Go to Kaifeng to be a civil servant

During the days of following the fourth-rank imperial guard with a knife and Mr. Zhan Zhaozhan on the road, Jin Qian finally saw what it means to "tighten your belt and be a man" from this dignified fourth-rank guard with a knife.

Na Zhanzhao is worthy of being a general under Lord Bao of Kaifeng Mansion, a good employee worthy of the name, and a well-known generation of heroes. In a word, it is "poor"!

Along the way, although Qin Xianglian's mother and son and Jin Qian's food was not bad, although it could not be called a daily banquet, it was definitely four dishes and one soup every meal.But Zhanzhao’s food is not flattering. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are mainly dry steamed buns, supplemented by water, and a small amount of porridge and side dishes. I don’t know how Qin Xianglian, mother and son feel, anyway, now Jin Qian Seeing the steamed buns, I regurgitated the acid water from Master Zhan's stomach, which can be said to be ineffective -- but Zhan Zhao was very satisfied after eating.

Although Qin Xianglian's mother and son and Jin Qian were a little bit sorry, they often strongly invited this benefactor to have dinner with them, but Zhan Zhao politely declined.Jin Qian was very puzzled: Speaking of Zhan Zhao, he was considered a majestic fourth-rank guard with a sword, and also received the imperial salary, not to mention that this fourth-rank official position is not small, why is he so frugal?

But within a few days of following Mr. Zhan on the road, he learned about the internal situation.

As the saying goes: more monks, less meat, more wolves.

No matter how much Zhan Zhao's salary is, it can't match the number of people who spend it.

Look at this road: rescue the girl who sold her body to bury her father three times - spend four taels of silver, send money to see a doctor who fainted on the side of the road - five taels of silver, help the down-and-out scholar return home - five taels of silver...

In addition to his group of free eaters, who only eat without earning—Jin Qian suddenly felt that it was not easy for Zhan Zhao to make a living with dry steamed buns.

In short, it has been a month and a half since Jinqian's group of wounded, small and hungry people dragged their way to Bianliang, Tokyo.

As Zhan Zhao came to the downstairs of the city gate, before Jin Qian and his party entered the city gate, Zhan Zhao stopped, turned to Qin Xianglian and asked, "Sister-in-law Qin, since you have decided to go to the Kaifeng government office to file a complaint?" Sue my son-in-law, do you have a plan in mind?"

Qin Xianglian thought for a while and said, "Xianglian is going to beat the drums in front of the Yamen of Kaifeng Mansion to appeal for grievances."

Hearing this, Zhan Zhao frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "This is inappropriate. Sister-in-law Qin delivered a confession in Kaifeng Mansion before, if she beats the drums again, she will prosecute twice in one case, and I'm afraid it will annoy Master Bao."

When Qin Xianglian heard this, she lost her mind and hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask benefactor, is there any other way?"

"There is another way... I just don't know if Mrs. Qin has the guts?" Zhan Zhao clasped his sword in both arms, thought for a while, and raised his head.

When Qin Xianglian heard this, she was naturally overjoyed, and immediately replied: "Of course Xianglian dares!"

Hearing this, Zhan Zhao nodded slightly: "This method is—stop the sedan chair and cry for injustice."

But Qin Xianglian was originally resolute and full of ambition. When she heard this, she immediately went halfway, bowed her head in silence, and then raised her head and said after a while: "If there is only this method, Xianglian is willing to give it a try!"

After all, he closed his eyes lightly, with a look of absolute desperation on his face.

Jin Qian was puzzled while listening.

It's just to stop a sedan chair and complain about injustice. The scriptwriters have used up the third-rate plots in TV dramas. Qin Xianglian shouldn't have such a psychological struggle.

But after thinking about it, considering the current realistic background, I suddenly understood something.

Thinking about Bao Zheng, who was in charge of the capital and was a big celebrity in front of the emperor, according to modern standards, he could more or less be considered the role of the Premier of the State Council.

Imagine if I ran to the highway in order to appeal, rushed into a row of black bodyguards in black suits, black sunglasses, and submachine guns, fell to my knees, and stopped the long line where Brother Bao (Note: Premier of the State Council) was The all-black limousine...

There was a chill behind Jin Qian: It is indeed somewhat technically difficult...

