Two months later, Wei Nong and Qi Zhan arrived at the capital of Ning, the capital of Li.

Because of Qi Zhan's companionship along the way, Weimin has gained a lot of convenience, and he doesn't have to worry about everything. Where is the best scenery in 100,000 mountains? What is the easiest way to get to Ningguo? What are the customs of the country of Kang? What is the food in Ningguo? Qi Zhan knows everything well.

Wei Nong thought that the killer's day must be a knife licking blood and thrilling, but he didn't expect Qi Zhan to still have this kind of interest, and he turned out to be a master of playing. However, listening to Yingluo, he has broken away from Momen, and it seems that from now on, he will wash his hands of gold and be good. Wei Nong sincerely rejoiced for him.

However, despite their happiness along the way, they still encountered two pursuits. Qi Zhan was touched by her light, and was protected by Jian Feng and others "by the way", and easily solved the trouble.

Jian Feng also abided by the agreement with Wei Nong, and as soon as he arrived at the boundary of Youzhou in Ningguo, he withdrew the rest of his horses to Yan Kingdom, leaving only him to continue to escort him. However, since Wei Nong walked with Qi Zhan, Jian Feng was no longer elusive, and simply sandwiched between the two of them openly, guarding against Qi Zhan like a thief, which made people laugh and cry.

But on the whole, in the past two months, Weinong thinks that he has had a good life. Especially after entering the border of Ningguo, along the way, she has seen another style, a more enlightened and powerful style that is different from that of Yanguo.

In the past, when Yan and Chu stood side by side, Wei Nong always heard people say that "the strength of Yan State is second only to Ning State"; But since the death of Chu, the people of Yan suddenly increased their confidence, and they began to boast that they were "on a par with the strength of Ning".

When he first entered the boundary of Youzhou, Wei Nongshang could deceive himself and say to Qi Zhan, "Ningguo is nothing more than that";

But as he went all the way north, getting closer and closer to the capital of King Ning, Wei Nong began to feel empty;

Now that she has really walked to the royal capital of Lidu City, she is finally willing to admit that she is sitting in a well and watching the sky.

Yuan Qingzheng, the head of the Ning State, ascended the throne at the age of seven and has reigned for 60 years. During his tenure, there was never a major war, and he not only carried forward the martial arts of Ningguo day by day, but also governed the "barbarian land" in the eyes of the previous world into a state of etiquette. After 60 years of steady development, the entire Ningguo is now strong and strong.

In the past, she had also been to Ningguo many times when she was walking darts, but at that time she was young and her knowledge was shallow, and she only cared about eating, drinking and having fun along the way, and never paid attention to a country's political achievements and people's livelihood.

Now that the world has changed, her identity has changed, and some things will unconsciously jump into her eyes and ears without her deliberately exploring. For example, the joy of the people, such as the new policy that King Ning is implementing-persuading farmers and raising literature.

Persuade farmers: divide the farmland into two types: Yongye field and mouth field, the former is owned by the people, and the latter is the official land, which is leased to the people. King Ning promulgated the "Xintian Law", which clearly and severely punished the acts of dividing land, selling land, occupying land, and stealing land; For the people who own the land, the tax will be reduced or exempted by three taels of silver a year to improve the people's trust in the official land; In addition, the construction of canals and embankments was written into the duties of state officials, and those who did not repair embankments were severely punished according to the law.

For example, in the establishment of a school in the private sector, it is ordered that each state should have at least one official school, and the state officials can be appropriately selected from the official school; Pen dealers, ink dealers, paper dealers, booksellers, but all businesses that are related to learning shall be appropriately reduced; Those who privately print or circulate banned books shall be punished as the crime of rebellion; Jiang Guoren was allowed to participate in the imperial examination of Ningguo and become officials in the court.

In addition, the new policy also imposed restrictions on the business of big merchants and small traders, stipulating that salt, iron, tea, wine, vinegar and other industries related to the national economy and people's livelihood could only be run by the government, and private trading was prohibited to prevent people from hoarding and selling in large quantities.

Wei Nong used his shallow experience to evaluate, and also felt that King Ning's move won the hearts of the people and could benefit Ning Guo immensely. It seems that after Ning Jiang formed an alliance, the threat to Yan was indeed great. Wei Nong couldn't help but start to worry.

"What are you thinking?" Qi Zhan saw that she had been silent for a long time, so he asked with a smile.

"Nothing." Wei Nong came back to his senses and looked around the street: "It's the first month now, and it's the implementation of the new policy, why can't Li see a little bit of joy?" ”

"Because Prince Ning is seriously ill and difficult to treat, he won't survive for a few days." Qi Zhan suddenly became expressionless, and his tone was a little sarcastic?

When Shen Jue went to Yan Kingdom last year, Wei Nong already knew the news that Prince Ning was seriously ill. It's just that I didn't expect that a whole year has passed, and he is still holding on, presumably suffering from illness and suffering.

No matter what kind of heaven and nobility you are, you can't escape birth, old age, sickness and death. Therefore, peace and joy are the most important things in a person's life. But in troubled times, how many people can fulfill their wishes?

Wei Nong was about to sigh, but saw that Qi Zhan had stopped and pointed to the restaurant on the street: "Let's go!" Let's go in first and fill my stomach. ”

"Let's find an inn first, shall we?" Slightly thickened proposed. The experience of Fallen Leaf City is really fresh in her memory, and since then, she has always found a good place to stay whenever she goes. If you can't find it for a while, you will be very anxious.

