According to historical records, a long time ago, there were many different tribes distributed in this land, and then a Han tribe in the central part of the country, a tribal leader of Zhou Haotian, discovered the method of refining iron among the people. This leader was full of ambition, vigorously mined iron ore, made weapons and armor, trained the army, annexed other tribes step by step, unified the entire land, built the Great Zhou Dynasty, called King Hao, and other tribes all bowed to the Great Zhou Dynasty and paid tribute every year.

After the death of King Hao, his son Zhou Yun succeeded to the throne, and King Yun was mediocre and cruel, wantonly oppressing and even slaughtering other tribes.

Due to the unification of the entire continent, the iron refining method was leaked, and other tribes gradually mastered the manufacture of weapons and began to unite against the Great Zhou Dynasty, resulting in the division of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

King Hao's youngest son, Zhou Wen, in the name of "beheading the king", rebelled and usurped the throne with the ministers, killed his brother Zhou Yun, changed the name of the country to the Great Zhou Empire, called Emperor Wen of Zhou, and stabilized the situation to rule the central region.

The Western Ogi became independent and annexed other scattered tribes in the West to form the Ogi Kingdom. The northern Rong are larger ethnic tribes that have also become independent. The Great Zhou Empire and the Di Kingdom have always been equal in strength, and the Rong tribe is relatively weak, but they are basically herdsmen, brave and good at fighting, so it has caused a situation where the three forces are dominant.

After that, if one side was too strong, the other two sides would join forces to suppress it, and occasionally there would be wars on the border, but none of them affected the whole pattern, and it remained until 682, which is today.

The current emperor is called Emperor Xuan of Zhou, succeeded to the throne in the first year of Zhou 672, when he was only eleven years old, the Empress Dowager was in power, his relatives interfered in politics, Emperor Xuan of Zhou secretly cultivated his own forces, and in the first year of Zhou 678, he overthrew the autocratic power of the Empress Dowager, swept away the forces of foreign relatives inside and outside the Qing Dynasty, and sat on the throne.

Lu Ziqi told the history of the Great Zhou Empire (later referred to as the Zhou State) like a storyteller, and Chuncao couldn't help but sigh when he heard that the current emperor was so powerful, "This is no worse than Kangxi!" ”

"Who is Kangxi?" Lu Ziqi asked Chuncao curiously.

Chuncao didn't know how to answer this question, so she directly changed the topic, "You tell me about geography, which country do we belong to, and where are we?" ”

Lu Ziqi was full of black lines, and once again refreshed Lu Ziqi's understanding of his daughter-in-law's ignorance, and he didn't even know which country he was.

"Our location is northwest of the Zhou Kingdom. Qingyang City to the north is the Rong people, to the west is the desert, it is said that there is a small city called the Moon Country in the desert, but no one has ever seen it, because the desert basically did not come out alive, and it became a forbidden place of death, and no one went to the desert again. Even if there are a few people who are not afraid of death go in, they never come out after entering. Our village is in the southernmost part of Qingyang City, in the middle of Qingyang City and Fengcheng. The emperors of the Zhou State are all in Shangjing, in the middle of the territory of the Zhou State, we have to go all the way to the south, through Fengcheng, Longcheng, Jiangcheng, Jingcheng, Youzhou, Huizhou, before arriving in Shangjing. ”

"What's the difference between a state and a city?" This is obviously different from the modern division of districts and counties, Chuncao didn't understand, so he interjected and asked.

"Zhou is divided into 13 cities in Kyushu, 1 Beijing is Shangjing, and Kyushu has Youzhou, Huizhou, Qingzhou, Quzhou, Ningzhou, Wanzhou, Zinc, Yuzhou, Jinzhou; The thirteen cities include Qingyang City, Xianyang City, Luoyang City, Fenyang City, Dragon City, Fengcheng, Jiangcheng, Jingcheng, Shang'an City, Qu'an City, Xi'an City, Xu'an City, and a flower city. ”

A string of names, I heard that Chuncao was one head and two big, it was really difficult for his nerd, so I read it out to her in one breath.

