Chapter 37: Danger on the Way Home (1)
Na Ding Si'er was quite proud, and stepped forward, "The lady doesn't recognize me?" But I knew the woman's voice. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ He looked around, saw that she was alone, and said strangely: "Why is the lady here alone?" Pyongyang county magistrates and their entourage, don't you have to come to the office? β
Feng Ling was thinking in his heart about how to answer him, and two people came out of the house of Hu Cao Yamen, a short and fat one in front of him was about a record room, holding a pen and paper in his hand to count the number of soldiers, and shouted loudly as he walked: "Where are the Tang soldiers who went to Shazhou?" β
The figure behind him was very good, even if he was not wearing an inch of armor, he could tell that he was a military attachΓ©, and when the soldiers of all the mansions saw him come out, they all retreated to both sides, and formed a team on their own, and no one laughed at the wind spirit anymore.
When the wind spirit met it head-on, he couldn't avoid it, so he had to come forward with a smile and salute, "Captain Yandu, it's a coincidence." β
Fu Tanyan raised his eyebrows, silently hugged his hand and returned the salute, without a trace of surprise on his face.
Feng Ling suddenly got up, and said with a smile on his face: "Since Captain Yan is also going back to Dunhuang, if you take me with you, Feng Ling will never cause trouble to Captain Du, and you can also do chores in the army." The road is far away, and there are many dangers, so I only ask for shelter or two from the captain. β
The soldiers on the side listened to the energy, the two thousand miles of the road, nearly half of the road is boring sand and gravel Gobi, can have such a beautiful and pleasing little lady to accompany her, even if she can't speak, every day in the eyes, hurry up and have more energy. Then someone coaxed: "The lieutenant should go down." β
Fu Yanyan glanced at the soldiers, and the coaxing immediately closed his mouth, he turned to Feng Ling and said coldly: "Gu Niangzi doesn't have to follow the Pyongyang county uncle back to secret?" β
Feng Ling's brain "buzzed" for a while, and he was speechless, and finally had to shrink his head and smile in embarrassment, it turned out that he had already recognized her on the way here, and Raushzi's hat was worn all the way in vain.
"When you came, you were the maid of the county lord of Pyongyang, and my soldiers from Shazhou should naturally take you with you." Fu Yanyan continued: "At this time, you are alone, but you are like a fugitive, if you want to mix in the government soldiers, it is inevitable that you will be suspected of abduction, how can I be a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, how can I bear this unknown suspicion?" β
"Captain Yandu, don't talk nonsense." was coldly rejected by him and returned it, but he still had a gun and a stick in his words, which was not at all as indifferent and solemn as before, how could Feng Ling not be annoyed, and sneered at each other: "I am a fugitive when I am alone, and there are lonely women and women everywhere in this market, is it possible that they are all fugitives and concubines?" β
"Captain Youhun said, just take what you came to check it out. When you don't come, you will be an official servant, and you will become a businessman after only one day, you are a businessman, you are a woman, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, you are not allowed to go on the road alone. The recorder was attracted and put aside the matter of counting the soldiers.
Feng Ling took a deep breath, suppressed the fire in his heart, and said loudly: "There are so many people today, so I will give a witness to the slaves." The slave came to the office to lead him to Shazhou, but this Lang General suspected that it was an official escape, whether it was ...... or not" She raised her hand and took out the document given to her by Mitsu from her arms, held it in the air and waved it twice, "You can see it immediately." β
As she spoke, she handed the paperwork to the bookkeeper, "I'm sorry for this official to inspect it, and if there is no doubt, please send it over." β
The notebook took the paperwork, looked at it carefully from beginning to end, and bowed his hand to Fu Yanyan: "The servant and maid have returned the paperwork, and there is the seal of the county lord of Pyongyang, please take a look at it." β
Fu Yanyan twisted his eyebrows, didn't look at the paperwork, only turned his gaze to Feng Ling, and resumed his official expression: "It's not good to run away, but it's impossible to piggyback, and it's inconvenient to have a lone woman in the army." After that, he raised his chin to the soldiers in line: "Is the record room finished?" β
The notebook suddenly remembered this, patted his head, and put away Feng Ling's paperwork, "Don't worry, this is done." β
Fu Yanyan nodded, turned and walked away, not looking at her again.
The record room will return the document to the wind spirit, and "the little lady's place will be stamped immediately." β
Feng Ling smiled again, thanked the room, and glanced back at Yan Yan, still angry in his heart.
After that, Feng Ling wandered around the market in Gaochang City for three whole days, opened the market, closed the market, and checked the usual appearance of the big shops in Xizhou and the rules of business. The merchants here are accustomed to using cloth, Sasanian silver coins, and gold coins for the settlement of goods between merchants, as well as the Kaiyuan Tongbao of the Tang Dynasty, and a small number of high-value goods are also settled in gold cakes.
I visited a few slightly larger silk silk shops, and saw that their own cloth accounted for three or four percent of the goods in these shops, all of which were sold by Xizhou merchants last year, and the color of the cloth in the store was not as colorful as their own, and the brocade was not as fine and orderly as their own, and the tentacles were not smooth enough.
Privately, she was sure that those merchants were the same as Kang Dazhi, and they received cloth for goods, because they didn't make a living from cloth, except for paying taxes, most of them were hoarded in the warehouse, and she collected all the cloth, plus her own delivery of some high-quality products, which was enough to expand her business in Xizhou.
If there are no accidents, one season's profit can be worth a year's gain in Dunhuang City.
Three days later, Fu Tanyan took the soldiers out of the city and returned to Shazhou, although Feng Ling had been informed of the day of the opening, but he did not know the time, so he explained the trivial things to the old steward of the Kang family overnight, and packed his bags. At three o'clock in the fifth watch, after the curfew, he went to the city gate and waited.
At this time, the city gate was opened, and there were not many pedestrians passing by, and hundreds of Shazhou soldiers had inspected the place at the city gate and urged the horses to go out of the city. When the wind spirit arrives at the city gate, the figure of a group of government soldiers will disappear into the dust raised on the official road.
The guards at the gate of the city inspected her place and asked, "The woman of the Tang family is alone, how can she get on the road?" β
Feng Ling raised his hand and pointed to the smoke and dust on the official road outside the city gate: "It was originally with the soldiers of Shazhou Prefecture, but I was lost for a while, I was a step late, and now I am about to catch up." β
The soldier looked her up and down suspiciously, and finally waved her away. After a long delay, the soldiers were gone.
There is only one Yiwu road between Shazhou and Xizhou on the left and right, and there is no reason to go wrong, and the wind spirit is not in a hurry at this time, and he is not in a hurry to put away the place, and the gauze wraps around his mouth and nose, and follows him unhurriedly.
When the golden red morning sun was spreading head-on, the wind spirit was already approaching the tail of the government soldiers, and a group of men and horses galloped in the wind and sand, and no one paid attention to her following behind.
At about noon, the sun in the desert in early summer was already scorching, the horse ran so much that the mouth overflowed with white foam, and people were also shaking on the horseback, and the hot sweat and cold sweat alternated **** clothes.
The ranks of the soldiers finally slowed down, and a mound of different heights and shapes appeared on the vast wasteland, casting some shadows on the ground, and sparse grass clumps crowded into the shadows.
