Chapter 42 42 people are born
Li Heng, who has been serving as the watcher of Qinghe Guan for so many years, is impossible without a background.
And Qing and Guanneng have been safe and sound in Huaxin County for so many years, which is enough to show Li Heng's ability.
So whether it is for his wife or his own future life. Zhang Xintai's attitude towards Li Heng must be taken seriously.
"That's right." Li Heng recalled Shao Quanhu's explanation, suppressed a trace of uneasiness in his heart, and squeezed out a smile.
"I just got some bad news, and I might ask you to come and see for yourself."
"Bad news?" Zhang Xintai was taken aback. Tell him this on this great day?
"It's related to the Yang family. If not, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to report to you." Li Heng explained.
He didn't know what Shao Quanhu wanted him to do to lead Zhang Xintai out, but no matter what, as long as he completed his task, the rest had nothing to do with him.
"Yanzi's house?" Zhang Xintai's face suddenly became serious.
"Just me?" He was a little puzzled.
"Alas" Li Heng had already prepared the draft and nodded. "It's best if you are the only one who knows, after all, that kind of thing. If it's publicized"
His words were vague, and Zhang Xintai immediately thought of something bad, and his expression became more solemn.
"Also ask senior to lead the way."
Immediately, he folded his fists, took off the red conspicuous festive coat from his body, hung it in the back room, and followed Li Heng out of the side door.
the other side.
Zhang Rongfang and a group of helpers have been busy all day, so they have time to sit down and rest and eat.
The flowing water mat was placed all day, and the neighbors came to eat, and even the beggars had to show some signs.
This is what it means to be happy.
On such a day, Master Zhang Xuan didn't know how much money was spilled.
In the courtyard of the new house, Zhang Rongfang and a group of people sat together around the brazier.
Everyone has a large pork bone with meat in his hand.
This is the braised big flesh and blood, just nibbling on it and eating the hot kumiss on the brazier.
In a wooden tub the size of a bathtub, there are also piles of seasonal fruits and vegetables.
Apple, banana, pear, hawthorn, gherkin, citrus, red, green, green, yellow and yellow, looks very appetizing.
Zhang Rongfang looked back, always feeling that the pot of things was a bit like something sad.
But there are too many people, and he can't tell, so he can only grab and eat by himself.
Holding the kumiss in the cup, raised his head to take a sip, and then took a big mouthful of braised pork.
This feels much better than the Taoist meal he ate in Qinghe Palace.
The light sweet wine taste overflowing from the kumiss is mixed with the milky fragrance, making it a very refreshing and refreshing drink.
The degree of is not high enough, so you can drink it casually.
The braised pork is also quite authentic, soft and glutinous, and fragrant.
Zhang Rongfang ate while listening to the bragging and farting of the people beside him.
The men sitting next to him were all in the transportation business in the county town, and they were friends Zhang Xintai made before.
The news is much better than the average person.
Several people chatted, from eating and drinking, chatting to Fengyue, from Fengyue to recent big news.
Just as he was talking, he talked about the incident of the Mi Gang being investigated.
"Hey, speaking of which, how big is the impact of the Mi Gang's possession of ordnance? The rice shop was closed for the most part. It happened that the mother-in-law wanted to buy rice, and they couldn't find the land. It was too inconvenient."
a man complained.
"There are two others in the east of the city that you can buy. Go over there. Xu Shangsheng opened it. They used to be from the Mi Gang, but they came out on their own and went it alone. This time they were not implicated." Another person said.
"That's not enough, when will this matter?"
"Don't worry, the Mi Gang will return to normal in a week at most." One person laughed.
"How to say?"
"The charge of concealing weapons sounds scary, but in fact, Mi has done a great job for the family. If you find two scapegoats, you'll be fine. The Shao family doesn't have much else, and they have a lot of money and food." The man explained road.
"This matter seems serious, but in fact, everyone who knows a little bit knows, how did the crossbow come from? Didn't the county governor sell it himself?"
"Yes, otherwise, the county governor's salary will be enough to spend every day drinking and drinking." Another person nodded.
"I have a brother who works as a car dealer. His carriage took people back from the county government office at night. The one who returned was the Sihai Restaurant of the Mi Gang." One person whispered.
"Tsk tsk. Look, am I right?"
"However, this matter has been exposed, and the rice gang is expected to be slaughtered severely. It is estimated that in a few days, the price of rice oil will increase again."
"It's also. It's up, up, up, it's up as the mother knows."
The topic of a group of people began to turn to the price comparison of rice prices, vegetable prices, and oil prices.
Zhang Rongfang was on the side, but he heard waves in his heart.
In the historical novels he had read in his previous life, it was mentioned that the explanation of possession of weapons was a big crime, but now
The corruption in Huaxin County has reached this level.
"Brother. Isn't there no one on top of the county governor's reselling of ordnance?" Zhang Rongfang couldn't help but patted the man who just broke the news on the shoulder.
"Turn? It sells more ruthlessly, so what do you control?" The man waved his hand, "Little Daoist, you are still young and have seen very little."
He sighed: "My Great Spirit swept the four directions, as long as it was on land, no one could stop the Great Spirit's iron cavalry, so that there were no frontier troops on the border, saving a lot of frontier defense military expenses.
But it is also because the military is too strong that in the foreign countries that have been killed, a large number of messy races have been captured and worked as slave craftsmen. In this way, there will be more and more food and drink. It's not us, it's all those who drive. "
"That's it." The other man clapped his hands and said, "Although we are divided into four classes, it is much better than expelling. The more things the Great Spirit Army stole back, the money. , the more you can buy. The more you enjoy the tricks?"
"Then we were on the ground far away from the sea, and there was no one around to threaten the garrison, and the ordnance was not waiting to be destroyed. Therefore, there are cases of secretly selling the ordnance for money.
