Chapter 114: Eight Hundred Miles Urgent

Qi Gu and Qi Laoniu went back to Qijiazhuang, and finally called Qi Jinzhi and his sister-in-law and sister-in-law to live in the Qi family's house.

The Qi family's more than 100 acres of crop land were also rented out to Wang Sheng's family in the same village, explaining how much wheat was handed over to the Qi family in a year for one acre of land, and the rest was owned by Wang Sheng's family.

Speaking of which, there are many people who want to rent the land of the Qi family, and in the end, Qi Laoniu feels that Wang Sheng's family is honest and will also serve the crops, plus Wang Sheng and Qi Laoniu are very good first, when they did not marry a daughter-in-law, they called brothers and sisters all day long, and then they became families, and they did not break off contacts, and he was willing to help the Qi family if there was anything, and now Wang Sheng's family is not having a good time, and Qi Laoniu is also willing to help.

Seeing that Wang Sheng's family rents the land of the Qi family, but every year, except for the grain given to the Qi family, the rest is more cost-effective than their own land.

Without it, Qi Jing is now in the middle of the move, the family's crops do not have to pay taxes, and Wang Sheng's family naturally does not have to pay taxes for renting seeds, and the grain handed over to the Qi family is much less than paying taxes.

When Qi Laoniu rented the land to Wang Sheng's family, Wang Sheng was so happy that he specially took chickens and ducks and sent them to Qi's family to express his gratitude, and said that he would give the best to the Qi family after receiving grain every year, and made many promises.

Qi Laoniu didn't care much about it, anyway, Qi Jinzhi and his family lived with their family, whether it was good or not, these two people were not stupid, and they couldn't see anything.

In addition to the grain land, the remaining flower fields were handed over to Qi Jinzhi to take care of, and it was made clear that half of Qi Jinzhi could be kept every year, and the remaining half would be exchanged for silver and saved.

Qi Jinzhi happily agreed. It was Zhou Hongwen who felt that he was so stained with the light of the Qi family, and he was a little suspicious of taking advantage, so he refused a lot, and in the end, Qi Laoniu pulled down his face and reprimanded him, so he didn't say anything.

When Qi Gu and Qi Laoniu returned to their hometown, Yun Yao and Qi Jing were also discussing how to go to Chang'an.

Qi Jing means to buy a car, the Qi family now has two ox carts, one is reserved for Qi Jinzhi, and the rest is to pull things to Chang'an.

In addition to the ox cart, there are also several horses brought by Yinzhu and copper locks, Qi Jing means that this horse can also pull the cart. When the time comes, buy a few cars and put them on the horse and go. In addition, the family has a large population, and there is naturally a lot of luggage, and it is necessary to buy a four-ox van to pull it out.

Yun Yao calculated. I went to the market with Qi Jing to take a look. In the end, it was decided to buy three cars and put them on the horse. In addition, buy a four-ox van and four oxen, and the remaining horses can be pulled in rotation or whoever wants to ride it.

I counted the money in the family again. Yun Yao felt that it was not enough, and she was going to Chang'an, and the shops here in Fucheng would have to leave a lot of inventory.

For this reason, Yun Yao began to close her door, and spent all day in the studio making jewelry or embroidery, occasionally making some delicate objects, and getting a batch of important parts on the fan, so that after half a month, the workshop was full of her works.

After getting the things that should be done, Yun Yao asked Xue Manjin to call a few of the guys in the master to pull the cart and dump all the things into the shop, and then saw the shopkeeper's record on the books, so he was relieved.

After another half a month, the Qi family's preparations were done, Yun Yao discussed with Mrs. Guan San, put the account of this period of time, and paid her dividends from the book and prepared to go.

The family got up early in the morning, had breakfast and started loading.

Qi Gu and Qi Laoniu have lived in Lotus Town all their lives, and they have a headache when they say that they are far away, and they are reluctant in their hearts.

But Yinzhu was a few small ones who were elated, chattering non-stop while loading the car, discussing what the little ladies in Chang'an City looked like for a while, and saying how high the walls of Chang'an City were, how wide the streets were, and what to eat in Chang'an City.

Before the things were packed up, Qi Jinzhi's family rushed to see them off.

