested.

Guan Yu secretly said in his heart:

- "I have suffered a secret loss on this kid of Yunqi several times, I don't believe that he can solve it... What is the meaning of Kong Ming's erection of this stone stele?'

Thinking of this, Guan Yu smiled and said: "What Wei Zhi said makes sense, you might as well send a letter to Yunqi and ask him, what is the meaning of the two stone tablets of 'Fuhu Mountain' and 'Zhuo Dao Spring'?" If he answers correctly, it is for the sake of paternity and you are considered to have answered correctly. ”

This...

Guan Suo was slightly stunned, and then spoke again, "If the fourth brother answers correctly for me!" What's the reward? ”

Guan Yu didn't think twice. "For the father, I will add you a thousand soldiers!"

This... Guan Xing and Guan Yinping are also eager to try.

Guan Yinping said: "Dad, this is not fair... You can't just add it to the fifth brother! ”

In fact, Guan Yu has always wanted to reward Guan Ping, Guan Xing, and Guan Suo.

It's still the last time that the "Sunset Valley" set up an ambush and hit the tiger and leopard riding.

But in the battle report, in the meritorious column, these three sons are all Guan Lin and Huang Laoxi, which makes it difficult for Guan Yu.

I just want to reward these three sons, add troops to these three sons, and also go out of the army.

Just take advantage of the two stone tablets of 'Fuhu Mountain' and 'Zhuo Dao Spring', first, to test the cloud banner, and secondly, if the cloud banner can answer correctly, it is logical to add troops for these sons, and the right to be the reward for the previous victory in Sunset Valley.

However, Guan Yinping proposed "unfairness", which surprised Guan Yu.

He looked back at Guan Yinping. "What does the silver screen think, how is it fair?"

Guan Yinping had already thought about it, "We took the decipherment of the stone tablets of 'Fuhu Mountain' and 'Zhuo Dao Spring' as the topic, and the test was whether the fourth brother could answer correctly, and the daughter and eldest brother, second brother, and fifth brother all guessed whether the fourth brother could answer correctly. ”

Stop...

Guan Yinping's proposal is a good method.

"Okay..."Guan Yu immediately agreed, "This 'Fuhu Mountain' and 'Zhuo Dao Spring' two stone tablets were set up here by Kong Ming, and it has been three years. ”

"You don't have to guess, the fourth brother will definitely be able to answer correctly." Guan Suo's tone was firm.

Guan Yinping also echoed: "My daughter also thinks that it is just two stone tablets, how can it stump the fourth brother?" The daughter also guessed that he could answer correctly. ”

"Not really." Guan Xing sang the opposite tone as always, "How did the fourth brother ever come to Jiangxia?" How mysterious is the design of Zhuge Junshi? The fourth brother has never even seen the stone tablet, how can he answer it correctly? ”

"In this way, Anguo and I guess that Yunqi is not right." Guan Ping also spoke at the right time. "In this way, two against two, no matter what, my father will not be too embarrassed."

"That's the best." Guan Xing's words blurted out, and he agreed to the proposal of the eldest brother Guan Ping.

Two-on-two!

Guan Yu looked at the group of children discussing, he held his head high, just stroked his beard,

At this moment, a deputy general gave his hand, "General Guan, all the officers and men on the ship have disembarked, so are these more than 100 ships docked here, or are they sailing back to Jiangling?" ”

This one...

Guan Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "The ship is useless during the dry season, so you have the right to stay in this Jiangxia, right?" When the three armies triumph and get through this dry period, it will be quicker to return to Gangneung. ”

"No!"

Immediately, the adjutant general agreed, and he went to arrange.

This is just a small episode.

Guan Yu beckoned Zhou Cang to come over, and his eyes looked at the stele with "Fuhu Mountain" written on it again, and he said with great interest: "What they talked about just now, General Zhou heard it." ”

"Back to Guan Gong, I heard it all."

"General Zhou is not an outsider, and be a witness, the meaning of the stone tablets of 'Fuhu Mountain' and 'Zhuo Dao Spring', and see if Yunqi can answer correctly! Tanzhi, Anguo, Yinping, and Weizhong, if anyone guesses correctly, Guan will add 1,000 troops to it! If anyone guesses wrong, he will lose a thousand troops..."

Speaking of this, Guan Yu realized that Guan Xing, Guan Yinping, and Guan Suo have a thousand existing soldiers and horses?

Immediately, Guan Yu said: "If there are less than 1,000 soldiers under your command, you will go to the logistics army to train for a year." ”

Speaking of this, Guan Yu looked at the children, "So? There are objections! ”

"No..."Guan Suo and Guan Yinping said in unison.

It seems that he is quite confident in Guan Lin.

Guan Ping and Guan Xing gave up their hands and replied with military salutes.

"No!"

So... A small gamble between Guan Yu and his children can be regarded as decided.

"That's... The child sent someone to inquire about the fourth brother. Guan Suo took the initiative to ask for help.

"No need for the fifth son." Zhou Cang said: "The prince of Yunqi went to Changsha, and Guan Gong sent a special general to secretly protect him along the way, no need to send people, just fly the pigeon to inform him." ”

As soon as this statement came out...

Zhou Cang was shocked and speechless, he was worried... secretly protecting the behavior of the four princes, Guan Gong may not want the rest of the sons to know.

Guan Yu didn't mind, just stroked his beard.

At this moment, his heart was also thinking.

- "Yunqi, this kid, can you answer it?"

- "Anyway, this kid went to Changsha? Can you save that Zhang Zhongjing again?'

