Chapter 105: Pegasus Ranch
After the rain, the weather is sunny and refreshing, and the winter sun shines lazily.
Feng Xiaoxiao lazily sat on the broken chariot of the war horse, Kou Zhong was the coachman, and Xu Ziling was his entourage.
In front and behind is a team of more than 20 horses, and the knights on the horses are all spirited, and the horses they ride are strong.
Coincidentally, Feng Xiaoxiao was worried that he couldn't find Pegasus Ranch, but as soon as he left the village, he met the second deacon of Pegasus Ranch and returned with a team.
Feng Xiaoxiao was still thinking of what excuse to sneak in, and Kou Zhong, who had ulterior motives, wrapped up with a hippie smile, and coaxed the two deacons to be stunned for a while, and accepted the three of them as skilled cooks.
And Feng Xiaoxiao accidentally became a master chef who is very good at making pastries, and he is also famous in Yangzhou, and the dim sum made is famous, how many people line up in the early morning, just for a delicious taste.
The fame is so great that even Yang Guang recruited into Jiangdu, specially for the imperial chef, the dim sum made by Yang Guang and his concubines drooling, full of praise, dragon face and joy, flowers and branches trembling, can not taste a few bites a day, and rewarded a peerless sword Yunyun.
"Feifeng" is indeed a rare and good sword, if it is not for the royal family and wealthy families, there is absolutely no private one.
What Kou Zhong said is simply a nose and eyes, characters, places, and plots, and the plot is twists and turns are complex, pathetic and lamentable, and appropriately left a lot of blank space, which is reminiscent, and then feels pity and pity.
Even Feng Xiaoxiao almost believed it, almost really thinking that because of Yang Guang's sudden death, he, an innocent imperial chef, was implicated, and after several twists and turns, there were nobles who cherished his skills to help. Fang Cai fled in a hurry and hid in Tibet along the way. Hardships and bullying...... He did have a leg injury. But it was never bitten by a dog......
Fortunately, Feng Xiaoxiao was injured on his thigh, covered by a long placket, only revealing spots of blood, but not revealing the wound, otherwise a fool could see that this was a sword wound, how could it be gnawed by a dog......
The second deacon, Liu Zongdao, was careless at first, but when he heard that the three of them were Yang Guang's dim sum imperial chef, his expression moved slightly for some reason, and after listening to Kou Zhong's words. Finally nodded and took them, and promised to let the owner try their craft.
However, this man was very cautious, not only put the three in the middle of the team, but also four knights in all directions, always keeping an eye on them, and being on guard everywhere.
Feng Xiaoxiao just wanted to go to Pegasus Ranch to find Lu Miaozi, as for making snacks or something...... To be honest, even if he really dares to do it, he only looks like he does it. I guess no one dares to eat it......
He didn't want anything from Pegasus Ranch, so he didn't care if he was invited in or punched in, as long as he knew the location. So I wonder how Kou Zhong dared to talk so much, as if if I didn't make it delicious, he would hang himself on the dung pit.
You must know that Kou Zhong has the intention of fighting for the world. I don't think I want to offend the owner of Pegasus Ranch.
Feng Xiaoxiao changed his mind again, and said with a secret smile: "Just with his mouth that can tell the dead to live." Maybe he can really fool the master into the clouds. ”
In fact, Kou Zhongzhi didn't tell a lie, he was a gangster from Yangzhou. is naturally familiar with the situation there, and the sister-in-law who sells steamed buns to him and Xu Ziling is very good, the business of the steamed bun shop is so hot, so he opened his mouth and came, and it sounded very real.
Moreover, he and Xu Ziling have really learned a few months of rice dumplings, scallion pancakes, etc., with the intelligence of the two, not only did they get the true inheritance of the old master, but also came out of the blue, so they were not afraid of showing timidity when the time came.
If three points are false and seven points are true, it is easiest to make people believe, and Liu Zongdao really did not doubt it.
So Xiao Feng, Fu Ning and Fu Jing successfully went to Pegasus Ranch.
Xiao Feng is naturally Feng Xiao Xiao, as soon as he heard the names Fu Ning and Fu Jing, Feng Xiaoxiao's face became strange for a while, and he said in his heart: "These two boys can't be crushes on Shan Wanjing and Li Xiuning, right......?"
