"This is Madame's personal maid?" Looking at the maidservant in front of him, Yang Ming was a little confused.

The maid is extremely good-looking, her hands are like soft wattles, her skin is like clotted fat, her eyes are bright and her teeth are bright, and she is beautiful and delicious.

If Zhang Yi hadn't told the origin, he would have thought that Wang Yi was here.

"Madame is worried that Shaojun will be seasick and unwell, and she is also afraid that Shaojun will not be comfortable living in Beihai, so she will send a maid to take care of her." Before Zhang Yi could speak, the maid replied.

When she said this, Yang Ming remembered the previous seasickness in Hedong.

"What's your name?" Yang Ming then asked.

"The servant is called Ah Yi." The handmaid replied.

Yang Ming smiled when he heard this, the maidservants generally don't have names, they are all randomly named by the owner, and "one" means "head", which is quite consistent with the identity of the personal maid.

He finally nodded, yes.

Wang Yi has a heart, he refuses to be inappropriate, and besides, this maid is eye-catching, and it is no big problem to carry it.

After arranging Ah Yi, he went to see the ox cart again.

Today he will leave for Mengjin and prepare to take a boat to Beihai.

"Be careful with these Du Kang wines, don't break them." Yang Ming saw that the servant was carrying wine and admonished.

At this moment, Yang Qi's carriage also entered the alley.

Today was supposed to be a day off, but Yang Qi received the edict early in the morning, saying that he had something important to discuss, and went out to Shizhong Temple early in the morning.

Shizhong Temple is specially set up by Liu Hong, and its function is to divide the power of Shangshutai, so it is also called "judging Shangshushi", which means reviewing Shangshutai's performance.

"Ziqian, you and I come to the study." Yang Qi got out of the carriage and spoke.

Yang Ming was quite surprised, followed Yang Qi into the study, and closed the door.

"Father was called to the temple this morning to order Cao Cao for that Dunqiu." Yang Qi said.

"What happened to Meng De?" Yang Ming immediately asked.

"He was in Dunqiu to ignore people's lives, and tortured and killed without authorization, Shang Shu Ling Yangqiu took more than ten letters to see the Son of Heaven, but Cao Jie said on the side that Cao Cao was not a person who killed indiscriminately, but only punished the prisoners, Zhao Zhong, Zhang Rang and others all agreed, and that Qiao Gong also said for him, and His Majesty finally did not punish him!" Yang Qi's face was quite angry.

Yang Qi's anger is understandable, Cao Jie is the grandson of Cao Teng, Cao Teng is the former Da Changqiu, and Cao Jie and others have kindness, and now Cao Cao is killing as a son of a eunuch, how can he not be angry as a scholar?

"I know that you and that Cao Cao are friends of bamboo horses, but this person was born as a eunuch, likes to kill innocents indiscriminately, and he killed people in Luoyang Stick at the beginning, and now he is in Dunqiu and has a bad life, you have to stay away." Yang Qi immediately admonished.

"Got it." Yang Ming didn't refute anything.

"How's your stuff going?" When Yang Qi saw Yang Ming's appearance, he realized that his words were a bit heavy, so he diverted the topic.

"It's all ready, just waiting for my father to come back."

Yang Qi adjusted his mood when he heard this, got up and took Yang Ming out of the study.

From the study to the door, Yang Qi told all the way.

"Now that there are many displaced people, be more careful on the road, and write a letter when you arrive." Yang Qi finally reluctantly said.

Yang Ming nodded and got into the car.

"Remember not to be reckless outside, everything is based on caution." Yang Qi added.

"Father don't worry, my son is already a man who has been on the battlefield." Yang Ming replied with a smile.

Yang Qi was stunned when he heard this, and finally stopped speaking and waved his hand.

Yang Ming and his entourage of more than ten vehicles, nearly 100 people, left Luli and headed towards the east of the city.

Although they traveled by water, the distance between Donglai and Luoyang was nearly 2,000 li, and the average speed of the ships was 70 to 100 khan li per day, which took at least 20 days.

