Romance Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of the prosperous Daming!

After passing through Wuhui Mountain, it entered Hebei, that is, the boundary of North Zhili.

Although Shanxi is only separated by a mountain, the prosperity between the two places is very different. Although there are still hundreds of miles away from the capital, and there is also an important pass, Bauhinia Pass, the number of pedestrians has increased sharply, and the villages along the road have also become denser, so there is no need to worry about the need for a group to stay overnight in the wilderness.

Not only do you not have to worry about accommodation, but also the accommodation is free of charge. It's not that the quality of the people in Beizhili is so high today, but it's because there are a lot of government-run post stations along the road, often one in twenty or thirty miles, as long as the imperial court order is displayed, Lu Zhen and his party can be properly entertained for free.

It was only at this time that we could see some of the current prosperous weather. The people who came and went had a happy and excited look on their faces, and their steps were particularly firm and powerful, and everyone was vigorous and upward, just like the Ming Dynasty, which had not yet completed a hundred years and was constantly opening up.

It's the guys in those post stations, even if Lu Zhen and they don't pay, they greet each other with a smile and are very thoughtful. The meals and vegetables were also picked and brought to them, which made Lu Zhen really feel at home.

"The capital is different from other places, even this small post station is far better than the most expensive inn in any part of our Shanxi." After seeing all this, Li Xian, Wu Kui and other martial artists couldn't help but admire, and said that it was the right time to come here with Lu County's order.

In this regard, Lu Zhen smiled silently. They may not know why, but he can think of it. This is only because the imperial court attaches great importance to the transportation of the capital, so it has spent a lot of effort and invested heavily to open these post stations.

All this is just to allow news from all over the country to be delivered to the Son of Heaven as soon as possible, and also to facilitate those officials who enter and leave the capital to go more comfortably. In fact, the original intention of the imperial court was to completely spread this post station system to the whole country, but the national strength was limited, and in the end it could only invest this limited resource in a corner of Beizhili.

In this, there is naturally the careful thinking of relevant officials. Because elsewhere, the Son of Heaven and the officials of the DPRK and China are invisible. But at the feet of the Son of Heaven in Beizhili, everything can't be hidden, and it is naturally a credit to do a good job, so they will do their best. This kind of practice of concealing the upper and lower levels has always been the most common trick in the officialdom of the Chinese people.

However, there is no need to break this kind of thing, the national strength is like this, this is the limit of what the imperial court can do. I only hope that when Daming goes further in the future, he can re-lay out all this, so that all the people in the world can live the same convenient life.

After passing the Bauhinia Pass and continuing eastward, the number of towns gradually increased.

The towns here are much more prosperous than those in Shanxi, although they do not have the high-rise buildings and densely populated scenes like those of later generations, but they also have an endless flow of people, and even from time to time you can see a few carts loaded with various goods being driven straight to the direction of the capital.

Although the Ming Dynasty had set a policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce since the Hongwu Dynasty, with the continuous progress of the times, merchants were still active. As the capital of the world, the capital has naturally become a place where merchants from all over the country flock to, as long as the special goods from all over the country can be sold here at a good price, they will send them thousands of miles away, just to earn enough rewards.

Seeing everything in front of him, Lu Jin's face unconsciously showed a happy look. This is the prosperous scene he hopes to see, only the prosperity of the people, the flow of wealth and goods, can make the whole world glow with vigorous and powerful vitality, and make everything better.

Chu Yunrong, who was sitting in front of him and had been paying attention to his expression, pursed his lips and laughed unconsciously when he saw this: "Why are you smiling so happily all the way?" But because I know that I am about to enter Beijing and will have a good future, is I overjoyed? ”

Hearing the other party's ridicule, Lu Zhen immediately pretended to put on a face: "Who do you think of me?" How could you be so out of shape because of this? What I like is that this Da Ming finally looks a little prosperous, and finally did not disappoint me. ”

Chu Yunrong was stunned for a moment, and then remembered Lu Jin's identity. As far as she knew, this person had been staying in the north for the first time, and it was the first time she had come to the capital, so she would naturally feel happy when she saw such a prosperous scene. This made her heart move, and she laughed: "It's the little woman who said the wrong thing, and she still wants Lu County to order a lot of adults, don't blame." ”

Seeing her talking like this, Lu Jin's eyes were also full of smiles, and he waved his hand at her words: "That's it, I think you are a first-time offender, and I will spare you this time." Don't talk nonsense like this again in the future, otherwise the official will not spare you. ”

Seeing him put on an official appearance and talk about teaching, Chu Yunrong felt a burst of amusement, and couldn't help but giggle. And her smile was like a sudden bloom of a quiet orchid, indescribably charming and moving, which made Lu Zhen a little dumbfounded, and in a blink of an eye, the appearance of the official just now changed his face.

