Chapter 133 Yunguang
Chang'an County
The [-] soldiers of the Guoyong Camp of the Jingying, led by Cai Quan, arrived at Chang'an County at noon on the second day. Because they had traveled [-] miles in the middle, it was getting late, so they called Da'an Post in the middle of the post. Stay overnight.
Because it is late August, although it is noon, the sun is not dazzling.
Jia Heng sat on the horse and looked at Chang'an County not far away. The city was neither high nor low, the gate was wide open, and pedestrians kept coming and going.
On the top of the city stands a large banner with the Chinese character "Han" in black and red patterns, fluttering in the wind, and there are hidden soldiers patrolling.
Jingzhao Prefecture governs [-] counties including Chang'an and Wannian. As the three auxiliary places of Gyeonggi Province, the counties adjacent to Shenjing City. In the post of garrison, [-] soldiers are in charge of guarding the county seat. Unless there is an order from the Ministry of War, no soldier or soldier can be mobilized.
"Brother Heng, the sergeants are exhausted, let's rest before entering the city." Cai Quan looked back at the listless soldiers, and said, "I'll go to Chang'an Jiedu to send the survey issued by the Ministry of War first, and then get some For wine and meat, let’s sacrifice to the Wu Zang Temple first.”
Jia Heng nodded, even if he didn't have to think about it, he knew that there were bandits in Chang'an County, but for now, he could only go into the city.
Because they had few soldiers on this trip, they naturally did not bring auxiliary soldiers with them, but only some rations with the army. The logistics and military supplies had to be provided by the posthouses and county towns along the way, so it was impossible to go deep into Cuihua Mountain alone.
Otherwise, the old soldiers behind them would be the first to jump.
Jia Heng thought for a while, then said to Cai Quan, "I'm going to the county seat right away, let the soldiers cheer up first, line up and go into the county seat for lunch."
Cai Quan responded and ordered the two hundred households beside him.
As the military order was handed down, the soldiers who were hungry, thirsty and listless, cheered up after hearing the words, and reluctantly organized the queue, holding the flag, five people in a row, cavalry in front, infantry behind, and marched towards the county. go.
Not long after, Huang Tai, the guard of Chang'an County who received the report, was having lunch with his family when he got the servant's notice, put down his chopsticks, and said: "Prepare your official uniforms. The officers and soldiers from the Beijing camp are coming. I'll go to meet them."
The son beside him, Huang Mao, was 14 years old, with delicate features, red lips and white teeth, said: "Father, this is the third trip to the Beijing camp. No one can cure the big eyes of Cuihua Mountain."
Because the head of the Cuihua bandits was surnamed Zhang, and his eyes were as big as copper bells, he said this.
"Eat your food well, boy, and you have to go to school later." Huang Tai was served by his wife, Mrs. Zhao, and was wearing a sixth-rank military officer's official uniform. Wearing a short beard, he took the Yanling knife handed by the old servant at the side, and smiled at his wife, Mrs. Zhao: "This boy, I have to tell him a matchmaker in a few days, and he is not in shape every day. "
Mrs. Zhao glanced at her son dotingly, and said, "Your son has someone in his heart. On August [-]th the day before yesterday, he fell in love with a girl named Jin Geer. I asked someone to find out..."
"Mother..." Huang Mao said anxiously with an embarrassed expression on his face.
"It's her family's good fortune that my family's Mao'er has a crush on her. I'll tell your father that I will propose marriage to you tomorrow." Mrs. Zhao said with a smile.
Huang Tai said with a smile: "After a few days, I will go to the Zhang family to propose a marriage. I don't know if the Zhang family girl has big eyes or not."
Joking with his own son, Huang Tai straightened his clothes and said to Zhao Shi who was beside him, "I'm going."
"Go, master." Mrs. Zhao reached out and patted the thread on Huang Tai's shoulder, and said with a gentle smile.
Huang Tai took his own soldiers, rode on a horse, and left Chang'an County. When he arrived at the Chang'an Jiedushi's office, his eyes were a little gloomy, and he thought, "This time the capital camp came, most likely they will return without success."
