Nanwang City is much bigger than Tuman City.
Rather than saying that this is an important border town, it is more like Shenzhen.
The business travel is endless, the population is dense, and the industry and commerce are extremely developed.
It is not difficult to explain why the fortress system including Cuiliu Fort is so slack. This Yinlang County, where there is no half of the atmosphere of a frontier county, is simply the rich and prosperous Xiaojiangnan of Dayan.
Zheng Fan closed the window and stopped looking at the hustle and bustle of the street.
When the new official took office, no one set fire to Zheng Fan except the veteran Tie Sanzhu;
But I still have to go see my boss.
Zheng Fan didn't intend to be Dayan's lone minister, at least he didn't have that interest right now, so he brought two boxes of silver ingots with him this time.
Xiao Dahai, the commander-in-chief of Nanwang City, is the object of Zheng Fan's visit this time.
Since he came with money, he couldn't be so fanfare. Zheng Fan simply brought Fan Li and A Ming, a total of three people, and first found an inn in Nanwang City to settle down, and then he was going to see the situation and vote. famous post.
"Squeak"
The door of the inn was pushed open, Fan Li walked in with a lot of food in his hand, and said cheerfully:
"My lord, Beihou cakes, Beihou fritters, Li's buns"
Although the lineage of Zhenbei Hou has been stationed in the north of the town for a hundred years, its popularity in Yinlang County is extremely high. After all, the Li family's ancestral home is Yinlang County.
Because of this, many snacks in Yinlang County are related to Zhenbeihou or Li's family. It's a bit like in the snack shops of later generations, you can always see the bulletin board saying that Qianlong ate my family's food when he went to the south of the Yangtze River. What and what is full of praise.
Zheng Fan took two Li family steamed buns from Fan Li, and said while eating:
"In the afternoon, we will go to vote for famous posts."
There are still a lot of things waiting to be dealt with at Green Willow Castle. We can't let everyone live in tents all the time. Is this here to get promoted and get rich, or to escape?
Ah Ming didn't eat, and was still trimming his nails patiently. After hearing what Zheng Fan said, he nodded.
"You don't want to eat?"
Zheng Fan remembered that Ah Ming even ate Maoxuewang in the past, but now he feels a little out of this world.
Ah Ming smiled and said:
"Well, thank you Lord for your concern, I can carry it for many days with a full meal."
As he spoke, A Ming subconsciously licked the corner of his mouth.
"Don't overeat, try to eat regularly."
"yes."
Ah Ming nodded in response, and then continued to trim his nails.
"Should I change my clothes?"
Zheng Fan pointed to the sweater on his body.
Because of the gathering of Husbands in Beifeng County, it doesn't matter how you dress up, but Yinlang County is a bit "simple and simple".
"I'll look for it."
Ah Ming got up, rummaged through the packages of the three people, found a white gown, and handed it to Zheng Fan.
Dayan is still black, but because Yinlang County is close to the Qian Kingdom, it is inevitable that it will be contaminated with a little "literary style". The scholars or family members of Dayan here also like to wear a clean white gown or robe when they go out.
The clothes were prepared by Si Niang for Zheng Fan before she came, because according to the plan, she would stay in Nanwang City for at most two days, and then go back after making good friends, so she didn't bring extra clothes.
After changing his clothes, Zheng Fan opened his arms and admired himself.
Fan Li, who had just put the last piece of Beihou cake in his mouth, looked at Zheng Fan and smiled silly;
"Ali, how are you doing, do you look like a scholar?" Zheng Fan asked.
Fan Li nodded vigorously,
road:
"Like a funeral."
"" Zheng Fan
"Actually, are you really mourning?"
At the gate of the General Military Mansion of Nanwang City,
White lanterns were hung all over the place, and the servants standing at the door were all dressed in white clothes, and the guests who came to express their condolences kept coming in and out.
Zheng Fan stood in front, A Ming stood beside Zheng Fan, and Fan Li stood at the back carrying two boxes of silver ingots.
"A Ming."
"Um."
"Go to the nearby merchants and ask, who died in the General Military Mansion."
"Yes, my lord."
After a while, A Ming came back and said calmly:
"My lord, it was Xiao Dahai who died. It is said that he died of illness last night.??He nodded slightly politely.
"Disrespect, disrespect!"
After all,
? Zuo Jiqian got up again and saluted Zheng Fan.
road:
"The Hou family has suppressed the barbarians for a hundred years, but all the soldiers of Dayan look up to me!"
