Peach and plum spring breeze and a glass of wine

When a homeboy goes on a long journey, he cannot go more than two miles for three months.

Yang Ge has long been planning to go south to find trouble with the Changfeng Gang.

But first, there was the construction work at Shangyousuo Yamen. He was worried about it and had to go there from time to time to take a look.

The last step was the personnel arrangements of the Shangyou Institute. He refused to accept all garbage and wanted to write letters to Shen Fa one by one.

Then comes the Falling Snow Technique again, and I have reached the fourth level of Yin and Yang Liuhe. It is better to be still and not to move...

Anyway, he can always find a reason to delay...

Until the beginning of September, everything was settled one by one.

Even the most difficult Falling Snow Technique, Yang Ge successfully mastered the last level of different paths to the same destination, with a strong inner energy, yin and yang, water and fire!

At this point, he was only one step away from refining his energy and returning to his true nature.

It was only at this point that he really couldn't find any reason to delay any longer, so he went to shopkeeper Liu to ask for leave.

Before he spoke, he was still hoping that Shopkeeper Liu would not give him leave, so he would just accept the situation and push the matter back.

Unexpectedly, he had just finished saying that he was going on a long trip, and before he even had time to say the reason he had made up in advance, shopkeeper Liu readily agreed.

It's okay. Don't worry, you can go about your own big things. It doesn't take long. We're watching over you at home, so don't worry!

Shopkeeper Liu first agreed to his leave, and then asked with concern: Can we get some money together? If you are poor and have a good life, you can't be too desperate. You have to prepare some spare money...

As he spoke, he opened the cash box in the counter drawer and took a look. He saw that besides copper coins, there were only three or four silver coins the size of fingernails inside. He pushed it back casually: It's closed for the evening. Come with my uncle. Go home and get money!

Yang Ge quickly waved his hand: No, no, no, I have money. I have plenty. It's enough for anything, even in the inn... How about you wait another two months? It's the peak season now. You can point to these two all year round. It’s monthly income.”

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said warmly: How can you make money? Don't worry about it. We are not old enough to write or do abacus. The season is neither hot nor cold right now. , It’s just the right time to go out. If you go faster, you can come back faster. If you are two months late, you will have to brave the wind and snow. Maybe you won’t be able to come back during the New Year...

He really treated Yang Ge as his nephew.

I also sincerely hope that a hundred years from now, Yang Ge and his family, Liu Fuyu, can help each other and go on.

Yang Ge hesitated to speak, and in the end he could only smile and said: Okay, then I will go back to my hometown tomorrow to see the old people at home, and then I will ask you to help feed Xiao Huang for two months. He will not pick up his mouth and will eat everything he is given.

Look what you said!

Shopkeeper Liu pretended to be angry: Our family owns an inn, how can we take advantage of it?

Yang Ge just smiled: There are no guests at the moment. I'll go to the martial arts studio to have a look and say hello to Brother Fu.

Shopkeeper Liu waved his hand: Go ahead and ask your rich brother to come over. Let's order some dishes for two cups tonight.

Yang Ge: The whole thing...

…

When the moon rose above the branches, Yang Ge returned to Luogu Lane again.

But in Luogu Alley, there are neither gongs nor alleys.

Instead, there is a mighty Yamen with three doors.

This new yamen is the public house of the pavilion where Xiuyiwei Shangyou is located.

The new Yamen faces south and has an axially symmetrical layout. The north-south axis is about 200 meters long and the east-west width is about 100 meters. It covers an area of ​​about 20 acres.

The gate has six doors and three bays, with a black iron plaque embossed with the words inspection and arrest hanging above it. There is also a pair of stone lions with swords at the door.

Combined with the main color of the beams and pillars and the door plaque, it gives people a sense of power, severity, and coldness.

The interior of the Yamen is built to imitate the Sanjin Courtyard.

As soon as you enter the hospital, you will see the school grounds.

The second time you enter the hospital is a public house.

The third courtyard is the dormitory and the cell.

