Chapter 109 Yan Xiaoliu

In a teahouse in the west of Nan'an County, the storyteller was telling the story of the eldest prince's expedition to conquer the country.

This storyteller is over fifty years old, has early baldness, is not tall, and has a head like a big wheel, with a green hair;

Beside him, stands a A head taller than him, a chubby apprentice.

The gentleman's surname is Guo, which means "dao", but this is not his real name. This kind of master who makes a living in the world rarely shows up by his real name.

Mr. Guo originally liked to talk about the affairs of wealthy families, about which family’s daughter hooked up with a poor scholar, and which family’s daughter had a tryst with the carpenter named Wang next door at night;

Later at night, I didn’t know who hit me with a sap, my head was bleeding, and I almost died. After that, I didn’t dare to talk about that anymore;

With the development of Yan’s foreign war, Continuously rising, Mr. Guo began to talk about the magnificent war that the Yan people loved to hear, and this gave him a second spring in his career. Several teahouses wanted to pay to poach him, and his worth was very high.

What is being told in the hall now is the story of the eldest prince leading an army into Chengguo. It is very timely and attracts a lot of listeners. However, the story is true and false, false and true, and inside No one knows whether some of it is dry goods and some of it is parallel imports.

I just know that even if the adults in the court want to see the battle report and the military situation, they have to wait for a long time for the eight hundred miles to rush over.

Over there, the eldest prince has just entered the country.

Here, in Mr. Guo’s story, the eldest prince has already taken the lead and personally killed several savage captains.

The apprentice next to him was honest and honest. He had just stepped onto the stage and was only responsible for complimenting him and not saying any unnecessary words. However, every time he opened his mouth, he seemed to be asking questions for the audience below.

Question after question, the story told is really exciting and interesting.

The audience did not try to determine whether the story was true or false, nor did they think about how the storyteller could know the situation on the front line earlier than the military intelligence.

As for Yan people, they have been intoxicated by one victory after another in the past two years. Anyway, they are the winners. No matter how much you brag, we men are still comfortable.

The county government’s new head catcher, Yan Xiaoliu, who had been in office for less than two months, was also leaning at the door of the teahouse, smiling and listening to Mr. Guo’s story.

When Mr. Yan first took office, many people in the government office thought he was young, and they secretly rumored that he was the brother-in-law of the county magistrate’s aunt and wife. It was estimated that he was a person who relied on connections. The wine bags and rice bags that came up.

The yamen is in deep water. In the county yamen, sometimes the county magistrate will just ignore you if he says that he will be ignored. Therefore, the people below him did not take him seriously at first.

But who knows, it has only been seven days since the arrival of the Yan Catcher, and he has tidied up the group of Catchers under him, as if they were the boss. From above, from the county magistrate, county prime minister, He established connections between the chief clerk and the subordinates, as well as the supervisors and supervisors in each class.

Don’t be arrogant, knows etiquette when advancing and retreating, but makes you dare not look down on him. In a yamen, if everyone from top to bottom is polite to you, it will be difficult to live a happy life.

Nan'an County is located in Tiancheng County. It is not very close to the capital, but it is definitely not far away. It cannot be regarded as the emperor's feet, but you can vaguely smell the emperor's athlete's foot.

In addition, His Majesty has repeatedly launched wars in the past two years, which has made prisoners extremely scarce. However, those who have done anything, from being a gangster to stealing an egg from a neighbor, are all sent to the front line. .

Speaking of severe punishment, it is difficult for people to say "no". After all, no matter what the contradiction is, as long as the battle is being won outside, it is not a contradiction, but the public security atmosphere , it really gives people a feeling of "like a spring breeze".

For this reason, Yan Captou had nothing to do on weekdays. As usual, he collected filial piety on the street, and then led a group of brothers to wander around, and his life was quite leisurely.

The shopkeeper in the teahouse saw Yan Captou coming and immediately came over to invite the guests to sit on the second floor. Yan Captou refused. He only said that he was on official business and it was not convenient to enter. I grabbed a handful of melon seeds in my pocket and ate them while listening.

The shopkeeper brought another small stool with a cup of tea on it, bowing and saying:

"You can use it."

"Haha."

Yan Captou was not a stingy person. He took out two pieces of silver from his pocket, one was for tea and the other was for Mr. Guo.

The protection fee I just collected from the rouge shop in front of me still smells of powder.

"You're generous."

The shopkeeper didn't refuse. Drinking tea in a teahouse and giving rewards to craftsmen is a very prestigious thing. If you insist on not accepting it, then Just don’t give me face.

