Penglai County was originally a small town under the jurisdiction of Huang County, but due to the bandits and pirates' rebellion, the government had already lost control, and the pirates regarded it as their own territory, but the Bai family survived among the bandits and pirates. Its momentum is great.

After receiving the news from Bai Qingye, Chuning deliberately inquired about the situation of the Bai family in recent years, only to find out that since Bai Su took charge of the family, there has been no negative or negative news about the Bai family, such as Occupying people's fields, such as being rich and unkind, oppressing good people...

The most important thing is that it has not been robbed by bandits and pirates so far, and Qinglongzhai wants to be the leader and pick peaches from the Bai family. You know, this is the product of the Bai family. If the Bai family is really so If it is easy to bully, another larger group of bandits in the county, 'Tianwangzhai', would have been wiped out long ago.

Therefore, Chuning only thought about it for less than three seconds, and agreed to Bai Qingye on the spot, and Bai Qingye sent Bai Su's name card and a letter in return on behalf of the Bai family.

When Chu Rou found out later, she shouted that Chu Ning had been tricked by the Bai family, and Qing'er was also helping, and the lion opened his mouth, saying that the Bai family had to give at least one hundred guan, but Huo Yunshu smiled lightly and remained silent.

On the next day, Chu Rou took Sun Xinghe, Wu Er, and two other strong men from the village, and went down the mountain to Huang County.

Donglai Mountain happened to be between Penglai and Huang County, and Huang County, as the county seat, had a population of over [-]. Chuning traveled along the way, and although he saw many beggars and refugees, it was much better than Penglai, a den of thieves.

After sending a few copper coins to the guards guarding the city gate, a group of five people easily entered the city, which made Chuning worry for a while. She thought she would check the books of all households.

Not long after entering the city, and before he had time to take a closer look at everything in the inner city, he saw a group of people on the street in front of him. When Chuning walked a few steps closer, he heard a familiar voice. The storyteller who had worked with her in Penglai City was talking loudly there: "How could you know that the younger sister of the Ning family was suffering from tooth disease when she was about to get married..."

Chu Ning shook his head and laughed, turned around and walked in another direction. Sun Xing, He Wu and the others didn't know why Chu Ning came here, so they had to follow behind. Not long after, they heard a shout from behind: " Miss Ning, Miss Ning, please stop..."

Looking back, it was the storyteller who hurried up to catch up. The two chattered for a while before Chuning found out that the storyteller's surname was Jia Mingpei, and he was a native of Huang County. Home advertises toothbrushes.

"I don't know what's the important thing for Miss Ning to come here?" After the hustle and bustle, Jia Pei smiled and said respectfully: "The villain has lived here for a long time, if there are some small things, he can probably help the girl. "

Chu Ning knew that Jia Pei had tasted the sweetness, that's why he got close to her, and immediately smiled politely, and explained some things to He Wu, and asked He Wu to take the two strong men and leave first. He took Sun Xing and followed Jia Pei to find a tea stall.

"Since Mr. is a local, I really have something to trouble Mr.." After ordering three bowls of tea, after sitting down, Chuning said directly: "Please tell me about the official customs and customs here."

When Jia Pei heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "So the girl wants to know this, and the villain happens to know something, but I don't know whether it is accurate or not..."

"It doesn't matter whether you are allowed or not," Chuning said, "I am also a newcomer to your land, so I have the right to listen to it for leisure."

"That villain started with the banditry last year." Jia Pei said slowly, "About the beginning of last winter, the pirate Blackbeard brought people ashore, joined hands with Tianwangzhai, and almost robbed the entire Donglai County. "

"Among them, my Huang County suffered the most. Even the county seat was almost breached. The county lieutenant Mr. Zhang who was in charge of resisting at that time was caught by the bandits and was tied to a horse and dragged to death... probably because of this, the former county lord My lord took the blame and resigned from office, and the new county lord Wang Yi just arrived in the early summer of this year."

