Zhenguan Chang'an Xiaofangzheng

Chapter 318 Painted Bat

Shi Fengmang, the commander of the right-hand army guard, led a team of right-hand army guard Wei Yiwei as guards, and escorted Fan Zheng, the envoy of Guanfeng and the director of the Jingyuan of Sinong Temple, out of Chang'an.

Lei Qi and Lei Jiu blatantly guarded Fan Zheng. According to the official statement, they were motley people, also known as satins, and it was common for satins to act as defenses.

Behind Fan Zheng, there are two provincial foreign officials in crimson clothes.

No one explained to Fan Zheng the reasons for this arrangement in detail.

Go to Xianyang and pass Liquan.

Now that we have arrived in Liquan County, can we not climb Jiuyi Mountain and enter Zhaoling to burn incense to Empress Wende?

Not to mention being rude, when Empress Wende was alive, she treated Fan Zheng like a nephew, and indeed resolved Fan Zheng's difficulties several times, so burning incense was a matter of course.

Zhaoling Mausoleum was the first mausoleum in the Tang Dynasty with a mountain as its mausoleum, and Li Yuan's dedicated mausoleum was piled up with soil as a mausoleum.

The mausoleum was designed by the brothers Yan Lide and Yan Liben. They changed the previous dynasties' "sitting west to east" and "buried buried", and the overall planning imitated the condensed Chang'an City. .

The name of Zhaoling Mausoleum is named after the posthumous law "Zhaode has meritorious deeds called Zhao", which is well deserved.

The habit of showing off to Aye in Li Shimin's family was deeply rooted in his bones. Li Zhi later sent his generals to win big battles twice, both of which were captured in Zhaoling, and he was also showing off to Aye.

With Fan Zheng's official rank, he is not qualified to go to the main mausoleum, it is enough to burn incense and pay respects in the dedicated hall inside the Vermilion Bird Gate.

That's right, Suzaku Gate.

The four gates of Zhaoling Mausoleum are named according to the four images, which is also a prevailing naming rule.

Therefore, Suzaku Gate and Xuanwu Gate are really not unique to Chang'an City.

However, there is not much open space in the south of Zhaoling Mausoleum and the road is rugged, so there are more sacrifices than in the North Sima Courtyard in the Xuanwu Gate in the north. Over time, the North Sima Courtyard became an altar.
-
Traveling through Binzhou to Quail Gou, 480 miles away from Chang'an, the road is not easy, and Fan Zheng spent six days on the road.

In the place of Quailgu, the specialty is crisp pears, and there are also called bald pears, but I don’t know if the monks will feel angry when they hear this name.

Forgive Fan Zheng's ignorance, this is the first time he knows that Jingzhou also produces wax and dragon beard mats, that is, mats woven from dragon beard grass.

There is still endless loess, weeds that grow wildly, and crops seem to be weak, just like the people in Quail County.

The city gate was open, but no one came in or out. A thick layer of dust had accumulated on the stone slab, and when one stepped down, the dust danced in the fiery sunlight.

With the door closed, there is no more human voice, as if entering a ruin.

That is to say, when we arrived outside the county yamen, we saw a dying doorman, and even the people who had claimed to besiege the yamen were nowhere to be seen.

"The quail gu order is very powerful. Does this imprison all the common people in the county jail?"

Fan Zheng couldn't help talking.

Hmm, is it not normal for the Watcher to talk about things?
Menzi raised his turbid eyes, and glanced at Fan Zheng coldly: "A Ming family who only knows how to recite Amitabha Buddha should have the courage. The common people are just desperate, and they go home and stay behind closed doors, waiting to die. .”

"Anyway, if you die early and reincarnate early, maybe you will have a better life in the next life, and you won't have to stay in this ghost place again."

The tone of the whole Quailgu County can basically be set, despair, despair before dying.

Fan Zheng raised his eyebrows, Lei Qi strode towards the screen wall, took out a few pieces of charcoal, and wiped off the bat pattern on the screen wall.

