Chapter 77: It's all the gnawing chicken's fault

Duan Baoquan was determined to ask why, but he didn't dare to ask, because he was afraid of causing trouble. For people like him who listened to bad things, the easier it was to do everything, the better, and the fewer troubles, the better. He went out to explain the matter so that his subordinates could no longer catch the noble son.

Wang Anran found another room and rested for one night. Nothing else happened. He struggled for a day and was very tired. He slept until dawn.

The next morning, because there were too many young couples of Zheng Congbao, the matter could not be left to others to deal with, so as not to lose Zheng Conghu's face. Wang Anran had to lead the team back to Liangzhou. He was furious again on the road, but he did not find the noble son again.

When he returned to the governor's mansion, Wang Anran went to see Taurus first and told him that he had not found Li Longji. Taurus was very anxious, but he knew that it was too urgent to do so, so he could only urge Wang Anran to continue looking for it. He might as well not come back and stay outside until he received the person. Wang Anran had to agree.

After leaving the governor's mansion, Wang Anran did not dare to delay and asked Duan Baoquan to inform the officers to prepare for a long-term outing to suppress the bandits, say hello to his family, and bring the necessary items. The trip took at least ten days.

Duan Baoquan passed the news and the servants were even happier. They were all willing to go on long-term business trips. It would be fine if they were escorting the prisoners, but now they are looking for people on Mandao Road, and this job is not hard. And last night they tasted the sweetness at the rich man's house. Not only did they say that they were delicious, good food, drink and live well, but before leaving, the rich man offered a sum of money for wine. Everyone had a share of the servants. The rich man meant to ask the servants not to live in his house next time.

The servants were very happy about following Wang Anran out for a business trip, and even happier when they were on a long journey. There were so many rich men in Liangzhou who ate from house to house, not to mention ten days, they could not finish it even in a month!

Wang Anran did not dare to waste time. He took Zheng Congbao and his wife to the checkpoint and sent them to Zheng Conghu. This matter must be done privately and the Zheng family cannot lose face.

He rushed to the gate with a quick horse. Zheng Congbao saw the big food stall that was booming before the gate and shouted excitedly: "This is the legendary big food stall, the big food stall that specializes in eating chickens?"

His little lover also became excited, clamoring to eat the chicken that he could eat. He also said that on the way here, he heard others talk about the chicken that he had eaten, saying it was so delicious that he could not do it, so delicious that he thought he could just eat it once and go to bed at night.

Both of them are fun and active, but to put it bluntly, they are still children who have not grown up, so they are naturally very interested when they hear new things.

Wang Anran was very surprised and asked, "Why, my business has only been open for a short time, and it has only been a month since the situation of eating chickens?"

Zheng Congbao said: "Yes, it won't take long before even Chang'an will know. As long as we come, as long as people from Liangzhou are talking about chewing chickens, I want to try it."

His little lover asked, "Brother Wang, is this food stall your business? Isn't an official not allowed to do business? It's too embarrassing to be a scholar!" She was ignorant and said whatever she thought of, and she didn't realize that this was a bit slap in the face, and she was too disrespectful to Lord Wang Dianshi.

Wang Anran said with a sneer and said, "Shame, I am just a fifth-class official with no grade. I guess other scholars don't want to look at me with the eyes, so no one cares about what business I do."

Zheng Congbao hurriedly said, "It's nothing to do business. Our Zheng family also does business, but they are all done under the name of others. If you don't do some business and don't have any foreign money, the family's expenses will not be maintained."

But his little lover said, "Then let's go and eat together, I've long wanted to eat the chicken I ate!"

Wang Anran dared not let them show up in public. Before meeting Zheng Conghu, the fewer people knew about their affairs, the better. He said, "It's not too late to eat the chicken you chew after seeing your second brother. You can eat as much as you want. It's okay to eat every day. Let's do the main business first. After you have done your affairs, I have something else to do and I can't stay here for a long time."

The couple couldn't do it, so they had to follow Wang Anran to the military camp.

As soon as they entered the military camp, both officers and soldiers greeted Wang Anran enthusiastically. Since the expedited money was collected at the checkpoint, their income surged, and after the food stalls were opened, they could eat and drink freely. Their lives were quite comfortable and they lived a beautiful life. They did not forget to dig wells when they drank water. When they saw Wang Anran, they naturally expressed their gratitude.

Zheng Congbao said in surprise: "Brother Wang, it seems that you have great prestige in the army. Then when you see my second brother, you have to say more kind words to me. Don't let him hit me, and don't let him take me home!"

"Okay, no problem, I will cover it all with me!" Wang Anran thought to herself, you have got all the big girl, cook the rice and cook it all, it's too late to say anything, what's the use of beating you? As for going home, go back after giving birth to a baby!

When I came to Zheng Conghu's barracks, I saw that the door was closed. After asking, I realized that Zheng Conghu was not in the camp and led the team out to patrol. I heard that there was no peace in the west recently, and the bell king was making a fuss, so Zheng Conghu could only lead his troops out to patrol.

In the past, Zheng Conghu no longer had many merchants here, but now it is not possible. There are fewer merchants coming, which directly affects the income problem. He can only grit the bullet and actively patrol, and the general cannot make him lazy, and the general wants to earn more.

Wang Anran had to ask the couple to go to Zheng Conghu's room first to wait, and explained to other officers that this was Zheng Conghu's relative. After Zheng Conghu came back, he would make another arrangement. He had an urgent matter and wanted to go back to the city first. The officer thought it was to come to visit relatives, and this kind of thing happened frequently in the army, and it was entrusted by Wang Anran, so he agreed happily, saying that he would take good care of the couple.

After finishing this, Wang Anran rode into the pass, went home first, took out a change of clothes, told his parents that he was going on a long-term business trip, and attracted four great kings and took them back to the city.

As soon as he returned to the city, Taurus sent someone to find him, called him to the flower hall of the back house, took out a letter, and said anxiously: "This is the letter I just received. You have caused a big trouble to the official. I said that the chicken I ate cannot be sold, but you just don't listen. Look, I'll cause trouble this time!"

When did you say this? Seeing that Taurus wanted to clear his responsibilities, he had to let others clear his responsibilities.

Wang Anran was stunned at first and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, it's all bad for the officials. If I had heard the words of the lord, there would definitely be no such trouble." He took the letter, opened it and read it all.

After reading it, Wang Anran felt a headache. The letter was written by the young marquis of Chang'an, saying that after leaving Chang'an, Li Longji went to Lingzhou first, and then he no longer took a detour to Liangzhou. Instead, he went outside the pass. One was to enjoy the scenery of the grassland, and the other was to enter the pass at the Liangzhou pass, and by the way, he tasted the chickens that were popular in the northwest recently. Because the chickens he ate were so famous, even Li Longji wanted to taste them.

This is really a fear of being famous, and a chicken is also afraid of being famous!

Wang Anran was also anxious and said, "What should I do? Isn't that saying that the prince is going to go outside the pass? We can't pick him up outside the pass. It's very dangerous outside the pass, and there are countless thieves!"

Taurus was anxious and stomped his feet and said, "What does it mean to not be able to go? You have to go! The trouble is caused by you, you can solve it yourself. Also, you can't let the army know about this first, and you can only take people to do it, so as not to see the prince first and steal the first taste of my official!"

"Then, then, okay!" Wang Anran said with a tough forehead: "Then you will take people out of the seclusion to suppress the bandits!"
