It's like a stream trekking through the vast dry season, bringing with it a fragrance and sweetness like never before

============================

It is more than 500 miles from Shangjing to Wuguo City, and there are two days of journey. After the station, there was no rest.

It's been a day, never ridden for such a long time, Jane Wei only felt that her legs were sore and unbearable, and when she got off the horse, it seemed that she had become a looped leg.

When she saw the attendants take out the rice flatbread and air-dried beef, she instantly felt that her head was big, the meat was hard, and the flatbread was rough, all of which were blindly dry and difficult to swallow.

Immediately, he shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry, you can eat." ”

Wan Yanliang glared at her: "You also said so at noon." I don't want to take a dead man on the road. ”

He pretended to think and said, "Or I put you here, the Jurchens have always sought their own spouses, and they snatched them when they saw the right one." Maybe someone who doesn't have long eyes will take you away. ”

Janeway hatefully took the flatbread and took a bite hard.

Wan Yanyong looked at them, smiling and silent.

When the night came, a fire rose in the woods, and there were many beasts in the woods, and one of the guards came back from hunting hares, and roasted them on the fire, and Janeway smelled the fragrance and leaned over. Although she is a Han woman, Liang Yong and the others are polite to her, so the attendants are a little careful about her.

Wan Yanliang saw that she was very close to the guard, and he was displeased, so he pulled her over and said, "Be careful to burn your robe, but there is no place to change it." ”

She hated him so roughly, although it was a concerned tone, but she didn't pity Xiangyu at all, but she didn't want to mess with him, she just sat back obediently, but deliberately sat the farthest.

The rabbit was roasted quickly, she got a leg, the spray was fragrant and tender, and the mouth was fragrant between chewing, and she couldn't help but say with satisfaction: "Although it is not as good as Wei Zhuang's, it is also excellent." ”

Wan Yanyong repeated: "Wei Zhuang? ”

She knew that she was speechless, but fortunately, her brain turned quickly and said, "It's a restaurant in Kaifeng." ”

After eating, several guards raised two fires next to each other, and in this place, only the three of them remained. The beeping sound of the wood burning, the color of the firelight from the bright place in the center all the way to the exterior, she only heard Yan Yong whisper: "I heard that Uncle Wang is going to be promoted." ”

He is talking about Wan Yan Liang's father, Wan Yan Zonggan, the adoptive father of today's Jin Guoxi Zong.

Speaking of this Wanyan Zonggan, I have to talk about the marriage customs of the Jin people.

Roughly speaking, the marriage of the Jurchen is very similar to the customs of the Xiongnu, "The father dies, and the wife is the stepmother; When a brother dies, he takes his wife. "It has strict rules and succession sequences. In fact, this kind of step-marriage is not only a marriage system, but also an important part of the identity inheritance system and a maintenance system.

Wanyan Zonggan is the eldest son of Wanyan Aguta, and Jin Xizong's father Wanyan Zongjun is the eldest son of Aguda and the fifth son. After his death, Zonggan took his wife Fucha as the eldest brother and became Wanyan Kang's adoptive father.

Fucha is graceful and flamboyant, intelligent and decent. Wanyan Zonggan is very fond of Wanyan and his mother, and even better than Wanyan Liang.

Wanyan Kang's succession to the throne was, on the one hand, his mother's attraction to Wanyan Zonghan, and on the other hand, it was also the result of Wanyan Zonggan's efforts.

Wan Yanliang said with a smile: "Uncle Siwang is also coming back for this, it seems that this time there is a lot of excitement." "Jin Wushu is the fourth son of Wanyan Agu, so Liangyong and the two of them privately call him the fourth uncle.

Wan Yanyong sighed and said: "If chaos rises again, it will be a misery." ”

Wan Yan Yong's father, Wan Yan Zongyao, was the third son of Wan Yan Aguta, and after his death, Wan Yan Yong's mother was unwilling to marry someone else, so she invited herself to become a monk after Wan Yan Yong entered the military camp.

Wan Yanliang raised his eyebrows, and his smile deepened: "Since ancient wars, the winner is the king, and the loser is the villain." If these eight wildernesses in Kyushu are not one master, how can chaos be avoided. ”

Jian Wei couldn't help but interject and laughed: "If the master is like a supreme leader, I am afraid that the dispute will be more victorious, but it is better to be under the whole world, everyone is the master, and it is easier for everyone to pay attention to the law and ignore the imperial power." ”

Wan Yanyong was fresh when he heard this: "You are a little interesting." ”

Jian Wei smiled lightly: "Little meaning, small meaning." ”

A few birds were startled in the woods, and the attendant next to them looked at them in surprise.

