[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City

When disaster victims enter the country, it is unavoidable to be in a hurry.

It took a full day from the first disaster victim set foot on the land of the Song Dynasty until the last group of supporters entered. From sunrise to sunset, the Song Army's crossbow machine was facing the opposite side from beginning to end.

Fortunately, the Liao army did not seem to have any intention of conflicting with the victims of Song Yin, and they completed the exchange of victims in a relatively relaxed manner.

Afterwards, the Song army, who had already prepared, offered hot porridge and clothes to keep out the cold, as well as medicine to keep out the cold. They lived in a corner of the border town, and the officials sent to meet them were already in place. After two days, the victims who were in good health could follow the officials southward.

If there is an obstacle, you can stay for a while, and leave after you recover. All expenses during the period will be borne by the Song Dynasty officials.

The locals in Tangzhou and Dengzhou, Henan Province have already received information. Prepare your household records. No matter where your original household registration is, you can settle in these two states.

Xia Anran is in charge of all the arrangements here.

King Pingnan, who appeared here in place of the Great Song Emperor, was kind and friendly, and all the arrangements were well organized without any mistakes or omissions.He cross-inserted these disaster victims into the counties of the two states at an extremely fast speed, whether near or far away, it looked extremely normal, and he did not take a defensive posture.

During this period, he met with the envoys sent by the Liao State many times, but all the envoys who wanted to return the victims returned without success. Before Xia Anran came, he had memorized the laws and important documents of Song and Liao. The reason why he ordered the Song army not to cross the river to meet the blank area left by the two armies that day.

According to today's regulations, whoever enters the land belongs to him. When Song asked for traitors and traitors, the Liao Kingdom also refused for this reason. Now Song Zi will not return the population.

After all, these people came to our Song Dynasty out of complete freedom. My Song Lord is merciful, and if he sees that he has no clothes to cover his body and no food to eat, he will accept them and return them?Then you roar to see who is willing to go with you?

The Liao envoy choked, his eyes were like copper bells, and he glared fiercely at the little prince of the Song Dynasty. He felt that there was nowhere to vent his anger. Idiot prince?Then you tell me what a smart person is like?It was because of this information that I didn't take this girl seriously. When I found out, I had already fallen into eighteen pits!

Those who collect information are also extremely helpless, they are only responsible for analyzing the information they receive!To blame can only be blamed on the spy agencies lurking in the Song Dynasty who missed this master just now.

Not only people from the Liao Kingdom, but also King Taiping was somewhat surprised. He and this junior of King Pingnan had only met once in Beijing, and it was at the royal banquet. It seems that he underestimated this man, thinking that this Southern King had hidden his clumsiness before, so that no one would discover his talent just now.

Xia Anran, who was slandered by everyone, didn't care so much. At this moment, his mind was running at a high speed, and he could seal the household registration manual in his hand, and he would bring the bureaucrats of the imperial city to observe who had a good relationship with whom, who Quickly compare the information of who has disagreements and who has had disputes, and then quickly filter in the brain based on the distribution preference form filled in by the victims, while filling in the settled persons and village arrangements on a large distribution paper.

Due to time constraints, he, who has a strong memory, can only write all this. Although Bai Jinxi can also help, but his identity is sensitive, it is not easy to get involved in this matter.

Such a violent brain move made him feel a headache after a while, so he had to get up and bask in the sun to let his mind go. Who would have thought that just by relaxing, he would grab a familiar face from the crowd, alas, isn't it Kou Zhun's little grandson?

The little gentleman who made eye contact with him hesitated for a moment, but still leaned over holding a basket of steamed pancakes. He handed a pancake to Xia Anran, who squinted and smiled, took the pancake, and put it away casually. Laughing at the table, "Why are you here?"

Before this little man was transferred away, Xia Anran was still lost for a long time. He didn't expect to meet him here. He looked up and down this young man's attire and asked in a low voice, "Are you working in the kitchen?"

