Chapter 197: Running away from home

Thankfully, it's not that the worries are gone, but that they have so much to do compared to the worries. The most important thing is to let the Jingluo Mansion operate under Ye Tao's control, so that Ye Tao's orders can actually reach every location and be carefully implemented. To achieve this goal, Dai's cooperation in words and deeds is indispensable.

Therefore, Ye Tao came to Yunzhou this time, and after arriving at the Thunder Cliff, he did not go to Suiyuan in the northwest direction, nor did he go to Ningyuan City due north after bypassing Snow Wolf Lake, but turned southeast and headed towards Tianling Fort, where the clan center of the Dai clan was located.

It is also the root place of a family, Tianling Fort and the Jiangshan Fort of the Tan family have different styles. Jiangshan Fort is a typical military fortress complex, and other functions are only ancillary, while Tianling Fort is different. If Ye Tao could go back to that time and space, his architectural teacher would definitely not hesitate to classify Tianling Fort as a typical feudal fortress complex mixed with the style of the Western Regions. In the original time and space, the few feudal fortress complexes, whether they are ruins or still in use, are without exception cultural relics protection buildings and tourist attractions.

At the top of Tianling Castle, as the Dai family's most focused protection, it is not the ancestral temple that is protected, but a slightly narrow garden called Jinshitang that has been added and renovated several times, with a three-story library building as the core and a circle of two-story houses enclosing it. In addition to a variety of precious documents, a variety of geographical chronicles, a variety of military books and war strategies, there are also Dai family from generation to generation, all aspects of the outstanding people left by the experience of the notes. These notes cover all aspects that a person must learn or may learn, and guide and answer questions for Dai's descendants. Naturally, not everyone can enter the Golden Stone Hall. Entry is only possible with the consent of at least two elders, and. Every time.

Surrounding the Jinshi Hall is the ancestral hall of the Dai family, all levels of clan studies, martial arts halls and playgrounds. Ye Tao listened to a middle-aged man's introduction, and couldn't help nodding his head again and again, Dai's investment in education and their philosophy are indeed ahead of this era. Not to mention anything else, the learning method of grading, the combination of leniency and strictness, and the combination of universal teaching and individual guidance by teachers are quite advanced. The land of the four wars in Yunzhou. In the case of a sense of crisis, the Dai disciples are even more diligent, no wonder almost every generation of the Dai family has a figure who can provoke the beam.

The outer ring is the various buildings. According to the Dai clan who led the way, except for the young and young children who studied in the clan studies, the other Dai clansmen rarely lived in the mountains, and most of them patrolled in the mid-mountain fortress belt, and most of the ordinary Dai clansmen lived in a few villages in the back mountains.

It wasn't that the Dai clan hadn't thought about building and renovating Tianling Fort again, in fact, they did have the money to do it. But since it has been incorporated into Dongping. Many people have already moved to Danyang, and more people are ready to move to Yunhai Villa, which has much newer buildings and much better living conditions, and there will be fewer and fewer people staying in Tianling Fort in the future. Maybe there is also the meaning of being afraid of other people's gossip, but in general, Tianling Fort is such a feudal fortress complex. There is no need for renovations.

From the foot of the mountain to the fortress area halfway up the mountainside, Ye Tao saw that many people of the Dai clan were doing all kinds of work in an orderly manner, especially the gradual demolition of a large number of old buildings that seemed to be a little crumbling. Indeed, there will be much fewer people from the Dai clan who will stay in Tianling Fort in the future. But it is because there are fewer people that they have the space to change the style of Tianling Fort slightly, and use gardens and trees to fill those old and decayed, useless buildings.

In the middle of the fortress complex halfway up the mountain, the tallest building is the core of Dai's administrative and military command: Dingyun Pavilion. And in front of Dingyun Pavilion. Dai Shikui and Dai Shiheng were both waiting for Ye Tao. Behind them, there are more members of the Dai core or non-core.

"See the Envoy of the Scriptures!" A group of Dai clan members saluted in unison.

Ye Tao hurriedly stepped forward, held up Dai Shikui and Dai Shiheng, and said that he didn't dare to be, and his cramped appearance made the very young Dai disciples in the back row laugh out loud.

"Lord Ye, you are really a blessing for us in Yunzhou. Originally, we were still worried, and we didn't know who the imperial court would send to take over General Xu. I'm afraid that there are many problems that are not well communicated. There will inevitably be places where things are missing. Since you're here, we're all relieved. Dai Shikui said very politely.

"Uncle Day. You're so polite. No matter what, you don't have to call me an adult, right? It's too torturous to kill the younger generation. Uncle Day, just call me by my name. Ye Tao said politely.

