Tang Xiaotang knew that in ancient times, the transmission of official documents relied on post stations, which were used in ancient times for people who passed official documents and military information or officials who came and went to eat and stay and change horses. It turned out that this long-distance carriage also had a rest station, and I couldn't help but be curious in my heart, and entered the courtyard to explore the layout and furnishings here, and looked east and west.

Tang Xiaotang because Ge Mingyuan likes historical and archaeological exploration, so he also learned some historical knowledge of dynasties.

The post station is the transportation organization for the government to receive guests and arrange government materials. The station is an organization that transmits important documents and military information, and is dedicated to the military system. The shop is led by the local department, state and county government, and is responsible for the delivery of official documents and letters. The shop is used to deliver official documents. All official documents exchanged between states and counties are transmitted by the delivery shop.

In the "General Essentials of the Five Classics" written by the Song Dynasty, it was mentioned that the post station set up on the Yingzhou Road in the Tang Dynasty: "Because of the one hundred and eighty li to the east, nine to the Yanjun City, from the Yanjun City to the east, through the Ruluo guard, across the Liao River 17 posts to the Andong Duhufu about 500 li."

Although there is no specific station name in the history books, it can be known that the setting of the post station in the Tang Dynasty has reached Liaodong. In the Liao Dynasty, a post station was set up between Zhongjing Dading Mansion and Tokyo Liaoyang Mansion, and there were 14 post houses.

However, at this time, the delivery shop and post station were under the leadership of the military department under the imperial court. The post house was supplied with food, lodging, carriages and horses for passing officials according to the standards set by the imperial court.

When will ordinary carriages and horses also be able to settle in and register in the post station?

With doubts, I entered the yard but hesitated and did not enter the house to register.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Seeing Tang Xiaotang with his head down and hesitating, Xiao Cui did not rush into the house with everyone in a hurry, both of them were left behind, and seeing that no one noticed him, Xiao Cui asked Tang Haitang in a low voice.

"Have you ever heard of a passenger car drawn by an ordinary mule to stay at a 'carinn'?" Tang Xiaotang was afraid that his knowledge of this dynasty was limited, so he seemed to ask to himself, but he wanted to confirm with Xiaocui in his heart.

"I haven't heard of it, but I haven't been far away......" Xiaocui shook her head and pondered the question asked by the young lady, but after thinking about it, she had never been far away, let alone taken a long-distance mule cart to go out to stay, and I really didn't know what the difference between a post station and an ordinary hotel was.

"What about the girl in pink?" Tang Xiaotang found that the girl in pink was missing from the few people who entered the yard, and then remembered that he hadn't seen her since he got out of the car.

Seeing that there was no girl in pink among the few people in front of him, Tang Xiaotang turned around and looked outside the courtyard, and happened to meet the girl in pink who entered the hospital with the coachman.

"These two sons, why are they standing in the courtyard? Hurry up and register, have a quick bite to eat, and rest early in the evening, we have to go early tomorrow morning! The coachman saw Tang Xiaotang and Xiaocui standing in the yard unhurriedly and looking, so he warmly beckoned the two into the house.

"Not busy, not busy, we have been in the car for a day, we haven't walked much, and we are not hungry, just standing in the yard for a while, straightening our waists and legs." Tang Xiaotang replied with a stiff smile.

In my heart, I was thinking about how to get out.

looked over the coachman, but saw the girl in pink with a playful smile, at this time, she was with her hands behind her back, pacing behind the coachman, looking at Tang Xiaotang.

"Hmmm! cough cough cough ...... "Tang Xiaotang wants to remind this girl in pink not to enter the house first." The coachman was in front of him, and it was inconvenient to say it clearly, so he pretended to cough.

"This young lady seems to have suffered from the wind and cold on the road, and I know that the young lady knows how to heal, I don't know if I can check the pulse of the next one?" Tang Xiaotang took a step forward towards the pink-clothed girl behind the coachman, and respectfully raised his hands and bowed slightly.

"Of course you can, let's go into the house, the arrangements are ready, and we will take the pulse in a down-to-earth manner." The girl in pink still agreed to Tang Xiaotang's request with a smile on her face. and raised his hand to signal Tang Xiaotang to follow him into the house.

He had clearly signaled her not to go in, but the girl in pink didn't seem to understand her intentions, and she smiled heartlessly, and asked herself to go into the house to arrange it properly and then check her pulse. can make Tang Xiaotang cry and laugh, and remind her like this, but she is good, this is not to hit the south wall and not look back.

Anyway, since they are all in, let's go in and see what kind of name it is, anyway, the food is used to be more careful, maybe I am suspicious in my heart, maybe this is just a name casually with a "post station", I think too much.

Tang Xiaotang used it to comfort his suspiciousness, and as the coachman and the girl in pink walked into the house, Xiaocui saw that Tang Xiaotang had entered the house with confidence, so he also followed into the house.

The girl in pink was arranged a separate room, and most of the other male guests lived in the kind of cheap rooms where more than a dozen people slept in the Chase Shop, Tang Xiaotang and Xiao Cui didn't dare to sleep in the Chase Shop, so they increased the price and opened a separate room for two people.

After the arrangements are made, they go back to their rooms.

After entering the room, Xiaocui hurriedly picked up the wooden basin and prepared to wash up. Tang Xiaotang stopped Xiao Cui, who was holding a basin and was about to go out to fetch water.

"Wait, let's see what's going on in this house."

"Miss, do you still suspect this? ......" Xiao Cui's spirit had just relaxed, and suddenly became nervous again. The tub was put back in his arms and he was back in his arms.

"Hey, you don't have to be so nervous." Xiaocui's nervous reaction made Tang Xiaotang happy. Shaking his head, he helplessly signaled her to put down the burden in her hand, and pulled her to sit on the kang and not move.

"You sit down first, and then put your things down. I'm just saying take a look, it's not really a problem. ”

Looking around the guest rooms, there is a kang with a kang table on the kang with a simple tea set and an oil lamp on the table. On one side of the kang against the wall is a row of crimson kang cabinets, all four of which have red copper doorknobs.

The door of the house is a wooden door that opens the door, and there are basin racks and wooden basins for washing at the door, and the wall is a rammed earth wall, and the windows in the house are very small and open very high, but they are all made of wooden lattice windows, and the lattice on the windows is very small and there is no curtain, and the wind blowing in is not very strong. You shouldn't have to worry about being calculated when you sleep at night, but without curtains and curtains, it will always make people feel insecure.

"Knock knock" three knocks on the door, Tang Xiaotang and Xiaocui were startled, and vigilantly did not open the door immediately.

"Knock knock" There were three more knocks on the door, and there was still no one shouting at the door, so they knocked three times and waited for the people in the house to answer the door.

Tang Xiaotang was the first to stabilize his expression, glanced at Xiao Cui, and motioned for her to open the door.