"Brother Zuo, please be polite, be polite."
Zuo Jiqian sat down again, and immediately spoke again:
"Brother Zheng, as far as I know, many other forts have recently sent new garrisons. I feel that the imperial court intends to reorganize the defense line of Yinlang County. It is planning to go south"
Zheng Fan stretched out his hand, patted Zuo Jiqian on the shoulder, and said meaningfully:
"Brother Zuo, you and I are both soldiers, not those scholars."
"Brother Zheng said yes, what he said was yes, it was me, Meng Lang."
At this time, Zheng Fan saw a group of guests coming out of the mourning hall after paying their condolences.
"Brother Zuo, let's go and offer incense to Lord Chief Soldier first, and we'll find a wine shop to discuss in detail later."
"Okay, it's exactly what I want."
Zheng Fan and Zuo Jiqian walked towards the mourning hall. When they entered, they saw a tall and thin man comforting the widow and dutiful son. Behind the tall and thin man stood more than a dozen elderly people.
Zuo Jiqian lowered his voice and said to Zheng Fan:
"That person is Mr. Lin, the magistrate of Nanwang City, and he is surrounded by the patriarchs of the nearby big clans."
Zheng Fan nodded, and went up to collect incense with Zuo Jiqian.
The mourning hall is very large,
A fine sandalwood coffin is placed in the center.
Perhaps it was because there were too many guests who came to express their condolences, and the Yan people were not very interested in etiquette and rules. Therefore, in order to pursue efficiency, incense tables were placed on all sides of the coffin.
It is equivalent to increasing the number of security checkpoints from one to four, which is convenient for the flow of people.
But even so, the people standing by and waiting to offer incense still surrounded the mourning hall several times.
Especially the magistrate, who was still doing a show for the people, and was accompanied by the patriarchs of so many nearby clans, which hindered the evacuation of people.
However, no one dared to go up to urge them, and even had to cooperate with their expressions beside them.
When the prefect is serious, everyone must be serious, and when the prefect smiles, everyone must smile to the same extent.
Zheng Fan was so smoked that his head was dizzy, and he felt a little regretful. He knew that he would come in and wander around for a couple of laps before leaving.
At this time, A Ming, who had been standing behind Zheng Fan, suddenly put his mouth next to Zheng Fan's ear, and said softly:
"My lord, there is a voice in the coffin."
Zheng Fan's eyes were fixed immediately, he tilted his head slightly, and said:
"you sure?"
"Sure."
Excluding the unrealistic possibility that Mr. Zongbing's family members deliberately threw some of Mr. Zongbing's pet dogs or cats into the coffin to accompany him,
That can only mean one thing
Zheng Fan suddenly felt what was going on in this world. He was in the north, and it was understandable that the barbarians liked to play with corpses. Why did he encounter corpse fraudsters when he went to the south?
"If I had known earlier, Liang Cheng would have come with me."
Zheng Fan joked.
Zombies meeting zombies are like fellow villagers meeting fellow villagers, and they can always chat a few words.
However, at this moment,
The mutation happened suddenly!
"boom!"
There was a loud bang,
The coffin lid suddenly bounced into the air,
Everyone in the mourning hall shouted immediately,
Immediately,
A hand lifted from the coffin,
Holding a ball-like thing on the palm, there are many densely packed pores on it.
Without waiting for everyone to react,
There was a "click" sound inside the ball,
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!!!!"
Countless thin needles shot out from the ball to the surroundings!
At the critical moment, Ah Ming grabbed Zheng Fan's shoulder and pulled Zheng Fan back, while he took the initiative to stand in front of Zheng Fan.
"Ah!!!"
"Ah!!"
"Ah!!"
In the mourning hall, there were countless screams.
Zheng Fan also felt that A Ming's body trembled several times in front of him. Obviously, he also got several injections.
"Hiss"
In the midst of chaos in the mourning hall,
Ah Ming first took a breath,
Later, he deliberately turned his head to look at Zheng Fan who was blocked behind him and protected him,
asked:
"My lord, I didn't hear what I said just now, can you say it again?"
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Thanks to Siyan for becoming the 54th leader of "The Devil Comes"!
Well, besides, driving once in a while can cultivate one¡¯s sentiments, so please don¡¯t drive too much in the barrage. Originally, the names of Yinlang County and Green Willow Fort Long really didn¡¯t want to use words to explain it
Well, how about writing more useful barrage, knock on the blackboard!??¡¡±
