"I am Huaishuo Hua Mulan."
After He Mulan was besieged, he said such a sentence that made the second monk puzzled.
"Go and tell your prefect, I have rank 12 military merit, and he should come and see me."
The post of military attache of the Great Wei is divided into "honor officer" and "life officer". The former is divided into 12 ranks based on the number of battles, the number of kills, the number of times with fewer enemies and the number of kills of enemy generals. The first one is rank one, and there are dozens of murders, and when it reaches the highest, it is 12 ranks, called "Shangzhu Kingdom", the second rank of honorary officer, and no real position.
Although no matter how many military achievements you have, you may not be able to become a real second-rank official, but just like in later generations "so-and-so enjoys the treatment of so-and-so", a military officer is the highest honor for a warrior, if you don't stay in the army If you want to become an official in the middle, you need to rely on family capital, background and merit to arrange grades.
Honorary officials are lifelong, but life officials are appointed by the court.
For many military households who have no salary even if they become officials, and can't rely on the spoils of war as in the army, it is much more reliable to work hard on the battlefield to obtain military merits and obtain a lord than to be an official lacking official.
He Mulan had been in the army for twelve years, and when the Son of Heaven discussed merits and deeds, he was a martial hero of the "Twelve Revolutions", and even if he saw the Prince, he didn't have to kneel.
She will be rewarded by the emperor every year. If she is not an official, the reward of rank 12 is enough for her to live a carefree life.
In the Great Wei Dynasty, high military merit was everything. Today, Zi Tuoba Tao respects warriors and treats soldiers and soldiers above ten ranks. Now there are no more than ten people in the 12th rank of military service in the DPRK. There are only three ordinary military households.
Because Mulan is a woman, even if her name is a little louder, she cannot be granted an official position. But in the past when the tribal system was established, Xianbei women were also capable of commanding soldiers. Hua Mulan received rank 12 military merit, and the army always recognized her status, whether it was Lin Lang, the fourteenth feather, who came to ask for marriage, or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Tuoba Huang called Hua Mulan "General".
This title is complete, it should be called "The Great General of the Zhuguo", which means the pillar of the country.
When He Mulan just reported her name, the group of soap officials who surrounded her looked at each other dumbfoundedly. Although she felt that her tone seemed remarkable, she didn't have any memory.
"Huai Shuo Hua Mu Lan, who is that?"
He Mulan's "Hua Mulan" was read in Xianbei dialect. Most of these soap officials were Han Chinese.
"Isn't Huaishuo a military town in the north? Could it be some dignitary in the north?"
"The dignitaries should be in Pingcheng, the place where the yellow sand fills the sky in Huaishuo..." a soap official shouted. "How can a high-ranking official go out with a short and dumb black boy! This must be some Xianbei people in the countryside to fool us!"
"You! I..." Hearing them insulting Aunt Hua like this, A-Danzhuo said that he was "short and dumb", and immediately raised his fists, wanting to fight with them.
He Mulan grabbed his arm and frowned.
She thought that Mulan's reputation was very famous in Pinglu, at least Chiran and Ruoye had heard of it. As a result, these soap officials seemed to have never heard of it, and they didn't even know what the 12th rank of military merit meant.
Could it be that these people are the lackeys that Jiang Chou used to do evil things.
"What's so great about Huaishuo Huamulan, I even said that I am the Yuanbao of King Pinglu! Who knows who you are!" A soap official let out a disdainful laugh.
"That's right, 12th rank for military merit, even 36th rank... ah!"
An arrow shot from nowhere rubbed his scalp, he only felt his scalp cool, and then something hot ran down his forehead.
The talking soap official touched his forehead and suddenly let out a terrified cry:
"Ah! It's bleeding!"
"I don't know if General Hua is here, but I dare to raise a sword against you. We are unreasonable, and I will apologize to you!" The city gate officer who was assisting the siege of Hua Mulan on the city tower put down the bow and arrow in his hand and gave a military salute to one knee. Kneeling down: "General Hua, please forgive me!"
"General Hua, please forgive me!"
The city gate officials, who knew who Hua Mulan was, knelt down together.
When He Mulan was mocked by the soap officials, he was really embarrassed to death.
This is the first time she has borrowed the reputation of Hua Mulan, and she also used a stylish opening statement like "I am Hua Mulan" in order not to fall into the name of Hua Mulan.
