Carrying a gift to find her, I wanted to ask her to help introduce one or two neighbors to join the company, she thought for a while, and felt a little embarrassed, "The general has his own personal soldiers, and there are servants in the house, and there is no shortage of people in Langzhong." ”

Li Er seemed a little disappointed, but he didn't continue to force it, "Seeing that winter is coming, life is not easy, Lang Jun is not laughing." ”

She waved her hand and hurriedly said that it didn't matter, "If there is a vacancy, I will come to find Second Brother Li." ”

There was a cold scene at the wine table for a short time, and soon Li Er found two or three more neighborhood gossip to talk about, although it was all trivial, but Li Er's eloquence was better than her, and trivial things could be told interestingly. Just drinking wine and chatting aimlessly, feeling the rare after-work time, Li Er changed to a very appropriate situation, so she didn't notice any weird problems.

"Chang'an City has not been peaceful these days," he said quietly, "I heard that many families with a little surplus have been locked up by the city captain, and I don't know if those charges are true or false." ”

"Naturally, it's fake," she said indifferently, "where are there so many unfilial, disloyal, and disobedient people, you see that people are arresting people all over the street, and those who know know know that this is Chang'an City, and those who don't know think it's Sodom." ”

“…… Sohoma? ”

"There are no horses," she said calmly, "and my horse is ready to be sold, and it will be in vain." ”

Li Er scratched his head, glanced at her cautiously, and continued to turn the topic back, "It's also revenge, revenge, I heard that among the guys in the Yang family, there are also people who have a slight complaint about the housewife." ”

"That's normal, who doesn't chew their tongue behind their backs, and who doesn't have their tongues chewed by others behind their backs." She said.

"Lang Jun never talks about right and wrong." Li Er immediately slapped the ass carefully.

[That's because she told me everything about right and wrong. Black Blade added coldly, "Look at this stupid man, you really are a tight-lipped person. 】

Cough.

"I don't talk about right and wrong, but I've been talked about by others," she said naturally, "and you've talked about me behind my back before." ”

Li Er instantly turned into an embarrassed face, "Lang Jun, that's all in the past!" ”

"That's right, so it's not a big deal." She said, "It's just a little fun, and it's boring not to chew your tongue." ”

"Then what if ......" Li Er carefully poured her full of wine, "what if someone ran to the city captain to chew his tongue?" ”

She finally understood what Li Er was talking about.

"If I can't get by, I understand," she said, "but I look down on such people." ”

"I heard that the sage has a saying, 'The king regards his ministers as dogs and horses, and the ministers regard the king as his countrymen', and there is not much friendship between the master and the mercenary...... Li Er's face turned slightly sideways, pretending to drink, and carefully observing her reaction with his spare eyes.

"If the lord who has given a bowl of rice to eat has a mortal enmity, if he has never made any grudges, he does not have to deliberately find a reason to rebel against the master," she said lightly, "There are always people in this world who want to do shameless things and leave a good reputation in the history books." ”

"Anyway—" A very familiar voice suddenly came from outside the window, "This neighborhood is mostly a neighbor of Bingzhou, although it is not as prosperous as the land of Gyeonggi, and it is better to be protected by the general, so it will not have to betray its friends and neighbors in exchange for a bowl of rice." ”

Today's Zhang Liao is wearing a fish-scale iron armor and a robe, and he looks a little like the same style as the teaching director, especially when the boots step on the floor and make the sound of metal pieces intertwining and rubbing against each other, which is particularly cold and hard.

But he seemed to be in a good mood, and walked in with a smile.

Li Er stood up in a panic and wanted to salute, but he waved his hand inadvertently and was exempted.

"Passing by here, I happened to meet my brother," he said, "and the streets are still quiet these days?" ”

Naturally quiet, how can it not be quiet, this is a community of military families in Bingzhou, although they can't directly eat the military food benefits allocated by the Taishi, they can also eat a little indirectly.

For example, the cloth woven by the Fan family can be exchanged for grain for the people of Bingzhou, for example, the meat of the sheep family can also be exchanged for grain from the people of Bingzhou, and the husband is not at home all day, and it is not easy for a little woman to go out to chop wood, so it is very convenient for the neighbors who pick up more firewood to exchange two catties of corn with her.

Zhang Liao came all the way and saw a quiet and comfortable idyll.

"Everything's fine." She nodded.

So the clear and bright eyes bent, "That's good, if the virtuous brother encounters any tricky things, even if he can't find the general, he can also go to the camp outside the city to find me." ”

After thanking her, she looked at the back of the one who went out and got on the horse, and sighed a little emotionally, [The whole Chang'an was like falling into a battle royale overnight, but this dog couldn't see it. 】

The Black Blade was silent for a moment, and when it sounded again, there was a hint of coldness in his voice.

