Lao Zhu took the note out of Kunning Palace, passed through the Jinshen Hall and went straight to the Huagai Palace, and just sat down behind the dragon case and said to Yuansheng: "You go to Zhongshu Province and Tongzheng Department to see if there is an excerpt from Liaodong." ”

Yuan Sheng responded, and said, "Your Majesty, Governor Han has been waiting for you for a while." ”

"Oh, go ahead, and call him over to see me by the way!"

Yuan Sheng took out a teacup and handed it to Lao Zhu, "The emperor remembers to use the medicine, this is just boiled by the slave maid, and it is still hot." He instructed the little eunuch next to him: "Good life to serve the emperor's medicine." Then he bowed and retreated, turned around, and went out of the temple gate.

Lao Zhu opened the lid and saw a layer of ants floating on the maroon medicinal soup, Lao Zhu frowned, and drank the soup with dregs in one go.

One of the two little eunuchs came up with warm white water, and the other with a spittoon, "Please rinse your mouth!" ”

Lao Zhu drank a sip of white water, leaned his neck and grunted twice, spit into the spittoon, and saw the eunuch hand over the sliced pears again, waved his hand and said, "I don't eat it, polish the ink for me." ”

The little eunuch had just poured some water on the inkstone, and had just picked up the ink strip, when Han Cheng had already entered the hall and kowtowed to the dragon case.

Lao Zhu waved his hand and said, "You all go out, Han Cheng will come to grind ink for me!" ”

The eunuchs and palace maids in the hall retreated one after another, leaving only Lao Zhu and Han Cheng, Han Cheng got up and took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Lao Zhu, which was full of dense small characters, and familiar names could be vaguely seen.

"He's not gone yet? Are you planning to go back to your hometown? ”

Han Cheng took the ink strip and gently grinded it on the inkstone, and the water, which was originally quite clear, quickly became turbid and black, "Yes, Liu Fu still hasn't packed his bags." ”

"Hmph......" Lao Zhu sneered softly, "I thought that if I stayed under my nose, I would let him go?" Seeing that Han Cheng wanted to speak and stopped, he asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Well, maybe...... Maybe he's waiting for the emperor's holy judge, and he doesn't want our Jinyi Wei to get mixed up with his Qingtian hometown. ”

"If that's the case, then you should do it sooner, and don't leave any traces. I have also made contributions to Daming, and I will not tear my face. ”

"Whoa!" Han Cheng immediately bowed and received the order.

Just right, Yuan Sheng slowly entered the hall and said to Lao Zhu: "Your Majesty, the slaves and maids in Zhongshu Province and Tongzheng Department have not found the excerpts handed over by Liaodong. ”

Lao Zhu took out the slip he had picked up in Kunning Palace and looked at it again, "Impossible, it's been almost two months, Feng Sheng's fold should be handed over." ”

"Hmm...... This, the slave maid listened to Lang Zhong, who was on duty at night in Zhongshu Province, say that the excerpt of Liaodong, Prime Minister Hu Cheng, had been approved and had been returned to Liaodong by the General Administration Department. ”

Lao Zhu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Hehe...... Hu Weiyong is really diligent! He turned his head to Han Cheng, who was kneeling beside him, and said, "You don't care about the affairs of the Liu Mansion, let Hu Weiyong go to the Liu Mansion tomorrow to visit the doctor and deliver medicine!" ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sky is blue, the grass is green, a long convoy runs through the grass and moves slowly, the cart is not pulled by cattle and horses, but by savages with dark skin and oil paint on their faces.

The cars are all ordinary flatbed trucks, and women and children are sitting in the car looking left and right, their faces full of surprise and novelty, and a gust of wind blows the hair of the middle-aged woman in the front of the car messy.

The woman brushed her hair behind her ears and said with a smile: "The wind here is really good, not as hot as the Nanyang, there is miasma everywhere, and the scenery is much better than the Nanyang." ”

A man wearing armor and carrying a waist knife strode next to the car, and said to the woman with a smile: "The climate here is a bit like the Central Plains, but the winter is not as cold as the Central Plains. ”

The woman sneered and said, "You are not confused, it should be the beginning of autumn now!" ”

The man grinned: "What do you know, this is a different place from the Central Plains, the wax moon here is summer, June is winter, and here and the Central Plains are the opposite." ”

"What? Is there anything like this? Don't lie to me! The woman pouted in disbelief.

"A woman has long hair and short knowledge!" The man grabbed a handful of grass on the ground, "Do you see that this grass is tender and can pinch out water, like autumn grass?" ”

Seeing the woman's hesitation, the man pointed to the sky again, "Look at the sun here, but it's in the north!" ”

The woman grew her mouth, "Is that the north?" I thought it was a mile to the south! No matter where the sun is here, as long as there are people living here, and the land here can grow as long as the banker grows, we won't move around anymore. ”

The man smiled and said: "No, no, the crops are naturally obtained, you see how well the water and grass grow here, the crops grow better." Lao Zhao said, let's live here and don't leave, in the future, we will open up wasteland here to grow cotton spinning, our family has a son, and we have to have more babies, anyway, there is land here. ”

The woman spat out, "You are not ashamed to be in front of so many people!" The other women in the car were snickering.

A little child suddenly cried out, "Look, look, there's a donkey walking on two legs!" ”

The man laughed, "That's not a donkey, it looks like a person from a distance, and when I walked in, I found that it looked like a donkey and a mouse, we all called him four dislikes, and its doll is quite similar to you, so he hid in his mother's arms all day long and refused to come out!" ”

Zhao Chu punched Si Wei's head, kicked it to the ground, and returned to the side of the carriage, saying, "Princess, don't be afraid, this thing looks very fierce, but it eats grass and not eats people." ”

Zhang Minzhu covered her mouth and smiled: "It's quite interesting to look at the head and brain, I remember, this thing is called a kangaroo, and there is a bag on the stomach that is dedicated to putting a wallaby, he told me!" ”

"Really, it does have a bag on its belly, that person must have been here before, we first went to the west, there are desert Gobi deserts, so we traveled along the coastline for half a month, and then we reached the east.

He didn't lie, this place is different from Nanyang, there are no hot flashes, no miasma, and there are not even many fierce beasts, even if there is no grain, just catching this kangaroo can live, by the way, there is also a big bird here, which is about as tall as a human, and the eggs laid are blue, there are so big, one can fill the stomach, haha......"

"Aren't there those wolves and lions with bags on their bellies? He said yes. ”

Zhao Chuyi shook his head, "I haven't seen a lion when I have traveled all over the convenient hundred miles, but the wolf has seen a few but I have killed them, there is nothing to be afraid of!" ”

Zhang Minzhu nodded, "If that's the case, then this place is really heaven!" ”
