My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

"Ten miles of Pinghu is full of frost, and every inch of blue silk is worried about the new year. Looking at the moon to protect each other, I only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals." Standing outside the door of Yuxiao Tower, Li Yin gently read this verse, feeling far away in his heart. Three years passed away in a hurry, and the white figure by the Qujiang Pool reappeared in his mind again. For a while, his heart was full of mixed feelings, "Luo Xiaoyi?" He whispered, this There is no second person in the world who knows this poem except her.

Seeing Li Yin standing there in a daze, Wu Wei said, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"After you return to Yizhou, you will inform the internal guard to check the details of this restaurant!" Li Yin said.

Wu Wei took a look at Yuxiaolou, with a puzzled expression on his face, he couldn't figure out why Li Yin suddenly became interested in Yuxiaolou, but he still said: "Yes, Your Highness!"

Glancing at the poem on the side of the door again, Li Yin frowned and entered the restaurant. The reason why he asked the inner guard to investigate this matter and not let Su Morer intervene was because Su Morer had always held Luo Xiaoyi deeply. Especially after Luo Xiaoyi framed Li Yin, if Su Morer was allowed to intervene, I am afraid that when he saw Luo Xiaoyi again, what he would see would be just a cold corpse.

After entering the restaurant, Li Yin sat down in a corner of the restaurant under Wuwei's arrangement, and the other guards also found a seat to sit down. After a while, hot buns were brought up, and Li Yin picked up one and took a bite. , the taste of oil and salt is full, and it is 80% similar to Yizhou buns. It seems that the chefs here have indeed been trained in Yizhou.

Li Yan was full after eating a few buns, and drank a bowl of soup. Seeing the shop waiter passing by the table, he asked, "Xiao Er, your chef is from Yizhou?"

"Guest officer, is this your first time eating here? You are right. The chefs and ingredients here are all brought from Yizhou. Who doesn't know that Yizhou's food is famous all over the world? In order to spend money to invite this cook, our shopkeeper has spent a lot of money, although the taste of the food may not be as good as Yizhou, but it is not far from it." The shop waiter did not hide it, the person in front of him looked like a wealthy family, He also intends to promote Yuxiao Tower.

Li Yan nodded, pretending to be surprised and said: "Oh? Your shopkeeper is very smart. I don't know where your shopkeeper is from. Have you ever stayed in Yizhou?"

The shop waiter shook his head. He nuzzled Li Yin's left side with his mouth, and Li Yin turned his head to look, and there was a fat middle-aged man standing behind the counter. The waiter said at this time: "He is our shopkeeper, and we dare not ask about specific matters. It’s just that he only belongs to a chamber of commerce.”

Li Yin was thoughtful, and he motioned to Wu Wei, Wu Wei immediately took out a dozen copper coins and put them in Li Yin's hands, and Li Yin put the money in front of the shop waiter. Said: "Thank you, little brother."

The clerk in the shop smiled happily, turned around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he quickly packed the copper coins. Said; "Thank you, guest officer."

Seeing the happy look of the waiter in the shop, Li Yin took the opportunity to ask: "By the way, what is the origin of that domineering Marquis Wu on your pier?"

Hearing this, the waiter in the shop immediately changed his face. He whispered: "This is the first time you come here, guest officer, you may not know it. In a word, don't provoke him. Unless you don't plan to stop here in the future."

Li Yin disagreed and said: "Is it so serious? Now the world is peaceful and the sage is wise. This bully has no law. You just need to report it to the government. Could it be that the government still can't stop him?"

The waiter's voice was lowered, "Guest officer, I'll tell you the truth for the sake of the bounty, the business on this pier is not as simple as you think, and he is easy to deal with alone. But the backing of this bully is not small, it is He Ming, the county magistrate of Jiangling County, this bully is called Zhou Rang, this week Rang is the son-in-law of the county magistrate He Ming, otherwise why would he be wearing Marquis Wu's clothes and running across the Jiangling pier!"

"So that's the case, it's really a family of officials and bandits, so no one cares about it?" Li Yin said.

"Hey, guest officer, that's why you don't understand. The emperor is in the north, and Jiangling is in the south. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Those officials in the north would like to be officials here, even the great general Li Jing. Didn’t they conquer this place in the end? Once the army left, the local nobles took control of this place.” The waiter sighed endlessly, “so the merchants here understand this truth, and no one wants to find it difficult to go against the county magistrate of Jiangling. After all, it's a bit disrespectful to say it, here He Ming is the real emperor."

Li Yin became angrier the more he listened, "Could it be that no one reported it to the court?"

"Yes, there is, but it's useless. This He Ming is protected by someone in the court..." Before the waiter could finish speaking, a customer at the next table called him to pick up some food, and he turned around and left.

