Chapter 71: Documents and Documents (17) (4k2 in 1)
The Changshui Army's military garrison city was newly built and could accommodate eight thousand sergeants, plus thousands of support personnel. In addition, it also had a school yard, warehouses, stables and other facilities. It was basically a small city.
In fact, just a few months after the construction of Tuncheng, many corresponding small markets have already appeared nearby. There are many liquor stores, prostitutes and the like. Even the eastern outer perimeter of Dongdu City has been seriously stimulated, resulting in
There have been many changes.
However, all this was obscured by the arrival of hundreds of thousands of servants.
In the early morning, Zhang Xing took the remaining five people of his squad to the gate of Juntun City calmly, and then began to repair. At this time, the official servants of Jing'an Taiwan who arrived later were already making breakfast, hot water, horse feed, etc.
All ready... There is no way, Cao Zhongcheng's name is still very useful here, even many of their generals and officers were ordered by the emperor's uncle himself, and they dare not neglect it.
Zhang Xing didn't mention what happened last night to anyone. Even Qin Bao only saw Zhang Xing coming over with a knife at the third watch. The other four people didn't even see anything strange at all, and just followed Zhang Baishou back quietly.
, and then rest quietly.
"Xiao Gu."
Zhang Xing's mind has long been bored by what happened last night. Now he is even in the mood to lie on the hammock after breakfast and chat with familiar servants. "How did you become an official?"
servant?"
"I'll tell you the truth, Sange Zhang." Xiao Gu, who was adding firewood next to him, turned around and responded in embarrassment. "I was originally an official slave. I committed a crime at home and was copied by the Ministry of Punishment. About four years ago, the prince passed away and he was granted amnesty.
He became an official servant."
"Have you saved enough money?" Zhang Xing thought thoughtfully.
Official servants are completely different from official slaves. The former is a profession with lower social and personal status. You can get money for working. Generally speaking, you can use the money to redeem yourself at any time and become an ordinary registered person; while official slaves, refer to the previous Xiaoyu
, On the surface, he looks decent, but in fact, he is more than an animal.
"I've saved enough already." Xiao Gu seemed a little shy.
"Then why didn't you redeem yourself?" Zhang Xing was completely puzzled. Even official servants were discriminated against.
"The main thing is that I have no place to go after I redeem myself." Xiao Gu felt helpless. "On the contrary, I can stay here in Jing'an Terrace, where I can have food, drink, money, and don't have to worry about being oppressed. I'm better than the good people in Nancheng."
Too many... I just want to stay here and wait a few years to have enough money to go out and be independent."
Zhang Xing suddenly realized...this means that in addition to class, we also need to look at regions and departments. We cannot rely on one system to rigidly analyze it.
In fact, Xiao Gu must be lucky. He can work as an errand in a place like Jing'antai, where almost all social elites are members, and he is decent and clean. But if it were in the military camp city, it would be different. Like this
Young and handsome soldiers, anything can happen when they are rude; but this is not the worst, the worst is to be given to local official servants, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the death of an official servant is no different from an official slave.
Even far inferior to the official slaves of Dongdu.
The official slaves in Dongdu were provided with free clothing and medicines all year round, and if they died too many, the official in charge would fine them a salary.
However, Zhang Baishou's mind soon wandered elsewhere. What Xiao Gu said just now about the prince's death aroused his unreasonable associations.
Besides, Zhang Xing has been in Dongdu for more than half a year, and he has known some things for a long time, but thinking about it from another angle at this time, it has a different meaning. That is, what is the saint in Ziwei Palace doing with his life like this?
This saint was the second emperor of the Wei Dynasty. During his reign, his father, the late emperor, destroyed the two main rivals, Dong Qi and Nan Chen, leaving him with a man who dominated the world.
The complete imperial empire of 1988, and this empire was also financially wealthy and had excessive warehousing... The most famous saying of the late emperor was, why did he keep cutting taxes and taxes, but his warehousing was always increasing?
After inheriting such a legacy, no matter whether you lie down and sleep straight, or drink in the wine pond or in the meat forest, it will not cause the world to collapse.
Not to mention, the current saint is by no means devoid of achievements and capital. He is recognized as a literary, Taoist and military strategist. He was one of the commanders when he destroyed Nanchen in the early years, and he once ruled in Jiangdu. It was because of this
After his meritorious deeds are completed, he becomes the heir apparent and becomes the crown prince.
In other words, this saint's achievements and abilities were obvious to all even from a young age.
After he succeeded to the throne, he successfully split the Wu clan, which was difficult to control across the desert, and the Northern Wilderness even became a vassal. Although the two expeditions against Dongyi failed, for now, Dongyi is still fighting on thin ice.
It only took the Wei Dynasty half a year to digest the defeat.