There are more than a thousand officers and soldiers in the entire upper right office, including Yang Ge, the chief officer of Qianhu, two deputy officers of Qianhu, ten officers of Baihu, as well as the experience department, the case record library, and the general. Functional rooms such as living rooms, dining halls, medical rooms, etc. are all concentrated here.

It can be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

Of course, most of the time, there are not more than a thousand people in the upper right room, and it is very rare for even more than five hundred people to have a meal together.

This is not because the Beizhen Prefecture Secretary is looking for something to do for Shang Yousuo.

Although Shen Fa was quite critical of Yang Ge's obsession with eating and waiting to die.

But in the actual operation process, he was still very considerate of Yang Ge. Knowing that Yang Ge was a new official and was unfamiliar with the business, he assigned the cases that should have been assigned to the Shangyou Office to six other Thousand Household Offices and gave them to Yang It’s time for Ge to become familiar with the position.

But the Beizhen Prefecture Bureau did not give them tasks, and they could not stand up to the hundreds of households and general bannermen below. They went out to investigate the cases on their own after inspections based on rumors.

This is also what it should be.

After all, if we don’t investigate the case, where will the money and water come from? Where does filial piety come from?

Without money, money, or filial piety, how can we just live on a salary of more than ten taels of silver a month?

Furthermore, Yang Ge wants to live and die, but the hundreds of households and general bannermen below him all want to make progress!

In this regard, even though Yang Ge is the chief officer of the Shangyou Institute, there is still not much he can do.

He can only stick to the three bottom lines of not being motivated by money, not being beaten into tricks, and not bullying good people, and resolutely not allowing the hundreds of households and general banners under his command to touch them.

As for how to keep these three bottom lines and not allow people below to cross them, it's quite simple.

How the hundreds of households and general bannermen below investigate the case, he really cannot track in real time and ask questions every day.

But their impermanence books and closed case files will eventually be collected by him.

You can't go out every day and see everything as a blank slate, right?

Whenever Yang Ge found suspicious files and records in the Impermanence Book, he would pick them out and pass them to Fang Ke's old department of Baihu Office for verification.

He never concealed his actions of checking the files and the Impermanence Book.

It was not difficult for Fang Ke to make a choice between Yang Ge and Shen Fa, two golden friends, and a group of colleagues with whom he had no close friendship.

Five generations of Fang Ke's family have all worked in the embroidery guards. He can be said to be a clear-minded person in the embroidery guards, who are shady and winding and dark under the lamp...

Since Yang Ge officially took up his duties at the Right Office of Thousand Households, he has dealt with three hundred households and five general banners.

The most serious plot involves killing someone and seizing his wife out of lust.

Yang Ge didn't even escort anyone back to the Beizhen Prefecture. He pulled out his embroidered oxtail knife directly at the upper right station and escorted him to the city entrance monument he had erected outside the east city gate. He carried out the family law in public. The commander-in-chief settled the matter only halfway through raising the flag, and hurried off to report to the Prince of Hell.

Afterwards, Yang Ge was only complained in a letter by Shen Fa, who was very worried, and was fined half a year's salary...

Then nothing happens!

The eyes of the hundreds of households and general banners who were waiting to see the show were simply shocked!

Since then, even the two deputy Qianhus have always addressed themselves as sir when talking to Yang Ge.

Even a fool can see clearly that this Yang Ge is definitely the next Shen Fa...

This kind of evil star, whoever fights against him will die!

So far, the Hundred Households and General Banners of Shangyousuo have almost figured out the temperament of their own Thousand Households People's Congress.

He not only knows when to make a heavy move to kill someone, but also knows when to pay attention to methods and methods to avoid killing people.

You also know what kind of money will be accepted by adults in your own family, and what kind of money is best not to even look at...

If he is really unsure, he still knows how to bribe Fang Ke with good wine and meat.

Of course, when things come to Fang Ke, there is no difference from when things come to Yang Ge.

