From the beginning of entering Ling'an County, Liaoxi County, on the way to Xiangping City, Liaodong County, Zou Yan, Lu Zhonglian and other people felt that the entire Liaodi was full of vitality, as if it had overwhelmed this warm spring.

Sometimes I ran to the waterwheel that was being erected by the river, and I felt sorry for myself;

Sometimes I saw the fields and streams, clustered around the treadmills that people used to carry water, and admired for a long time;

Even on the road, when I saw the wheelbarrow pushed by people, I got out of the car and asked endlessly, and I was amazed;

Along the way, I heard a lot of Huyi accents, but when I saw people wearing Yan costumes, working in the fields like Yan people, they were dumbfounded, this is ...... This is the "naturalization" of the people of Huyi.

……

I was especially touched by the fact that after I first came to Liaodi, when I stayed along the way, at night, as if I were in other places, everyone had to divide people to take turns to take care of everyone's belongings.

I didn't expect to see other people who also lived in the hotel, more things than themselves, and even the merchants who carried many goods, who did not send anyone to take care of the goods.

Gao Jin, a disciple of Lu Zhonglian, asked a businessman in wonder: "This brother, aren't you waiting for everyone to be afraid that the goods will be stolen?" ”

The merchant and everyone around him burst into laughter: "This gentleman, this is your first time in Liaodi, right?" ”

"Exactly". Gao Jin replied.

The merchant smiled and said, "Sir, you can rest assured. Unlike other places, you can leave your goods or belongings in the care of the shopkeeper. Here, there will be no theft, and there will be no banditry.

Since the arrival of the little prince and marquis of Liaodi, the bandits in the entire Liaodi have been swept away, the leader has been beheaded, and other bandits have caught the mining area to open mines, and the roads to be repaired, and there will be no rampant bandits in other places. “

Another merchant on the side also laughed and said: "What's more, Liaodi stipulates that merchants or travelers stay in the store, and if the items handed over to the store for custody and registration are lost, the store should accompany them."

If you do not pay compensation, you can inform the government with the custody certificate, and the government will come forward to let the store compensate you for the lost goods or items, and will give the store a penalty. ”

"I see, taught. Thank you very much for letting us know! ”

Gao Jin bowed and thanked him.

Everyone laughed and said, "Sir doesn't have to be like this, just rest in peace." ”

After hearing the news, Zou Yan, Lu Zhonglian and the others closed their eyes, thought for a long time, and then sighed.

"Brother Zou Yan, I didn't expect it! Before I came, I thought that this Liao land was a barbarian land, and I thought that Brother Xin's letter was exaggerated, but I didn't expect that the scene along the way was better than in his letter!

I waited for everyone, along the way, and saw that Liaodi was so prosperous. So unexpected! So stunning! I actually look forward to arriving in Xiangping as early as possible to see the Xiangping Academy that Brother Xin said.

Brother Zou Yan, I really didn't expect that this Liao land would be governed by this little prince for a year, and he would not close his door at night. Compared to the rest of the Qi and Yan countries we have passed, it is simply incomparable, have you ever thought about it, what does this mean? ”

Sitting in the car, listening to the emotional voice of the old friend opposite.

Zou Yan thought about it, and also said with emotion: "Brother Zhonglian, I have also been an official in Yan Country for many years, don't talk about you, even I didn't expect that Liaodi is like this now!"

When I left the Yan Kingdom, this Liao land was indeed a barbarian land, with many Hu Yi people and rampant bandits. But now that we have seen the phenomenon of the government and the people, not to mention the Yan country, even my Qi country is not as good as this Liaodi!

Look at this Liaodi, although the people are old, they are still tidy; And the complexion is yellow, and there is no shortage of food. Brother Zhonglian, you have also heard that this prosperous scene only appeared more than a year after this little prince came to this Liaodi.

Brother Zhonglian, although this Liao land may not be as rich as my Qi country, but this is also this little prince who just came here, the old man asserted that if it is five years, no, three years later, its wealth will surpass my Qi country. ”

As he spoke, Zou Yan's eyes turned red, and he said half-loudly: "Brother Zhonglian, this little prince really has the demeanor of his great-grandfather, King Zhaoxian. ”

Lu Zhonglian shook his head: "Brother Zou Yan, in my opinion, this son Ji Kang's talent is even better than that of his great-grandfather, King Zhaoxian. King Zhaoxian knew as much as he knew underground, and he would be relieved to see his grandson like this. ”

In late March, Zou Yan and Lu Zhonglian arrived at Xiangping City, and they were even more emotional when they saw that the prosperous scene of Xiangping City was better than that of other places in Liaodi.

