Early the next morning, Ding Yuluo drove around, and according to Ding Hao's arrangement, he went to meet the officials of the Guangyuan military and political roads who had been friends with the Ding family over the years, and Ding Hao also took Xue Liang to Guangyuan Street.
In Guangyuan City, Ding Hao specifically inquired about the skilled craftsmen in the city, and when he heard about it, he came to visit.
Winter is the idle season, these craftsmen do not have too many things at hand, even if there are some things at hand, Ding Hao Xu with heavy profits, these craftsmen are also happy to obey, one by one to collect the deposit, then pick up the tools, and rush to the camp where the Xicheng Ding family food team is now stationed to report.
Zang Zhu'er followed Ding Hao, seeing that he was busy looking for some carpenters, blacksmiths, leathermen, painters, and pasters, he really couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart, and couldn't help but ask Ding Hao, Ding Hao smiled: "It's not clear for a while now, when they make things, you will naturally know at a glance."
When I turn around, these craftsmen have gone to the camp, and I will set up a separate place for them to use, and then you will watch, and these craftsmen are not allowed to leave or enter alone until the old mother of General Guangyuan is old. ” Zhen Zhu'er asked quietly: "It's easy for no one to come out, they have accepted our eldest lady's silver."
But no one is allowed to go in, and you and the eldest lady are not allowed to go in, are they not allowed to go in with Steward Liu and Yang Tou'er?"
Ding Hao scolded with a smile: "Don't pretend to be stupid with me, the eldest lady and I will naturally get in, except for the two of us, no one else is allowed to go in, no one is allowed."
If they have any dissatisfaction, you just push it on the eldest lady.
When the time comes, I will find a few more reliable people to listen to you. ” Zhen Zhu'er said excitedly: "Haha, since everything is carried by the eldest lady, then it is okay, although you leave this matter to me, but what are you looking for these craftsmen to do, do you have to make a plow again" Ding Hao glared at him angrily, and was about to speak, when someone suddenly shouted in front of him: "Dodge away, don't block my master's way." ” Ding Hao looked up and saw that the person who shouted was Yang Jincheng, the head catcher of Guangyuan Mansion, he was still carrying a few officials in front of him, there was a sedan chair behind him, the sedan curtain was rolled, and there were two people sitting in the carriage, with splendid robes and skins, wrapping his body tightly, wearing a ferret hat on his head, and he was pointing and laughing, one of them was Xu Fengqing, the prefect of Guangyuan.
I want to come to Mr.
Xu to travel today, not to patrol the city, so he didn't use the flag guard of honor, and the car drove slowly, but his subordinates still inevitably wanted to fake the tiger.
Yang Jincheng was shouting five and six, and when he looked up and saw Ding Hao, there was a kind smile on his face, if it wasn't for Ding Hao catching the trafficker, their brothers who ate public meals might still be eating boards today, and now if there is nothing to do, the fortunate Master Xu also gave one of them a reward of fifty Wen for their hard work, which is all thanks to Ding Hao, Yang Zhutou naturally showed a little affection when he saw him.
He smiled and nodded to Ding Hao for a slight gesture, then turned his head and scolded a vendor selling dates: "Don't you have long eyes, you still have to break blindly, be careful to dismantle your car." ” The jujube dealer pushing the cart hurriedly flashed to the side, and Yang Zhutou walked up to Ding Hao and beckoned: "Brother Hao, you're busy." ” Ding Hao stepped forward with a smile and said politely: "Yes, there are some things to do."
Yang Zhutou, who is the prefect walking with?"
Yang Jincheng glanced back, pursed his lips, and whispered: "I heard that he is a famous person in the Central Plains, and he had a friendship with our master when he was studying.
This person's shelf is very big, both eyes have grown to the sky, this time traveling to the north, our lord heard that he specially sent someone to invite him to Guangyuan. ” Ding Hao said "oh", his mind is now full of sketches drawn by himself, originally he asked casually, and when he heard that it was a bullshit celebrity who had nothing to do with the livelihood and livelihood of small people like him, he didn't pay attention to it, so he smiled and said: "I see, Yang Zhutou, you are busy, and Xiaomin won't bother you." ” Yang Zhutou smiled, and also arched his hand to him, and was about to move forward, Xu Zhifu had seen Ding Hao in the car, and hurriedly kicked the baffle, the car and horse stopped, Xu Zhifu bowed his head slightly, and smiled at him: "Ding Hao." ” Ding Hao hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Lord Prefect." ” Governor Xu stroked his beard and smiled: "Hehe, you don't have to be formal, where are you going?"
Ding Hao replied truthfully: "I heard that the birthday of the old lady of Chengfu is approaching, and Xiaomin bought some gifts at the order of the head of the family to talk about the heart of the head of the family. ” "Oh" Governor Xu's eyes flashed, and the smile on his face became a little stronger: "Then you go and get busy, this mansion and you hit it off at first sight, but it's a pity that you are in a hurry twice and three times, and there is always no chance to talk."
Hehe, Mrs.