…

Yang Ge arranged the prison ox embroidered clothes and walked out of the dormitory slowly.

Fang Kehou was outside the door, holding the half-face mask to him with both hands.

Yang Ge took the half-face mask and put it on his face: Who are the people who came back?

He walked toward the atrium.

Fang Ke followed him step by step: Back to my lord, Mr. Zuo and Mr. Qin, the two deputy Qianhu masters, are back. Liu Yongguang from the second company, Zhang Kai from the fourth company, Wu Jianxing from the fifth company, Zhou Jian from the seventh company, and Yan Qian from the eighth company. , Li Wu of the Tenth Company, and six hundred households are also back.

It's quite neat!

Yang Ge glanced at him in surprise: With your company, there are more than 700 seats in the canteen today?

The numbers of one company and two companies were compiled by him for the ten hundred households under his command.

The designations of the Wei military system were only accurate to the guard level. When it came to the Qianhusuo level, the designations were very confusing. Some were named after A, B, B, D, and some were named after, left, and right.

For example, Yang Ge's Shangyou Qianhu Institute is named after front, back, left, right, middle. The accurate full name of Shangyou Institute should be Xiuyiwei North Town Fusi You Qianhu Institute.

The word Shang in front of Shangyousuo comes from the fact that Xiuyiwei is a personal soldier of the emperor, so it was specially added to distinguish it. It means the superior's right Qianhusuo and the emperor's right Qianhusuo. .

At the level of Baihu Station, the numbers are no longer just confusing, but no one at all!

If there is a Baihusuo with an area under its jurisdiction, the Baihusuo will be named after the area under its jurisdiction, such as the previous Xiuyiwei Shangyousuo Road Pavilion Baihusuo.

If a Baihu Office has no jurisdiction, the Baihu Office will be directly named after the surname of the Baihu Office. For example, the Baihu Office led by Fang Ke can be called Fangguan Baihu Office.

Hundreds of households are like this, and the general flag and small flag levels below are naturally even more messy!

The generals and commanders of the Wei Dynasty have long been accustomed to this kind of military system. They don't find it so confusing, and they have no idea of ​​​​improving it.

Yang Ge was so uncomfortable.

In the past, when he was the commander-in-chief and the pilot of a hundred households, there were only a few people there and they were familiar with each other, so he could barely turn a corner.

Now that he is working in a thousand households and has thousands of people under his command, his mind is often confused about this, and he often confuses the names of people and the names of teams.

Several times I just wanted to call one hundred households, but in the end I summoned the entire hundred households with more than a hundred people...

After several slips of the tongue, he angrily renamed the ten 100-household offices under his command.

Hundreds of households are called companies, from one company to ten companies.

The general flag is called platoon, and there are two platoons in a row.

The small flags are called classes, and there are five classes in a row.

Regardless of whether the number of people is right, or whether the modern military system can adapt to cold weapon battle formations...

Anyway, Yang Ge felt comfortable.

When I look at the thousands of people under my command, they are no longer a dark and chaotic mass.

It's as if there is a form in the eyes, and you can tell at a glance how many companies and rows there are.

As for the hundreds of households and general bannermen in Shangyousuo... Of course they are not comfortable!

At first, they had discussed privately, wondering whether Yang Ge did this to weaken their prestige among the warriors under his command so that they could be replaced at any time.

But now we are not in troubled times, and Xiuyiwei is famous for his orderly hierarchy and strict family rules. Can their little arms still twist Yang Ge's thigh?

As time passed, they gradually got used to the set of numbers decided by Yang Ge, and suddenly found...it smelled really good!

Fang Ke shook his head: My lord, I looked at it in the dining hall during feeding time. There should be less than five hundred brothers. Maybe a few hundred households came back first after being called, and some of my brothers are still out there continuing to investigate the case.

Five hundred people?

Yang Ge thought for a while and replied: That's enough... record an absence for the three hundred households who did not come back for the meeting, and include it in the year-end assessment!

Fang Ke:......