Counting the overland route after going ashore, it will take nearly a month, to say the least.

It's still a smooth ride, and if you stop in a rainstorm, it will take more than a month.

If Yang Ming wanted to stay somewhere halfway, it would be even longer.

And this time it was completely different from the previous Yang Ming's expedition and annexation of the state, it was for war, and many things were simple.

But this is not necessarily the case when you go to study.

The first is to guard more than ten people, if you encounter bandits, you can protect Yang Ming's safety.

With these people, including Yang Ming, there will be a lot of change of clothes.

If you change clothes on the way, you need to arrange a maid to follow.

Then there's the issue of eating.

There are not ferries everywhere along the Yellow River, and there are post booths at any time, so you must bring enough dry food.

However, for the rest of the month, it is inevitable that it is impossible to eat only dry food, after all, this is not a march to fight.

So either on the boat or on the shore to cook a pot.

The first one wants ingredients, the second wants the cook, and the third wants pots and pans.

In addition, you also need to bring a lot of belongings (there are no banks in the Eastern Han Dynasty), books (necessary for entertainment when you sit on a boat for such a long time), bundles (required for apprenticeship in the Han Dynasty), weapons, and so on.

More than ten cars, more than 100 people team seems to be huge, but it is also indispensable.

After they arrived in Mengjin, the cargo began to be loaded onto the ship.

Due to the turbulent flow of the Yellow River and the topographical factors, there are not many places that can be used to build ferries.

In the Guanzhong area, there are only a few places in Hedong Puban, Hongnong Maojin, Hanoi Xiaopingjin and Mengjin.

Mengjin is the largest ferry, from Hebei to Luoyang, most of them pass here, so this is also one of the most prosperous ferries.

People came and went, and the loading speed was naturally slow, and it took them half a day.

As a last resort, they had to sleep on the ship for the night.

At dawn the next day, the boatmen sailed, and a fleet of more than ten ships sailed down the river.

Yang Ming stood at the bow of the ship at this time, looking back, the prosperous Mengjin was far away, and the Vermilion Bird Wuque that was connected to the sky in Luoyang City gradually disappeared into the sky.

He turned around, and there were two other people in the bow at this time, one was the maidservant Ah Yi, and the other was Zhang Liao.

Ah Yi was cooking wine at this time, and Zhang Liao was helping on the side.

When he went to Donglai, he did not take Zhang Yi with him, but left him to continue to take care of Wang Yi in Luoyang.

Yang Ming immediately sat down on the chair he had invented.

Smelling the aroma of wine and looking at the river view, the beginning of this long trip is quite pleasant.

Eight days later, the ship arrived near Puyang.

Because I was traveling in autumn, I didn't encounter heavy rain along the way, and the journey was extremely smooth.

After arriving in Puyang, Yang Ming asked the fleet to temporarily dock on the north shore, rented a carriage with more than 20 people, and went straight to the northwest.

Half a day later, they arrived at the destination of their trip, Dunqiu.

In February of this year, Cao Cao beat Jian Shuo's uncle Jian Tu, ended his post as the northern lieutenant of Luoyang, who had only been in office for more than a month, and was transferred to Dunqiu Ling.

In the Han Dynasty, the county was called long below 10,000 households, with the highest rank of 600 stones, and more than 10,000 households were called orders, with a rank of 1,000 stones.

It must be known that the northern lieutenant of Luoyang only has the right to flog, but does not have the right to kill, and Cao Cao exceeded his authority to kill not only was not punished, but was also promoted.

Otherwise, how could Yang Qi be so angry.

When Yang Ming arrived at the Dunqiu County Ya, he saw a long queue at the door, and most of the people in line were ordinary people in cloth.

This scene made him feel like "Cao Qingtian".

Someone stepped forward to pass the ceremony, and soon he was taken to the back house of the county government by the small officials.

However, Cao Cao was still dealing with government affairs, and he could only wait for a while.

