The County Public Security Bureau gave another day off during the Lantern Festival, but Jiang Wan did not feel happy at all.

Ever since I went to Liu Jingzhou’s banquet during the Spring Festival, people around me seemed to be pointing fingers at me more and more.

But when Jiang Wan looked at it attentively, everyone was at peace with each other.

Another change is that there are even fewer jobs left.

Either prepare to send me a more difficult errand, or prepare to send me back to Lingling Hometown?

Jiang Wan did not accept these two possibilities very much. Now in his position as Shu Zuo, he only needs to copy official documents. The rest of the time, he sits by the door watching birds and flowers and watching people selling goods. It is very leisurely and comfortable.

Although Lingling is my hometown, it is quite troublesome to do things. When entering or leaving, I have to flatter the prefect. I couldn't stand it, so I came to the police.

As for promotion... Jiang Wan thought of the name Zhuge Liang, and pain appeared on his handsome face.

The amount of copying done by the three assistants in Jiang Wan's palace in one day was said to be only half the workload of the military advisor and general, so they went to him...

I sighed again, but I still have to watch it during the Lantern Festival holiday.

It is said that Xudu or Luoyang Chang'an have the habit of putting up lanterns and colorful decorations today. Gong'an County did not have such lanterns at first. However, a few vendors made their own pale paper lanterns with crooked paintings of Shen Tu and Yu Lei. A vicious door god.

Jiang Wan walked over without squinting, he wanted to see Qu Nuo.

A stage had already been set up in front of the county government office, and the people around it were densely packed. Jiang Wan took advantage of his eight-foot tall figure and had a good view, so he squeezed into a place with a good view. When he looked around, he burst out laughing.

He saw Ma Youchang, who was chatting with him at the banquet, wearing a crooked Nuo hat. He was talking with a bitter look on his face to Zhuge Liang, who was three points more handsome than him.

As time went by, more and more people gathered here. Even the rooftops were full of people, all waiting eagerly, and there was no open space.

Fortunately, I came early!

Jiang Wan was very happy.

As the sun officially disappeared behind the mountains, all the bonfire torches around the platform were lit. For a moment, the surrounding area was as bright as daylight, and the people became solemn.

When Jiang Wan saw Ma Youchang, he held back all his strength and shouted in a long voice:

Qi Zibei, please drive away the epidemic——

Dozens of men and women solemnly took to the stage, wearing various masks and standing on tiptoe with bare feet to perform the wonderful Nuo steps.

Among them, a tall bronze ghost-faced man shouted, and the others sang along:

...A's eating is evil, the Moon's stomach eats tigers, the male's food is evil, Teng Jian's food is unlucky, and all the food is responsible for it, Boqi eats in dreams!

Qiang Liang and Zu Ming both ate phosphorus and parasitic parasites. They followed the concept of food. They stopped eating giants. Qiongqi and Tenggen ate poison together! Every one of the twelve gods...

The people around him also sang along in low voices, and Jiang Wan also sang softly, tapping the time.

This is the most familiar song to drive away Nuo among the people of the Han Dynasty. When singing this song, one hopes to invite twelve divine beasts such as Jia Zuo, Xiong Bo, Teng, Jian Boqi, etc., to eat twelve kinds of plagues respectively.

After singing this twice, several people on the stage wearing masks of the Twelve Divine Beasts were also chasing other masked people with ghost faces, and finally drove those with the ghost faces of the disease to the audience, and cheers broke out among the people.

After the epidemic was over, some men and women wearing masks climbed up on the stage again, led by the Bronze Ghost Mask again, this time with a different lyrics:

...went to carry Liu Jun out of anger, and the Red Cliff was filled with flames... Then the country was settled and the Han Dynasty was inherited forever...

Because the Taibao calmed down his anger, the good gods protected me in Jiangyuan, Jingzhou was peaceful and peaceful, and the emperor Wei Qujiang... All the people are happy to congratulate the Taishou, and it will last for thousands of years.

The people didn't understand it at all, but they could tell that what was being sung was that Liu Jingzhou had won the battle before and protected everyone from Cao's thieves.

So many people sang along.