[You are wrong, he not only sees it, but thinks more than you. It said, "Why do you think he would imply that the area you live in is a rare gem in the city?" 】

【…… Ha? What do you mean? 】

But he was also wrong. Black Blade didn't seem to be ready to explain to her at all, and skipped the discussion part altogether, and came to a conclusion directly, [He thought that something could cover up the past, he was too naïve. 】

No matter what Zhang Liao wanted to cover up, at least the current chaos in Chang'an City could not be ignored by anyone.

Those neighbors, friendly neighbors, and even relatives reported each other and made false accusations against each other, and soon turned into a storm that swept Chang'an. As long as someone is reported and exposed, the person who raised the report or the person who is reported is destined to die - this is not accurate, and it is more right to die.

"Nine Chapters Law", "Pang Chapter Law", "Yue Gong Law", "Chao Law" and so on have all been torn up by the Taishi, no matter what crime is committed, there is only one way to punish: beheading and abandoning the city, and having no official property.

Since a copy is a family, then a kill is also a family is more right, the court captain, the guard captain, and the city captain are all dispatched, and the 007-style class of receiving the copyist and beheading a dragon has been added from the forbidden army to the small officials.

If you consider the problem from a more black humor perspective, this method kills two birds with one stone, Taishi quickly amassed a lot of wealth in this way, and Chang'an City, which was overcrowded and starved, was quickly cleaned up. Someone will always die, and in the Battle Royale version, it may not be you who dies, so the most desperate person can also have a little faith and turn their hateful eyes to others.

Lu Hangyu can't shelter the entire Chang'an City, she thinks, in fact, Zhang Liao is right, she can only hide in the streets and alleys of the people of Bingzhou, and dream of being quiet and happy.

The sun set, full of wine and food, each went home, and before going out, the salted fish resolutely settled the account, since Li Er failed to succeed in finding a job, he couldn't let people ask for this meal in vain.

But before she returned to the courtyard gate, she was digging through her pockets and looking for the key, when suddenly there was a chaotic sound of footsteps at the entrance of the alley.

A small group of soldiers, led by the captain, rushed into the alley and ran past her eyes!

The chaotic running sound immediately attracted the attention of the neighbors on both sides, Fan Shi dropped the loom, Mei Niang also ran out of the house, and seemed to have instructed Ah Qian before going out, asking him not to come out casually to see the excitement.

The small group of soldiers stopped at the end of the alley, and then the petty officer triumphantly slapped open the courtyard door, "Are you the lieutenant Cao Peng's subordinate Zhang Jin?" ”

So Zhang Jin's round face stretched out from the courtyard door, nodded in panic, and just as he was about to say something, the little officer shouted, "Someone is calling you an official!" It has been ascertained—"

It seemed that he didn't memorize the lines, he stuck his shell, and then continued to yell, "Income to go to the forest prison, confiscate the family property!" ”

The crying sounds, the sound of mercy, the sound of smashing, the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, suddenly mixed together. Unconsciously, the people on a street, whether it was the old neighbors of Dongsandao or the people of Bingzhou who lived on this street, came out to watch.

Zhang Jin seemed to be desperately trying to forgive, but the impatient little officer punched him in the round face, and in an instant he was silent.

She unconsciously reached behind her back, and when she was about to touch the black cloth wrapped around the black blade, Meiniang suddenly glanced at her and shook her head.

“…… Sister? ”

Mei Niangzi ran back to the house, and after a while she carried a jug of wine, and two bowls went out of the door, her hands and feet were extremely steady, and she looked no different from the wine shop when she held the flask.

She was more than a dozen paces away, so everyone could not see what she said, but she saw that her face was very attentive, and she did not know what she said, but she actually made the little officer laugh, drank a bowl of wine, and motioned to a few of her men to drink some wine and rest. When these people had drunk and continued to search the house, the sound of smashing things was not so loud, and finally they pushed the goods out of the house, and the family did not seem to suffer too much, tied their hands with ropes, and pushed and shoved and left.

When the group of people was gone, almost all the neighbors ran out in an instant and crowded in front of Zhang Jin's house.

"Mei Niang, why the hell?! Did someone cite Zhang Gong? ”

"Yes, Gong Chang treats us very well," said one of the neighbors at once, "I don't believe there is such an unkind and unrighteous person!" ”

Mei Niangzi's eyes flashed and flashed in the setting sun, "I also asked carefully, the man said that these subordinates were originally going to report the suspects in the neighborhood, but Zhang Ziwang repeatedly shirked it, saying that there were no traitors in this street and alley, so it made the boss displeased......"

