19第十章 鉴牌1（2/2）

越接近城门<></span>叶曼青心中越是焦躁<></span>那些兵勇的面容看着如此凶狠<></span>她脚步一顿<></span>就要转身离开这个地方<></span>

<></span>叶姑娘<></span><></span>

木怀彦拉住她的衣袖<></span>不着痕迹地让她回到队伍中<></span>才倾身低语道：<></span>叶姑娘莫急<></span>一切交给在下即可<></span><></span>他的声音不疾不徐<></span>就那么轻轻拂过<></span>便把她的焦躁缓缓抚平<></span>

叶曼青心中微定<></span>便由着人群把她往城门口推去<></span>

走近了就见门口两边各摆一张小方桌<></span>桌旁都坐一个师爷模样的人<></span>正执笔疾挥<></span>边上兵士喝一声<></span>他便落笔一勾<></span>

叶曼青正暗自奇异<></span>队伍已轮到齐楚<></span>只见他探手摸出一块半个手掌大的暗红色木牌一晃<></span>那兵士见了<></span>登时恭谨地躬身弯腰<></span>侧头对着师爷叫了声<></span>烈<></span><></span>见师爷勾了才恭请齐楚入城<></span>

齐楚似有些迟疑<></span>回头看了一眼<></span>忽然嘴角一勾<></span>转身走了<></span>

叶曼青一愣<></span>却对上那兵士的脸<></span>她唬了一跳<></span>还未反应过来<></span>身后站着的木怀彦便移步上前<></span>手掌上托着两块土黄色的木牌<></span>牌子中间各刻着一字<></span>

<></span>禹<></span><></span>

木怀彦侧头微笑：<></span>叶姑娘<></span>请<></span><></span>

叶曼青愣愣地点头<></span>跟在他身后往城内走去<></span>

城楼下很有一段距离<></span>高高的城门下方幽凉<></span>两旁排立的士兵更让这一段路显得肃穆<></span>众人都不敢在此喧哗<></span>只紧走着向前<></span>

过了外墙<></span>烈日当空<></span>阳光明媚<></span>那种压抑的氛围顿去<></span>叶曼青不由长出一口气<></span>她不禁回头看去<></span>只见这一侧拱门上方只书刻两个朱红大字<></span>她查了一下方位<></span>猜测这道门该是东城门<></span>

<></span>怎么<></span>还舍不得走<></span><></span>

调笑的清朗嗓音在前方响起<></span>只见齐楚抱剑而立<></span>似笑非笑地看着他们<></span>

中鸿城果然不愧是前朝都城<></span>其繁华之处让人赞叹<></span>街市两旁店楼林立<></span>高矮错落有致<></span>时有金漆朱纹装饰华美的楼阁远远现出一角<></span>道上行人步履安适<></span>随意光顾路边摆设的小摊<></span>其中不乏绸衣华服的人<></span>

木怀彦领着他们两人进了茶馆<></span>寻了个临窗的桌子坐下<></span>随意指着窗外跟他们介绍着中鸿城的有名之处<></span>

<></span>这里的人看起来生活得很不错啊<></span><></span>叶曼青端着茶水看了半晌<></span>忍不住开口叹道<></span>她虽然没有见过这个世界的其他城市<></span>但她高中的历史老师说过<></span>古代判断人民生活水平好不好<></span>只要看百姓的脸色就可以了<></span>过着贫苦生活的人<></span>大多面黄肌瘦且眼神无光<></span>而她眼下所看到的<></span>大部分人都是举止悠然有序<></span>面上还带着三分笑容<></span>

木怀彦颔首：<></span>叶姑娘说得不错<></span>前朝之时<></span>中鸿城繁华自不必言<></span>十二州千百城苑的奇珍异宝皆自四方集齐而来<></span>即便后来历经战乱改朝换代<></span>中鸿城也因城池未遭战火侵袭而分毫无损<></span>近百年来中鸿城的百姓都过着富足的生活<></span>实在让其他州城的人羡慕<></span><></span>

<></span>中鸿城自八年前封给最得帝宠的三皇子后<></span>更是圣恩隆眷<></span>富贵不绝啊<></span><></span>齐楚转动着手中的茶杯<></span>口气有些玩味道<></span>

叶曼青认真听着他们话语中透露出的信息<></span>轻轻<></span>嗯<></span>了一声<></span>

静坐一会儿<></span>木怀彦取出一块土黄色的木牌放在叶曼青面前<></span>微笑道：<></span>叶姑娘<></span>这块鉴牌你先收着吧<></span>日后说不定有用<></span><></span>

叶曼青愣了一下<></span>就听木怀彦继续说道：<></span>鉴牌乃天熙十二州通行之物<></span>由各州府发放<></span>既有‘品鉴’之意<></span>又有‘引荐’之用<></span>这块苍禹牌品级为五<></span>用于行走各地倒还便利<></span>叶姑娘放心用着便是<></span><></span>

叶曼青听他这么细细讲述<></span>心头微动<></span>不料眼前突然出现一张大脸<></span>吓得她一个后仰差点栽倒在地<></span>

<></span>啧<></span>原来还会动啊<></span>这么呆呆的<></span>我还以为你傻了呢<></span>还不快把牌子收起来<></span><></span>齐楚捡起木牌扔到叶曼青怀里<></span>见她手忙脚乱地接住<></span>才闲闲道<></span><></span>小丫头<></span>下次有不知道的直接问就是<></span>别憋在心里乱想<></span>当然<></span>只能问木头和我哦<></span><></span>

叶曼青第一次没有反驳他的<></span>小丫头<></span>叫法<></span>她只是悄悄用手指描绘着木牌上的字迹纹路<></span>许久<></span>才低声说了句<></span>谢谢<></span><></span>跟-我-读WEN文-XUE学-LOU楼 记住哦！
