After taking down Jia Yanshou, the Taishou of Dawan County, Zhao Ziliang asked Cen Shen to send a document to the Government Affairs Yuan, ordering him to resend the Taishou of Dawan County. Although the administrative level of the www.biquge.info county is under the Duhufu and nominally belongs to the Duhufu, the actual administrative power is directly under the Government Council, and the purpose of establishing the Duhufu is to manage and coordinate the relationship between the people of the various tribes of the Western Qin and the Han people, on the other hand, the reason why Zhao Ziliang split the Taixi Duhufu into the Kangju Duhufu and the Tocharian Duhufu, and retained the administrative body of the Duhufu, is to prove that the Western Qin is still nominally under the Tang Dynasty and has not become an independent kingdom.

After staying in Zhezhi City for a few days, Zhao Ziliang and his party went to Xiuxun County, which used to be Bahana, a mountainous and hilly area with abundant products.

After entering the boundary of Xiu Xun Prefecture, Zhao Ziliang pointed to Yang Yuhuan with a horse whip and said: "This is the boundary of Xiu Xun Prefecture, in the past, this was a small country called Ba Hana, speaking of which, the lord of Ba Hana had a great friendship with me, Ba Han Na has always been loyal to my Tang Dynasty, whenever Datang encounters a rebellion in this Western Regions, Ba Han Na is always the first to agree to send troops to assist, never talk about the conditions!" ”

Yang Yuhuan said: "Since Ahilandagan is so faithful and loyal to the Tang Dynasty, you still annexed his country, and you are too unauthentic!" ”

Zhao Ziliang sighed helplessly: "From a personal point of view, of course I don't want to do anything to Bahana, but at that time, our Beiting army had already defeated the Zhaowu Kingdoms and the Tocharian city-states, and actually ruled over the places and established county governments in various places and appointed officials to manage the places. ”

Yang Yuhuan asked, "What about the original Bahana country lord Ahilandagan?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "He died of illness before I decided to merge Bahana into Western Qin, if he doesn't die, it's really hard for me to do this, I can face his son calmly, but I can't face him!" But even if he doesn't die, I'll have to do it sooner or later, and I can't ignore the overall situation because of my personal feelings! ”

Yang Yuhuan said: "This is the difference between you men and women, you can give up everything for the so-called overall situation!" ”

"The overall situation is the overall situation, please don't add the so-called word in front of it, okay? Do you know what the big picture is? In the current situation, the overall situation is that the proportion of people who die less than half is reduced, and the result of the army may be many deaths! ”

Xiuxun County is also a place rich in good horses, then it belongs to the Tianshan Mountains, mountainous, cold climate, high altitude, the number of goats raised by herdsmen is particularly large, the meat quality of goats is particularly good, because it is mountainous and also high altitude, and rich in precious medicinal materials, such as Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus, Cordyceps sinensis.

Zhao Ziliang had to inspect military and political affairs, Yang Yuhuan could only take the two maids to find a place to play by himself, and after he was busy with the government and military affairs of Xiuxun County, Yang Yuhuan immediately came over and said: "Didn't you say the day before yesterday that there are Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus and cordyceps on the snow mountain here?" Take me to find it! I'm going to pick some and go back to make medicine."

Zhao Ziliang said: "If you only need these medicinal materials, I can send someone to find a medicine picker to buy some, it is very dangerous to go to the snow mountain to collect medicine, I am afraid that you will retreat before you collect the medicinal materials."

Yang Yuhuan swore and said: "No, if I don't pick Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus and cordyceps, I won't come back!" I just want to see for myself what kind of terrain and environment Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus and Cordyceps sinensis grow in! ”

Yang Yuhuan's identity was different after all, Zhao Ziliang couldn't refuse, so he had to agree, so he took her to the nearby snowy mountains to eat.

In fact, he learned that Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus and Cordyceps sinensis are abundant here, and these precious medicinal materials were accidentally discovered more than 20 years ago, when he led a team into the Zhaowu countries to lobby the Sogdian countries to send troops to attack the Tuqi Shi Tuhuo Immortal Khan, and found that many of the steep terrain on the snow-capped mountains here have Ganoderma lucidum, snow lotus and Cordyceps sinensis These precious medicinal materials grow, but no one picked them, and he was very puzzled why these medicinal materials were not picked at that time. Later, when I inquired, I learned that the person who was here did not know that the flowers and plants that grew on the top of the snow-capped mountains on the cliffs and lofty mountains were very valuable medicinal materials.

The group came to the foot of the Khan King Mountain, thirty miles east of the city of Xiuxun County, everyone camped at the foot of the mountain, Yang Yuhuan was wearing a tight-fitting samurai uniform, and her concave and convex figure made her look both vigorous and heroic and feminine, she looked up at the snow-capped mountain not far away and asked, "Ziliang, what kind of mountain is this?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "This is called Khan King Mountain, back then, a radius of 200 miles around here was the hunting ground of Ahilandagan, he was the Khan King of Bahana, so this mountain was also called Khan King Mountain!" ”

Yang Yuhuan said: "Let's go, while it's still early, hurry up and pick some medicinal herbs and return before dark!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "The guards are still camping, everyone is not ready, there may be problems if you rush up the mountain, let's wait until everyone is ready to go up the mountain!" ”

Yang Yuhuan shook his head and said: "No, there can't be many people picking Ganoderma lucidum, a precious medicinal material, they like to be quiet, the older the growth year, the more spiritual Ganoderma lucidum and snow lotus are, too many people will disturb them!" ”

Zhao Ziliang was stunned: "There is still this kind of exquisiteness?" How did I not know? ”

"There's so much you don't know! If you don't go, if you don't go, I'll go by myself! Yang Yuhuan said and walked up the mountain!

