Chapter 218: Dragon Gate, I'm Coming!

"Let's start from Daocheng now, go east to Dengzhou and then turn all the way to the north, enter Dugi Road and cross the Yellow River through Henan Province, even if it is in Hebei Province, and then go all the way to the north, along the way through Wei, Xiang, Wei, Xing, Zhao, Heng, Ding, Yi, Youjiuzhou is even to Yanzhou, the state city of Yanzhou is Huairong, I got the state government to see the history of the assassination, and by the way, I stopped in the state city for a few days to rest."

On the official road of Daocheng in the east of Shannan, Laifu took Zheng Wu, Zheng Qi, and Zheng Jiu to ride horses on both sides to escort an obviously reinforced new carriage, Tang Cheng in the carriage looked at the scenery outside by the window, and casually answered Zheng Lingyi's question.

"After Huairong rests for a long time, let's continue north, and then you can see the Great Wall flying and hovering on the top of the mountain in the distance, arrived? Not yet, but it's fast, let's walk towards the Great Wall for another two or three days, and when you can 'touch' the bricks of the Great Wall, you will pass through a gate and set foot on the territory of the county order", Tang Cheng stroked Zheng Lingyi's increasingly stiff shoulders in his hand, and said with a light smile: "Calculate the time for us to leave, if we go faster, we can arrive in late autumn, if we go slower, it will be early winter, and it will be about three thousand miles, not near or far."

Hearing Tang Cheng say lightly about the three thousand miles that are not far away, Laifu and Zheng Wu beside him looked at each other and felt that a bad chill suddenly gave birth to their whole bodies, three thousand miles, the road is not stop for two months a day, this is not far away! That...... Is there a far place in this world?

Zheng Lingyi was already dizzy when she heard the series of place names in front of her, but she had only stayed in Chang'an and Yangzhou since she was born, Yangzhou was far enough for her, and at this time, she heard the number of three thousand miles. The whole person suddenly bounced up from Tang Cheng's arms, and a pair of apricot eyes instantly widened, "Three thousand miles? ”。

"Didn't you ask me what I was doing before I left the city? In addition to meeting the observer Yu, I am borrowing his detailed geographical map of mountains and rivers, and he is talking about the land drawn on the map, can there be a fake? Tang Cheng, who had a narrow smile on his face, looked innocent, three thousand miles was not far away. In the future, such a distance can be reached in more than ten hours by T-shaped express train, and if it is a plane, it will be faster, and it can be done in an hour and forty-five minutes, which is not too far?

Now, although he has traveled to the Tang Dynasty, the geographical concept that has been cultivated in later generations for more than 20 years is not something that can be lost, and he does not say nonsense, but he really feels that it is not near or far. As for the Tang people, who have been accustomed to taking a car since childhood, can only walk fifty or sixty miles a day, what do you think, that ...... I can't help it. Who made this era without trains and planes!

Looking at the narrow smile on Tang Cheng's face, Zheng Lingyi's round eyes suddenly narrowed like a crescent moon, his stiff body softened, and after lying back in Tang Cheng's arms and settling down comfortably, Zheng Lingyi chuckled and said, "Don't say three thousand miles." It's six thousand miles, nine thousand miles to the moon, as long as you go, I have to go, and if you can go, I can naturally go."

"How. Not afraid of being far away? ”。

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid", Zheng Lingyi sighed leisurely, but his eyes were full of smiles, "But according to my mother's words, once you enter the Tang family, you are the Tang family!" Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog. If your eldest master wants to go, the little girl can only follow, or ......", when he said this, Zheng Lingyi suddenly stopped, and then two red clouds suddenly rose on his face.

Through the car window, the oblique sunlight shone on Li Yingjun's white and tender face, and these two red clouds were like two peach blossoms blooming on the white jade gelatin, making it even brighter. Tang Chengdi's fingers gently flicked on the two peach blossoms. He lowered his body and whispered a wicked smile: "What, I thought of my family law, master." As he spoke, his other hand had slid from the back of Zheng Lingyi's shoulder to the bottom of the ground.

Yes, the former Inner Palace Jieyu and Yangzhou City envoys are now married as "women" and have become the righteous eldest lady of the Tang family, and their wedding was held on the fourth day after Zheng Lingyi arrived in Jinzhou.

Because of Zheng Lingyi's special identity and past experience, the scope of this wedding is not large, and there are not many people here, for this reason, Tang Zhang's family smacked his mouth and regretted for a long time with the thick stack of boudoir portraits sent by various media, and the Tang family has never had a Jinshi in the fifth or sixth generation, speaking of which, this is Tang Cheng's big wedding, shouldn't it be so cold, just for this reason, she complained a few words in front of Tang Xuan.