"That being the case," said the young lady of the Yang family at once, "we have to find some way, if we can go to the forest prison to find out, we can also find out what is true." ”

"My mother-in-law has an in-law ......"

"But what do you have to prepare......?"

Most of the neighbors of the street gathered together and discussed the plan to save Zhang Jin, and in the noise, the voice of the black blade suddenly sounded coldly.

[Not true.] 】

【…… How is it wrong? 】

[Do you remember what Zhang Liao said? 】

She thought for a moment, and suddenly understood what the black blade was saying, [Is this a tentative attack by some forces, such as the Xiliang people, on the Bingzhou system? 】

[I guess this will never be the original intention of Master Dong,] the black blade's voice was fluttering, but considering that he has already made a lot of stupid moves, he probably doesn't know what the consequences will be after the promulgation of this law. 】

It doesn't sound like she needs to rob the prison herself, but the question is, can she convince Lu Bu?

If he is not incurably stupid, he should know what he should do. Black Blade paused, his voice suddenly became a little uncertain, and even a little hesitant, [He's not too stupid to be helped, right? 】

Chapter 55

Everyone's plan to rescue Zhang Gong has a little eyebrows, first of all, I have to give some gifts to the little officials in Shanglin Prison, Mrs. Yang took two catties of salted meat out, think about cutting it into small pieces, and wrap it in leaves.

"I've heard that there are more than one or two people who need to be dealt with, and you have to plan it properly."

So the other neighbors went home and rummaged through the bottom of the box to see if there was anything good that could be used to bribe the jailer.

Although Salted Fish is not a family disciple, from Luoyang to Chang'an, except for a piece of combat equipment, there is basically nothing that can be taken out to show others a rare thing...... It seems that there really is one.

She dug out her pillow, turned out the gold-inlaid jade box, and swayed it.

There was still only a very heavy rolling sound of stone inside, and there was no smell of anything.

…… Anyway, it was also deposited by Xiaohuangmen, and it didn't seem good to take it directly to bribe the jailer.

But if you can pry open this box, even if the treasure inside is kept, such a beautiful box, decorated with salted meat, it is also very decent!

After muttering in his heart, Salted Fish finally decided to go to the market early the next morning to have a look.

Time is pressing, let's see how fast Zhang Jin's execution plan is, if you can wait for someone to save you, then go to find Lu Bu, if not, then think of something else crooked and heretical.

When she went to the market, maybe she could sell something, and if she saw something worth bribing, she exchanged two catties of grain for it, but if she didn't have it, she would give it directly.

When I woke up in the morning, I opened the door and a cold air blew in.

Chang'an was fluttering, and it fell a little snow, but the snowflakes were not resolute, so they fell to the ground and turned into water.

The whole street was muddy, and she looked at the shoes on her feet, and still had the courage to put the food in the sheepskin bag, and went out step by step.

Shops in Chang'an are basically closed for business, so the opening hours have become extremely lazy. Halfway through the hour, I walked through one street after another, but I couldn't see a few shops that were open.

But there were still people walking through the streets, and the soldiers under the city captain carried groups of prisoners out of the prisons of Chang'an City, like a river polluted by mud and sand, slowly and wearily marching in the same direction.

Today's market is also very busy, there is a long queue at the entrance, pushing and shoving, abusing each other, some trying to cut the line, some trying to stuff him back, let him honestly obey the rules.

But these people who are in long queues don't buy anything, they are jailers and soldiers who came out a little earlier, and they cut the line not for themselves, but for the prisoners.

These people threw themselves into this work, hoping that today's executioners would try to give priority to cutting down the prisoners in their hands, and for this they could even whisper to the officials in charge of maintaining order, say something nice, and even secretly bribe a bag of bacon.

…… She never thought that the market could still do this.

Since the Shang and Zhou periods, killing people has to be killed in the downtown area, "punishing people in the city, and abandoning them with the public", but no matter how you think about it, it is only a few times a year, and the later emperors don't all pay attention to killing people to meet the time, so there is a rule of asking the queen of autumn?

But now hundreds of prisoners, together with an almost equal number of jailers and guards, plus executioners and people who were ready to carry the corpses, and relatives of the prisoners who wept and wiped their tears to see them off, actually crowded this huge Chang'an city to the ......

Special, don't, hot, noisy! Special, don't, multiply, honor!

Dong Taishi's trick really restored the prosperity and prosperity of the market to the past??? She was far away and watched there for less than a moment, and the line grew longer and longer, with the jailers scolding, relatives crying, prisoners fainting in the mud, scolding the injustice of the world, white beards, and unfinished horns.

The houses next to the market were supposed to be quite expensive, but probably not many people will settle here in the future.