Over there, Mr. Guo received the reward. He smiled and led his apprentice to bow to the gate where Yan Captou was standing. The master and apprentice said in unison:

After thanking you,

Mr. Guo asked his apprentice again:

"Where did we just talk about?"

“Speaking of the fact that the Emperor Chengguo left the eldest prince as an orphan before his death.”

“That’s not a big deal. The Emperor Chengguo Situ Lei knew that his life was not long, so he ordered himself to be the emperor. Our eldest prince was invited by Fu Sun Youdao from the army.

The eldest prince wore golden armor and a red cloak, followed by two generals, Li Bao and Li Fusheng, and thousands of soldiers. , Good fellow, have the people of the Situ family ever seen such a mighty master?

Those princesses and concubines, look at our eldest prince, then? My saliva is dripping down!"

Yes,

Mr. Guo just won the award,

I feel a little excited,

While he was talking fiercely, he actually went back to the old routine of talking about romantic affairs.

“TrueFake? ”

“Yes, is it true?” ”

Some audience members have made comments below.

Your co-author, Mr. Guo, is the one who uses the spittoon to connect the water, so he was at the scene, so he saw it, right?

p>

Mr. Guo immediately said seriously:

"I wish you all know that the emperor of the Situ family has bad health and bones. He came back from Xuehai Customs with injuries, so, those The concubines in the harem have long been hungry and thirsty. Who will share the pools of spring water with? "

"Hahahaha! ! ! ! ! "

"Okay! ! ! ! "

"Reward! ! ! ! "

"Your Highness is mighty! ”

“How magnificent, my Prince Dayan! ”

How can we set off the atmosphere of street storytelling without a bit of pornography or exaggeration? Without such an atmosphere, how can we get people to reward us?

This world is To make a living, we are dealing with the working people, but if we talk about it like a snow, it loses its true meaning and appears nondescript.

Everyone is happy, the audience is happy, and the parents who live in food and clothing are happy, then it’s okay!

“Hey hey hey. ”

Yan Captou listened while lowering his voice and laughing.

Don’t say it,

He was really looking forward to the next plot turning to his eldest brother. And the stories that the concubines of the Chengguo harem had to tell.

However, at this moment, a head catcher came over and said:

"The big head, in the yamen." Something happened. "

"What's wrong? ”

“Dead man. ”

As soon as Yan Captou heard this, he immediately stuffed the remaining melon seeds in his hand into the hands of a man next to him who was huddled beside the door frame and listened.

Then, and The men rushed to the Yamen together.

Someone was indeed dead in the Yamen. When Yan came to the hall, he saw a man in black clothes sitting on the ground, holding a roast chicken in his left hand. , holding a jug of wine in his right hand, eating and drinking vigorously.

The county magistrate was sitting in the hall, and the police officers who came over were surrounding the man, but no one dared to come up to support him. /p>

Oh, by the way, there is a corpse lying down in the hall. This person is known to Yan Shaotou, Hou San'er, who runs a gambling house in the back street and distributes usury money.

This is it. By then, Hou San'er was already dead.

"What's going on? "Captain Yan asked a catcher.

"Dangtou, you're here. It's strange to see you today. Originally, this man owed Hou San'er money and refused to pay it back. After dragging him to report to the official, our lord was just about to go to court. Who knew that this man suddenly took out a piece of iron from his pocket and smashed the monkey to death.

Even if he smashed people to death in public, the man sat down and took over the food and drink. He didn't run away or run away. He just said that after he finished the meal, he would get into the army and join the army. go. ”

“You also bring your own food and wine? ”

“Well, what the people over there gave us are allHis brothers are young and old. "

As Yan looked over, he discovered that among the people who had gathered at the gate of the county government office to watch the excitement, there was a group of young men who were all kneeling there.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk . "

Yan Tou pushed away the crowd, took the initiative to walk up to the man, squatted down, and said:

"Brother, do you have enough wine? "

The man raised his head, looked at Yan Baotou, smiled, and said:

"That's enough. You can't walk when you're drunk. It's easy to get there from here. The country is far away. "

Yan Captou sat down cross-legged, pointed at Hou San'er who was out of breath, and said:

"Have you got a grudge? ”

“I just came back from the goods and learned that one of my brothers, my wife, was deceived by Hou San’er and bought a house and land for a hundred cents. The old woman came to her senses and cried out that she had no choice but to surrender. The well is dead.

My brother left early. When he first started to work in the early years, he used to eat buns from my mother. When I came back this time and heard about it, yes, one life is worth one. I killed Hou San'er to avenge my brother and his mother from the spring. Later, I can also go to the front line as a prisoner and follow the savages or fight with dogs. "

Hou San'er's reputation is naturally very bad. He did unscrupulous business and many people were deceived by him and their families were ruined. However, Hou San'er's backstage was the chief bookkeeper, so he has always been No one dared to touch him.

