The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

One afternoon in early October, the sun was shining brightly, with blue sky and white clouds.

Although it is already October, the weather is still hot, especially in Jiangnan Prefecture.

On this day, several groups of people came up the road in Yiyang County, Changsha County.

The first group had a small number of people, about 20 or 30 people, all of them were knights with swords and arrows, all of them were full of vigor, fierce in appearance, and their eyes moved, revealing a lingering aura. Bloody warrior.

There was a wild pavilion on the side of the road. The pavilion chief was sitting at the door of the pavilion basking in the sun when he saw this group of knights.

Today, thieves are everywhere. Although the counties in the south of the Yangtze River are not as chaotic as those in the north, there are still thieves and soldiers. The passing of such 20 or 30 fierce knights is reasonable enough to arouse the vigilance of the pavilion chief, but the pavilion chief just swept the area. The stock knight just glanced at it, and that's all, he didn't even want to get up and go over to ask questions.

This is not because he is afraid, but the current Changsha prefect, Sun Jianwei, is famous. Since he took office, after several **** battles, in just ten months, he has calmed down the district star chaos in the county with more than ten thousand people. The county was in shock, and all the robbers and bandits in the county fled. For a while, it was Yan Qing in the county. Not only that, he also led troops out of the country, and successively conquered the rebels in Lingling and Guiyang counties.

With such illustrious military exploits, what about hundreds of cavalry, not to mention the mere 20 or 30 cavalry?

So, even though he saw dozens of light knights riding, the pavilion chief didn't care.

Moreover, this pavilion has been in the position of the pavilion for a long time. There are many people who come from the south to the north, and they have a lot of eyesight. At a glance, it can be seen that these dozens of knights must be the righteous servants of some powerful family, because of their clothes. Armor, weapons, and mounts are all excellent, and the style and saddle bridle are the same. , is definitely not a thief or the like, or an elite Han army, it can only be the righteous servant of the big family.

"Speaking of which, although the big clan in the county has a lot of righteous servants and clan soldiers, I have only seen such elite righteous servants in the government's house in recent years! I think they must be from outside, right?"

The pavilion chief thought like this, turned his eyes to look at where the knights came from, and said to himself, "Just as I was approaching my pavilion, one of the knights ran back, as I expected. Bad, they should have gone to report the news behind, that is to say, this group of knights is only opening the way, there should be more behind, but I don’t know if the children of the big clan from Hezhou and Hejun came to me in Changsha?”

After a short wait, he saw from a distance that the knight was coming, smoke and dust were everywhere.

After waiting for a while, another group of people was approaching.

This team is different from the previous team of Cavaliers who have gone away.

One is that the number of knights is far greater than the number of knights in the previous stock. At a cursory glance, there must be more than a hundred knights.

In addition to the knights, there are seven or eight chariots in the team, and several doormen with high crowns and black clothes and long sleeves fluttering.

The knights and the doormen are nothing more than that. It seems that those few carriages are not all used to carry people. On the road, most of the wheels are deeply eaten, as if they are loaded with heavy goods.

The pavilion chief hesitated for a while, then thought: "Could it be that it is not a son of a big family, but a businessman who came to my county to do business?"

In today's world, the world is in a state of turmoil, and it is normal for merchants to bring more guards. Moreover, although the status of today's big businessmen is not high, but because of their wealth, they can still afford to be brave and obedient.

Whether it's everyone's children or businessmen, twenty or thirty cavalry can be spared, but more than a hundred cavalry can't help but ask.

To be honest, the pavilion chief did not expect that there would be more than 100 cavalry, but with Sun Taishou there, even more than 100 cavalry was just a side dish. He stood up lazily and patted the pavilion. At the gate of the courtyard, he called out the thieves and soldiers in the courtyard, and said, "Go and ask them to see what they do. Are you visiting friends or doing business in our county?"

As they spoke, the group of vehicles had already arrived in front of the pavilion. It was obvious that they knew the rules and did not go any further. Instead, they slowly parked on the side of the road, waiting for the pavilion chief of the wild pavilion to come and ask questions. .

The pavilion chief instructed the thief and pavilion, while casually turning to look at the carriage that was approaching nearby, just as the curtain of the carriage was blown away by the wind, two faces flashed by in the car, and soon , the curtain was pulled back.

One of the two faces was a woman, very seductive, but the pavilion chief did not notice this woman at all. Even though the curtains of the car had been pulled, he forgot to take his eyes back, and his mind was full of surprises just now. the appearance of the man.