What about the promise of 'depending on the progress of the case, we will return home to discuss matters as much as possible'?

Be careful!

Yang Ge, who was striding ahead, suddenly turned his head: What are you muttering about?

Fang Ke was excited: I'm not muttering about anything!

Yang Ge looked at him with a half-smile.

Fang Ke greeted him with a numb smile.

Yang Ge turned around and asked casually: Have the ships been arranged?

Fang Ke quickly said: My lord, we have made arrangements. It is the flood season now. Let's go down the river and reach Yangzhou in less than ten days.

Yang Ge: What about the return trip?

Fang Ke: Sir, the return journey will be a little slower, but it will take more than half a month to get back to Luting.

very good!

While talking, the two of them had already passed through the corridor and arrived at the lobby on the central axis.

Yang Ge pressed the golden oxtail knife and stepped into the lobby. The eight people who had been waiting for a long time stood up and saluted with fists in their hands, saying Sir.

Yang Ge stretched out his hand and pressed it softly: For my family, there is no need for false courtesy!

He strode to the hall, picked up the charcoal pens prepared in the hall, and wrote three slanted characters Changfeng Gang on the rice paper posted in the hall.

He turned around and threw down the charcoal: This is the purpose of calling everyone back this time!

Before the eight people in the hall could react, he said in a flurry of words: The transit documents, ships, rations, and ordnance are all ready!

This time I go south, I need four hundred strong men and five hundred men to accompany me.

Master Zuo and Master Qin, both are old men in the company and are more familiar with the regulations of the company than I am. I need one of them to sit at home for me, and one of them to go down to Jiangzuo with me.

After I finish speaking, who wants to go to Jiangzuo with us, and who wants to stay at home in Zhen?

After his words fell, the eyes of the eight people in the hall turned green.

Hearing the sound of Run, the eight people in the hall stood up together, clasped their fists and cupped their hands and said: I am a lowly official (low official), and I would like to be driven by your Excellency!

Jiangzuo Changfeng Gang?

That is a well-known... fat sheep!

Since it is a fat sheep, why has no one touched it before?

It’s not because of the constraints of the place and the court!

Now that Yang Ge is willing to take the lead, he will naturally shoulder the biggest thunder!

You go take the blame and reap the benefits of our big job...

Who doesn't want to go?

Even if we take 10,000 steps back, we still can't defeat the Changfeng Gang.

Changfeng can't help Da Xie, and he certainly can't send them away!

Whether it succeeds or not, there will be a big job with a lot of money...

Who doesn't want to go?

This is going to be difficult...

Yang Ge pondered in embarrassment for a few breaths, and finally clapped his hands as if in surprise, waving to Fang Ke who was standing aside: Bring me some paper and pens, sirs!

Fang Ke was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out paper and pens and distributed them to the two deputy Qianhu and six deputy 100 households.

The eight people looked at Yang Ge in confusion.

Yang Ge spread his hands and said helplessly: I also want to go to the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire with you!

But it's impossible not to leave someone at home to take charge.

But now everyone wants to go...

It's not fair to let anyone go or stay!

In this case, I can only ask you to write down the reasons why I must take you south!

It can be a strategy book for punishing the Changfeng Gang and eradicating evil.

It can also be a love letter for everyone to share weal and woe and share joys and sorrows.

You can write anything you think will be useful to us in wiping out the Changfeng Gang.

I will decide who will go to Jiangzuo together and who will stay at home based on the documents written by everyone.

It's getting late, everyone is pretty sleepy...just a quarter of an hour!

In a quarter of an hour, I will collect the papers and announce who will follow me south to Jiangzuo and who will stay home in the town!

The eight people in the hall looked at Yang Ge dumbfounded.

Those pairs of surprised eyes seemed to say: ‘Can you still play like this? ’

Yang Ge smiled faintly and said softly: You have to count the time when you are in a daze!

The eight people in the hall woke up from a dream and immediately picked up their pens and wrote furiously.