He walked around the official residence and found that there were mostly military books on the shelves.

Cao Cao was well-read, especially fond of military books, and he knew this.

He took a random copy and read it.

Before you know it, it's time to go.

"Ziqian~"

Far away, Yang Ming heard a voice of excitement.

He put down his military book and got up, and then he saw a man appear in the doorway.

The stature is short, the eyes are thin and the hair is long, and the expression is excited, that is Cao Cao Cao Mengde is also.

"Mengde." Yang Ming stepped forward.

But he never thought that Cao Cao suddenly knelt on one knee and gave him a big salute: "Ziqian punished Wang Fu and burned the royal court, it is really a husband's behavior, and I admire him to the extreme!" ”

Seeing this, Yang Ming hurriedly helped him up: "Meng De doesn't have to be like this, it is said that he came to kill Wang Fu, and it was also because of your stick to kill him." ”

"Ziqian's words make me embarrassed, who is he trying to be, how can he be compared with Wang Fu? Even if he killed that Jianshuo, it was less than one-ten-thousandth of what Ziqian did. Cao Cao's eyes were full of admiration.

Yang Ming smiled when he heard this, and secretly said in his heart that it was not Jian Shuo who was killed by Cao Cao's stick.

"They are all the people of the world, and there is no distinction between high and low." As he spoke, he took Cao Cao's hand and pulled Cao Cao to the table and sat down.

At this time, Cao Cao saw a pot of hot wine on the table, and the familiar aroma of wine was refreshing.

"Isn't this it?" Cao Cao swallowed.

"It's Du Kang." Yang Ming said and opened the lid of the wine.

"Ziqian, who knows me." Cao Cao couldn't wait to pick up the flask and pour the wine.

Du Kang wine is a famous wine in Luoyang, and when he was in Luoyang in the past, he wanted to drink it at any time, but when he arrived at this meal, it became a luxury.

"Meng De is not in a hurry, I specially brought you five altars, and I have ordered someone to put them in your library." Yang Ming said with a smile.

Cao Cao paused to look at Yang Ming, put down the wine jug and got up, and walked straight to the bookshelf.

Yang Ming's face was curious.

Not long after, Cao Cao held a bamboo slip in his hand, sat down and handed it to Yang Ming: "This slip is made by me by copying many famous art of war, and I named it "Summary", or it may help Ziqian. ”

Yang Ming was surprised, and handed the bamboo slip back to Cao Cao: "This is your hard work, how dare I accept it." ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "In the past, when I left Luoyang, Ziqian gave me the iron pot that can be used for stir-frying, I should have returned the gift, but unfortunately the military book was not completed at that time, and now Ziqian gave me wine, I should serve it with both hands." ”

"Then I'm disrespectful." When Yang Ming heard that it was not good, he excused himself again, so he took it into his arms.

"Where is Ziqian going?" Cao Cao continued to pour wine and asked after clinking glasses with Yang Ming.

Yang Ming had not written to him before, so it was impossible for him to come to find him.

"Go to Donglai to study." After Yang Ming finished speaking, he drank the wine in the cup.

"Donglai? Zheng Xuan? Cao Cao was stunned.

Yang Ming nodded.

Cao Cao had envy in his eyes at this time.

Now that Yang Ming has become a pavilion marquis, if he worships Zheng Xuan as a teacher again, and stays until the day of the crown, I am afraid that the Son of Heaven will be recruited by bus.

Compared with himself, Yang Ming is three years old, but he is only a county order, and he is still in prison, which is inevitably embarrassing.

After a glass of wine, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Why did Mende sigh?" Yang Ming asked curiously.

Cao Cao put down his wine glass, smiled bitterly and sighed: "In the past, when I was in Luoyang, I didn't know the dangers of the world, but when I stayed in this Dunqiu, I knew what was going on, which was far better than I thought at the beginning." ”

Yang Ming picked up the wine jug and filled Cao Cao's cup, and then said, "I want to hear it." ”
