Chapter 9 Sun Jie Enters Xi'an Mansion

The steward was riding in a donkey cart, which had only a simple shed, without even a front door and a tailgate.

Simple is a bit simple, but it is also the car of the prince's family.

A pennant with the word "Qin" was inserted on the roof to show his identity.

When a car like this is on the road, most people have to give way.

Sun Jie sat on the shaft of the car, while Chen Hu and the others walked on both sides of the car.

This place is not far from Xi'an Mansion. With the donkey cart, the speed will be faster than before, so you don't have to worry about getting in.

"Brother Sun, tell me your birthplace, birth date and parents' names, and I will fill in your information on my road guide!"

Zhou Da's voice came from the donkey cart.

Sun Jie said: "The name is Sun Jie. As for the place of origin, you can fill in Fuping, Shaanxi. I can't remember the date of birth or something."

Zhou Da in the donkey cart was holding a wooden sign in one hand and a writing brush in the other, and looked at Sun Jie suspiciously, "I can't even remember the date of birth? Judging from your tone, you probably aren't from Fuping, right?" "

It is difficult to move without an ID card in modern times, and it is also difficult to move without a guide in the Ming Dynasty.

The strict household registration system, even if you make up an identity, if someone wants to find out, they can still check you out.

"Hey, don't worry about it, that's all it is!"

Zhou Da didn't bother to worry about these things, and he would investigate carefully when he had enough time in the future.

While talking, Zhou Da filled in Sun Jie's identity information on his road guide.

This is a wooden sign the size of an adult's palm. It has been used for a long time and is covered with pulp.

Zhou Da's handwriting is very good, I don't know how many times better than those so-called masters in later generations.

"As well as your followers, please tell me their names!" Zhou Da asked again.

Sun Jie uttered the names of Chen Hu and the others. As for the horoscope of birthplace and date of birth, they were all nonsense.

Zhou Da didn't pursue these minutiae matters, after writing the road guide, he put it on his body.

Turning his head and glanced at Zhou Da, Sun Jie asked curiously: "Does the people from Prince Qin's Mansion need a guide when they come out?"

The King of Qin is of royal blood, and he is well-known in the territory of Shaanxi. With such a power, there is still a way out of the city?Somewhat unbelievable.

Zhou Da sighed, and said: "I didn't need it before. In the early years, when people from the Qin Palace went out of the city, who dared to ask for a guide? If anyone wants to check our guide, then he will be slapped."

Speaking of this, Zhou Da's face became more aggressive.

It's not bad to be a dog's leg in Prince Qin's mansion, but not everyone can be such a dog's leg.

Jie Ao quickly disappeared, and then said: "But after Sun Yanwang came, it can't be done. Although Sun Yanwang dare not be rude to the prince, he will not show any face to us people.

Besides, he is indeed a capable person, and the court has to rely on him now. The prince feels that one thing more is worse than one thing less, and he may have to take care of him for anything in the future, so let us go out and take Lu Yin with us.

But we are also from the Prince Qin's Mansion after all, our guides are not the same as those mud legs.Our guides are blank guides specially issued by the governor's office, with the big seal of the governor's office on it, and the content on it can be filled out by yourself, and can even be used repeatedly. "

"Really?" Sun Jie cheered up.

If you can get a blank guide through the person in front of you, do you have to worry about going in and out of Xi'an Mansion in the future?

"Can I still lie to you? The people in my Prince Qin's Mansion are high above you. Don't look at his great reputation, Sun Yanwang, but let me tell you, in the eyes of us in the Prince of Qin's Mansion, he is just a dog, the dog of the royal blood relatives." !"

Zhou Da started to be arrogant again, put on airs, and didn't pay attention to Sun Chuanting at all.

This is the sorrow of capable ministers in the late Ming Dynasty. No matter how great your contributions are, no matter how great your abilities are, in the eyes of the royal family, you are just a slave.

Sun Jie wanted to ask about Blank Luyin, but if he talked too much, he would inevitably appear anxious and pay too much attention.

In business, this mentality is taboo.The more eager you are, the easier it is to be manipulated.

Sun Jie fell into silence again. Zhou Da originally thought that Sun Jie would definitely ask him about this matter, but unexpectedly he could hold back.

The donkey cart creaked and creaked on the small road. This is not an official road, so it was hard to avoid.

After turning a corner, the car walked onto the official road.

The speed increased all of a sudden, and after a short walk on the official road, the car came to the gate of Bei'anyuan.

A simple, majestic, and vicissitudes of life wall appeared in front of Sun Jie.

