Chapter 127

Not long after, the yamen servant who went in to report came out, and respectfully invited her and her brother into the state yamen.

A trip to the yamen in ancient times is almost equivalent to a trip to the public security bureau in modern times. Li Xiaodao took a little guess while walking, and took a look around.

The state office looked very busy, she and her brother had to be careful and be smart, so as not to bump into the officials and soldiers who were rushing to and fro.

After entering the gate, it didn't take long to arrive at the lobby of the state government office.

The yamen servant led the two of them to the entrance of the hall, and pointed to the inside: "The person sitting in the hall is Gao Zongbing, and the person sitting below is Master Zhou Mu Chao. Just go in and pay a visit."

Li Xiaodao nodded to the yamen servant and thanked him with a smile.

She turned her head and saw her brother standing there with a pale face, and hurriedly shook his arm: "Brother, why don't you wait for me here, seeing you go in like this in fright, won't your mouth tremble."

Li Xiaoxin pressed his fingers on his younger sister's forehead: "You are the only one who is bold, you are the most courageous in our old Li family!"

Li Xiaodao smiled embarrassedly: "I can't say why, but I don't feel scared. You wait here, I will go in and report to the official."

After saying that, Li Xiaodao turned around and entered the hall, Li Xiaoxin was a little hesitant, but finally followed him in.

Looking into the lobby of the state government office, Li Xiaodao saw that Gao Zongbing sitting in the hall looked young, only in his twenties, with a dignified appearance, a majestic armor, and a casual posture; The Master State Shepherd on the table below seems to be around 50 to years old. He is fat and round, with a fat head and big ears. look.

Do you want to kneel down when you see such a high official?Uh, as a modern person, I really don't have the habit of kneeling before others. Li Xiaodao hesitated a little, looked up at Gao Zongbing with a serious expression, and then looked down at the blue brick floor.

Otherwise, just kneel down!Do as the Romans do!
She was about to bend her knees when they straightened again by themselves.

I didn't expect to be stumped by a mere kneeling after crossing over?

Li Xiaoxin was watching from the back to see that her sister didn't know what she was doing, she entered the hall without speaking or kneeling, she was worried that the officials in the hall would blame her, when she was about to grab her arm and knelt down together, she didn't expect that Gao Zongbing in the hall He actually spoke.

"Okay, you don't need to kneel, just talk directly. You said you can speak Japanese? Which one is it, is it you or the man behind you?"

Unexpectedly, Zongbing Gao was still so forthright, which solved her embarrassment, Li Xiaodao heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Xiaodao hurriedly thanked him, and said with a smile: "If you go back to your lord, it's me, and the one behind is my brother, who accompanied me."

"Understood. Where are you from? Why are you in Anzhou? You two look like you escaped from the provincial capital?"

When asked about his background, Li Xiaodao was stunned for a moment, thinking that he would start working directly like Mr. Zhu before, why did he ask so many questions?
She felt that this was not a good answer, and was about to organize her words when Li Xiaoxin behind her hurriedly answered, "Master Zongbing, my sister and I are both from Jinsha Town, and my father opened a lifelong medical center in Jinsha Town. The provincial capital also opened a medical clinic, that is, Baihetang on Linjin Street in the provincial capital; my brother-in-law was studying at Jingde Academy in the provincial capital, and my sister went to the provincial capital with him. Flee to Anzhou."

Li Xiaoxin knew that Gao Zongbing asked these questions to investigate their backgrounds, and he could not be involved with Japanese pirates, otherwise it would be a capital offense to communicate with Japanese pirates, so he didn't dare to delay, so he answered quickly.

After listening to Li Xiaoxin's answer, Gao Zongbing's expression didn't change, he just nodded slightly and said, "So that's it. Then how did you learn the Japanese language?" Gao Meng looked at Li Xiaodao.

Li Xiaodao had gone through this question in her mind beforehand, and she knew that she had to ask, so she answered smoothly: "Jinsha Town is near the sea, and there are Japanese people in the town, Japanese people are especially common, and the town will say There are also quite a few Japanese speakers, and I heard that they spoke interestingly, so I wanted to learn it, so I learned some."

"Well, good," Gao Zongbing nodded, "How much Japanese can you speak? Can you interrogate prisoners?"

Compared with Mr. Zhu, the vice-president of the Shibo Department, this General Gao is worthy of being a military officer, and he speaks very directly.

Li Xiaodao thought for a while, and said cautiously: "I dare not say that I can understand every word, but it should not be a big problem. It is enough to interrogate prisoners, and you can also write while speaking."

Gao Zongbing seemed quite satisfied, but he was unsmiling, and just said lightly: "Okay! That's you! I don't have time during the day, let them roughly interrogate some Japanese pirates who are willing to confess, and I will interrogate myself in the evening. You can do it today." Settling down in this yamen will start tonight. Mr. State Shepherd, you are in charge of the settlement, and I will ask you to ask for someone tonight."

Anzhou Muchao Caiwang hurriedly stood up and bowed again and again, "Yes, I will do it right now, immediately."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small soldier came to report the military situation at the entrance of the lobby. General Gao motioned him to wait, then got up and was about to leave, Li Xiaodao hurriedly called him to stop.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Gao Zongbing, that...doesn't it mean that the treatment is favorable?"

Hearing that the woman who speaks Japanese called him, Gao Meng turned around and snorted, "Are you courageous? Ordinary people are scared to death when they see me. How dare you negotiate terms with me?"

Standing behind Li Xiaodao, Li Xiaoxin, the courageous elder brother, has been frightened silly by his younger sister.

Li Xiaodao is actually not very courageous, but modern people have a weaker concept of superiority and inferiority in this ancient time. This is probably the sequelae of time travel, right?
Li Xiaodao squeezed his fingers secretly, constantly reminding himself that this is an evil feudal society, so be careful!

"That, that... If you can't mention it, don't mention it, don't mention it, you should be busy." Li Xiaodao smiled contemptuously, wanting to save his life.

"Hahaha..." Gao Meng laughed loudly and said, "Well, I pay for the treatment, Mr. Commander-in-Chief, one hundred Wen a day, how about it, is it enough?"

Thinking about the treatment of ten taels of silver a day in Shibosi before, Li Xiaodao secretly laughed in his heart, the market of this Japanese language is too bad, isn't it?

"Uh... Lord Chief Soldier, it's like this. I can interrogate the prisoner for you for free without taking any money. I just have a small request, I hope Lord Chief Soldier can satisfy..." Li Xiaodao whispered his thoughts.

"Free of charge? What request do you have, let me hear it!" Gao Meng said cheerfully.

"My brother's family and I, about a dozen people, came here to escape from the provincial capital. We have been sleeping in the open for seven or eight days. I hope that the commander-in-chief can arrange a place to live. As long as it is comfortable, it doesn't need a good place. Let’s go when we can go back to the provincial capital, see if it’s okay..." Li Xiaodao feels that ten people need two rooms at least, and the accommodation fee is more expensive than one hundred Wen, she suddenly feels hopeless , so speak more quietly.

 Baozi who can persist in the plot part these days~(^з^)-It’s not easy haha
  see you soon