In front of the county government, Kong Ming and Guan Yu stood together and watched Qu Nuo. Guan Yu pinched his beard and said softly:

I didn't expect my third brother to have such skills.

The three generals have a strong voice and are the best candidates. Kong Ming said.

The two of them looked at Zhang Fei who was wearing a bronze ghost mask on the stage, and they could see that Zhang Fei was also very excited about playing.

Can it be done if I just send Zilong to protect my elder brother? After much hesitation, Guan Yu asked this question.

Marquis Sun is making good friends sincerely, General Guan can rest assured. Kong Ming explained:

Furthermore, the combat effectiveness of General Zilong's 'part-colored horse followers' is no less than that of the white horse followers. They come and go like the wind, so my lord will definitely not be in danger of his life.

And... Maybe it felt bad to say this, but Kong Ming still said:

Moreover, Zhou Gongjin used his sick body to plan Jingyi, but God does not miss the year and is jealous of talents. How can such a desperate plan be accomplished?

There are some hidden things that are not said, that is, in Kong Ming's opinion, the moment Zhou Gongjin received Lu Su's secret letter, it was impossible for Zhou Gongjin's plan to succeed.

Even though the Governor of Zhou had unrivaled talents and plans, Sun Quan was helpless and hesitant, lacking the ruthless ambition of a hero like Sun Ce.

Kong Ming sighed when he thought of Sun Ce, Lu Su, who died of illness at the age of only forty, and Zhou Yu, whose lifespan was already counting down.

Is it true that in Jiangdong, all talented people are short-lived?

There is one more thing, please pay attention to General Guan. Kong Ming said softly: Mrs. Sun is new here, and she will definitely be domineering.

Kong Ming is already planning the next thing:

Please ask General Guan and General Zhang to plan something to scare Mrs. Sun. This will also keep the lord's back house clean.

Sister-in-law, this... Guan Yu hesitated. Isn't this inappropriate?

Sun Hou was stabbed in the back in the battle of Xiangfan. Kong Ming suddenly mentioned something unrelated:

For ten years, Marquis Sun sat and watched his lord capture Jingyi and Hanzhong. It was not until General Guan's battle came to Xiangfan that Marquis Sun stabbed him in the back.

Guan Yu's face looked very ugly when he mentioned this incident. He had no regrets about dying at the hands of a hero, but he was defeated by such villains...

After taking Xiangfan, in the words of Xiangrui Guangmu, it was like putting a knife between Cao Cao's neck.

But this knife was also placed on Marquis Sun's neck. Such actions caused the alliance to break up.

From this point of view, it seems that Marquis Sun is deeply afraid of his lord.

So General Guan, feel free to do whatever you want, as long as you don't break the rules.

After studying the light curtain discourse recently, Kong Ming also gained new insights into the word contradiction, and he also had a clear understanding of Sun Quan's situation.

Even though Zhou Yu was Sun Ce's orphan on his deathbed, Sun Hou did not fully trust Zhou Yu. He was from Jianghuai, but Sun Hou's behavior was neither biased towards the Jianghuai faction nor completely towards the Jiangdong faction.

Sun Hou, it seems that everyone believes it, but no one believes it.

To Sun Hou, Sun Shangxiang was just a chess piece that could be summoned and left at the same time.

Perhaps, he also wanted to use her to monitor the inside of the Public Security County?

On the stage, Zhang Fei's lyrics had changed to the third verse:

...the ghosts and ghosts of the old years have been driven out of other rivers within the territory. Cattle and sheep are everywhere, and grain is like Tianzhu Mountain. Brothers support younger brothers, and sisters-in-law are connected.

Men and women respect each other, and fathers and sons have been reunited for generations...sons and sons sing in unison, wishing that Peng and his ancestors would live together in the same year.

This time Jiang Wan and the people cheered and sang loudly, trying to let the gods and ghosts hear their best wishes for the new year.

In the meantime, some people were sobbing softly, Alang's father...maybe he can rest in peace?

Looking at the people whose faces were illuminated by bright firelight, Kong Ming suddenly had an interesting question in his heart:

Sun Hou...do you know the injury of Governor Zhou?