After Jia Pei finished speaking, he briefly introduced the officials of the county government.For example, Xiao Ze, the county magistrate, is the eldest son of the rich Xiao family in the county; Jiang Bai, the head of the county, was promoted to Xiaolian a few years ago, but because of his poor family, he only got the position of head of Bo, and now he is a big family in the county. Duan's son-in-law.Since the new county lieutenant has not yet arrived, all affairs are in charge of the soldier Cao Zhangming, and this Zhang Ming is also the son-in-law of the Xiao family...

While the two were talking, Dr. Tea came over with three bowls of tea on a wooden tray. Chuning was feeling thirsty, so he picked up the tea bowl, but before he had time to drink it, he was dumbfounded - he saw the yellow and yellow tea in the bowl. The crushed tea leaves, green onion, ginger, orange stems and other things are boiled into a thick bowl, which makes people don't know how to eat.

Jia Pei was calm and composed, picked it up and ate it. Sun Xing followed suit and ate happily. Only Chu Ning, after pushing the bowl away, did not move again.

The two talked for a while, and He Wu led someone to find him. After Chu Ning and Jia Pei said goodbye, he asked He Wu, "Have you heard about it?"

"I found out." He Wu immediately said: "Then Wang Xianzun is having tea and listening to music in the Dongchun Building, Erzhai... the second girl wants to go now?"

"Of course I will go now."

He Wu led the way, and the group of five went straight to Dongchun Tower in the west of the city.

Dongchun Tower is only a small two-story building. As soon as you enter the door, you can see someone on the stage in the middle who is singing something, and Chuning glanced at it, and then stopped his gaze in the middle of the stage. At the table, a middle-aged man was sitting, smiling and talking to the male servant next to him.

After looking around, He Wu had already negotiated with the waiter, and under Chuning's signal, he asked for the table next to the middle-aged man, and sat down to listen to the play quietly.

He Wu's mind was obviously not on listening to the play, and from time to time, he secretly glanced at the movement on the table next to him, and when the servant seemed to have received some orders and was about to leave, He Wu immediately got up and followed.

Not long after, when He Wu came back, he whispered a few words into Chuning's ear. Chuning raised his eyebrows and smiled, and came to a place about three steps behind the middle-aged man. He pointed to the stage, then pointed to the chair opposite, but didn't speak.

Chu Ning bowed, then sat down quietly, and enjoyed the performance on the stage with the middle-aged man. After a long time, until the performance on the stage was almost over, she realized that the play seemed to be about The incident of Han Gaozu's struggle for hegemony with the Chu overlord.

"Is the girl also a person who loves to play?" The man was full of emotions, and kept looking at the stage until everyone on the stage retreated. Then he turned around and asked Chuning with a smile: "If Girls are also lovers of plays, so you might as well wait a little longer, the next play will be 'White Clothes Yunhou' fighting the red-browed army wisely, it is most loved by young ladies of your age."

The current Chu Ning is not as ignorant of the world as he was just now. Huo Yunshu specifically mentioned this white-clothed Yunhou when he gave her a science popularization about the old affairs of Qing Dynasty.

It is said that the Qing Dynasty began in the last years of Xinmang. At that time, the country was divided and the world was in chaos. As a commoner, the emperor and ancestor Li Huan took advantage of the momentum to raise troops in his hometown, broke with the Gengshi regime, and conquered the north and south After more than 25 years of war, the current Daqing Dynasty was established.

And this white-clothed Yunhou is from the period of Tai and Zu. His surname is Yun and his name is Baiyi. After entering Chang'an, he was dissatisfied with the surrender of the Red Eyebrow Army to the Gengshi regime, so he brought his relatives to report to the Tai and Zu Li Huan, and followed the Tai and Zu Li Huan to fight in the north and south, and made great military exploits. Hou is very respected.

Hearing what this person said at this moment, Chu Ningquan pretended not to know his identity, and said with a smile, "I hope seniors don't make jokes, but this junior yearns for Marquis Yun's sassy and heroic posture while holding a sword and galloping a horse."