Instead of leaving it there to eat ashes and spoil it, it is better to quietly exchange it for money. Anyway, it will be replaced with a new batch after a while. Old ones have to be destroyed.
I don't have much else, I have a lot of drive, and a lot of money! "
Zhang Rongfang also did not expect that the men of this world will be wise when they talk about national affairs.
"So it is." He looked in admiration, "You guys know a lot."
"A few respects!"
He raised his glass and took a gulp of kumiss.
The rest of the people also responded with a smile, holding up their glasses and drinking.
The atmosphere in the circle became warm, and they talked about where Daling was going to fight recently. The faces of each one are bright and shiny, and they are all in the posture of all the rivers and mountains under their mouths.
Zhang Rongfang was on the side, but he was worried about the Mi Gang.
‘If there is nothing wrong with the Mi Gang? Will it continue with the previous plan? ’
He thought it was all right, and his mood was much calmer, but he didn't expect to hear such a thing again.
Sitting in his seat, the more he thought about it, the more worried he became.
If the Mi Gang continues the previous attack plan, then the master and senior brother may still be in danger.
There are so many people now that the Mi Gang will not start immediately, but when some people disperse later, I am afraid it will be very dangerous
The more Zhang Rongfang thought about it, the more restless he became.
Immediately, with certainty in his heart, he raised his head and drank the kumiss in the cup.
"Brothers, I feel a little dizzy, I have to go to rest first."
"Go, go, the little Daoist's drinking ability is too bad, and it will be great to drink more often in the future. Haha."
"Xiao Daochang returned to his room and brought some more fruit, so as not to be hungry at night."
"Thank you very much." Zhang Rongfang thanked him again and again.
In the voices of a group of people, he walked towards the back room for the first time.
In the back room, there are rooms specially designed for guests to rest.
Similarly, senior brother Zhang Xintai should be in the back room at this time.
Zhang Rongfang quickened his pace and walked towards the inside quickly. He had to tell his senior brother about the possible sneak attack by the Mi Gang.
He just walked around in the back room, but he didn't find his brother.
Feel free to stop someone who has come to help on the way.
"Are you looking for the bridegroom officer? I just saw him going out with your watcher of Qingheguan. I don't know what's going on, but he seems to be in a hurry."
"Going out? It's so late? Where are they going?" Zhang Rongfang shuddered. Feeling a little off.
He immediately rushed out of the courtyard of the new house and looked left and right outside the door.
The streets were empty and there were few people.
‘The city gates must be closed at such a late hour, and it is impossible for them to leave the city. If I were the Mi Gang, the most likely thing I would do would be to arrest my senior brother and imprison him first. Wait until the city gates open at dawn.'
'No, if the corruption of the government is considered, it is not impossible to open the city gate at night. If I am the most likely to do it in the rice gang, it is definitely not in the city.'
Standing in front of the gate, Zhang Rongfang had a lot of thoughts, if the senior brother really got involved because of himself, and something happened
he.
"Rong Fang? What are you doing standing here?" Suddenly a familiar voice sounded from the side.
Zhang Rongfang looked sharply, just in time to see Zhang Xintai holding a small bag in his hand, looking at himself suspiciously.
"Senior Brother!" Zhang Rongfang's heart was suddenly relieved, and he hurried up to meet him.

South of the city, the inn.
"Why did you suddenly change your mind? Didn't you catch Zhang Xintai first?" Chen He looked towards Chen Zhihan in confusion.
He, Lao Ding, Chen Zhihan, the three of them were standing together at the back door of the inn.
"I just got the news that Zhang Xuan Laodao is going back to the mountain tonight. We must take this opportunity to act quickly, otherwise we will not have such a good chance to be placed in the future."
Chen Zhihan frowned.
"This old man, he didn't stay one more day for his son's engagement?" Lao Ding asked in confusion.
"Maybe he's used to being withdrawn. This time his son got engaged, and many people paid to invite them to join in the fun." Chen Zhihan said calmly.
He has already trained the talisman to the fifth rank, and the other two have also trained the black sand palm to the fourth rank. If the three of them work together, even if they are a prosperous sixth rank, as long as their martial arts are not too strong, they will only end up drinking and hating.
What's more, the old man Zhang Xuan is very old, only a fifth rank. It's not enough to watch.
"Go." With a wave of his hand, he took the lead and walked towards the inn.
The other two followed.
The three went up the stairs and quickly found the room where Zhang Xuan lived. The lights were flickering inside, and the sound of packing things could be faintly heard.
exchanged glances, Lao Ding raised his right palm, charged his whole body, and aimed at the door.
Boom!
He slammed the door open and rushed in.
The other two rushed into the room together without hesitation.
"Block the window!" Chen Zhihan let out a low voice. Look up.
“.”
A group of burly men in the room, seven or eight pairs of eyes fixed on him at the same time.
A strong sense of threat like needle **** stimulated the nerves of his whole body frantically, making him tremble with fright.
Old Daoist Zhang Xuan was standing in the middle of this group of people, holding a half-packed bag in his hand, and staring at this side dazedly.
He was taking the opportunity of his son's engagement to secretly gather with other leaders of the surrounding underground rebels to discuss the plan for the future.
There are a total of seven people, two of the fifth grade, four of the fourth grade, and one of the sixth grade. They are responsible for the sites of the six nearby counties, and it is time to hold a temporary meeting.
result
looked at Chen Zhihan and the three who rushed in.
The eyes of a group of rebel leaders gradually turned from stunned to dangerous.
They must not let outsiders know about their gatherings
Old Ding, Chen Zhihan, Chen He, the complexion of the three people turned from red to dark, and then gradually turned white and pale.
They seem to have seen something extraordinary.
