In the city of Jiaozhou, both the guardian and the governor's office are used.
Zeng Dagon looked at Fan Chuo standing in front of him, only to feel the unspeakable greasiness and disgust in his heart, but he had to pinch his nose to listen to him.
"Is the grass thief willing to stop fighting and retreat? Is this afraid of our army Weihehe..."
"No, it's the one who is willing to abandon the past, and join hands with Duhu to fight foreign insults first."
Fan Chuo couldn't help but explain softly.
"And let the servants submit a statement,'Ning and the Han family, don't let the foreign barbarians'... Under the premise of a unified external united front, everything can be negotiated..."
"How is this possible, do you expect Zhongliang from the imperial court of my time to hand in hand with the thief..."
Zeng Dagon sneered disdainfully.
"Even if I dared to accept it, my thousands of erlangs would definitely not reject it..."
"Then there will be a second choice..."
Fan Chuo calmly continued.
"The outside of the city will want to go to Fengzhou to fight against the invaders Xiyuan Barbarian... and please don't be surprised in the city and cause casualties..."
"If this is true or not, do you dare to believe in thieves..."
Zeng Dagon couldn't help but burst into laughter and made a scene
"These grass thieves have always been profitable and forget righteousness without knowing what the righteousness is... A certain dare to pay for it with safety and security..."
"I'm afraid this is pretending to be weak, and we want our army not to move rashly and miss a fighter opportunity, or to use fraudulent means to make money secretly..."
"Since Gongming has been able to return it, he should take a good rest and stop worrying about these things that he is not good at..."
Hearing this, Fan Zhuo could not help but squeezed his fists and became a little angry and anxious. Could it be that the safety of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians of Annan is still not enough to squeeze the personal honor and disgrace of the superiors; even if it is a symbolic expression Putting a false high posture, so that he can continue to deceive himself and others.
This is almost the same as his sincere and sincere efforts to persuade and win local support one by one when he was in office. However, he said sadly in his heart: Almost all of them were quasi-none by the feeder. Then he loosened his fist and allowed the sergeant to take it down. In this case, he had no choice but to choose another method and find another way.
Then when he returned to his residence, he found that there was already a sergeant sent by Zeng Kun to guard it; he couldn't help but sighed again that the other party was also guarding against possible changes he might make in private; it was just a few of them. After being reunited with his family for a while, he was notified of a visitor. I couldn't help but wondered that I was a person who had returned from the camp of thieves.
Then he saw the other party, but it was a domestic slave from the Gao Cishi Mansion; he sent him some daily necessities on the grounds of condolences, and then hurriedly resigned after giving him a few words. Then he found an unnamed piece of paper at the bottom of the food box, but he used his familiar handwriting to explain some follow-up events and points of attention in the city.
After entering the night, he reckoned to get up from the bed again, igniting the lights in the study and re-examined and revised the manuscript. After a while, the outer door was again It rang and someone asked softly:
"Fan Changshi is there..."
After that, Fan Chuo walked out, but saw the Gaofu family slave who had come to visit during the day, waiting under the corner; then, according to the explanation on the paper, he had changed the clothes of an ordinary scholar. In addition to the back door of the house under the other's leadership, the two soldiers who were supposed to be there have long since disappeared.
Then he made a ride (lifting the rod) and lowered the curtain to cover it, and then he was lifted danglingly, led by the domestic slave holding the lantern, and headed down the street to somewhere in the city; Over the long journey, his partner met at least four groups of patrolmen. But their attitudes and reactions are much more lax and lax.
Two groups passed by without paying attention; one group stopped to make way for them, as if they had had a tacit understanding in advance. After the last wave of encounters in the inner city, I was stopped and questioned. As soon as I heard that it was the guests who were going to the banquet in the city, they let them go. It was also an unpleasant attitude. The situation in the middle is a bit interesting.
And the final destination was not at the Cishi Mansion in Gaohao, but in the house of a Champa merchant in the city; this made him a little surprised, but after entering the hall and seeing the guests present, he didn’t feel anything. Surprised; because they are almost all the representatives of the families in the city after they have been modified and dressed, and they have not dealt with in the early years.
Immediately under the cover of singing, dancing and singing, they began to greet and salute one by one.
"Under the guise of the prestige of the palace, I have specifically invited a long history to this point. My generation really has had to suffer from it.. Please forgive me.."
One of them, as the elder, apologized and said helplessly.
"But I don't know what the noble official said in the Ya Nei about the saying of the "Ning and Han family, don't let outsiders" outside the city, it is a bit true or false..."
"That's what it said..."
Fan Chuo nodded sternly and praised, but his heart was slightly awe-inspiring. This was what he said during a private meeting in the palace in the daytime, and they all knew it.
"It was because someone asked for his order, and Mian did some hard work... It's a pity..."
"There is still something in the next, please let Chang Shi not hesitate to clarify..."
Another voice said, but it was a middle-aged man with a sad face.
"I heard that outside the city... the grass... After the teacher passed, the local tycoons were hardly spared, and the children of the tribesmen were all enslaved in the army..."
"But it's not the case, where is this false statement..."
Fan Zhuo shook his head helplessly.
". What they do is to drive out the barbarians and bandits, and the civilians and the people have more protection..."