"Hahaha...my little girl is just as old as you, too." After the man smiled, the subject suddenly changed: "I heard that the girl is a distant cousin of the Bai family? Because something happened in the family, I came here to join you." ?”

"That's true." This identity was written by Bai Su in the letter, and it was also a reward from the Bai family. Therefore, when Chu Rou and Qing'er objected at the same time, Huo Yunshu just laughed and said nothing.

"The girl came to see me today, why?"

As soon as the word "my official" came out, Chuning knew that the other party was willing to communicate with more of himself, so he got up and knelt down and said, "Not long after the grass people came here, they heard people mentioning the bandits many times, and heard People talk about the virtues of their old parents, so they have an idea..."

"Oh? It turns out that the girl is here to share my worries, so hurry up and get up." Wang Yiyao held him back and said, "I have also heard that the black beard will make a comeback. I don't know what the girl can do? But Solve this worry for me?"

Chuning stood up, looked at the performers around, Wang Yi got up knowingly, and asked for a private room on the second floor with the waiter in the theater building, and each brought a servant with Chu Ning, and discussed for a long time inside , just split up.

When it was dark, Chu Ning was eating dinner in the inn. Sun Xing ordered someone to come over. When Chuning saw it, he stood up and greeted him with a smile: "So it's Manager Wang, I don't know if I can have dinner? He Wu, go and ask the innkeeper Bring some good food and wine..."

Knowing that the two of them had something to talk about, He Wu immediately ordered the food and drinks to go, leaving Sun Xing to be responsible for Chuning's safety.

The steward Wang's name is Wang Changfu, he is a servant beside Wang Yi, and he has won Wang Yi's trust, but when he came to see Chuning at this moment, his attitude was quite respectful, and he took a wooden tray from another servant behind him, holding it with both hands He handed it over and said: "My master's promise has been completed, and I hope that Chu Dutou can complete the matter as soon as possible, otherwise, my master will not be able to explain it."

"Please also tell the old parents, please just feel at ease, within ten days, the subordinate officials will definitely come back!" Chuning took the wooden plate with both hands, and passed a piece of broken silver weighing about one or two pounds from under the plate, casually After looking at the official uniform and waist badge on it, he handed it over to Sun Xing, and called Steward Wang to sit down and eat together.

Wang Changfu clasped his hands in his sleeves, and was very satisfied in his heart. He was the one who served Wang Yi before and listened to the private conversations between the two of them. Now he received a big gift again. , can also be a human being, of course, if she really does what she says, it will be even better.

Thinking so in his heart, Wang Changfu cupped his hands and said goodbye: "My master is still waiting for the villain to go back and serve, so I won't bother you any more. Chu Dutou, please stay."

Chu Ning insisted on sending him out of the room, and when he came back, he saw Sun Xing looking at the official uniform, and when he saw Chu Ning came back, he couldn't help but smirked and said, "Second boss, I didn't expect you to become an official after going down the mountain. "

In this modern era, although men are superior to women, they are not as changeable and demeaning as the braided dynasties of the later generations, especially after Yun Baiyi set a precedent for women to become marquises, and there have been many famous women one after another. That's why Wang Yi agreed so readily.

But in Chu Ning's view, part of the reason why Wang Yi agreed was because of the activities of the Bai family behind the scenes, and the other part was that he really needed help.

To be more precise, Wang Yi needed thugs, and the Bai family also needed thugs, and Chuning and Zizhuzhai were the thugs they both selected together, so things went so smoothly.

But Sun Xing didn't understand these things, so he just went away happily. When He Wu came in, he heard Sun Xing's words. Then a question came to mind: "Second leader, I heard people say that the head of the capital is in charge of the soldiers, so from now on, won't you just stay here and be in charge of the soldiers?"

"This is an empty title. Where can I take care of the soldiers?" Chuning said with a smile, "I'll go back tomorrow and continue to take care of you big soldiers."

"Huh? Have we all become officers and soldiers?"

"Of course not, but it's coming soon..."