Internally, although clan politics is a huge problem, if nothing else, just a few years after he ascended the throne, he successfully moved the capital from Guanxi to the Eastern capital, and got rid of the influence of veteran ministers, as well as the rapid suppression of Yang Shen's rebellion.
It is enough to show that the imperial power is rising in an orderly manner.
Even going a step further, talking about an inner level... This saint is a little too lucky right now. He doesn't have to worry about extending his life for decades because of his cultivation, and causing turmoil in the royal family, because he is so lucky that even the prince is dead.
.
He died at the age of twenty-seven or twenty-seven, not too old to cause estrangement between father and son, not too early, leaving behind three imperial grandchildren who were still young, but definitely of the direct lineage. With these three
The little emperor's grandson was here, and as soon as the saints in the Ziwei Palace expressed their opinions, the concubine princes became the princes of Taiping honestly, and no one made any unnecessary moves.
So, back to the original question, what is this saint doing and what is he pursuing?
It's not that Zhang Xing didn't think of Emperor Sui Yang, but at present, this saint really hasn't reached that level, and even if he really looks like him, he still feels guilty, because Emperor Sui Yang is such a weird thing, if you don't do it to the end
On the first step, no one dares to recognize it!
This made Zhang Sanlang very embarrassed.
You think it's bad, it seems that the feudal society cannibalizes people, it's hard to say that the world will change color, and then we start preparing to do big things from today; you think it's not bad, from the second expedition to Dongyi to the current large-scale construction, there is something vague about it.
...This is really embarrassing.
Is it flexion or extension?
Especially when you are getting better and better, especially when someone is willing to bend and stretch with you, should you continue to work on copywriting to wait for the right time?
After thinking wildly for a long time, Zhang Xing ended up sleeping with his head up like the others. It was not until noon that he was awakened by a movement.
"What?"
Zhang Xing stared blankly at Xiao Gu who called him, who looked obviously nervous.
"Luo Zhushou has brought people here. He wants to see Brother Zhang... he is very aggressive."
Zhang Xing was confused for a moment, but when he stood up, he pressed the compass around his waist and tightened it slightly, but he was relieved. It was not that he didn't think about the consequences when he used the compass, but after last night's Jian Jia Cang Cang, he didn't care at all.
Already.
Even at this time, most people are calm.
He didn't believe that Taishang Laojun was so outrageous. How could he actually be in trouble if he saved people like this? If this was the case, it could only be said that the law of heaven had collapsed, and then he could do whatever he wanted.
"I've seen Luo patrolling."
Zhang Xing saluted respectfully, and there was nothing wrong with it. "May I ask Inspector Luo why he came here so suddenly, and why do you want me to explain it to you?"
"Zhang San." Luo Fang is Zhu Shou of the first patrol team, and he is more senior than Bai Yousi. The key is that he is the first adopted son accepted by Cao Zhongcheng, and he has a special status in Jing'an Taichung. At this time
When he came to see Zhang Xing, he had a strange look on his face, as if he felt a little regretful. "Don't blame me for being unkind, I only came here after getting a witness certificate..."
"Inspector Luo, please tell me."
More and more people were surrounding him. Qin Bao stood on one side with his sword in his hand, and some of his group flew away to ask for reinforcements, but Zhang Xing remained calm.
Luo Fang looked at the horses galloping towards the bank of Yishui and frowned slightly: "Zhang San, I personally captured the witnesses and came to confront you. It is not a matter between two patrol groups... it is a serious business matter."
.”
"Then please ask Inspector Luo for a quick confrontation." Zhang Xing urged instead.
"That's exactly what I mean." Luo Fang turned around, revealing a man in short clothes who was in a mess, wearing a hood and only one shoe. The latter was already shivering from the cold, and he was obviously a prisoner.
The captured servant. "I caught this guy on the other side of the Yishui River. I didn't think much about it... But just after I sent him back here, this guy accidentally knew that he was going to be beheaded. He lost control of himself on the spot and said instead
I want to report it, saying that there is someone in the Jinyi patrol who rescues these servants...in exchange for their lives."
Zhang Xing shook his head: "Inspector Luo, this is too ridiculous."
"I know." Luo Fang recalled coldly. "I wanted to chop him with a knife, but what he said unexpectedly fit some circumstances, which made me suspicious... He said that I caught him yesterday evening.
About ten miles downstream from the location, a tall Bai Shou found the reed swamp where he and a group of people were hiding. They made a lot of noise at that time, but Bai Shou ignored him at all and instead used the ice-making technique in his practice.
In front of them, a bridge was built across the river and a group of them were allowed to escape across it."
At this point, without waiting for Zhang Xing to say anything, Luo Fang suddenly reached back and pulled off his mask, and then asked the servant coldly: "Is that this person?"
Zhang Xing met this person without fear. He was a middle-aged man about forty years old. His whole body was shaking, covered with dirt and blood stains. His face was also a little sallow, and his eyes were full of...
