Ding Tian's Ancient Life

"This place is not bad!" Ding Tian got out of the car and stretched his waist very comfortably. This is a good place for "autumn outing"

But there are 600 of them here... Hehe, there is nowhere to be seen.

And even if it was lunch at noon, it was eaten by shifts. Half of the people ate and the other half stood guard. They didn't know where they were assigned to track and field. There were too many people, and Ding Tian looked around but couldn't find anyone.

"They are arranged by the rear army, don't look at it." Wang Zuo greeted him: "What do you want to eat?"

"Eat whatever you have, it doesn't matter." Ding Tian gritted his teeth.

"Then eat some stew." Wang Zuo turned around and signaled Wang Fugui to make arrangements.

Wang Fugui left, and after a while, the curtain on the car was rolled up, revealing the screen window inside, and Wang Fugui carried things in and out of the car himself.

Ding Tian and Wang Zuo walked for a while on the barren meadow, and found that the whole land was covered with withered grass, and the stream next to it was so clear that the water level had a clear downward trend, and there were still some fish swimming in it. Yes, but they are not too big, so... no one eats them.

This is how you can travel in the wild.

"This time, what kind of prey do you want to hunt?" It's rare to come out together, the two of them are a little fresh, Wang Zuo really wants to know, can Ding Tian... know how to hunt?

"For me, just kill two rabbits, or get two little bastards, give my two cousins ​​to play with, the purse embroidered by the two children, the shoes I made, I have already said, don't do too much needlework, at home It’s not that I don’t have money, just hire someone to do it, what should I do if I’m young and my eyes are broken?” Ding Tian complained: “It’s better to go out every day to see the green mountains and green waters.”

"Girls don't know how to sew, and they will be laughed at by their in-laws when they marry in the future." Wang Zuole said, "I heard that there are people on the other side of Baiyun Mountain.

A kind of white fox, I want to hunt, the fox fur is stored, and then sent to the capital as a tribute. "

"You have to think about the year-end tribute now!" Ding Tian was very surprised: "It's so early!"

It's only late autumn, and winter hasn't even arrived yet, so I have to think about the New Year... It's too early, and it's too early to plan.

Every year before New Year's Eve and after the pen is sealed, the emperor's relatives, civil and military officials in court, and all officials will send something to the emperor.

This thing is called "annual gift" in ordinary people, and "heli" in wealthy families, which means congratulating the new year.

But those given to the emperor are called "tributes".

What to give, don't compare, but it must be novel and interesting; the price is not particular, but it is impossible to send two salted fish to the palace.

Anyway, there are good things in the palace.

"It's getting late, and some people have even arranged for next year's annual ceremony." Wang Zuole said, "I can't make any more arrangements when the time comes."

Bar?Then it will be too late.In the palace, all the annual ceremonies are arranged within three to five years, and it will be fine to send them to the palace at that time, but I think that is too deliberate, and the emperor will not accept those things, he only accepts that I give them to him He also said that those gold, silver and jade objects should neither be eaten nor drunk, but to be kept for viewing... After ten years of watching, I have long been tired of looking at them. "

Ding Tian envied: "It's really rich!"

He came to this conclusion.

Wang Zuo couldn't laugh or cry: "You!"

He was in a bad mood when he said these things and mentioned the palace, but Ding Tian only noticed his money?

This surprised him too much.

Perhaps, what he cared about was the simplicity, not the inner complexity.

"I'm going to investigate the case, not go hunting. Well, we will investigate the case as soon as possible, and then go hunting with you. By the way, can you hunt down the white fox? Then do you have any other New Year ceremony?" Ding Tian asked him: " There are not many specialties here, and the old mountain ginseng is quite famous, but it is something controlled by the imperial court..."

In ancient times, ginseng, which is said to be able to live and die, was controlled by the imperial court. There were special ginseng collectors, and the grades of ginseng dug out were ordinary goods that people outside could buy. Naturally, there are hundred-year-old ginseng at home, so the one in the palace is estimated to be thousands of years old, right?

Ding Tian thought wildly.

"Okay, I'll be stationed outside the county seat. When the time comes, you've finished your case and come to me." Wang Zuo looked at a flock of wild geese flying by in the sky: "White clouds fly when the autumn wind rises, and the geese return to the south when the grass and trees turn yellow.... "

Just when he was in a good mood, Ding Tianying, drooling, pointed at the wild goose and shouted: "Shoot the wild goose down! Roast the wild goose for dinner at night."

Wang Zuo suddenly lost that mood.

Seeing Zhang Luo jumping up and down in Ding Tian, ​​many people took turns to rest at the stalls, already bent their bows and set arrows. There were only about twenty wild geese in the row in the sky, but after a bunch of arrows passed, only the head goose was left alone. flew away.

"Hurry up and pick up wild geese! Grill them tonight!" On a whim, Ding Tian took Wang Zuo's hand and ran towards the place where the wild geese fell: "Hurry up!"

The cheerful smile made Wang Zuo's mood soar: "Let's go, pick up wild geese!"

And regret it, why did I patronize poetry just now?If he also shoots down wild geese with a bow and arrow, why won't this kid jump up happily?

The prince was dispatched, and there were quite a few followers. Fortunately, the place where the geese fell was nearby, surrounded by two hundred soldiers, and moved forward. Twenty guards followed closely beside Wang Zuo. Ding Tian had already picked up three geese: " They are all good hands! Look at this arrow technique, wow ha ha ha!"

They all went through the eyes, and no arrow was shot on the body, master!

Wang Zuo couldn't laugh or cry: "People like them, if they shoot another wild goose to death, then don't follow me."

It was inconvenient for so many people to move, but Ding Tian still picked up eight geese, but Wang Zuo knew something was wrong after a quick glance: "There should be ten geese, why did you pick up eight? There are two more? "

"I picked them all up?" Ding Tian looked around, "It's gone?"