Cheng's birthday, this mansion is also going to go, you and I will see you and me then. ” "Yes, Xiaomin also hopes to have the opportunity to listen to the advice of Lord Fuzun, Lord Fuzun walks slowly, and Xiaomin sends off adults."
Ding Hao calmly stepped aside, gave a long farewell, and gave a few thoughtful gifts, Xu Zhifu kicked the baffle, glanced at Ding Hao, and smiled.
The car started, and the long-haired old man of Qingqu, who was sitting next to Xu Fengqing, sneered, and called the words of Xu Zhifu: "Brother Xu Shui, you are the dignity of the dignified mansion, how can you stop and greet the small people who meet you on the road, and you are not afraid of folding your identity." ” Xu Fengqing smiled and said: "Brother Renjia, the junior brother is bound by official duties, and he can't compare to your celebrity style, and he is relaxed."
This Guangyuan prefect is not the same as the officials of the Central Plains, and the younger brother is an official here, which is like facing the abyss, walking on thin ice, three times a day, I dare not make a slight mistake.
This Ding Hao, although he is a grass citizen, may one day be a useful figure by General Cheng's side, and the younger brother will hand it over, so why not" Lu Renjia, a famous scholar in the Central Plains, said disdainfully: "Xu Shui, the edge of your youth has been completely wiped out by this officialdom."
A Cheng Shixiong made you so worried, seeing it for your brother, just sad for you. ” Xu Fengqing's expression was a little embarrassed, Lu Renjia turned a blind eye, smiled coldly, and said proudly: "What is that Cheng Shixiong is just a domestic slave in the former Jin Dynasty Du Chongwei Mansion, you read the book of sages, ten years of hard work, and the two lists of Jinshi who have worked hard, but you have to look up to him and hum Xu Shui with the snort of his husband, you look at it, when the imperial court solves the troubles of the Southern Han Dynasty and the south of the Yangtze River, these feudal towns will be eradicated one by one, and the country will be unified." ” Xu Fengqing's face suddenly changed color when he heard this, this Lu Renjia is so old, how can he still talk exaggeratedly and don't know the importance of such a character, so he has no choice but to write and ink in the wind and ink, the lips and teeth are vertical and horizontal, and the eyes are high and the hands are low, it is difficult to become a big weapon.
I invited him this time to use his fame to congratulate Cheng Fu on his birthday, but now it seems that I don't know whether it is right or wrong, don't let him cause any trouble.
Xu Fengqing was secretly annoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Brother Renjia, where did you talk about literature and martial arts, everyone is serving the court and seeking the well-being of the people."
The younger brother is the prefect of Guangyuan, and he is on the side of the herdsman, and he is in harmony with General Cheng's civil and military affairs, and he supports each other, so that the brother will never mention it again. ” Lu Renjia's boss was displeased, and glared: "You" Xu Fengqing hurriedly put down the sedan curtain and said with a dry smile: "Okay, okay, it's going to be there soon, the younger brother has instructed the mansion to prepare a banquet, and after a while, I will have a long talk with Brother Renjia." ” Seeing Governor Xu's car drive away, next to a stall selling leather goods on the side of the road, a person said in a low voice: "What a rare opportunity, why don't we do it?"
There were three people squatting in front of the leather stall, all wearing bloated sheepskin jackets and dogskin hats with ears, even men and women couldn't see it, and I saw a slightly thin person squatting in the middle while pretending to rummage through those cheap leather goods, and whispered: "What's the use of killing him, Xu Fengqing is in Guangyuan, that is the ears of a deaf man, and only by killing Cheng Shixiong can we achieve our goal." ” The voice was a woman's voice, and she wasn't very old.
She raised her head and glanced at Ding Hao's distant back, her face was covered with the face towel that northerners often wear to shield from the cold wind, only a pair of eyes were exposed, thick black eyebrows, and charming eyes, which was quite amazing.
With just a glance, she lowered her head again and commanded softly: "We have just arrived in Guangyuan, and it is very difficult to find out Cheng Shixiong's whereabouts as soon as possible.
Time is pressing, and we are not allowed to design calmly, the person surnamed Ding just now said that Cheng Shixiong's mother's birthday is imminent, maybe it is an opportunity, you go and inquire about it immediately, maybe we can start from this aspect. ” Another person approvingly said: "Yes, no matter how alert and careful he is, in his own home, when his mother's birthday is full of greetings, he must have relaxed his guard, and it is a good opportunity for us to start."
The question is, the one who can get the invitation of the Cheng family must be the officials and gentry of the Guangyuan Mansion, how can we get into the Cheng Mansion?"
The sound of gongs and cymbals interrupted the discussion of the three people, and the three of them looked up and saw three carts with colorful flags, dozens of people clustered around the carts, and a few people in front of them walked, and from time to time they had to turn over a few neat hollow somersaults on the snow, which attracted a lot of applause from passers-by.
Behind a few people who somersaulted like monkeys, a fat man was naked in the cold, with a fat body trembling and trembling, he was holding a three-zhang high chess piece with one hand, and there was a line of big characters on the flag: "Wu Jiale Shed, Chengfu Congratulations on Birthday" Seeing that the servants of the Washer Shed came to the front, the three of them hurriedly lowered their heads again:
