Chapter 016: Into the City
Just snorted a few words, Ying Xuan raised his hand and gave himself a mouthful: That's a red rabbit horse, not a little donkey!
In the blink of an eye, the other three disappeared from view, and he hurried after them.
The three of them stopped at an intersection, Yingxuan looked at the four-way intersection, there were clear horseshoe marks in the east and south directions, and it seemed that someone had just walked by.
"The three adults have gone back separately, so let's go too." Li Xinfang said, clamped the horse's belly and walked due north.
Ying Xuan didn't immediately follow, he tried to remember the map again. Li Bo once told him that Sun Chao and Shu had been monitoring the Liu family's every move in Chang'an, and Peng Xian had not been idle, and had been active in Shouchun, which was the capital of Huainan Kingdom, and the youngest son of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was sealed in that place.
Chang'an is in the east, Shouchun is in the southeast, and the county seat of Xixian County in Longxi County is in the north of all evils.
"Young master, hurry up!" Zhang Jing's voice woke him up, and he forgot Dongfang again and sighed: Chang'an, I want to see you sooner or later. Thinking about it, he pulled the reins and turned the horse's head very reluctantly.
Of course, the red rabbit horse is still following behind in a fart.
It's summer, and the closer it gets to noon, the hotter the weather gets, and Yingxuan is no longer in the mood to enjoy the scenery on the journey. What's even more unfortunate is that the other three rarely speak along the way, which is more painful for Ying Xuan than the hot weather.
Zhang Jing has always been like this, and it is difficult for her to take the initiative to speak. Li Xinfang often travels all over the world, should be well-informed, and should have been a good candidate for chatting, but Ying Xuan gave up after thinking about it repeatedly. In the end, he could only extend his claws to Li Xinyi behind Li Xinfang.
"Little ghost, you've never been out before, how do you feel?" Ying Xuan forgot that he was only four years older than Li Xinyi.
Li Xinyi wiped the sweat with the back of his hand, frowned and said, "It's not as good as I imagined, I regret it a little." He rushed to Li Xinfang in front of him and asked, "Sister, how long will it take to get to the county seat?" ”
Li Xinfang slowed down his speed and said with concern: "It's fast, Xinyi, the weather is hot and dry, you have to be patient for a while." ”
Ying Xuan saw that the opportunity had come, and took the opportunity to interject: "Xinfang, you should have been to the county seat, what is it like there, are there many fun places?" ”
The purpose of his coming to the county seat is to play, what to broaden his horizons, long knowledge, etc. are all excuses, in the face of bad weather, he has the idea of retreating, and urgently needs Li Xinfang to give him a booster.
"Xinfang?"
"Xinfang?"
……
Ying Xuan grimaced at Li Xinfang's back, and scolded thousands of times in his heart. He angrily waved his horsewhip, slapped his horse and rushed in front of Li Xinfang, and then ......
Then a signature smile is revealed, and it is tooth-baring. "Sister Fang, just tell me!" As soon as he finished speaking, he was excited, and goosebumps all over his body.
Li Xinfang covered her mouth and snickered, of course she was not the only one, Li Xinyi's little ghost even laughed out loud, Zhang Jing respected herself, and her little face was flushed.
Ying Xuan had completely let go at this time, and he shouted, what kind of posture can you take me, and puffed up his chest: "Sister Fang, let's talk about it, you said that you have been to many places, it won't be all lies." ”
The method of agitation has always worked, but it was Li Xinyi, a little ghost, who was the first to speak: "Sister won't lie to people, don't say anything about Chang'an, Shouchun, it's Nanyue, my sister has been there." ”
Hearing Nanyue, Li Xinfang's face appeared a crimson, that time to go to Nanyue was completely her father's will, she didn't want to go at all. "The county town naturally can't be compared with Chang'an and others, but it's much more lively than the grassland."
Ying Xuan was overjoyed in his heart, it was good to be lively, and his favorite thing was to be lively. It's just that I don't know if there is such a place as "Qinglou" in the small county town of the Western Han Dynasty, he is not se, he is just curious, and wants to see this kind of place, after all, he is also one of the young people who were poisoned by the TV series.
Isn't curiosity the source of human progress?
"That, that, there's a ...... in the county Is there a green house? Ying Xuan said very quietly, the voice almost came out of his throat, no matter how thick his face was, it was a disgraceful thing in the end.
"Here we are, here we are!" Li Xinfang cheered, turned around and said to Yingxuan, "What did you just say?" ”
Ying Xuan waved his hand weakly and took the lead in pulling the reins into the county seat.
He was stunned!
Is this also called hilarious? On both sides of the street are teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, post shops and other shops, but most of them are crowded, and business is extremely poor. Even the pedestrians on the road are only a handful, which is completely different from the scene in his dream.
"Are you sure this is the county seat?" Ying Xuan still didn't give up, although he knew that there must be an error between the rumors and reality, but the error was too big, it was simply a heel of Sun Wukong.
Li Xinfang didn't pay attention to Yingxuan, she wanted to look at Zhang Jing and her younger brother running around, these two people were completely attracted by the prosperity of the county, but she didn't understand why Yingxuan came to the county seat with a sad face.
Ying Xuan sighed deeply, stroked Chitu's head, and thought: I have always taken it for granted, now it is the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, and the world has not been reunified soon, where can the economy be better. After the death of Lu Pheasant, after the rule of Wenjing, it was only during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the Western Han Dynasty reached his peak, but unfortunately he was afraid that he would not be able to see it.
After thinking about it, he cleaned up his mood and joined the hillbilly army entering the city. After walking around the street for a while, I really gained a lot. There were a lot of strange knick-knacks he had never seen before, and the shortbread, which looked quite bumpy but tasted delicious, and he even packed a few with him.
After eating and drinking enough, everyone was still not satisfied, and unanimously decided to continue the walk, but it was really inconvenient to have to lead four horses all the time, well, he also admitted that it was three horses and a small donkey.
Li Xinfang often went far away, and soon came up with an idea - to stay first. According to her, there are two kinds of inns in the world. One is called a post house, which was originally used to transmit official documents and military information, but if someone is willing to pay a high price, they are also happy to let guests live there. The post house is a government agency, and the advantage is that the room condition is very good, which is suitable for the wealthy to consume. The other is called a post shop, although the difference is one word, but it is very different. The rooms in the inns were small and unhygienic, and the poor people of the lower classes generally lived here.
"Don't look at me, I must live in the inn!" Facing Li Xinfang's inquiring gaze, Ying Xuan said categorically. He is also a person with status, and it is not too much to live in a post house.
Li Xinfang said helplessly: "Of course you have to live in the post house as the young master, but does the young master have a accommodation certificate?" ”
"What credentials?"
Li Xinfang and the three of them took out a small wooden sign from their arms: "Today, the emperor has an order, and he doesn't want to stay without a certificate, I'm sorry young master, I'm afraid you can only stay on the street for one night!" ”
