Inside the High Wall [Quick Transmigration]

Some things are known to be impossible to do, and some things are known to be futile.

People at the ferry crossed the river to fight for the red sun. At night, Zheng Zhao called the boatman to go north. The wind was cold and egrets were singing. He sat on the bow and crushed snacks to feed the fish. He watched a few silver scales floating in the water, and the stars also fell into the river before he knew it. .

"Young master, the water ahead is shallow, and the boat can't move. We have to wait for the gate to be released tomorrow." The boatman's wife brought a portion of fruits and vegetables.

Zheng Zhao looked up at her and asked, "Are all the boats waiting here today?"

The boatman's wife said: "Returning to the young master, the gates were opened once at noon, and all the previous boats have left. The next time the gates will be opened will be three days later."

If Zheng Qiang left in the morning and everything went smoothly, he should have passed this barrier at noon.Zheng Zhao took out the seal of "Cangyan Luozhaojian" and handed it to Danghu, and said: "Take the seal and go to the people of the river or water transport, and ask them to open the gate if there is something urgent."

When the lake answered yes, he took the seal and waited for the boat to berth to the shore before leaving.

It took a long time for the river gate to open, so Zheng Zhao stood up and looked at the densely packed ships on the canal.These ships should all be merchant ships, otherwise they wouldn't stop here waiting to open the gates.Merchant ships stopped for one day, and it cost an extra day of money, but official ships and tribute ships went north to Beijing without any hindrance, and the so-called customs only closed the ships of civilian merchants.As long as you are an official once, even if you return to your hometown after serving as an official, you can call the post station.What's more interesting is that there are countless things about lending fire cards to relatives and friends.

"Young Master! The people in the Water Transport Yamen have said that they will immediately adjust their strength and open the gate to release the water in a while." When Dang Hu came back panting, he handed the seal to Zheng Zhao, and took out the wooden sign from his arms, "Zhang The adults said that he has a nephew who is also a Jinshi of Jinke with the young master, and he is also considered the young master's year uncle, this inspection and cooperation card is issued to the young master, and it will be fine to show it to the juncture in the future, so there is no need to bother, it will waste time and delay things."

Zheng Zhao glanced at the wooden sign, but didn't answer it, only said: "You keep it."

Studying hard in the cold window, with their heads hanging on the beams and their buttocks piercing their buttocks, most people want to enjoy this privilege.He also belongs to the vast majority of people, but compared to the enjoyment that most people take for granted, he is much more hypocritical, and he doesn't even feel the slightest joy.

Seeing a bright light on the gate, the ships on the water surface of the canal were all in commotion.People who often drift on the canal are used to this situation. Any official or yamen called to open the river gate, and the gate was about to be opened to release the water.They quickly adjusted the sails and rudder, without any resentment, but congratulating themselves for their good luck.Standing at the bow of the boat, Zheng Zhao watched the canal in full swing at night, and suddenly saw a woman standing not far away, wearing a red cloak, with a familiar figure.

"Come closer," he ordered.

Zheng Qiang came out to breathe in the bow of the boat, and seeing Zheng Zhao standing on another boat coming this way, she smiled and said loudly: "Third brother, do we meet by chance?"

Zheng Zhao said: "No, I'm here to see you."

Zheng Qiang shook her head and complained: "Third brother is so boring, I mean we meet on the water, even if we meet by chance."

Zheng Zhaodao: "Meeting by chance is that duckweed has no roots and drifts with the water. It is not that there is a river called Ping Shui, which is used to extend to any river."

Zheng Qiang laughed even happier when she heard the words, and asked, "Is that what the third brother came to see me to say?"

Zheng Zhao looked into her eyes and said, "Don't enter the palace."

Zheng Qiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and quibbled: "Who said that going back to Beijing means entering the palace? Third brother, don't think about it, the family has calmed down, just allow me to go home. What about entering the palace, our family already has the third sister who has the only favor Loved it."

