Chapter 363 Suqian
All the way south, people live and work in peace and contentment wherever they go, and they don't pick up things at night. Although two corrupt officials were caught, most of the local officials are still very clean.

However, it was also because of the arrest of these two corrupt officials that Jiang Changning knew that before their team, officials from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple had already been arranged to inspect and manage all the way.

After all, the emperor was on tour, and everything was well-arranged, Jiang Changning felt like he was in a luxury tour group.

It's just that it's good, but it's still somewhat boring.

Jiang Changning raised the curtain with his hand. In the fields on both sides of the road, the seedlings were lush and full of vitality.

Seeing Jiang Changning looking thoughtfully at the scenery outside the window, Emperor Xuanzhi smiled and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about this prosperous age of Xuanzhi." Jiang Changning turned to look at him, the corners of his lips were raised, and his smile was like a flower, "Your Majesty is the king of the world."

"Zou Ji is more than eight feet tall, but his appearance is beautiful. Dressed in court clothes and looking into the mirror, he said to his wife: 'I am as beautiful as Xu Gong in the north of the city?' His wife said: 'The king is so beautiful, how can Xu Gong be as good as the king?'"

Jiang Changning chuckled, "Zou's wife praises Zou's beauty, it's private, and I praise His Majesty's sage, it's true."

"The empress's mouth is sweeter than honey, let me taste it." Emperor Xuanzhi stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, kissing Fangze.

The panting Jiang Changning said, "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, then make a private visit and listen to the voices of the people."

"It coincides with each other, Ningning and I really have a good understanding." Emperor Xuanzhi laughed.

In the evening of that day, a group of people stayed in a palace outside Suqian City.

The next day, Emperor Xuanzhi and Jiang Changning, accompanied by Chang Youzhong, Cao Jiang, Xiaochun, Banqin, and four guards, went to the city.

"Your Majesty, be careful where you step." Xiaochun supported Jiang Changning who was almost stepping on a rock on the ground.

Jiang Changning smiled, "Your Majesty, since we are traveling in casual clothes, shouldn't we change our address?"

"It's time to change your address. My name is Master Huang, my wife is Mrs. Huang, and you are the servants of the Huang family." Emperor Xuanzhi said.

Chang Youzhong and others said in unison: "Yes, master."

"Master, why did Suqian City get such a name?" Jiang Changning asked.

"This Suqian was named Suyu before the first year of Baoying in the Tang Dynasty. In order to avoid the name taboo of the Daizong, it was changed to Suqian." Emperor Xuanzhi said simply.

Jiang Changning diverged his thoughts, "Wouldn't Kunming want to avoid his name when his son ascends the throne in the future, so what should he change his name to?"

"This will give the brat a headache." Emperor Xuanzhi didn't bother.

Jiang Changning raised his eyebrows, and didn't bother with this question.

Suqian has a strategic position. It faces Qilu in the north and Jianghuai in the south.

In the peaceful and prosperous age, the city was very lively and prosperous.

While walking around, I suddenly heard an angry shout from the front, "Damn thief, how dare you come to the store to steal wine!"

"Something happened, let's go see the excitement." Jiang Changning said enthusiastically.

If so, Chang Youzhong and others protected the two masters and squeezed in to watch the fun.

Everyone gathered in front of a tavern, and the waiter in the tavern grabbed an eight or nine-year-old boy, who was holding a jug of wine.

The boy said anxiously: "Second brother, please do me a favor. I need this wine urgently today. I have to. Can you give me credit first? I will definitely make up for it in three days."

"No, I don't even know each other, so why should I trust you? Hurry up and return the wine to me." Xiao Er grabbed the boy with one hand and grabbed the hip flask with the other.

The boy refused to let go, and when the two saw and saw, the people watching the show didn't think it was a big deal, and they all yelled, "Beat him, beat him and he will be honest."

Some righteous people disagreed, "You can't use lynching, just hand over the little thief to the county government."

"I'm not a thief. I want this wine because I need it urgently. I said I will give you the money. Brother, I see you gave other wine on credit. Why can't you give me credit?" The boy was a little angry and a little asked aggrievedly.

"Hehehe, this wine is mine. I can sell it to whomever I want on credit, but I can't give it to you, a thief."

"I've said it all, I'm not a thief, I'm not a thief." The boy blushed with anger.

The others pretended they didn't hear it, and told Xiaoer to quickly turn him over to the county government.

Jiang Changning saw that the boy was wearing gray short brown, although there were two or three patches, but it was clean, and said, "Wait a minute, I will pay for the wine for him."

The onlookers, Xiao Er and the boy all looked over.

"Madam, do you really want to pay for this drink for him?" Xiao Er asked in disbelief.

Xiaochun showed with practical actions that what her wife said was true, and took out a bunch of copper coins, "How much is the wine?"

"This jug of wine is Yanghe Daqu, and it costs a penny." Xiaoer still didn't let go of the boy.

The price of wine is not low, what if the lady repents?
Yanghe Daqu is a famous wine, will this small shop sell this wine?

Seeing Xiao Chun's suspicious eyes, Xiao Er quickly explained, "This kid is very clever, he stole the best wine from the store as soon as he stole it, and the store relies on this wine to support the scene, only five jugs."

Cao Jiang went over, opened the lid of the pot, and smelled it, "It's Yanghe Daqu."

Only then did Xiao Chun give Xiao Er a coin, "Okay, let him go."

The boy walked up to Jiang Changning, bowed and said, "Thank you, Ma'am, which inn are you staying in? How long are you going to stay here?"

Jiang Changning couldn't tell him that he lived in the palace outside the city, let alone that he didn't know how long he was going to stay here, everything was up to Emperor Xuanzhi.

Emperor Xuanzhi answered for her, "After three days, go to Binzhi Inn to find the shopkeeper, and just return the money to him."

The boy said earnestly: "Thank you, Master, thank you Madam, the boy Zhang Jueheng will not disappoint the trust of the two of you. In three days, he will go to the inn to pay back the money."

"Okay, we trust you, go and do your work." Jiang Changning smiled.

Holding the jug in his arms, Zhang Jueheng disappeared into the crowd.

Emperor Xuanzhi and Jiang Changning didn't know that because of their intervention, Zhang Jueheng's fate had been rewritten, he was not imprisoned in the county prison, and he would become a capable minister in the court in the future.

Zhang Jueheng left, and the excitement ended.

Jiang Changning took Emperor Xuanzhi to continue shopping. In this era, the transportation is not developed enough, the population mobility is relatively small, and the things sold on the street have obvious regional characteristics.

"These pancakes are good. They are fragrant and crispy. They are also crispy. They are sweet but not greasy. They have a unique flavor. The more you eat them, the more delicious they become. Master, you should try them." Jiang Changning enjoyed his shopping and didn't pay attention The noble lady has a demeanor, and eats the biscuits when she buys them.

Emperor Xuanzhi looked at her fondly, lowered his head and took a bite of the biscuit, "It tastes really good."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Changning fell in love with the rolled noodles sold on the roadside, and Emperor Xuanzhi held her back, "It's time for lunch in a while. If you eat this, you won't be able to eat Suqian's famous dishes."

"What are the famous dishes in Suqian?" Jiang Changning asked with a smile.

"That's a lot." Emperor Xuanzhi told her that there are double-skinned crucian carp and pork head meat in Suqian.
 I was so sick, I went to bed and fell asleep, only to realize that I didn’t upload it, so I got up quickly, ouch, my memory.
