Chapter 279: Leaving Anzhou City
After so many years, she still looks like she does her own thing, and anyone will have ideas when she sees them, but her master has never taken unimportant people in his eyes, so how can he care about other people's thoughts.
The next day, the sky was just dark, July and his party had already packed up, the two carriages, both were the most ordinary ebony green curtains, only the road near Anshui County was the most rugged and difficult to walk, the rest of the road, Ah Shi could drive by himself, a carriage seemed very crowded, last night, Twilight went to buy a carriage.
"Let's return the house first, I don't know what year and month it is when I go back to Anzhou City again, don't forget to thank the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper has helped us a lot these days!" In July, the lips opened slightly, and the crisp voice was like a breeze.
The carriage has been set up, and the handlebar style found has been waiting outside the inn, just waiting for July to get on the car, and you can leave the brightly lit city of Anzhou.
"Ah Shi, since you have thought about it, there is no room for regret, did you see that carriage? You and Xi Mu just use that car, I don't know how many tribulations and twists and turns along the way, Miss Ben finally asked you again, do you really regret it? July turned to look at Ah Shi with a condensed expression, there were some things she had to say clearly, she didn't want a retreater to appear halfway through.
Ah Shi's eyes were firm, and he nodded deeply: "Miss, Ah Shi has already thought about it, Ah Shi is alone, and it is already Ah Shi's greatest honor to be valued by Miss, since Ah Shi has come today, Ah Shi will never regret it." ”
Looking at Ah Shi's determination, a smile was added to July's peach-like face, like a dazzling star in the night sky, flashing everyone's eyes.
Ah Shi is the person that July values, and it is also the person she insists on bringing with her, he has such an idea, July is the most proud in his heart, it can be seen that her vision is still good.
"Okay, in that case, let's get in the car, it's not early, we rushed to the next town before the sun sets, Anzhou City is not familiar to us, it's best not to spend the night in the wilderness." July got into the carriage on her own, and she was more worried about whether she would be able to get to a crowded place tonight.
In a place where people are not familiar with life, the caution and caution in July's bones began to haunt again, not to mention that Anzhou City is a city that belongs to the northwest borderland, and the northwest has always been a place where barbarians live, and bandits are the top priority.
"Okay, let's hurry up on the road, Miss is right, this Anzhou City is not very peaceful, from Anzhou City to Anshui County on the way is a mountain is higher than a mountain, this thing, who can say it clearly, we have always had a consensus between the handlebars, as long as it is dark, no matter how urgent, we will not rush to the night." The handlebar type, who had been silent, heard July's words and said very approvingly, although he took the car, but he also has his own principles, since the employer has such an idea, how can he disagree!
The bandits in the northwest of Jin State are the most serious, and they are also the most headache for the one in the Qiankun Palace, and the countless bandits of the imperial court have been suppressed countless times, but in the end they are empty, and the bandits in the northwest are even more ferocious.
Along the way, the lights are brilliant, Anzhou City is already lively, the morning market has been noisy and crowded, and the vendors who are selling are countless, and the heart of July has finally returned to peace with the sound of the distance, and this Anzhou City may live up to the meeting in this life.
The willows on the two embankments, she has never seen a goose-yellow mist shrouded in the willows, the river is sparkling, the moonlight is sultry, when will such Anzhou City be seen.
"That is, jade, you say, whether we can still see the verdant appearance of the two embankments and willows in Anzhou City, I don't know what year and month it is." Looking at the river embankment that is getting farther and farther away and the willow branches that are already shining with light, July has infinite emotion in his heart.
I can't help but think of the Yangmingshan in the Tang Dynasty thousands of miles away, as well as the mausoleum on that side, the years and the dynasty, and I don't know when we met, those people in their hearts who are far away in the homeland, whether they are safe as before, she always has infinite thoughts.
"Miss, there will always be a chance, the coming day will be long, this Anzhou City will not disappear in Jinxi, these two embankments and willow banks are always waiting for Miss." That is, the jade put on a moon-white cloak for July, and a few yellow plums were embroidered under the cloak, and the goose-yellow plum rui was embellished with the cloak, which was more noble and elegant.
Out of the city gate, a piece of white vast, looking at the mountains and mountains are covered with snow, the mountainside seems to be thousands of trees and pear blossoms, the snow-white pear stamen is waiting to be released, is telling her spring.
"Are you out of town? How far are we from the next town? July asked softly while holding the small stove, playing with the stove in his hand with his ten fingers.
That is, the silver silk charcoal stove that Yu had prepared early, she also knew that it was cold on the way, maybe there was snow, and her master was very cold, so she naturally didn't want to watch her master catch a cold.