"Don't, I'll go with you!" Zhao Ziliang was worried that something would happen to her if she went up the mountain alone, so he immediately shouted. He also ordered his guards to stay at the foot of the mountain for the time being and wait for them to return, and he hurriedly followed Yang Yuhuan to climb up the Khan Mountain.

At this time, it is already September, although the temperature is not low, but after going up the snowy mountain, it is obvious that the temperature is slowly dropping, and the higher you go, the lower the temperature.

After climbing nearly 1,200 meters or so, Yang Yuhuan was already out of breath, and he was a little shivering due to the low temperature, Zhao Ziliang immediately took out a prepared sheepskin short suit and handed it to her to wear, and she felt better when she put on the sheepskin short.

Zhao Ziliang looked up, he was afraid that there were still more than two thousand meters from the top of the mountain, and he was afraid that it would take some time to climb up, so he said to Yang Yuhuan: "Why don't you take a rest first, and wait until you have recovered some strength before leaving?" ”

"It's fine!" Yang Yuhuan swallowed a somewhat dry throat and said, and continued to climb the mountain after speaking.

Zhao Ziliang saw a small tree next to him, and immediately walked over and pulled out a knife to cut the small tree, cut it into two canes after three strokes and five divisions, and chased after Yang Yuhuan: "Wait a minute, take this, you can explore the way, don't look at the snowflakes everywhere here, in fact, many locations are dangerous, use this to explore the way, don't step on the air!" Second, it can fix the body and effectively prevent falling! ”

Yang Yuhuan took the cane with a smile and said, "Okay, this cane is quite practical!" ”

"I'll go ahead, you just follow me!" Zhao Ziliang was still not at ease, so he walked in front of Yang Yuhuan to explore the way.

After walking for another kilometer or so, Yang Yuhuan really couldn't walk, she kept exhaling white steam, her lips were a little white and dry, maybe she was so thirsty that she couldn't stand it, she reached out and grabbed a ball of snow under her feet and was about to stuff it into her mouth.

Zhao Ziliang happened to look back, and immediately said, "Don't eat!" ”

Yang Yuhuan said: "I'm so thirsty! ”

Zhao Ziliang immediately walked over and grabbed her hand and threw the snow on the ground, saying: "The snow in this snow mountain has not melted for many years, the cold is too great, it doesn't matter if a man eats some because of the yang energy in his body, but the woman herself is yin, and eating cold food is easy to cause stomach cold!" Come, drink some water! After speaking, he took out a water bag from his waist and handed it to Yang Yuhuan.

Yang Yuhuan took the water bag and opened the stopper to take a sip, swallowed it and said in surprise: "This ・・・・・・ is so cold here, why is the water in this water bag still hot?" ”

Zhao Ziliang smiled: "Wearing it closely, of course it's hot!" ”

Yang Yuhuan didn't believe it, she wasn't brainless, the heat of this water was definitely higher than the human body temperature! She looked at Zhao Ziliang suspiciously, put the mouth of the water bag to her mouth again and drank the hot water slowly.

Zhao Ziliang observed left and right when Yang Yuhuan was drinking water, and a little abnormality on the edge of the cliff caught his attention, and he asked, "What kind of flower is that?" So white? ”

"Where?"

"There, on the edge of the cliff!"

Yang Yuhuan looked in the direction of Zhao Ziliang's finger, and saw that there were three white flowers growing on the edge of the cliff, only a few green leaves, if it weren't for these green leaves, I really couldn't see three flowers there, after all, there was snow everywhere, and white flowers growing in the snow couldn't be found at all.

"That's Snow Lotus!" Yang Yuhuan cheered and walked over quickly.

Zhao Ziliang followed up and asked, "This is Snow Lotus?" How is it white? ”

Yang Yuhuan ignored him at all, carefully took out a small pair of scissors to cut off the snow lotus, and packed it in a small wooden box.

In the blink of an eye, at noon, Yang Yuhuan had already picked three snow lotus plants and some cordyceps, and she said excitedly: "I didn't expect that there would be so many precious medicinal materials here!" ”

Zhao Ziliang looked up at the sky, the sun had reached the top of his head, and said, "It's noon, let's eat something first, and then continue after eating."

Yang Yuhuan was very satisfied with his harvest and said, "Okay! ”

Zhao Ziliang took out a bamboo lunch box and handed it to Yang Yuhuan, Yang Yuhuan took the lunch box and looked at it, and immediately smiled: "It turns out that bamboo can also be used to cook boxes, and lunch boxes can also be made like this!" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "This is the military lunch box of our Western Qin Army, one for half a year, whether it is a general or a soldier, everyone has one, carry it with you!" ”

Yang Yuhuan opened it and saw that a wave of heat rose, and the lunch box contained some rice, a few pieces of meat, and some vegetable leaves, for Yang Yuhuan, who was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, this thing was too simple, but at this time she ate with relish.

Suddenly, she stopped, looked at Zhao Ziliang and said, "We have been out for a long time, and we are all on this mountain, it stands to reason that the food has long been cold, why is it still hot now?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said without changing his face: "The lunch box can be kept warm to a certain extent."

"Really?" Yang Yuhuan still didn't believe it.