In fact, Guan Lin's trip to Changsha, Guan Yu has been worried...

That's why he sent generals to protect along the way.

Whether Zhang Zhongjing can be saved or not, Guan Yu doesn't care so much.

Can... Cloud flag, but nothing can happen!

Subtly, Guan Lin's status in Guan Yu's mind has improved a whole lot!

Guan Yu has become more concerned about this son, all the time!

…

…

The spirit is going to cry.

She found that in this water villa, she couldn't prove that she was herself, no... To be precise, she is an "ordinary" village girl.

I finally queued up and waited in line for a long time.

It's the turn of the Spirit...

And what she faced next was a problem that she had never encountered in more than ten years of growth.

The barrage of inquiries.

"--Can the household register be registered in the government office of Gangneung City?"

"-No? Where is your household register? Who can prove it to you? ”

"-In other words, you're a black household?"

"-That's... Can there be a person who holds a 'bronze talisman' who can prove the innocence of your identity? Can you prove your family history? If not, you need five people who have lived in Gangneung for three generations to prove it... And once you are found to be a spy, these five people will be consecuted! ”

One question after another...

Each one is an "unanswerable" question.

Lingju couldn't help but ask questions in his heart.

- It's... Are you choosing a female worker?

How does it feel... This is stricter than being an official, and it is stricter than going to the palace to serve for three generations.

And the first one mentioned is the official registry.

Because in the Han Dynasty, there was no "photo sticker" during the Qin Dynasty.

In the Han Dynasty, the method of identifying identity was too complicated, and often the people had to be registered with the government, which was equivalent to proving that they were the permanent residents of the city once registered.

There is a special Cao Peng official office that can be inquired.

But... Where will the Lingju be registered?

How did she get in?

If she is registered as "Father: Lu Bu" and "Mother: Diao Chan", then she will definitely not live now.

Of course...

It's not surprising that it didn't make the mark.

In the Han Dynasty... Land annexation was severe, and a large number of tenant farmers under the landlords were black households.

For the landlords, they could allow their tenant farmers to escape a series of taxes and forced labor, and produce with peace of mind.

For the official master, it is to gain a lot of filial piety from the landlord.

It's just that, even so, someone should be able to prove a person's innocence.

For example, the person mentioned to hold the 'bronze talisman'.

In Jiangling, Zhuge Liang specially designed a batch of "copper talismans".

The so-called "copper talisman", in fact, has only a small amount of copper on it, mostly wood, and its function is similar to the "fish talisman" of the Tang Dynasty, which is a symbol of official status.

The people of Pingtou do not have it.

If there is a certificate from a person who holds a 'bronze talisman', you can also pass the "certificate examination" to prove the innocence of your identity!

This is equivalent to someone with an official background, endorsing you!

Not even this one.

Guan Lin also devised another method, which is to find five people who have lived in the area for three generations to prove your innocence.

But the price is that if this person is found to be a spy, the five people who prove it will be punished.

Normally, a lodge does not have the right to "sit together".

But who doesn't know? Behind this villa is the thief Cao Peng, who is the fourth son of Guan!

If it is him, then "even sitting" is really very likely!

Merely... Lingju still misunderstood.

Even if it's such a strict question.

But in fact, this is only the first trial.

In other words, there is a review and a final review after this level is answered.

These reviews are not at all for the purpose of screening "male workers" and "female workers", but to screen whether they can become a bag of disciples of the beggar gang.

You must know that under the wise leadership of Hong Qigong and his old man, even if the beggar gang is a bag of disciples, it is enough to live a worry-free life.

Rumors - once you join the beggar gang, you have a bright future!

As for the reason why it is so strict, it is a decision made by Guan Lin and Huang Chengyan after discussion.

Beggar disciples, rather lack than abuse!

Plus...

There are too many secrets in the Shui Shui Villa.

Before Guan Lin moved the Shuishui Villa into the "new city" of Najiangling, he had to strictly screen every beggar disciple to ensure the innocence of his identity.

From the story of "internal disintegration", Guan Lin has heard too much, too much.

And under this so-called "testimonial", Lingju can't prove that she is a pure goodness!

infiltrated the Shuishui Villa through "workmanship", and the idea of assassinating Huang Laoxie was also shattered.

After standing in line for a day, when I left here, I only felt that the back molars "gurgle"!

She gritted her teeth.

"It's... Shuishui Villa, this yellow old evil... Some means! ”

It reminds her.

- "No wonder... This old yellow evil can create that powerful repeater."

- "This guy... It's not easy!'

This is the first time that the leader of this "parrot" has been so embarrassed, so... I can't touch the slightest method and margin.

- "How do you investigate?"

Lingju pursed his lips and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

…

…

Changsha County, among the government offices.

Suddenly, a "distinguished guest" came!

Taishou Liao Li was shocked.

- "I heard, isn't this pair of Guan family father and son not in harmony? How could it be... How could he send you to protect you in secret? ”

This is to be understood on two levels.

First, Liao Li felt that Guan Gong should not have sent someone to protect Guan Lin at all.

In this Jingzhou and Changsha County, can you still send someone to protect it?

Or even secretly protect?

Where is this rebel? This is clearly the treatment that only 'unicorns' have!

Second, Liao Li didn't expect that even if someone was sent to protect him.

It turned out to be...

It turned out to be the one in front of me.

How much does Guan Gong have to pay attention to this "fourth son"?

…

…

There is one chapter missing, and Ming'er made up for it early, so I didn't rush out.

(End of chapter)