Zheng Zhao didn't say a word, and after a while, he said softly, "Fourth sister, Linqing has snow on Pinggang in winter."

Zheng Qiang's expression darkened, and she said in a low voice: "Then I can only ask the third brother to help me take a look. Third brother, I have been waiting for this day for almost half a year, how can I not go? The third sister is still looking forward to my entry into the palace Go take care of her, and don't let her be harmed by the queen. Father, he is still waiting for me to help the family to be a favorite, after all, the third sister is pregnant and can't sleep, I will enter the palace so that the fat will not flow into the field of outsiders."

"Haha, men know men best." She laughed twice, trembling wildly, her eyes were determined.

"I can do what the third sister can do since childhood, and I can even do better than her, but everyone always praises the third sister, and they can't see me behind. Later, when I walked out behind her, people looked at her wherever I went. I got me, and I can only see me. My sister knows that my third brother is worried about me, but I am not reconciled. Living a life without hope, I would rather enter the palace and give it a try, I will admit success or failure."

"It's been so many years, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet again, third brother please take care."

As soon as the sluice was opened, thousands of ships rushed to sail.

When Zheng Zhao came back, he contracted a cold and coughed continuously.Fu Niang was so distressed that she invited all the medical clinics in Linqing City, even the foot doctors who walked around the streets, and now she is obsessed with rural folk remedies.Carrot tea, apricot pear tea, white fungus rock sugar soup, ephedra pear soup, Zheng Zhao ate it once in the past few days.

"According to brother, these eggs are fresh, and they were still warm when I bought them. I tasted them, and they are not fishy when eaten raw. Add vinegar, sour, and drink them in one gulp." Fu Niang held the white porcelain The bowl, persuading with a frown, "The Ma Daopo said, as long as you drink a bowl in the morning on an empty stomach, you won't cough for five days."

In order to keep his ears clean, Zheng Zhao picked up the porcelain bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

very sour.

There is a folk proverb: If you want to be rich, sell wine and vinegar.Brewing vinegar costs food, and the price is high. Most people would never put more vinegar, and Fu Niang put vinegar as if it didn't cost money.

A gentleman likes to eat sour food, while a villain likes to eat salty food.He comforted himself, but he was still unbearably sour.

Forget it, he's not a gentleman.

When Fu Niang walked out, Zheng Zhao vomited into the basin, and then he felt better.

It wasn't until the end of the year that it was snowing all over the sky that Zheng Zhao gradually stopped coughing and read books at home.The temple fair in Linqing City was held for a few days, and Fu Niang went there to prepare New Year's goods.Zheng Lian returned to Beijing with his family a while ago, and before he left, he sent two jars of pickles.With the sound of firecrackers saying goodbye to the old year, he and Fu Niang ate at the same table, and Fu Niang cried while eating, and laughed while crying.

"Brother Zhao, it snowed on the New Year's Eve when you were just born. I was worried when I looked at you, thinking how should I take care of you? I don't know how to be a mother, I have never been a mother, I have never seen Mother, I just wondered what it would be like to be a mother, and I was so worried at that time that I didn't know what to do."

"The neighbors are laughing, noisy, and there are only you and me in the house. I cried and thought, your father hasn't come here for a long time, and if he wants to say that he doesn't care about us, how should I support you? What should you do for a living when you grow up? I was so scared. I was afraid that you would not have enough to eat, that you would not be able to wear warm clothes, and that you would not be able to marry a wife. The boss was no longer alone. Later, I was looking forward to the stars and the moon. Your father finally sent someone to send money. I was very happy for a long time. After I was happy, I was thinking that you can't be with me, it's not good for me, you have to study, you have to go back to Zheng's house."

"Brother Zhao, mother never expected such a day to come."

The ice floes on the river were surging, and before spring came, Zheng Zhao took a boat and went south. When the spring was warm and the flowers bloomed, he happened to arrive in Jining.