Xiao Lang nodded with a smile, his eyes sparkled, and Xia Anran knew that there was a confidentiality policy immediately after seeing him without saying much, and since he didn't have much contact with him, he smiled and took another steamed cake to thank him, and sent him away In the rear, he arranged work for the subordinates while biting the pancake he took. There were many and complicated things to do to accommodate the victims, and before he knew it, all the people who served him were sent out.

Xia Anran stretched her waist, copied the pancakes, and with a snap of her fingertips, opened some of the steamed pancakes Kou Xiaolang gave to her. The insides were filled with pork. Xia Anran blinked, studied carefully, and then picked out A note with a special texture was drawn out.

I don't know how this person wrapped the paper in the flour and steamed it in a pan without steaming the paper. These spies are the potential stocks for scientists, right?He cursed in his heart, then ate the remaining steamed pancakes in two or three bites, then pulled out another one from his sleeve and put it on the table as if by magic, and then hurried away to clean his hands.

A moment later, when he came in shaking the water marks on his hands, he saw a small official waiting for him, Xia Anran greeted him as if nothing had happened, and listened to the small official report the situation and progress to him, while listening to Xia Anran, grasping Picked up the leftover pancakes and stuffed them into his mouth, his cheeks swollen. At the same time, he kept his hands on and was still replying to the official documents. When one article was approved and he finished eating the steamed pancakes, he handed it to the little official for him. order to go down.

When he heard the little official say that the resettlement of the disaster victims has encountered some troubles and he needs to make up his mind, Xia Anran got up and strode out, "Come and tell me how many people are still waiting to be resettled?"

"Going back to the prince, there are still more than [-] people. About [-]% are men, and [-]% are women and children."

"So..." Xia Anran thought for a while, "When will the first batch of chariots and horses arrive in Tangzhou?"

"About twenty days."

That means it's impossible to come back.

Xia Anran made strides, and quickly calculated in her mind, "It's too late to send people again. If you miss the spring plowing, it will be a loss for the people."

And when there is nothing to do in the place, it is easy to cause chaos. Whether it is to resettle the victims or the disorderly people, one important point is that they must not be left empty.It is easy for people to think blindly when they are free, and it is easy to cause trouble when they think blindly.

So... "How much relief money is there from the government?"

The little official reported a number, and Xia Anran calculated, "It should be enough, let's go and invite someone from the Taiping Army Escort Bureau."

"My lord... are you going to ask someone from the Escort Bureau to escort you? Is this...something wrong?" the little official stammered, "It's too indecent to the victims."

"No, I didn't ask the Escort Bureau to escort the victims." Xia Anran smiled, his eyes were clear, and when he smiled, it was like rain and dust. Included in the cargo."

"I've already brought the things..." As he spoke, he kept walking, and took the little official to see a stone tablet. There were a few scattered seal carvings on it. It is the surname of Gui Song Yanmin that they have registered these days,

He suddenly realized what the prince wanted to do.

The seal engraving of this stele by the government shows that these big families will settle here. This not only gives these victims a sense of belonging, but also benefits the local government. Turning it into a small stock is also more convenient in management.

At the same time, for the victims of the disaster, it is more meaningful for them to personally escort their belongings into the local area. It is a win-win for three, but...

"My lord, is the remaining resettlement fee enough for King Taiping and the others to accept this order?"

Xia Anran smiled and said, but her expression showed no nervousness, "It should be possible, if not, I'll talk to him about the price."

Negotiate the price... with whom?King Taiping?

The little official was stunned to see that King Pingnan and King Taiping only talked for a while, and then they called each other "Nephew" and "Uncle Emperor". King Taiping agreed to the request without any hesitation, and at the end he paid out of his own pocket for traveling expenses.

The atmosphere of each other is extremely happy and harmonious.

After talking about this cooperation, Xia Anran returned to the tent with the small official's head full of question marks and his face full of "I really want to know" and "This must be the exchange of rights between big shots!" Loosen the collar of the clothes, thinking in my heart.

Where is it so complicated, Prince Taiping was just confiscated, and because he disappeared, Zhao Zhen didn't give much judgment.For the sake of his son's life and the accumulation of pleading chips for his son in the future, King Taiping naturally wanted to give the emperor some face, not to mention just reducing the price, even if it was free, he would accept it.

