For the station, this convoy is large, but not difficult to serve.

The most fear of meeting a small and small official in the post station. Once it is released, he does not follow the rules and regulations. The king of heaven is not as good as him. He is domineering, asking for people, cars and horses, and even beating and scolding people if he is not satisfied, he will make the post chief very troubled.

The two imperial envoys this time were famous officials of the court. The Jinyiwei and the guards seemed to be easy to talk to. They had cars and horses themselves, so they did not requisition the post car and horses at the post station, nor did they need to send sedans and stewards to send dozens of miles to the post station. What else would they say?

Just serve three things well: people eat horses, chew them, hot water, and sleep.

Each post station has a rice warehouse and a forage warehouse, which corresponds to the two items of eating and chewing horses. Because there are a lot of horses coming back this time, it is placed in the horse farm outside the post station and raised with the post station's own post horses. Among the post station's post station's post station's post, it is not a problem to take care of it. The only rule that the horses are not left at night is to "stay horses away", so dozens of their horses are wrapped in the small horse farm in the yard.

In the inn on each side, there are two dining rooms as usual, one big and one small, the one big is for followers, and the one small is for the officials and nobles and their families. This time, there are many people coming, so it is obvious that the great post station is so powerful that the chefs and chefs at the inn started working together. Not long after, the hot pot of vegetables, rice and hot soup were brought up.

The soldiers cheered in unison and strictly assigned to eat in turn according to the dispatch on duty. Since leaving Chaoyang Gate, this meal has been the most comfortable and enjoyable. First, because it is three hundred miles away from Beijing, the atmosphere of the thief gradually faded, and second, after dinner today, you don’t need to rush overnight, you can sleep on the bed well, of course everyone is happy.

In order to avoid accidents, the emperor and the empress did not go downstairs as usual and ate in the room. The Jinyiwei put a warning on both sides of the corridor on the second floor, so the food had to be transferred - first the servants of the post station were taken to the Jinyi Captain, and then the Jinyi Captain was delivered to the door of the room and handed it to Wang Chengen and Zhuzi to bring it in.

The emperor and the empress did not go downstairs, so the ministers who followed him naturally could not go downstairs to eat on their own. Zhou Shixian invited Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu to his room to eat together. He specifically avoided Tang Ruowang because while chatting, he also had something to do.

"That Yicheng, whose surname is Chu, is a figure." Li Banghua said, "He is bold and meticulous, and he is not panicked when encountering things. When he sees our convoy, he actually dares to bring people out to fight, hey."

Zhou Shixian also felt the same way. Nowadays, even officers and soldiers, almost no general dared to lead his troops out of the city to fight, let alone an ordinary post station?

"Meng Weng said it right, he actually wanted to check the imperial edict." Ni Yuanlu agreed, "To be honest, the current situation is in chaos and the day is in danger. As long as you can build a village and defend yourself, you can already be considered an outstanding candidate.

"That's exactly what!" Zhou Shixian also continued, "Under the current situation outside, if there is any accident, you must prepare early. This time I left the capital in a hurry. Meng Weng and Mr. Ni must have not had time to prepare their luggage?"

Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu were both stunned and thought to themselves that we were asking you, were we taken down by your Jinyiwei, what can we prepare? A quilt or a mattress?

"The world is a little bit willing to do it. I'll fill your bags for you. Fortunately, don't refuse."

After saying that, he took two large sealed bags and pushed them in front of them.

The two looked at each other, and Li Banghua picked up a sealed bag and poured out the things inside. He saw that it was three small rubies, which were red and bright, with excellent appearance. He was surprised at first. There was also a smaller bag, which was heavy and extremely heavy. He knew it was sand gold when he pinched it, and at least seventy or eighty taels were needed.

"Mr. Concubine, this is not done..."

"Meng Weng," Zhou Shixian stopped him first, "This trip is thousands of miles south, and it is in danger. If the convoy is dispersed, maybe with this little thing, you can reach Nanjing alive!"