Wu Wei saw that Li Yin was unhappy, so he said: "Your Highness, this is a very normal thing. Even we in Yizhou cannot avoid this. Who knows what the officials below are doing?"

Li Yin nodded, "Yes, it is indeed difficult to manage a territory as large as the Tang Dynasty, with such a sparse population and inconvenient transportation, but the situation here has also given me some inspiration. Now Yizhou is developing. Soon, but the problem of official administration cannot be ignored. After returning, we must work **** this place. These officials are the parents of the local officials. If one of them dies, the whole place will die. It will be rotten, and at that time, it will be of no use for Yizhou to develop well."

"Your Highness said so!" Wu Wei said.

After everyone ate, Wu Wei went to pay the bill. As soon as he left, he saw many people rushing towards the pier. Wu Wei stopped a businessman and asked, "What happened?"

"Hey, I heard that someone **** off Zhou Rang. Now Zhou Rang has surrounded the pier with hundreds of Jiangling soldiers. Hey, we can't leave by boat." The businessman said with a sigh.

The businessman's words made Li Yin's face turn ugly in an instant. It turned out that Zhou Rang was not afraid, but went to call for reinforcements.

Wu Wei's eyes were fierce when he heard the words, and said: "His Royal Highness, you wait here for a while, it will not be too late for me to kill them all before leaving."

In order to protect Li Yin, there were more than 300 guards who followed Li Yin this time. They were divided into six yachts.

"Let's go and have a look together. This Jiangling is the transit point for merchants from the Tang Dynasty to Nanhe Port. Such chaos here is also very detrimental to Yizhou. Since the king has intervened in this matter, we must take care of it to the end, no matter what he is. .” After Li Yin said that, he walked to the pier first.

Wu Wei followed closely. He knew that as long as Li Yin made a decision, he could not persuade him to come back. He could only ask the guards to protect Li Yin.

At the Jiangling Wharf, more than 400 soldiers in worn-out armor were confronting the guards on the yacht. Zhou Rang had a hint of sternness in his eyes. A good man never suffers from boredom, so he chose to summon his troops to come back to take revenge, and even demanded revenge from him. His father-in-law county magistrate mentioned the yachts on the pier, and this novel thing immediately aroused He Ming's interest. He had been a county magistrate in Jiangling for ten years, and he was already surprised by the rare treasures presented by various businessmen. He had never seen such a thing before. He followed Zhou Rang to the pier, and he saw the six yachts at a glance. Although he didn't understand what it was, he knew it was a good thing.

However, these six yachts are obviously not so easy to get. There are a large number of guards guarding the yachts. At this time, they are pointing at them with stick-like objects, preventing them from getting any closer.

"Bold and lunatic, you dare to cause trouble at Jiangling Wharf, and you should surrender quickly, otherwise I will let the archers shoot arrows immediately, and kill all of you." He Ming shouted at the guards of the Shu Palace, his eyes were wide open. He has been greedily staring at the yachts on the river.

"Father-in-law, what are you talking about with them? Just kill them. These things are said to run very fast on the river. They are definitely good things. You can't miss them!" Zhou Rang continued to encourage He Ming. This father-in-law knows it very well, and he is definitely the one who plucks the goose's hair. Now that such a magical thing is in front of him, can he not be greedy?

He Ming's heart was about to move, but the remaining sliver of clarity made him feel that something was wrong. The people who can own these things must have unusual backgrounds. It doesn't matter if they are business travelers, but if it is an official of the court, it will be difficult. "Are you sure he's just a business traveler?" He Ming asked again.

"My son-in-law swears, he is definitely a business traveler!" For a bully like Zhou Rang, how can he be honest? As long as he can achieve his goal, it doesn't matter what means, of course he can deceive his father-in-law.

Nodded, He Ming was about to speak, when a voice came, "Who is so bold, dare to surround the king of Shu's car!", but it was Wu Wei who broke through the crowd and came in.

"King of Shu!"

"It's actually the king of Shu..."

"No wonder, besides the king of Shu, who else can possess these magical things?"

"He Ming is finally going to be unlucky..."

"..."

Wuwei's words made the merchants whisper to each other, and everyone showed gloating expressions, which shows their hatred for He Ming and Zhou Rang.

He Ming's face changed in an instant, and then he saw a young man in fine clothes walking over accompanied by a charming maid, he said suspiciously: "How could the King of Shu come to Jiangling when he was far away in Yizhou? Who are you, pretending to be the King of Shu?" But capital punishment."

"Open your dog eyes and see what this is!" Wu Wei took out the fish charm and placed it in front of He Ming's eyes.

"King of Shu!" He Ming's face turned green in an instant, he had seen this fish charm belonging to the prince before, his legs became limp from fright, and he sat down on the ground.

Zhou Rang was also stunned, but he quickly came back to his senses and quietly backed away, preparing to run away. (To be continued..)