Zhan Zhao heard what Qin Xianglian said, nodded slightly unconsciously, cupped his hands and bowed to several people, and said: "In this case, I hope that Mrs. Qin is all right. Now I have escorted a few of you to Kaifeng, and everyone is safe. I still have something important to do, so I will take my leave.”

When Qin Xianglian heard this, although she was reluctant to part with her, but seeing that her benefactor had already made up her mind to go, and seeing that she had already arrived in Kaifeng, it was not appropriate to keep her, so she saluted and prepared to send her benefactor away.

Even though Qin Xianglian was like this, her pair of sons and daughters did not follow her, one on each side, holding tightly to the bottom of Zhan Zhao's blue shirt, pulling left and right, shouting non-stop.

"Brother Prawn Immortal..."

"Brother Prawn Immortal can't go..."

Jin Qian took a look at Coke, and saw that Zhan Zhao generation hero, with a majestic body of seven feet, had two small rice dumplings hanging out of thin air by his side, he didn't want to leave, he didn't want to leave, it was so funny.

However, everyone in the rivers and lakes praised: Nan Xia Zhan Zhao has a good temper, calm and reserved, gentle and refined, and he is self-explanatory.

Seeing that even though Zhan Zhao was caught by a pair of children, he was not annoyed, squatted down, stretched out his hands, touched the heads of the pair of children, and said with a smile: "Brother is destined to be with you two, we will see you again, there is no need to do that." .”

This smile is like a spring breeze blowing on the face, and a clear spring pours into the heart, not to mention that Jin Qian was stunned, even Qin Xianglian's cheeks could not help but warm up, and the two little ghosts were obedient and let go of their hands.

Zhan Zhao just said goodbye, turned and left, he seemed to be walking like an ordinary person, but in the blink of an eye, his figure was hardly visible, which showed that his lightness kung fu was superb.

After a while, Qin Xianglian came back to her senses, and couldn't help asking: "Benefactor said that we are destined, and we will meet soon, I don't know..."

Jin Qian naturally knew the mystery inside, but he smiled bitterly in his heart, unable to answer, he just turned around and led the two little ghosts into the gate of Bianliang City.

-

As soon as he entered Bianliang, Tokyo, Jin Qian's eyes immediately brightened.

If it weren't for the people in front of them wearing ancient costumes, and the houses and pavilions are all in ancient architectural style, Jin Qian would really think that he has returned to a modern metropolis.

This Tokyo Bianliang is really majestic, grand in scale, and magnificent in splendor.There is a street in front of you, about [-] meters wide, with a wide view. There are many pavilions and shops on both sides, and there are many signboards. All kinds of hawkers stand on the side of the street.Looking at the pedestrians on the street, they are well-dressed, ruddy, and polite, which are different from the residents of the prefectures and towns of Nazhou.

Seeing this scene, Jin Qian couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

The counterfeit scenes on those TV dramas are not even one-tenth of the real ones.

Taking a closer look at the hawker stalls on both sides, Jin Qian suddenly complained secretly—this is simply a test of our willpower!

I saw that in the hawker’s baskets and on the stalls, there were all kinds of snacks and snacks, all kinds of fresh fruits, the famous ones, the unnamed ones, all listed, the fragrance was overflowing, the colors were attractive, and people were dazzled and salivating. splash.

Looking back, Qin Xianglian is fine, with a noble attitude that is not tempted.But the pair of little ghosts had already seen nothing else, they just stood there, their eyes straightened, and the saliva slowly drooped down the cracks in their mouths, like two fishing threads.

When Jin Qian saw it, he was immediately terrified, afraid that the two little ghosts would not be able to bear the temptation of material things, and begged him hard. When the time came, wouldn't his few private money be wiped out.

Thinking of this, Jin Qian immediately lifted his spirits, listened to the six directions, and looked in all directions, trying to find out the travel route of the group in Kaifeng Mansion.

Before the question could be spoken, the pedestrians around him suddenly became noisy.

Pedestrians avoided standing on both sides of the street one after another, and merchants and hawkers hurriedly picked up their burdens and returned their goods to the side of the street, immediately vacating a 50-meter-wide passage.

Jin Qian felt puzzled, and was just about to ask the passers-by around him, but the sound of gongs came from his ears.

The sound of the gong was not too fast or slow, and there was a faint air of majesty.