Dai Shikui smiled, he also knew Ye Tao's quirks, and liked to call him by his name no matter how high or low he was. Although Ye Tao has a table word "Canghuai", he usually hardly uses it, and he will only sign this word on manuscripts such as engraving, painting, and drawing design.

As Ye Tao's future father-in-law, Dai Shikui was not very polite, he led Ye Tao and his party into Dingyun Pavilion together, and sat down in the hall. He is also a person who has seen the world, and naturally knows Ye Tao's intention: on the one hand, it is to get closer to the relationship between the two sides, and on the other hand, it is also to be able to talk to Dai on an unofficial occasion about his vision for the future of Yunzhou, so as not to have some places where everyone can't understand and understand each other after various things unfold in the future. Obviously, Ye Tao is a very careful and very considerate envoy, and he does not take Dai's full cooperation for granted because of the marriage between him and Dai Yun that has already been confirmed.

After having a conversation with Ye Tao, Dai Shikui and Dai Shiheng were very satisfied. Ye Tao even earnestly asked Dai Shiheng not to go to Dongping to be idle, but to be able to serve as the superintendent of the Yunzhou Economic Strategy Mansion to check the construction and development of the army. And Dai Shikui is not suitable for a specific position due to his future father-in-law's identity, but because Dai Shikui has always been responsible for Dai's communication with others, Ye Tao hopes that he can help from the side......

Tan Weixin also joined the conversation after being pulled by Dai Xi in the small living room next to her and meeting a large group of Dai members. Tan Weixin's responsibilities are much more practical, and Dai's cooperation is more and more needed. Although the gradual diversion and delivery of many of Dai's assets was proposed by Dai himself, it is difficult to guarantee that the following Dai people who are responsible for the specific operation will not have all kinds of resistance. Naturally, Dai also felt very reasonable about Tan Weixin's concerns, and immediately decided to let Dai Qiong assist Tan Weixin. For the initial development of Yunzhou that Ye Tao and Tan Weixin already had, Dai was very interested. These delicate ideas made them feel that maybe Yunzhou could really rise in a much shorter time than expected. Yes, rise.

Suddenly, Ye Tao thought of a very strange question, and he asked casually: "By the way, what about Dai Yun?" ”

Ye Tao didn't expect that such a simple question would cause a cold spot. Dai Shiheng turned his head, picked up the tea cup, and stared at the fine tea leaves floating in the small square of water, while Dai Shikui showed an embarrassed expression.

"This ...... The little girl set off for Dalun Mountain this morning. Dai Shikui hesitated for a while and then explained. He thought that Ye Tao already knew what several parties had agreed on behind his back, if nothing else, now Dai Shining was discussing this matter with Ye Tao's father, Ye Laogeng, very specifically. Seeing Ye Tao ask Dai Yun like this, Dai Shikui already understood that Ye Tao calmly accepted the ...... around him Those "adults" arranged, but Dai Shikui really didn't expect that his daughter Dai Yun, who had been calm before, ran away on the morning of Ye Tao's scheduled arrival. You know, Dai Yun has always been very cool, when Dai Shikui cautiously asked her if she was willing to marry Ye Tao, Dai Yun just raised his head slightly, looked at his father helplessly, and said very coldly: "Okay, then that's it." Dai Shikui regarded his daughter's answer as a kind of cover for his own feelings, because as a very considerate father, he was sure that in Dai Yun's expression and answer, there was a faint expectation.

"Dalun Mountain?" Ye Tao was stunned.

Dai Shiheng coughed and said, "Northern Liao began to build a fortress on Dalun Mountain, and correspondingly, we also started to build some barracks and outposts on the side facing Dalun Mountain. Dai Yun probably went to check on those things. ”

Dai Shikui felt a little funny, his daughter has always been so assertive, and he was originally expecting Ye Tao and Dai Yun to meet in this situation. Dai Yun was not as shy as ordinary girls, but this morning, when Dai Yun got up early in the morning, with the help of the maid and orderly, straightened up her makeup, put on a full set of exquisite armor, and then calmly commanded the clansmen to arrange things to welcome Ye Tao with her father and uncle, Dai Yun's calm performance seemed to be just the result of her efforts to cover up, and suddenly Dai Yun seemed to think of something else, and it seemed that he couldn't bear the look of getting more and more feverish or being discovered by anyone. Suddenly, Dai Yun gave an order to his own personal army and set off. She walked in such a hurry that she didn't even leave a word, just said that she was going to Dalun Mountain.

And as a result, Dai Shikui discovered that his daughter was still a slender and sensitive heart of her daughter's family under the gorgeous armor. And this discovery is really interesting.
