Chapter 217: Envoy to Yunnan

Early the next morning, Chen Kan was still in the quilt and warmed up with the big-eyed cute girl.

Just as he was about to carry a gunfight, Leng Buding heard Yun Cheng's voice ring outside the door.

"My lord, the imperial history of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court is already waiting in the guest hall at this moment. ……”

Hearing this, Chen Kan was originally very interested, but suddenly seemed to be doused by a basin of cold water.

Chen Kan angrily put on a fox fur and went out of the room, and said angrily: "The New Year, do you want to die?" ”

Yun Cheng looked at Chen Kan's unhappy face and also beat a drum in his heart, he had learned Chen Kan's anger many times. If you don't do it, you will be beaten up!

"Which imperial history, is there anything that can't be said another day, come to find death in the morning, and Lao Tzu will fulfill him."

As soon as Chen Kan said this, Yun Cheng suddenly felt a little embarrassed, it was a big holiday, and someone came to visit him, isn't it a sign of the prosperity of the family business, this is a good thing!

Seeing Chen Kan angrily heading towards the guest hall, Yun Cheng was excited and hurriedly chased after him.

It's not good to really get people killed during the New Year.

After all, this son's brain circuit is indeed different from ordinary people, and if he really wants to start a surge, it doesn't matter what festival it is.

"Childe, wait for me!"

Chen Kan walked to the guest hall angrily, and saw that the green-robed official who had been forcibly changed seats by himself yesterday was waiting in class with a restrained face.

Seeing Chen Kan appear, the imperial history hurriedly got up to greet him.

"Chen An, the imperial history of the Xiaguan Imperial Inspectorate, has seen an adult."

is the so-called stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, not to mention that the attitude of this imperial history is so respectful.

Chen Kan's anger when he got up suddenly dissipated a lot.

"Excuse me, I don't know what is the important matter of Chen Yushi's visit to this official for the New Year?"

Faced with Chen Kan's salty and indifferent inquiry, the imperial history was stunned.

Then he said cautiously: "Lord Chen, it's time for us to go?" ”

"Go?"

"Where are you going?"

Chen Kan looked confused?

Could it be some New Year's event unique to the Ming Dynasty?

That imperial history is even more confused than Chen Kan, and His Majesty has made it very clear yesterday.

Chen Kan was appointed as the minister of the Qin mission and inspected Yunnan.

Why is this Lord Chen in a state of ignorance?

This......

It shouldn't be!

However, Chen Kan asked, and he still respectfully bowed his hand and said, "Go to Yunnan." ”

"To Yunnan?"

"When did I say I was going to Yunnan?"

Chen Kan looked stunned.

Then the fox said suspiciously: "You came to the official for the New Year's Eve to have fun, right?" ”

"You go out to inquire, in the whole capital, who the dares to tease me Chen Kan, I think you are here to find death!"

The official was even more stunned, co-authored with this Lord Chen is a fish, and his memory is only seven seconds?

However, seeing that Chen Kan's face was getting more and more ugly, he hurriedly explained: "Lord Chen misunderstood, when His Majesty gave you food yesterday, Qin named you the minister of the Qin Mission, and led the Imperial History sent by the Metropolitan Procuratorate to inspect the effectiveness of Yunnan's policy of changing the land and returning to the stream, don't you remember?" ”

"Huh?"

"Damn, is this still the case?"

Chen Kan flax was stunned, didn't you see that I went to bed yesterday?

Where do I know where to go?

"Really?"

Chen Kan was still a little unconvinced, and he suspected that the Ming New Year was likely to have a trick-playing activity similar to April Fool's Day.

"Of course it's true, the holy decree is here in Xiaguan, you can take a look."

When Chen Kan saw the holy decree that Chen An took out with the big word Chen Kan written on it, he was stunned again.

"Grass (a plant), what's the situation?"

In an instant, Chen Kan turned into a C language master, and the expression on his face began to become cloudy.

Damn, Zhu Di, this old Deng, let him go to Yunnan without discussing it with him in advance.

Is there still a royal law, is there still a law?

That's Yunnan.

Forget it from afar, there are still wild people running around the mountains with wooden sticks, so dangerous.

Chen Kan put away the holy decree and greeted Zhu Di's elders again in his heart!

He looked at Chen An: "Can't you go by yourself, anyway, it's just a formality." ”

Chen An's mouth opened wide, he suspected that he was hallucinating.

What words, what words this is?

Is this human talk?

What does it mean to go out of form, doesn't he know what it means to be a minister?

Chen An said to Ai Ai: "If you don't go, I'm afraid ...... I'm afraid not! ”

Chen Kan suddenly said angrily: "Why don't you go in with oil and salt, anyway, I won't go to Yunnan, you like to go yourself!" ”

Chen An never thought that his outlook on life would be affected like this, what happened to this Lord Chen?