Looking around, I saw a group of people and horses walking slowly in the middle of the road. There were gongs in front of them to clear the way, and guards behind them. "" and "avoidance" in eight big characters. Behind the plaque are four guards in brocade clothes, holding long knives, standing solemnly, with a majestic appearance; behind the four people is a navy blue official sedan chair, carried by four porters, firmly Going forward - exactly: very stylish.

Looking at the pedestrians and vendors on the road, everyone bowed their heads. Although no one bowed down, they all looked respectful.

When Jin Qian saw it, he was overjoyed.

With such a ostentation, coupled with the two big names of "Kaifeng" and "Fu Yin", the person who came here must be the old bag of Kaifeng Mansion!It's true: I searched for him thousands of times in the crowd, and suddenly I looked back, but I was in a dimly lit place.

Jin Qian thought in his heart, and his body also took action.

She turned around quickly, pulled Qin Xianglian and a pair of children behind her, and whispered in Qin Xianglian's ear: "It seems that the couple in front are Lord Bao's team, why don't Miss Xianglian stop the sedan chair and call for grievances?"

But Qin Xianglian, holding the physical evidence steel knife tightly with both hands, said nothing, her body trembled slightly, but there was no movement for a long time.

Jin Qian was very anxious when he saw it: How could these ancient people lose their chains in an emergency!

Seeing that Mr. Bao's team is about to leave, if he misses this opportunity, he still doesn't know when he will be able to eat a free official meal!

So Jin Qian made up his mind immediately, retreated a few steps behind Qin Xianglian, raised his right foot, and kicked Qin Xianglian's buttocks.

With this kick, Jin Qian's food and private money were betted on his future and fortune. Jin Qian exerted all his strength, the position was accurate, and the strength was fierce. Qin Xianglian's body was like an arrow from the string, rushing straight out of the crowd , a "big" shape on the end fell down in front of Mr. Bao's sedan chair.

Qin Xianglian's pounce didn't matter, but it frightened the four guards in front of Mrs. Bao's sedan chair. The four thought: What's the matter? Facing down, with an indecent figure... The one who stopped the sedan chair to complain?I have never seen such a person blocking the sedan chair, and I put on a five-body posture first; is it an assassin?That's too outrageous, what kind of assassin can appear in such a way...

These four guards, although they were muttering in their hearts, they did not neglect their skills.All four of them drew their sabers out of their sheaths at the same time, and shouted in unison: "Who? How dare you stop the official sedan chair of Lord Bao, the prefect of Kaifeng?"

This sound is naturally four in one, loud and powerful, but unfortunately, it has no effect.

The person who fell to the ground in front of the sedan chair did not respond at all, his face was still on the loess soil and his back was facing the sky, motionless.

At this moment, not to mention the four guards were puzzled, even the common people around felt strange, everyone thought: This is a strange thing that happens every year, especially this year, such a new way of blocking the sedan chair is really an eye-opener.

Jin Qian could see clearly from the side, and he yelled in his heart that something was wrong.

It's broken, it seems that she kicked too standardly, this Qin Xianglian flew out, her head hit the ground, and nine out of ten she fell unconscious.

Looking again, the four guards in front of the sedan chair looked tense, and the four steel knives were shining coldly, and they were about to swing at Qin Xianglian. They were suddenly anxious, and they didn't care about what would happen to me, a future person who participated in history. As a result, he dashed out of the crowd, rushed to Qin Xianglian, and knelt down with a plop.

"My lord, the villain is wronged!!"

Jin Qian's cry of grievances almost frightened the four guards, and they couldn't help taking half a step back at the same time.

It turned out that Jin Qian was in a hurry and used the lightness kung fu of "Xiaoyaoyou" without realizing it. From the outsiders' eyes, it seemed as if he suddenly appeared from the ground.

Jin Qian naturally didn't notice it at this time, and he still felt strange: the procedure of blocking the sedan chair and calling for grievances on TV could be wrong, why these people didn't even respond after calling for a long time...

The guard in front of the sedan chair didn't respond, but the person in the sedan chair reacted quite a bit.

"Who is complaining?" Only a deep voice came from the dark blue official sedan chair, calm and dignified.

Only then did the guards in front of the sedan chair come to their senses, and saw one of them withdrew his long knife, retreated to the front of the sedan chair and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, he is a little beggar."