For thousands of years, the city in front of me has experienced many wars and witnessed the rise and fall of many dynasties.

Those legendary figures, those emperors and generals, have long been turned into loess, but the fortified city in front of me is left standing on the Guanzhong Plain, telling the past.

The city wall of Xi'an Mansion is 12 meters high, as high as a four-story building. There are towers and archery towers on the city gate. It is very majestic when viewed from the ground.

From time to time, a few cannons shining with metallic luster can be seen on the city wall. The black muzzle is like the mouth of a ferocious beast.

This is a cannon cast by the Ming army. Xi'an Prefecture is an important town in the northwest, so there are naturally a lot of cannons.

"Isn't it amazing?! Let me tell you, our Xi'an Mansion is a first-class fortified city in the world. Back then, Emperor Taizu Gao expelled countless peasants and spent countless money to build it.

It's not that I look down on those thieves, this kind of fortified city, even if they hold back their shit, they still don't want to take it down! "

Zhou Da's playful and playful voice came from behind.

Sun Jie nodded subconsciously, and said: "Indeed, the city wall is more than four feet high, and there are cannons on the city. It is really difficult for these rogues to get in."

The car continued to move forward, and refugees appeared on both sides of the official road.

From time to time, you can see porridge sheds built by the government, and some soldiers in military uniforms holding waist knives to maintain order.

In the years of chaos, if people are extremely hungry, the violence will increase exponentially under the instinctive trend, and these soldiers will be set up to prevent this kind of thing.

The further you go to the city gate, the more refugees there will be.

Looking around along the official road, you can see a lot of shacks.

The huts are very low, low and sticking to the ground, and are basically built with wild grass.

On both sides of the official road, many ragged refugees could be seen lying on the ground, their eyes glazed over, and they moaned silently.

Some old men in rough clothes wandered among these crowds, and if anyone was out of breath, they would be carried away.

There was an indescribably unpleasant smell in the air that made people sick.

Several flat ox carts passed by, covered with mats, and after going away, Sun Jie saw a pair of black and ashen feet on the floor behind the carriage.

On both sides of the official road, there are ragged refugees. Their eyes are dull and they can't see a little bit of light.

This is not a human, it is just a livestock waiting to die, and its life is not even as good as the pigs of later generations.

This tragic scene cannot be described in words, even modern realistic documentaries cannot describe this scene.

The sky does not see the sun, it is firmly covered by dark clouds, everywhere is gray, life and death are everywhere.

The atmosphere was so oppressive that Sun Jie couldn't breathe.

In troubled times, people are not as good as dogs.Morning birth and evening death are even more common. Human nature, morality, and dignity all disappear at this moment.

Sun Jie sat on the shaft of the car, watching the scene in front of him, his heart began to prick, as if there were ten thousand steel needles piercing.

Why can't the thieves in the late Ming Dynasty be wiped out?Without him, the government will force the people to rebel!
In the history books, "When you are hungry, people eat each other" is just a simple sentence, but at this moment, it is so real in front of Sun Jie's eyes.

As long as this person still has a conscience, it is impossible to remain indifferent.

"Ugh!"

After a long time, Sun Jie heaved a long sigh and closed his eyes.

An indescribable feeling brewed in Sun Jie's chest, and his fists were tightly clenched together.

Uneasy, uneasy, uneasy.
A belief rose from Sun Jie's chest. He opened his eyes and looked at the refugees in front of him, and his eyes became firm.

"If you don't change the world, you will never pay it back!" Gritting my teeth, I shouted in my heart.

Zhou Da looked at Sun Jie's back. Although he couldn't see his face, he could feel the change.

He said faintly: "It's not bad here, but if you go north, the situation is even worse. In the past few years, the officers and soldiers fought against the bandits several times, and the north was almost turned into a white field. That's the worst."

Although these refugees outside Xi'an Mansion are not full to eat, they don't have to be afraid of being captured by thieves to become city siegemen.Shaanxi has suffered disasters for several years, there is no way out! "

While speaking, several soldiers came over.

Of course they knew the chariot of King Qin's mansion, and after inspecting the road guides and personnel, they brought the donkey cart into the city by themselves.

On the way into the city, these soldiers kept driving the refugees who were blocking the official road.

If you walk slowly, you will be scolded at least, and beaten at worst.

Walking to the city gate, Sun Jie saw the porridge shed and the grain in the pot.

Where is the meal that people eat?There is a huge pot, half of which is full of water, with bran floating on the top and silt hidden underneath, when stirred with an iron spoon, a few scattered grains rolled in the pot.