It wasn't until he found that the man in front of him was staring at him without blinking that Chu Yunrong suddenly thought of something, and a look of shame suddenly appeared on his face, and he looked another moving appearance.

A trace of inexplicable affection diffused between the two, and Lu Zhen swept the face of the woman in front of him a little unceremoniously, but Chu Yunrong's gaze kept dodging, not daring to meet his gaze. And her heart was beating very fast, and a strange feeling came to her heart, both shy and with a trace of anticipation, just wanting to stay at this moment for a little longer.

It's a pity that someone soon came to spoil the atmosphere. The carriage suddenly stopped, and Lin Lie's voice sounded outside: "My lord, it's time to the post station in Beitongzhou." It's late today, and there is a curfew in the capital, so it seems that we can't enter the city, so let's rest here for one night. ”

Lu Zhen was bold enough to use his hand to catch the hand of the woman in front of him, but he was trembling by this scream, and the movements in his hand naturally stopped. And Chu Yunrong had already retracted his little hand that had just moved forward slightly, as if it was just a misunderstanding just now.

Although the two are ostensibly husband and wife, they are actually not related to each other. Especially for Chu Yunrong, when her husband was newly mourned, she actually had a different kind of feelings for another man, which made her a little timid, and she was even more afraid of being seen by others, so she often took three steps back.

Seeing her concerns, Lu Zhen could only sigh, the fire had not yet arrived. After all, he is not a veteran of flowers, such ambiguous things can be done, but further, he can't do it, so he can only put it aside.

It's just that Lu Zhen is still a little dissatisfied with Lin Lie, a guy who has ruined his good deeds. So when he got out of the car, he kept a calm face and snorted at the other party.

Seeing this, Lin Lie was a little confused, he didn't know where he had offended Lord Lu, why did he look at him so unpleasantly?

This Tongzhou is a transit station on the traffic artery into Beijing, so it is taken a general word. Moreover, in order to facilitate the northern and southern provinces, or the people who are called the political secretary, the imperial court also deliberately set up two Tongzhou in the north and south. Lu Zhen and the others came from Shanxi, and they were in Beitongzhou at this time.

The people of the time once made a couplet, Nantong Prefecture and North Tongzhou, and North and South Tongzhou and North and South; East Pawnshop West Pawnshop, East and West Pawnshop Stuff. It can be seen how close the relationship between Tongzhou and the people of Beijing is, and all people or things who want to enter the capital must pass through these two places.

As a result, the markets of the two places have become completely prosperous, although they are not as good as the capital, but they are also the best in other state capitals and counties. Especially the post station opened here, it is even more luxurious, to make an analogy, that is now the five-star hotel in Daming.

At the foot of the Son of Heaven, the post stations opened at the feet of the Son of Heaven were all sent to the capital and other provinces, and the vision of the shopkeeper here was naturally high. So when he saw Lu Zhen and his party coming in the dust, and they just took out the lowest county magistrate's certificate, the guy didn't even look at them, he just took it casually and sent it to the counter.

In this regard, several soldiers were angry in their hearts, after all, they had not suffered such anger all the way. But under Lu Jin's gaze, they still pressed it down, and after the previous Guojiazhuang incident, they were really in awe of Lu Jin's heart.

Lu Zhen had already been mentally prepared, knowing that here in the capital, a small county order like himself was nothing at all, so the other party's cold attitude naturally would not make him feel surprised and angry. As long as you get together for one night, you will enter the capital tomorrow, and there is no need to have any disputes with people.

Just when he thought that this was the case, the shopkeeper who had not taken them seriously was stunned when he saw the official certificate. Immediately, a flattering smile appeared on his face, and he rushed over in person, and bowed his hand to Lu Zhen again and again: "It turned out that Lu County ordered us to come to our station." Hurry, hurry up and prepare the courtyard of Tianzi for Lu County to settle them in. Also, prepare some good banquets and forage ......"

Those guys were stunned for a moment, wondering why the shopkeeper, who was very cold to even the political envoys who came to the capital, suddenly changed his face like this. But they didn't dare to ask more, so they smiled and agreed, and hurried to do so.

And Lu Zhen was also surprised, why was the other party so condescending? Can a seven-pin county order still make the other party who is used to seeing big scenes stutter like this?

But seeing the shopkeeper's unintentional explanation, he didn't ask, so he thanked him, and then another guy took him to the back and settled down.

It wasn't until they had seen them go that the shopkeeper beckoned a fellow and whispered something in his ear. After the other party nodded in response, he hurried out the door......
