Sun Ce was two days later than originally planned and embarked on a journey to Ruyang.

But these two days were worth the money, and the craftsmen of the Wood School were amazingly efficient, and they built the first four-wheeled carriage. It's not perfect, but it's the first step. This design and Huang Yueying's original idea have changed a lot, if he hadn't read Huang Yueying's original manuscript and knew where the technical difficulties of the four-wheeled carriage were, Sun Ce would have hardly thought of any relationship between the two.

The biggest advantage of the four-wheeled carriage is not the large load, but the large space. The four wheels are easy to balance and can make the carriage longer. The balance of the two-wheeled carriage is a big problem, so the carriages of the Han Dynasty are very short, the space is cramped, except for the driver, there are not many people to sit, now the carriage can be made longer, the space is larger, and it is not a problem to hide and sleep.

Sun Ce left Wancheng in this car, accompanied by Pang Tong, as well as three hundred Yicong led by Dian Wei and five hundred guards led by Qin Mu. Pang Shanmin completed the task, returned to Yingchuan, and went to Yexian on the same road, and then parted ways. One to the north and one to the east.

After a trek of more than ten days, Sun Ce arrived in Ruyang. Yuan Quan received the news in advance and sent Lei Bo to the county border to greet her, while she herself took Yuan Heng to wait at the Guiting Pavilion in the west of Ruyang City. When Sun Ce's four-wheeled carriage came slowly and didn't stop, Yuan Heng opened his eyes, stared at the huge carriage, and exclaimed.

"What a beautiful carriage."

Yuan Quan grabbed Yuan Heng's shoulders and laughed softly: "Why, this carriage is more beautiful than your husband?" ”

Yuan Heng blushed and shook his arms around Yuan Quan's waist. "Sister, I don't follow, and you laugh at me again."

"Alright, alright, don't act like a child. I can't see your beautiful husband later, you can't be like this, you can't lose the face of our Yuan family, you know? Now we have this little capital left in our family. ”

"Oh, I see." Yuan Heng nodded sensibly, put away his smile, and pretended to be solemn and solemn, but his eyes still couldn't help but stare at the carriage, reluctant to move away. The carriage slowly stopped, the door opened, Sun Ce jumped down from inside, and as soon as he stood on the ground, he opened his arms and stretched his waist. Yuan Heng's face that had just been tensed suddenly bloomed again.

"Sister, look at him."

"What's so good-looking, it's not in shape." Yuan Quan shook his head. "If a gentleman is not heavy, he is not powerful, how can he be so frivolous. Ah Heng, you can't be spoiled by him, you will be a virtuous helper in the future, you know? ”

"Uh-huh." Yuan Heng nodded vigorously, and then raised his head again. "But sister, how can you be a good helper?"

Yuan Quan was about to explain, but Sun Ce walked over quickly, and he smiled and said, "Sister, how dare you bother to come to meet me." Hey, isn't this my little lady, it seems that she has grown taller and more beautiful, come and let her husband hug her. ”

Yuan Heng suddenly turned red with shame, turned around, hid behind Yuan Quan, and refused to come out. Sun Ce opened his arms and was about to pounce on her, but he almost even pounced on Yuan Quan. Yuan Quan lowered his face and snorted.

"General, please respect yourself."

Sun Ce laughed. "In front of others, I still pretend, in front of my sister, no matter how much I pretend, I am just selling melons, what is there to pretend. Sister, don't hold it, get in the car, I have something to tell you. Just try my new car, the latest design of Mu Xuetang, it is definitely the first car in Dahan, and it is also qualified as a dowry. ”

Yuan Quan was speechless. Sun Ce was like a stubborn stone, no matter how hard she carved, Sun Ce couldn't change his rough nature, and he went on a rampage, catching her off guard. From the meeting to the present, there is not a word that is out of line. Can a car be used as a dowry? Since it's a dowry, how can you sit all the way from Wancheng to Ruyang?