In the afternoon of the next day, the group finally arrived at the Five Nations City.

This city of the Five Kingdoms was the city of the Jurchen Five Kingdoms Alliance, a total of five cities, and was later collectively called the City of the Five Kingdoms. Qinzong: They are located in the first city of the Five Kingdoms, Yueliji City.

When I entered the city, I found that this place was very different from what I remembered.

Although the city is still the boxy appearance in memory, it is a lot more lively, many vendors who are obviously dressed as Song people, and the street is also quite bustling.

She sat on her horse and looked at both sides in amazement.

Wan Yanliang looked at her confused appearance and said, "The Five Kingdoms City is stable and naturally prosperous. In the past, more than 140 nobles of the Song Kingdom came to this city, which also added some popularity. Emperor Taizong was merciful, and the prison magistrate's office and the prison barracks were ordered, as long as they were in this city, they were still free, and they could make friends. As if he knew her question, he added: "The territory of the Dajin Kingdom is vast, and their escape to the south is tantamount to killing themselves. ”

"What if you go north?" Janeway thought that the border to the north was close at hand.

Wan Yanyong replied on the side: "To the north is a bitter cold place, even our prudent ancestors have no way to survive, and I heard that there are demons of wind and snow in the north, and they are frozen for thousands of miles." And those who go, and none of them come back alive, what is the difference between them fleeing and being sent to death? ”

That's right, Janeway nodded, the vast territory of Siberia, the frozen soil turns into a swamp in summer, and the cold is minus forty in winter, and there are snow wolves, bears and leopards.

"I heard an old man in the village say that there is also a group of blue-eyed monsters in the north, who drink human blood." Wan Yanliang added that in the past two days, as long as he has less shelves, the three of them can sometimes talk about speculation.

Janeway couldn't help but smile when she heard his troubled tone, if the Russians were monsters, then they would not be scared to death when they arrived in Europe. Sure enough, it's rare and weird.

Wan Yanliang heard her laughter, strained his hand, tightened her waist, and asked dissatisfiedly, "What are you laughing at?" Am I not right? ”

She cleared her throat, "Of course you're right. Have you ever heard of it, going all the way north, there are only two seasons, the sun never sets in summer, and when winter comes, there is darkness day and night overhead, and at this time, the rainbow transforms into thousands of ribbons and dances in the air. "She's talking about the aurora.

He was attracted by her description, but his mouth was not convinced: "It's nonsense again, how do you know." ”

Jian Wei said unconvinced: "Why don't I know, I am also an intellectual young man. ”

"What's at the end of the north side?" Wan Yanliang asked.

"At the end of the north is an ocean, covered with snow all year round, and at the end of the ice and snow is an endless ocean, and there are many continents and islands in the ocean." Her answer was simple, but it sounded so incredible.

Wan Yanyong turned his head sideways and looked at this girl in surprise, she suddenly smiled mischievously, he instantly understood, thinking that she was just nonsense, and laughed too.

Wan Yanliang still asked unrelentingly: "Then, are those blue-eyed monsters real?" ”

"Of course ......," she said in a lengthened voice, "...... No. There are no monsters, have you seen the orchids of the Western Regions, they are just aliens. ”

"How do you know?" He asked her suspiciously, believing it in his heart.

"Me." Jian Wei unconsciously pulled the long ear protector hanging down from his felt hat with one hand, and said slowly, "I won't tell you." ”

Wan Yanliang was about to get angry, he glared at her, only to see that her eyelashes were as long and thick as wings, the skin on her face was extremely white, and the sun shone on her face, as if she could see the fine fluff. His gaze softened imperceptibly, blood slowly surged up his throat, and he finally couldn't help but reach out and touch her porcelain-like face.

Wan Yanyong listened to her serious nonsense, and said with a smile on the side: "Talking nonsense for a long time, it seems to be true." You're really not afraid that we'll get angry and give you some color. ”

Jian Wei immediately answered: "Then please ask the general to give me some gold to see, the little woman is penniless now, I am afraid that I will have to rely on storytelling to get by." ”

Wan Yanyong smiled again. He likes to laugh very much, and when he smiles, his eyes are slightly curved, making people feel bright.

Jian Wei felt that the bright smile was dazzling, and she couldn't help but sit upright, just as she bumped into Wan Yanliang's hand, and his hand retracted suddenly.
