After leaving the gate of the General's Mansion of the Frontier Army, Fang Jie stepped on the thick snow and walked all the way in the direction of Jinyuanfang. Because the snow is too thick, the sound of stepping on it is very clear.
"Fang Jie, I heard you went out to kill a thief today?"
Aunt He, who came out not far away to pour out the laundry dirty water, asked with a smile.
This is a woman who insists that she was as delicate and beautiful as a flower ten years ago. Perhaps life is really a piece of fat, and after only ten years of feeding, a flower has turned into an aunt with pockmarks on the waist of a bucket, but there is no doubt Fortunately, this does not prevent Aunt He from being proud even now.
"Yeah, Aunt He has become handsome again recently, and the daughter-in-law of old Chen's family didn't like you a few days ago."
"Oh... you boy, did you realize that my wife is more beautiful than Huajiao now? When I was walking in the rivers and lakes, the people who chased me could line up from Fangu City to the imperial capital."
"Aunt He, your words have reached my heart. Every time I see you, I have a pleasing feeling. It's like sitting on the green grass in the warm spring and admiring a blooming flower. Don't say too much Enjoyed it."
Aunt He's round face turned red, and she couldn't help but ask coyly, "Then tell me, what kind of flower does my old lady look like?"
Fang Xie thought about it carefully, and then said sincerely, "Tawny flowers."
"why?"
Aunt He was startled, and asked a little puzzled.
Fang Jie looked at Aunt He's huge breasts and round face, and then sincerely praised: "The higher you go, the bigger it will be."
"Fang Juexiao!"
A furious cry exploded in the alley, and then someone jumped out of the alley like a bereaved dog, the speed was astonishingly fast, followed by a huge wooden basin flew out of the alley, It fell to the ground with a slap and fell to pieces.
Fang Jie only felt the wind blowing in his ears, and thought proudly that his lightness kung fu had improved a lot in the past few days.
Before I ran thirty steps away, I heard Aunt He shouting from behind with a voice that could shake the entire Fangu City: "Fang Juexiao, my mother arranged to take you on a blind date the day after tomorrow. She is the daughter of the old Wu family in the east of the city. If you dare to be late, I will smash your Jinyuanfang signboard!"
Fang Jie stopped immediately, looked back at Aunt He and asked, "Damn Jinyuanfang...do you want your dividend?"
Aunt He put her hips on her back and roared, "Just tell my old lady whether you want to go or not!"
Before Fang Jie could answer, the doors and windows of every house on the street opened one after another, and a girl stood by the window and shouted eagerly: "Fang Juexiao, if you dare to go on a blind date, I will jump off!"
"Fang Juexiao, if you dare to find other women, I will become a nun right now!"
"Fang Juexiao! You heartless man!"
A woman said furiously: "Fang Juexiao! If you dare to betray my daughter, I will cut off your life and feed it to the dogs!"
A young woman cried sadly, regretting why she married someone so early.
Only the widow grandson, who was only twenty-six years old and had been widowed for five years, leaned against the door frame and gnawed melon seeds and said softly, "Little Fang Jie, I will come here often after I get a wife."
Fang Xie didn't dare to stay longer, he rushed out like a shell fired from the chamber. When he was rushing past Widow Sun's door, he suddenly stopped abruptly and quickly pinched Widow Sun's plump breasts: "Every time you don't mind making trouble, you always let me take the blame. If I really suffer It's fine if I miss you, I peeked at you taking a bath, do you want to take revenge on me for the rest of my life... "
After pinching it, it felt very good. Fang Xie couldn't help pinching it again, and he could even find the spot where the bump was located through the thick cotton coat: "This is interest!"
After Fang Jie succeeded, he immediately started to run again, leaving behind the blushing Widow Sun, who dropped a field of melon seeds in shock.
Thinking that this little thing really got his hands this time, Widow Sun couldn't help but get angry: "Fang Juexiao, come and touch it next time if you have the ability!"