The wild geese are gray, and they are very conspicuous on the land covered with dry grass. Besides, they are the only ones here, and others will not pick them up, because they want to protect Wang Zuo in a large area. so it is.

"No, it's ten. Although I only took a look, I did see eleven wild geese in the sky..." Wang Zuo insisted

Ding Tian was stunned: "Who is it? Just one glance, you know eleven...you..."

"Who?" A personal guard pulled Ding Tian behind him, blocking Wang Zuo and Ding Tian's front, while the surrounding soldiers surrounded him with their knives.

"Don't kill me... I... I just picked up two wild geese..." It was a little girl, wearing patch upon patch clothes

She is only thirteen or fourteen, about the same age as Ding Tian's hall sister, timidly holding up the two wild geese in her hand: "I...I...

"

Although she was a little girl, everyone didn't relax...except Ding Tian, ​​he pushed away who was their person...didn't push.

"I said, the other party is a little girl, right?" Ding Tian jumped up and looked out: "There is no need for such a big battle." "That's different." Wang Zuo took his arm to prevent him from getting closer: "You don't get close, let Bai San'er ask questions." So Bai San'er had no choice but to go forward and ask, but he didn't know what he said, because there were many people between the two of them, Wang Zuo only pulled Ding Tian back : "Dinner is ready, go in to eat, Bai San'er will report back after asking."

"Oh, don't embarrass a little girl!" Ding Tian shouted loudly to Bai San'er: "Maybe she's just hungry."

It could be seen that the little girl... probably wanted to run away after picking up wild geese, but there were too many of them, and it was impossible to run away, so she had to stand up.

"Bai San'er will take care of it..." Wang Zuo heard Ding Tian's words of concern for the little girl, and suddenly, an unknown anger arose in his heart: "Go eat!"

The tone is not good.

Ding Tian was too familiar with him, he could hear that he was unhappy, could it be that he was hungry?

Back in the car, there were four dishes, one soup, and a plate of white steamed buns on the small square table, all of which were hot.

A large plate of stewed vermicelli with cabbage, a large plate of braised pork, a plate of sliced ​​sausages arranged in flowers, and a plate of stewed radish with beef.

The soup was egg soup, and Ding Tian stared at the dish of sausage in a daze: "This is...?"

"Eat." Wang Zuo coughed lightly: "It's better to hurry after eating, or you won't be able to reach the station at night."

"Oh...." Ding Tian took two mouthfuls before he realized it: "Isn't it right? In the past, when Madam went back and forth to Baiyun Nunnery to offer incense, she would spend the night in the nunnery and then return the next day. Why do we... go to the post station?"

Can't reach Baiyun County in one day?

"Ahem...we are taking another road." Wang Zuo coughed softly: "This road is relatively flat, so there is no rush anyway.

"

Can he say that for the convenience of going out to play, he chose a "play route"?

Fortunately, Ding Tian was the easiest to believe. He just said "oh" and started to eat, and then told Wang Zuo how delicious his meat sausage was.

"I don't eat offal...it's still intestines!" Wang Zuo looked disgusted.

"Then if you don't eat it, I'll eat it!" Ding Tian was overjoyed and killed all the sausages in one go.

But compared to Ding Tian eating it like this, the sausage is cut into slices and then lightly fried in soybean oil, until it is crispy and then out of the pan. Is this sausage cooked in the first place?

Ding Tian's mouth is full of oil, but the light cabbage stewed vermicelli is also very delicious, probably because the cabbage in autumn is very sweet

After eating, and about to leave, Bai San'er came over: "My lord, that girl is hiding on the mountain, she has nothing to eat, she is very hungry

That's why he thought about stealing two wild geese and going back to eat. "

"Oh." Wang Zuo nodded faintly: "Let's go."

That's it!

"Why don't you ask?" Ding Tian was a little surprised by Wang Zuo's reaction. Is there any snack here?

"Ask what?" The corner of Wang Zuo's mouth twitched, and the air-conditioning on his body let out like money: "I have rescued several girls like this, but all of them... don't worry about it."

Ding Tian looked at Wang Fugui, Wang Zuo is a concise person, but Wang Fugui is not!

"For the first time, the prince rescued a girl who was hunted down by bad guys. The girl's father gambled and lost her to the owner of the casino as a concubine. The prince rescued her, but she followed the prince into the palace. The second time was a little beggar who was about to starve to death, but the prince rescued her, but she was bought and poisoned for the sake of money!"

"Ah!" Ding Tian exclaimed.

"The third one..." Wang Fugui gritted his teeth and cursed after saying one thing. These are all girls saved by Wang Zuo, and they turned out to be bad things.

Ding Tian thought for a while: "Then I won't let you ask."

Wang Zuo nodded, thinking that he had let go of the matter, but Ding Tian turned his head and asked Bai San'er: "What are you doing hiding on the mountain?"

Wang Zuo didn't care, he had experienced this kind of thing too much, and he didn't have any sympathy for those who were deceived, but Ding Tian was different, Ding Tian still decided to ask.

"She said she was hiding from their master, who was going to kill her." Bai San'er then said cheerfully: "Speaking of which, everyone knows this person, and, Si Prison Ding, has something to do with you .”

"What does a girl have to do with him?" Wang Zuo's tone was very bad, and he was in a very bad mood.

"Report to the lord, this woman is the victim of the case that Ding Siyu wanted to investigate, Miss Cai's personal maid, Lan Lan!" Seeing that Wang Zuo was upset, Bai San'er quickly broke the news: "It is Cai who she wants to avoid. The family chased her down, or they wanted to bring her back, or sell her, or...dispose of her..."