Of course this is just a statement, and Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu also know it. They are not corrupt officials, but they are not Hai Rui-style figures. They still receive gifts from their disciples, but they have no such relationship with Zhou Shixian, so they cannot help but hesitate.

"I know that the two cliffs are high and steep, and I will never dare to make it boring. This thing is not a free gift. When I get Nanjing, my salary will be paid, and I will be paid back to me."

"That's fine," Li Banghua and Ni Yuanlu silently put the sealed bag into their sleeves and said, "The prince consort has benefited a lot, so I won't thank you."

"Where is it?" the prince-consin smiled and pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Please use it. Tonight, I will only discuss personal friendship, and I will fall asleep tomorrow. I will also have some official knowledge. I want to ask Meng Weng and Ni Gong for advice."

After dinner, the hot water in the kitchen was boiled out one pot after another and carried it out in a wooden barrel. According to the rules of the post traveler, no matter how many people there are, each room is divided into one bucket. Eight soldiers live in one room, which is also one bucket. Zhou Shixian lives in one room by himself, which is also one bucket.

With hot water, add the cold water from the water tank in the room and take a good shower. This is what you most desire.

However, when delivering water to the second floor, I encountered a little trouble.

The servant brought the burned hot water and took it by several Jinyishis. A total of four large barrels were sent to Chongzhen's room, Zhou Shixian's room, and Li Banghua's three people's room. Only the queen's room could not be entered. She didn't even dare to take a look at it. Otherwise, one day a big hat that "snoops into the bedroom" would be put down, and someone would die. So he only dared to put the big wooden barrel on the porch outside the door, and quickly slipped back to the station to rule.

Zhuzi, Wang Chengen and Zhou Shixian looked at the heavy wooden barrel and looked at each other. Needless to say, Zhuzi was powerless, and Eunuch Wang was weak and could not help at all. Zhou Shixian had the strength, but unfortunately he had not cleaned himself and did not meet the requirements for entering the palace.

"I'll go in and ask," Zhuzi glanced at Zhou Shixian, "You can't say that the Empress can't take a shower, right?"

When the beads entered, they didn't know what they said, so they heard Queen Zhou chuckling and said, "What's the point! Ask him to carry it in."

He followed Zhuzi and then walked out, kicked the curtain for him, and whispered: "Empress, please carry it in."

Zhou Shixian was also a little nervous. He held the handle of the wooden barrel with both hands, bent his arms and exerted force. With a whistle, he lifted the wooden barrel to his chest, stepped into the door, and walked into the inside step by step. Because the bucket was filled with hot water, the water vapor was filled with water vapor. Through the water vapor, he could only vaguely see that the queen and princess had taken off their mink clothes, and could not see clearly what they were wearing.

"Okay, let's leave it here." Queen Zhou said with a smile.

"Yes." Zhou Shixian bent down and gently placed the large wooden barrel on the ground, looking at his eyes and his nose, breathing evenly and said, "I will leave."

This is the queen's bedroom. Even with Princess Changping on his side, he cannot do anything unscrupulous.

However, when Princess Zhaoren saw him, she was extremely happy. She was wearing a white double-breasted underwear and a pair of fat feet. She jumped over and ran over. Seeing that he turned around and was about to leave, she grabbed his hand.

"Shixian," she said reluctantly, "Would you please stay here and wash with us?"

"Shut up!"

"nonsense!"

The angry shouts of Ah Niang and Ah Sister sounded at the same time, and even Zhuzi blushed. He hurriedly hugged her, covered her mouth with one hand, and caught her back.

Zhou Shixian left the door in a mess and closed the doors. After a while, he heard a click, and knew that it was beads coming over and getting the door bolt.

When Wang Chengen, who was waiting at the door, saw the prince consort's appearance of sweating, he could not help but have a little doubt when he looked at him.

Zhou Shixian smiled and said, "What a big bucket, it's heavy."
