End of October.

On the rugged mountain road, Sun Meng rode a war horse, and behind him were seventeen or eighteen carriages and ox carts full of money and goods.

Han Anniang, Xia Zhiqing, Yi Shiyan, Song Min, and Xiaoling sat in two carriages and followed the convoy.

They lifted the curtain from time to time, looked at the scenery outside, with a smile in their eyes, and were about to see Chen Mo.

After they received Chen Mo's letter, they packed up their things as soon as possible, rushed over from Pingting County, and after entering Yuzhou, they sent a letter to Chen Mo, and when they arrived in Tianshui Town, three hundred soldiers led by Sun Meng received them.

Now in the land of three states, Qingzhou has the smallest population and the least number of troops, and it is no longer suitable to be the headquarters in Pingting County, Chen Mo needs his family and talents to move to Yuzhou, Yuzhou is mountainous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is safer.

Geng Songfu still stayed in Pingting County, Chen Mo asked Li Yunzhang and Zhao Daoxian to be in charge of assisting, and Chen Mo also promoted Geng Songfu to the prefect of Qingzhou, Zhao Daoxian was appointed as the county commander of Qingting County, and Li Yunzhang was the commander of the local garrison with the rank of captain.

Chen Mo has the right to act cheaply, and the military and political affairs of the three states are in his hands, so it is completely okay to appoint someone else as the prefect of Qingzhou.

Han Anniang looked at the scenery outside the carriage, feeling a little cramped and expectant, this is her first time to go out, since she was a child, she has never even been out of Pingting County, but now she has traveled thousands of miles and crossed states to come here, which feels a little unreal.

Since Chen Mo appointed Geng Songfu as the county governor of Pingting County, he separated his personal account from the public account and handed it over to Han Anniang to manage.

The main source of income comes from the perfume factory, textile factory, and Fukuzawa Building in Fukuzawa Village.

The lime factory, coal plant, etc., were all included in the inner treasury of the yamen, which was managed by Wang Ping, who was responsible for distributing the salaries of the yamen officials and the expenses for maintaining the basic operation of the two counties.

As for the army, it was independent from the beginning, and all expenses, including rewards and expenditures of the various arms workshops, went through the internal accounts of the army, and the same was true for the future, so that the accounts would not appear to be confused.

Even the army is the army, and its purity must be guaranteed, and nothing else is left to worry about except for fighting a war.

The money currently used by the army is all from the seizure of Lu Yonggang, Yang Minggui, and Yuzhou Mansion.

By the way, there is also Liang Xue's dowry.

In fact, according to Chen Mo's current relationship with Liang Xue, these dowries should belong to Chen Mo's private own.

But now it is in need of development, and money is needed everywhere, so it can only be used.

In the afternoon, when it was almost dark.

The convoy arrived at the east gate of Longmen County.

After learning that they had entered Yuzhou a few days ago, Chen Mo asked people to clean up the inside and outside of the yamen's backyard.

The backyard of the yamen is big enough to live in Han Anniang and others, which is not a problem at all.

As for the maids who served, they were all originally serving Liang Song, so Chen Mo took them directly and used them.

Outside the yamen, Chen Mo waited outside early with a group of subordinates.

Seeing Han Anniang getting down from the carriage, Chen Mo immediately greeted him, personally helped Han Anniang get down from the carriage, and called, "Anniang." ”

In addition to sometimes seeking stimulation and calling Han Anniang's sister-in-law, Chen Mo usually calls her Anniang.

I haven't seen each other for more than half a year, and when we see each other again, Han Anniang's eyes can't help but redden, even if she is thin-skinned and embarrassed, she is still in front of everyone at this moment, and generally hugs Chen Mo: "Erlang, the slave family is good. Miss you. ”

Chen Mo gently patted her back and comforted her softly.

"Husband."

"Mo Lang."

"Brother Mo."

"Uncle."

At this time, Yi Shiyan, Xia Zhiqing and others also got down from the carriage and greeted Chen Mo warmly, among which Yi Shiyan would have pounced if she hadn't seen Han Anniang holding Chen Mo at the moment.

It's not easy to say much outside the yamen, Chen Mo asked his subordinates to come forward to get the package, and then Chen Mo took Han Anniang and her daughters into the backyard of the yamen from the side door next to them.

As the usual place of residence of the governor of a state, Liang Song is the son-in-law of the Liang family, and the entire backyard is much larger than the backyard of the Yamen of Pingting County, and the overall layout highlights a fresh and elegant.

The flower beds and rockeries in the courtyard are all from the hands of famous artists, and the scenery is beautiful.

Han Anniang is a rural village woman, and she thought that the Yi family courtyard in Pingting County was good enough, but when she entered here at this moment, she was still in a trance.

Feeling Han Anniang's apprehension, Chen Mo held her jade hand and said, "In the future, this will be our home, you will live in this courtyard, here is the master bedroom, I usually live, Min'er, just live in the next room." ”

"Hmm."

Feeling Chen Mo's attention, Han Anniang felt ashamed, and wanted to break free, but she was reluctant.

"Husband, what about me." Yi Shiyan said.

"It's been prepared for Xiaolu a long time ago, of course, if Xiaolu and An Niang don't mind, it doesn't matter if you live together." Chen Mo pinched Yi Shiyan's little face and said with a smile.

"Jiro." Han Anniang didn't understand Chen Mo's mind yet, and her head was about to be buried in the fruits.

Xia Zhiqing naturally lives with her sister Xia Zhining.

