Chapter 275 (Prefect Zhan Jing)
Zhang Yu was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Sister, go back to your master and wait for me, and when I finish this matter, I'll pick you up, okay?"
Zhang Qing'er said happily: "Is it true?" Zhang Yu smiled slightly: "Naturally, it's true" Zhang Qing'er, who was a little happy, suddenly sank, and Zhang Yu was stunned again, thinking that he had said the wrong thing again.
I heard Zhang Qing'er say in a deep voice: "Brother wants to leave me alone?" Zhang Yu hurriedly explained: "You and my brother and sister got together so easily, how could my brother leave you?"
Zhang Qing'er said: "Since you won't leave me, why do you want me to go back?" After a pause, he said with a firm expression: "Since my brother has made up his mind, the little sister is bound to follow my brother to the ends of the earth."
What Zhang Yu did was extremely dangerous, and he didn't know how to do it, and this time he decided to explore the nest of the Dongying people, there is no doubt that it was a life of death, he didn't let Zhang Qing'er go with him, he was afraid that if there was a case, he would regret it.
Zhang Yufang wanted to explain, Zhang Qing'er had already gotten up and left, he stretched out his hand to call Zhang Qing'er back, but he opened his mouth and didn't say anything.
sighed helplessly, raised his head and looked up at the sky, only to see the half-circle crescent moon, hiding in the clouds, as if he was watching all the time, those people under the sky who were vying for fame and fortune, fighting openly and secretly, and deceitful people.
Zhang Yu muttered: "The eldest husband has something to do and something not to do...", and stayed for a long time, got up and went back to the room.
By the window of a room in the inn, there was also a shadow standing at this time, it was Zhao Lingwei, she saw the scene in her eyes, and her heart was also full of mixed feelings, her thoughts were tumbling, and no one knew what she was thinking.
The next day, Ling Xiao and his entourage, packed their bags early in the morning, according to yesterday's discussion, Zhao Yuanming thought that the journey would be much faster by water, and several people had no opinion.
Yesterday, Zhang Yu saw that Lei Da was reliable, and he was an old acquaintance, so he asked him to make a move with him, Lei Da was happy, so everyone had a meal, except for Zhang Yu's yellow horse, all the other horses were sold, Chu Liancheng told Ma Gui again, and then went straight to the dock.
When Zhao Lingwei took out the silver taels of white flowers, he saw that everyone was holding a blade, and he was not an ordinary person, Huang Fang bit and compromised, so he brought a lot of application materials, Zhang Yu led the horse to the boat, and the bow led a man, carrying Zhang Yu and his party towards Jinan Mansion.
After more than half a month, they arrived at Jinan Mansion, fortunately, they were safe all the way, which made the bow of the boat breathe a sigh of relief, and everyone did not know the specific location of Penglai, so they discussed going to Jinan Mansion to inquire about it before making plans.
So after Ling Xiao and his party paid the bow of the boat, they landed in Jinan Mansion, which was quite close to the Taishan faction, Zhao Lingwei had the heart to go back to the mountain to see the recent situation, but knew that this was not the time, but put away the mind of going back to investigate.
It was already dusk when they landed, so after everyone inquired clearly, they rested for the night and decided to rush to Qingzhou by land the next day.
The next day they bought a horse for each of them, and when they had found their way, they set out eastward, and the group traveled by day, and by night they would find a house to spend the night, and if there was no one to build a fire in the woods, they would spend the night.
In this way, it took nearly ten days, and after inquiry, they arrived in Qingzhou, and then entered the city, and the scene in the city shocked Zhang Yu and others.
The streets were crowded with people, even to the point of rubbing shoulders one after another, and its lively scene was no less than that of any big town that Zhang Yu and others had visited.
When Zhengda was puzzled, he only heard the sound of "bell bell bell...", and then there were bursts of cheers, Zhang Yu and his party looked at each other with doubts on their faces, and Zhao Lingwei also wanted to see the excitement.
Before they got closer, they saw a crowd of people walking, and suddenly separated from each other, and Zhang Yu and the others had to stand aside with everyone and look at each other at the same time.
I saw that after the crowd separated, two people came over one after the other, and the one in front of him was a tall man, he was wearing a square black hat, wearing a blue coat, carrying a big gong, walking a few steps with a smile on his face, knocking a few times; he was followed by a horse, and immediately sat upright, wearing a red official uniform, wearing a black gauze hat, with a thin face and a thin waist, and thin bones, but there was a sharp air in his eyes that did not match the officialdom, and he knew that this was an official of the imperial court at a glance.
With a smile on his face, he nodded his head to the people who couldn't stop bowing his hands, only to see that everywhere he looked, the crowd standing on both sides couldn't stop shouting, "My lord, it's hard work..."
Zhang Yu and the others looked at each other, their faces were dazed, several people were empty, they found an inn to sit down, and ordered a few signature dishes.
Zhao Lingwei called the shopkeeper to her and asked, "Man, why are you so busy on the street here?"
The guy glanced at Zhao Lingwei and his party and said with a smile: "Yo, the masters must have just arrived in Qingzhou, right?"
Zhao Lingwei nodded, and the guy seemed to be very proud and smiled: "Since the masters are from other places, I don't know the inside story is also excusable."
Zhang Yu said: "How can you say this" The guy said: "This King Yan rebelled, the court itself is difficult to protect, the Qingzhou government loots the people's fat and ointment every day and says that it is used as military food for the imperial court, we little people dare to be angry and dare not speak, and life is simply impossible to live"
Speaking of this, he asked Zhang Yu rhetorically: "Master Hak, you said that you want to go on like this, what should we do if we ordinary people have no way to live...?"
These words stopped Zhang Yu, he was also living a plain and happy life, but he was also cornered by the officers and soldiers, Zhang Yu shook his head.
I listened to the guy continue: "At that time, there were countless people who starved to death in Qingzhou City, and countless people were killed by officers and soldiers, until Zhan Jing, Lord Zhan led the villagers into the official yamen, killed the court officials, and occupied the yamen.
Zhang Yu was surprised: "This is simply the government forcing the people to rebel" The guy said: "Isn't that right?
Zhao Yuanming said: "According to what you say, even if Lord Zhan is capable, it will develop into such a prosperous scene in just a few years, is it possible that he will be able to cast spells?"
The guy laughed: " That's not, after Lord Zhan occupied the Yamen, everyone elected him to be our county official, although the Yamen got a lot of food, but it was only a drop in the bucket, could not solve the fundamentals, and also lost Lord Zhan for the sake of everyone, and then took everyone to capture several counties around them, robbed them of gold and silver, this matter was known by the imperial court, sent the general of the court to collect, but were defeated by Lord Zhan, and the court had to send hundreds of thousands of tons of grain and also named Lord Zhan as the prefect of Qingzhou, it was a lot of people who fled from other places after hearing the news, they rushed to Qingzhou, which was only half a yearIt has come to this day," and everyone understood when they heard it.