This family is also neat characters, come to help load the car, first put Qi Jing's books into boxes and load them into a car, in addition to the books on the car and some clothes and supplies of Qi Jing and Yun Yao, the rest of the things are loaded on the four-cow carriage, Yun Yao asked Sister-in-law Liu to make some food and put it on the car, and arranged for Sister-in-law Liu to sit in a car with Peony and Peony, Song Xi to sit in the four-cow carriage, Yun Yao and Qi Jing and Yinzhu in a car, Qi Lao Niu and the old couple and Tongsuo in a car, Sibao in a car.

In addition to these people, there is also a coachman that Yun Yao specially bought from the human market, naturally, these people don't have to take a car, they only need to catch the car during the day, and they also sleep in the inn with the Qi family at night.

In order to save manpower and not waste money, Qi Jing and Yun Yao bought a coachman to pick up those who had other crafts, such as one coachman who could do carpenter work, another who worked as a mason, another who could burn porcelain, and the other two would plant flowers.

Yun Yao thought that the house she bought in Chang'an was big, and she would inevitably have to add people after she passed, and these coachmen would catch a car on the road, and when they went to Chang'an, they could also take care of the family and nursing home and do some work within their ability, which was not expensive.

If it weren't for the fear that there would be too many people on the road and it would be difficult to walk, Yun Yao might have to buy more people on the side of Zhenting Mansion, after all, Chang'an City is much more expensive than Zhenting Mansion even if it is bought by people.

After loading the car and saying goodbye to Qi Jinzhi and the others, more than a dozen members of the Qi family got into the carriage and hurried away in Qi Jinzhi's tearful eyes.

On the first day, I went out of Zhenfu Mansion and walked westward for about 50 miles, and the sky was dark, and I happened to run into a small town, and the group found a clean inn in the town to stay.

I didn't say anything for a night, continued on the road on the second day, got up early and hurried, and when I rested and ate on the side of the road at noon, I watched a few fast horses run by on the official road, and the knight who was wearing official clothes immediately ran and said: "Six hundred miles urgent, get out of the way, six hundred miles urgent, get out of the way quickly......"

The horses went straight into the post station, and after a while, a few more horses came out of the post station and hurried away.

"Six hundred miles expedited?" Qi Jing took the flatbread in his hand and rolled the sauce and meat and was eating it, looking at this scene and couldn't help frowning. Looking at the horseshoe prints on the road, and then thinking about the direction where those knights came, he said angrily: "I'm afraid that something happened to Beiliang again, and I'm afraid that there will be disputes at the border pass again." ”

"Our Great Zhou Dynasty is too cowardly, when today's son blindly only knows how to enjoy himself, resulting in the slack of military equipment at the border pass, so that Beiliang took advantage of the weakness to enter and seize several of our cities, in order to calm down the dry fighting, this son of heaven even doesn't want face, and he pays tribute every year. Every year, there are countless beauties and silver coins given to Beiliang. His Majesty didn't feel ashamed at all, it was really ......"

Yinzhu gritted his teeth and clenched his fists hatefully and cursed a few words.

"Don't talk about state affairs, don't talk about state affairs." Qi Laoniu stuffed a piece of cake into Yinzhu's mouth and blocked her words: "Those things are all Your Majesty and the officials, and it's none of our business." ”

Yinzhu wanted to say something. But seeing Qi Laoniu's warning eyes, he swallowed all the words. But. The anger on her face did not subside, and at a glance she knew that she was very dissatisfied with the day.

Yun Yao looked at Yinzhu and then at Qi Jing, and added some hot soup to the two of them with a smile. He handed him a handkerchief and told him to wipe his sweat, but he didn't say anything else.

After eating, he continued on the road, and after walking for a while, he arrived at the post station, Qi Jing asked the car to stop, and he went down to ask in person, and after coming back and getting in the car, he looked sullen.

Yun Yao saw that he was unhappy and asked, "Is it the six-hundred-mile urgent thing?" ”

Qi Jing nodded: "Emperor Beiliang dislikes the beauties we gave last year, and this year he even asked His Majesty to pay a few stunning beauties, and in addition, he asked for a thousand horses of silk and an extra 200,000 yuan." ”

Speaking of this, Qi Jing sighed again: "In this way, I'm afraid that the common people will suffer again, and I don't know whose girl was selected to be sent to Beiliang to suffer." ”

Yun Yao had never seen such a thing, nor had she experienced it in the interstellar era, and she didn't praise it, so she could only comfort Qi Jing and want to open it up, anyway, don't think about it if it's not about her own family, think too much or be bored by herself.