As an official in the same county, some things are kept secret. The Chang'an Jiedu envoy Yunguang was bribed by the Cuihua bandits. I saw some doorways.
But his temperament is weak, and he is afraid of Yunguang's status as a member of the Jia family, even if he has some evidence, he dare not report it to the higher authorities.
If he couldn't say it, he sent it to Yunguang's desk.
Huang Tai led two soldiers, rode to the gate of the city, turned over and got off the horse, just in time to hear his brother-in-law, Baihu Zhao Yan, who was guarding the gate, talking to the general of the Beijing camp.
Walking a few steps quickly, just as he was about to approach him with a smile, he was taken aback suddenly, his pupils shrank, "Is this the Flying Fish suit, Jin Yiwei?"
There was a storm in his heart, "What is Jin Yiwei doing here?"
Bite the bullet and was waiting to go forward, suddenly felt stared at by a pair of sharp eagle-like eyes, and saw the leader boy looking at him indifferently.
"I've seen you in a lowly position." Chang'an Guard is the sixth rank, while Deputy Qianhu of the Beijing Camp is actually the sixth rank. The two officials are at the same level. Naturally, the person Chang'an guard claims to be an adult is obviously coming for Jia Heng.
The color of the patches in the flying fish uniform worn by Jia Heng is still slightly different, and it is the official uniform of a fourth-rank military officer.
"Huang Shoubei." Jia Heng's expression was indifferent, and his voice was cold. He had already learned the name of Chang'an Shoubei from the Shoucheng primary school just now, Huang Tai, 36 years old.
"The Jiedu envoy of Chang'an is Yun Guang, so it's a good match. This Huang Tai is obviously taken by Sister Feng for 3000 taels of silver, and Chang'an, who has lost his son, is on guard." Show nothing.
"I don't know how to address this Commander-in-Chief?" Huang Tai couldn't hold back the thoughts of this young dignitary, he cupped his hands and asked.
As for why he is a powerful young man, the young man suddenly ascended to a high position, except for the sons of princes, he hardly thinks about it.
Jia Heng said indifferently: "Jia Heng."
Huang Tai's heart sank, Jia's?
With a smile on his face, he said: "It turns out that it is after the Second Duke Ning Rong, no wonder, when I see it from afar, I feel that I am very heroic."
Jia Heng took a look at Huang Tai, and said in a gentle voice, "Huang Shoubei, I was ordered by the Holy Order to accompany the army to wipe out the Cuihua bandits. You are guarding Chang'an County. I have many details to ask you later."
When Huang Tai heard this, he didn't even dare to say it.
Afterwards, Cai Quan talked to Huang Tai again and asked, "Yun Jiedu can be in the government office."
Yun Guang is the envoy of Chang'an Jiedu, a fourth-rank military general, so naturally he will not go out of the city to meet a deputy Qianhu of the Beijing camp. As for the county magistrate of Chang'an, because the autumn grain collection is imminent, he has gone to the village to supervise the affairs.
"Master Jiedu is now in the government office, Cai Qianhu can come with me later." Huang Tai said with a smile on his face, then turned to look at Jia Heng, and said: "Master Jia, let the brothers rest in the barracks first, Later, the humble staff will prepare some wine and meat for labor."
Chang'an County has received the imperial army several times to suppress the bandits, and they are obviously familiar with it, even the vacant barracks are ready-made.
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Lao Huang is on guard."
Seeing Jia Heng's polite words, Huang Tai couldn't help but smile wider, and stretched out his hand to invite several people into the county.
Seven or 800 soldiers, no more, no less, neighing and horses, lined up through the bustling streets of Chang'an County.
Surrounded by the people on the side of the road, Jia Heng's ears were keen, and he heard some comments, "This capital has sent troops to suppress bandits again, and it is going to send fish and meat to these old men."
At this time, an old lady carrying a vegetable basket and a Jingchai cloth skirt shook her head and said.
"The bandits are getting more and more suppressed, and the officers and soldiers didn't fuck off that time." Walking to a blacksmith shop, the blacksmith, sweating profusely and muscular, talked about the hammer.