As a result, he was slapped in the face by "I'm still Pinglu Wang Yuanbao".
In this era, consultation is not available. Many people you think others know do not know, and you think others do not know, but it is possible to find out in the streets and alleys. He Mulan looked at Hua Mulan's name too highly, and also looked at the knowledge of these ordinary soap officials.
The soap officials are just a bunch of lowly servants, without official salaries, they rely on the county magistrate to distribute rice and grain to live, they are called officials, and they are actually running dogs.
He Mulan's shame and anger could not be relieved at all, she even wanted to pull out the rock and smash these people.
Insulting her idol! Do they want to be beaten one by one, or do they want to be beaten together
Even if she was shot into a hedgehog, she couldn't help it!
An arrow from the city gate official cleared the siege and prevented her from running away. That "General Flower" made her eyes feel so hot that she was about to burst into tears, and the group of city gate officials saluted and knelt down, which gave her a strange satisfaction at that moment.
What's wrong with no money.
No official what happened.
What if these soap officials were blind.
The army still remembers Hua Mulan! .
When the city gate official knelt down, some soap officials quickly returned to report.
Although this city gate officer is only eighth-rank, he is the leader of the county soldiers here, with more than 100 people under his command, who is specially responsible for guarding the four gates.
Don't underestimate the city gate officer. The promotion of the guard troops in the Dawei region is extremely slow, especially in the southern areas where there is no war. The city gate officer is the most fertile, safest, and the best welfare among the soldiers in the county. group of people. Don't look at Chen Jie as a county commander, but the monthly oil and water is not necessarily more than that of the city gate officer.
If an ordinary soldier wants to become a city gate officer, either his backing is strong enough, or he has real skills, and the others who beat him can't get up. No matter what kind of person it is, he is not someone who can be underestimated.
This city gate officer also retired from the army, and became the city gate officer here by relying on the way of his old boss. It's just that when he first came here, it was still a rich and prosperous county, but now it has become deserted, and there is no such thing as an endless stream of merchants and handicraftsmen in the past.
It's just that he has to make a living, and secondly, the old boss is also someone who supports Jiang Chou's side, so sometimes as long as he can't stretch his hand long, he can close one eye.
If the money is enough, and the matter is nothing serious, it is not difficult for him to help.
But the premise is that you can't get into trouble.
Hua Mulan's reputation, he had heard of it when he was still in the army. This Shangguan of his Dongping County is only a subordinate of Hua Mulan's subordinates, a commander of thousands.
How could he be offended by such a person!
When the soap officials insulted Hua Mulan, the city gate official felt bad, because Hua Mulan's face was so pale that it was too scary.
He was not afraid of bad luck in the future, but he was afraid that these people would annoy the general and make her take action in anger, and that small matter would become a big one, and he could not stop his own use of power for personal gain.
So he did not hesitate to take the risk of offending Jiang Chou, and held Hua Mulan high, quietly making up for her face. These "heroes" are all "made" between people. He has been a city gate officer for so many years, and he has seen a lot of things that come to us. People remember you, you are a person.
This is the philosophy of small people's survival. He Mulan would never have imagined that the scene where she was remembered by the army and respected even by the city gate officials was actually facilitated like this.
But in any case, He Mulan did step down the steps, and it was very comfortable. Adanzhuo even wanted to forgive the city gate officer who stopped them and invited him to drink.
The happiest thing for a man in this world is that a hero cherishes a hero.
"General Hua, this should just be a misunderstanding. You are very valuable, and it would be embarrassing to be held back by these soap officials. Let's do it..." The city gate official threw the bow and arrow beside him, and clasped his fists: How about taking someone to personally take you back to the yamen to explain the misunderstanding?"
o…
He Mulan.
…
Adanzhuo.
With such courtesy and respect, after all, do you still want to go back to see that dog official
This is different from the "Hua Rong moral interpretation of Cao Cao" joke!
***
Before the scene of He Mulan and A Danzhuo riding their horses and rushing through the market, a few people were heard, and the two were intercepted and returned by Jiang Papi.
This made many people who wanted to see Zhou Papi unlucky to let out a long sigh, cursing the county magistrate to cover the sky with one hand, and even the Xianbei warriors with amazing martial arts and superb riding skills could not escape his claws.
