Chapter 90: Violent Bones
Ancient Guzhu Country, the former city of the Yin princes, is in the south of Lulong County.
The manor built by Gongsun Chan for his young daughter is in this ancient country of lonely bamboo, on the bank of the water.
"Lady, we're here!"
When Alain's message came, Gongsun Yan was teaching Gongsun to admit numbers behind the curtain of the car, and his spirit was not very good.
It's not that Gongsun Cheng is stupid and stupid and can't teach for a long time, she is angry about it.
Instead, she left the Lingzhi Realm and gradually entered Lu Long, who had always had a strong curiosity about this time and space, leaned against the window, and saw several dilapidated and abandoned dock forts beside the ancient road, as well as the corpses lying on the side of the road.
A few appeared every other way, a small number, but never stopped.
It zigzagged and threw it on the side of the road, and the caravan that passed by didn't want the convoy to run over it, so it converged to the side.
Some of these bones were already white, some were not completely decomposed, and the rotten flesh hung on the black and red skeletons, and the small black beetles were going in and out.
The corpses had no clothes on them, and they were stripped of by whom.
On the way from Yijing to Lingzhi, perhaps because of the heavy snow, she didn't see this.
At this time, the weather warms up a little, and the snow covers something, exposed.
When she first saw her, she felt uncomfortable, and then she gradually became numb.
Previously, the soldiers were dragged and burned with hoods and gloves, not only to give the deceased a rest, but also to prevent the half-decomposed corpses from spreading the epidemic after the heat.
But later it was discovered that the one near was burned, and there was another one in the withered yellow grass in the distance.
Burn endlessly.
Gongsun Yan simply let it go first, and only waited for it to be dealt with later, she believed that there must have been a lot of rotten bones in those breached dock forts, and often a single mistake would cause a major epidemic.
Although he put this matter aside for the time being, the depression in his heart was difficult to dissipate for a while.
This emotion peaks especially when you see the small baby bones scattered next to a dry skeleton.
She silently lowered the curtains on both sides and stopped looking.
Seeing her look like she lowered the curtain, Zhao Yun, who was riding a horse, thought about it, said something to Gongsun Cheng, who was sitting in front of him, and carried Gongsun Cheng back into the car.
can no longer ride a horse, Gongsun Cheng has no complaints, obediently obeys Zhao Yun's words, returns to the car, kicks his shoes, and climbs onto Gongsun Yan's lap.
Gongsun Yan hugged him, gently rubbed his soft face, and recuperated in Lingzhi for a few days, his condition improved a lot, and his face was covered with flesh again.
Such silent comfort and care from others warmed her heart, hugged Gongsun Cheng on her knees, and enlightened him in mathematics.
took out the enlightenment little picture book that the system bought, taught him to recognize numbers and told him stories, and just passed the time.
On the way, I rested overnight in the post pavilion that had been completely deserted, and arrived at the Lone Bamboo Manor at noon the next day.
"Lady, we're here."
Alain's voice came from outside the car.
"Here we are."
After a while, Gongsun Yan took Gongsun Cheng and walked out of the car.
The car was parked on a hillside, and a high rammed earth wall was built on the top of the slope, and there was a watchtower arrow tower at intervals of several tens of meters.
As far as the eye can see, this rammed earth wall stretches into the dense forest in the distance, and there is no end in sight.
There is also a moat around the wall.
Gongsun Yan looked at the tall and big gate in front of him and was in a trance, this gate seemed to be a little bigger than Xiangguan.
At this time, the closed gate of the village opened open, and the people who came to greet him stood in front of the drawbridge that had been lowered.
Standing at the front was Tian Kai, followed by Xiahou Lan, Zhang Ze and Zhou Xing, the manager of the manor.
There was also a large procession of men dressed in scribe garments, stewards, or thin armor.
Even on the rammed earth city wall, there were several groups of solemn armor soldiers.
This was apparently to welcome them to the arrangement ceremony they had made.
Being watched by so many people at once, Gongsun Yan was a little timid for a moment, but she had always had good expression management skills, and she didn't show it on her face.
Gongsun Cheng on the side hid behind her with a swish, holding her legs and refusing to let go.
There was still someone waiting in front of her, and she couldn't just stand on the frame.
On the side, Ah Qing and Ah Lan set up the pedals to get out of the car.
