Chapter 546 Fishing in Fenshui

Taiyuan.

Control the mountains and rivers, and stand on the shoulders of the world.

The key points of the four frontiers control the capitals of Wuyuan.

As an ancient capital with a history of more than 2000 years, Taiyuan City has too many places to praise.

It was the Xun Wu Northern Expedition of the Jin State that was defeated without end, and the Chidi Bie clan, who had brought Taiyuan into the territory of the Jin State.

In the second year of King Zhuangxiang of Qin Dynasty, Qin general Meng Ao attacked Zhao State, and took 37 cities of Yuci and Langmeng. Taiyuan entered Qin Dynasty.

It was the fourth year of Emperor Xian Chuping, and it was Gongsun Zan's sphere of influence.

It was the third year of Jian'an, occupied by Yuan Shao.

It is the spring of the 11th year of Jian'an, owned by Cao Cao.

It started in the century-old prosperous Tang Dynasty when the great ancestor Li Yuan served as the consolation ambassador of Hedong Road in Shanxi, stayed behind in Taiyuan, and led Jinyang Palace Supervisor.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Taiyuan Prefecture governed six prefectures and 22 counties, the prefecture governed [-] counties, and the prefecture governed nine counties.

Taiyuan City occupies a crucial position in the entire layout of the Ming Dynasty.

Taiyuan City is adjacent to the border town of Datong in the north and Henan Road in the Central Plains in the south.If you control Taiyuan, you can go outside the pass when you go out, and you can enter the Central Plains when you enter, and you can go left and right from Shandong to Hexi.

Wangfu and Sansifu counties gather here.

Countless gentry and merchants gathered.

When the sun rises, the rising sun climbs over the mountain peak from the east side of the Taihang Mountains, the morning sun spreads, and the morning light gently shines on Taiyuan City.

On the official road in the south of the city, the chief envoy of Shanxi Road, Si Yamen, had already sealed off the entire south of the city as soon as he opened the city gate.

From the official road outside the south city all the way to the city gate, and then to the main street of the Sansi Yamen in the city, there are officers and soldiers on duty everywhere, and the common people are strictly prohibited from approaching and passing through.

According to the previous news, His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun will arrive outside the city of Taiyuan today.

From early in the morning, Yue Xinghui, the county magistrate of Quyang County, led people to arrange outside Nancheng.

The open space beside the official road has been cleared and leveled, and wooden platforms have been paved.

The two groups of Taiyuan gong and drum teams have already changed into bright red clothes and put on dinner guys. They will beat gongs and drums to welcome the emperor's grandson's northern tour as soon as they arrive.

Yue Xinghui looked at the empty official road to the south, and looked around at the guards, officers and soldiers gathered around him, with a look of anxiety on his face.

God knows when the grandson of the emperor will be outside the city of Taiyuan, but now none of the chief officials of the Sansi Yamen and Taiyuan Mansion have come.

None of the representatives of the gentry, merchants and merchants in Taiyuan City that had been agreed upon had been there.

Yue Xinghui raised his head to look at the sky, so he waved his sleeves and hid under the awning beside him.

Da da da.

The sound of horseshoes came from outside the arbor.

Yue Xing, who had just sat down and hadn't touched the teacup, immediately stood up, walked to the edge of the awning, and looked up at the front of the official road.

I saw two servants from the county government riding over with their bodies covered in dew.

"Where is the magistrate?"

"Where is the magistrate?"

In the distance, two guards who had been running outside all night called and asked people on the official road with dry voices.

Someone ahead turned and pointed to the arbor.

Soon, the two guards drove their horses to the shed, before the horses stopped, they turned over and jumped off their backs, and arrived in front of Yue Xinghui.

"Reporting to the county lord, His Royal Highness Taisun is in the team going north, and will arrive in Taiyuan City after noon."

Yue Xinghui couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and smoothed his messy clothes.

"It's okay...it's okay...it's still too late."

Yue Xinghui muttered, then turned to look at the officials of the county government: "Come on, don't do anything today, just wait here for His Royal Highness Taisun. Let the gongs and drums team get ready, Ask the county government to bring wine and meat, feed them enough, and when the highness comes down, I will beat my master vigorously!"

The magistrate of Yangqu County nodded: "These are all arranged, don't be in a hurry."

Yue Xinghui had a cold face: "Why are you not in a hurry? It's this time, and no one from the third division or the government office has arrived. If the grandson comes, can our county government handle it?"

The county magistrate directed a few words to the county book beside him, and then said with a smile on his face: "Since the third division and the government office sent a message early in the morning, I think they already knew when the grandson will arrive in Taiyuan. City. County respect, don’t worry, even if something happens, it’s up to you.”

Yue Xinghui hummed twice and stopped talking.