Fang Jie turned around and shouted as he ran, "I won't be fooled a second time! Look at the drum... How many layers of cotton did you put on!"
Widow Sun was so embarrassed that she hid her face and went back to her room, not daring to look back.
The Widow Sun in the answering room unbuttoned her jacket, took out a large ball of soft cloth from the obscene clothes, and threw it on the ground. Can you catch it?"
But remembering that Fang Jie was able to accurately touch a certain point of her face just now through such a thick thing, he couldn't help but get red and hot.
"Damn... my old lady was actually molested by a half-grown kid."
Thinking of this, Widow Sun stood up abruptly with a determined expression on her face.
It is so easy to eat my tofu, let my old lady seize the opportunity and squeeze out your tofu brain in one go! Widow Sun standing in the room is like a fighter with high morale. At this time, the little daughters-in-law and girls who stood at the window watching Fang Jie run away, their eyes were blurred, and some couldn't help looking at the back of the man and said, "You look so handsome when you run..."
oops!
Someone at the street corner slipped and fell on his back, looking handsome in a mess.

Fan Gu is the most northwestern border city of the Sui Dynasty. This small city with a radius of only three and a half miles is the most outpost of the northwestern frontier of the Sui Dynasty. Out of the city gate, less than sixty miles to the west, there is a mountain range that is not tall and majestic, and it runs continuously from north to south. According to the words of the frontier soldiers in Fangu City, that piece of mountain is like countless breasts.
In fact, this mountain range is called the Wolf Milk Mountain Range. It is said that the royal family of the Mongolian Yuan Empire, who ruled over the endless prairie, were the descendants of the Canglang, and their ancestors were born in this mountain range.
But what makes the people of the Mongolian Yuan Empire a little sad and helpless is that since the rise of the empire called Great Sui in the southeast, this mountain range no longer completely belongs to them. Of course, it does not completely belong to the Sui Dynasty.
One hundred and twenty years ago, after Emperor Gaozu of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian established the country, the army of the Sui Dynasty, like the rising sun, continued to expand its territory outward. In the past 30 years, it has never lost a single battle.
After the army of the Sui Dynasty went west to the Langru Mountains, the most powerful Mongolian Yuan Empire in the west could no longer bear the aggression of the emerging country of the Sui Dynasty. 400,000 cavalry came out of the grassland and crossed the Langru Mountains to attack the Sui army, but it was really speechless that the so-called invincible grassland elite cavalry did not take advantage of the decisive battle with the 120,000 elite guards of the Sui Dynasty.
Although the Sui army lacked war horses, their elite infantry formation was as strong as the Yanshan Mountains in the south. 110,000 of the 400,000 Mongolian and Yuan cavalry died in battle, and a full 40,000 of the elite soldiers of the Sui Dynasty were also lost. Unwilling to be frustrated, the Mongolian Yuan Empire mobilized heavy troops. Meng Kuo, known as Tian Khan, personally led 200,000 golden tent cavalry to support him. He happened to meet Yang Jian, the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty who also led an army in person.
The 100,000 Sui Zuo Wuwei, You Wuwei, Zuo Xiaowei, Zuo Yuwei's elite soldiers encountered the 200,000 gold tent cavalry of the Mongolian Yuan Empire, relying on various battle formations composed of hard spears, spears and huge shields, Yang Jian was actually They won all three battles and forcefully forced Meng Kuo back to the west of the Langru Mountain Range.
Since then, the two sides have fought fiercely for six years. The Mongolian Yuan Empire could not regain its face, and the newly born Sui Dynasty was also unable to enter the grassland. Finally, the two sides signed an agreement under the Langru Mountain. The territory of the Yuan Empire, the east of the Langru Mountains is the territory of the Sui Dynasty.
So there was Fangu, a border city on the side of Langru Mountain, and a stone city called Nirvana on the other side of Langru Mountain.