Menzi yelled weakly, "It's not appropriate to do this."

After all, he didn't move a step, which is the essence of "inaction".

Inverting the bat means "being an official will benefit one party", and Fan Zheng's doing so is a direct slap in the face.

At the east end of the front gate, a drum calling for grievances was placed on the support. Lei Jiu snorted, and didn't even use the drumsticks. Two fists as big as sand bowls beat in turn, like the roar of a war drum, 330 hammers a pass.

The officials in the county government heard the sound of the drum and sat lazily in the classroom, while Manyu sat in the second hall with swollen eyes.

Not all cases are brought to the county magistrate's trial. Judicial assistants and judicial history can decide [-]% of the cases. In addition to the county lieutenant and county magistrate, it is basically impossible to reach the county magistrate's desk.

It's a joke to be an upright official and go to settle cases every day.

Besides, how many things can't be done by a big fart who is a county magistrate from the seventh rank?
I really thought everyone was that stunned young man Liu Rengui.

and many more!

Man Yu suddenly pushed the tea bowl, and rushed out with black leather shoes, without the slightest official decorum.

The folk drum is 330 hammers, and the military drum is [-] hammers. Some grassroots complaining of grievances can't even beat a hundred hammers!

Something big is about to happen!
The county magistrate, chief secretary, and county lieutenant, like a dog chasing a rabbit, followed Man Yu to the head gate.

"Hey, the little lady of the common people was killed by Shen Xiaoyu, and I don't see these dog officials in a hurry." The young Sihu Shi snorted.

The recorder Long Ya slapped him across the face: "Shut up! Don't implicate me if you want to die! Do you know how big this is?"

With tears in his eyes, Si Hushi kept silent in aggrieved manner.

Long Ya's prestige is high, and he is his elder, even if there is a grievance, so what?
Lei Jiu continued to beat the drum, and the second drum brought up the rhythm, with a faint killing spirit.

On the street, the closed doors of the people were finally opened, and the men bravely went out with poles, rakes, and kitchen knives.

No problem, every guarantor in Quailgu County sits in a row, and five households in one guarantor share a kitchen knife. Even if the common people of Quailgu County want to resist the vicious Shen Xiaoji, they must have something on hand!
Even the fight against the Turks back then was not so hopeless.

Although Wei Yiwei, the leader on the right, has only 50 people, the orderliness of the queue and the strength of the momentum ignited a glimmer of life in the eyes of the common people.

"It's the court! It's the soldiers and horses of the court!"

Finally, someone choked up and cried out.

Fan Zheng's big banner was raised, and Fu Baolang's subordinate Zhu Jie showed up to watch the wind and sieve the banner, and Man Yu immediately stood with his arms crossed.

After the three-way drum, the entire county government even Baizhi arrived. The plan: one person for Ling, one person for Cheng, one person for master book, one person for Wei;
One recorder; two sihuzuo, four historians, one accountant; two judiciary assistants, four historians; six prison officers; four inquisitors; eight Baizhi; one city magistrate, one historian, and handsome Two people; one doctor, one teaching assistant, and 20 students.

In Datang, military drums are above everything else.

There is no problem with Lei Jiu beating the army drum and having the right leader behind him endorse the letter.

"Xiaguan Manyu, etc., see the wind watcher."

The official historians crossed their hands and saluted, but their mental state was not good.

Man Yu crossed his hands again: "Please watch the wind envoy enter the Yamen."

Fan Zheng smiled: "This envoy came here at His Majesty's order, to be honest, I was reluctant. In such a big Quaigu County, there is any villain running rampant, and the government is helpless, shame on you!"

"Vegetarian meal in the corpse position, there is nothing more than this!"

"Come here, take down Quail Gou County officials, judicial assistants, judicial history, and prisons! Order: Recorder Long Ya is temporarily acting as Quail Gou Order."

The voice of injustice is endless, and it is really an official's life.

No one has ever treated officials so roughly.
