Chapter 421: Official Wang is speechless due to lack of people (first update)
Chapter 420

When they arrived at the gate of Li's Mansion, Li Qingzhao said that they would take a walk. Naturally, Wang Yang let Li Qingzhao have his way, and the two walked side by side on the dark road. Although it was already summer, there was always a cool breeze at night. It's refreshing.

The chirping sound of cicadas coming from nowhere seems to remind people of its hard work.Wu Qilang followed not far behind with a look of admiration on his face. Next to him were two servants of the Li Mansion, their expressions also looked gossipy and admiration.

Because there was no curfew in Kaifeng in the Song Dynasty, people would come and go throughout the night, and even in the middle of the night, you can find wonton stalls or glutinous glutinous rice stalls for those who like nightlife.

There are even some wine shops that simply set up their stalls on the street at night. With a few plates of side dishes, a few pots of drinks, and a few friends, they can blow the music from dusk to dawn, and it can even make you doubt your life.

"What's the matter, Brother Wang, you look around, it seems that everything here seems very novel."

Wang Yang nodded. "I didn't expect the night in Bianliang to be so lively..." When he first crossed, he stayed in Yihong Building, so it was rare for him to go out.

And when he was free to go in and out, it was already autumn, and the weather was freezing, so naturally there would not be too many people traveling. This was the first time Wang Yang saw Xia Ye's Bianliang customs.

The two walked forward slowly while chatting. They didn't know how far they had walked, until they reached a stone bridge, and Li Qingzhao stopped.

She turned around and looked at Wang Yang steadily for a long time, then she seemed a little nervous and asked with a little anticipation. "Brother Wang, are you, what you told me and my brother, all true?"

Wang Yang looked at Li Qingzhao in confusion. Li Qingzhao couldn't help but smile when he saw Wang Yang's confused and cute look. "That's the content of the quarrel between my elder brother and you just now. Although I didn't eavesdrop, but..."

Seeing Li Qingzhao's pretty face in front of him getting more and more red, Wang Yang sniffed, and subconsciously turned his head to look, well, Wu Qilang and others were ten steps behind, Wang Yang coughed dryly. "What about that, Miss Qingzhao, you should know that I..."

"Brother Wang, little sister just wants to know, do you really like me?" Li Qingzhao raised his head, looked bravely at Wang Yang who was close at hand, and asked softly.

Looking at this pure and lovely face, Wang Yang grinned, showing a bright smile, and nodded vigorously. "Of course I do."

"Then I understand, Brother Wang, I like you too..." After saying this, Li Qingzhao walked back in a panic, and walked about ten steps. Not being very polite, he turned his head again and smiled at Wang Yang. "Brother Wang, goodbye, remember what you said."

Seeing Li Qingzhao's figure disappearing into the crowd, Wang Yang was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He really didn't expect that Li Qingzhao would still behave like this after knowing the exchange between himself and his brother.

"My lord, the young lady of the Li family is actually really nice..." Wu Qilang appeared next to Wang Yang with a ghostly face, and muttered in a low voice.

"Nonsense, I'm not blind." Wang Yang glared at this guy's dishonest look, shook his head helplessly, and continued to move forward.

"Young master, why didn't you just hit the snake with the stick just now, you are a big man, if you are a small one, hehehe..."

"Hey, hey, hey, hey... It seems that being handsome can easily attract the favor of women. Now that this layer of window paper has been punctured, what should we do now..." After Wang Yangtian shamelessly boasted a few words, he couldn't help but I started to have a headache how to solve this problem in the future.

Wu Qilang touched his fleshy face, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful, why didn't he have such troubles as the son?

Besides, can this be called trouble?Regarding this, Wu Qilang couldn't help secretly slandering Wang Yang in his heart.

Annoyance, such annoyance made Wang Yang both complacent and uneasy, but what made Wang Yang relieved was that since Li Qingzhao had learned about the conversation between himself and his brother from her servants, he must have You should know your own mind.

Now that we have reached this point, but Li Qingzhao still told himself her intentions so frankly, if Wang Yang doesn't understand, then he is not stupid, so he should pretend to be stupid.

In the early morning, Wang Yang sat in the car and wandered towards the palace. Today is the penultimate day when the renovation of the toilets in the palace is completed. In another three to five days, all the toilets in the palace will be renovated. The toilets have been remodeled.

But now, this is only in the middle of summer, and it is still far from the deadline given by the empress dowager.However, apart from being happy, there is also a bigger worry, which really makes Wang Yang very helpless, that is, after the renovation of the last toilet is completed, the reconstruction project of the entire toilet in Bianliang will start.

As for the Ministry of Industry, if you can provide money, there is no need to discuss hiring people. Isn’t this nonsense?The entire general and supervisor can only provide him with 30 people. How can it be possible with just these 30 people?
Just as Wang Yang was sighing in the car, the car suddenly stopped.Then he heard a lot of noise, Wang Yang lifted the curtain of the car, and saw hundreds of people of different ages, all in ragged clothes, but some of them were wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty, no matter old or weak, A procession, all armed with a spear, passes the street ahead.

"Well, since when did our imperial army of the Song Dynasty have such a team?" Wang Daguan looked at this army with a confused expression. There were only old and young, the old had gray hair, and the young was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

"Young Master, this is not the Forbidden Army, this is the Xiang Army. If there are any healthy people among them, they can be filled into the Forbidden Army, and the old and weak will be eliminated from the Forbidden Army, and more will be filled into the Xiang Army." Wu Qilang can still chatter Wang Yang couldn't help but look at the two classical Chinese sentences crookedly.

Seeing Wang Yang's suspicious look, Wu Qilang gave a dry laugh twice in embarrassment. "The little one originally grew up in the Xiangbing, but when he became an adult, he had to be tattooed. The little one didn't want to, so he quit this job and started hanging out..."

Only then did Wang Yang realize that there was a very cheating practice in the Song Dynasty, that is, all those who enlisted in the army must have their faces tattooed to prevent them from fleeing.

And he also has some impressions. During the Northern Song Dynasty, there were four kinds of military establishments. The highest and most powerful army was naturally the Imperial Army of the Great Song Dynasty, or it should be said that this was the standard army. The next level was the Fan soldiers, that is, the ethnic minorities The army, again, is the rural soldiers, that is, the young and strong who usually work in agriculture and gather together for military training during the slack.

Although the township soldiers in most areas are useless, the township soldiers in the border towns have been fighting against foreign enemies all the year round, and the folk customs in the northern border have always been tough, so the township soldiers in the frontier fortresses The level of combat effectiveness is no less than that of elite frontier troops.

And juxtaposed with the vast number of rural soldiers who have little combat effectiveness are the Xiang soldiers. The so-called Xiang soldiers are even composed of a large number of refugees from various places. However, when disasters occur and the people are in dire straits, in order to prevent the people from choosing, the country simply So he compiled a military registration, known as Xiangbing.
