Chapter 179: At Sea
The convoy set off from Xianyang and went south out of Wuguan, and all kinds of matters along the way had already been arranged, Zhao Qingrui and Yin Yan were basically only responsible for eating, drinking, and playing, so happy.
Even Yingzheng was dragged by them to play a lot of things and gained a lot of knowledge.
The convoy moved slowly for a month, and finally arrived at the Yangtze River Yumengze, although it is winter, the lake is not frozen.
Zhao Qingrui let people catch a lot of fish and stew a big pot of fish soup.
Ying Zheng looked in the direction of Jiuzhi Mountain in the south, and asked people to prepare sacrificial things.
"Father wants to sacrifice Emperor Shun?" Sure enough, as recorded in the history books, Dad is going to Jiuzhi Mountain.
"Well, in Xiangshan before, the widow lost his temper, I'm afraid it annoyed Emperor Shun, and now the old man curses the widow to die this year, so let's go and worship." Ying Zheng said softly.
He is not afraid that these things will take revenge on him, he is afraid that these things will hurt Zhao Qingrui.
"I haven't been to Jiuzhi Mountain yet, so I'm going to take a look." Zhao Qingrui saw the complexity in her father's eyes, this was her father, of course she wouldn't let him die easily.
Seeing the look of the girl's expectation, Ying Zheng chuckled, as soon as this girl came out, as if she had endless energy, she pulled Yin Yan here every day to see, Look there, like a bird out of the cage.
It gave him the feeling that keeping her in the palace was a kind of restraint for her.
But his place, what he wanted to leave to her, these were all things she had to do, and she was different.
The scenery of Daqin is very good, there are no traces of artificial carving in later generations, and it is the most primitive natural scenery.
After coming out, Zhao Qingrui's mood has always been very good.
Although there are a lot of affairs sent over every day, she can still handle them as quickly as possible, and then take Yin Yan to play.
They didn't know how to play at all, Zhao Qingrui took Yin Yan to get a lot of delicious things, and also collected a lot of fun things.
It is said that the scenery of Jiuzhi Mountain is very good, and it is still where the tomb of Emperor Shun is located, and I don't know if it's true, she is really a little curious.
After paying homage to Emperor Shun, the convoy set off towards Jiuzhi Mountain.
Coming to Jiuzhi Mountain, Zhao Qingrui was shocked by the scenery here and was speechless.
Nine peaks are towering, the mountain peaks are towering, majestic and magnificent, the karst caves are dense, the green water always flows, and the natural scenery is very beautiful.
Shunyuan Peak is in the middle, Empress E, Nuying, Guilin, Qilin, Shicheng, Shilou, Zhu Ming, Xiaoshao eight peaks, rise from the ground, such as the stars and the moon, clustering Shunyuan Peak, closely nestled on both sides of the Ehuang Peak and Nuying Peak.
Under the Shunyuan Peak, there is the Shun Temple, the red wall and green tiles are reflected in the green trees, the pines and cypresses are towering into the clouds, and the fragrant fir and bamboo are dense and verdant.
After sacrificing Emperor Shun, then along the Yangtze River eastward, ascending Huiji Mountain, which is the place where Dayu died and was buried.
Worship Dayu, once again carved a stone to remember the merits, and spent the cold winter here.
Today's Huiji County has no people from the Xiang family, even if there is, they can't make any waves, Xiang Yu is dead, Xiang Liang and they are still repairing the Emperor's Mausoleum and Afang Palace, and Huiji County is calm.
Continuously sacrificed in the place where the two emperors died, Yingzheng felt that this was a bit ominous, and after the beginning of spring, he set off directly.
After the beginning of spring, the mighty fleet set off from Huiji, headed north, and headed towards Langya.
In the days at sea, Zhao Qingrui exchanged a lot of tools for catching fish from the mall.
There are fresh sea fish to eat every day, and at the beginning, Yin Yan and Ying Zheng still thought it was very novel, and the taste of these fish was delicious.
However, after eating it for a while, I felt a little tired.
"It's fish again." Seeing that the food sent was all fish, Yin Yan's face suddenly fell, she had really eaten too much fish during this time, and she was not a picky eater and now she had no appetite.
"Well, I caught a huge tuna today, I had someone make sashimi, but fortunately I found a lemon when I came out to play, and we ate sashimi today." Zhao Qingrui pulled Yin Yan up.
"Sashimi, raw?" Ying Zheng silently looked at the dishes served, today's dishes are all raw.
"That's right, I'll teach you how to eat it, this is the freshest." Zhao Qingrui nodded and enthusiastically began to teach them how to eat.
There are a lot of fish in the sea, and there are not many people who can run into the sea to catch fish, and there are many dangers in the sea.
Now that Daqin's army dares to come, these ships are specially built, and even borrow some of Zheng He's treasure ships, so that these big ships can sail safely in the wind and waves.
The taste of the sashimi was unexpectedly good, which made Yin Yan and Ying Zheng's eyes light up.
Seeing that the two of them could accept the taste of sashimi, Zhao Qingrui breathed a sigh of relief, and then feasted together.
I didn't eat these things often in my previous life, but now I can finally eat them with an open stomach.
"There are so many things in the sea, so people will come and get more fish to store them." After coming to the sea, he thoroughly saw the abundance of products in the sea, which made him even more excited.
"Make it into dried fish and let it sit for a long time." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"With these fish, there will be more food on the table of Qianshou in the future." Yin Yan ate happily, this fish melts in the mouth, and the caviar that Xiaomei let people make, it is so delicious.
"There are more merchants going to sea." After going to sea, he could occasionally see merchant ships, and Ying Zheng sighed in his heart.
"This is a good thing, the customs revenue has increased a lot, and now the treasury is a small surplus." Zhao Qingrui thinks that this is a good thing, and it should be promoted, so that those who have the ability can go to sea.
You know, more than half of the earth is ocean, and the ocean is a huge treasure trove.
After eating sashimi, several people were a little bit supportive.
During this period of sea sailing, there were all kinds of fish every day, even if Zhao Qingrui let people eat in a different way, she still felt a little tired.
Fortunately, there are many things in this sea that can withstand her tossing.
Today's tuna sashimi, tomorrow's fried squid, and some octopus balls, Zhao Qingrui directly ate everything she wanted to eat several times.
"Good daughter, it's almost time to Langya County, let's rest on the shore for a while, the widow is old, and I want to eat some fresh vegetables." Seeing that it was fish again, Ying Zheng had a bitter face.
Zhao Qingrui was full of black lines, but she was also a little tired.
"Okay, just go and see the situation in the salt mill." Zhao Qingrui has no opinion, where to go to play is not fun, the salt farm is now one of the most important places in Daqin, and she has not even been to see it.
"Yes, yes, go and see the salt mill, I don't know how Meng Yi runs the salt farm." Ying Zheng is also looking forward to it.
Today's Daqin is no longer short of salt, it is still refined salt, and the salt farm was built by them, but they haven't seen it yet.
