Mixed in with the flow of people, Xiao Shenyan led Xiao Mo and Xiao Yi to walk quickly towards the west of the city, where there was a carriage and horse shop, where the three of them could hire a carriage or two, and then leave the city. Mobile Quick Reading: .1. The text version debuted

Xiao Shenyan has collected countless books in his life, many of which are precious ancient books, but because they are too bulky, he just selected the most valuable two or three books, and he personally carried them.

The three of them walked silently among the crowds, looking at Xiao Mo, who seemed to be very silent from beginning to end, Xiao Shenyan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly sighed and asked, "Mo'er, do you hate the fourth grandfather and me?" If it weren't for the fourth grandfather and me, you wouldn't have been forced to leave the Xiao family. ”

Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "This matter, the Xiao family is just a victim of political struggles from beginning to end, it doesn't matter and there is no power to resist, if you want to hate me, you will only use Zhang Qian of the Xiao family, hate Sikong Min, who designed my Xiao family, hate ...... Hate myself for not having the strength to protect the Xiao family. ”

Hearing Xiao Mo say this, Xiao Shenyan was slightly stunned, obviously he didn't expect Xiao Mo to respond like this, looking at Xiao Mo's calm and resolute appearance, Xiao Mo is still Xiao Mo, but Xiao Shenyan always feels that the person in front of him is completely different from Xiao Mo back then.

Xiao Mo, who had no desires and no desires, and only thought about dying in peace, seemed to have gradually disappeared.

Xiao Mo turned his head again and glanced in the direction of the Xiao family's courtyard, turned his head, as if he didn't want to continue on this topic any longer, looked at the bustling street, and suddenly asked, "Fourth Grandpa, do we still have time?" Or do you have to leave now? ”

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Shenyan shook his head and said: "We left with the Xiao family's side branch just now, even if there are Sikong Min's spies near the Xiao family, there won't be too many, so no one will follow us, we just need to leave before the city gate closes, not to leave immediately, what, do you have anything else to prepare?" ”

Xiao Mo shook his head and said, "No, Fourth Grandfather, can you take me around Changzhi City before the city gate closes?" ”

Xiao Shenyan was slightly stunned, and then remembered that in the eleven years of Xiao Mo's life, he had spent all his time in the Xiao family's compound, and he had never seen the outside world, and he was about to leave at this time, probably because he wanted to take a look at the city where he had lived for eleven years.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Shenyan nodded in agreement.

So, Xiao Mo and the others began to slow down, walking towards the west of the city while watching the scene in Changzhi City.

Dachu has been prosperous for more than 160 years, although the common people pay heavier taxes, but under the stability of a hundred years, the city still seems to be prosperous, although it is close to evening, but the streets are still full of people, all kinds of shops are complete, although it is only a small northern city in Dachu, but its noisy and lively place, is still far beyond Xiao Mo's imagination.

In Changzhi City, the south of the city is full of residential areas, while the west of the city is more focused on commerce.

Xiao Mo just looked at the surrounding scene silently, without the excitement of seeing the market for the first time, nor the sadness of being about to separate, but occasionally sighed in his heart, from this moment on, he needed to completely integrate into this era, instead of sheltering under the wings of his grandfather and grandmother.

It's just that I don't know what kind of changes will happen to me the next time I return to this city?

Just as Xiao Mo was strolling around, the carriage and horse shop was about to arrive, and suddenly, in the flow of people, the conversation between two people not far from Xiao Mo came into his ears, which also attracted Xiao Mo's attention.

"Mr. Wen, this Changzhi City is worthy of the name of long-term peace and stability, I thought it was just a small northern city, it should be sparsely populated, and the market was not prosperous, but I didn't expect it to be a little prosperous, and between the prosperity, it is rare to see rogue thieves doing evil in it, this Changzhi City's Taishou Sun Rang is also a capable official."

The one who spoke was a young man of the same age as Xiao Mo, because he was in front of Xiao Mo, he didn't see his face, but he was richly dressed, his voice was warm, his temperament was noble and reserved, and he was behind the famous family at first glance.

Next to the young man, there was a middle-aged scribe, his usual figure and usual clothes were not noticeable, but the young man seemed to respect him very much.

I only heard Mr. Wen say: "Indeed, compared with most of the current literati officials who can only talk about poetry, this Sun Rang can do some practical things, but the stability of Changzhi City is the same as the folk customs since ancient times, and it has nothing to do with him." Speaking of which, there is an interesting anecdote, do you know what this city is named 'Changzhi' means? ”

"Doesn't that mean long-term peace?"

"Haha, everyone thinks so, but in fact, the so-called 'long-term rule' means long-term governance. It is rumored that Taizu unified the world and won every battle, but the people of this Changzhi city were fierce, and Taizu attacked for ten days before conquering it, but after the army entered the city, the residents of this city not only did not cooperate, but attacked the army under the command of Taizu many times at night, so that Taizu was overwhelmed, and angrily said that "the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, and the people of this city need our army to govern for a long time", so it has the name of "Changzhi". Later, in order to stabilize the city, Taizu forcibly moved the residents to Nanzhou, and moved the people of Nanzhou here, and the people of Nanzhou have a gentle personality since ancient times, and since then the city of Changzhi has really stabilized. Later, the historian felt that Taizu's words were not lenient, and after Taizu's consent, he changed this statement to 'May this city be peaceful for a long time', so later generations understood it in this way. ”

"Oh? In other words, most of the people in this city are ancestors from Nanzhou? ”

"Yes, in addition to their gentle personalities, the people of Nanzhou are also good at business, and the north of this city is bordered by grasslands, and there are furs and horses traded from time to time, so they are more prosperous than other northland cities."

Listening to the conversation between the two people, Xiao Mo was puzzled, the knowledge and temperament of these two people were secondary, but the casual tone in which they talked about being too punctual, it seemed that their identity was much higher than that of a city guard, if so, this young man would not be so simple after a simple famous family.

However, why did a person from such a background suddenly appear in the small city of Changzhi?

"After Sikong Min comes here tomorrow, it is estimated that it will be more lively, but it's a pity. This long-term and stable city is destined to be unpeaceful for some time to come......"

Just when Xiao Mo was puzzled in his heart, suddenly, when the third prince said this, Xiao Mo's body couldn't help but be shocked, forgetting the excitement around him, and pretending to approach the two inadvertently, wanting to hear the conversation between the two more clearly.

However, at this moment, a person suddenly stood sideways in front of Xiao Mo, the two collided with each other, Xiao Mo was unstable on his footing, and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately he was held by Xiao Yi next to him.

Xiao Mo looked up, but saw a big man with a cold temperament and a strong figure blocking him at some point, and at this moment he was looking at him with a look of scrutiny and vigilance, and at the same time, Xiao Mo noticed that it seemed that there was not only such a strong man secretly watching him with this kind of eyes.

Looking around, Xiao Mo was shocked to see that there were many men with similar temperaments but different costumes, who seemed to be unintentionally protecting Mr. Wen and the third prince in the middle.

Xiao Mo frowned, glanced at Xiao Shenyan, and then stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Yi, who was about to go to theorize, and turned around to walk to the side.

However, at this moment, the young man who was called the third prince showed the situation here, glared at the strong man who had bumped into Xiao Mo before, and then turned his head to Xiao Mo and asked, "This friend, are you okay?" ”
