Seeing that his family was happy to eat and drink, Song Shaoqin also stepped into the carriage happily, but when he got on the bus, he gave Guangbai a pack of spiced beef jerky.

Fortunately, Xia Ning prepared three portions of each snack, otherwise he would really not have enough points.

"Thank you, master."

Guangbai was stunned, and honestly took the snack, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his ear power is naturally extraordinary, and he naturally heard the words of the master.

He accompanies his master all the year round, and he knows best as a personal entourage who the master has befriended, so when did the master meet overseas people?

But doubts are doubts, but he doesn't talk much.

The wheels rolled around and slowly drove out of the gate of the General's Mansion.

Song Shaoqin, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but play with the small self-defense flashlight in his hand.

The reason why he thought of the name 'overseas' was also thanks to the book he saw last night, which happened to explain some Western countries that existed on the other side of the sea.

Only then did he realize how big the sky was, how wide the earth was, and how big the world was beyond his imagination.

Before that, he had a half-believing and half-condensed attitude towards this matter, because the Eastern Chu Kingdom had also had caravans to go to sea before, but there were very few fleets that could come back smoothly, so there was very little information about this.

But the world is full of curiosity and fear of the other side of the sea.

And now, he can take advantage of this to explain the origin of these snacks and drinks, which can be regarded as paving the way for the inexplicable extra strange things in the future.

Today, in addition to the big country of Eastern Chu, there are two states of Xiliang and Northern Desert, Xiliang has many barren tribes, and the Northern Desert is desolate and depends on raising cattle and sheep for a living, although it is inconvenient to travel between the three countries, they still maintain exchanges in commerce and trade.

Therefore, Song Shaoqin did not plan to borrow the names of these two countries, whether these things are the things of Fanbang, in fact, you can know by careful investigation, and they can't stand scrutiny at all.

In order to prevent future troubles, the safest way is to make it impossible for people to verify, and the name 'overseas things' is very useful.

"Master, it's here."

Hearing this, Song Shaoqin retracted his thoughts, straightened his robe, and then slowly got out of the carriage and walked into the office yamen of Taichang Temple.

Song Shaoqin was admitted to the top prize at the age of seventeen, and was assigned by the first emperor to enter the Hanlin Academy, and served as the Hanlin Academy from the sixth grade of the cultivation position, and after the big examination every three years, he was promoted to the Shaoqing of the Guanglu Temple of the fifth grade.

Two months ago, he experienced the second round of the 'three-year examination' for which he was an official, and it stands to reason that with his qualifications and talents, he has a great chance to compete for the Guanglu Siqing or Taifu Siqing who has been promoted from the third rank.

After all, in addition to his relatively young age, he is not inferior to anyone in terms of family background and talent.

However, at the beginning of last year, the first emperor died suddenly due to a sudden illness, and the new emperor directly squeezed out his younger brother and successfully ascended the throne.

In fact, speaking of which, there was no discord between him and the new emperor in the past, and the current situation was just blown by the pillow wind.

To put it mildly, the new emperor has soft roots and is not firm in will, which is not as good as the iron and bloody wrist of the first emperor, and does not have the decisive courage of the first emperor.

Nowadays, the whole capital knows that the new emperor is extremely fond of Xiao Guifei, and he is very important to the Earl of Yongchang, his maiden family.