If something happened to Taiyuan City, it would not be a small matter, it would be a big matter, which could poke a hole in the sky.

"Where are the superiors?"

Yue Xinghui finally asked a little worried.

The magistrate took a step forward and said in a low voice, "They're all fishing in Fenshui."

Yue Xinghui turned his head and looked at the magistrate in a daze: "You're still fishing at this time?"

……

"Who is that person next to Guo Shenzheng?"

On the bank of Fen River in the southwest of Taiyuan City, countless officials, guards, and officers and soldiers stood on the bank, looking at the few people fishing with umbrellas on the trestle bridge.

Someone asked on the shore.

The people around smiled and looked at the six people sitting under the umbrella on the trestle bridge.

Shanxi Daozuo Buzheng, according to the inspector, all command envoys, Zuo participated in politics, Taiyuan magistrate.

There is also Li Wenxiang, the leader of Shanxi merchants in Shanxi Province and the owner of the Lifu compound.

And a middle-aged man in brocade standing behind Guo Yuchuang, the chief envoy of Shanxi Road, Si Yamen, who participated in politics on the left.

"Oh, that." The man said with a low smile, "It's a businessman from Xing County. Last year, a son of his family was elected, so he started wearing brocade brightly."

"A merchant, why did he come here? He just started wearing brocade, but he didn't know how to hide it."

The person who explained continued with a smile on his face, "It's not that there is a child in the family who has been promoted, and he is about to go to Beijing to take the public examination. I heard that he wants to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs, so it can be regarded as suitable for family education gone."

"Are you here to ask for a relationship? Then you should also find the chief envoy."

The man nodded: "Where does the chief envoy take care of such trivial matters? They have never been handed over to Guo Shenzheng for disposal. I heard that this person is not only seeking relationships, but also hopes to enter the middle system and share a border. Food and grass supply."

"My heart is really big."

The person who spoke first couldn't help but tease.

The people around him sneered and said, "I've heard that this man donated half of his family's resources to get the qualification to stand behind several Shangguan today. He also heard that half of the food he earned in the future will also be offered as offerings. Otherwise, do you think the superiors can let this vulgar person stand here?"

"It's a coincidence that this person has to meet the grandson's visit to Taiyuan City today."

"Just wait, isn't the emperor's grandson arriving after noon?"

The people on the shore looked at the Zhengyin officials on the trestle bridge who were in charge of the entire Shanxi Road, and whispered.

On the trestle bridge, the chief officer of the Shanxi Dao Sansi Yamen is holding a fishing rod and enjoying himself.

A few people have not spoken until now, and the merchant standing over there from Xing County kept his hands folded, bowed his waist and bowed his head in silence, even venting his breath carefully.

This season is not a good time for fishing.

The fish situation in early winter is far worse than that after spring.

After half a sound, when the temperature gradually increased.

Li Wenxiang, who was sitting on the farthest edge, said: "It seems that today's fishing is fruitless. I have already told the mansion that a banquet will be delivered later. After a few people have eaten, they can go to the south of the city." There."

Li Wenxiang looked at the fish float in front of him that had been floating on the water for a long time, with a smile on his face.

How can a straight hook catch fish.

At this time, just waiting for one of the chief officers of the three divisions to catch a big fish in Fenshui, today's fishing is over.

Sun Gong, chief minister of Shanxi Daozuo, said softly, "There's no need to rush, that person won't arrive until after noon. We're going early, and it will only make people in Yangqu County nervous."

Changsun Gong has been an official in Shanxi Dao for nearly 20 years. In the absence of a right-hand governor in the governor's office, he is almost in charge of all the affairs of Shanxi Dao.

Changsun Gong, who is nearly fifty years old, holds a lot of power and has a well-maintained face, so he can't tell his true age.

The inspector Zhou Yunkun, who had a dark complexion, smiled and said, "Uncle Fang is sympathetic to his subordinates, and this is a blessing for everyone on the Shanxi Road."

Zhou Yunkun, the inspector of Shanxi Dao, had also been an official in Shanxi Dao for fifteen years, and he was in charge of learning and rectification.

Changsun Gong replied: "You can't do anything there, and it's still in the way. It's better to broaden your horizons by the Fen River."

"The three guards and horses of Prince Jin's Mansion have left Taiyuan City a few days ago and transferred to Ningwu."

At this moment, Liu Liang, the Commander of Shanxi Daodu, who was wearing a military officer's robe, spoke in a low voice.

Changsun Gong and Zhou Yunkun turned their heads and looked over at the same time.

Both of them frowned slightly.

Liu Liang continued: "His Royal Highness Prince Jin is concerned about the border military affairs, presumably he is preparing for the spring next year, and waits for the imperial court to order the Northern Expedition to make preparations."

