Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 932 The prosperity of Yangshan County
When leaving the next day, Liu Yunxiang and his wife went to see Magistrate Hu and his wife again. Mrs. Hu was still silly and foolish, while Mr. Hu managed to gather his energy to take care of his daughter's funeral.

"Master Hu, when we settle down in Liangshan County, we will send someone to deliver a message to you. If you need any help in the future, please feel free to say anything." Liu Yunxiang said.

Commander Hu cupped his fists and saluted the two of them, "Hu will remember your great kindness, and so will you. If you need help from Hu, just ask."

"Okay." Liu Yunxiang responded.

The distance between Pinghu County and Liangshan County is not far. It takes one and a half hours by horseback and half a day by horse carriage.They left Pinghu County in the morning and arrived at the gate of Liangshan County after noon.

Because Liangshan County is an east-west fortress, many caravans pass through here, so Liangshan County is more prosperous than Pinghu County.At this time, there was a long queue of caravans at the city gate, and they could only enter the city after being inspected.

When Yan Mu and others arrived, the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate asked them in great detail where they came from and what they were doing in Liangshan County.

"My lord, you are so strict in your investigation, what happened in the city?"

The officer and soldier sighed, "Brands have been rampant recently, and people in Liangshan County travel east and west every day. It is easy for thieves to sneak in. For the safety of the people in the city, the investigation must be stricter."

Yan Mu nodded, "That's indeed the case."

"But don't worry too much. The security in Liangshan County is still very good."

After a few brief words with the officers and soldiers, they were released into the city.Liu Yunxiang got off the carriage and walked on the street with Yan Mu.

Yangshan County is indeed very prosperous. There are many shops on the streets, customers come in and out, and there are many stalls on the streets with constant hawking sounds.The people carry shopping baskets, and it can be seen from their clothes and the baskets that they live a prosperous life.

After passing an inn, the inn steward sent out the leader of the caravan that came to the door.

"I'm really sorry, our inn is full, why don't you look in front?"

The leader of the caravan said helplessly, "We have already asked four inns, and they are all full."

"Since the end of the wars between Darong and Southern Jin, the four countries have been eager to restore their national strength, open up their borders, and allow trade to flow smoothly. Our Liangshan County is also an east-west fortress. There are countless caravans entering and leaving the city every day, so every family The inn is full. While it's still early, go ahead and look for it. If it's a little later, you might end up sleeping on the streets tonight."

The leader of the caravan had no choice but to continue moving forward.

Just as the caravan left, a woman came over carrying two loads of steamed buns. "Boss, the steamed buns have come out. Can you count them?"

"No need to count, we are old friends, just send it to the kitchen directly."

"Oh, by the way, how long will the Da Rong caravan stay here? I'll figure out whether I have enough flour at home."

"It's said that it will take another three days. Hey, the Da Rong people like to eat steamed buns, but we Beijin people don't eat them, so I can only ask you to make them."

"Oh, I'm looking forward to your caravan coming to Da Rong every day. If I sell more buns and save more money, I can build a new house for my son and marry him next year."

"That's a sure thing. Business is good this year and even better next year."

The two were chatting and laughing, and the woman put the bun inside.

Liu Yunxiang pulled Yan Mu's head, shook his head and said with a smile: "I actually thought Liangshan County was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den!"

The old woman scolded her for not caring about the life and death of the people, and the bank manager also asked her to come and see for herself. This made her have bad assumptions about Liangshan County, but this was not the case.

"It seems that the governor of Liangshan County is a good official. He can protect the people from the persecution of the bandits and make the city so prosperous. But Leng Yunxia must have his intention in letting us come to Liangshan County. Let's go again Just watch and watch.”

Sanbao woke up and wanted to come down and go with them.After he was picked up by Yan Mu, he ran away. He saw a man selling candied haws on the left, and a man selling wooden horses on the right. When he left the market, the carriage behind him was full of things.

Sanbao ran forward with a bag of preserved fruits in his hand, but unexpectedly a little girl rushed out from the alley and knocked Sanbao down.The preserved fruits in Sanbao's hand were scattered all over the floor. The little girl seemed to be hungry, so she picked up one and stuffed it into her mouth.

The preserved fruit had a core, and the little girl choked after eating it too quickly. Yan Mu hurriedly stepped forward to help her spit it out.After she vomited it out, the little girl had to pick up preserved fruits on the ground to eat, so Liu Yunxiang hurriedly got her a bag of pastries.

The little girl devoured her food as if she hadn't eaten for a long time, and her clothes and face were dirty.At this time, two young men wearing cyan bunts came running towards us. When the little girl saw them, she turned pale with fright, got up and ran away.Those two young men were very fast, so they chased her a few steps and caught her.

"Let me go! Let me go quickly! Help!"

Seeing that the two people were about to take away the little girl, Yan Mu stopped them.

"Who are you? Why did you arrest her?"

One of the young men looked at Yan Mu first and then asked, "Are you from outside the country?"

"Yes." Yan Mu said.

"We are from Wanshan Tang. You can ask around, but we are not bad people."

As they said that, the two people wanted to take the little girl away again, but seeing how hard the little girl struggled and kept shouting "help", Yan Mu stopped them again.

The young man was quite helpless, "She is an orphan. Our Wanshan Hall is the Futian Court run by the government and is specially designed to adopt these children."

Several people passed by and helped confirm.

"They are from Wanshantang, they are not bad people."

"I know it's my fault. Her father was a gambler and owed a lot of gambling debts. He wanted to sell the two of them. Her mother got angry and killed her father with a kitchen knife. She also wiped his neck, leaving such an orphan. female."

"Fortunately, there is Wanshan Hall, otherwise what would this little girl do?"

Yan Mu and Liu Yunxiang felt relieved when they heard what passers-by said.

"But she seems unwilling to go with you." Liu Yunxiang said.

The young man sighed, "She is still young and doesn't know that her parents are dead. She always runs away secretly, saying that she wants to go home to find her parents. This time she sneaked out and we have been looking for her for three days." "

After saying that, another young man picked up his little daughter and the two of them walked forward.

"Help! Dad, help me!"

The little girl cried and howled, hitting the person carrying her with her fists, and finally asked Liu Yunxiang and others for help.

"Uncle and aunt, please save me!"

Liu Yunxiang watched them take the little girl away, then turned around and sighed, "Let's go, then Nan'an Inn should be right in front."

They met a businessman from Darong in Longcheng. He opened an inn in Liangshan County. He said that the business was not very good and he had closed the inn and was about to return to Darong.

Liu Yunxiang thought that they would have a place to stay when they arrived in Liangshan County, so he bought the title deed of the inn from the businessman.

"There are many merchants traveling from north to south in Liangshan County, so the inn business should be very good." Liu Yunxiang said puzzled.

Yan Mu nodded, "Maybe there are other reasons."

Sanbao seemed to have something on his mind and looked back from time to time.

"Sambo, what's wrong?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

Sanbao pouted and said, "That little sister, she has a wound on her arm. Someone must have hit her."
