Chapter 1153: Fengyang City
Regarding the trip to the imperial capital of the Yan Kingdom, Zhou Liang asked him if he needed to prepare, but Xia Feng felt that it was not necessary.
Because, he doesn't want to give anyone time to prepare, including himself.
Or, for what must be done, he is ready both physically and mentally.
....
People like Zhou Liang couldn't perceive the inner meaning of this trip at all, but as core members of Black Feather, Red Knife and Big Brother Ace were very cautious.
Before leaving, Red Knife specially found him.
"Xia Feng, I'll go with you with Lapland."
Xia Feng did not agree.
"No need, it's messy, I'm just alone."
"Then at least let Xiao Ye accompany you....."
"No, you can just wait for me at home."
Red Knife couldn't figure out why Xia Feng insisted on going alone when he knew it might be dangerous.
"Summer Breeze, why?"
Xia Feng just gently stroked the scabbard of the Shenyue Knife.
"I'm not going to fight, I'm going to perform, I'm the only actor invited, and if there are extra people interfering, the perfect movement will become cluttered and won't be able to win the admiration of some people."
....
That night, Xia Feng left Yandong and went to Fengyang City, the imperial capital of the Yanguo mainland.
The only officials who went with him were Zhou Liang, and the two shadow guard girls who had been assigned by the Yan Nation's high-level to protect him, Xiao Kong and Xiao Ling.
Other than that, none of Kuroba's companions went with him.
Along the way, several people stopped and stopped, and the means of transportation were repeatedly changed, and under the leadership of Xia Feng, the trip to life turned into a wild trip for a "family of four".
A few days later.
With the Governor's token, he successfully entered the territory of the Yan Kingdom from North China.
However, he received news that Lin Hong, as the governor of North China, had already gone to the imperial capital in advance.
It seems that what Lao Wei said before is true, including him, the five governors of the Yan Kingdom will gather in Fengyang City.
Entering North China, he refused the kindness of the adjutant in North China to send someone to escort him, and Xia Feng set off again with a relaxed and happy mood.
....
Along the way, they have been in boats, cars, and carriages.
The breath of spring spreads all over the land, the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant, and the mountains and rivers of the Yan land can be described as infinitely beautiful.
Every time he passed through a village, Xia Feng would stop to watch, and every time he came to a town, he would experience the local customs.
In the small town of Yanguo, the sound of vendors can be heard from the street from time to time.
"Chestnuts, sell chestnuts!"
"Sharpen scissors ~ sharpen kitchen knives~"
"Candy Blower~~"
There were many things on the street that he had never seen in Victoria, and some of them were different from Yandong, but he didn't feel unfamiliar.
bought a bunch of sugar gourds for Xiaokong and Xiaoling, and a bag of chestnuts for Zhou Liang.
Leave the town and set off again.
Along the way, the four of them walked and stopped, eating and strolling, and it took several days to leave North China and enter the Yanchuan area.
The Governor opened the way, refusing all invitations from the local officials, and the four of them were in a car, a horse-drawn carriage, and even on foot.
By the time they finally arrived in Fengyang City, more than a week had passed.
.....
This afternoon.
The four of them walked on a wild road outside the city, with grass on both sides.
Xiao Kong looked at a huge city that appeared at the end of his sight, and shouted excitedly to Xia Feng.
"My lord, we have arrived at Fengyang City!"
Xia Feng smiled and nodded.
"Well, it is worthy of being the imperial capital of the Yan Kingdom, it looks very big."
Zhou Liang was tired of backache, and a civil official like him had been overdrawn in both physical strength and energy along the way.
Unlike the happy expressions of several people, Zhou Liang bared his teeth and pleaded.
"My lord, the end ..... It's finally here, so let's hurry into town. ”
"There's no hurry."
Xia Feng took half a string of sugar gourds and quietly observed this historic Fengyang City from a distance.
Intuitively, although the walls are tall, they are still a little less interesting than Lentinium, but at present, it seems that the area is much larger than Lentinium.
Of course, this is normal, because Fengyang City as a whole is not a complete mobile city.
According to Zhou Liang, Fengyang City is divided into five urban districts, and only the imperial city in the center is the main city that can move in natural disasters.
Perhaps it is the will of heaven, since the establishment of the imperial city with the ability to move, it has never been moved to avoid natural disasters, and Fengyang City has been located here for decades.
Naturally, the city began to expand around the main city until it became the sheer size it is today.
.....
For some reason, Xia Feng did not choose to enter the city directly through the east gate, but began to circle around the tall city wall like a thief preparing to steal.
Several inquiries were fruitless, and Zhou Liang and the two shadow guard girls could only accompany him around.
The summer breeze turned from afternoon to dusk, until it was getting dark, and he finally went around to the west gate of Fengyang City.
Standing outside the west gate, he approached the guards guarding the gate like a passing vendor.
"Brother, it's hard work, come, please eat sugar gourd."
The guards in armor and sabers glared at him.
"Get out."
Xia Feng still smiled and leaned forward.
"Don't be so rude, I want to ask you something."
Seeing that the guards obviously didn't bother with him, Xia Feng asked directly.
"Brother, I want to ask, where is the granary of Fengyang City?"
"Huh!"
As soon as Xia Feng's words fell, the guards had already pulled out half of the saber.
"I told you to get out, and if you talk nonsense, believe it or not, I will arrest you directly...... Catch ......"
Seeing Xia Feng's Governor Token displayed in front of him, the guard's expression froze, and the second half of the sentence was suffocated.
"Plop!"
In the next second, the guard fell directly to his knees.
"See the Governor!"
This shout alarmed the nearby guards guarding the city gate, and almost all the eyes cast saw the token in Xia Feng's hand.
As the city guards of Fengyang City, the imperial capital, they can clearly distinguish the authenticity of the tokens of the various official positions of the Yan Kingdom.
Then, these guards, who were usually arrogant and treated civilians like reprimanding domestic animals, knelt down on one knee to Xia Feng.
"See the Governor!"
....
Suddenly in focus, Xia Feng made a silent gesture.
"It's okay, it's okay, get up, what should you do, it's an order."
"Yes!"
Although it was an order, the guards who returned to their respective posts still looked nervous, and in order to make a good impression in front of the governor, each of them straightened their backs.
When Xia Feng looked at the guard at the beginning again, this person's expression was already more ugly than crying.
"Sorry, Governor, my subordinates didn't recognize you......."
Xia Feng waved his hand kindly.
"Harm, it's okay, I'm a good-tempered person, you work so hard to protect your family and defend the country, I won't bother with you."
"Thank you, Governor!"
Lowering his voice, Xia Feng continued to ask just now.
"Brother, it's still the question just now, I'm the new governor of Yandong, and I'm not very familiar with the inland, I want to know, where is the granary of our Fengyang City?"
"Granary?"
"Yes."
The guard glanced at the governor token in Xia Feng's hand again, and then replied directly without concealment.
"Back to my lord, there are three granaries in Fengyang City, which are in the west, north, and east, and in addition, there is also a large granary in Yanyang Town, which is three kilometers south of the city."
Xia Feng nodded and continued to ask.
"And then? Isn't there any? ”
The guard replied affirmatively.
"Back to my lord, there are only these granaries around Fengyang City, if you want to find them again, you will have to find a city hundreds of kilometers away."
Xia Feng patted the guard on the shoulder with satisfaction.
"Okay, thanks."