There are many things that can be solved with money are not things at all. I am afraid that there is no way to solve them with money, and then it will be troublesome.King Taiping has been stationed here for many years, and his family has a big business, so he doesn't care about this idea at all.

And because of the secret letter that Kou Xiaolang handed over, Xia Anran squeezed his jaw and narrowed his eyes. Kou Xiaolang said that he seemed to have found the whereabouts of Prince Taiping, and he felt that Prince Taiping was in the north, although he didn’t say it clearly. But Xia Anran felt that the reason why King Taiping was as stable as Mount Tai was probably because he already knew the news that his son was still alive.

Tsk, forget it, anyway, Zhao Zhen didn't ask him to find out the whereabouts of the prince, so he just pretended not to know.

There are so many things to worry about now, and he doesn't have the energy to take care of it for a while.

Just when he was thinking this way, he heard a movement from the soldiers at the door, the curtain of the camp tent was lifted, followed by the smell he was already familiar with filling the room, Xia Anran only felt his whole body relax, and after a sense of peace of mind was born. He didn't even bother to open his eyes, he just tilted his head, "Ze Zhen."

"Well, are you tired?" Warm big hands gently pressed his head, and pushed down the small soft hair on the top of his head. Xia Anran lifted his chin, the meaning was obvious: I want to kiss, I want to hug .

In exchange for his actions, the man laughed softly. The man held him half in his arms, palms facing each other, a warm current passed from the intercourse, and Xia Anran was so comfortable that he hummed until his whole body was warm. Yes, Bai Jinxi just broke the link between the two. He pressed his lover's shoulder and neck with one hand. Pain, take it easy"

Second Young Master Bai frowned, he moved the charcoal fire to make it burn hotter, then motioned for Xia Anran to take off his underwear, then took out a jar of ointment and applied it to the place where his lover's blood stagnated.

"Don't, don't, don't stare here and press it, turn around, hiss..."

"It hurts here too?"

"painful."

"You've been at your desk for too long, haven't you had much rest these days?"

"Busy moving people away." Xia Anran walked away from the table, and threw himself on the small couch at the back. He lay on the quilt and let the man's palm press on his back. After Bai Ershao's pressing, the swelling subsided, and she became much more comfortable.

He couldn't help sighing because of the worries in his heart, "If it wasn't too cold when crossing the river, some people still caught cold, it could have been faster."

"An extra day of these people staying here is a day's risk."

"Afraid of the spies?" Bai Jinxi's voice was deep, Xia Anran's mouth curled up, and she closed her small almond eyes and said lazily, "I'm not afraid of spies. Song and Liao have never exchanged spies. What I'm afraid of is the epidemic."

"So you give people an excuse to start a new life and burn their clothes?"

"uh-huh."

Bai Jinxi sighed, "You know, this move is enough to make some people hate you."

Xia Anran smiled, "Why do I want so many people to love me?"

His eyes were shining, as if he had caught the blue waves, and seemed to have pulled down the stars all over the sky, "As long as you like me, that's all."

Bai Ershao was stunned for a moment, he stood up suddenly, dipped his hands into the warm water beside him, and then washed the ointment between his fingertips with saponins, Xia Anran looked at his actions inexplicably, and tilted his head "Why are you washing your hands?"

"This ointment reduces swelling and loosens tendons. It is a wonderful medicine in the army. It feels hot when used on the body."

"?"

"If I don't wash it off, you'll cry later."

"...?????"

Bai Jinxi dried his hands and walked over, "I don't like you crying because of other things."

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Anran fell asleep until three times a day, setting a record for the longest sleep since entering this place.

Regarding this record, King Pingnan said that he did not want to talk about it, as long as everyone knows it well.

With the departure of the last batch of victims, Xia Anran and others who are in charge of the case will also return to Beijing. Before leaving, he and the generals here had a meal of authentic roast mutton by a campfire in the snow in spring. Pang Tong, a general of the Northern Army, also wanted to give him a porpoise they raised, but Xia Anran declined, so Pang Tong ordered shoes from him instead.