Liang Xue was empty all of a sudden, and she was suddenly a little at a loss.

Han Anniang noticed Liang Xue, she read the letter written by Chen Mo to her, pulled her hand out of Chen Mo's hand, walked towards Liang Xue, with a smile on her face, and said, "This is Liang Xue's sister, right?" ”

After speaking, he looked at Liang Xue as if he was looking at his daughter-in-law.

To tell the truth, Han Anniang doesn't like Liang Xue.

It's so flattering.

Especially the gaze, like the hook, to draw all the attention of the man.

The clothes he wore were also gaudy and too showy.

That feeling, there is a kind of Qinglou woman's taste, but the more high-end kind.

But what Han Anniang didn't know was that since Liang Song said that Liang Xue's dress was more glamorous, Liang Xue was more inward, and it was Chen Mo who asked her to dress like this, saying that she looked so good.

On the contrary, Liang Xue does not go out of the gate, and wears it for herself, of course, how good it looks.

It's just that Chen Mo doesn't have time now, and it's not good to be too greedy for enjoyment, otherwise he would have to give Liang Xue the hip skirt, and by the way, he would also study the black silk and high heels, and treat his eyes and second brother well.

"Sister Han is good, the concubine Liang Xue is the master. Hou Ye Xinna's concubine. Liang Xue bowed and quickly changed her name, and her voice was also charming and seductive.

Liang Xue is now under the eaves, so she has to lower her posture, and in fact she is indeed Chen Mo's concubine, she has signed the documents and stamped the prefect's seal.

"Sister Liang Xue is so beautiful." Han Anniang held Liang Xue's little hand and said, "Since you have entered the Chen family, you will be a family from now on, serving Erlang together." ”

Liang Xue blushed and nodded.

While the girls knew each other, Chen Mo instructed his subordinates to move all the luggage in.

At this time, Yi Shiyan exclaimed, and hurriedly said: "Husband, how can there be a pool in this backyard?" I've brought all the tail-eyed spirit fish with me and put them in a special tank, and I'll have to release them or they'll die. ”

In order to bring these tail-eyed spirit fish to Yuzhou safely, Yi Shiyan took care of all the way, feeding, changing water, etc., and did not dare to slack off.

"In the back."

"I'll take you with me."

As soon as Chen Mo spoke, Liang Xue's voice sounded, and he offered to take Yi Shiyan with him.

Liang Xue also has her own little Jiujiu, seeing that there are a few people she doesn't know living in the backyard, and she will have to get along day and night in the future, so she naturally wants to find someone who is easy to get along with, and she will get acquainted with her first.

Later, you can also get to know other people through people you know well.

Yi Shiyan looked at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo nodded at her: "Xiaolu, let Xue'er accompany you." ”

"Thank you." Yi Shiyan said to Liang Xuedao.

Initially looking good, Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

After the girls all settled down, Chen Mo took the blood ginseng seized before and gave one to Han Anniang, Yi Shiyan, and Xia Zhiqing.

……

Night is falling.

Golden Summer.

Jinxia is a kingdom composed of more than a dozen tribes in the northern grassland, because of the language barrier, the Great Song Dynasty called it the Northern Wilderness Country, and the people of the Northern Wilderness Country were called barbarians.

As for why it is called this, it is because after the Great Song Dynasty through the study of Jinxia, the people who developed this country were simple-minded and only paid attention to brute force.

When Emperor Taizu first established the Great Song Dynasty, the overall national strength was not as good as Jin Xia, and the reason why Jin Xia was able to drive out was that Emperor Taizu broke through to a single product is a point, and the key is that Emperor Taizu used a very common strategy every time to defeat Jin Xia with a small number of soldiers and horses.

There is also the fact that Jin Xia does not know how to use weapons.

At the beginning of the war, there were catapults, bed crossbows on the side of the Great Song Dynasty, and even in the face of the cavalry of Jinxia, they also developed a special formation to deal with cavalry on flat ground.

And Jin Xia can only simply ride and chop and ride, and some large equipment does not know how to use and build.

It is for this reason that Da Song despises Jin Xia very much.

But man is a very complex, very cunning animal.

It will change, and it will learn lessons.

Unbeknownst to the Great Song Dynasty, after the defeat of Jinxia four hundred years ago, the kingdom carried out several seizures of power and changes, and finally the Tuoba tribe won the final victory.

All tribes revere the leader of Tuoba as a khan.

At that time, the Jinxia Khan proposed to learn from the Great Song Dynasty, and sent a large number of people from the clan to study in the Great Song Dynasty, and even married and had children with the local people.

This is a very long process, but it has made the whole Golden Summer change dramatically.

They learned the Great Song method of making armor, learned the art of medicine, and no longer used witch doctors to pray for healing.

They brought back a large number of military books and opened martial arts halls in various tribes.

Even, the nobles of various tribes, as well as the generals, learned the language of the Great Song Dynasty and knew the living habits, customs, and hobbies of the people of the Great Song Dynasty.

When the Great Song Dynasty began to decline, Jin Xia, in order to have no worries, began to crusade against Gao Liao in the year of Xuanhe, but it was not smooth at first.

On the contrary, it led to internal conflicts in Jinxia, and some tribes were dissatisfied with the Tuoba tribe for hundreds of years, and when most of Jinxia's troops went to crusade against Gaoliao, there was a mutiny.

In desperation, the Jinxia Khan could only put aside the crusade against Gao Liao for the time being and began to quell the civil strife.