Gongsun Yan wanted to coax Gongsun Cheng to let go and let Ah Qing hug him, in the past, the two could play together, but at this time, Gongsun Cheng refused to ask Ah Qing to hug him
Gongsun Yan had to hug him, tilting his head to pay attention to his feet, don't step on his skirt, and fall on his stomach in front of everyone on the first day.
Fortunately, Zhao Yun came over, took Gongsun Cheng smoothly with one hand, grabbed Gongsun Yan's arm with the other, and helped her down steadily.
Gongsun Yan comforted the ground, and as soon as his heart was relieved, he heard the people who came to greet him from afar say: "Welcome the little lady, the little boy goes home!" ”
The crowd shouted in unison, and the loud voices echoed through the valley.
Go home.
It should have been a very touching word, but at this time, Gongsun Yan only felt a little embarrassed, and silently stood next to Zhao Yun.
I don't know who made it.
Gongsun Cheng hugged Zhao Yun's neck tightly in the middle of this mountain call, and did not raise his head.
It seems that it is not good not to give some response, Gongsun reluctantly pulled a smile on his face, and waved his hand lightly as a greeting.
"Hahaha." Tian Kai smiled all the way and walked over, "Welcome home, little lady and little boy!" ”
Well, the masterminds have found it.
Gongsun Yan smiled helplessly, she wanted to say that next time don't waste this energy to make such a useless ceremony, it will be embarrassing, but when the words came to her mouth, they became: "Thank you Uncle Tian for bothering." ”
"Quick, enter the village, and take a good look at what your father prepared for you when he died."
During the Lingzhi period, Gongsun Yan and Gongsun Cheng made a temporary division of property under the witness of Gongsun's family.
Lingzhi Manor belongs to Gongsun Cheng, and Guzhu Manor is the dowry prepared by Gongsun Zhan for Gongsun Yan, so it is under her name.
Now that Gongsun Cheng is young, he handed over the manor to his sister to take care of it, and he will only dispose of it when he is an adult.
Gongsun Yan sat back in the car again, but Gongsun Cheng refused to come back from Zhao Yun's arms, so Zhao Yun took him on a horse, and Tian Kai and others rode to follow him.
The wheels rolled again, and Gongsun Yan rolled up the curtains again, and began to look at the manor that would be of great significance to him.
After crossing the suspension bridge, it is almost comparable to the Xiangguan City Gate, Gongsun Yan also saw some sword chopping marks on it, and some black and red traces.
After crossing the wall, the car walked on the loess driveway, and Gongsun Yan looked into the distance, and could see that the mountain col in the distance was dotted with connected houses and thatched houses.
A stream runs through the middle.
Like a chessboard, grid by grid, it is planned very neatly, which makes people feel comfortable when they see it.
"Steward Zhou, why don't you introduce the little lady?" Zhou Xing, the steward he had seen before, was riding on a horse and was pushed by Tian Kai to Gongsun Yan's car window.
"The manor here was planned by Steward Zhou from scratch." Tian Kai praised Zhou Xing in his words, and seemed to intend to give him a chance to perform.
In fact, there is no need for Tian Kai's introduction, Gongsun Yan is also deeply impressed by this Zhou steward.
At the moment, he still has that thin hair, and his eyes are blue and black, but he has changed into a robe that has been washed cleanly.
Zhou Xing's mother is a Xianbei slave, and his father is a Jia person, with such a background, he also suffered a lot when he was young.
With his natural sensitivity to numbers, he learned arithmetic, and later responded to the recruitment when he was most destitute and followed Gongsun Zhan as a junior officer in the army.
But after the battle of Guanzicheng, Gongsun Zhan's temperament changed greatly, and he was left in Liaoxi to take care of the family business for Gongsun Zhan.
On that day, Gongsun Yan's performance in the main hall of Gongsun Yan was seen with his own eyes, and he knew that this little lady who was about to take over Guzhu Manor was by no means an ordinary boudoir woman.
also knew that the lieutenant surnamed Zhao in the army would be the commander of Lulong County, and he was unwilling to be depressed all his life because of his blood.
At this time, I want to behave well, earn a future, and let my children and grandchildren get rid of this lowly identity.
Tian Kai also knew that he was detailed, the two had cooperated in the army, and they wanted to help him, so they pushed him to the front.
It's just that Zhou Xing, although he is talented, is not a good talker, and at such a moment, he is nervous.
Gongsun Yan did not urge, nor was he dissatisfied, but patiently listened to Zhou Xing's introduction to the planning and layout of the manor.