Along the way, Qi Zhan and Jian Feng had long been accustomed to her problem, and the former couldn't help but sneer at her: "Don't worry, I don't dare to guarantee that other places will never shorten your food and accommodation when you arrive in Lidu." ”

Wei Nong knew that Qi Zhan was here to do business, and when he saw that he was full of confidence, he thought that he had arranged it in advance, so he didn't ask any more questions, and entered the restaurant with him.

The little second brother saw that the three of them were extraordinary, and immediately smiled and led to the elegant seat on the second floor. Wei Nong didn't want to be blackmailed by a high price, so he hesitated and refused to go up.

Qi Zhan leaned against the stairs with his arms crossed, and smiled lazily at her: "Come up!" Now that I have arrived in Lidu, I have to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. Leave all the food and lodging to me! ”

"Why didn't you say this in Youzhou?" Wei Nong remembered that Qi Zhan was from Youzhou, and the helm of Momen was also there.

Qi Zhan didn't explain, just smiled: "Then are you willing to appreciate your face?" ”

"Of course!" Wei Nong naturally wouldn't be polite to him, and immediately walked to the second floor, followed by Jian Feng and Qi Zhan. Wei Nong went up the stairs, and didn't forget to turn around and smile: "Brother Jian, let go of the food later, don't save him ......"

Before he finished speaking, Wei Nong suddenly collided with someone. Fortunately, she was fast enough to quickly hold on to the handrail of the stairs. Unfortunately, the person who hit her could not stand still, staggered down the stairs, and groaned delicately.

"Girl, are you alright?" Wei Nong hurriedly reached out to help.

It was a young girl who fell, seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a fiery red dress, and she looked bright and delicate. When she saw that Wei Nong stretched out her hand to help herself, her face was stunned for a moment, and then she looked frightened, and waved her hand to refuse: "No...... You don't need to help! ”

Wei Nong looked down at his clothes, which were not dirty or old, they were ordinary skirts. Look at the girl in red who fell, she was wearing a rouge gold and cigarette brocade skirt, which was worth no less than 100 gold. As soon as the two sides were compared, Wei Nong immediately made up his mind, and he no longer forced her to help her, but apologized in his mouth: "I'm really sorry, Tang Tu girl." ”

"It's fine." The girl in red who was hit was a little pale, but her mood was stable and she stood up on her own.

At this moment, a woman dressed as a maid hurriedly came over, and when she saw this scene, she hurriedly asked, "Miss!" How did you fall? You okay? ”

"I'm fine." The girl in red glanced at Wei Nong reluctantly.

The maid immediately understood, stretched out her finger and pointed at Wei Nong and scolded, "Hey! You don't have long eyes when you walk? How dare you rush into my young lady, don't you want to die? ”

"I'm really sorry, I didn't see it." Wei Nong apologized kindly.

The girl in red herself didn't say anything more, but the maid didn't give up: "Do you think an apology will work?" If my young lady is really injured, you won't be able to eat and walk around! ”

Wei Nong still smiled, and turned to ask the girl in red: "Girl, are you not hurt?" ”

The girl in red didn't speak, only patted the dust on her skirt, and her expression suddenly became very cold. Looking like that, he actually disdained to talk to Wei Nong again.

Jian Feng looked a little annoyed, so he sneered on the side: "Such a big shelf? ”

"Brother Jane," Wei Nong hurriedly stopped him, "Don't say it, after all, it's us who are the first to lose." ”

"It's like a human saying." The maid supported the girl in red and snorted coldly: "Our young lady is beautiful and kind-hearted, and I don't care about you." Why don't you get out of the way? Good dogs don't get in the way! ”

"What did you say?" Jian Feng asked angrily again.

At this time, there were already many guests gathered around to see the excitement, Wei Nong had just arrived, and he didn't want to offend people, so he quietly pinched Jian Feng's arm and signaled him to calm down. The two of them stood next to the stairs and moved out of the way.

Only Qi Zhan was still standing in the middle of the stairs, looking at the master and servant in front of him with an inquiring face, without any intention of giving way. It wasn't until Weimin tugged at his sleeve that he moved very slowly to the side and smiled disdainfully.

The maid didn't understand what Qi Zhan meant, she was still proud, and shook off the cloak hanging on her arm, draped it on the girl in red, and said flatteringly: "Miss, let's go?" Master Mo was in a hurry. ”

"Hmm." The girl in red didn't say a word, and walked down the stairs without squinting with the support of the maid, and walked out of the restaurant.

Wei Nong watched them step out of the threshold until he chuckled and asked, "Which lady is this?" It's a big show! ”

"Dogs look down on people!" Jian Feng was already an irrepressible anger.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant stood by the stairs all the time, and only then did he dare to make a sound, and replied in shock: "The three of them don't know, just now they are the sisters of the Lihou, we don't dare to offend." ”

"Who is Lihou?" Wei Nong asked casually.

"The girl is not from Ningguo, right?" The shopkeeper smiled back: "Now in our Ningguo, everyone knows about Lihou." ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. There was a slight curiosity.

However, the shopkeeper refused to say any more, and looked like he wanted to say something and stopped, obviously because he was afraid of the lively guests around him.
