Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Xu Zizhen lifted his spirits: "How is it?"

Qian Tongzhi said: "This bastard is really a fucking traitor. I saw with my own eyes that he wrote a letter and someone secretly sent it out of the city."

"Not bad, not bad." Xu Zizhen rubbed his chin and smiled. As expected, he guessed right, so things would be easier.

Qian Tongzhi asked, "What should I do next? Should I find someone to follow me? Or..."

Xu Zizhen yawned: "Sleep, fatten up." After speaking, he turned and entered the room, and shut the stunned Qian Tongzhi outside.

……

In the following days, Xu Zizhen lived very leisurely. As the end of the new year was approaching, he slept until he woke up naturally every day, and then took Wen Xian and Kou Qiaoyi to the streets to buy new year's goods. The two princesses of Tubo had special identities, so he could not be able to accompany them. Yes, besides, the goddess obviously didn't want to see him, so she simply handed it over to Li Meng to accompany him.

Although Lanzhou is located in a remote place, it is a big city after all, and it is not difficult to buy serious New Year's goods. After a few days, Xu Zizhen's house was already piled up, and he spent a lot of money, but he didn't care at all. But the first New Year after he came to the Northern Song Dynasty had a different meaning, so naturally it had to be more lively.

It was the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Zizhen woke up early, asked Qian Tongzhi to find a car, pulled all the New Year's goods in the house into the car, and took Wen Xian and Kou Qiaoyi out of the house.

It was rare for Xu Zizhen to have his intentions so early. Of the 71 soldiers in the Shenji Battalion, 40 of them died in the last battle at Jinchengguan. Later, more than [-] died in the battle outside Xingzi Fort. Bufen’s old brothers have all been cremated. The ashes were taken back to the Northwest Road for burial. As for the remaining Lanzhou natives, what Xu Zizhen has to do today is to pay New Year's greetings to the families of the Shenjiying brothers who died in battle, and send a New Year's gift and a pension .

Now in Lanzhou, who doesn't know the god of war Xu Zizhen, he usually lives in the mansion, but now he was recognized by people not long after he appeared. Surrounded him excitedly, wanting to see the true face of the hero.

Xu Zizhen was really helpless, so he had to stand on the shaft of the car and shouted loudly: "Everyone, young and old, girls and daughters-in-law, I will pick a day for you to have a good look at later, but can I live for a while today, I have to give it to you." Happy New Year to my brothers."

Someone in the crowd laughed and said, "The day after tomorrow is the big day, isn't it a bit early for you to pay New Year's greetings?"

Xu Zizhen's expression darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "I'm going to worship those brothers who died in battle. They left their lives outside Jincheng Pass for me and Lanzhou. I can't bring them back to life. What I can do now is to wish their parents and relatives a new year, and to express my little care."

The noisy crowd suddenly became silent, and the common people silently cleared a road in front of the car. The battle outside Jincheng Pass was extremely thrilling, and if there was a slight difference, Lanzhou would not be safe. The role of Shenji Battalion must not be underestimated, even now All the young people in Lanzhou City aim to enter the Shenji Camp and work hard all day long for the glory of these three words.

Xu Zizhen's face was full of solemnity, and he cupped his fists around: "Thank you everyone!"

The carriage continued to move forward, and someone yelled: "Everyone in the Shenji camp is a good man and a good man. The God of War is going to pay a New Year's greeting, so let's join in the fun and cheer!"

"it is good!"

This proposal was immediately approved by everyone, and the crowd automatically formed a long queue, following Xu Zizhen's car in a mighty manner. Along the way, curious people saw it and asked about it. After learning the answer, many people joined in. After entering, when Xu Zizhen arrived at the first household, there were already hundreds of people in the long queue behind the car.

Such momentum really scared the old man who opened the door, but when Xu Zizhen handed him a new year's gift and a silver coin, the old man couldn't help crying, being a big soldier is tantamount to selling his life to The imperial court, those who were lucky could still receive the corpses, but those who were unlucky could not even get the ashes back.

After the war ended, Xu Zizhen had arranged for people to send the body back to each family for proper burial. Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, they have sent new year goods and money. This is unheard of in any dynasty or place, not to mention Xu Zizhen. figure?That is the great hero who guards Lanzhou, and is also the magistrate's son-in-law. As him, he actually came to condolences to these civilians in person. How can the old man not be excited?

The common people could see clearly in their eyes, and they all applauded Xu Zizhen's actions. The news spread like wildfire and soon spread throughout the whole city. More and more common people knew about it, and more and more common people went out specially. Find Xu Zizhen's whereabouts and go to New Year's greetings with him.

Lanzhou City is neither big nor small. It is not easy to run through these dozens of houses. It was not until the afternoon when the sun was westward that I ran almost all the houses I was going to. The car followed The people in the village gradually dispersed under Xu Zizhen's repeated persuasion, and now he and Qian Tongzhi are left.

"The last one, let's go." Xu Zizhen held the list in his hand and let out a long breath.

Qian Tongzhi nodded, with a solemn expression, and drove the car to a somewhat dilapidated street.

This street is close to the city gate, and almost all the poor people live there are coolies and handymen. The road is full of dirty water and garbage, and the shops on both sides are also very dilapidated. The carriage came to an alley and stopped. Xu Zizhen I jumped out of the car and walked inside with my things, not far away was a row of low earthen houses, with cotton curtains hanging in front of the door, some were hanging down, and some were rolled up and hung on the eaves of the door.

This is called a half-closed door, which is the lowest and most traditional kiln. You can do business with a mud kang and a mattress in the house. The door curtain is rolled up halfway, which means it is idle. Everyone knows that the door curtain is put down when there are guests. rule.

There is a young man in the Shenji camp. He is handsome and pleasing, has a good temper, and gets along with everyone. Xu Zizhen once talked with him and knew that his family was very poor. He had no parents since he was a child. His sister brought him up alone. The big one, it's just that his sister's work is not very pleasant, that's the kind of half-closed door.

You must know that women these days regard fame as more important than their lives, but this older sister can resolutely sell her own body in order to support her younger brother, which makes Xu Zizhen immediately respectful, he never discriminates against prostitutes, And I respect and admire such a sister from the bottom of my heart.

When Xu Zizhen saw this great sister, there was a sharp pain in his heart. The curtain on the door was drawn, but there was no business in the house. This poor woman had no blood on her face, and her eyes were scattered and dazed. Looking at him from time to time, he murmured: "You are...General Xu? Is my little brother obedient?"

Losing her close relative made this poor woman go crazy, Xu Zizhen felt uncomfortable, nodded and said: "Be obedient, your younger brother is the most obedient in the whole camp."

A gleam of joy finally appeared on the woman's face, and her eyes seemed to have recovered a little. Xu Zizhen gently put the New Year's goods and silver in her hands, and without saying anything, turned around and left here. go Ape.

Back in the carriage, he snatched the whip from Qian Tongzhi's hand, and lashed the horse's buttocks vigorously, and the horse galloped in pain.

Qian Tongzhi was horrified: "You...what are you going to do?"

Xu Zizhen's face was ashen, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Go back and take out that little bastard from the Xiao family, I won't negotiate anymore, I'll cut him alive first to vent my anger!"
