Nan Ke got out of bed together, only to feel refreshed, as if his eyes were about to burst out, "Huh? What's going on? The body is as light as a swallow, and it seems that the distance is farther away, could it be that he wrote a poem yesterday and opened Huigen? Hahaha, it's not me! ”

Nan Ke changed into clothes, cleaned up the room and left the room, leaving only the "Miscellaneous Poems II: Respecting the Moon" written yesterday, after all, poems are such things, written out to be shown to others, if they are taken away and not known to others, then what is the point of showing off?

"Little Er, do you know how to get to the capital?" Nan Ke asked as he ate the breakfast prepared at the inn.

"Guest officer, you are asking, it is naturally okay to ride a horse along the official road, but I suggest you take the waterway!"

"Waterways?" Nan Ke was puzzled.

Xiao Er lowered his voice: "Guest officer, you don't know, the capital and Sinan City are separated by three states in a straight line, and one state is fifteen cities, and between these forty-five cities are countless lakes and rivers, rivers stretch, twenty-five years ago, that year can be described as a flood in the world, it rains for nine months a year, the water level of rivers and lakes skyrockets, the founding emperor of that year ordered that year, decided to abandon the three cities and the farmland therein, and open the waterway into a canal, the construction period is full of 20 years!" Five years ago, it was just opened to traffic, this canal went straight out of the capital, connected to Sinan City, and passed through the land of Sanzhou, which was absolutely flooded, but unfortunately the founding Emperor Taizu couldn't see it! ”

"Is it really from the capital to Sinan City?" Nan Ke asked.

You must know that although it is beneficial for commerce to completely connect the capital city with the frontier city, from a military point of view, the frontier enemy can also go directly to the capital from here! There is a saying in the army that the thief captures the king first, and the biggest king of the Southern Dynasty is naturally the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, if he is captured, then there is no need to fight the war.

"Guest officer, you don't know, the ministers of the court and the central government also objected to this, some said that it could not be connected to Sinan City, and some said that the canal could not be opened, and in the end it was the little eunuch at that time, and now Qin Hongyi, the eunuch Qin Qingping interjected casually, and it was precisely because of this mouth that he began his road to the present, guest officer, I said that you don't have to worry about this, Qin Qingping said that the only place connected with the Southern Dynasty is the northern region, and there is no mountain in the middle, and the countries in the Western Regions are separated by no mountains, and there is no dry waterway found underground, Unless the countries of the Western Regions conquer the Northern Regions, it is difficult to connect, and there are no big rivers and no sea in the Northern Regions. ”

Nan Ke nodded, this is a misunderstanding, the founding emperor of the Southern Dynasty Li Zaidao reigned for thirty-two years, and the second emperor is like today's son's father, who reigned for just twelve years and then returned to heaven, counting the current emperor, the Southern Dynasty has only existed for forty-eight years, the military strategy of the court and even the emperor and Nan Ke are learned from some ancient military books, and the era of those books is still a war in the Southern Dynasties, and the forces of all parties are divided, so there are complex military theories such as canals and capitals, Now that the Southern Dynasties are unified, there is not much reference significance, but this Qin Qingping can be a bystander.

"This Grand Canal was repaired because of the flood that year, in order to control the flood, named Hongbo Grand Canal, this is a big project, it is really unreasonable not to look at it!"

Nan Cao's heart moved, it was true that it had taken twenty-four years to survive the Grand Canal of the two emperors, and it was a pity not to take a look at it in person.

"Guest officer, if you are ready to travel, just tell me, our inn has merchant ships going south every day, just take our ship."

Nan Ke raised his eyebrows: "Do you still have a big deal in your inn?" Saying that, he walked out of the inn and glanced at the signboard, the four big characters were not brilliant, and the words were not written by everyone: the guest came like a cloud, and a small left word was carved in the lower right corner of the plaque.

The little two smiled: "Guest officer, don't look at our small temple, but all kinds of transactions, the shopkeeper is willing to intervene." ”

"By the way, I haven't seen your shopkeeper since I came last night, where has he gone?"

The little er's expression was full of arrogance: "If you go to the rivers and lakes, you always have to hear the name of our shopkeeper, the rivers and lakes are called the shopkeeper Zuo Liansheng, the only good thing in life is to walk the world, but this world always needs silver, so there is our guest Ruyunlai Inn and the Rolling Chamber of Commerce." ”

Nan Ke was helpless for a while, he knew that there were many strange people and strange people on the rivers and lakes, but he didn't expect such eccentric people to start trading in order to walk the rivers and lakes, and besides, the name ...... The customers are like clouds and the money is rolling, which is inevitably too straightforward.

"By the way, Qin Qingping you just said, if he had been a eunuch in the palace since the founding emperor, how old would he be now?" Nan Ke remembered Qin Qingping who Xiao Er mentioned just now and asked.

"Qin Hongyi is very good, although he is a crippled body, but his kung fu is superb, and the world's masters can at least enter the top ten! In addition to this martial arts, what is even more terrible is his mental skills, how can he be calm to serve by the side of the emperor of the Three Dynasties for so many years? As for age, some people enter the palace at the age of six, and some people enter the palace at the age of sixteen, they can't say for sure, anyway, it's definitely not small! ”

Nan Cao is clear, the so-called companion is like a companion tiger, this Qin Hongyi has accompanied three tigers before and after, it is not easy to survive until now, not to mention that he can be appreciated by the emperor, and he has a lot of kung fu.

"By the way, guest officer, you can leave me a name, and when you are ready to leave, I will inform the merchant ship."

Nan Ke's heart moved, he already knew that there would be a day when a fake name would be used, after all, the people in the Northern Regions were in the Southern Dynasty, and if they walked the world with their real names, they would never be able to say it: "In Xia Fan Bei, I want to leave today, is it okay?" ”

Fan Bei slack, Fan North slack, south to north, harsh to slack, to turn the south slack, is the north slack, so it is Fan North slack.

"It's okay to leave today, it just so happens that we have a boat about to leave, if you want to leave, pack up now, I'll go to the dock and make a noise."

Nan Ke nodded, took out two taels of silver in his arms and threw it to Xiao Er, asking so many things about others, not to mention that he still knew his identity, of course he had to take the money to open the way!

Xiao Er thanked him and ran to the dock.

Nan Ke didn't have anything to clean up, so he ordered a pot of wine and waited for the little two to come back while drinking.

…………

"Uncle, who wrote this poem?"

"The girl really has a vision, this ink treasure, it was written by a young man at yesterday's temple fair, although the writing is not very regular, but the poem is a little literary."

"One of the miscellaneous poems? Don't leave a name, interesting, ah, give money! ”

This poem was made by Nan Cao, but at this time he didn't know that he had been bought.