Xia Anran was immediately interested in this business. He opened the booklet and had a lively discussion with Pang Tong on the appearance and function of military boots.

And soon Pingnan Wang also joined in. After signing a big order, Xia Anran waved to everyone and happily returned to Beijing.

Zhao Zhen was very satisfied with his younger brother's beautiful work, and opened an imperial temple because of this. This time, nearly [-] households moved back to Song Dynasty and finally settled down. People in the Song Dynasty quickly pieced together the current internal situation of the Liao Kingdom.

Internal and external troubles.

This word can be used to describe the Liao Kingdom.

Emperor Liao was old, but every emperor was old, and he would always have some old problems, such as being soft-hearted towards old ministers, cherishing his own reputation too much, attaching importance to religion, and longing for longevity. ——The son is weak and the mother is strong.

In fact, Emperor Liao established the eldest son as the crown prince more than ten years ago, and established the establishment of the eldest son inheritance system, but the crown prince Yelu Zongzhen is only 13 years old this year, even if the false age and age are added. Only fifteen.

And his biological mother, Xiao Yujin, was an extremely powerful woman, who repeatedly plotted against Empress Daliao and discovered that Bodhisattva Xiao, Zongzhen's adoptive mother, had no relationship with Zongzhen herself. The youngest son, Yelu Chongyuan.

Although the emperor is a sensible person and has never wavered and scolded him many times, this is only to temporarily curb his biological mother's ambition.

Shengzong of Liao had lived in the shadow of his mother Empress Dowager Xiao for decades, so he naturally didn't want his son to follow suit, but people in the Liao Kingdom respected filial piety and valued their mother's status. Falling into infamy, so the situation was embarrassing for a while.

At this time, Yandi was suffering from famine year after year, so Shengzong focused on it for the time being. Unexpectedly, Yandi was not resettled, lost a large number of people, and was preempted by Song people. He was not happy at all. The Bohai Sea is in chaos again.

In June of that year, Yanlin of the Liao Dynasty launched a rebellion, imprisoned Xiao Xiaoxian and Princess Nanyang, who were left behind in Tokyo, the captain of the attached horse, and Princess Nanyang.

Establishing a country on the territory of the Liao Kingdom, using such a country name, is undoubtedly slapping the Liao Emperor in the face. Before the Liao Emperor can react, the rebellion team is getting more and more popular.

The Jurchens, who had been repeatedly suppressed by the Liao Dynasty in the past few years, also joined the rebellion team. Dayanlin armed the troops with weapons he did not know where. He captured Baozhou City and Shenzhou City one after another. The oppressed peasants in the area were the main force, backed by the Jurchen tribe, and at the same time accepted the Koguryo materials that came to pay tribute.

Liao Shengzong was extremely annoyed by the failure of the succession. Given the size of the Liao Kingdom, it was in a stalemate with a mere small land. In addition, Dayanlin occupied the best piece of farmland on the Liaodong Plain. There is no doubt that it can be self-sufficient. Don't let it grow stronger.The east and west of this place are mountains, and the south is the Bohai Sea. If they want to gain a firm foothold, they only need to block off the northern part, which is extremely difficult to attack.

And the challenge of establishing a country is unbearable for every emperor, so Emperor Liao mobilized [-] troops with the intention of taking this place.

The coincidence of history is that at the same time, Song and Liao, the two superpowers on the East Asian plate, encountered the same problem.

Yes, Song State encountered another rebel minister, it was King Xiangyang.

Previously, after Xia Anran fanned the flames, everyone turned their attention to the always low-key King Xiangyang, and in this world, everything could not stand the word "scrutiny".

If you look at anything with a magnifying glass, you can always see the good and the bad.

This is what happened to King Xiangyang.

Whether it was the four mice who went to Xiangyang to investigate, the martial arts people who went to join in the fun, or went to the "sacred land parade" to see the lakes and mountains in the novel, they didn't expect that they actually caught a big fish.

Compared with the scheming a few years later, the current King of Xiangyang still does not have the ability to do everything, especially in his own territory, so it is inevitable to leave a total account.

