Behind them are three carriages. On the carriage are lamas wearing red pointed hats. Five people hold their breath and blow a huge ox horn. Behind them are young lamas wearing yellow robes and red pointed hats, all holding strange gold axes. Yuan soldiers opened the road in front, and Yuan soldiers'' valiant cavalry guards on both sides. They came in from the south gate and went all the way to the East Street. The people on both sides were crowded, but they all looked at these red hat monks and soldiers and were silent.
As soon as Fang Qi saw these monks and soldiers, he thought that this might be Yang lianzhenjia''s bodyguard. The Tang Dynasty opened the ban for the first time because of the meritorious rescue of Shaolin monks, allowing the temple to have monks and soldiers. After that, no dynasty would allow the temple to have armed forces.
But Yang lianzhenjia has hundreds of monks and soldiers bodyguards. I''m afraid it''s Kublai Khan''s trust in him. He can''t help worrying. It seems that it''s not so easy to get rid of that guy.
With the acceleration of the inner Imperial City project, various ruling organs also began to be established. The planned north-south street is strictly prohibited for people from the Central Plains. This is the central axis of Yanjing city and the main channel to enter the inner city. The North-South Street will also be divided into 369 and so on. The North Street will set up various provincial and Taiwan yamen that can be directly intervened by the Khan, while the South Street is the residence of small government Yamen and Prime Minister De.
Not far from the north and South streets, there are two streets for ordinary people. Three days before the Spring Festival, a curfew began in the whole city. The Jiumen governor''s office sent a large number of Yuan soldiers to separate regions to count and register the population. Everyone living in Yanjing city will have a wooden sign similar to an ID card. With the care of Yelv Kailan, Fang Qimiao and the three sisters are lucky to have a bronze medal, which means that they are second-class citizens as Semu people.
Fang Qi held the sign and looked at it. In any era, class exists. The so-called equality of all people is just a YY slogan. If he climbs up to the relationship of governor, I''m afraid he holds a piece of wood like the next people.
On New Year''s Eve, there was a sound of firecrackers in the city. Fang an also bought a lot of firecrackers. They all put them outside the gate of the big house and pasted Red Gate pairs. The whole family ate together. One of the three girls is sweeter than the other. The second uncle is happy. This is called New Year''s greetings. The second uncle is happy and has a "red envelope". Oh, there was no wechat at that time, and I couldn''t send red envelopes, but there was a carton made of red paper that could hold small pieces of silver. Fang Qi and Miao Miao exchanged a lot of silver coins, which were specially used for sending red envelopes.
That night, they were coaxed by three girls. Of course, the servants of the whole family had to kowtow to pay New Year''s greetings to the second master, line up to kowtow, and send one red envelope to each person. Few people are so generous as Fang Qi and Miao Miao, so the whole family is happy. Fang Qi also wrapped three different red envelopes, one for Fang an and one for Fang Fu, and the rest was given to the Horse Boy Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng has no name. He was picked up by the disciple Lao Dai on the road. He took him begging and wandering everywhere. He rushed to the city building team before he didn''t starve to death. Xiaofeng kowtowed on the ground and cried, "uncle, give me a name, too. I finally have something to eat."
Lao Dai pulled him up and said, "little stopper, why are you crying for the new year? Bad luck! "
Fang Qi said, "OK, Xiaofeng, get up and be willing to raise your hand with those surnamed Fang and Miao." All the servants raised their hands and Fang Qi scratched his head. "Well, those who are willing to come to me and those who are willing to go to the second master."
The maid and her sons went to find the second master. Fang Qi was a little depressed. I just grew a little black. Black is black and has a character. Lao Dai Xiaofeng and other men are willing to take the surname Fang. He can''t think for a long time like Miao Miao with his cheeks. Xiaofeng is called Fang Xiaofeng. The horseboy who leads the horse should run as fast as the wind. Almost all the auspicious elephants, from fortune, longevity, wealth to the extension of your crane''s year, changed their original God code, two dogs, three bald children and four pockmarked children with new names. Everyone had their own new names, and everyone was happy. Fang Qi is also complacent.
But the housekeeper Fang an and the cashier Fang Fu are busy. All the names on the original roster have to be changed.
You can''t jump around on New Year''s Eve, and you''re not allowed to go on the street. With three girls, it will be much more fun. Each gives some riddles for everyone to guess. Naturally, there will be a reward. The three girls exchanged a lot of copper coins and guessed a reward of one or two copper coins, which was just for fun.
At midnight, the bell and Drum Tower sounded a few drums and hit the flood bell. The cook put the wrapped dumplings down and up. The whole family went out to shoot bamboo, and then gathered together to eat reunion dumplings. There are copper coins wrapped in dumplings. When someone eats copper coins, everyone has to congratulate him. Fang Qi looked at the people all over the room. He spoke with a southern accent and a northern accent, laughing and laughing. His heart was also beautiful. The whole family, together with Fang Qimiao, had a total of 23 people. It was at this moment that he remembered each face and name.
The next morning, Fang Qi was woken up by the sound of firecrackers outside. Just about to get up, Miao Miao hugged: "don''t get up. We''ll eat in bed when they send dumplings later."
Sure enough, the three girls shouted outside, "uncle, second uncle, dumplings are coming." Carrying a food box, the waitress put it on the Kang Table. They had to dress up and sit up. Fang Qi was embarrassed. "You don''t have to stand here. Go out if you have nothing."
The three girls crowded their eyes and wore new clothes made of Lingluo silk and satin rewarded by the governor. They all looked like immortals and knelt down together: "congratulations to the second master?"
Fang Qimeng couldn''t force, "where did Xi come from?"
Miao Miao took out the prepared red envelope: "stupid, I was old yesterday. Today is the new year. He Xi naturally needs a red envelope."
The third girl took the red envelope and ran out laughing. Fang Qi glanced: "ah, there are so many rules. The servants have to have it? "
"Don''t worry about it. I''ve made Fang an ready." Miao Miao picked up chopsticks and picked up dumplings. "Open your mouth." Fang Qi ate one and it tasted good. He sighed, "the local tyrant doesn''t have much surplus food. Fortunately, we made a profit years ago, otherwise we would have to worry to death this year. "
I changed into new clothes and didn''t use the maid to serve. I thought that the two children Xiaoxiu and Yanxing in the Wang family inn are good. I will redeem them next time. It''s much more comfortable to work in my house than old man Wang''s Inn.
I thought it was all right. Who knows, Fang Shou ran in and said, "uncle, go out and have a look. A man cried at the door and asked Uncle to help."
Fang Qixin said, it''s really strange. This is the occasion of the Chinese New Year. Why are you crying at my door? It''s so unlucky. He was angry and strode to the door. He saw a teenager kneeling at the door and crying.