The city gate gradually moved away, and white smoke spewed out from the donkey's nostrils.

"Hey!"

Amidst the yelling of the coachman, the donkey accelerated.

Halfway through the journey, the coachman stopped, took out a handful of soybeans from the bag on his body, and stuffed them into the donkey's mouth.

"Is this your first time in Xi'an Mansion? Do you have a place to live?" Zhou Da, who was sitting on a donkey cart, asked.

Sun Jie looked away from the soybeans in the driver's hand and said, "That's right, this is my first time here, and I don't have a place to live in Xi'an Mansion!"

"I have a house in Xi'an Fuxue. I haven't lived in it for many years. Why don't I rent it to you? What do you think?" Zhou Da's eyes lit up.

"Then how do you calculate the price?" Sun Jie turned around and asked.

"Even so, how about five taels of silver per month?" Zhou Da stretched out his right hand and said excitedly.

Sun Jie hadn't reacted yet, but Chen Hu, who was walking beside the donkey cart, became furious.

Five taels of silver is simply a lion's mouth.

In the past, one tael of silver could buy two shi of rice, and five taels of silver was ten shi of rice.

I don't know how many people these ten stone rice can support, it's like a lion.

In the Ming Dynasty, this price was very high, ridiculously high, and unbelievably high.

"Sir, is your house made of gold or silver? Why is it so expensive?" Chen Hu said dissatisfied.

Zhou Da raised his brows and scolded: "I am talking to your husband, why are you so talkative? Why is your family so uneducated? If you were in the palace, do you know what will happen to you?"

Chen Hu was very angry at this sentence, he was really unreasonable and money-minded.

Chen Hu wanted to get angry, but was stopped by Sun Jie: "Don't do that, I think Mr. Zhou's price is reasonable, just take me there!"

Zhou Da smiled openly: "Hahaha, okay, let's go then!"

Zhou Da hurriedly ordered the coachman to head towards Xi'an Fuxue.

Chen Hu walked beside the car, feeling aggrieved.

Xi'an Fuxue is located in Nancheng, and they entered the city from the north, so they span the entire Xi'an Fucheng.

By the time we got to Xi'an Fuxue, it was already dark.

Zhou Da took Sun Jie into the house and checked everywhere.

Although the price of the house is more expensive, it is not too bad.

It is a two-entry house with a small yard. Although there are many weeds in the yard, if it is cleaned up, it can still live in.

The house is a brick and tile house, which looks very solid, and there is no place to collapse. There is very little furniture. Except for the master bedroom, there are almost no other rooms.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs. There are two wing rooms in the front yard, and there is a huge open space outside.

In addition to the bedroom, there is a study room, left and right wing rooms and a kitchen in the backyard.

There are other firewood houses, toilets and so on, but the area is smaller.

Zhou Da took Sun Jie to inspect the yard and came to the back hall.

The back hall is very small and cannot accommodate many people.

"Brother Sun, how is my place? Is it okay?" Zhou Da laughed and said.

Sun Jie smiled and said: "It's okay, the rent will be handled according to Brother Zhou's instructions, but I don't have any money now."

"Hey, who do you think I am? How could I be stingy if I gave me a treasure today? The rent for the first two months of this house is free, so I can repay brother Sun's favor!" Zhou Da laughed. , pretending to be generous.

"Good!" Sun Jie replied.

After arranging things properly, Zhou Da walked out.

After sending Zhou Da out, Sun Jie returned to the back hall.

Standing in front of Sun Jie, Chen Hu said indignantly: "My lord, that guy is King Qin's dog. He is a guy who is blind to money. How could he give him the treasures of the fairy family for no reason? Besides, his family The price of the dilapidated house is too high!"

"Some things are not as simple as they seem on the surface. How can we enter Xi'an Mansion without him? Besides, there will be ways to get the money back in the future. Don't forget my identity. I want to get the money back, no Simple and easy?" Sun Jie said confidently.

Only then did Chen Hu settle down. Although he was fine on the surface, he already hated Zhou Daji in his heart.

"You guys wait here, I'll get something to eat!" Sun Jie left a sentence and came to the bedroom in the backyard.

A golden gate appeared in front of Sun Jie, and the light of the golden gate was brighter than before.

He walked into the Golden Gate without looking back, and Sun Jie came back to Hyundai.

I searched for some food in the supermarket, took a few unsold candles, a flashlight, a glass mirror, and bedding, bedding, bamboo bed and other items and returned to the end of the Ming Dynasty.
