"Ok?"

Ning Rong was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Xi Zhicai meant.

"Ahem... the three of us are close together, just walk over, don't need to take a sedan chair..."

Xi Zhicai glanced at Ning Rong's puzzled expression, and added another sentence.

Oh……

Ning Rong suddenly realized, and curled his lips indifferently, wondering what he was thinking.

cut!

To be a sedan chair, you still care about other people's opinions?how?Who is not convinced and let him bite me!

Thinking so, Ning Rong's face returned to its original appearance in an instant.

"Brother, don't worry, although there are only a few of us in Yong'an Square, but... isn't it a long way to walk there?"

Ning Rong comforted with a smile, then pointing playfully to a row of houses in the distance and said: "Besides, look at that courtyard, is that Zilian's house? Zizi...a courtyard with ten entrances and ten exits Well, why does it take up ten acres of land? You have to walk hundreds of meters to go there!"

Uh?

Xi Zhicai did not expect that Ning Rong would have the leisure to make fun of him.

Hey!

calm down!

Ning Rong's indiscriminate trick is to put Zhicai on the sedan chair. Although this Yong'an Square is not small, there are only a few families. The key is that these people are all prominent figures under Cao Cao's command. Which family's mansion is smaller?

No!

Even people like Ning Rong, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, who are simple-minded and don’t covet vanity, repeatedly asked Cao Cao to build a mansion for them according to the five-entry and five-exit courtyard!

That's it!Putting it in other workshops is also like a giant!

In order to better manage Xuchang, and for the foundation of future generations, Cao Cao re-planned the city layout according to the model of the military city from the beginning of construction!

It is no exaggeration to say that when Xuchang City officially opens its arms to people, his layout will surprise everyone. His magnificence is even more than that of Chang'an!

Others don't know, but Ning Rong knows clearly that this city was designed by him at the beginning, and the original intention of his design was to build it into the third imperial capital!

Now, except for the seemingly dewy imperial city, the entire layout of Xuchang has actually revealed his face to everyone, but... everyone has not paid attention to it!

If someone is interested in browsing Xuchang City, he will definitely be amazed at the grand scale, rigorous layout, symmetrical structure and neat arrangement of Xuchang City.

From outside to inside, Xuchang City is divided into outer city, inner city, imperial city, and palace city. There are three gates on each side of the outer city, and there are twelve gates in total.

And it is the six main streets that run through the twelve city gates. These six main streets are straight and wide, and they are the main traffic routes of the whole city. The Suzaku Avenue, which runs from north to south, is a standard central axis.

It will connect the future palace city, imperial city, inner city, and outer city from north to south, and divide Xuchang City into two parts that are symmetrical from east to west.

In order to satisfy people's daily life, Ning Rong planned a business district in the east and west respectively, which were called East City and West City.

There are eleven north-south avenues and fourteen east-west avenues in the outer city and the inner city, which divide all the residential areas into 110 neat squares, whose shape is similar to a chessboard.

Of course, the neat and strict layout naturally requires a good curfew to restrain the people of Xuchang City, so the Jingjie Drum appeared. Every evening, the huge Jingjie Drum will spread throughout Xuchang City, and people from all walks of life The Fangzheng of the square will close the gate of the square. Before the gate of the square is opened the next day, all pedestrians and people will go home, and the homeless will go to the inn on the street to live!

In order to forcefully implement this policy of blessing and future generations, and to allow himself to sleep more comfortably, Cao Cao even transferred the Tiger Guards into the city. Whenever night fell, they would patrol the entire Xuchang City. If you wander the streets, you will be caught and thrown into prison by these burly men!

Troubled times should use heavy code!

When Ning Rong heard Zhou Cang's words, he naturally approved of Cao Cao's actions.

"Hey, young master, I don't know the horror. The soldiers of the Tiger Guards are extremely domineering. The last time they took the drunk General Cao Hong into prison, I heard that these iron men knew them from the eyes of the Tiger Guards General Dian Wei. And General Xu Chu, others, no matter who they are, as long as they violate the curfew regulations, they will be directly imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple!"

"Dali Temple?" Hearing the name, Ning Rong twitched the corner of his mouth and gasped.

Dead face, full of pets!

"Cough! If it falls into his hands, even I won't feel better..."

The corners of Ning Rong's mouth turned up, remembering that Man Chong stared at him all day long, he couldn't help feeling dizzy.

"How did Cao Hong get out?" Ning Rong asked curiously, could it be that Cao Cao fished him out.

"Hey! Mr. Cao really went, but... I heard that I don't know what Master Manchu said, and then he left angrily. Later, it was Madam Ding who brought General Cao Hong home!" Zhou Cang talked about Man Chong's eyes. some respect.

Ning Rong knew that there were many courtiers who dared to contradict the lord, but those who dared to disrespect the lord in this way, Man Chong can be said to be Cao Wei No. 1!

"Oh? Mrs. Ding is kind, generous, and considerate to the common people. She still has to give her face!" Ning Rong nodded.

"The young master is wise, but Mr. Cao was furious about it. If Mr. Xun hadn't dissuaded him, Mr. Manchu would have been unlucky. It was only later that another person violated the curfew and was taken to Dali Temple. Mr. Cao turned his anger into joy. It is said that Mr. Did you personally go to Dali Temple to apologize to the Mandarin?"

Oh?

To make Cao Cao change his original intention, Man Chong must have done something of high moral character.

Ok……

Ning Rong frowned in thought, looked at Zhou Cang's smiling face, a hint of understanding came to his mind, yes!He can really do this kind of thing!

"But righteousness kills relatives..."

Ning Rong asked affirmatively, seeing Zhou Cang's shocked appearance, he already knew that he had guessed right.

"The young master is exhaustive, and my old Zhou admires it! Hey! I don't know what that Man Wei thinks. Not only did he not return late at night calling for friends, but after being caught by the Tiger Guards, he didn't even come back." Afraid, he was careless instead, bluffing and saying that the Mandarin would let him go!"

Zhou Cang swallowed his saliva, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "The Tiger Guards reported this matter to General Dian Wei, and General Dian Wei told Duke Cao, presumably because he was worried that the Mandarin would favor his own interests, but... Cao With a swipe of your pen, let the Tiger Guards follow orders and send you to the prison of Dali Temple!"

"Oh?" Ning Rong raised his expression, and then said, "Needless to say, even if this Man Wei can survive, half of his life is gone!"

"Hey! Fifty Army Gun's killing power stick, skin and flesh were bruised, half life was almost handed over to Dali Temple!"

Thinking of that scene, Zhou Cang still feels inspired. The execution that day was carried out in front of his fathers and villagers. From the beginning to the end, Man Chong had a black face. It is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Chapter 438 Cao Cao's Visit

Ning Rong waved his hand to let Zhou Cang go out first, but he himself let out a long sigh of relief, leaned back in the grand teacher's chair, curled up in a ball, closed his eyes and meditated for a while, only feeling sleepy and heavy in his eyes , People whose eyelids are pressed down like Mount Tai can't open their eyes.

Li Ning looked at the drowsy young master, with a slight gasp in his nasal cavity, a distressed expression on his face, and carefully cleaned up the mess on the table.

This was supposed to be cleaned up by the servant girls, but Li Ning was worried that those clumsy maids would make too much noise and disturb Ning Rong's rest, so he did it himself.

"Butler Li, what's the matter, young master?" Zhou Cang asked casually while helping to open the door outside.

"Shh..."