"There is no way to suppress bandits, but to disturb the people." An old man wearing a long gown and a goatee, sitting on a bamboo stool, reading a book in his hand, said Cang Sheng without raising his head.
Along the way, amidst the noise and noise, similar words can be heard endlessly.
Jia Heng's face paused, and he looked at Cai Quan who was on the side, and saw that his expression was a bit embarrassing, and he clearly heard the pointing words.
Then he raised his head to look at Huang Tai who was leading the way, with a calm expression on his face.
"The government army has repeatedly attacked and suppressed, disturbing the local area, but to no avail. This in itself is a huge harm to the prestige of the center."
Jia Heng's eyes flashed, and he thought.
Following Huang Tai's entry into the camp, Cai Quan settled down the generals and schools under his command, and then took the Ministry of War to investigate, and said to Jia Heng: "Brother Heng, I'm going to meet Jiedu."
"Let's go together." Jia Heng paused, glanced at Huang Tai, and said in a deep voice.
Cai Quan's official position is lower than Yun Guang's, so he might not be able to make things difficult for him, so Yun Guang would not be too unreasonable if he followed him.
By the way, I also touched the situation of Yunguang.
The officers and soldiers have repeatedly attacked and suppressed, but if you count him this time, it is actually the third time.
Yunguang was the Jiedu of Chang'an, and he was also suppressed and arrested. A group of 600 bandits, if the officers and soldiers didn't know the geography, it would be understandable that the campaign was futile. Don't know anything about the county's activities?
There must be something strange about it!
Chang'an Jiedu government office——
This is an official hall that integrates the official government office and the house.
In the local area, government offices are often built according to this, which is convenient for officials to work.
As a military officer of the fourth grade, the Chang'an Jiedushi built the yamen magnificently, with carved beams and painted buildings, and the red pillars in front of the gate stood in the realm of soldiers wearing armor and holding Yanling knives. Down, reflecting the dazzling light.
According to the Han system, there are actually restrictions on the specifications of the mansion, such as the number of copper nails on the gate, there are regulations.
However, since the imperial dynasty lasted a hundred years, the laws and regulations have been relaxed, regardless of the capital city, there are more or less violations in the localities.
In the official hall, Yun Guang was also having lunch, accompanied by several concubines and wives,
Yun Guang was in his early fifties, with gray hair, a thin face, high cheekbones and thin lips, and a shallow scar on the left cheek, extending from the corner of the eyebrow to the nose, adding a bit of viciousness to it.
At that time, he was also a general in the Beijing camp. He was a servant under Jia Daihua, the first-class supernatural general, and the Jiedu envoy of the Beijing camp.
Therefore, he called himself a disciple of the Jia family.
"Master, then Jia Heng should be in Chang'an County in the next two days." The fourth aunt, Ru Niang, said with a smile.
"It's probably today. This person caused Brother Jia from the East Mansion to enter the Jingzhao Mansion, and disturbed the master so much that I haven't closed my eyes so much these days." Yun Guang frowned and said.
Lai Sheng contacted the thieves in Cuihua Mountain. Although he didn't intervene directly, he also hinted that a confidant under his command was a matchmaker. His original intention was to sell Jia Zhen, but he never thought...
"Didn't the master say that he has become the patriarch of the Jia clan? When he comes over, will the master see you?" Ru Niang asked with a smile.
"No! Just say I'm sick, and let your elder brother welcome you. Don't short him for military supplies and luggage, so that others won't say that I don't want to miss my benefactor's old love." Yun Guang smiled lightly, just Because of the scar on his face, this smile is somewhat ferocious.
He sneered in his heart, if it was broken here, he wouldn't be a patriarch!
He must do things without revealing any flaws on the surface.
At this moment, the servant outside the door suddenly ran to the eaves of the flower hall and said, "Master, master, the Jinyiwei from Beijing is here."
"What?" Yun Guang's face changed when he heard the words, and he asked in surprise, "Where is the person?"
What is Jin Yiwei doing here?Could it be?
impossible……
