Zhenguan Chang'an Xiaofangzheng

Chapter 178 Chanshui
"The fragrant chicken juice is mixed with water gorgon powder, thickened into gravy, and poured on the cooked chicken and cooked chestnuts soaked in chicken broth. This is chestnut roast chicken."

"Swipe the frost knife left and right, the fish fillets are white and snowy. Haha, fish sticks."

"Hey, the tail of this dried fish is red, but its eyes are dull."

Li Yifu smiled triumphantly: "This is Pixian Ziyu with yellow scales and red tail. It is raised in rice fields and can be used as sauce."

It is the Tianyu that most of the later generations have abandoned except for a few places.

Fish farming in rice fields is inherently limited, so it can’t grow very large. Even in some places, in order to mass-produce field fish, fish weighing one catty will go to the field, and 12 taels will be fished out to lose fat.

In Pi County, the sauce is especially famous.

Fish meat, commonly known as sashimi, is quite popular in Tang Dynasty, and some poems often have "fish meat" in it.

Unfortunately, mapo tofu, saliva chicken, and fish-flavored pork shreds have not yet been born. Jiannan people love to eat rabbit meat, but there is no fixed dish such as spicy rabbit head.

"Old man who doesn't come out of Shu, hehe, with this delicacy, he would be willing to leave Shu for the rest of his life. Ba Shi." Fan Zheng expressed his envy for Li Yifu's good taste.

The only problem is that in Jiannan dishes, the Sichuan pepper is too heavy, and half of the lips are numb when bitten into the mouth.

"Girl, pour two cups of Jiannan Shaochun wine, and Shangguan and I will discuss it." Li Yifu urged. "Go! The Shangguan recommended me to take over as the second seat."

Look, Jiannan standard rakes his ears, probably if he didn't use Fan Zheng's signboard, he wouldn't be able to drink alcohol.

Fan Zheng laughed: "It's not a recommendation, it's a recommendation. Mr. Tang will still investigate."

Li Yifu's mother-in-law showed a sincere smile, took out the wine jar, poured wine for Fan Zheng and Li Yifu, and babbled a few words along the way: "My lord, I have made many friends, only Shangguan is willing to think about him sincerely."

Fan Zheng jokingly said, "How does my sister-in-law know that I'm not lying to brother Yifu?"

"Although women and Taoists haven't read any books, they know how to compare. Those who used to call friends with the lord, all of them were eloquent, but none of them were able to help the lord. Toddler."

"The more confident you are, the less successful you will be; the more cautious you are, the more successful you will be."

Fan Zheng respectfully said, "Blessed is Brother Yifu! You have a good wife in your family."

Li Yifu was a little uneasy: "Shangguan, a servant, why don't you come in and have a meal together."

Fan Zheng waved his hand.

Both Sun Jiu and Lu Yisheng are used to the life of going back to the workshop for meals.

Lei Qi and Lei Jiu are elusive, and sometimes Fan Zheng doesn't even know where they are.

Can't control it.

Lu Yisheng knocked on the door suddenly, and after he was admitted to the hospital, he crossed his hands to plead guilty, and said to Fan Zheng: "Lei Qi is going outside the Yanxing Gate, and the head of the gate will not allow Lei Qi to go out, saying that he is not allowed to enter and leave the city at will. Door."

Fan Zheng was speechless.

People like Lei Qi are already restricted, and you still want to leave the city.

The official position of the head of the door belongs to the head of the door, but the head of the door belongs to the Ministry of Punishment!
This is subordinate to...

Is it for the convenience of posting the wanted Lubu at the city gate?
Yanxingmen was right next to Xinchangfang, and Fan Zheng happened to be full of wine and food, so he bid farewell and swayed to Yanxingmen.

"Master Simen, this official servant, I ordered you to go out of the city to handle business, and what's the procedure?"

Looking at the head of the door who looked like a fighting cock, Fan Zheng was not angry, and asked for advice.

People are exercising their rights normally, so there is no need to be annoyed, there are always rules and regulations.