Now that Hou San'er is dead, he can be regarded as "removing harm for the people".

Yan Baotou thought of his brother named Zheng. What he said was that why Jianghu is not popular on the stage, but it still attracts many people, because some people in Jianghu sometimes do things that "dressed beasts" would not do.

"Brother, leave a name? ”

“Hey, don’t you also have to sign and draw a sign to be held in custody later? That’s all, since you want to ask, I will tell you, a certain Nan’an Ran Min.

People give him the nickname Ran Big Beard. "

"But what about the beard? ”

“Shave it in advance to avoid having to deal with lice on the way to hair delivery. "

Speaking,

Ran Min faced the group of kneeling guys outside the county government office,

said:

"Don't be alone. With a mournful face, we all joined the army together. What you voted for are civilians and miscellaneous soldiers. He started as a prisoner. As long as there is a war, he will be able to rise again in a short time. At that time, he will still lead you to kill thieves. ! "

Then,

Ran Min turned to look at the county magistrate in the high hall and said:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qingtian, so-and-so. If I don't give you face, I'll kill someone in public.

But bigIt’s time for me to come down and have a glass of wine with you. This matter will eventually spread and become a good story. Hahahaha, I’m giving you this blessing, sir. If you don’t take advantage of it, your kindness will be in vain. ah! ”

The county magistrate was still sitting there, not coming down. His face was twitching, obviously he was angry.

When Yan Captou saw this, he was a little helpless. No wonder the county magistrate was The chief bookkeeper and county magistrate below is standing alone. He doesn't even have this courage, and he doesn't want the official position in front of him.

If the guy named Zheng is here,

He ran down a long time ago and toasted three glasses in a row, then recited the punishment sentence loudly with tears in his eyes. Then he covered his face and hugged the child and cried loudly. He had to make sure that the wind was completely settled before he gave up.

Ran Min shook his head,

looked at Yan Baotou sitting in front of him,

said with emotion:

"What a pity. Although our Majesty can't help but appoint officials to serve as officials, it's a bit difficult for you, brother, to climb up as a fast-moving person. If you're not an official, it's useless to have the reputation of an official.

This is the gangster’s name in this world. Brother, do you want it? "

"Yes. ”

Yan Captou refuses anyone who comes, and wants everything.

Ran Min first took the wine bottle and took a big sip,

then took the wine bottle He handed it to Yan Baotou,

and shouted:

"Brother, let's go! ”

Captain Yan didn’t mind it either, and took a big sip of wine from the spout of the jug.

Ran Min laughed loudly,

looking outside Shouted:

“May I ask my brother’s name? "

Yan Captou pretended to be a little drunk,

loud loudly:

"Nan'an Yan Xiaoliu is the one! ”

“Okay, it’s a great pleasure to be able to recognize another brother before I’m sent to the army. Wait, I’ll accumulate military merits in front of the army and make a name for myself as a school captain.” No, we have to at least be a defender, or a general.

Hahahaha,

When the war is over, brother, I have the opportunity to come back. From now on, you will follow me to do things. What do I, Da Yanerlang, do as a spy? Kill dogs before the battle. , that is the real pleasure!

Brother Xiao Liu, wait, I will protect you from now on! ”

It is too arrogant to say that fighting in front of the battle line and risking one’s life to gain military merit is regarded as a matter of hunting for treasure. When the rivers and lakes are shallow, they can often give birth to dragon snakes. In the future, What will happen is still unclear.

Hearing this, Yan Captou smiled and said:

"What a coincidence, one of my brothers said this long ago, before he joined the army. . "

"Haha, he is bragging, brother, I am different! "

Yan Liang raised his head and let out a long sigh,

said with emotion:

"Don't tell me, I really miss my brother. Years have passed. "

"Died in battle? "

"........." Yan Xiaoliu.

Seeing that Yan was not talking, Ran Min looked serious and said:

"It's an article. Since you, man, died fighting for me, Dayan, you should be respected. Come on, Brother Yan, let’s toast your late brother with this glass of wine! "

" Hey hey hey. "Yan Xiaoliu laughed, his stomach hurt from laughing, but he still nodded, stretched out his hand to hold the same wine bottle as Ran Min,

with his mouth facing down,

sprinkling the wine On the ground.

"Go well, brother, and go on your way with peace of mind! "

......

"A sneeze! "

General Zheng, who had just been helped by his fourth mother to sit on the bed and drink chicken soup, sneezed so hard that he almost spilled the chicken soup in his hand.

"Oh, who? Thinking of me. ”