In fact, Yun Yao looked down on Emperor Chengping of the current Great Zhou Dynasty from the bottom of his heart, and always felt that this Emperor Chengping only cared about his own enjoyment, put the country in the back of his mind, and it was really undesirable to care about the life and death of the people.

The first thing an emperor should think of is his family and country, for the peace of the world, for the peace of the world, for the thousands of people, put his own rights and interests to the end, just like the commander of the empire in the interstellar age, work hard for the dignity of the country, and fight for the happiness of the people.

But Emperor Chengping, put the country in such a humiliating situation, trampled on the soles of a country's people, made the people have no dignity, made the country bend its backbone, and even he himself could grovel to others, such an emperor should not be an emperor, and even an ordinary person is not qualified.

Although she thought so, Yun Yao knew that this kind of thing could not be spoken.

People in this era have a stubborn idea of loyalty to the king, that is, no matter what is wrong with the Son of Heaven, he must not resist, and if he hears someone accusing the Son of Heaven, he will definitely attack him in groups.

Yun Yao didn't understand this kind of thinking, but in this era, she couldn't be too surprising and make people feel xenophobic about her.

Holding Qi Jing's hand, Yun Yao smiled: "Don't think about that, you can't do anything if you think about it, when you are admitted to the Jinshi and become an official in the future, if it is within the scope of your duties, wouldn't it be better for you to think about it." ”

Yinzhu also followed suit, and the anger on Qi Jing's face subsided.

The group walked a little longer, and when they saw that another 800 miles were chasing after them, they hurriedly parked the car on the side of the road and called the errand to go first.

The messenger must have been exhausted, and the horse ran to the Qi family's convoy, but the messenger didn't notice it for a while, and actually fell off the horse.

Qi Jing happened to see it, and hurriedly called someone to help him up, Qi Jing got out of the car again to take a look, and when he saw the face of the officer, the whole person was startled.

When Yun Yao and Yinzhu opened the curtain of the car to look, they happened to hear Qi Jing ask the errand officer, "What happened to this eldest brother?" You, what are you crying about? ”

Yinzhu jumped out of the car in a hurry and went over to ask.

The errand officer tightened the paperwork on his back, and at the same time led the Qi family coachman to help the chasing horse jump on the horse's back, and cried: "Bian Guan sent an urgent letter, two years ago, he and Princess Pingyang, who was pro-Beiliang, called the Beiliang people to kill. ”

"What?" Qi Jing and Yinzhu changed color together, and the teeth of both of them rattled.

Qi Jing helped the errand officer to the horse with his hand: "Big brother, let's hurry up and send the letter, don't delay the hour." ”

The messenger wiped his tears and whipped the horse to move quickly, and disappeared in an instant, Qi Jing and Yinzhu saw him leave, and got into the carriage with gloomy faces.

Yun Yao also listened to the words of the officer, and the look on her face was a little bad, and after Qi Jing and Yinzhu got into the car, Yun Yao urged the coachman to hurry up, and after that, the three of them sat in the carriage and were silent, and no one spoke anymore.

Yun Yao also made up a lot of knowledge of the Great Zhou Dynasty during this time, and knew which princess Pingyang was talking about.

Although Emperor Chengping is not in tune, his fertility is really strong, he has more than 20 sons alone, and although there are not as many daughters as sons, there are as many as eight or nine.

Princess Chengping and the current Twelve Princes are siblings of the same mother, and the two are still a pair of dragon and phoenix twins.

It stands to reason that this dragon and phoenix fetus is a good omen, it can be called auspicious, especially the royal dragon and phoenix fetus is scarce and tight, Emperor Chengping should be very rare, but Princess Pingyang and the twelve princes were born to be disliked by Emperor Chengping, and when the two grew up to fourteen years old, it happened that Emperor Beiliang wanted Da Zhou to send the princess and relatives, Emperor Chengping ordered Princess Pingyang and pro-Beiliang, this is several years, I heard that Princess Pingyang is not very good in Beiliang.

It's just that from Emperor Chengping to the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, no one thought that Princess Pingyang would say that it would be gone, and it was killed by Emperor Beiliang.

Such a delicate nephrite-like daughter's family, the golden branches and jade leaves from the royal family are trampled on by Beiliang like this, and they will be killed if they say they will be killed, which is really a great shame for the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and any Great Zhou people will feel sad and angry.
