Chapter 351: Someone from My Family (I)
Two weeks after Xia Fan and the five people disappeared, two fast horses carried the knights on their horses to the outside of the city walls of the Dongshan County Palace.
Although there is a huge gap with Kyoto Prefecture, after all, it is the capital of a county, and Dongshan County is the only county territory in the entire Daqian Dynasty that does not border with other countries.
Therefore, outside the city walls of the capital of Dongshan County, it has been very lively for many years.
The two fast horses did not have the slightest intention of slowing down after arriving outside the city walls of the county capital of Dongshan County, and they did not pay attention to the people who were waiting in line outside the city gate to enter the city, but rode directly to the city gate, and without even getting off the horse, they took out a waist card from their arms and threw it to the one who looked to be the leader among the guards in front of the city gate.
The leader had an angry look on his face when he saw the two fast horses rushing straight to the front without any rudeness.
But when he took the waist card thrown by the other party and saw the words and patterns on it clearly, the anger on his face disappeared in an instant.
Hurriedly stepped forward respectfully, handed the waist card back to the knight who had not dismounted with both hands, and then laughed, waved his hand to let the guards get out of the way, and watched the two knights ride into the county mansion, and the leader breathed a sigh of relief.
The people who lined up in a long queue to enter the city did not show any dissatisfaction with this, but they asked each other curiously about what the two knights were.
Although the two knights are equivalent to cutting in line, but a waist card can scare the doorkeeper, obviously not small, this kind of prominent figure, even if it is inserted in the line, what can it be?
So the people in line are just curious.
"Head, what is the origin of those two?"
As the two knights entered the city and disappeared in a blink of an eye, several guards approached the leader's side and asked in a whisper of curiosity.
"Kyoto Prefecture, Xia Family."
The leader lowered his voice and said.
Several doormen froze, then gasped at the same time, did not dare to ask any more questions, and returned to their positions on duty.
Such a reaction naturally made those in line more curious.
"Although this Dongshan County is remote, the prosperity in the county is not much different from that of Kyoto Prefecture, at least it can be seen, unlike the previous Qingyang City, which looks like a rural place. The area of the city is not small, but the construction in the city is so bad. ”
The younger of the two knights spoke.
The two fast horses slowed down when they entered the county, because the streets of the county were also crowded, and if they continued to gallop, they would inevitably cause trouble.
Although these two knights were from the Natsu family in Kyoto Prefecture and were born with a bit of arrogance peculiar to the people of the capital, they also knew that there were many things to avoid when walking outside.
The strong dragon can't suppress the head snake, not to mention that in the territory of the Daqian Dynasty, once something happens to the people, it will often be caught and dealt with strictly.
At that time, the Tiangao Emperor of Dongshan County was far away, and even if the knights on the two horses suffered hardship, they would have nowhere to reason.
The Xia family in Kyoto Prefecture is naturally a noble and abnormal family, but no matter how prestigious it is, it is impossible to have a strong influence on every county of the Daqian Dynasty after all.
Therefore, although the speed of the two of them on horseback was completely slowed down due to the crowd of people after entering the city, the two did not feel any anxiety because of this.
"Of the eight counties of the dynasty, Dongshan County will always take the least of the usual silver allocated from the capital. Since it did not share borders with other countries and had never suffered from any wars since the establishment of the dynasty, Dongshan County not only received the least amount of silver taels from the capital, but also often needed to use a considerable part of its own taxes to support the other seven counties. As a result, Dongsan County also has far less money to maintain infrastructure and other development than the other seven counties. After years of saving, the development of most of the cities in the county cannot be compared with the other seven counties. “
The older knight explained softly.
The two of them were sent by the Xia family of Kyoto Prefecture to contact the Xia family in Qingyang City, and the purpose was naturally for Ye Yi.
It's just that because the journey from the capital to Dongshan County is too long, even if the two of them are fast horses, it also takes a lot of time on the road, so it wasn't until a few days ago that the two finally arrived in Qingyang City.
As a result, the news I got was that the Xia family in Qingyang City had moved to the county seat of Dongshan County...... Those who remained in Qingyang City were only a small number of the old, weak, sick and disabled who were used to maintain those businesses in Qingyang City.
So much so that the two of them were a little dumbfounded on the spot, but the errand still had to be done, and this errand was extremely important to the family, and there could be no mistakes.
So the two of them had no choice, so they galloped out of Qingyang City overnight, and after a few days, they came to the county town.
Along the way, I ate and slept in the open, and I really suffered a lot.
It's no wonder that the young knights have an impatient look, with their identity, although they are just ordinary generals in the Xia family in Kyoto Prefecture, even if their daily life is not a lot of wine, they are definitely comfortable and comfortable, and of course they will not be treated to this kind of drudgery.
"Hmph, I can be regarded as finding a place, and I found the location of the branch family for a while, let's finish the errand as soon as possible, and then go to the best building in this county town, have a good time, little brother, I have a treat!" Let's taste this woman in Dongshan County, what it's like. ”
The young knight said with an unhappy expression.
"Even if it's going to disappoint you, this Dongshan County has never been war-free, and it is the least valued among the eight counties of the dynasty, so anyone who has some ability will want to run outside, even the girl in the flower building. Even if this is the county seat, even if you find the best flower building here, it is estimated that you can't see a few that can really make people's hearts move. ”
The older knight said with a smile.
"It's better than nothing, in order to get an errand done as soon as possible, I haven't touched a woman along the way, but it really suffocated me."
The young knight muttered.
Young people are full of enthusiasm and have a lot of needs in that area, and the older knights naturally don't say much.
The two of them asked around from time to time in this crowd, and it didn't take long to find the family house that the Xia family in Qingyang City had purchased in Dongshan County.
Looking at the two big words 'Xia Fu' hanging on the door of the house, the two knights breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and then walked forward and knocked on the door vigorously
