Qiang Jin Jiu - Chap 9
Since the beginning of the year, pedestrians in the downtown of Dudu have mostly wore paper-cut “noisy moths”. Zhengdan Festival is approaching, and ordinary people’s homes are vying for pastries and cooked meat. In the palace, half a month in advance, the materials for the Baiguan feast were purchased, and Guanglu Temple was so busy that it didn’t touch the ground.
Xiao Chiye turned the booklet into a “crass” and said: “This foreign official must enshrine the” ice respect “to the official. However, Pan Rugui is so prestigious that he has organized the list clearly and paid money only Peace. ”
“This is just the” broken silver “at the beginning of the year.” Lu Guangbai put tea foam, “I’ll give you a account. The little **** under Pan Rugui’s hands, the silver that he received in a year is far more than the two-year military garrison at the Panyu Qianhu Health Center. In the anniversary year, we use our troops. Every time the Ministry of the Army calls us to send troops, we ask our grandfather to sue our grandmother, and we ca n’t wait to be cousined by our dad. After the battle is over, we become the grandchildren of the turtle.
“The rich is the grandfather.” Xiao Chiye said with a smile.
“Rescue the car a year ago, we marched from the north to march in the snow. Soldiers and horses are exhausted, and iron riding equipment must be repaired before the spring. The money in the workshop owes money for a few days, and we need to use it everywhere.” Zhao Hui detailed I calculated it in my heart, and said, “Before entering the capital, I had to break away from the Beijuntun annual grain and save two silver. The days have to be carefully calculated. Our sons and daughters, do not dare to buy expensive clothes for the government every New Year. Pan Rugui Inner concubine, the money received has exceeded the total tax revenue of Duanzhou. Supervisor Yushi went to the place, all foxes and fake tigers, but what about it? I ca n’t even let the fart in Luan! ”
“Poor.” Lu Guangbai sighed, “I worry about silver every year. Not only was it that he entered the capital this time, but he didn’t dare to drag the house, and presented it to the cabinet early. Pan Rugui also honestly approved the red. , The silver should be able to dial down before leaving the capital. ”
“We have a big brother.” Xiao Chiye put the booklet and looked at Lu Guangbai, “how do you plan?”
“The emperor doesn’t see me.” Lu Guangbai said, “The Lu family couldn’t eat at the cricket. Eight people always regarded us as desert savages. The flower family even looked at it wrongly. But let me respect Pan Rugui, I have no money, and my family is so poor. I ca n’t open the pot. I can reclaim the army in other places. Anyway, it ’s an emergency turnaround method, but our border county, Huangsha Wanli, and the fields are not farmed. This time, 20,000 people ate on the road. Silver. I ’m not good at it. I am so sorry for the handsome Mrs. Qi, otherwise my soldiers will not be able to pass the concubine. But how much silver can I have? She is holding the dowry that the old lady had left for her! The soldiers are going to sell pants! The Ministry of Households fights Tai Chi with me every day. Why don’t you just hold my account and don’t dial money?
Lu Guangbai was unusually angry. He couldn’t help it, because Bianjun was guarded on the edge of the desert. He was the garrison who had the most dealings with Biansha cavalry except from the north. After a year of exhaustion, he ran to and fro. He lived under the machete, could not sleep for a few days, and never filled his stomach. He was pressing on him, and Saab had long been known as the poor man in the king. The rewards of his family never kept their hands, all of which were converted into silver to subsidize military needs.
Xiao Jiming was neatly dressed, and the girls went out. There were only four of them left in the room. Xiao Jiming brought a tea cup and took a sip, and said without hesitation, “In a good time this year, Zhengdan Baiguan Banquet. Qi Zhuyin should be here?”
Lu Guangbai said, “That’s right. I was sad at first, but I thought about it, just let them be dragged. Drag them to the coach and enter the capital, they should ask for blessing.”
Xiao Jiming said: “Now she eats the most in Xiu, and even the gangsters who put” Tiger Skin Money “[1] have to give her face. The previous account can be paid, but you ca n’t rely on her alone. Here. Bian County is important. Listening to the wind yesterday, the Ministry of Households wants you to recruit again this year. ”
Lu Guangbai touched the edge of the tea cup and said, “Recruitment? Don’t even think about it. There was something wrong in the six states of Zhongbo. They were afraid of death. They remembered that Bian County was not beaten by Biansha Twelve. Not enough. But can soldiers recruit, can money be given? I ca n’t afford to raise it, but this year I just put a knife on my neck, and I wo n’t do it. ”
Xiao Chiye suddenly sat upright and said, “Yes. In the past, the quickest allocation from the Ministry of Households was the military rations and rations in the six states of Zhongbo. This time the people were dead, not to mention the money, what about the food? At that time, we can’t take so much food. ”
The three remaining men looked at him.