But soon, Tang Zhang's regret was replaced by happiness, the reason is that Zheng Lingyi's performance is really good, when she first came, because of the fatigue of the journey and listening to Tang Cheng say the details of Shangguan Wan'er's "suicide" on the night of the palace change, Zheng Lingyi was really sad and tired, naturally the whole person seemed to be sad and depressed, and after a few days of rest and Tang Chengdi's careful comfort, she slowly recovered, of course, this is also thanks to the news of Shangguan Wan'er's "suicide" She knew it early, The saddest period of time has passed on the road to Yangzhou and Jinzhou, and now it is just a wound in my heart because of the repetition of old things.

The sadness subsided, the tired body recovered, and the upcoming wedding with the lover who had been waiting for more than two years, after this happy event, Zheng Lingyi seemed to be a different person compared with the first two days.

Let's talk about appearance first, a few days ago, Tang Zhang's family only paid attention to Zheng Lingyi's sad face all day long, he was really not a helper, but anyone like this would not be happy if he saw it for the first time, and he was not in the mood to take a closer look. Now Zheng Lingyi was overjoyed, and her already bright and beautiful smile made Tang Zhang, who was reluctant to come to drink her mother-in-law's tea, dazzled. Mother, this is still the same person, not to mention her appearance, not to mention the boudoir portraits sent by those media, even the daughter-in-law who has always looked beautiful is a little less youthful and agile than it.

After looking at his appearance, he said that he was born in a big family and came out of the inner palace, every word and move, the smell that emanated between his hand and his foot Although Tang Zhang couldn't understand what it was, he also knew that it was pleasing to the eye and comfortable to see, and it was really not something that ordinary families could raise. Especially after hearing the two daughters say that they didn't dare to look directly at this new brother and daughter-in-law, and the subordinates unconsciously tightened the rules when they saw her, Tang Zhang's smile couldn't stop laughing.

Look, even Mrs. Beijia's words and deeds began to tense up after seeing the new daughter-in-law's "wife" for a while, for fear that there would be some rudeness to make jokes, what else is there to say about such a daughter-in-law, isn't it a perfect match for her own Jinshi son?

To say that Zheng Lingyi is the happiest thing about Tang Zhang's is that she has a big heart, and there is no right or wrong. When I first heard my son Tang Cheng say that he wanted to marry Zheng Lingyi. Tang Zhang's biggest worry is Li Yingjun, in case the two of her can't get together, there will be no life in the family! This kind of thing is still rare, once the wife and concubine make a fuss, it is not her precious son who is uncomfortable?

Who thought that Zheng Lingyi didn't mean to take the big "woman" shelf at all, not only did he call Li Yingjun sister first, but he also had affection for the kitten from the bottom of his heart, looking at the momentum as if he hadn't seen a child for many years. In addition, the most affordable thing is to get married for a few days. Zheng Lingyi not only didn't ask about the dispatch of his subordinates, but also didn't mention the family's account books and money receipts, this kind of thing is really rare, not to mention Yunxi, just count this Golden State door to door. But who is not the eldest lady who has a concubine?

If it is said that the appearance and bearing of the daughter-in-law can be allowed, it is almost almost, anyway, it doesn't mean to live like this. It is too important for the virtuous to have a measure, and the big "woman" can have a measure to make the family peaceful. Only when a family and a family can we prosper a good life really give a good life.

Tsai carefully observed the new daughter-in-law's "wife" for more than half a month, and on the day Tang Cheng had to leave, Tang Zhang's was really comfortable to Zheng Lingyi, and he was comfortable looking left and right, and he took her hand and told him to talk more on the way than to his son, so that Tang Xuan on the side looked speechless, and then thought about her complaint at the beginning...... Ay! Woman, I really can't say.

Blessed they followed outside. Even if the two of them are in love, they can't declare 'lewdness' in the car in broad daylight, and after laughing for a few words, they quieted down, and Zheng Lianyi, whose head was resting in Tang Cheng's arms, with a light red face, played with Tang Cheng's fingers back and forth, while softly singing "Folding Willows" in his mouth:

Hold the hand and fold the willow.

Asked Lang when he would return, but looked back without saying a word.

Fold the willow, complain about the willow

How to short long strips,

Only the concubine's heart. Don't tie the head of the horse?

The same rhetoric. Two moods, at this time, Zheng Lianyi sang this parting song again. The faint joy can't be hidden.

Listening to the familiar song "Folding Willows", Tang Cheng vaguely remembered Shili Yangzhou in the hazy aggriet of apricot blossoms, where he not only met beautiful women, but also the starting point of the ideal establishment of the end of his embarrassing life.

Spring breeze ten miles of Yangzhou Road, Yangzhou, Yangzhou, that is really an endless place.

"Tang Cheng"

"Huh?".

"What do you think this is?" , Asking, Zheng Lingyi's hand had stretched out and aligned Tang Cheng's five fingers, and the ten fingers of the two were tightly pressed together without any gaps.

"Ten thousand people shook hands from it, so that my sleeves were fragrant for three years?".

"Wrong", looking up and seeing the smile on Tang Cheng's lips, Zheng Lingyi slammed his head against his stomach, "Say it again."

"Ten Fingers Heart".