Nearly a hundred years have passed since this agreement, and the two sides still maintain peace. But no matter it was the Great Sui Dynasty or the Meng Yuan Dynasty, the successive emperors all wanted to truly defeat the opponent and achieve eternal fame.
The Great Sui Dynasty was located in the Central Plains where agriculture and animal husbandry were the mainstay, lacking all kinds of leather, jade, cattle and sheep, especially without horses, it was impossible to go deep into the grassland to fight. However, the Mongolian Yuan Empire lacked iron, salt, brocade, tea and fine wine from the Central Plains, and their infantry was too weak to face the plethora of cities in the Central Plains.
The Fan Gu frontier army on the Langru Mountain Range, and the wolf riders from Nirvana City on the other side all want to take down the opponent's town one day, and then ride on the opponent's soldiers to make a good pile of shit. But three years ago, after Yang Yi, the sixth emperor of the Sui Dynasty, met with Meng Ge, the 30th Khan of the Mongolian Yuan Empire, Fan Gucheng had another identity.
market.
Merchants in the Sui Dynasty could transport goods that were in short supply on the grassland to Fangu City, and exchange them for cattle, sheep, leather, and jade in the hands of grassland herdsmen. The first, eighth, eleventh, eighteenth, twenty-first, and twenty-eighth days of each month are market opening days. In order to exchange for the necessary salt, tea and brocade cloth, the herdsmen have to go to the city early Line up outside the door, regardless of cold or heat.
In the eyes of these herdsmen, the Sui Frontier Army in Fangu City was really disgusting. But none of them dared to make trouble, because Li Xiaozong, the general of the frontier army, was a very just and strict person. Any herdsman who caused trouble could be whipped thirty times, or cut off his head and hung it on a flagpole to show the public. So the herdsmen hated him and feared him.
Not only that, if the merchants in the Central Plains cheated the herdsmen by treachery, or if Li Xiaozong knew about the behavior of buying and selling by force, they would be punished severely. The rules are still simple, depending on the seriousness of the case, ranging from 30 floggings to severe cases of cutting off the head and hanging it on a flagpole for public display. So the herdsmen respect him and love him.
What needs to be explained is that none of the people who have been whipped for 30 years has survived for 5 days.
What needs to be explained is that the execution whip is full of copper coins, and when the whip is pulled down, the blood will be bloody. Therefore, the only difference between thirty floggings and beheading is that in the former, the person to be tortured can barely leave a body that is still recognizable as a human.
But Li Xiaozong, the general of the frontier army, also said that it is nothing to bully the grassland people, but it is not good to break the rules of Fan Gucheng. Yes, this is absolutely intolerable.
…
…
The eighth day of February is the day when the trade market is open. The herdsmen obediently paid the entry tax at the gate of the city, and then rushed to the market to exchange what they needed. But at noon, Fan Gucheng began to become more lively. Herdsmen with spare money and Central Plains businessmen who have made money will flock to restaurants, brothels, and casinos to have fun. Therefore, on the day of the market, what the women in the brothel hate the most is that they are inconvenient during this time, and they miss the reward money from the benefactor's pocket.
The herdsmen admired the brocades and tea leaves of the Central Plains very much, and even more admired the whiteness and beauty of the women in the Central Plains. Although there are many beauties in the grassland women, most of them have to graze in the wind and sun, so their skin is very dark, and their waists are as thick as buckets. Compared with those women in the brothel who put on a little makeup, they are like one in the sky and the other in the ground.
These herdsmen are bold, basically they will not leave Fangu City with spare money, they only need to take away the goods, and the five baht money of the Sui Dynasty is meaningless to them. So the girls in Louzi prefer grassland herdsmen, while those merchants in the Central Plains are very stingy.
In fact, the main purpose of many herdsmen coming to Fangu City is not to exchange goods, but to enter Fangu's three buildings for entertainment and excitement.
The so-called third floor is Keshengju, Hongxiuzhao, and Jinyuanfang.
A restaurant, a brothel, and a gambling house.
