Chapter 144: Xiliang Snow Mountain
One of the five major generals under Xiao Yan in the future, Xu Maoqin.
He is a mixed-race child, half of the Hu blood, since he was a child, the blue eyes have been ostracized, and then forced to conscript, because he fought bravely, was named the tiger head pioneer, but after the war, Xu Maoqin was taken to lead the army, and because of his Hu blood, was arranged to join the army in this wild place in Xizhou.
Later, Xiao Yan raised troops and reused Xu Maoqin, and after Xiao Yan ascended the throne, he was named the general of Zhenguo, a first-class national prince, and he was a very popular minister.
But now, it should be the first time they have met.
"General Xiao, the last general of Xizhou Mansion joined the army Xu Maoqin, and came to welcome the general in the name of Governor Ji!" Xu Maoqin dismounted and respectfully saluted Xiao Yan: "The governor originally wanted to come to greet the general in person, but he was afraid that the matter would spread and cause criticism, so he only let the last general come, and hoped that the general would forgive his sins." ”
Ji Changyu, the governor of Xizhou Prefecture, was born in a family, and because of his arrogant temperament, he was not allowed to be allowed in Kyoto officialdom, so he was exiled here.
Xiao Yan only heard of Ji Changyu and never met.
"Xiao is just a grass man now, and he is no longer a general." Xiao Yan said.
Xu Maoqin said sincerely: "In the hearts of the last general and others, you will always be General Xiao!" General Xiao, Governor Ji knows that you have worked hard all the way, let the last general take you directly to the resettlement place, the environment of Xizhou Mansion is bad, there is really no good place to go, Governor Ji chose a place under the Xiliang Snow Mountain, although the climate is cold now, but the water source is abundant in all seasons, and when the spring flowers bloom in the next year, the products are also extremely rich, you only need to pick twenty snow lotus plants from the snow mountain every year and send them to Xizhou Mansion for business. ”
Qin Wan read the original book, and Xiao Yan was taken care of by Ji Changyu and moved to Xiliang Snow Mountain.
Although Xiliang Snow Mountain is bitterly cold, it is already the best and most suitable place to live in the entire Xizhou.
"Thank you, Governor Ji, I'm tired of General Xu." Xiao Yan secretly glanced at Qin Wan.
When she arrives in Xiliang Snow Mountain, will she leave?
If he could, he wished the road was a little longer, a little longer......
They rested for one night, and the next day they rushed to the Xiliang Snow Mountain.
Xiliang Snow Mountain is in the southwest of Xizhou Prefecture, 800 miles longitudinal and horizontal, and is the junction of Yan and Xiliang Kingdom, Huqiu Country and Tianxi Kingdom.
They traveled for nearly three days, and at noon on the third day, they arrived at a dilapidated small village in Danyi County, Xiliangxue Mountain.
"Half a year ago, Governor Ji and Xiliang and Huqiu privately opened trade exchanges, built a trading city, and moved the people of some nearby villages over. Xu Mao Qin said.
It can be seen that they are indeed very concerned about settling Xiao Yan and his party.
Xu Maoqin has already sent someone to clean these houses simply, there is no dust and cobwebs in the houses, as long as they are simply cleaned up, they can live in them.
"The last general will be stationed in Danyi County for the next two years, and if General Xiao has something to do, even if he comes to order the last general, the last general will never give up!" Xu Maoqin said respectfully.
"That's already good, thank you General Xu for your trouble." Xiao Yan said.
"The last general heard that the general's clan is still on the way, and has sent someone to meet it, so the general can rest assured that he will stay here."
When Xu Maoqin left, Qin Wan began to look at this small village all the way.
There were only twenty or thirty houses in total, but it was enough for the exiles.
Throughout the village, three winding paths are connected, eventually connecting to a clearing in the middle of the village.
Each family is not far away from each other, and their lives do not interfere with each other, but if there is something, they can also gather together.
Qin Wan looked at this village, and seemed to be able to flash in his mind how these people lived before.
Going around to the westernmost part of the village, there are three houses at the foot of the hill, and next to the northernmost house is a road up the mountain.
Qin Wan took a fancy to the southernmost one, although it was the most dilapidated, it covered a large area, only a small road connected to it, even if the village was full of people at that time, it was very secluded.
It will be a while before Apricot comes over, and she will stay here for the time being.
Thinking of this, Qin Wan cleaned up diligently by himself.
was busy, and suddenly saw Xiao Yan, Wuhai and Zang Qi coming over.
Coming to Qin Wan, Wu Hai bowed, "Mrs. Xiao, the poor monk is here to say goodbye." ”
"Farewell? Where is the mage going? Qin Wan asked.
Wuhai said: "The poor monk heard that the Tianxi country to the princes and generals, down to the people of Limin, all of them respect the Buddha, the poor monks have long been going to observe, and now they have been to Xizhou, just to go." ”
"I see." Qin Wan thought about it, took out two silver tickets from his arms, and handed them to Wuhai, "The mage has worked hard with us all the way, and these silver should be regarded as the travel expenses I sponsored for the mage to go to Tianxi Kingdom, and please ask the mage to accept it." ”
"The monks don't accept these yellow and white things, since everyone in Tianxi Kingdom respects the Buddha and worships the Buddha, the poor monks can fast all the way over." Gokai Road.
Qin Wan was silent, turned around and entered the house, took out a bag of baked cakes and snacks from the space, came out and handed them to Wuhai, "In this case, the mage will accept these foods, and I wish the mage a smooth journey." ”
This time, Wuhai didn't refuse, accepted the snack, thanked Qin Wan, and left.
After Wuhai left, only the three of them were left.
After sending Wuhai away, Qin Wan returned to his senses and said to Zang Qi: "Zang Qi, you clean up here, I'll go to Danyi County." ”
Although there are a lot of things in her space, she can't take them out of thin air, she still has to go to the county town and buy something to cover up, so that she can take out the things in her space and use them.
Leaving Zang Qi, Qin Wan went to the empty flat to untie the camel's rope and turned over
When she came just now, she saw Danyi County from a distance and roughly knew the location of the county seat.
It's about an hour away from here, and it's not that far from this place in Xizhou.
As soon as she got on the camel and was about to set off, she saw Xiao Yan also follow.
"What are you doing here?" Qin Wan asked.
Xiao Yan said lightly: "I'll go with you." ”
Qin Wan teased, "You're not afraid of me running, are you?" ”
"Will you run, then?" Xiao Yan turned over the camel and looked at her faintly.
"I can't tell, it depends on my mood." Qin Wan raised the corners of his lips and drove the camel in the direction of Danyi County.
Xiao Yan also silently followed.
More than an hour later, Danyi County.
From the gate of the county seat, you can see the garrison in the northwest.
Xu Maoqin should be there.
However, they didn't bother Xu Maoqin and went directly into Danyi County.
To the right of the city gate is a huge bazaar, and the first one that opens the door is actually a water seller.
Xiliang Snow Mountain is the only place in the entire Xizhou capital that has abundant water sources, and there is a special profession here, water extractor.
In the winter, they either bring water from Xiliang or climb to the snow-capped mountains to get water, and in the summer, part of the snow on the snow-capped mountains will melt, bringing them abundant water, and these waters, from these water shops, are transported to all parts of Xizhou.
