Idle courtiers

Chapter 110 Master Zhan (recommendation ticket requested)

It was quite cold last night, and the two patients were lying beside them.Poor Zhou Nan had to change Fatty Zhan's wet cotton towel on his forehead to cool down, and then went to see if Xia Yi had coughed to death, so naturally he didn't sleep well.

He didn't wake up until noon, and as for going out to see if he could make some money, he could only talk about it after lunch.

It was still raining today, and after a while, Guan Jia, the clerk from the shop, came over with a big steaming wooden basin, which contained a bowl of white rice, covered with a layer of painted cowhide, and cold kohlrabi.The most wonderful thing is that there are more than a dozen slices of old bacon that is one finger thick, and it is really fragrant.

Zhan Tong grabbed the bowl on top of the rice and dug up a large amount of rice, frantically pulling it into his mouth: "It's fragrant, delicious, delicious."

Seeing that the food was so good, Zhou Nan was also happy in his heart. He helped Xia Yi up, fed him a mouthful of food, and asked: "Old Xia, is it better/"

After taking a mouthful of oil and water splashing translucent fat, Xia Yi immediately regained her spirits: "It's much better, it feels fresher than yesterday. :"

He has a lung disease, which was also called tuberculosis in ancient times.Commonly known as hungry tuberculosis.

Unlike ordinary colds and fevers with no appetite, this disease requires a lot of nourishment and nourishment.

Of course, Zhan Tong is an exception, he can still eat it when he has a cold.In a blink of an eye, two bowls of rice were eaten.More than half of the dozen or so slices of bacon went into his mouth.

Still waiting to grab, Zhou Nan slapped the chopsticks on the back of his hand: "Lao Zhan, don't overdo it, Lao Xia is also sick. Lao Xia, take another slice."

Xia Yi bit it down, the oil and water marked out, sticking to her beard crystal clear.

He nodded towards Guan Jia: "Little brother, thank you very much."

Guan Jia: "Is it delicious?"

Zhan Tong: "Isn't this nonsense, it's naturally delicious."

Guan Jia: "Eat more if it tastes good, and you can go on the road after eating." After speaking, he left with a smile.

Zhou Nan frowned: "Why does this man speak, it doesn't sound right."

Zhan Tong said with a smile: "Perhaps the shopkeeper saw that we really had no money and were pitiful, and his conscience found out that we don't want money anymore, so he wants to drive us out."

After thinking about it, no business, no adultery, Guan Jia's bad behavior, do he and their boss have a conscience?
Zhou Nan suddenly changed his face: "No, I'm afraid something will happen. Fatty, don't eat, let's help Lao Xia, let's go directly to the Yamen. Lao Xia, something is wrong, I can't take care of so much."

Just after he finished speaking, there was a sound of rumbling footsteps.Then I saw five soldiers rushing into the inn, and the leader shouted loudly: "We are Sergeant Xingyuan, the governor of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone stays in the room and is not allowed to come out. If there is any resistance, press the button. Punishment!"

After finishing speaking, he walked to the stable, looked at Zhou Nan and the three of them, and asked loudly, "Second Uncle, Guan Jia, but these three?"

The shopkeeper of the inn and Guan Jia came out, looked at them with a smile, and said, "It's these three. You three owe the food in the small shop. You look like refugees who have fled from a disaster. It's not easy to sit here in sorrow. It's not a solution, how can the living be starved to death? Do you think this is good? Now Tang Gong is thirsty for talents, and it is time for Xingyuan to employ people. The little old man thinks that the three of you are very human, and you know what you say The people of insight in Shu Dali recommend you to serve in the army later.”

"With your abilities, you may not be able to secure your wife and children on the battlefield in the future, and fight for wealth and honor. At that time, you must thank the little old man!"

"What?" Zhou Nan and the three cried out at the same time, knowing in their hearts that they were sold by the shopkeeper as piglets.

"Bold, do you know who this is?" At this time, Zhou Nan didn't care too much, pointing at Xia Yi and said: "He is Xia Yi, a thousand households of Xia Yi, the Fusi of Beizhen, Jinyi's army, and he is a fifth-rank military officer. Rude, quickly take us to see your officer."

Hearing that the consumptive ghost in front of him was Jin Yiwei, everyone was shocked.

The officer at the head was so frightened that his heart jumped, he asked Xia Yi: "This Shangguan, is it true?"

Xia Yi shook her head: "No, we are refugees who escaped."

