Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

It was just dawn when Jia Cong arrived at Ziyang. He rushed to the city gate and saw that the city gate was closed. He raised his head and shouted: "Open the door!"

"The superior officer has an order. In order to prevent thieves, bandits and spies, no one is allowed to enter the city except to transport grain, grass and vegetables!" shouted the defenders on the city.

"You bastard! Ask the Imperial Guard to come see me!" Jia Cong said angrily.

"Fuck you! Who are you? You can just meet the emperor's soldiers? Get out! If you don't get out, the archers are ready!" The city gate guard stuck his head out and shouted.

The sound of bows and arrows was heard, and dozens of arrows were aimed at Jia Cong.

damn it! Jia Cong hurriedly raised his hands and shouted: "Wait a minute, I have proof, I am not a thief."

The team was shouting: "What evidence?"

Jia Cong took out his jade medal of the Commander of the Imperial Guard and held it high.

"What is it?" The defenders couldn't see clearly and waved their hands to let someone put down a small hanging basket.

Jia Cong went over and put the jade plaque in the basket.

The two sergeants pulled the basket up, their eyes lit up, and they hurriedly handed it to the captain, saying: "Hey, brother, it's a good thing, it's worth a lot of money."

Captain took the jade plaque and looked at it over and over with his eyes wide open, one big and one small. He recognized the beautiful jade, but he didn't know the characters and didn't know what was engraved on it.

"Brother, it seems that this kid wants to use this thing to attack you. How about we take it away from him and let him get out." A sergeant came over and whispered.

The team leader snorted coldly: "It's a fucking dream that the garrison master personally ordered me to guard the city gate because he thinks that I am serious about work, not fond of money, and not interested in selfish interests. Can you bribe me with this stubbornness? It's a joke. ”

Because he raised his hand and threw the jade token back to Jia Cong, his eyes widened and he shouted: "Get out of here, mother, I won't do this! Even if you move a mountain of gold, you won't even think about entering the city today. Get out!"

Jia Cong said in astonishment: "Are you illiterate?"

"Brother, he dares to laugh at you." The sergeants next to him said, holding back their laughter. Some of the soldiers were literate.

When Team Leader heard this, he became angry. This bastard dared to be so arrogant. He cursed, "You don't care whether I can read or not. It's enough for me to know how to read!"

Jia Cong was so angry that he laughed and shouted: "The royal guards in the city, get out of here!"

The captain was yelling: "You little bastard, if you dare to yell again, I will shoot you."

Xu Yao, a member of the Jinyiwei family who was sleeping in the gate tower next to him, was awakened by the shouting and cursing outside and asked, "What's the noise?"

Several captains sleeping outside said: "It seems that there is a madman who wants to enter the city and is clamoring to see the Jin Yiwei. That's nonsense."

Xu Yao had already received the secret instructions of emptiness and knew that an important person would come. He jumped up in a hurry and ran to the city wall to take a look. He was almost scared out of his mind.

But I saw a young man below, although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, but he had a good appearance, his eyes were shining like cold lightning flickering in the clouds, his face was covered with frost, and his demeanor was impressive. Who could he be if he wasn't his own commander?

Xu Yao swallowed his saliva, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and took a closer look, Damn, what a commander!

Snapped! When Du Zheng was about to scold him, he slapped him aside and shouted: "Hurry up and open the city!" After saying that, he ran down the city, and when he passed by Du Zheng, he kicked him twice.

The team was screaming and being kicked to the ground, and for some reason they were suddenly beaten.

"What are you waiting for? Open the city quickly! Bastard!" Seeing that the soldiers in the city gate were not moving, Xu Yao beat and scolded him and ordered several captains to open the door.

When Jia Cong saw that the door was finally open, he urged his horse to go in. He saw a hundred families running over to take their horses.

"Sir, thank you for your hard work. I just went to patrol the city. I came a step late and let that bastard offend you. I will deal with him severely when I turn around." Xu Yao nodded carefully and bowed.

Jia Cong glanced at him and said, "This man has done his duty well and will be rewarded."

