The structure of Jiankang City is very similar to Doucheng, several neat crossroads will turn the city into several large areas, and then divide some laughing houses and so on by some alleys and alleys, the city is a commercial area, a concentration area of all kinds of inns and restaurants, the east of the city is a rich area, the buildings there are mostly gorgeous and rich, the city lord's mansion is built there, the west of the city is a poor area, compared to the high-rise mansion compound opposite, extraordinarily narrow and dilapidated, the south and north of the city are the areas where ordinary people live, because of the two larger city gates in the north and south, it is also very lively every day, and a place close to the east and west two small city gates will also have some ordinary people to live。

Jiankang City is more than twice as large as Dou City in area, the City Lord's Mansion is even more wealthy, the two huge stone lions at the door are majestic and majestic town houses, the gilded copper nails of the vermilion gate are made of three red gold characters on the plaque, and the three big characters of the book "City Lord's Mansion" are not seen for the time being, but it is said that the City Lord's Mansion occupies almost one-tenth of the ground of Jiankang City, or in the best location, Jiankang County Ya is not far from him, there is a little something, the county order to run over to ask for peace.

As for why Jiankang already has a city lord and still has a county order, it is because the city lord of Jiankang was only sent by His Majesty to guard the western border, and Jiankang was the best city in the western border at that time, so he naturally lived here, and his rights were even more enveloped in the entire western border.

However, this year's war broke out between the frontier and Da Yue, His Majesty sent a general to the western border early in the morning, the general is also a capable man with a good way to fight the army, these few months, the Da Yue has not even broken through the Shanhai Pass, which is also the reason why Kangcheng is west but not affected by the war, and is still prosperous and lively.

Thinking that this war should not be fought, but the two sides don't seem to be willing to give up like this, otherwise they won't rub the road now, Hong Tuo, who was walking on the road to explore the people's feelings in Jiankang, while observing the people around him, thought about Dahao's current national conditions.

Walking and walking, it seems that I have come to a remote alley, surrounded by the back doors of some large families, and occasionally out of one or two maids who are doing things for their masters, and their steps are very hurried.

It seems that there is nothing to see here, if you go around for a long time, you may be regarded as a thief who stepped on the point, Hong turned around, and walked a few steps forward, and the bend in front of you can reach the bustling road, which seems to be ......

Hong Tuo looked up, the front of the house seemed to look a little different, as if it was not an ordinary house, just looking at the front and back of the person was pushed away, an old couple was pushed out of the way, because the person who pushed the person did not step out of the door, Hong Tuo could not see clearly, can only hear the man's rough and irritable voice, with a bit of anger and disgust at the old couple yelling and scolding.

"I don't look at what day it has been recently, and I dare to come to the door for these funeral things, and come back after this time, it's really unlucky!"

It seems that this old couple has a request for others, but what day has it been lately? The city lord loves to give birth to a birthday, but this is hindering others from interceding?

I saw the old woman kneeling down with a puff, pulling at the hem of the man's clothes or pants in the door, and begging bitterly.

"Official, please, please tell the county commander, our old husband and wife son are not early, only that grandson is left, he has not seen anyone for a day, and please ask the county commander to be merciful and send someone to find it!"

"It's all said, the lord went to the city lord's mansion early in the morning to congratulate and help, the brothers are busy patrolling the city, how can they have time to find your grandson for you!

The old man also knelt down, and the old woman burst into tears: "My grandson will be twenty years old this year, it is impossible for such a big person to disappear for no reason, official, we old couple beg you, someone finally saw my grandson wandering outside the city lord's mansion, please ......"

The man was completely impatient, kicked the old couple away, and shouted, "What kind of nonsense is this, if you want to die, you will go by yourself!"

As he cursed, he closed the door, and the old woman was kicked in the chest, and the old man rushed to help her, and burst into tears.

The kick was fast and urgent, Hong Tu didn't react, he hurriedly leaned over, and saw that the old woman was held in the arms of the old man, obviously injured by this kick, and she was already out of the way and in and out.

Hong teased and said "offended" to the old woman, and reached out to touch her pulse, she was worried about her grandson's affairs, her heart was depressed, and she was kicked hard, even a young man couldn't help it, let alone such a dying old man, his pulse was very weak.

The old man wanted to stop it, but when he saw Hong Tuo frowning and checking the pulse of his old wife, he couldn't help it and waited anxiously.

Hong Tuo secretly used aura to temporarily soothe the wound on the old woman's chest, and felt that her breathing began to be normal before he breathed a sigh of relief and let go of his hand.

"It shouldn't be a big deal, but you still need to eat something warm to nourish your body, and you can't stand too many mood swings when you're older. ”

The old man wiped his tears, thanked him again and again, and wanted to help the old woman up, but he was not young, and his mood was also up and down, and his body was a little weak, and he didn't get up for a long time.

Hong Tuo helplessly stretched out his hand to help the old woman up from the other side, and asked politely: "If the two old men don't mind, I'll send you back, right?"

The old man nodded gratefully, and it took a long time for him to shudder: "It's troublesome." ”

Although the old woman was very grateful, because Fang Cai's kick had not yet recovered, she could not speak for a while, so she could only nod at Hong.

Hong Tuo sent people all the way to the west of the city near the city gate, passed by the pharmacy on the way and went in to grab a few warm medicinal materials for the old couple, and got the old couple's continuous thanks.

The old couple's place is not big, a small square yard, divided into two huts and a kitchen, Hong Teasing helped the old woman to the bed to rest, and reminded how to decoction these medicines, and when the old couple was almost moved, they asked them when they went to report to the official.

It was also when he walked to the front of the street and saw the main entrance of the mansion that Hong Tuo found that it was not the mansion of a rich and noble family at all, but the back door of the county government of Jiankang.

The old woman's eyes turned red again, and after discussing with her wife, she told Hong Teasing everything.

Their husband and wife's son and daughter-in-law went early, leaving only the little grandson, who has been pulling since he was a child and is now so big, he is about to go to his daughter-in-law, and he has not come back until today after going out yesterday afternoon.

The old couple raised their grandson very well, after all, it was their only expectation, and there was never a situation where they did not return all night, that is, they occasionally went out for a long time and said a sentence in advance, so today the old couple couldn't sit still, and asked the neighbors to learn that the grandson had been to the gate of the city lord's mansion, and then no one had seen him, the city lord's mansion was where they could go in, and then they wanted to go to the county government to report to the official, who knew that the official had heard that he had disappeared for less than a day, and it was related to the city lord's mansion, and he didn't want to care about this matter, and it was easy to be seen and gossip from the front door, so the two couples were driven out from the back door。