If he wanted to rebel, he naturally had to accumulate a lot of money, and the biggest source of finance for King Xiangyang was the sale of weapons and human trafficking.

However, as Zhao Zhen repeatedly checked the middle and lower-level bureaucrats with a comb, reduced the army in various places, re-divided the sphere of influence, and sent troops to the Party and Jiaozhi, including the subsequent reduction in the number of ordnance bureaus, all disrupted his plan time and time again.

As the saying goes, running water does not rot, household hinges do not rot, because a dynamic and constantly changing environment makes it difficult for people to grasp the laws and make use of them. In this environment, people's instinct is to stand still and do more. The easier it is to expose.

It's a pity that the king of Xiangyang had made frequent moves before, and when the policy changed, he couldn't brake suddenly, so he naturally fell into clues.

But frankly speaking, the king of Xiangyang was not wronged at all. Before that, in order to ensure the source of population and avoid the discovery of lone travelers, he built Xiangyang City into an open city, and the population circulation of Song Dynasty itself was extremely convenient. , since Song Duo encourages the circulation of merchants, there are no restrictions on the movement of people.

But in Xiangyang City, you can stay anywhere without providing identification, and this place has become a place where criminals gather.

But the same environment also made the king of Xiangyang not enough for the newcomers, and lost the opportunity to control the overall situation in the first place.

If a few years later, when he had finished accumulating energy and was ready to start an attack, he would definitely not have made such a stupid mistake. But at this time, he was still in the stage of resource accumulation, so he never cared about these trivial matters.

Therefore, he was exposed by a gang of bandits.

This cargo trafficker has already been registered in Kaifeng Mansion, and he is the backbone of the human trafficking group. As a guard at the gate of the city, he must clearly remember the portraits of rewards and arrests that appear every time, but this group of people appears openly In Xiangyang City, at the same time, he also brought several carriages that were exempted from inspection. The strangeness naturally attracted the attention of interested people.

That night, Sishu, who arrived here first, went to investigate and confirmed that there were a dozen sleepy women and a few children tied up in the carriage, and immediately confirmed the identity of this group of people as "human traffickers".Jiang Ping stopped the other three brothers. They didn't alarm the traffickers, they just wanted to see where these "goods" were being transported, whether Xiangyang City was a transit point or the final destination.

Only in this way can we follow the vine to catch the melon and wipe out the wicked one by one.

The king of Xiangyang has been operating here for many years, consciously controlling the overall situation, and he didn't pay much attention to it, so he let these four righteous men touch his head.

Human trafficking alone can't cure him of his crime, but what if privately forged weapons are added?

If you want to rebel, besides a lot of wealth, you need weapons. Xiangyang is a heavily guarded place in the Song Dynasty. Too passive, and after all the ordnance he can embezzle in the military town is limited, so he secretly bought a mining area and smelted it on the spot.

It is a serious crime to mine mines without permission.

The four mice figured out all this and wanted to leave Shangjing, but before they left, they ran into Ouyang Chun, an equally famous but never-before-seen Northern Xia, who came here to investigate the flooding of the Huaihe River.

It turned out that this Northern Xia was boating on the river a few days ago, and happened to meet a group of water bandits who robbed his boat. After he drew his sword to help, the water bandits who were subdued said that they had backers and threatened him.

The more Bei Xia thought about it afterwards, the more he felt that something was wrong, so he followed the vine of the water bandit and touched the melon of the King of Xiangyang. After exchanging information with Bei Xia, they compiled the information into a book and entrusted Lu Fang, who is the most reliable, to take it. Kaifeng Mansion was handed over to Bao Zheng.

Xiangzhou is closer to Kaifeng than Xia Anran went south, so when Xia Anran returned to Beijing, he heard that the matter had been heard by heaven, and Bao Zheng had already sent experienced Zhan Zhao to Xiangyang secretly, To cover Zhan Zhao, Bao Zheng is asking the officials to order another imperial envoy to attract attention.