I really want to slap him in the face.

Who is the master of oil and salt?

He said indifferently: "Lord Chen, you are disrespectful to the will. ”

Chen Kan stopped: "Resist the will, resist the will, anyway, I won't go, whoever likes to go." ”

That's Yunnan, the Yunnan of the Ming Dynasty, is that a place where people can go?

According to his classmate Li Tong, the current Yunnan can be described in four words: "Poor mountains and bad waters." ”

The key is to return the people to a strong style, those savage-like mountain people are terrible, and they still eat people.

From Li Tong's description alone, Chen Kan can imagine that the current Yunnan is definitely not the animal and plant kingdom that was like spring all year round in later generations.

Chen An is also quite helpless, why is this master so difficult to serve?

If you don't listen to Your Majesty's arrangement in the palace, forget it, and now you still want to resist the decree, can you resist the holy decree casually?

If he doesn't want to lose his head, doesn't he realize the seriousness of the problem?

Thinking of this, Chen An decided to work harder, he took a deep breath, and said: "Lord Chen, I'm afraid you have to go to Yunnan, Your Majesty's will has been made clear to the world, and there is no reason to change it." ”

"Yo Ho, you still dare to threaten me?"

Chen Kan stared at Chen An with an unkind face, and he had the intention of hurting people if he didn't agree with him.

Chen An Lingran was not afraid, he looked directly at Chen Kan's gaze, and said indifferently: "If the lord really doesn't go, the lower officials can only report to Your Majesty truthfully." ”

Chen Kan narrowed his eyes: "You threaten me?" ”

Chen An raised his head and was about to defend himself, when a sharp call suddenly came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty's Message~"

Hearing this voice, Chen An immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, for Chen Kan, a ruthless man who likes to burn other people's houses if he doesn't agree with him, his pressure is not ordinary.

Chen Kan frowned and rushed out of the courtyard.

As soon as the little eunuch saw Chen Kan running out of the courtyard angrily, he immediately retreated back with his hands on his chest with a frightened face.

Chen ...... Lord Chen, Your Majesty has a message for you. ”

"Say!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty told you to go to Yunnan quickly, and ...... Say that if you dare to find any excuse to delay time, just... Disqualify you from this year's college examination and break your legs......"

"I... I'm done......"

The little eunuch was intimidated by Chen Kan's momentum, and after trembling and conveying Zhu Di's order, he turned around and ran.

Chen Kan stayed where he was, he closed his eyes, and had to accept this sudden news.

After a moment, he opened his eyes.

He would not doubt Zhu Di's determination, even if he was his son-in-law, he said that if he wanted to break his legs, he would not break only one.

In other words, this trip to Yunnan, he really went to decide.

"Hoo ......"

With a long exhalation, Chen Kan's face calmed down.

Chen An, who had just come out with him, asked lightly, "Lord Chen, can we set off now?" ”

"Yes!"

After Chen Kan spit out two words from between his teeth, he turned to look at Yun Cheng on the side and scolded angrily: "What are you still stunned for, what are you going to travel far!" ”

This look of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard made Chen An's face twitch again.

"The villain is going to prepare."

Yun Cheng woke up like a dream, and commanded the subordinates in the mansion to move around like headless flies.

Half an hour later, Chen Kan looked at the convoy full of more than a dozen carriages in front of him with a black face, and couldn't help kicking Yun Cheng's ass.

"Childe is going on a business trip, not a trip!"

Yun Cheng's face was a little aggrieved, but ...... Don't dare to talk back!

Zhu Yuelan grabbed Chen Kan's arm and said worriedly: "Husband, I heard that Yunnan is dangerous, otherwise let's go into the palace and beg my father to let him go to another person." ”

Chen Kan patted her hand and said: "It's useless, Your Majesty has already given a death order, I have to go to Yunnan this time, you stay at home obediently, if you are bored, go to His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun to play." ”

Suddenly, there was a sad atmosphere of parting in the air.

"My lord, if we delay any longer, we won't be able to reach the Chuzhou boundary today."

Chen Kan was about to have a parting kiss, but a sinister voice suddenly sounded, and Chen Kan had to be separated from the big-eyed cute girl in a reluctant emotion.

Out of the Zhengyang Gate, the Qincha team of the southern tour has been quietly waiting at the city gate.

Among them, there are three imperial histories sent by the Imperial Procuratorate, a hundred households sent by the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to protect the personal safety of several imperial histories, and a hundred households under the command of Fang Xu led by Chen Kan, a total of more than 200 people.