"Master Ting, what's wrong?" Qiu Thief asked.

The pavilion chief let out an "ah", and hurriedly retracted his gaze, but subconsciously glanced at the list in the pavilion gate.

Qiu Thief and the two patriarchs planned to go down and question the team.

But the pavilion chief stopped them and said with a smile: "It's okay, okay, they don't look like thieves. How could a thief stop taking the initiative to see the pavilion?... Look, there is one person here, and he should be here to present it. Trust it."

In the car and cavalry team, a doorman slowly rode his horse over.

This doorman looks extremely ugly, and he is not tall, but sitting on a horse, looking forward, he has a heroic spirit.

He walked to the door of the pavilion, dismounted from the horse, took out an item, and presented it to the pavilion chief who came down, but it was the talisman for customs clearance.

The pavilion master unfolded the letter, took a few glances, and saw that it was issued by a county in Jizhou, but this group of chariots and horses was owned by a businessman in this county in Jizhou. They came to Changsha to pass by, and their destination was Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou is the area of ​​Guangxi, Guangdong, and northern Vietnam in later generations. Although this state is not prosperous in culture and has many barbarians, it is rich in products, including pearls, green feathers, rhinoceros elephants, tortoiseshells, exotic fragrances, and beautiful trees. Wu County is well-known for its sake in the world. Although Jizhou is far away from Jiaozhou, it is not surprising that in order to make money, it is not surprising that he travels thousands of miles to travel.

The pavilion head nodded, returned the fu letter to the short and ugly doorman, and said with a smile: "The distant guest has come all the way, and the journey is hard work. If you go further south and pass Lingling County, you will find the boundary of Jiaozhi. "

The guest said with a smile: "In previous years, my parents used to go to Jiaozhi. After the Yellow Turbans rose in the first year of Zhongping, the road was not stable and they heard that Jiaozhi was also in chaos, so they stopped for a few years and never came back. Later, I heard that Jiagong was Jiaozhi. Inspector, slaying the thieves to settle the situation, the people are at peace, and the rebellion in Beidizhou County has gradually subsided, and then the chariots and horses came back, but what is the current situation in Jiaozhi?"

"Jia Gong", referring to Jia Cong.

In the first year of Zhongping, Jiaozhou also had a great turmoil, and the army revolted. He was the governor and the prefect of Hepu. His commander called himself "General Zhutian". Jia Cong's name is Meng Jian, a native of Liaocheng, Dongjun. He served as Jingzhaoling, and when he was there, he had a name. After he arrived in Jiaozhi, he first moved the book and sent notices, recruited Huangsan, and restored the old servants. After the situation was stabilized, he raised troops. In one fell swoop, he killed Qu Shuai, who was a rebel and a thief, and he also briefly selected good officials to try to guard the counties. In less than a year, the situation in Jiaozhi had stabilized. I rebelled first, but now that I see Qingping, the officials dare not rebel.” Jia Cong has been in Jiaozhi for three years, and his political performance is "the best among the thirteen prefectures", that is to say, he ranks first among the thirteen prefectures. Inspector, Wang Fen, the prefect of Jizhou, failed to abolish Jinzi, but was recruited into Beijing by Jinzi. He was very frightened, and he suspected that it was something to vent, so he committed suicide after the imperial court issued an edict to arrest Xun Zhen.

Changsha is not far from Jiaozhi, and there is only Lingling County in the middle. This pavilion chief knows the situation in Jiaozhi quite well.

He smiled and replied: "Gong Jia was in office for three years, and Jiaozhi was safe because of it, and alleys sang songs for him. After Jiagong left, the governor who succeeded him was named Li Jin, who was native of Jiaozhi, and was the prefect of Wuling in Jingzhou in his early years. , in his nine years in office, he was politically compatible with people, and the court gave him 200,000 yuan. After he took office in Jiaozhi last year, I heard that he was very educated, and his martial arts might not be as good as that of his predecessor Jia Gong, but his culture and governance were similar. "

Wuling County is next to Changsha County, in the west of Changsha County. Li Jin served as the prefect of Wuling for nine years. It is no wonder that the pavilion chief knows him very well. ——Speaking of the economic and cultural development of Jiangnan since this dynasty, it is inseparable from the good officials who have served in Jiangnan in all dynasties. Li Jin received 200,000 yuan from the court for his political harmony and harmony. In the early years of this dynasty, Li Zhongjiu, a native of Donglai, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, was appointed as the prefect of Danyang. As an official in one place, the one that benefits the party is like this.

The doorman said: "This is good! This is good!"