Zhao Zhen is hesitating about this opinion, one is who to send, and the other is that since this person is an imperial envoy, if he really alarms the King of Xiangyang, his safety will be guaranteed, and if it is one, he may lose his life.Xia Anran, who had just returned, stood up.

===

In the seventh year of Tiansheng, at the end of July, a decree was issued now that Pingnan King Zhao Weineng was already healthy, so he was allowed to return to the fief and take his post as Pingnan King.

All counties and counties on land should give them convenience.

This decree shocked many people.

Just when everyone thought King Pingnan would be trapped to death in Bianjing, the emperor actually released him? !

The common people gossiped a lot. People who said that the emperor was filthy shut their mouths one after another. Counties and counties along the way complained incessantly. How did this convenience be provided and according to what specifications?Official, you should make it clear first so that we can count!

Fortunately, because of the hot weather, and because the emperor was worried about his recovery from a serious illness, he did not set a time for him to return to the fiefdom, so King Pingnan's team went south stop and go, and it was quite a trip to the mountains and rivers along the way. Don't disturb the local government.

After a long time, everyone secretly praised King Pingnan in their hearts, and at the same time put this matter behind their heads. Unexpectedly, after a long time, King Pingnan would make a big deal out of it.

When the prince went south, he thought about visiting the last prince he had never seen before, so he set foot on the fleet to Xiangyang. Of course, as an official visit, he also posted a special post. The king of Xiangyang in the post suddenly became one head and two big.

As the saying goes, the king of Dao does not see the king, and this king of Pingnan specially came to visit, which undoubtedly brought everyone's attention to Xiangyang. Almost without thinking, Zhao Jue can guess that after this meeting, there will be some surprises. Few people intend to guess what the two of them said and whether there is a tendency to form an alliance.

After all, King Pingnan's fief is in the south of Shu, and Xiangzhou is the only way for him to go north. The choice of the two princes to gather together at this time is simply capitalized: I have a conspiracy.

King Xiangyang felt that he was innocent, at least in this matter, he was innocent, he almost wanted to raise his head and shout loudly: I am wronged!

Although he did have a conspiracy, he definitely has nothing to do with King Pingnan, but now that King Pingnan is doing this, he can't escape the responsibility. From the eyes of people engaged in espionage, it is "If you have nothing to do with him, why is he Want to come to you?" interrogated by the soul, is he going to answer "I don't know!"?In addition, now that he is focusing on low-key development, but people with their own light sources come to him, it is really itchy for those who hate him.

But he couldn't find a reasonable reason to refuse, so he could only put on a false smile and introduce the troublesome King Pingnan into the Xiangyang Palace.

The two exchanged cups and cups until halfway through the banquet and did not get to the point. After confronting each other, King Xiangyang secretly thought in his heart: This king of Pingnan is slippery, which is different from what I thought, not reckless. Since he came here with such great fanfare, there must be some reason for him.

The reason for this... Could it be... wanting to conspire with me for a great cause?

Some inexplicable thoughts swirled in his mind, just as he signaled the woman to come and serve him with his eyes, he suddenly saw Xia Anran falling headlong, unexpectedly drunk.

King Xiangyang was shocked, he didn't expect the plot to develop like this, if he didn't know better than anyone else that he didn't do anything, he might think that he deliberately got people drunk to create a chance for them to stay overnight.

It's a pity that there is not much information about King Pingnan outside, and he couldn't figure out whether this King Nan really didn't drink well, or did it on purpose. If there is no wind, if you drive people away at this time, it will be a feud.

The next day, the young prince, who had been drunk for a while, came to apologize with a face of shame, and the two were finally able to communicate normally. It turned out that this King Pingnan made a special detour this time because he wanted to ask the King of Xiangyang to buy the dry goods here. And rice products.

Some expectations in King Xiangyang's heart were let go, but seeing that King Pingnan came to send money, he still helped him connect with his cronies.

Xiangyang fungus and shiitake mushrooms are very famous in the south, and they are extremely popular in various places. In the Song Dynasty, when all people were merchants, it was not surprising that Xia Anran, as a prince, came to talk to the Prince of Xiangyang, who was also a prince.

