Half a month has passed since Yan changed its country name to Xia, and the time has reached mid-March.

The mountains, villages, and fields near and far are immersed in the lush spring greenery, and in Yanjing City, the streets are steaming, and the bustling crowds come and go, with the phrase of King Xia "to improve the status of merchants"

A large number of caravans from the south to the north and from the east to the west converged on this new country, and the cities of all sizes were more lively than ever.

Cattle, sheep and horses from the western grasslands have been entering Yanzhou since last month, filling a large number of sheds in the livestock areas of the Yanjing trade for merchants from various states to pick and buy.

After these two years, the slave people had some money in their pockets, and at this time, they gathered in groups, carrying hunting bows and hunting knives, carrying all kinds of furs, to Yanjing to buy some Xia people's things, and even buy rouge gouache for their wives at home.

But more of them are grain, cotton and linen, and livestock.

When you enter the city and go to the streets, what you see is no longer just the north or the Central Plains, occasionally a few streets, you can also see some jewelry from the Xirong people or the snow native slaves, as well as various carvings and musical instruments from the seventy-two countries of the Western Regions.

Some scholars and literati who don't look down on these walk into the study, look at the Yan Guo documents that are about to be withdrawn, buy a few copies as a collection, or flip through them with a sigh, and they are no longer nostalgic.

After King Xia ascended the throne, the reform of writing and books had begun preliminarily, although there was a lot of harm to the family, but I also knew that the newly enthroned emperor was not like those emperors in the past.

Especially in the imperial examination, even though they opposed it, the scholars of the people vigorously respected it, and faintly pushed the new emperor to the level of the king of sage.

It is rumored that in the book "My Huaxia" that is being compiled, there is a sentence from His Majesty today: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations!" The words are regarded as wise sayings.

Following the Shinong Industrial and Commercial Army, vigorously promote piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, riding and shooting.

That is, five subjects and six arts.

Relatively to complete such a huge thing, Wang Lang almost locked himself in Longteng Pavilion, writing one Chinese character after another, and after writing a few thousand words, he began to sort and annotate the meaning of each word.

In the afternoon, he began to write the book "My Huaxia" for Su Chen, which was used to spread the idea of the king and the idea of dominating the world.

On the other hand, Su Chen has also officially entered the palace, and Fang Xuejun was named the queen and held a post-sealing ceremony.

And together summoned the envoys of the three kingdoms of the Western Regions who had been waiting for a long time, for these small countries, Su Chen did not deliberately embarrass them, after all, they surrendered to the ghosts, and did not have much autonomy, just simply gave some beatings, and then threw a few sweet dates, so that the Western Regions, the grassland, the northern lands, and then the Central Plains, connected into a new trade route.

"I like mutually beneficial things, I won't talk about the past, and now you have switched to me, which is a good thing, and I like you like this."

Su Chen actually doesn't like this kind of thing, but the king of a country must have the measure and tolerance of the king of a country, as well as the blade that makes the enemy fearful.

"But you have to remember that I am not always so gentle to talk to you, I can kill through thousands of miles of grassland, kill the ghosts in his tribe, and I can also drive troops to the Western Regions, push the city and destroy the country, do you understand?"

In the Xuande Palace, the envoys of the Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions knelt on the ground, and occasionally someone raised their faces slightly to catch a glimpse of the figure above, and quickly lowered their gaze.

"The subordinate understands." They are all proficient in Yan Mandarin, and they may have to learn the Chinese language in the future, and they don't know if it is difficult to learn.

"That's fine, go back and tell your king that I have only one request, see my hand, and the army in the country will be at my disposal at any time." Su Chen sat on the dragon chair and raised his hand to let the eunuch bring some gifts in return, "This is a gift to your monarch, and there is also a flag of mine, remember to plant it in the city." ”

"Thank you for the reward from the Son of Heaven!" The three of them hurriedly kowtowed to thank them.

After sending away the three foreign envoys, Su Chen glanced at Fang Xuejun, who was trying to keep Empress Fengyi, she was sitting upright and her pretty face was meticulous.

"Okay, everyone is gone, you can go back too."

Fang Xuejun finally exhaled and gently rubbed his waist, "Your Majesty, what about you?" ”

"I have other things to do, go and send someone."

Su Chen patted the back of her hand, and after seeing the queen disappear at the side gate of the main hall accompanied by Li Wangqiu, he got up and took Dian Wei and Xu Chu to leave the main hall here, went to the west gate of the imperial city, took an inconspicuous carriage, and drove straight to the outside of Yanjing City.

The market was bustling with noise and shouting, and the inconspicuous carriage and two giant men in civilian clothes with black hair on their chests marched through the market.