"Yes, yes, reward, reward. Your Majesty is as humble as a grain of salt, and the ancient reputation will not be able to match it."

"Where are Emptiness and Jiehui now?"

"My lord, the two thousand households are stationed in the city's 100-household residence, waiting for your lord's order." Xu Yaodao.

"Well, take me there."

"Yes, sir, please follow me."

Xu Yao hurriedly led several school captains on horseback to escort Jia Cong to the Yanzhou Baihu Yamen.

Generally speaking, Jinyiwei has a thousand-household office in each province or important state capital, and generally a hundred-household office is set up in the state capital.

After Jia Cong's reforms, in addition to the previous layout, each province or important state capital was assigned a 100-household supervision office, and a 1000-household supervision office was established in special and important areas.

Passing by an inn, a few chefs were making various breakfasts in front of the street. The steam was steaming and the fragrance was permeating, like many hooks, attracting many diners to sit in the hall.

Jia Cong suddenly felt empty in his belly and hungry. He secretly thought that there was going to be a big battle today, so he had to sacrifice the five internal organs temple first.

Seeing him reining in his horse slightly, Xu Yao looked towards the roadside and said hurriedly: "Sir, this breakfast restaurant is quite famous. How about you use some first?"

Jia Cong nodded and dismounted.

Xu Yao hurriedly led people into the store, ran to a big table in the middle, knocked on it, pointed with his thumb, and made a walking motion.

Several diners were shocked when they saw it was Jin Yiwei. They hurriedly paid their bills and left, regardless of whether they finished eating. In the packed lobby, a table suddenly became vacant.

The waiter hurriedly came over to clear away the dishes, and the shopkeeper ran over to greet him attentively.

"Masters, what are you using? The shop's oil spinels, chief buns, sesame pancakes, roasted meats, and glutinous rice soup are the delicacies of Yanzhou Prefecture." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Xu Yao's eyes widened and he said: "What are you asking? Just bring what you are good at and be quick!"

"Yes, yes, my dear, this is the arrangement. The military masters are sitting here, waiter, come and pour the tea." The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.

"Sit over here." Xu Yao dismissed him with a wave of his hand and served Jia Cong over to sit down. Jia Cong frowned slightly. Although he couldn't stand their domineering style, he didn't take it to heart. If the Jin Yiwei were not as good as wolves and tigers, would they still be called Jin Yiwei?

"You go out and wait." Jia Cong said calmly.

"Yes, yes, please take it easy. I'll wait for you when I go out."

Xu Yao hurriedly led a few captains out, stopped at the door, and immediately stopped strangers from entering. The diners were scared away, and the shopkeeper secretly complained that the business this morning was down.

In a moment, all kinds of delicacies were placed on the table. Jia Cong picked up a spinach and took a bite. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma of green onions filled his mouth. He took a sip of the hot glutinous rice soup (meat porridge) and felt the sensation in his chest and abdomen. There was a warmth, and the fatigue of traveling all night suddenly dissipated a bit.

Jia Cong secretly praised it, picked up another piece of meat and burned it. Just as he was about to take his mouth, he saw a young man sitting opposite him with a familiar look.

"This brother has a great appetite! But is he a good guy from out of town?" The young man raised his hands and said with a smile.

"Why do you see that?" Jia Cong glanced at him and saw that he was dressed in luxurious clothes and had extraordinary equipment. He was obviously a son of a famous family.

The young master smiled and said, "I didn't know it just now, but now I can tell by listening to your accent."

Jia Cong laughed, ignored him, and continued to eat by himself.

"As the saying goes, you can only live up to good wine, delicious food and beautiful women. You can't finish such a large table of delicious food. Rather than squandering everything, it's better for me to give it a try."

The young master smiled secretly in his heart. He was lucky today and could save a breakfast. He said this without any politeness, picked up the porridge, took the officer's steamed buns and started chewing.

Jia Cong was stunned and secretly thought that this man's shamelessness was similar to that of the two fat men. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth and he allowed him to eat and drink.

The two of them ate for a long time and finished half the table of breakfast before they stopped using their chopsticks.