Bloodshot...all in all, he is an extremely ordinary fugitive.
The servant looked at Zhang Xing and trembled for a moment, but after just a moment he nodded heavily: "It's him, it's him."
Zhang Xing was relieved and directly spread his hands: "He deliberately framed the case in order to survive... I did lie down by the river yesterday to test the possibility of ice, but I was worried that it would freeze at night and it would be difficult to control the situation... It is possible that he was there
I was seen in the reeds and even across the river."
"well said."
Luo Fang sighed. "In any case, you are a serious Bai Shou in Jing'antai, and this man is a fugitive soldier. I am a Zhu Shou who was formed by him. If I use one-sided words to punish you, don't talk about your home patrol."
The brothers in your second group will be furious and even get angry. Even the brothers in our group will find my Luo Fang’s behavior ridiculous... But Zhang San, he also said that you used reeds, mud and
The pontoon bridge made by mixing water crosses the entire Yishui River, especially the lump of ice in the middle, which is so big... And this is why I came to confront you in a hurry. I am afraid that if it is too late, even if the ice is not destroyed,
Wash away, it’s time to melt!”
At this point, Luo Fang held the knife in one hand and stretched out his other hand towards Zhang Xingping: "Zhang San, follow me and fly to the river to see if you can find an unreasonably large ice cube. If you can't find it, I will follow this incident."
I'll invite you two groups to have a drink at Wenwenfang. If you can find it, you'll have to discuss with those black people in the black tower what it means to have both human and material evidence?"
All the onlookers looked at Zhang Xing together, and even Qin Bao also looked at Zhang Xing with a blank expression... Of course, Zhang Xing knew that Qin Bao's meaning was different from the others.
However, Zhang Xing just smiled at Qin Bao and replied calmly to Luo Fang: "Inspection Luo, there is no need to go to such trouble. Now I can prove my innocence on the spot... On the contrary, you will take me to the river and encounter the big ice."
Damn it, I can still argue that someone colluded with Inspector Luo to harm me!"
Luo Fang seemed to be smiling, but wanted to extend his hand.
"Brothers, please help me bring a tank of water." Zhang Xing raised his hand, and the ice energy was clearly revealed through the water vapor in the sunlight.
The people around him suddenly realized that someone had indeed used his true energy to carry the water tank aside. Luo Fang was also stunned for a moment and withdrew his hand with a slight hesitation.
Putting the water vat down, Zhang Xing inserted his hand into the vat without hesitation. The real energy filled the air for a moment, but within a moment, the water in the vat was frozen solid, causing the vat to crack on the spot.
The groups of patrol riders watching the excitement all around cheered.
Zhang Xing glanced at the two regular inspectors who came after hearing the news, and did not continue to differentiate with Luo Fang. Instead, he continued to turn around and smile at the patrolling patrols watching the excitement: "After one tank of water, then three tanks, my eight correct
The cultivation of the pulse was personally verified by Bai Gong, Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Although I am extremely talented, I can only freeze four tanks of water. If I try to use it forcefully, I will lose my strength... not to mention freezing a piece of ice on the Yi River.
Where is the bridge?”
The people around him burst into excitement.
Luo Fang looked hesitant and didn't move. He actually let others put the three tanks of water on the table.
Zhang Xing also had no intention of cheating, but continued to insert his hand into the second tank of water... Just when this tank was about to burst in the smoke, a light flashed above his head, and a cold voice sounded in the air:
"Zhang Xing, if you dare to freeze a vat of water like a street performer again, I will kill you first to prevent others from thinking that my subordinate Bai Yousi can allow others to humiliate you like this!"
Luo Fang opened his mouth to speak, but unexpectedly, two regular inspectors behind him suddenly came up together. One of them used extremely strong longevity energy, grabbed Luo Fang tightly, and scolded him severely in front of everyone:
"Inspector Luo! You are so unreasonable. There is no one in the world who does things like you. How can you touch the white ribbons of other groups without any evidence?! Even if you encounter a leader, you should transfer it to us or
Inspector Bai comes to practice his family skills!"
Luo Fang has not yet spoken.
Bai Yousi, who had just fallen down, only had time to sneer.
The next moment, another regular inspector swung his sword and decapitated the soldier. Then he pointed the knife at the man's head, looked around and said: "This is how outsiders dare to falsely accuse us Jing."
What happened to An Tai...do you remember it?"
That speed was so fast that all the other patrolmen were still in a daze.
As for Zhang Xing, when he saw the heads rolling down, he was surprisingly not relieved. Instead, he felt a little sad that this man was in trouble and betrayed his savior. Although it was an unforgivable crime, he did not survive after all, let alone return home.
Those thoughts are gone.
Tang Yu has been far away for a long time, and he is too old to be admired.
Punishment changes the anger, suppresses the heart and strengthens oneself.