"Little beggar?" The person in the sedan chair pondered for a moment, then the curtain of the sedan chair moved, and a person stepped out of the official sedan chair.

I saw this man, about 40 years old, wearing black gauze on his head, a purple python dragon robe, a jade belt on his waist, and black satin official boots on his feet. Looking at his face, his skin is purple and black, his heavy eyebrows are upside down, and the corners of his eyes are slanted. The eyes are like lightning, and there is something in the center of the forehead, which is a bright crescent moon. Under it, there is a lion nose, a square mouth, and three strands of black beard scattered on the chest. Upright and majestic.

Jin Qian took a look, hey, good guy, he really lived up to his reputation-black, really black!It is simply the best in black, except for the pair of white eyes, the white teeth, and the legendary crescent moon, the whole body looks like it was fished out of an ink tank, the black is translucent, and the bright is black.It seems that this ten percent is our temporary free "meal ticket" - the old bag.

Besides, the person in the sedan chair is naturally Bao Zheng and Master Bao, governor of Kaifeng Prefecture.Mr. Bao retreated from the morning court and was about to go back to the house, when he met Jin Qian, who was blocking the sedan chair and shouting for injustice.Logically speaking, since Mr. Bao reformed the procedure for common people to file complaints, the number of common people holding sedan chairs and calling for injustice has been increasing day by day, and what happened today is expected.But at this time Master Bao looked at the situation and couldn't help being a little surprised.

In the middle of the avenue, there was a person facing down in a big character shape. Judging by her clothes, she was a woman.In front of the woman, there was a young man kneeling straight, with ragged clothes and disheveled hair, he looked like a Hanako, but after a closer look, he saw that this young man had a round face with thick eyebrows, a pair of long eyes, shining brightly, He was staring at himself, beaming with joy.

Master Bao suddenly felt a chill behind his back, and felt something strange in his heart, so he asked, "But you are complaining?"

Jin Qian hurriedly replied: "My lord, it's the villain."

"What is wrong with you?"

When Jin Qian heard this, he pointed at Qin Xianglian behind him, and said loudly: "My lord, it is Qin Xianglian behind the villain who has a strange grievance!"

Master Bao couldn't help being taken aback, and quickly asked: "The Qin Xianglian you mentioned is—"

Jin Qian nodded and bowed immediately, and motioned to the two little ghosts behind him. When Qin Xianglian's son and daughter saw it, they hurried forward and knelt beside Jin Qian.

Jin Qian wrapped his arms around a pair of children, nodded and said, "It's the Qin Xianglian that adults know."

Master Bao saw that the pair of children knew each other. They were the children of Qin Xianglian, the woman who went to the Kaifeng government office to sue the current son-in-law three months ago.Immediately, he frowned, pondered for a moment, and ordered: "Chao Chao, Ma Han, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, escort Qin Xianglian's mother and son back home!"

"Yes, my lord." The four guards in front of the sedan chair replied loudly.

Jinqian immediately understood that these four brothers with knives were the "Four Great King Kongs" in front of Laobao's seat. Doctor: Mr. Gongsun?

Although Jin Qian had doubts in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. He just watched Qin Xianglian being lifted up by two guards, and he led a pair of little ghosts, and walked slowly towards the Kaifeng government office with Lord Bao's team.

Not long after, I came to the Kaifeng government office.

Jin Qian looked up and was amazed in his heart.

This Kaifeng government office, with jade pillars and cornices, is majestic and solemn. There are two red lacquered gates, about three meters high, facing each other. , looking solemn, on the right side of the gate, there is a red lacquer drum placed on an elevated shelf, just about the height of one person.

Looking at the left side of the gate, there is a person standing alone, wearing a plain cloth and a blue square scarf hat. Seeing the team returning home, he took two steps forward, cupped his hands and said: "Students welcome you back home."

I saw that this person had a thin figure, high cheekbones, slender eyebrows, three light beards, slightly flowing, and a strong bookish atmosphere between his brows, but his complexion was too pale, as if covered with three layers of liquid foundation.

Jin Qian took a closer look and almost spit out a mouthful of saliva in a straight line.

This, this need not be asked, it must be Mr. Gongsun, but, this person and Lao Bao stand together, the visual contrast is too great!Comparable to a famous modern snack product - "black and white match".