"General Sun is really thrifty, and the car he has sat in can also be used as a dowry?"

"I'll try it first, if I don't try it, how do I know if it's good?"

Yuan Quan was speechless again. Yuan Heng couldn't help but poke his head out. "Is that good?"

"Of course." Sun Ce clapped his hands and instructed Pang Tong to open the car door and show the furnishings inside. Unlike ordinary horse-drawn carriages that open the door at the back of the car, this four-wheeled vehicle opens the door from the middle, and you can see most of the equipment at a glance, and the first thing that catches the eye is the bookcase placed by the window, which is full of simple silks, and there are also a lot of piles next to it. Seeing that Sun Ce did not forget to study and work during the trip, Yuan Quan's displeasure faded a little, and he pulled Yuan Heng to the front of the car, looked twice, but did not get into the car.

"Can you read and write in this car?"

"It's okay when you stop, but when you're in a hurry, you can barely read, you can't write, and it's still a little bumpy. But this road is okay, it's not too bumpy, and it's much stronger than Wuguan Road. Sister don't get in the car to try? I really have something to tell my sister not to be funny with you. ”

"What do you have to say in the car?"

Sun Ce suddenly smiled, turned around and said, "Shiyuan, you come down." ”

Pang Tong got out of the car, and Sun Ce said to Yuan Heng: "Madam, you get in the car, I will say a few words to my sister." ”

Yuan Heng blushed, very embarrassed, but couldn't suppress his curiosity, and glanced at Yuan Quan timidly. Yuan Quan had no choice but to order. Yuan Heng was overjoyed, jumped into the car, and looked around excitedly. Sun Ce closed the door, sent Yuan Quan to her own car, and ordered someone to lead his mount, the Qinghai Cheng sent by Qin Mu. When Yuan Quan saw it, he hurriedly said: "General Sun, you can also get in the car, how can I make you a squire knight." ”

"It doesn't matter, I actually like to ride horses." Sun Ce turned over and got on the horse, raised his eyebrows proudly, and said as if offering a treasure: "How is my Qinghai horse?" The authentic Liangzhou horse is fast, strong, and very stable, and it is no problem to carry two people. ”

Yuan Quan lowered his head, his brain hurt a little. Why is it so hard to talk to this person, can you still talk well?

"General, let's get down to business."

"Oh." Sun Ce patted his head. "Seriously, I'm in trouble. Hey, look at me, I only care about talking to my sister, but I forget about Zhang Gong and Qiao Gong. ”

Looking at Sun Ce, who was annoyed, Yuan Quan was completely stunned. Can this be forgotten? She didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly got out of the car again, and called Yuan Heng again, so that people could invite her. Zhang Xun and the others had already gotten out of the car and waited for a while, just to see that Sun Ce and Yuan Quan were chatting happily, and it was not good to disturb, and when they saw that this side was ready, they walked over side by side, bowed down and saluted Yuan Quan and Yuan Heng.

Yuan Quan returned the salute and glared at Sun Ce fiercely. "You have worked hard, and you have missed the distance, and I hope that you will forgive your sins."

Zhang Xun said: "Madame is serious. I can't wait to get there, it's not hard. General Sun worked more and more for Jingzhou's affairs, and forgot to eat, that is really hard. When we saw Madame, we were finally relieved. ”

Hearing Jingzhou's official affairs again, Yuan Quandai frowned slightly. "What kind of thing is so tricky that it can't be solved with the help of you?"

Yan Xiang turned around and pointed to the old Yuan Shu who was accompanying him. "Madam, almost all the people who mourned General Yuan are here."

Yuan Quan's heart tightened, and he glanced at Sun Ce apologetically. She is a smart person, how can she not hear the meaning behind Yan Xiang's words. Liu Xun and the rest of Yuan Shu's old department didn't listen to Sun Ce's orders, Sun Ce was in trouble now, he just forced a smile and didn't want her to be nervous.

Sun Ce spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and smiled slightly. "I'm used to it."