Lu Guangbai said: “Silly boy, don’t forget. The grain was recovered, and the full complement was lost last year to the Lu Xun city. You can’t guess the reason for the shirk of the Ministry of Households. In recent years, the eight people have become eight camps, equipped Expenses are the best in Da Zhou. All the money is directly taken from tax and cash. If you think about the amount of two million, you personally understand that this account is crazy. Investigate, who dare to mention the Ministry of Housing? The treasury was empty. Last year, the 13 th city of Juexi suffered a locust plague. The real grain was not harvested. How can there be money for the disaster? Officials run private food relief. Jiang | Qingshan rescued hundreds of thousands of people for this incident, but was jealous of officials in Juxi. He heard that debt collection was blocked in front of his house. From the second official, the eighty-year-old mother in the family is still weaving and paying off the debts! I never give any more money, just to drive people to death. In the end, the old Haige played, and worked with the cabinet and Pan Rugui for half a month. Only then did I fill the vacancy barely. ”
Zhao Hui couldn’t help but say, “Say poor, but the bribes are large in number, and all those who do things are wearing their heads and belting their pants. It is better to come in this capital than to come, which makes people discouraged.”
It was snowing outside, but there was no New Year’s atmosphere inside. The mess is piled up, and the new elephants are all clouds of smoke floating on the surface. The wound was not healed, but he still had to cover it, and the pus was dirty. The snow came well, the cover was beautiful, the left and right sides could be invisible, and everyone was drunk and dreamed together.

Late at night, Pan Rugui sat on the couch with his eyes closed. The natural paper flower rests at his hand, which is convenient for him to wipe his hands after the setting is finished. Xiao Fuzi didn’t dare to come out, waited carefully on the foot pier, holding a pencil bag in his hand.
After half an hour, Pan Rugui breathed a long breath and opened his eyes. Xiao Fuzi immediately wrote, and Pan Rugui raised a few words in his palm.
Xiao Fuzi flattered, “The ancestors have recently got the true story of the emperor, and they have become more immortal. The grandchildren of Shicai looked at it, faintly rising with purple air!”
Pan Rugui wiped his hands and said, “Do you know why you can’t get into the department?
Xiao Fuzi said, “My ancestors hurt me.”
“It’s one thing to hurt you.” Pan Rugui threw the paper flower in Xiao Fuzi’s arms. “It’s another thing without a wink. The emperor realized for two years and there was no purple gas rising. I’m just a slave. How can I Go up first? Isn’t that overrun? ”
Xiao Fuzi handed hot tea to Pan Rugui, and said hippie with a smile: “The old ancestor is my lord, the old ancestor is my heaven. I saw the old ancestors settled in, just like seeing Tai Shang Laojun descending into the world! So much. ”
“Well.” Pan Rugui rinsed his mouth. “You’re fair enough to be filial.”
Xiao Fuzi grinned, next to Pan Rugui’s feet, and said, “This is the New Year’s Day, and I have to honor the old ancestors well. When I bought it a year ago, I saw a stunning beauty in Zhuangzi of King Chu! I asked about it and thought There is no need for the emperor. Honoring you is the top priority. ”
Pan Rugui said: “How amazing, can you still compare with Miss Three? Besides, isn’t that King Chu’s person, King Chu’s temperament, domineering and imperious, afraid that it won’t be easy to relax?”
Xiaofuzi said: “If King Chu is more expensive, can you be more expensive than the emperor? The emperor said nothing, shouldn’t it be worthy to honor the ancestors? Besides, don’t let this rest on your mind. I promise you to arrange it before the spring. Properly, you’ll see her then, if you don’t accept it, it’s her creation. ”
Pan Rugui set aside the tea cup and said, “It’s not anxious, I’m not a jealous person. Since you brought up King Chu, how about Xiao Er, who has a bad temper with him?”
Xiaofuzi stomped Pan Rugui and said, “Hey! Old ancestor, this second son Xiao is absolutely terrible. He entered the capital and has been eating and drinking with people since the first night! Today is nothing else! To do is to eat and have fun. King Chu’s group likes to play with him.
“That’s OK … but he is the Xiao family, and the emperor put him in the Yihuang Division too close, so people can not rest assured.” Pan Rugui thought for a moment, smiled suddenly, and said, “Our family is down I thought of a good place, just right to send him. Wearing shoes, I went to Minglitang to serve the emperor! ”
On the next day, there was a hundred official banquet on Zhengdan Festival. There was nothing on the table.
“Aye, have you been comfortably in these days?”
Xiao Chiye stopped peeling the tangerine and replied, “Return to the emperor, comfortable.”