Zou Yan and Lu Zhonglian and others decided not to go to see Gongzi Ji Kang and Jun Xiangju Xin first, and everyone went to Xiangping Academy in the east of Xiangping City to have a look.

As soon as everyone came to the foot of Xiangping Mountain, they saw a couplet engraved on the doorposts on both sides of the gate at the gate of Xiangping College: Please go another way to get promoted and make a fortune, and you should not enter this door if you are greedy for life and fear of death.

These two sentences, although simple, reveal extraordinary meanings.

Obviously, the guards of the academy were also notified, and after everyone had told the guards at the door, they were allowed to let them go, without informing the academy instructors and students to come to greet them.

As everyone walked up the stairs, the trees on both sides of the road were also green, and at a glance, the entire academy was shrouded in spring green.

After entering the academy, I suddenly heard a different singing voice in the teaching house not far away, accompanied by Zou Yan's familiar flute sound, which did not rhyme, but the vocal music was moving and surging.

There is a river in the far south, and its name is the Yangtze River;

There is a river in the far south, and its name is the Yellow River;

Although I have never seen the beauty of the Yangtze River, I often swim in the Yangtze River in my dreams;

Although I have never heard of the Yellow River, it is surging in my dreams.

……

Lu Zhonglian couldn't help but shout, and shouted: "Sir, there is the Yellow River of my Qi country in this song." Such a big spirit, actually from this far north, looking at the Central Plains from afar. ”

Gao Jin also immediately said: "Sir, this is such a big ambition, and there is also the Yangtze River of Chu State. ”

Everyone stopped, listened carefully, as if showing a picture of splendid rivers and mountains in front of them, the Yangtze River is beautiful, the Yellow River is strong, and the rivers and mountains are so magnificent and delicate! Listening, a surging feeling suddenly rose in people's hearts.

……

There is a dragon in the ancient Central Plains, and its name is Huaxia;

The ancient Central Plains is a group of people, all of whom are descendants of dragons;

I grew up under the feet of the dragon, and when I grew up, I was the descendant of the dragon;

With black eyes, black hair and yellow skin, he will always be the descendant of the dragon.

……

Somehow, when everyone heard this, they couldn't help but reddened their eyes.

Don't say that Zou Yan and Lu Zhonglian are the two of them, even the disciples who followed the two and came to Liaodi in the early stage are also the best elites of this era, and they understand the meaning of this lyric as soon as they hear it.

Yes! The seven countries of the Central Plains were in turmoil, with countless casualties. But we are all descendants of Yan and Huang, and we are all descendants of the dragon. We all have a common ancestor, and we share the same name - Huaxia.

The same is true when they hear the singing, and the crowd continues to listen.

……

A quiet night a hundred years ago, in the middle of the night on the eve of a great change;

The sound of fighting shattered the quiet night, and the war song on all sides was a sword of appeasement;

How many years the killing is still rumbling, how many years and how many years;

Dragon, dragon, you polish your eyes, forever and ever.

……

Dragon, dragon, you polish your eyes, forever and ever.

With black eyes, black hair and yellow skin, he will always be the descendant of the dragon.

Dragon, dragon, you polish your eyes, forever and ever.

With black eyes, black hair and yellow skin, he will always be the descendant of the dragon.

……

When everyone heard this, they all burst into tears and wept loudly.

Yes! It's because of the periphery weakness. For a hundred years, the princes have been in constant disputes, and countries have been at war. In the Central Plains, the people are struggling to make a living, and they are displaced, and there is no end to the end of the war. When will the Central Plains be unified? Can people live in peace and contentment?

Lu Zhonglian saw his old friend Zou Yan and everyone crying silently, wiped away the tears on his face, and shouted: "Joy is moving, singing is singing." In the future, we will also be people from this academy, and we will be people from this Liaodi. Let's go, don't look at it, go and meet our son-in-law Ji Kang. ”
