The commercial land is different from Jiangcheng, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, in the middle is a Luoshui running through, Jiu Ge and Xu You take the mountain road, when the road is difficult to walk, the two of them dismount and walk slowly, along the way, you can often see some people who are collecting firewood hunched and staggering by, their faces are peaceful and calm.

Jiu Ge looked at Xu You: "How far is it from the commercial land?"

"Come on, go a little further past the cave in front of you and you will reach the city gate. Xu You said and glanced at Jiu Ge: "Xia is tired of joining the army, why don't we rest for a while and then leave?"

"No, since you are almost at the city gate, let's go into the city and rest. ”

"That's fine, when you get past the cave, the road will be easy to walk. After Xu You finished speaking, he unconsciously touched his little black: "When you get to the commercial land, I will treat you well." ”

Jiu Ge smiled slightly: "It seems that the relationship between the two of you is really good." ”

"That's not it, all these years, no matter where I go, Xiao Hei has been with me, and in my opinion, it is half of my family. ”

"Half a family?" Jiu Ge seemed a little stunned, to her, the feeling of family seemed to be a long time ago.

"yes. Xu You couldn't help but sigh lightly: "My father and mother went early, I was fostered in my uncle's house since I was a child, the conditions of the uncle's family are not good, and I have many children to support, and my aunt thinks I am a burden, so she messes with my uncle all day long, and the uncle is helpless, so he discusses with me whether he wants to join the army, I was fourteen years old that year, and I am not yet the age of joining the army." Saying that, Xu You took a deep breath,

"But I didn't want to see my aunt's face anymore, so I lied about my age and mixed into the army, and was later discovered by Captain Xiao, who is now General Xiao, he saw that I was pitiful, so he stayed with me, and later rewarded me Xiao Hei, so in the entire army, General Xiao and Xiao Hei are my family. ”

"Then did you go home to see your uncle again?"

"No more. Xu You shook his head: "I don't want to embarrass him anymore, and after so many years, my aunt's face full of disgust has always made me resist stepping into the so-called house." ”

Jiu Ge nodded clearly: "Since you don't want to, you don't need to force yourself, everyone has their own way to go, let him go in the past." ”

Xu You looked at Jiu Ge unconsciously when he heard this: "Does Xia join the army have a family?"

Jiu Ge shook his head: "No, I don't even know who I am, and I'm more miserable than you." ”

Xu You seemed to be stunned, then scratched his head and didn't say anything more.

Jiu Ge suddenly raised his finger and pointed forward: "Is that the stone cave you are talking about?"

Xu You hurriedly looked at it, and then said with a happy face: "It's there, talking all the way, walking is fast." ”

Jiu Ge looked from a distance that this stone cave was made of natural stones, but it didn't look like it was made by man, so he asked Xu You: "How did this stone cave come about?"

"Landslides. Xu You replied: "Originally, this was the city gate of the commercial land, after the disaster, the soldiers who defended the city moved the city gate back for twenty miles, and there is the current city gate, and this place is also covered by mountain stones, because of the original city gate structure, a stone cave was formed in the middle, and then after later repair, sorting, there is a stone cave in front of you. ”

Jiu Ge nodded slightly when he heard this, in the face of nature, manpower is always insignificant, even in modern society a few years later, it can only be taken precautions.

After the stone cave, the road surface really became open, and tea houses, vendors, and pedestrians gradually appeared on the roadside.

The officials guarding the city read the customs clearance documents handed over by Xu You, and hurriedly let the two of Jiu Ge in, Jiu Ge led the horse to look all the way, and found that the liveliness here seemed to be no less than that of Jiang Cheng, who was the royal city, Xu You followed from behind:

"After this long street, turn left and there is the Shang Fu, where we can rest for a day and collect the accounts tomorrow. ”

"Shangfu?" Jiu Ge looked at Xu You curiously: "Why is it called that?"

"Originally, it was called Yefu, but later the Ye family declined, and the king took back the fief, so he changed the name to Shangfu according to the name of the fief, which has been used to this day. ”

"I see that the prosperity here is on par with Jiangcheng, and I think that the Yicheng that I have taken here is a piece of fertile land. ”

"Xia joined the army and didn't know, this Yunyuan was not what it is now when it was first taken, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, only a Luoshui runs through it in the middle, if it is used as a border defense area, this is an excellent place, but if you want to live and work in peace and contentment, it is a little stretched here. Xu You said and looked at Jiu Ge:

"I heard General Xiao say that the people here originally relied on chopping firewood and fishing for a living, and after General Ye took Yunyuan, he began to build water conservancy, widen the river, introduce a variety of saplings from China, and plant seeds of grain crops here, encourage farmers to reclaim wasteland, and teach women to spin and weave...... In this way, this place gradually got rid of the poverty of the past and began to be lively, so to this day, there is still an ancestral hall of General Ye here, and someone specially takes care of it. ”

Hearing this, Jiu Ge exclaimed unconsciously: "In this way, General Ye is indeed far-sighted and has made great contributions to the people. ”

"It's a pity that God is jealous of talents, and General Ye, who has always been invincible, died unexpectedly in a small battle, which is really regrettable. Saying that, Xu You couldn't help but take the reins: "Xia joins the army, the Shang Mansion has arrived, you go to the mansion to rest first, and your subordinates will make arrangements." ”

Jiu Ge glanced up, and the two big golden characters of the Shang Mansion were printed in his eyes, perhaps because of the long time, it looked like there were some vicissitudes. Jiu Ge dismounted and handed the reins to Xu You, and at this time, someone in the house greeted him.

"Little Qian Gui has seen Lord Xu. ”

Xu You handed over the horses to the doorman on the side, and turned to Qian Gui and said: "This is Xia Joining, I need to live in the mansion these days, you can arrange it." ”

Hearing this, Qian Gui hurriedly bowed to Jiu Ge and said, "The little one has seen Lord Xia, the big one, please follow the little one into the mansion to rest first." ”

Jiu Ge nodded slightly, and followed Qian Gui into the mansion.

"The small one is the housekeeper here, Lord Xia is the first time to enter the mansion, if there is any need, just mention it to the small one. Qian Gui said and motioned Jiu Ge to turn left: "The little one has been waiting in the mansion for many years, from General Ye, to General Ji, and now, everything in the mansion is placed according to the way it was when the mansion was opened, and there has been no major change." ”

"So, you've been in this mansion since General Ye?" Jiu Ge looked at Qian Gui with some surprise, this looked like he was a little younger.

"Exactly. The cash cabinet arched his hand and said: "It's just that the housekeeper at that time was my father, I grew up in the house with my father since I was a child, and after my father went, I became the housekeeper here." ”

"I see. Jiu Ge said clearly: "It seems that Steward Qian is an old man here." ”