Emperor Xiande turned to Xiao Jieming and said, “I want to go and think of it. It is Qu Cai who puts Ye Ye on Yiji. He is also a good boy who has been on the battlefield and stays in Yuqian. Ah Ye went to the banned army. The governor of the army was originally Gu Gu’an, but now he still has to manage the eight major camps. There is really no skill, let Ah Ye replace it. ”
Lu Guangbai frowned immediately.
The emperor princes were mixed in Yuqian. Whatever happened, the emperor could not turn a blind eye. What is the forbidden army? The embargo is now a duo, but is this a reward? Can this be called reward!
Lu Guangbai was about to get up, but saw Xiao Chiye salute.
“The Governor listens to the majesty and looks like a commander.” Xiao Chiye hanged Erlang and laughed, “Thank you Emperor!”
The old man in Huage laughed and said, “Emperor Shengming! Shizi, this is a hero who is a boy.”
Congratulations ebb and flow, Xiao Jiming smiled and looked at Xiao Chiye.
Lu Guangbai drunk his head, and said to Zhaohui on the side: “… This arrangement is clearly in the heart of both sides.”
Xiao Chiye ran away without a seat.
Hupeng dog friends wanted to congratulate him on promotion, and he took a meal with someone. After eating the third dress, people were shaking when they came out.
Chu King Li Jianheng is a few years older than Xiao Chiye, and it is a real jerk. He dragged Xiao Chiye’s sleeve before he came to the sedan, and said drunkly, “You’re going backwards! Well, the forbidden army, you don’t need to worry about patrolling, and you’re very leisurely. But Lulu can take the lead, and you don’t have to die if you are rich. Good things make your kid pick it up! Secretly! ”
Xiao Chiye also laughed, and laughed badly, he said, “Yeah, don’t you hurry and invite you to drink? Let’s get together and run rampant!”
“Yes, yes!” Li Jianheng patted Xiao Chiye’s shoulders vigorously. “Just this aspiration! Go to my house in a few days and I will let … to celebrate you again …”
Xiao Chiye looked at the sedan chair far away and turned on his horse. His horse is a breed of taming wild horses under the Hongyan Mountains. He is black and black, but his chest is white.
Xiao Chiye patted his horse forward, and the shops on both sides of the street had to light up. He raised his hand and said, “It’s off, don’t take it.”
The shop guys looked at each other and did not dare to rebel. The lanterns went out one by one, and there was only the dim moon and snow on the road.
Xiao Chiye made a whistle, and Hai Dong Qing Xiao in the night dived down with a sound. He struck horses, and the horses in the seat snorted and ran wildly.
The wind raged, Xiao Chiye’s wine fever was swept away. In the night he was like a sleepy beast that bumped around his head. He galloped in the deserted street, tearing his smile in the darkness, leaving only cold and lonely silence.
The steed did not know how long he ran, Xiao Chiye suddenly rolled down. He smashed into the snow and settled for a moment.
The horse hoofed and touched his head down. Hai Dongqing paused on his horse’s back, squinting his head and staring at him.
Xiao Chiye put up with his arms, throwing up his arms. After a long time, he got up and leaned against the wall. The bone between the fingers is a bit big, and I don’t know where it was dropped. He was looking in the snow, but someone whispered not far away and asked, “Who?”
Xiao Chiye ignored.
The flag of the embargo touched the lantern and said, “How dare you … late at night … sir?”
Xiao Chiye turned his head and said, “Recognize?”
The embargo flag shook his head honestly: “I don’t know who you are …”
“I’m your elder brother.” Xiao Chiye threw away the dirty big cock, and looked down to continue to find his finger. He whispered anxiously and said, “Give me the lantern, and you can get out.”
The embargo flag leaned cautiously and said, “Isn’t the second son? We’ve just got the order. It’s not clear yet, and the review is too early. You can come back tomorrow if you can …”
Xiao Chiye reached out, and the small flag passed the lantern. He said, “Where is it?”
Xiaoqi replied obediently: “It’s the side wall of Lidu, Zhao sin Temple.”
Xiao Chiye said, “It’s all up to you.”
Xiao Qi stepped back, and heard Xiao Chiye say, “Shen Zechuan is here? Inside the wall?”
“Yeah,” Xiao Qi said more and more, “people are locked in …”
“Let him out.”
The flag was stunned, and hurriedly said, “Where can it be! The governor can’t do it either! The emperor strictly orders …”
Xiao Chiye lifted the lantern and said, “I’ll let the army stop.”
Xiaoqi tentatively said, “Don’t kill or kill …”
“I **** asked him to sing a song!” Xiao Chiye suddenly broke the lantern and extinguished it lightly. He stood in the dark, his eyes darkened
