Chapter Fifty-Eight: How Wonderful, Boy!
U8 update fastest reading network The next morning, when Xu was sent away crying, Chun Tu nested in the house and pretended to sleep, not caring about the etiquette of sending each other.
At the beginning of the third day (seven o'clock in the morning), Chun Dashan took her and Guo'er to the official road outside the town to meet each other, met Kang Zhengyuan and others, and began the prison patrol tour in Youzhou.
Han Wuxing naturally came to see him off, but it was an official act, so he didn't speak alone with Chun Tuyi. He wore a formal officer's uniform, that is, a squeeze uniform, the main color was black, but the forehead was red, and the corners and sleeves of the clothes were embroidered with patterns similar to auspicious runes, because the grade did not reach the third grade, and there was no inheritance, but there was no embroidered jackal, tiger, leopard, eagle falcon and other beasts of prey. But in spite of this, when he rode on that big white horse, he was as good as a god of wind and jade, and his posture was heroic.
Chun Tu watched quietly on the side, and could only sigh in his heart: How beautiful, boy!
In comparison, Kang Zhengyuan is much more low-key, wearing a dark green official uniform, a silver belt and a crown, also because the grade is relatively low, and he is not worthy of a fish bag. I have to say that the dark green color matches his slightly pale complexion very well, and his lazy and playful expression and the strange combination of his serious official uniform give people an involuntary sense of trust, and they will feel that he must be discerning.
Chun Tu had no choice but to sigh again: How beautiful, boy!
And she, low-key wearing a gray narrow-sleeved beard suit, like a little mouse, hidden behind the Spring Mountain. Although it is men's clothing, she does not hide her gender, because Datang women often wear men's clothes, but they do not look particularly eye-catching. She also wore a hat with a thick gauze on her head, Chun Dashan didn't want people to see his daughter more, but Chun Tu was trying to shield her from the wind and sand. Beside her was a blue men's skit, she grew late, and she was fourteen years old, and she was dressed neatly at this time, looking like a little boy.
Historically, the Earth's climate has had several particularly warm periods, and Datang is in one of them. Therefore, the winter in the north is not particularly cold. Even if this group of people first went on official business near Fanyang, and then went deep into the southern part of Liaodong County and the northern part near Goryeo, they would encounter heavy snow, but it was still much more comfortable than minus twenty or thirty degrees in the deep winter of later generations.
In this era, there was no cotton, and winter clothes were woven thick textiles, and when it was cold, a few more pieces were worn, or so-called cotton clothes filled with kapok fibers. Such clothes are naturally not as light and warm as cotton wool. But in Datang, there is not even a cotton word next to the silk word, all of them are edged with wooden words, and they can only be settled.
Chun Tu Yu herself is more afraid of the cold, and because she is in a hurry, she has no time to make it, so she only bought four pieces of "cotton clothes" from the ready-to-wear store, one for Guo'er and Chun Dashan, and two for her. In this way, she also considered going back and getting some duck down. Make your own winter clothing to wear.
As for the bedding, Chun Dashan thinks that the girl's house should not use the outside. So after a while, I brought out two sets, and when the time came, they were spread on the original bedding of the house, which was warm and clean. As for shoes and hats, Guo Er brought needles and threads and materials with him, and planned to do them as he walked.
Han Wuxing seems to be rude, but he is careful and considerate, and he only found out after Chun Tu Yu hit the road. He didn't know where to find a team of merchants who were going to go to various parts of Youzhou to collect New Year's goods and do business before the year, so he fell behind the team. The owner of this caravan has the surname Qian, except for the boss and a few guys. They were accompanied by the proprietress and a rough mother-in-law surnamed Li, and Chun Tu and Guo Er were arranged to sit in a car with these two aunts, so that adult married women could take care of them.
Boss Qian's family was happy to have the opportunity to accompany the army of the officials, not to mention the fact that they could stay in the pavilion, but also ensured safety. Although the pavilion does not accept civilians, no one will say anything if they give out some money in private. This was a common thing, but they knew that it was the light of spring, so they were very polite and thoughtful to her.
In the whole team of guards, fifty people opened the way in front, Kang Zhengyuan's seat frame was in the center, and another fifty people were behind. Chun Dashan and the three Eclectic Mansion guards, who were said to be personal bodyguards, fell further behind, closer to the caravan. To put it bluntly, it is to protect the spring crops nearby.
However, before the group had gone five miles, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind, and it did not stop until it reached the carriage in which Chun Tu Yu was riding. Chun Tu Yu was a little nervous at first, after all, she had not been far away since she traveled to the ancient Tang Dynasty, but she casually realized that the Chunda Mountain Gang that was protected nearby did not send a warning, so she knew that the person who came must be familiar, so she asked Aunt Li to open the curtain. As a result, Han Wuxing's handsome face appeared, and his teeth were white and dangling.
Han ...... Lord Han, what are you? Chun Tu was surprised, and then hurriedly pointed out kindly, "My father is in front." She thought that Han Wuxing had forgotten to explain something important, so she came to find Chun Dashan.
Han Wuxing blinked, and only said, "At Boss Qian's, there is a small box that was given to you by Captain Bendu, don't forget to look at it." After saying that, he put two fingers into his mouth, whistled loudly, led the horse's head, and galloped away.