Jining is also a prosperous place, but there is one thing that distinguishes Jining from all the places around the canal. Yan Shenggong has lived here for generations.There are thousands of Confucian scholars in the world, which one does not believe in Confucius?There are so many famous families in the world, which one can be honored like Yan Shenggong from generation to generation?

Of course, Yan Shenggong can last for thousands of years, relying on being able to bend and stretch.Whoever calls in will knelt down and shouted long live to whomever, and please "ascend to the throne as soon as possible to comfort the people".

76 generations of domestic slaves, 25 dynasties of second ministers.

Even so, those who know the current affairs are always outstanding, and Yansheng Gong's mansion is still full of bells and lanterns.

Zheng Zhao was frightened on the way into Jining City, his throat was gagging, and his body was hairy. He rode on a donkey and said to Fu Niang in the carriage, "Auntie, don't look outside."

"Okay." Fu Niang nodded and said.

Mi Xia was quite curious after hearing this, and while Cuian Erya didn't pay attention, she secretly opened a corner of the curtain and looked out.Seeing her, her face immediately turned pale, and she vomited out with a wow, the dirty things stained Cuian's skirt.

"What's wrong with Mi Xia? Did you eat something bad?" Cui'an saw that she didn't care about her skirt, and patted her on the back.

Mi Xia said with a trembling voice: "On the side of the road...in the ditch beside the road...there are several rotting corpses...white and red..."

The female relatives in the carriage felt creepy, but they didn't see it with their own eyes, they were not like Mi Xia, who just peeped at each other and didn't know what to say.This Jining is a famous bustling place, how could there be corpses on the side of the road?

Danghu, who was riding a tall horse, also turned pale, with acid regurgitation in his mouth.

In November last year, Pinghu had already saved up some money, and went to Fu Niang to mention Caiyun's matter.Fu Niang asked Caiyun, and seeing that Caiyun agreed, she decided for them and picked a date to get married.Right now, the two of them are staying in Linqing City together, taking care of the Cang Yan Luo Zhao Room.

The group of people walked a few miles further, and saw someone collecting corpses by the side of the road.The corpse that passed by just now must have not been received there yet.They travel light and fast, and if they get off the boat more slowly, they may not be seen.

Those corpses were so thin that only a handful of bones remained, and they should have starved to death.Jining City is close to the canal, and some coolies can make money. How can someone starve to death?

Zheng Zhao sighed, stopped two pedestrians, and gave them money.

"Those are all from the lower villages. There was a flood last year, the fields were confiscated, and the Yanshenggong Mansion didn't exempt rent, so many people starved to death. They haven't died yet, but they are still alive."

"Official servants eat dry food for nothing, and they actually let them run into the city. These past few months have been stinking to the sky, and there have been thieves and robbers. My wife dare not go out to buy rice."

"You're talking too much. You can't blame the officials. The old and the young are probably dead in the village. These men who ran into the city are men in their twenties. They can survive and hide."

"So what if they're all men? They don't have the strength, so why can't they stop them? I think the officials are the ones who treat us honestly and do business with us. If they really meet the ones, they lose all their abilities."

Knowing almost everything, and not in the mood to persuade him to make peace, Zheng Zhao went to the city to find Guan Ya to buy a house.

Unlike the suburbs, the city of Jining is bustling and prosperous.Selling southern fruits and porcelain, the piano shop is separated from the furniture shop by a wall, and the silk shop is still an official shop.

"Hey, stop." Suddenly someone shouted, and then a few strong men stopped them in the street, each rolling up their sleeves.

The leading man was about thirty years old, wearing silk, holding a fan in his hand, squinting a pair of mouse eyes, carefully looked at Zheng Zhao, and then said to Pinghu who was riding on the horse: "The Shengfu is selecting music and dance students. We took this person away."

As he said that, he was going to pull Zheng Zhao.
