There is no need to rush back, when you arrive in Jiangzhu County, it is already dusk.

Jiang Ruisong, the head of the Jiang family, greeted him personally, and everyone was arranged to be stationed in the grange outside the city, and the group entered the city.

The spirit rhino shines back, not to mention the patrol cavalry camp, the regimental training camp has a trace of luck, and it gradually condenses from boiling, but it is even thicker.

"War training, the effect is really amazing" Ye Qing thought secretly, and arrived at the Jiang Clan's compound.

The last time I came, the Jiang compound was still a little shabby, and three hundred people from hundreds of households were crowded together.

Jiang's participation in the wine alliance has expanded a lot of influence in the past year and a half, and has also gained some practical benefits.

Jiang Ruisong saw Ye Qing looking at it, his face turned slightly red, and he stretched out his hand to lead it, Ye Qing didn't look at it much, and he could enter the hall.

Jiang Chen led the team behind, and a row of personal soldiers were accompanied by knives, especially Jiang Chen's qi was high, and his footsteps were sloppy, and he suddenly showed solemnity, Jiang Ruisong saw it, and sighed in his heart: "Jiang Chen, this nephew, has changed a lot after not seeing him for a year and a half, but it is his creation." ”

After serving tea and serving the melons in the well, Ye Qing said: "Jiang Chen, when you get home, why don't you go to see your mother?"

Jiang Chen said yes loudly, saluted the lord and the patriarch, and when he went out, he shouted: "Come two people, help me down." ”

The following people can't help but look at each other, a few steps to home, and still need to find someone?

Ye Qing saw Jiang Ruisong's dumbfounded, smiled, and said: "In the two battles, Jiang Chen's meritorious service is not small, rewarding 100 acres of land, 300 taels of gold, and 2 slaves and maids. ”

"Hey" Jiang Ruisong stood up in shock, and after being stunned, he realized that he had lost his temper: "So much, isn't it too thick?"

"It's not thick, everything is rewarded according to the family law and military law, this time, Jiang Chen wants to take his mother away, you are the patriarch, what do you think?

"Should, should" Jiang Ruisong immediately re-evaluated Ye Qing's harvest this time, this gold is enough to build a spacious courtyard, and a trace of remorse involuntarily appeared in his heart, and he didn't have anything to talk to Ye Qing at the moment and ask about the situation.

But in just a moment, an ox cart arrived at the door, and it was reported, and after a while, Ye Qing and Jiang Ruisong greeted them, and it was the county lord Bo who came over.

The lord has thin official eyes, but his face is full of smiles, and he bows first: "I've seen Bangyan Gong." ”

Ye Qing returned the salute, the main book is from the eighth grade, the order is below the county Cheng, above the county lieutenant, in fact, the second in command in the county, playing an irreplaceable role in the county.

This county lord Bo had a relationship with one side before, surnamed Chen, and smiled: "Lord Zhixian, I heard that the Lord returned with a great victory, and invited a special banquet, will the Lord come?"

The grassroots petty official's speech was straightforward, Ye Qing liked this, and responded with a smile: "I want to visit, I didn't have time to visit me last time, and when I return this time, I haven't passed by, and I can't help but meet the magistrate when I pass by, this is the proper meaning." ”

This is to thank the county commander for helping to escort the first batch of loot, the lord Bo was a little embarrassed, and shook his hand: "Observing the eight thieves who made the adults break the eight thieves, the nearby bandits were swept away, and we were frightened, we haven't thanked it yet."

"It's all within my part" Ye Qing smiled, and agreed to go to the county office, he was going to take Jiang Chen with him, but Jiang Chen visited his mother, so he was exempted.

The group rode horses or ox carts and drove over.

Jiang Ruisong looked at the ox cart in the distance, and couldn't help sighing: "The Lord Bo is invited, the man is a man."

It is said that when Ye Qing arrived at the county office, the county order greeted him in person, and the pro-soldiers and officials stayed outside, with their own seats, and only the main man Bo accompanied him into the inner courtyard.

There were not many people, the atmosphere at this banquet was relatively casual, and when it was used up, the county order ordered people to withdraw from the table, changed their faces and asked Wen about the battle this time, and said: "I heard that Bangyan Gong won a big victory this time, and he won a lot of cattle and sheep. ”

Ye Qing responded: "It's a lot, what's the matter, your county has some ideas?"

Seeing Ye Qing's gentle attitude, the county commander smiled: "Bangyan Gong, to tell you the truth, my Jiangzhu County is a poor county, I want to do something after taking office, but I suffer from insufficient conditions, and it is difficult to buy a large number of cultivated cattle, Lao Chen assists me in managing civil affairs, are you telling the truth?"

Lord Chen bowed thinly, and the county order turned his gaze to Ye Qing again: "I heard that among the cattle and sheep, there are many cultivated cattle, and the list of people said a price, I want to exchange it for a sweet potato." ”

Ye Qing was stunned, and saw Chen Zhubo say: "The adults mobilized the people in the county to harvest wild yams, piled up like a mountain, I am afraid that there are hundreds of thousands of catties."

Ye Qing couldn't help but applaud and laughed: "Your county really has a heart, so let's do it, my private farming cattle cost about 300 heads, in addition to these, according to the market price, how many wild potatoes you have, how about it?"

Originally, the grassland did not raise ploughing cattle, but after the Northern Wei Dynasty became the master, in order to trade with the Central Plains, they raised ploughing cattle and sold them to the interior every year.

The county magistrate suddenly laughed: "Bangyan Gong, refreshing, this county is really sincere"

After a few more words, seeing that Ye Qing's face was a little tired, he didn't bother much, and sent him away later.

