Speaking of the king level, it has now reached the junction of Liaoxi County and Pingzhou. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Liaoxi Taishou, oh, now change his name to Da Yin Tian Tan, say goodbye to him, turn the horse's head, Tian Tan has returned to Da Yin Mansion.

The king looked at his team, in front of him and the five marshals who held the banner, as well as Li Tong, and behind was the cavalry team of the guards, there were not many people and horses, just 100 horses.

The king looked at the sky, although the autumn was high and cool, but the wind seemed to be very strong. Although it was just past mid-autumn, it was already feeling cold. The king didn't want to go to Pingzhou in the winter, so he ordered to speed up and get to Pingzhou Mansion as soon as possible.

After a while, the king came to the top of a wide gray-white road, which was wide and long, and the trees planted on both sides had been planted for several years, and it seemed that this road should have been a few years old. The branches of the trees kept swaying with the north wind, and some of the lonely leaves on the trees were still attached and refused to jump down. On both sides of the big tree are endless fields, the king stretched his neck and looked carefully at the field, the rice field that had just been harvested, the rice stubble was clearly identifiable, but the farmers were scarce.

The king class traveled to the north, from time to time from the north came a carriage, the carriage ran fast, the sound of horses' hooves trampled on the hard road, the car was full, covered with cloth, it was not clear to see, occasionally someone looked at them twice, did not stop, waved the whip, "rack" with a shout, drove the horse to the south, to see the meaning to go to Liaoxi County.

The king walked forward for more than ten miles, resting on the side of the road. At this time, a car came from the opposite side, which seemed to be resting here, and two people walked down from the car, an old man in his fifties, and a young man probably less than thirty years old. One on the east side of the road and one on the west side of the road.

The old man was carrying a blue cloth bag, and I saw him take out two white flour cakes from the package, and also took out two pieces of dark red salted meat, and sandwiched them into the cakes respectively.

When they finished eating, the young man got into the car to get forage as if to feed the horses, and the old man took out the jar to drink water, and then the king came over and said, "The old man has worked hard, where are you going?" ”

The old man looked the king up and down, frowned, and said, "Are you a general, how do you dress in a colorful way, and why are you still stained with so many chicken feathers behind you?" ”

The king didn't get angry with him, nor did he explain much, and said lightly: "The old gentleman doesn't know, this is useful, I won't explain." I'm just asking where you're going? ”

The old man said: "Go to Liaoxi County, this year's rice has come down, so I can sell it there." ”

The king looked back at the old man's car, it was very high, and the car was also very big, it was actually four wheels. If it's all rice, it's so full, and you have to have five or six thousand catties.

Wang Ji smiled and said, "The old man has a lot of land, and he can sell so much grain." ”

The old man said disapprovingly: "What is this, this is what I harvested from 20 acres of rice, and my family planted 1,200 acres of land this year, which is nothing." ”

"Then you're a big family in the village, aren't you?"

"Where, our village and our family's land is basically the least, no way, there are few people, I don't want to plant too much land, it's too tiring."

"What, you said that you planted 1,200 acres of land is considered less, so don't you have all the food?"

"That's of course, who can eat how much grain, most of them are sold, I live close to Liaoxi County, this is not sold directly to Liaoxi County, by the way, buy some wheat back, our wheat is not as delicious as the children bought in Liaoxi." Although I said that I was used to growing rice, I was used to eating wheat rice, but I still couldn't get used to eating this rice, so I had to go to Liaoxi to buy it. ”

After the horse was fed the fodder, the old man didn't say much, got into the car, and was about to whip it and said, "General, there is a post station 10 miles ahead, you can go there to rest." ”

After speaking, he waved his horsewhip, and only heard a "snap" sound, and the carriage headed south.

Wang looked at the carriage in the distance, and wondered if this Pingzhou was really so rich?

The king got on his horse and continued to walk forward, and sure enough, there was a post station 10 miles ahead. The king took out the seal letter and handed it to the leader for review, and the leader saw that it was a man sent by the imperial court, so he immediately entertained him and sent someone to deliver the letter.

The next day a young officer, Company Commander Liu, led them straight to Xianwu City, and it is said that a general of Li Xiaoquan was responsible for receiving them.

Along the way, people have enough food and clothing, and there are more and more cars and horses on the road. After three days of walking, there were more cars and people on the road, and more people began to look at them, but they just looked at them, and turned to their own business.

It was dark very early here, and the king-level felt that it was probably the evening of Chang'an, and it was already dark here. Company Commander Liu rushed to his side and said, "General Wang, we will arrive at Xianwu City in front, and there are about 10 miles left." Do you think we are resting here, or are we resting in the county martial city? ”

The king thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Xianwu City." ”

It was already completely dark, and although Xianwu City was a little far away, the lights of Xianwu were already clearly visible. Wang Shi turned his head and asked Lian Chang Liu, "Why are the lights of Xianwu City so bright?" ”

Company Commander Liu said with a smile: "General Wang, you don't know, now is the busiest time of the year in Xianwu City, and many people are busy all night. Even if you arrive in the middle of the night, the city gates will not close, the restaurants will be open, and the hotels will be open. I don't believe you'll find out later. ”

The king hurried forward a few miles, and saw in the distance that there was a place where the lights were particularly high, and they were very bright, and in the dark night, it was like a guiding light. The king was surprised and asked, "Why is the light there so bright and so high?" I thought it was a star, but the closer I got, the more I realized it was a lamp. ”

Company Commander Liu smiled and said, "General, do you know that it is the lighthouse on the Liao River in our Xianwu City, guiding the ships at night to enter the port and guide the course. ”

The king asked with some confusion, "Is there a boat at night?" ”

Liu Lian Chang said: "Of course there is, now they are all going out day and night, it's almost winter, it's going to freeze, the grain here has to be transported to Luoyang, Chang'an, Handan and other places, we have a lot of grain here, if we don't sell it, it will be troublesome to transport it to these places when it freezes." So, be sure to get it out before the river freezes. ”

The king then asked, "Wait, can we go and see before entering Xianwu City?" ”

Company Commander Liu asked rhetorically, "Of course you can." Why does the general also want to do this business? ”

Wang nodded and said, "I just want to see." ”

The king-level team walked towards the lighthouse, and there was not much time, only to see the light getting brighter and brighter, and later found that it was not a light, but a firelight, from small to large, and the road surface became more and more clear.

Not only the lighthouse, but also a giant dragon formed by the light of fire in front of me, stretched for at least a few miles. The officer explained to the king that some were loading ships in the port, some were unloading in the port, and some were preparing to leave.