"I have seen for myself that there are four villagers vying to be attached to it. There are still more than a dozen tutu groups attached to it... Among them are several old acquaintances."
As the topic and the question and answer unfolded, while hiding in the pavilion watching all this, he couldn't help but become anxious; what he cares most is the treatment and conditions he can get from the other party, but he has always He couldn't talk about it for a long time; so he couldn't help but gestured in secret.
"But I don't know how we should deal with ourselves after the changes in the city..."
Later, someone asked this sentence.
"I think it can't be exactly the same as before..."
Then Fan Chuo sighed without thinking, and the atmosphere suddenly became stagnant and lost his voice.
"Those who help the abusers should be liquidated, and those who sit on the sidelines have to be compensated. Others may be saved or rewarded depending on how much they contribute, but they need to be carefully calculated..."
There was an uproar and noise in the hall. Some people showed a relieved expression, some were sad and awe-inspiring, some were full of calculations and calculations, and some were thinking hard and their faces were uncertain.
"Then how is it good to be an official in the office..."
The reporters have been talking about this, and some people have raised this issue that Gao Wei is most concerned about.
"As long as there is not much crime and negligence, they can be allowed to leave it alone..."
Fan Chuo explained it tirelessly at this moment.
"If there is a desire to go, don't hinder it, but you can't wrap around other than your family's relatives..."
"If you want to keep it, you have to follow the new rules and regulations..."
Hearing the conditions here, Gao Hao couldn't help being a little disappointed, and some secretly resenting him, he was quite powerful in the past, but he secretly had the help of thieves. Why can't I just get more conditions and benefits for myself for the sake of past friendships? Maybe it would be better to delay the situation and let the situation change, he said to himself in his heart.
After the sky turned white again, in the camp outside the city that had become quiet.
"I think anyone who is hungry can eat an elephant..."
Zhou Huai'an smiled shyly at the Huo Chef pipe who was only serving food from the left and right.
"Don't worry, don't worry about it. Don't say it's a trivial elephant. Even if it's three or five, it will be made for you..."
He is called Gao Buchu, Fat Lao Gao, a big waist butcher and cooked food chef, especially good at doing dog meat; for the first time, he looks mighty in appearance but is quite cautious; but what he cooks for Zhou Huaian is big Elephant meat, which is one of the ten treasures of Guangfu, elephant nose moxibustion. .
However, he is not bragging. In fact, from Lingnan to Annan throughout the age, there are often news of wild elephants breaking into villagers' homes and being expelled or killed. Therefore, when the Rebels were recruiting and purchasing materials for use by the other side, they easily obtained a whole piece of fresh elephant nose meat.
Then the elephant nose is scalded to remove the skin from being attached, the iron drill hole is poured into multiple sauces and covered with honey, marinated for a period of time, sprinkled with lemongrass, coriander and other ingredients for fine fire roasting, and finally sliced in the width of the finger. The plate, between the crunchy skin, the inner muscles and the golden red and white of the fat, is like a natural-colored work of art, and it tastes crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.
In addition, there are yam soup, stewed beef head, five-flavored crab, rice noodle fish, jellyfish (now called jellyfish) raw, etc., as well as lean meat, pork belly marinated, cooked with oyster sauce, preserved egg, and rice. Congee, as a staple food, is always put on a large table in the open air, which makes people drool.
One of the more distinctive ones is the taro soup, which is to boil a pot of sweet taro and let it half cool, then put the cleaned live frogs in, then heat up the fire and have to hold the taro in the sink and float soup to slowly change Cooked, the freshness of the frogman is mixed with the glutinous aroma of the taro in a thick soup. It is a kind of "warm water boiled frog"-style gluttony.
It's just that Zhou Huai'an is not sensitive to frogs, which are beneficial insects, and his respect for parasites, so he switched to stone frogs that can only be caught in streams. Then, among the curious, eager, or blind gazes near, he alternated his hands like wind and rain, and swept away several large bowls of dishes, even the same small bucket of rice porridge. And empty.
After all, I kept changing transportations and circled along the walls of Daluo City in Jiaozhou. It was indeed a tiring thing to repeatedly use my ability to explore the reality and some details of these walls. The energy bar in the field of vision has been emptied several times. However, after all these hard work, it is not completely without gains and discoveries.
At this time, as a benefit equalizer, on the dozens of long tables placed in front of the other ministries, plates of grilled elephant meat and stew, only chewed about half of them.
As a matter of fact, the all-time unfavorable appetite of this leader is also a customary legend and speculation in the military. Although the military bans Pu'e (gambling), it still cannot stop the soldiers. Use some rations to bet on things related to the monk's appetite; especially for those new pawns who have not joined for a long time, this is a way of deterrence and education.
As a result, some things such as "He is the incarnation of the gluttonous beast reincarnated in Buddhism, but as an ordinary Buddhism practice can no longer provide for his needs, he has to turn to the world to receive the world’s diet, thinking of the method of cultivation." The rumors are nonsense.
At this time, a swift soldier who rushed in hurriedly brought him bad news.
"What, Jiaozhou Dagang was attacked by pirates... has lost the news..."
Zhou Huaian suddenly understood:
"This may be the back hand that the other party relies on..." (End of this chapter)