Zhou Nan was shocked: "Lao Xia, Xia Qianhu, you can't do this? Your secret job is important, but once you join the army, the lives of the three of us will be lost."

Then he said to the officer: "We have evidence, look, look, the flying fish suit." Then he grabbed Xia Yi's bag and pulled out the flying fish suit.

After this tugging, there was only one pair of sleeves, which he held in his hand awkwardly: "Tear it up, tear it up."

Several soldiers laughed loudly: "It's Jin Yiwei, it's so ridiculous."

"Are you here to bury the military master?" The officer glared at Zhou Nan: "Name?"

Zhou Nan: "Zhou Nan."

"Okay, write it down." The officer took the pen that Guan Jia had prepared earlier, and wrote something on the roster.

Zhan Tong couldn't bear it anymore, it was just afternoon, not yet when he had a fever.He scolded: "Dirty and contemptible thief, do you know who I am? The magistrate of Andong County in Huai'an Prefecture, I can't beat you to death."

"Oh, for a while, it's Jinyi Qianhu, and for a while, it's the magistrate of the seventh rank. Think I'm stupid? If so, show me the waist card, diploma, official guide, and road slip."

Zhan Tong: "No, my lord has not, you will know if you take me to Xingyuan to meet the Shangguan."

The officer laughed violently: "Do you think I'm stupid? I don't have these things. Why should I believe it?" After laughing, his face turned cold: "If you talk nonsense, I can't kill you. What's your name?"

"My lord's surname is Zhan, what's the matter, I'm from Prince Yu's Mansion..."

"Shut up, don't talk crazy to grandpa." The officer wrote a pen on the roster and read: "I hereby send a Ding Zhuang from the Liu family in Zhuangyuan Street, Jiangyin County, to enrich the army. His surname is Zhan, and his name is an adult. .”

Zhou Nan was dumbfounded, Master Zhan, what a good name!He and Minister Wang, a famous historical figure in the Ming Dynasty, were bright for a while, and the second general was humming.

After the officer finished writing, he threw away the pen, and said to his opponent, "Tie up these three refugees and bring them back to the army."

Zhou Nan stopped Zhan Tong who was about to run away: "My lord, a hero doesn't suffer from immediate losses, and besides, if he goes to the military camp, he can have a full meal."

Then he said to the officer: "We will go on our own, I hope you can be responsible for your words and deeds today."

The officer sneered: "I really think you are some big shots, who are you coaxing, let's go."

He smiled at Boss Wei again: "Second Uncle, brothers have worked hard, look at these shoes and socks..."

Boss Wei handed over a piece of silver with a smile, and scolded: "How can I miss you, I watched you grow up, and I hugged you when I was young, talking about money is too hurtful."

The officer laughed and said, "Second Uncle, you really think that I am an ignorant child. You took these three people to serve at least 60 taels of silver before you gave me this little money. Seeing that you belong to an elder For the sake of this, let’s stop talking nonsense, and I will do you a favor.”

After finishing speaking, he sighed with emotion: "Talking about feelings hurts money, the ancients never deceived me."

Zhou Nan originally thought that Tang Shunzhi, who was taken to the city this time, was sent to the army, and it would not be too late to reveal his identity when he saw a knowledgeable official.The officer in front of him is ignorant, and he can't explain clearly to him.

But after walking all the way with him, he left the city.

Poor Zhan Tong started to have a fever again, while Xia Yi was coughing out of breath.It took two hours to arrive after twenty li.

It was actually a small town named: Yangshe Town.

The place is huge, and the scale is only smaller than Jiangyin County. There are thousands of people stationed here, belonging to more than a dozen different units.There are warehouses and newly-built soil enclosures everywhere, which is obviously the logistics supply base of Tang Shun's army, a small military city.

Seeing the situation, Zhou Nan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: As long as he didn't go to the frontline troops, swords and arrows have no eyes on the battlefield, and maybe he was unlucky and killed by Japanese pirates.And with the bodies of the two old brothers Zhan and Xia, it is natural that they will go to the battlefield and never return.

In fact, Zhou Nan thought too much.Tang Shunzhi's army was very strict, and strong men who had not undergone strict training and were proficient in how to maneuver a ship really couldn't enter the front-line army.

You must know that the rations of the main combat troops are very good. Before the battle, there is money to boost morale, and there are rewards after the battle.The army is a place that pays attention to one's origin, and you, an outsider, can't squeeze into the main force.

That is to do some dirty work such as transporting materials.