When he arrived five miles outside the city, a carriage and five hundred soldiers were already waiting there, and when he saw the incoming carriage stop behind, Su Chen came out of it.

Five hundred sergeants knelt on their knees.

"No need to call it, get up."

Su Chen walked in front of them and raised his hand casually, then strode up to the waiting chariot in front of him and got inside.

"King Xia?" The ignorant Beigong Shu tilted his head and looked at the man who came in suspiciously.

The mother next to him struggled to get up and salute, but Su Chen held her shoulder and sat back.

"If you are inconvenient, don't salute."

Looking at the woman's high bulging lower abdomen, "When you get over there, there will be many people who will take care of you, and I will come over from time to time, and I will ...... later" Su Chen looked at Beigong Shu who was playing in the corner, "He has grown up a little, I will give you a new identity and take you over." ”

Jiang Wan lowered her head, gently stroked her bulging lower abdomen, and pursed the corners of her mouth in silence.

Syllable!

Su Chen suddenly patted the buttocks on the side of the woman's skirt, causing her face to turn red, and she heard the voice of the man next to her say: "If you don't speak, it's so decided, don't shake your head, don't say a word." ”

After finishing speaking, she looked at the man in front of her with a red face, nodded subconsciously, her heart was beating wildly, and she watched Su Chen get up and walk out of the carriage, and then, the carriage moved slowly, she quickly moved to the window and opened the curtain, watching Su Chen turn over and look at her on the side of the road.

"Queen Mother...... Am I not going to be an emperor anymore? ”

"Well, in the future, Shu'er can play everywhere and don't have to be an emperor."

"Great! I can play as much as I want! Beigong Shu happily clenched his small fists and waved them excitedly.

Looking at her son's happy appearance, Jiang Wan suddenly felt that maybe it was the best choice to let him live like this carefree, her eyes were slightly moist, and she continued to look out the car window, such a scene, she hadn't seen it for many years.

The barracks on the southeast and southwest sides of Yanjing Mountain, a group of troops that frightened the hearts of the world, the tents that stretched, the teachings of the governor's horse were heard from time to time, and the gentleman who taught writing worked hard to let a group of old men recognize and read the words he wrote, constantly repeating them back and forth.

It is hard to imagine that this group of soldiers who have frightened the people of Xijon sat together, watching the words written by the gentleman, blushing and reading them one by one.

There were also slave soldiers who couldn't read clearly, and when they read a few words, they were ridiculed by everyone, and then they pulled out the double axes on their waists in annoyance and roared: "Ahhh ”

The next moment, the Overseer lifted the curtain and poked his head in, and the slave man shut up, put the two axes back on his waist, sat up straight, and continued to read the words he had just written.

After a while, the whistle of opening the meal sounded outside, and a group of rough men picked up their respective food boxes from under the stools, rushed to kill the enemy, opened the tent curtain and ran to the place where the meal was opened.

Hearing the sound of 'joyful' footsteps outside, Li Jing put down the military book he was writing, stroked his beard and laughed, such a military camp life is so interesting, a group of soldiers who are obviously fierce have such a cute side, and His Majesty let the soldiers also read and write, which surprised him.

However, I probably also understand that this is to enable the lower levels of the entire army to be enlightened and quickly understand the combat intention in the future war, rather than losing the generals and leaders, and not knowing what to do.

He got up and picked up his food box, walked out of the handsome tent, and was about to let the guards cook for him, when suddenly there was a voice: "Master, long time no see." ”

Li Jing turned his head suddenly, a veteran wearing Mingguang armor, with a tall body, but with a bun and a gray beard, leading a horse and holding a spear, and a water-worn steel whip around his waist.

"Ding...... Formula!! ”

The old man froze in place, then laughed heartily and greeted the other man with open arms.

In the distance in Yanjing City, in the former general's mansion, Lu Bu was lying on the wooden couch for a nap, and when the footsteps of the maids and servants walked outside, a low, crisp voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Daddy......"

As if the voice in the dream sounded, he didn't open his eyes, but just wanted to listen to it again in the dream.

"Daddy......"

The voice came again, Lu Bu couldn't help but smile slightly at the corner of his mouth, he hadn't heard his daughter's voice for too long, and suddenly felt an itch between his nose, he quickly opened his eyes, a familiar face was in front of him, and a girl pinched her hair and teased his nose.

"Lingqi ......"

Bang! Lu Bu instantly turned over and sat up, the wooden couch broke from the middle in an instant, and the huge movement startled the girl, "Dad? ”

Lingqi ...... Is it really you? ”

"It's really me!" The girl covered her mouth and cried.