The chief of the gate glanced at Fan Zheng's green robe, crossed his hands and replied: "Shangguan noble servant, it is inconvenient to leave the city with his identity. If you want to leave, you must record the identity of the guarantor."

This speech was quite restrained, and he didn't directly say that Lei Qi was not a good person.

Fan Zheng took out the fish talisman and handed it to the head of the door: "I'm the protector."

The chief of the gate waved his brush and recorded the information in detail before letting Lei Qi go out of the city, and then presented the fish charm with both hands: "Shangguan, don't blame me, I can't help myself with this job."

Fan Zheng put away the fish talisman, and asked curiously: "I still have some contact with the officials of the imperial court, but the department is relatively unfamiliar. What do you care about?"

The head of the door smiled wryly: "Just like the name, manage the gates! All the gates and gates in the world except the imperial city, the number of people entering and leaving, the records of contacts, the taxes collected, and the corresponding amendments to government orders."

"Four sides of Chang'an, Tongguan, Lantianguan, Pujinguan, Xiguan, Dazhenguan, Longshanguan, Ziwuguan..."

For example, in the 20th year of Tianbao, Tubo seized Weizhou. It was a woman who married a woman to the Weizhou gate in the early years, and gave birth to a son.

Who will the board hit in the end?

The general guard of Weizhou must not be exempted from responsibility, and the secretary of the criminal department far away in Chang'an must also shoulder the responsibility.

For example, when Fan Zheng left Chang'an before, it was others who dealt with the people of Simensi, so it's normal not to understand.

"Although I live nearby, I have never been out of Yanxing Gate. Is there any good place outside the gate?"

Fan Zheng chatted casually.

The head of the gate waved his hand: "There are three gates on the east side of Wai Guo, Tonghua Gate in the north, Zhongchunming Gate in the north, and Yanxing Gate in the south. The land outside Yanxing Gate is on a higher terrain, nine miles away, facing Chanshui River in the east and facing Baqiao. There are many tombs in the Outer Ruins."

Chanshui?

Fan Zheng chewed the name carefully.

Chanshui is a tributary of Bashui, one of the eight waters around Chang'an. There has always been a saying "Xuanba Suchan", which means that Bashui is relatively turbid and Chanshui is relatively clear and shallow.

Alas, Li Xuanba, King Huai of Wei, might not be the source of his name.

The Ministry of Industry has four divisions.

The Ministry of Industry manages and builds;
Tuntian Division is in charge of Tuntian and Zhitian;
The Ministry of Yu is in charge of mountains, rivers, and forests, and slaughter and hunting are prohibited in the first month, May, and September of each year;
The Ministry of Water manages rivers and ponds, communicates with farmland irrigation canals, and builds or opens dams in rivers.

"Where there is water to irrigate, the grinder shall not compete with it for profit." This decree was approved and implemented by the Secretary of the Ministry of Water.

The personnel under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Water, in addition to officials, also have a large number of small servants to maintain river channels, repair side embankments, and excavate silts.

In such a huge camp, one or two outsiders are housed, which is not conspicuous at all.

An hour later, Lei Qi turned around and let the chief simen heave a sigh of relief.

This kind of people who limit the scope of action, if something goes wrong, even if the procedures are complete, they will inevitably be held responsible.

Hey, no wonder more and more officials would rather not do anything.

Where is the root, do you have no idea?

Lei Qi nodded slightly, Fan Zheng bid farewell to the chief simen, and hurriedly took people back to Dunhuafang to arrange meals.

Back at the Dingyuan General's Mansion, after finishing the meal, after Sun Jiu and Lu Yisheng left, Lei Qi walked up to Fan Zheng, crossed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have made it clear that the person who sent the letter before came from the labor tent by the Chan River. It's a pity that someone blocked it and couldn't check it carefully."

Expected.

"I've been promoted to a sixth-rank official, and now I have nine servants. Apart from the existing Lu Yisheng, Sun Jiu, and Ku Zhenzhen, the two of you can also be included."

Fan Laoshi found a lot of miscellaneous households to enter the mansion, but he didn't make any contribution. Why did Fan Zheng let them enjoy the treatment of servants?

Servants are not restricted by lovers and miscellaneous households.