Chun Tu Yu was very dazed, and he didn't understand what Han Wuxing's headless sentence meant, what did he mean by coming and going like this? She looked at Aunt Qian and Aunt Li, and saw that the two aunts were smiling ambiguously, which made her difficult to ask, but she wanted to say loudly: I have nothing to do with that handsome guy, it is a very pure relationship between the family members of the subordinates and the superiors. And the people on the side didn't understand it, and even Chun Dashan, who was watching from a distance, thought that Han Wuxing had come to ask his daughter to help Master Kang well, so he didn't come forward to ask.
The first stop was very smooth, and in the evening, the group arrived at a pavilion.
The official roads of the Tang Dynasty extend in all directions, with complete facilities, and some prosperous areas even have more than two official roads. According to the calculation of the number of pavilions, there must be about 60,000 or 70,000 kilometers of official roads, although there is no way to compare with modern times, but the important state capitals, the passage is very convenient.
On both sides of the official road, in addition to the official pavilions, there are corresponding mansions, that is, inns, which are privately owned, and are dedicated to entertaining passing civilians and caravans. The lodge requires an official paperwork, which is a kind of paper voucher. Kang Zhengyuan is not an ordinary imperial envoy, naturally someone went to negotiate in advance, and then the official in charge of the pavilion came to greet him and invited him to the best building. The rest of the soldiers and their entourage will be arranged in a nearby room.
The scale of the pavilion post in the Tang Dynasty was very large, including post towers, post stables, post halls and post warehouses, so many people poured in together, and they could live completely open. Kang Zhengyuan did not give her special treatment in order not to make the spring too dazzling. But the post officer was a clever man, and he ushered in the one who was sent there, and he had already exercised his eyes. From Kang Zhengyuan's words, I heard the implicit meaning, the room arranged for Chun Dashan's father and daughter was second-class, and the two rooms next door.
Winter is short, and by the time everyone moved into the inn, it was already completely dark. Because they had to leave early the next morning, they did not unload their carts, but only unloaded their mules and horses, and let the rough servants wait. Then they took what they had with them and ate their own meals.
Chun Tu and Chun Dashan father and daughter ate with Boss Qian's family, although it was not as fine as Kang Zhengyuan, but because Boss Qian made silver, it was also very good. It includes a large plate of boiled mutton, a large pot of mustard greens, celery and radishes, a large plate of stir-fried Chinese cabbage (the predecessor of Chinese cabbage), and a steamed Kunlun melon sprinkled with a special seasoning. The staple food is a plate of white and fat, soft steamed cakes.
To the surprise of Chun Tu, the so-called Kunlun melon turned out to be an eggplant! Because it is not yet widely cultivated. The price is more expensive. Out-of-season vegetables are also stored in vegetable cellars, and ordinary people can't afford to eat them at all.
The blessing of the boss of the money. Chun Tu ate her favorite eggplant in her previous life. She loves this vegetable, also known as courgette, no matter how she cooks it, whether it's burned, steamed, fried, or stuffed. Chun Dashan and Boss Qian saw her preferences and clamped her one by one. Then she found that Datang's attention to people is very hygienic, and chopsticks are used to pick up vegetables for others.
Eaten. Seeing that Boss Qian's family had tiredness on their faces, it looked like they were going to sleep, so they hurriedly hurried up. asked Boss Qian about the small box entrusted by someone surnamed Han.
Boss Qian patted his head and said, "Look at my memory." That was entrusted by Lord Han, I didn't dare to slack off, and I didn't put it in one place with the goods, Miss Chun, etc., I will personally send it to you. ”
Chun Tu thanked him, explained which one he lived in, and went back to wait. Chun Dashan then asked what the box was all about.
"Lord Han said that it was given to me, and I may have forgotten it when I saw it off, but I caught up later, just for this matter." Chun Tu replied calmly and honestly.
Chun Dashan's heart moved slightly, thinking about whether his boss was a little more enthusiastic about Tu Yu. Although he wants to be promoted and show his talent in the army, he will definitely not sell his daughter for glory. Han Wuxing has a high position, he will inherit the title as the king in the future, and it is rumored in the army that he will take over as the governor of Youzhou in the future, although he is a good person, an absolute young talent, but he is too far away from his own status, and he can't make friends or relatives, so it's better to keep a distance. If Han Wuxing had other ideas, he would rather die than let his daughter be a concubine.
Besides, what should I do if I want to get in touch with a noble person and be discovered by the Bai family?
When he thought about it, he thought too much. Immediately, he felt that it might be Han Wuxing's love for talent, after all, Han Wuxing did not have bad rumors in the army, and on the whole, he was a decent and promising young man.
But with this concern, he didn't go back immediately, but went into his daughter's room, and didn't indicate that he wanted to look at the box together, but only chirped and said, "Tired, right?" After a while, I took something and went to bed early. It's hard to get in a car, and you've never been far away. ”
Chun Tu Yu really had a sore back, but seeing that Chun Dashan was afraid that she and Han Wuxing would receive private teaching, he felt funny, but he didn't expose it, and only smiled, "Isn't it." But going out with my dad still feels like it's worth it. ”

…………… 66 Have something to say...............
To reiterate again, in the Tang Dynasty, women were called ladies, and as for young ladies and girls, they were to get close to everyone's reading habits. Aunt Chun said that there was no pressure on this.
Also, although there is no case in this chapter, it is super difficult to write, 66 carefully checked a lot of information, hoping to have an original feeling, so that everyone can understand the customs of that era as much as possible. To put it bluntly, this article is just an empty character, but the historical background is real.