Zhou Yunkun nodded, and looked sideways at Changsun Gong: "His Royal Highness Prince Jin has always been keen to personally lead troops out of Guanbei. But now that the New Year is approaching, apart from the soldiers and horses in the guards, shouldn't other places also take a rest?"

At this time, Li Wenxiang, who was beside him, had already looked over, his eyes moving silently.

Changsun Gong said in a deep voice: "This year's harvest is good, the charcoal fire money at the end of the year should be enough, let's send it out early. Let the people in the mine outside also discuss in advance, and those who should go home for the New Year will go home for the New Year, busy with work Throughout the year, there is always a family reunion for a hot meal.”

Song Shenggui, the magistrate of Taiyuan Prefecture, who was sitting with Li Wenxiang, immediately smiled and said, "That's why the officials all said that the chief envoy is sympathetic to his subordinates. People can live happily ever after."

After speaking, Song Shenggui quietly turned his head and glanced at Li Wenxiang beside him.

Li Wenxiang nodded with a smile on his face.

Let the people in the coal mines everywhere prepare to go home for the New Year. When the time comes, there will be fewer officials and guards in the mines, and it will be easier for them to do things.

wow.

When a matter on the trestle bridge was quietly arranged, there was a sudden sound of splashes on the surface of Fenshui in front.

Everyone looked over.

Guo Yuchuang, the chief envoy of Shanxi Province who had never spoken, was already holding the fishing rod tightly with both hands, and fell backwards to offset the big fish that was hooked underwater.

"quick!"

Guo Yuchuang spoke concisely, but his eyes were wide open, and there was a hint of joy at the corner of his mouth.

I am going to win today's top spot.

At this time, there were only these few people on the trestle bridge, and there was no one else.

But the fishing rod in Guo Yuchuang's hand was getting more and more bent, and was dragged into the water by the big underwater fish.

Just when people are waiting for the fishing rod to be broken.

Puff.

Before a few people could react, they saw a figure jumping into Fenshui in this early winter.

Crash.

The river water was constantly cut apart by the hands of the person who jumped into the water.

When the man reached his position, he took a deep breath and stabbed underwater.

Immediately, the surface of the water became quiet.

The fishing rod in Guo Yuchuang's hand also loosened, and several people around him stretched their heads to look over.

"A person from Naxing County?"

Zhou Yunkun looked at Guo Yuchuang who was still holding a fishing rod in his hand.

Taiyuan Magistrate Song Shenggui glanced back, then nodded and said, "It's that person, but I never thought that this person would be so decisive."

Changsun Gong just said lightly: "It's a dare to fight."

Guo Yuchuang had a smile on his face, as usual.

"Could it be drowning?"

Li Wen looked at the calm water, joking aside.

At this time, a ball of water suddenly exploded on the water surface, and the merchant from Xing County, who was wearing a brocade, was already clasping a big fish with the length of his forearm tightly in his hands, and he came out of the water with a face full of joy.

Li Wenxiang couldn't help but exclaimed: "He was caught!"

And the man had already dunked the gills of the fish with one mouthful, and swam to the bottom of the trestle with one hand.

At this time, someone had already rushed over from the shore, stretched out his hand and pulled him out of the water, with admiration in his eyes.

The man didn't dare to stop, he knelt behind Guo Yuchuang with the fish in his hands.

"Participating in politics, the fish are caught."

Guo Yuchuang turned his head to look at the people on the left and right, and then looked down at the Xingxian merchant who was kneeling in front of him, holding the big fish high with both hands.

The Xingxian merchant lowered his head, but his heart was beating violently under his chest.The future of his own son, the future of the family, is now held in his hands, success or failure depends on today.

Guo Yuchuang looked at the merchant in front of him with calm eyes.

It seems that this kind of person who seeks glory and wealth, he has seen too much.

He knew exactly what these people wanted.

"After the beginning of spring, you will be asked to collect and deliver the grain and grass in Yulinwei."

What he said indifferently made the merchants in Xingxian County full of joy, carefully put down the fish with both hands, and kowtowed on the trestle bridge.

"Thank you, villain, for participating in politics."

Guo Yuchuang waved his hand: "This fish is too big, take it home and eat it."

"The villain must have fried the fish bones and ate them into his stomach."

Guo Yuchuang nodded, and then looked at the people on the left and right.

Changsun Gong got up first, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the shore.

The rest of the people got up one after another and followed.

Only when there was no one on the trestle bridge, the merchant from Xing County, who was kneeling on the ground, dared to raise his head slowly.

Seeing no one else on the trestle bridge, the Xingxian merchant turned his head cautiously.

At this time, there was also no one on the shore.

He was the only one left, with the big fish lying on the trestle in front of him, slapping the trestle with its tail feebly from time to time.