Since Chen Kan was traveling as a messenger this time, the road he took could only be planned by the imperial court.

Out of the south of Zhili, into Jiangxi, across the lake, into Guizhou, to Yunnan.

The moment Chen Kan got the line, he wanted to scold his mother.

Which fucking idiot is this line being planned?

It turned out to be a land route, is this because he is afraid that he will not die in Yunnan?

Obviously, I went all the way up the river along the river, and after arriving in Chongqing, I turned to the southwest and entered Yunnan from Doushaguan Wuchi Road, but I had to plan to take the land route, isn't this a disgusting person?

Seeing this, Chen An on the side couldn't help but remind in a low voice: "Lord Chen, this is what Your Majesty meant. ”

The unhappiness on Chen Kan's face suddenly subsided.

That's what Your Majesty meant.

That's fine!

"Let's go!"

Chen Kan turned over and got on his horse, followed the route given by Zhu Di, left the Beijing Division, and turned west.

The primary purpose of Chen Kan's mission was to inspect Yunnan and investigate the actual results of the policy of changing the land and returning it to the river.

But at the same time, it also shoulders the important task of investigating the livelihood of local people.

The reason why Zhu Di arranged for them to go by land was for this purpose.

It's fast to go up the river, but it's ...... Zhu Di asked them to see the people's livelihood in various places, not to see the river!

That's the way it is!

But Chen Kan is just very unhappy.

Because the road conditions of Daming are really too bad.

The road in Jiangnan is okay, at least the terrain in Jiangnan is flat, and Jiangnan is an important place for Ming finance and taxation, and the official road is quite wide.

But Chen Kan had traveled to Guizhou and Yunnan in his previous life, and he knew how difficult it was for his group to walk the entire Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau without a highway.

On the first day, a team of 200 people hurried into Chuzhou City before dark.

After staying at the post station in Chuzhou City, Chen Kan went into the room and began to count the time with his fingers.

Chuzhou is one hundred and sixty miles away from Jingshi, and they walked for a whole day, and this is still the case of not sparing horsepower.

From Beijing to Yunnan, nearly 4,000 miles, even if you don't care about horsepower, it will take at least a month.

Not to mention that the Qincha team had to deal with the local government when they went to various places.

If there is a delay of 10 days or 8 days in Yunnan, it will be almost three months.

And the time of the hospital examination is February 28, the last day of February, that is, when I come back from Yunnan, the hospital examination is likely to have passed?

For a moment, Chen Kan wanted to scold his mother.

Co-author Zhu Di didn't want to let himself participate in the imperial examination?

It's a pity that it's useless to scold my mother now, it has become an established fact to send an envoy to Yunnan, and all Chen Kan can do is to try to compress the time.

"If you drive lightly, set off at midnight every day, and camp at midnight, you can walk an extra forty miles every day without sparing horsepower.

Traveling 200 miles a day, without dealing with the local government, the round-trip journey can be compressed to about 50 days.

When I arrived in Yunnan to play for ten days and half a month, it was still too late.

I just don't know if those weak chickens in the Imperial Court can accept such a high-intensity rush!

No matter, I'm the biggest in the team anyway, I have the final say! ”

After muttering to himself for a while, Chen Kan suddenly missed the cars and high-speed trains of later generations.

The daily march of two hundred miles is converted into kilometers, that is, one hundred kilometers, and it is more than an hour's journey by car.

The high-speed rail is faster, and it will arrive in one click.

But in this era, a hundred kilometers is a proper high-intensity march, and this is still under the configuration of all light cavalry.

In later generations, Chen Kan often saw 800 miles in film and television dramas, BMW 800 miles a day and the like.

But after Chen Kan's actual experiment, it was found that the person who said these words was simply farting.

No BMW can run 400 kilometers in a day.

After running for 100 kilometers, the war horses are basically tired, and the people are basically tired.

This 100 kilometers, it is also divided into four sections to run, and after running twenty or thirty kilometers, you have to stop and rest, and feed and water the war horse Shunmao to cool down, otherwise the war horse is easy to be burned to death directly because of the high temperature!

"Grass (a plant), it's good to have a little electric donkey!"

Incarnated as a master of the C language again, Chen Kan suddenly felt that it was urgent to promote the industrialization of the Ming Dynasty.

But when I thought that Daming couldn't even build the most primitive steam engine now, I could only crook it in my heart.

"My lord, a group of people suddenly came outside the door, saying that we took their place!"

Just when Chen Kan was crooked in his heart, a noisy quarrel suddenly sounded outside the door.

Chen Kan rolled over from the hard stone bed and sat up.

said angrily: "For the New Year, where did the people come from, they dared to rob the post station with the official, and they were impatient?" ”