The soldiers had almost finished these banquets, and when they saw the lord coming out, they hurriedly followed, not to mention, in fact, the camp outside the city also had arrangements for killing cattle and slaughtering sheep.

The blood and dark side of killing must always be released, but the current marching wartime regulations do not allow camp prostitutes, this time some guards were left in the camp for special inspections, and some private kiln services were banned, Ye Qing always thought that camp prostitutes were a serious damage to morale and combat effectiveness, only wine and food.

When the night breeze blows when you go out, you have some strength to drink, and when you look up, the night sky is dark and transparent, the stars are bright, and it stretches for eternity, according to the inherent trajectory of circulation, and it has existed for a long time, or it may continue to exist forever......

Ye Qing didn't melt away the wine, soothed his nerves, and enjoyed the taste after this victory.

Zhou Ling followed silently, squatting down in front of the horse stake at the door, with long reins wrapped around it, this kind of marble dwarf pillar became smooth under the perennial friction, and it was very smooth to untie.

A pair of black dragon horses in the herd were particularly tall and eye-catching, and they had been waiting impatiently, and as soon as they were freed from their restraints, they happily vibrated their hooves and neighed, and rubbed their necks with each other, urging them to go.

Zhou Ling smiled and touched the huge horse head that rubbed over, and helped Ye Qing to get on the horse: "Is the son going back to the barracks?" or staying at the Jiang family?"

"Stay in the Jiang family, it's rare to come over once, you may be a loyal vassal in the future, and you can't have a share......" Ye Qing rubbed his eyebrows, there were no outsiders at this time, so he couldn't help but complain: "Tomorrow I guess I will have to drink again, and it's all strong wine, and I'm going to vomit when I drink it, I know what it means to be cocooned and self-bound......"

The night breeze blew quietly, and in early autumn, it was already a little cool.

The "clicking" horses' hooves stepped over the bluestone slabs, and the sound echoed in the empty streets, mixed with casual conversations, with a little warmth in the loneliness.

I heard Zhou Ling's serious voice: "Then don't drink it...... son"

"Three glasses is the limit, Lingling really hurts your son-in-law, so exercise the amount of alcohol to block the wine for me......"

Sitting behind the horse, the girl in black blushed and shook her head: "I don't know how to drink, I'll be dizzy, Sister Qianqian has exercised a little......

Saying this, her tone was not as calm as usual, and she hesitated again: "Why don't I try to drink a little on weekdays?"

"Ha, you're serious, you're a stupid girl again......"

"Childe, you're teasing people again......"

"Speaking of which, Lingling, do you know what the stars in the sky are......"

"Zhilu Dao, it is the great god of heaven......"

Under the starry sky, the voices fade away in the streets and alleys, casual conversations, scattered in the night breeze, and the most unheard of them.

The Jiang family was still lit at the door at this time, waiting for Ye Qing to come over, because they had already used the banquet, they held a tea party, the patriarch Jiang Ruisong personally entertained him, and several core children accompanied the banquet, Jiang Chen did not go to the wine banquet in Zhixian County just now, and they all came out to accompany him at this time.

After the beginning of the greetings, it was Jiang Zinan who asked, she was a continuation of the original bond between the two families.

And since he has passed to the patriarch's room, according to the strict clan law in the mountains, so that the stepdaughter of the same clan is more valued than Jiang Ruisong's own daughter, Jiang Ruisong will inevitably ask about the current situation, or the people in the clan will think that he is not humane.

At this time, seeing Jiang Ruisong talking about it, his expression was a little worried, Ye Qing smiled secretly, and patiently replied: "Zinan is now the deacon of my family, and she is very busy with management, I am very relieved about her, but in the past, I ...... Sometimes it's too particular and easy to think too much...... I went back and said that as soon as she said that there was something taboo about contacting her family, I asked her to write more to you in the future. ”

"Where is ......" Jiang Ruisong was a little frightened and happy.

At this time, the gap between the status of the two families is widening, and there is gradually a meaning of vassal, Jiang Ruisong's attitude is different, Jiang Chen can see it, his face is a little embarrassed, he has gone out to see the world, and the patriarch is a little rustic.

Ye Qing smiled secretly, judging from the contact between the two generations, this small clan in the mountains has the characteristics of re-alliance and oath, and it is used to make people feel at ease, it is more earthy than the Ye family, and there are many stubborn to the point of ridiculousness.

After talking about Jiang Zinan, Ye Qing drank two more glasses of wine, and asked about the current situation of the Jiang family, which are all trivial matters, but they must be connected with feelings, and it is impossible for people to be close to each other for pure interests, or it is very boring.

As in all political scenes, it looks like some nonsense, but it's not okay not to say it, but fortunately most of this kind of thing is handed over to the Xiangtian Hall.

Ye Qing was still very patient, and reaffirmed his promise: "You and I have known each other for two generations, you can contact Ye Mansion if you have something, even if I am not there, it will be the same when I am not there, there is a system of Xiangtian Hall to deal with it, your daughter is an official deacon, don't have any scruples, many things, I dare not say that I will definitely solve them, and I will definitely give a sincere answer." ”

"Good, good. Jiang Ruisong responded continuously, his heart was overjoyed, the people in the mountains were heavy, he didn't dare to say much if he was in trouble, Ye Qing made it clear that many people in the family were very convenient, and there was no need to be restrained in the expansion of Mangkhut County.

"It's better than a cup for the two Qin and Jin" Ye Qing toasted and toasted everyone, and the atmosphere in the banquet suddenly melted.