Pegasus Ranch is in the southwest of Jingling County, two tributaries of the Yangtze River, Zhangshui and Fushui, delineate a large triangular fertile plain, the two rivers flow through, irrigate the fertile fields on both sides, and finally merge into the river.
The climate here is mild, the soil is fertile, the products are abundant, the field where the Pegasus Ranch is located, the pasture grass is more particularly abundant, surrounded by mountains, enclosing more than ten miles of fertile fields, only the east and west two gorges can be entered and exited, the situation is dangerous, forming the natural screen of the pasture.
In the northwest corner, there is a magnificent castle built on the higher ground, with a steep cliff in the background, and a small river winding like a belt in front, which makes people breathtaking.
Nearby dangers and key places are densely packed with sentry towers and bunkers, overlapping the castle to protect it, even Feng Xiaoxiao is frightened, here is full of dangers, and echo each other, not to mention the army to attack, even if the master wants to sneak in at night, it is difficult to avoid this grassland with almost no blind spots.
There is a city tower at the exit of the gorge, the pit of three zhang wide and five zhang deep is dug out in front of the building, the mouth of the gorge is crossed, the following is covered with spikes, it is necessary to pass by the suspension bridge, there is indeed a husband when the pass, ten thousand people are difficult to cross the trend.
After passing through the city tower, Feng Xiaoxiao could only admit that this place was definitely a barrier that could not be broken from the outside, because this was a farm and pasture with no end in sight, and it seemed to form many large and small towns, which were connected and completely self-sufficient, even if the outside of the castle was surrounded for a hundred years, the people inside would not starve to death.
From the proud words of the people in the Pegasus Ranch, Feng Xiaoxiao knew that the original Pegasus Ranch had been built to the Sui Dynasty to unify the world for 160 years, and the owners of the farms had worked hard to manage the surnames, and the others were Liang, Liu, Tao, Wu, Xu, Luo and other ethnic groups, after more than 100 years of reproduction, they kept moving out of the surrounding areas to form nearby towns.
As for the two big cities of Yuan'an and Dangyang, more than half of their inhabitants come from Pegasus Ranch, which can almost be called a country.
Pegasus Ranch is also the economic lifeline of this region, producing high-quality horses, famous all over the world, but because the owners of the past generations pursued the ancestral teachings, never participated in the affairs between the rivers and lakes and the imperial court, the style of low-key, has always been business, so it is neither taboo, its reputation is not spread among the people.
Feng Xiaoxiao was very strange why there was such a large independent force under the rule of the Sui Dynasty, and it was replaced by other dynasties...... Can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch?
Feng Xiaoxiao is not very familiar with history, so he does not know, since the Wuhu Rebellion, the north fell, the Central Plains scholars do not exist one, in order to avoid the war, the people have moved south, to the southern scholars, and the Han people who stayed in the north established a dock fort to protect themselves, and slowly formed a gate valve.
So since then, the power of the Shi clan valve gradually expanded, and when it was at its peak, the people of the world were actually their private people, that is, Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jianxiong was strategic, breaking the Xiongnu in the north, destroying the Chen State in the south, sweeping the world, sweeping all over the country, and successfully unifying the Central Plains that had been seriously divided for hundreds of years.
Over the years, the family of gate valves has almost been swept away, but there are still powerful and difficult to attack such as the Song valve, but they are only attached in name, but in fact they still have the right to govern, which is equivalent to becoming a country of their own, and there are still gate valves such as Yuwen, Dugu, and Li surnamed standing in the court.
Yang Jianzhuangzhi died before he was paid, and after all, he failed to completely sweep away the valve family. (To be continued.) )
PS: Thank you for the reward of "There is an Egg" from the book friend, and thank you for the monthly ticket of the two eggs I voted for myself.
I'm not too familiar with history, and about the two Jin and Northern Dynasties, this dynasty has always mentioned much, so I don't dare to write deeply, and everyone don't look deeper.
By the way, if Mulan really has a person, then she is about a figure of this era...... I don't know if it's written in today's textbooks......