In addition, Xia Anran brought a large amount of supplies from the north during this trip, especially furs. As a door-to-door worship, Xia Anran's gift list included a black wolf fur, which is considered rare here.

For such a beautiful gift list, the King of Xiangyang would never refuse. After a few words of politeness, he asked to see what Xia Anran brought. If it was convenient, he also wanted to buy some for the family. An Ran asked people to open the cage and waved his big hand to say, pick whatever you want.

When King Pingnan entered Xiangyang Mansion, he brought more than a dozen carriages, and almost all the wheel marks could be sunken by more than half an inch. Therefore, King Pingnan had many scruples because of this at the beginning. Now he sees this being shown by his master without hesitation. When the carloads of glass jars came out, his expression suddenly turned blank.

Xia Anran didn't seem to know it, so she greeted him very warmly, he took it when he liked it, but the kindness was hard to give up, the King of Xiangyang took a small lantern.

After taking things, you have to do things. In the next few days, Xia Anran had some friendly exchanges with many merchants in Xiangyang City. The King of Xiangyang watched for a long time, and felt that it was really unpredictable, and he did not dare to relax his vigilance. He could only watch them every day. Report and analyze the prince's words, trying to find out the rules.

He didn't know that the purpose of Xia Anran's trip was to restrain him, and other than that, it was a public trip, so his words and deeds were all from the heart, where could there be any rules or codes?

But it was a waste of effort.

But such an effect is just right, Xia Anran's desired effect has been achieved, and he stayed here safely, restraining most of Xiangyang King's energy, there is simply no face T more qualified than him!

He thought with some pride.

Xiangyang is in the middle reaches of the Han River. It is known as the thoroughfare of the seven provinces, and the prince sits in the town. The commerce and trade are extremely developed. Here he can buy lychees and citrus from the north besides local specialties. , Dongjin's candied dates, peaches and other specialties, but the one that fascinates him the most is a bamboo bear.

That's right, the panda that he has been thinking about since he stepped into Bianjing is finally here!

Xia Anran couldn't let go of the little panda from Sichuan, even if the panda was plucking his hair.He was so happy that he rubbed back and forth on the dense lanugo of the red panda, not caring that it was stained with dust, just kidding, even if it is dust, but the soil on the national treasure is fragrant, and the smell of taking a deep breath is the same as other places totally different.

He has visited the Kaifeng Fu Night Market many times, but he has never met a panda. It is said that he sometimes misses the bamboo bear when he comes to it. Moreover, the bamboo bear is delicate and eats a lot, so the merchants don't like to enter.

"My lord, do you like this bamboo bear?" The accompanying guards were extremely puzzled when they saw Xia Anran hugging him fondly, "But it... has no color..."

"Nonsense, black and white are not colors!" Xia Anran stared wide-eyed and despised these Song people, how beautiful black and white are!In particular, Mao Mao was still the length of a hand that could be stuffed into it for a few rounds. Looking at the short-legged and big-eyed man, his claws couldn't even hug his neck.

Super cute!

Xia Anran was so excited that he asked the seller how much it cost. The seller was a little stunned when he heard that Xia Anran was King Pingnan. Then he hesitated for a long time and stretched out five fingers, and then retracted two after a while.

Xia Anran looked at it and thought for a while, "How about this, I'll give you five guan, why don't you give me all these bamboos."

"Huh?" The mountain man was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly waved his hands, "My lord, it's wrong, it's not Wuguan, it's five hundred wen."

Xia Anran was silent for a moment, "Five hundred?"

"Ah, actually," he coughed dryly, "the small one is just here to sell dried bamboo shoots, and this bamboo bear is here to solicit business..."

Xia Anran was silent for a while, and suddenly felt sad, Fat Da, Fat Da!This era can't understand your cuteness!

He coughed dryly, hugged the bear in his hand and asked, "Are you a mountain dweller nearby?"

After getting an affirmative answer, he asked in a low voice, "Then have you ever seen a little monkey called a black ink monkey? The kind with fingers so big that it can grind ink." =w=