"No, why are you so young...... Are you ......" Lu Bu reacted, grabbed his daughter's shoulder, looked carefully, and gradually gritted his teeth.

Lu Lingqi shook her head and wiped her tears: "Cao Thief is actually not embarrassed...... It's that the mother and daughter don't want to live in the world...... Committed suicide by taking poison. ”

Lu Bu pursed his lips, and he hugged his daughter into his arms, "It's your father who hurt you, but it's okay...... Dad is alive, you are alive, and Dad is going to bring your mother over! ”

"Really?" The girl's eyes were wet and red.

Lu Bu didn't speak, just nodded heavily, he knew how to let his past relatives come back, thinking of this, he looked at the slim daughter in front of him, and his happy mouth couldn't close, so that the servants outside hurriedly set up a banquet.

"I'm so happy with Lu Bu today, hahaha!"

The spring daylight continues.

In another mansion, when Qin Qiong walked towards the side courtyard with two jars of wine, he saw a figure with gray hair, wearing bright light armor, and carrying a long-handled axe, lying on the crescent moon gate and probing his brain into the courtyard.

The big waist and round back made him familiar for a while, and he leaned towards the other party with his steps.

The man was still looking inside, and he seemed to be aware of Qin Qiong who came over and looked back, which surprised Qin Qiong at the same time, but the other party didn't react, squinted his eyes, and muttered: "Old Qin, that guy inside seems to be Yu Chi Heitan." ”

"Old Cheng?"

"What are you shouting ......" The old fat man who was looking suddenly realized something, touched his face, and then looked at Qin Qiong who looked surprised next to him, stretched out his hand and plucked it on his beard, and Qin Qiong, who was in pain, almost jumped up and punched him.

"I'm alive, Lao Cheng?"

Wei Chigong, who heard the movement, came from the small courtyard and saw Cheng Biting Jin at the door of the crescent moon, and his dark old face also smiled, and walked over with a big smile.

After a long while, after listening to Qin Qiong's speech, the old fat man named Cheng Biting Jin was not shocked, he lost the axe in his hand, and raised it above his head with his hands folded.

"My mother said, I am blessed, this kind of thing has happened to me."

Meizhou, Dong Zhuo was carrying a sawtooth knife in the courtyard, dancing like a tiger, and then chased Li Dao, who had just done something wrong, and ran all over the courtyard, panting and pointing at the other party: "Look how I clean you up——"

In the afterglow, Dong Zhuo stopped, Li Dao also stopped, the two looked at the corridor, and a Confucian scholar stood under the eaves of the corridor and looked at them with a smile.

"Virtuous son-in-law, I miss you to death!" Dong Zhuo threw away the knife, rushed towards the other party viciously, pulled the scribe into his arms, and slapped him on the back a few times like a bear hugging a tree.

"Wenyou!"

Li Wei was also overjoyed and strode up to meet him: "Hahaha, my Xiliang Army has another boost!" ”

He leaned up, Dong Zhuo didn't look at him, raised his hand and pressed his face to push the scribe who was hugged to the side crying and laughing.

The two brothers Ma Chao and Ma Dai, who had something to do, looked at the scene in the courtyard and laughed, and the two brothers turned around together, and it turned out that there was a person standing behind them, surnamed Pang and famous!

Suizhou.

Guan Yu stood at the head of the city, looking at the Huai River, his beautiful hair drooped his chest and stroked it, and his phoenix eyes were full of gratitude, "Your Majesty's grace, Guan should repay him with death!" ”

On his side, Zhou Cang was holding the green dragon glaive, and on the other side, a young general wearing a green robe and two grades of armor, holding a copy of "The Left Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period", was looking at his father beside him with a smile.

Within the city walls, rows of houses and courtyards, Zhang Fei's laughter shook the green tiles of the roof, the door slammed open, and he pulled a young man out in stride.

"Second brother, come and see your nephew, he's back!"

The big reckless man screamed and cried out with joy.

Gyeongju.

Zhang Liao looked at the veteran holding a Xuanhua axe in front of him, and opened his arms: "Gongming, Liao welcomes you back!" ”

Old friends who haven't seen each other for many years get together again at this moment.

Luyang.

Xiahou Yuan knelt in the temple and cried at Cao Cao's spiritual seat on the offering table, followed by a one-eyed general, slamming his knees on the futon.

Yanzhou, Zhao Yun rode on the back of the horse in astonishment, looking at the roar of a white horse opposite, and a female general in armor above raised a gun at him.

"Husband, do you dare to race with your concubine again?"

On this day, countless people saw the precious people in their lives, reunited together, lived, struggled, and walked in this new land of China
