With Jiedi as his guide, Liu Ziji traveled another few dozen miles before reaching the vicinity of Jiangling City.

The current Jiangling City, nominally speaking, is actually the territory of the Liang Kingdom.

The reason why it is said to be Liang State's territory is actually because Jin State has not regained the Jingnan land.

Jingnan Jiedu envoy Gao Jixing was originally a domestic slave of Zhu Yourang, Zhu Wen's adopted son. Later, after being transformed into Jingnan Jiedu envoy, he bowed his head to Zhu Wen of Liang State.

Because Liang Guo was busy with the war in the north, he had no time to take care of the land of Jingnan, so this land of Jingnan could be regarded as a separatist force in the true sense that the sky was high and the emperor was far away.

Whether it was Zhu Wen, or Zhu Youzhen who came to power hastily later, they all adopted a policy of tolerance towards Gao Jixing.

This led to the fact that even though Jingnan and Liang Guo had the names of monarchs and ministers, they did not have the real status of monarchs and ministers.

Gao Jixing is a cunning person, and he is also a person who does not stalk the eagle when he sees the rabbit.

He didn't even pay tribute to Liang Guo for five or six years.

It was not until after Zhu Youzhen hastily succeeded to the throne that Gao Jixing was conferred the title of King of Bohai and bestowed with a crown and sword, Gao Jixing resumed his worship to Liang Guo.

However, before Gao Jixing had time to make the confession, Zhu Youzhen just burped.

In addition, Gao Jixing is also a person who judges the situation.

After Jin State destroyed Liang State, Gao Jixing changed his name immediately.

His original name was Gao Jichang.

Because the word "Chang" in his name was the same as the "Chang" in Li Keyong's father Li Guochang, Gao Jixing changed his name from "Jichang" to "Jixing".

But even so, he did not submit to Jin.

Because the state of Jin hasn't given him any hints or benefits yet.

What's more, Jin Wang Li Keyong's father and son died tragically one after another, and the state of Jin was already in turmoil.

The north was in such a mess, Gao Jixing naturally became rampant.

Not to mention extravagance and lust, they even started to openly hunt in the crop fields.

When Liu Ziji and Jiedi's convoy arrived ten miles outside Jiangling City, they happened to run into Gao Jixing's team.

They rode on horseback along the way, regardless of whether there were crops in the land they passed.

Seeing this scene, Little Tea, that is, Chai Rong, suddenly became angry.

But in the end he was held back by Jiedi.

"Little Tea, are you dying? This is Jiangling!"

"So what?" Chai Rong's anger remained undiminished, "There are so many people in this world who are hungry, yet he wastes food like this!"

Jie said in a deep voice, "Even if the food is wasted, so what? That's Jingnan Jiedushi! You don't want to live anymore, kid?"

"What about Jingnan Jiedushi?"

Chai Rong said angrily: "It's just a guy who doesn't deserve his virtue!"

As he spoke, he gradually calmed down.

After a long time, he sighed, "In an unlucky year, you will suffer from starvation, and in a good year, you will suffer from low grain prices. If you are rich and bad, you will be sick, but the farmer is like this!"

Liu Ziji looked at Chai Rong with some surprise, "You're not old, so you can see clearly? Since ancient times, no matter whether the world is in order or in trouble, the peasants suffer the most."

Chai Rong looked at Liu Ziji in surprise, "Engong also thinks so?"

Liu Ziji shook his head, and said: "It's not what I think, it's the fact. Farmers who are ferocious at the age of year die from persecution, and those who are rich at the age of year are hurt by the cheapness of grain. Even a catty of grain is not as expensive as a catty of water. This is all possible. things."

Hearing this, Chai Rong was greatly surprised.

He had never heard of such a thing.

After being dazed for a moment, he suddenly said: "But I heard that the peasant family is the largest gang in the world..."

"The first big gang is useless. How many of the peasants in the first big gang are real farmers?"

While chatting, Liu Ziji followed the convoy into Jiangling City.

After entering the city, Jie Tuo cupped his fists at Liu Ziji and Yan Lingji.

"Two priests, let's go to trade the goods first, and help the priest find a few merchants who are going to the Tianshi Mansion to see if they can help the priest lead the way."

After finishing speaking, Jie Tuo looked at Chai Rong again, "Little Tea, treat the two priests well and don't begrudge the money."

Chai Rong nodded, then clasped his fists at Liu Ziji and said, "You two benefactors, I am very familiar with this Jiangling City, why don't you let me be your master, how about asking the two benefactors to taste the delicacies of this Jiangling City?"

Anyway, he had to wait for Jiedi to finish his work before looking for a guide, so Liu Ziji simply followed Chai Rong to a restaurant.

But before they stepped into the restaurant, suddenly a few young girls ran out screaming, clutching their chests.

"Indecent!"

Then, another figure flew out from the restaurant.

Liu Ziji pulled Yan Lingji to the side, and the figure flew to the ground.

"Oh! I'm a celestial master, you ordinary people, how dare you treat me like this!"

The figure wailed, and immediately patted its buttocks and got up.

This person turned out to be a Taoist priest.

It's just a Taoist priest with ragged clothes, pale hair, dirty body, and a very crazy expression.

Dressed like this, this person doesn't look like a Taoist priest, but like an old beggar.

But the Tai Chi pattern on his Taoist robe can prove his identity as a Taoist priest.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant walked up to the door, put his waist down and said, "Where did you come from, crazy Taoist priest, I poured you two ounces of wine a few days ago in a soft heart, and you still offended Jinchi today! You come to eat and drink for nothing every day!" Not to mention, you are still trying to touch the girls and boys in our shop! You are so nonsense, can we still do business?"

Facing the shopkeeper's angry shout, the crazy old man smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, old man, I come to your place for dinner to save face! My old man is hard to find! Do you know that you are about to Is there a bloody disaster? Look at your forehead is black!"

Hearing the crazy words of the crazy old man, the shopkeeper immediately glared.

"Wow! You crazy Taoist still dare to curse me!"

After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Come here, teach him a lesson! Let him see who is suffering from blood!"

As soon as the shopkeeper waved his hand, several shop waiters behind him rushed towards the crazy old Taoist, punching and kicking the Taoist priest.

However, as soon as these Xiao Er's fists and feet went down, they felt that they had hit an air wall.

Immediately after a burst of energy, the four or five shop waiters were immediately blown out.

Several people staggered and fell to the ground, wailing everywhere.

Seeing this, the crazy old man clapped his hands, showing a smug smile, having a great time playing.

"Just because of you guys, you still want to touch the old Taoist? Tell you, the old Taoist, I am a celestial master! If you don't care about your status as a celestial master, you will all have to lie down for ten days and half a month now!"

Seeing this, the shopkeeper immediately became furious.

He rolled up his sleeves, and rushed towards Mad Old Daoist.

However, the crazy old man just turned sideways, and then tripped with his legs, the shopkeeper fell to the ground, and even knocked out his front teeth.

Afterwards, the crazy old man stuck out his tongue like a child, and gloatingly said to the shopkeeper like an old urchin: "I told you earlier that your seal is black and there will be a bloody disaster. You still don't believe it, you deserve it! Bah! "

Seeing this scene, Chai Rong who was next to him frowned, obviously very dissatisfied with the crazy old man's behavior.

"Where are you crazy and old! How dare you hurt people without paying for food?"

Hearing this, the crazy old man followed the sound, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Chai Rong standing at the door.

His eyes lit up, and his figure jumped to Chai Rong's side in an instant.

As soon as the crazy old man came up, he started to touch Chai Rong, and at the same time asked excitedly: "Are you my son?"