"Ten fingers connected to the heart", Zheng Lingyi repeated with a blurred look in his eyes, and his palm was already tightly attached to Tang Cheng's palm, and there was no gap. Almost at the same time, the two of them had whispered the next sentence in unison:

Heart-to-heart!

After pronouncing these four words, Zheng Lingyi slowly closed his eyes as if he was drunk, and said to himself like a dream: "With these four words of you, don't say three thousand miles, I am willing to jump off the cliff with you."

"Phew, bad luck", Tang Cheng stroked Zheng Lingyi's infinitely tender face with his other hand, "I also pointed to you to take my son to 'swing', what cliff to jump?" It's that the emperor and princess have jumped everywhere, and Lao Tzu doesn't jump either, so he has to live well and live happily."

"No shame", listening to Tang Cheng talk about children, Zheng Lingyi suddenly remembered the kitten, this little girl is so cute, "Hey! It's a pity that the cat is too young to follow us, otherwise we won't be afraid of loneliness no matter how far the road is."

Speaking of this, Tang Cheng could only sigh, the child was too young to stand the long-distance bumps of three thousand miles, and besides, he had never been to Longmen County after all, and he didn't know what the situation was over there. I really don't dare to let my beloved daughter take risks, "Wait, if we stay properly after we get to Longmen, we will take their mother and daughter and father and mother after the spring cat eggs are one year old in the next year, and the family will still live together after all."

It was a good atmosphere, why did he think of saying this, Tang Cheng was distressed about the cat, didn't this hook make him uncomfortable? As soon as the unintentional words came out. Zheng Lingyi regretted that he shouldn't have lost his words, nodded at this time and hurriedly changed the topic, "Longmen County is so far away, if you change to someone else, you probably won't go, it's great to resign and stay at home first, and then go to the exam to take the exam and seek another recovery after catching up with the imperial court in a few years; Even if you don't take this path and want to go to work, I'm afraid that you will be sad along the way, and you're good. Not only do you want to go, but it's nice to watch? If you let people who don't know know how to see this, maybe you will be able to take up a post in the capital."

"I can't be happy if I really go to the capital", Tang Cheng didn't say anything after hearing that Tang Cheng replied with a smile, and turned his head to look at the green mountains and beautiful waters outside the window.

It is the northernmost county under the direct jurisdiction of Datang. Although Longmen is remote, it really has the advantage of being unspeakable to outsiders for Tang Cheng. The farther away from the Central Plains is the weaker the influence of the imperial court on this place, and the weaker many ideas in the Central Plains are here.

If these two points are changed to a Tang Dynasty official, it will definitely be a barbarian land. The people don't know how to be polite. But in the eyes of Tang Cheng, who was bent on change, he was afraid that there was no more suitable place for him to toss than Longmen.

In addition, there is a greater benefit of this place, out of Longmen County and further north is the Raole where the Xi people gather, the north of the Xi people is the Khitan, the north of the Khitan is the Murwei, and the north and east of the Murwei are the five Ori, in a simple word. Longmen is actually the outpost of communication between the northern Tibetan tribes and the Tang Dynasty, guarding such a unique geographical location, and the so-called desolate word is simply a joke in Tang Cheng's opinion.

After carefully studying the geographical map of the mountains and rivers in the eastern military area, Tang Chengzhen couldn't wait to shoot the case and praise his bosom friend, Taiping Gong was not his bosom friend, how could he arrange such a place for him to be the most suitable as an ideal start, and to be able to toss and have a toss?

From the day when Yangzhou began to germinate the idea of ideals, Tang Cheng waited for a long time before finally waiting for this opportunity. How could he be upset? What is remoteness. What is hardship, people should be in such an environment to tear their hands and kick their feet to show their chests and repay the losses. It's not in vain to go through this meeting, the more remote and difficult the current conditions, the greater the sense of accomplishment after success can really change the day.

Since the dimly established ideal of change, Tang Chengcheng never thought of being a rich and noble official in his comfort nest, what is the ideal? The ideal is something that is almost impossible to achieve, the ideal is not only to fight with the sky, fight with the earth, fight with people, but also have to fight with yourself, no matter how hard and tired you are, grit your teeth and endure it, squeeze your bones and boil oil, don't do what others think is impossible, don't boil the blood of your whole body, don't stand on the top of the mountain and spit out the long breath that has been holding back, it's not worthy of being called a crossing man!

"Tang Cheng?" , Zheng Lingyi raised his head and looked at Tang Cheng with sparkling eyes, "I'm talking to you."

"I'm happy, why aren't you happy to be the chief officer in the most suitable place for me?" , Facing Zheng Lingyi's puzzled eyes, Tang Cheng, who laughed out loud, only felt that an unprecedented pride and expectation suddenly surged in his chest, and his heart was hot, and he didn't care that this was the official road where people came and went, and when he went out, there was a passionate roar:

Twenty merits, dust and earth, three thousand miles of clouds and moons, don't wait, the young man's head is white, empty and sad!

Longmen, I'm coming!