After saying goodbye to Chang Ting, the guest turned back to the cyclist team. After a while, the cyclist team slowly started and continued southward.

The pavilion watched them go away, sat down as if nothing had happened, and sat back on the ground.

Qiu Thief found it strange, he had never seen this pavilion speak so well before, so he couldn't help but ask.

The pavilion chief prevaricates a few words, and only said: "You didn't see the crowd of riders in this team, and the doorman who came to present the letter is ugly, but he is proud of himself. It can be seen that his parents must be extraordinary people. Even though it is a foreign guest, it should not be taken lightly, just say a few words to them, send them away, and save me from waiting." After a pause, he said, "That car just now. The curtain of a carriage in the cavalry was blown open by the wind, revealing two faces, can you see it?"

Qiu Thief and the two pavilion guards both said, "I just listened to the pavilion chief and never saw it."

The pavilion chief let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "That's really a pity!"

The thief asked, "What?"

"But I saw it. The woman in the car seemed to be dressed as a maid, and she was really beautiful."

Qiu Thief and the two patriarchs laughed knowingly, and let him talk about dirty words.

The pavilion leader laughed a few times and thought to himself, "If I see it well, then the man in the carriage is clearly chasing Yingchuan Xunzhen on the document. Why go to Jiaozhi to do business? In my opinion, this must be the case. Going to Jiaozhi to avoid disaster! Alas, Zhao Chang served the government and the opposition, but Xun Zhen dared to arrest and destroy his clan. He is a loyal and righteous person. I don’t know about other counties. God, my name is spreading everywhere in Yiyang County. Although I'm just a small pavilion leader, I know righteousness. Even though I recognize him, I can't say it, I can't say it, only. I hope he will have better luck going south this way!"

After he tried to find out that Qiu Robber and the two Ting soldiers did not see Xun Zhen, he didn't even tell these people, but it was because the Qiu Robber and the two Ting soldiers had a good relationship with him, but after all, it was a big deal. If someone is greedy for a reward and leaks the news, it may be detrimental to Xun Zhen.

You must know that although there are quite a few knights accompanying Xun Zhen, in the end they can’t compare with the thousands of warriors who dared to fight with the “Prefect Sun of the County”.

Once surrounded by "Sun Taishou", it is also a troublesome thing.

Although this pavilion chief is only fighting for food, he is a righteous man, and from this, it can be seen that Xun Zhen's current reputation is even more than a thousand miles away from Wei County. "An Act of Loyalty".

Having said that, the reason why this pavilion master was able to recognize Xun Zhen was thanks to Zhao Zhong.

Currently hunting down fugitives~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I only draw pictures as images, and sometimes pictures may not be accurate, but the reason why this pavilion leader recognized Xun Zhen at a glance was because Zhao Zhong hated Xun Zhen deeply. , so I worked **** the portrait to make it look like a real person.

The portrait on the Zhao arrest document is very similar to that of Xun Zhen. Of course, this caused Xun Zhen trouble, but on the bright side, wherever the Zhao arrest went, it was like an advertisement for Xun Zhen.

Because of the vast territory of the empire, and the reason for the chaos of thieves and obstruction of roads today, sometimes the news is not transmitted quickly between the two neighboring states, not to mention the distances of thousands of miles such as Jizhou and Jingzhou. But now it's better, because of Zhao Zhong's desperate push, the speed of the imperial court's arrest documents reaching the states and counties is extremely fast, but no matter how far or near, as long as the road is feasible, all of them will be delivered within a time limit, and the result will be completed. Wherever he went, everyone knew that Xun Zhen had executed Ye Zhao, and there were rumors that Zhao Zhong vomited blood for him.

No one knows whether Zhao Zhong vomited blood because of it, but if Zhao Zhong knew that the edict he made to arrest Xun Zhen was actually an advertisement for Xun Zhen, he was sure that he would vomit blood.

Not to mention this, but said Xun Zhen.

After Xun Zhen learned that he had been hunted down by the imperial court, and heard that Yi Cong said that his appearance was very similar to his real person, on the one hand, he was relieved because the edict was only arresting him, and he no longer worried about the clan, and on the other hand, for the sake of An Luquan. For the sake of it, I no longer ride horses, but instead travel by car. Even so, I only passed Luo County, which is the northernmost of Changsha. Not long after I entered Yiyang County, I was recognized by the pavilion chief just now by coincidence. It came out, but after Yiyang was the county seat of Changsha County, Linxiang, and it should be fine when it arrives in Linxiang.