The mountains and rivers are long along the way, and it will take half a month from Anzhou City to Anshui County at the earliest, so she naturally has to be ready before she dares to set off, otherwise she will definitely not be able to survive on the road.
"Yes, just out of Anzhou City, the slave still remembers that we just arrived in Anzhou City, we were almost stopped outside the city gate, fortunately we did not delay at that time, I heard that Anzhou City all the way west to Changshui County in a day's journey, tonight we will rest in Changshui County." Jiyu also inquired about the journey from Anzhou City to Anshui County, and knew that the closest to Anzhou City on the way to Anshui County was Changshui County.
The carriage swayed along the way, the rugged mountain road was bumpy, from the time the sky was dark until the sun just fell on the roof of the carriage, the two carriages never stopped for a morning, and the endless winding path was entrenched at the foot of the mountain.
There was silence all around, not even the sound of insects and birds was heard, only the white snow waited silently around them, and the somewhat messy rut marks left by the two carriages were of different shades, but they were as fresh as one.
"This northwest is worthy of being a military city, Anzhou City is in the overlapping mountains continuously, such a dangerous terrain, has always been a place where soldiers must fight, this heavy mountain is the largest natural barrier in Anzhou City, but the bandit is a knife hanging on the head." July muttered softly, the northwest has always been an important place, and she has also seen records about the northwest of the Jin country from some of Tang Duan's secretaries.
She vaguely remembered that two hundred years ago, there was a great general in the Tang Dynasty who was invincible, brave and strategic, and his ability to strategize made the Quartet countries terrified, and that one of the generals left a fragment of a book, which was about the strategy of war, and now it is still in the dowry box of the Qingyue platform, which mentions the northwest of the Jin State, saying that as long as the northwest of the Jin State is broken, half of the Jin State will be mastered.
When she saw that book before, she didn't believe it at all, but when she arrived in Anzhou City and saw the terrain outside Anzhou City, she knew that the book might be the key to breaking the northwest border.
"Miss, the northwest is not better than Jin Bei, Jin Bei has nothing to defend except for the river that crosses Jin Bei, Jin Bei is a dangerous place, the easiest to be breached, and Anzhou City is different, Anzhou City is surrounded by countless mountains, even if the bandits are serious, it is also for Anzhou City to resist the pace of foreign invasion." That is, Yu said lightly, she also knew the difference between the northwest and Jin Bei, and also understood that the northwest was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The master and servant ate some snacks in the carriage and filled their stomachs, and they would be in the carriage all day today, except for snacks and dry food, they didn't think about the rest.
"Miss, the snacks are still warm, you fill your stomach first, there is still an afternoon, you can only go to Changshui County tonight, and it will be good to wait until you get to the county seat." That is, Yu's plain hand holds a snack and persuades July to eat a little, and it is also good to fill the stomach.
No matter how bitter Jiyu was, she didn't even blink her eyes, she simply closed her bright eyes and pretended to sleep, no matter what Jiyu said beside her, she didn't care about that stubble.
"Miss"
"Miss"
As she approached July, she called out twice in her ears, her eyes still closed, like a crescent moon embedded under the sword eyebrows, and her thick and slender eyelashes floated like arched bridges on the crescent.
The delicate small and delicate nose is upright, the tip of the nose is slightly pink, the breath is slow and peaceful, and the white skin of a palm-sized face is faintly pink.
July seemed to vaguely hear someone calling her, but in her sleep, she didn't want to bother with those things at all, no matter who it was, she didn't want to pay attention to it.
Seeing that his master was already asleep, that is, Yu unconsciously controlled his voice, and even the sound of breathing was cautious, for fear of waking up the person who was sleeping soundly.
Looking at July's quiet sleeping face, that is, Yu's thoughts flew to a long time ago, that stubborn little face coincided with the current tranquility, at that time, she was still a stubborn and stubborn little girl, no matter who she was, always a wary look, after being by her side for a long time, I hope that she has the same joys, sorrows, and sorrows as ordinary people, and lives freely and freely.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the carriage was gradually slowing down, and the crescent moon, which was exactly the same as yesterday, had climbed into the sky, hanging upright, and the hazy light of the moon stained the whole gradually covered night.
"Miss, it's almost here, wake up first, it's already dark, we're on the night road now!" Jiyu watched the night fall and hurriedly woke up July, the night came, all the unknowns came, she felt that it was the best thing to wake up her master.
After all, Ah Shi didn't mention it once, how dangerous it was to walk at night in Anzhou City, she kept it in mind all the time, and as soon as the night darkened, she immediately tensed.
"What, it's already dark? How long have I been asleep? Hasn't Changshui County arrived yet? July asked, yawning, with a flurry of questions in his mind.
