"Evergreen." Xi Bei was already on the horse, "I'll go with you." ”

"Let's go!"

The whip waved, and the horse galloped out.

Soon, Meng Changqing distanced himself from Xi Bei.

This brown horse of hers is a serious Maxima, which the prince picked for her at the Royal Horse Farm a few years ago.

Her master's horse, though also a good horse, could not keep up with the horse's speed.

The dust that floated in the air was like an unedged knife that brushed her exposed skin.

Meng Changqing measured the horse's speed, and in its heyday, it ran at a high speed, and could run about 100 miles an hour.

She rode her horse and counted the numbers.

From the place where they set up camp to the city wall of Hongjia County, she counted from 1 to 1640.

Due to some subtraction of the road surface, after a simple conversion, it was learned that the length of the wall she was going to build was about forty miles.

Meng Changqing waited under the city wall for a while before Xi Bei arrived.

He sighed, "Your horse is really good, or the emperor's family has good things." ”

"Who's behind?"

Xi Bei turned his head and glanced at it, "A few Royal Forest Soldiers, I'm afraid that you will be in danger." Go back? ”

Meng Changqing was about to nod when he heard a voice above his head, "What person!" ”

It was the soldiers on the city wall who were in charge of the lookout who spotted them and saw that they were dressed in the garments of the girders, which gave them a chance to answer.

"Beishan County County Order." Meng Changqing replied loudly.

"It turned out to be the county magistrate, but the lord wants to enter the city?"

"Thank you for your kindness, don't go into town." Meng Changqing coughed twice, and quickly took out the pill and held it, "Go back." ”

Chu Mufeng had just arrived with the people, and saw them running back again.

Fortunately, when he went back, the speed slowed down, and Chu Mufeng drove his horse close to Meng Changqing, "Lord Meng, I will receive orders from the front of the palace to protect your safety, and please don't act alone, no matter where you go in the future, please let us know." ”

Meng Changqing resolutely admitted his mistake and promised that he would report to them wherever he went in the future.

"Lord Bai, I have to go to the county government on the fourth day of junior high school, so I'll tell you in advance."

When I returned to the camp, I saw that some of the pits had been dug more than half a meter deep.

Sure enough, the rice was not eaten in vain.

And after the permafrost is dug up, the soil below is easier to dig.

Half an hour later, the first group of holes was dug.

Meng Changqing took a tape measure to measure it, the hole was two meters deep, and they dug a staircase outside the box to facilitate access.

This is very good, even if the top is completely covered, there will be no suffocation problem.

"Yes, you guys did a great job." Meng Changqing praised the first group, "Go get firewood, bake this hole, and then go to the back and dig it." ”

Wang Xun originally had a lot of resistance to living in the pit, but now looking at the repaired pit, it doesn't seem so difficult to accept.

He also jumped down and felt it, and it was not as depressed as he thought.

Before dinner was ready, all the holes were dug and the tents were covered, and everyone had a temporary place to stay.

Of course, Meng Changqing is a person who is unwilling to wronged himself.

Although her Beishan County County Office is already a hole in the ground, she still made some improvements herself.

The surroundings were painted with mud mixed with plant ash, and a stove was placed in the corner and a flue was dug.

It is remarkable that her yamen is different from other caves.

Even the horses were settled.

Chu Mufeng took the Imperial Forest Army to build a horse shed, and with a dozen wooden stakes and a car board, it could also block some wind.

Meng Changqing's dinner was eaten in a pit.

It was covered with tent cloth, a thick curtain removed from the carriage hung at the top of the staircase, charcoal was burned in the stove, and wax was lit on the table.

The porridge is placed on the table, and finally there is no need to eat it in a hurry, and it will not be cold immediately if it is put away for the time being.

In the cave, the temperature should be about eight degrees at this time, and the big coat and padded jacket she was wearing could be taken off.

Meng Changqing held the porridge bowl in his left hand and planned to plate it with his right hand.

Calculate how much manpower and material resources were needed to build this wall.

Meng Changqing's abacus beads were so energetic that he didn't sleep long at all this night.

But the people slept peacefully, and today was the fullest day for a long time, and the warmest place to sleep.

After turning the day, the sky was slightly bright, and Meng Changqing came out of the hole.

She gave Zuo Datou a gong and told him to call the people up to dig the foundation of the wall.

From today onwards, the walls will be built day and night.

Meng Changqing's New Year's greetings were carried on her for three days, and finally on the fourth day of the new year, she took people to set off at three o'clock and went to Liangzhou City quickly.

After passing through two city gates in succession, when she stood in Liangzhou City, the clock just rang on the city wall.

Chu Mufeng stopped Meng Changqing, "Lord Meng, I asked Wang Xun to go to the post house to send a few letters to his family." ”

"Brother Wang, please."

Meng Changqing took Bafang, Chu Mufeng and the other two Imperial Forest Army to the palace directly.

The official at the gate of the mansion happened to be the one who received Meng Changqing last time, and hurriedly stepped forward to lead the horse, "Lord Meng, you came really early." ”

"Haven't the adults from the other prefectures arrived yet?" Meng Changqing took the opportunity to inquire.

"The two adults from Hongjia County and Quping County have arrived." The official beckoned the brother next to him, "Lead the horse to feed, and I'll take Master Meng in." ”

Meng Changqing: "There are two Laos. ”

"Your Excellency is gracious." This official probably knew that the prefect had an uncle and nephew relationship with her, and he was very talkative about her, "My lord, in order to spare today, I only returned to the house last night, and I should still have breakfast at this time, so I ask Lord Meng and other adults to wait together." ”

"That's as it should be."

As he spoke, he was taken outside a room.

"Your Excellency, please come in."

Meng Changqing pushed the door in, and there were two middle-aged people in official uniforms, sitting at the round table, holding a tea bowl in their hands, and they were both stunned when they saw her come in.

"Junior Meng Changqing, I have seen two adults." After she bowed, she took off the big padded jacket on her body, revealing the official uniform inside.

Her mother has already helped her change her official uniform, and this time she put it on just right.

"Oh! It's Lord Meng. One of the officials stood up first and walked towards Meng Changqing, "Since you went outside the city wall of my county yesterday, why don't you go into the city and sit?" ”

"You are the ...... of Hongjia County"

"Yes." Without waiting for Meng Changqing to finish speaking, this one said, "My surname is Hua, and I have had an old friendship with your father." ”

"Flower-sama." Meng Changqing saluted again.

The county magistrate of Quping County also walked next to Meng Changqing, and he touched his beard, "My surname is Zeng, and I don't have an old friend with your father, but I often hear about General Meng's affairs back then." ”

"Lord Zeng."

Zeng Jing smiled: "Don't stand, sit down and talk, and the two of you will also sit." ”

The two adults took her to the round table and sat down.

"I heard that Lord Hua said that you are young, but I don't know how old you are this year?"

"Fourteen this year."

"Oh, what month is your birthday?"

"Hey!" Without waiting for Meng Changqing to answer, someone entered the door with a lament. After this person entered the door, he pointed at Meng Changqing while untying his cloak, "This little Meng, I chased and shouted all the way, and you didn't say to wait for me." ”

Chasing her? The only one who traveled with her was the county official of Yangmen County.

"Lord Mao."

Mao Chunfang waved his hand, "You're welcome, which of you should quickly pour me a cup of hot tea." ”