"Waiter, take the leftovers to my room."

The young master chuckled, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry, brother, I'm full, but my mother and the girls haven't eaten yet. Our family is poor, so we can only laugh at each other."

Jia Cong laughed, he was a wonderful man, waved his hand and said, "It's up to you."

The young master cupped his hands and said, "Having a meal with my brother today is truly a pleasure in my life. One day, my brother will come to my house, and my younger brother, Wang Xinghe, will sweep the couch to treat me. I will live up to the feelings between you and me today."

"Brother Xinghe, where is the fairyland and where is your mansion located?" Jia Cong said with a smile.

"The biggest house in Qufu is my home, hehe."

Jia Cong was stunned, looked him up and down, and said: "The largest mansion in Qufu is naturally Yan Shenggong's Mansion, Your Excellency..."

"To be honest, my father is the fourth son of a contemporary father-in-law. He prefers to avoid social media and enjoy making friends."

"I'm sorry, but why should I be named Wang?"

"Because my father said that I don't deserve the surname Kong. I have no choice but to give my surname Wang. Tomorrow my surname is Zhang. I haven't asked my brother for his name yet." Kong Xinghe said with a smile.

Jia Cong pointed at him and laughed, saying: "Jia Cong."

Kong Xinghe was startled, glanced at the few guards standing at the door, and hurriedly whispered: "I have the eyes to see Mount Tai, and I have offended many people. Don't blame me, General."

Jia Cong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Since you and I eat at the same table, we naturally treat each other as friends, nothing else."

"Yes, yes, my brother is heroic and heroic. He is indeed a great man of his generation. I have admired him for a long time." Kong Xinghe said with cupped hands.

"Brother Xinghe is unconventional, unrestrained and unrestrained. I am also heartbroken." Jia Cong said with a smile.

"Since you and I cherish each other and have the same spirit, how about cutting off the chicken heads and burning yellow paper to become brothers of the opposite sex?" Kong Xinghe said.

Jia Cong chuckled and raised his middle finger.

Kong Xinghe smiled coquettishly and said: "Brother is very noble, this is my younger brother Meng Lang. We will discuss this matter another day.

"Brother Xinghe is here to visit relatives and friends, or does he have other important matters?" Jia Cong asked casually.

"To be honest, I came here to avoid disaster. The city in Yanzhou is high and the walls are thick. I think it is safer than Qufu." Kong Xinghe said in a low voice.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Brother, I have foresight. At this moment, Qufu has been besieged by bandits and is in danger."

Kong Xinghe patted his chest, let out a breath, and said, "Fortunately, I escaped by luck."

"Brother doesn't seem to be worried about his family," Jia Cong said.

Kong Xinghe smiled and said: "I am a commoner. It is just a temporary residence, but it is not my home."

"Aren't you worried about the elders in the family?"

"My younger brother has already advised me. My father said that they eat more salt than I eat rice. I think I have a clever plan to defeat the enemy. My younger brother is too stupid to understand the mysteries of my elders, so I only know how to use a superficial move to get the best plan." Kong Xinghe said. .

Jia Cong laughed loudly, stood up and patted his shoulder, saying: "Sure enough, heroes don't ask where they come from."

Passing by the shopkeeper, Jia Cong pointed at Kong Xinghe and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, this young man is a good friend of mine. He pays the bill."

"Yes, sir, please go slowly." The shopkeeper nodded with a smile.

Kong Xinghe waved to call someone, but Jia Cong ignored him and had already mounted his horse. Hey, this bastard is so shameless. He can't even afford breakfast, so why should he be a general?

"Shopkeeper, as you saw, I didn't order the food." Kong Xinghe wanted to cheat.

"Sir, the profit in this shop is small and we don't owe you credit." The shopkeeper glanced at Kong Xinghe lightly, "You bastard, you eat and pay. If you don't pay, who will pay?"

"You... bastard, you are blind. No need to look for it." Kong Xinghe took out a silver lock from his wallet and threw it on the table.

Damn it, I’ve been eating for nothing my whole life, and now I’m letting people eat my king’s meal. (End of chapter)