In just a moment, the people of Pinglu felt that their guesses were probably wrong. Because no one caught would be so…
Uh…
pompous
He Mulan, who was insisted by many people as "a dignitary who came to inspect", was sitting on top of her divine horse at the moment, and there were walking guards with waist knives and spears. .
The big "pawn" characters on the chests of these gatekeepers proved that they were county soldiers rather than those annoying soap officials, and their humble and docile attitude was enough to show that the knight on the horse was definitely not a prisoner.
This made He Mulan's identity as a "big man" once again confirmed. Some people are even thinking about whether they want to find a way to speak up and file a grievance or something, or at least show their face.
What if this adult takes a fancy to him, and he also becomes a follower or something
And those "shrimp soldiers and crab generals" of the county magistrate did not even have the qualifications to lead the horse to the lord, but they were far away from the entourage behind the lord, and they did not dare to stick too close. .
Some people began to look forward to the end of Jiang Chou's good days. Some people think that this adult has such a good relationship with the city gate official, and he is walking into the yamen again, fearing that it will be a nest of snakes and rats.
All in all, under all kinds of speculations, a group of people were half watching the fun, half wanting to satisfy their own thoughts, and they followed He Mulan and the group to the yamen.
"Senior brother, I don't think the flower donor is in any danger..." Ai Ran was wearing an old shirt bought by He Mulan and hid behind a stall, whispering to Chiran next to her.
Obsession is more comfortable than him. He leaned against the wall, with a condescending expression that looked like a beggar, as if he was unintentional, but in fact he kept looking at the market from the corner of his eye.
"There's no danger. She should have taken little brother Adan out of the city, where will she go back." Chi Ran frowned. "Let's wait here for a few more days to see how General Hua will do."
"The flower donor seemed to have said to Brother Adan before that if she went to the Baoen Temple Buddha and was caught, he would quickly go to the prefect's mansion in Chen County to find someone. If the flower donor was really in prison, we would like to Let's go to Chenjun." Airan rubbed her hands with a frown.
"I've been looking for Lu for a long time. Where is Chen Jun? This is really terrible."
"Chen Jun is in the far south." Chiran wandered around a lot when he was a beggar, "Just wait and see. If the situation is not right..."
He gritted his teeth.
"Let's go to the prefect's mansion in Chen County.".
When Jiang Chou received the news and walked out of the yamen, what he saw was such a picture that made him pass away.
Out of nowhere, there were so many people surrounding him, and even the city gate official ran out to join in the fun, and diligently waited on the Xianbei man who was sitting on Dawanliang's horse to dismount.
The eyes of the people next to him were all rounded, just wanting to see how he reacted.
However, he and some of the prefects had just learned the identity of this Xianbei from the damned little official. Even if he wanted to build up his reputation, he did not dare to put on the air of his seventh-rank official in front of the prefect.
Twelve turns, second grade.
He could never touch it in his life.
So he could only force a smile, standing like a fool in the cold winter wind.
God knows his heart is about to fall into the ice hole.
These idiots!
Knowing the trick is tricky, don't know how to play stupid and let him go!
Can't they pull it back and ask their master to make amends for this woman? Do you still want the face
Seeing that Jiang Papi didn't shake the official, he didn't put on airs, and even ran out to greet him, and all of them burst into laughter, almost without red flags fluttering, and the gongs and drums were noisy.
This guy has come across even better!
I saw that the slender Xianbei man with a cold face immediately declined the kindness of the city gate official.
Seeing this tricky guy calling himself "Huaishuo Hua Mulan", Jiang Chou turned his face in his direction with a cold and impatient expression...
…
Then he held his forehead, frowning as if he saw someone who was disgusted.
****
It wasn't anyone else who gave He Mulan a headache, but the middle-aged man next to Jiang Chou who was wearing a fur coat and a Xianbei leather hat.
"Heaven Comes"
From the moment she saw him, He Mulan's headaches when she recalled the past repeatedly came back, and a familiar name jumped to her lips.
"How many… people?"
What the hell is this name!
The author has something to say: several people are real Xianbei names, some surnames, and famous people. I almost didn't burst out laughing when I saw it. In addition to "a few people", there is also "the bald prince", who can spit all night.
small theater:
What if these soap officials were blind.
The army still remembers Hua Mulan!
Clan officials (confused): Who is Hua Mulan? Forget it, the boss is kneeling, let's kneel too...