"Have you ever been to Shangjing? What is it like to go to Beijing? Chuncao was very curious about what it was like to go to Beijing, and she made up her mind that when she made enough money, she must go to Beijing to see it.

There are also the Rong tribes, the Di country, she wants to go around.

"Haven't been." Lu Ziqi replied. "The climate in Beijing is relatively moderate, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the four seasons are like spring......" Lu Ziqi told Chuncao about the customs and customs of various places while walking.

It's been almost more than an hour since I walked back, because the ox cart was too heavy, it was very slow, and it was only half the way after walking for so long, and the speed of the ox cart was getting slower and slower, and Chuncao's legs had begun to weaken, and the whole person was almost hanging on Lu Ziqi's arm.

Fang Dalang drove the ox cart silently all the way, and when he came to a roadside with a small well, Da Lang stopped the ox cart and said to the two people behind, "Rest for a while before leaving." Chuncao had long wanted to rest, so she found a clean stone on the side of the road and sat down, wiping her sweat with her sleeve.

Lu Ziqi went to the ox cart and turned out a cowhide water bag, went to the well to pick up the water, took it and handed it to the spring grass, the spring grass was really thirsty, but whether the water was clean or not, he held a cow drink, and returned it to Lu Ziqi after drinking, and Lu Ziqi drank some of the water bag.

Chuncao blinked and watched Lu Ziqi drink water, and wanted to say, "I just drank it." But in the end, I was too embarrassed to speak.

After resting for a while, it was time to continue on the road, the sun had already set, and it was about to get dark, so we had to rush back as soon as possible.

After resting, I walked forward for a while, and then I began to turn into another road, which was not the same road as when I came, this road was a little narrower, just enough for ox carts to pass, and there were basically no people on either side of the road, and no pedestrians were seen.

Chuncao asked Lu Ziqi because this path is closer, of course, this road will not pass through the village, will not pass through Fang Dalang Village, will not pass through Xiaowang Village, will lead directly to the vicinity of Nanshan, and then go to the opposite side of the small river at home, and cross the river to reach home.

The ox cart was moving slower and slower, and it was getting darker.

Chuncao was already tired, let go of his hand, squatted directly on the ground, and pouted, "Nerd, how far is it?" ”

"It's almost half an hour away." Lu Ziqi stopped and wanted to pull the spring grass up.

"I can't walk." Spring grass squatted on the ground and did not move.

Lu Ziqi turned his back to Chuncao and squatted down, "Come up." ”

Chuncao saw that the nerd wanted to carry himself, and he was not polite, so he stood up directly and lay on Lu Ziqi's back.

Lu Ziqi dragged the spring grass upside down, and when his back was stable, he chased after the ox cart in front.

Chuncao lay on Lu Ziqi's back, smelling the faint scent of ink on Lu Ziqi's body, and his face was full of happy smiles.

It was already dark, there was no moon in the sky, and there were many stars, and the group moved forward by the starlight.

Chuncao has been on Lu Ziqi's back, Chuncao is very surprised that Lu Ziqi is so powerful, and has carried her all the way to the present, but her breathing is a little heavy, but her back is wet with sweat, and Chuncao will occasionally wipe the sweat on Lu Ziqi's forehead with her sleeve.

Finally on the other side of the river, I crossed the creek from the shallow water in front of me, and walked a little further to my home.

Fang Dalang took off his shoes and socks and drove the ox cart to cross the river in front, Lu Ziqi put down Chuncao and dragged his shoes and socks in his hand, Chuncao also wanted to drag his shoes and socks to cross the river by himself, Lu Ziqi looked at Chuncao's actions and said to Chuncao, "I'll carry you over so as not to get your feet wet." Then he put on the spring grass again and walked into the river.
