Volume II, Weapons Genealogy Chapter 101, The Beginning of a New Dynasty
"Boss, the carriage is set! When will it leave?" Cai Wu pulled the reins of the horse and parked a spacious carriage outside the city wall, the weather was very cool just after noon, and it was November again, and pedestrians in cotton clothes could be seen at night in Zhongzhou.
Liu Xiaoyi walked out of the city gate with deep dark circles under his eyes, carrying a burden on his back, he barely slept all night, there was an uninvited guest on the bed, and he was still talking in his dreams after drinking too much wine, the room was so big, how could he sleep.
In addition, before dawn, he went to participate in the enthronement ceremony, and the magnificent scene really opened the eyes of the roe deer Liu, and it took a lot of energy.
King Qin ascended the throne, turned into the Qin Emperor, changed the name of the country to Qin, from then on the Iron Dynasty will no longer exist, replaced by a new Qin Dynasty, although the actual controller is still the Liao family, but after the prince was seriously injured and paralyzed, Queen Xiao chose to take the prince back to the mountains and forests, and was never born.
From today onwards, the people will be exempted from paying taxes for one year, amnesty will be granted to the world, and the National Day will be three days, the atmosphere inside and outside the city will be peaceful, and the law will be reformulated to announce to the world, and the Qin Emperor will not only implement his political ideas in his fiefdom, but also face Kyushu.
As soon as the rebellious officials should be dealt with, the civilian clique led by Xue Juan was dealt a heavy blow, and the entire Xue family was uprooted by secret forces.
The disciples of the Xun family appeared in various official positions, and they were the arms of the Qin Emperor, helping the Qin Emperor to stabilize the situation that had not yet disappeared.
And the fourth prince Liao Shu actually became the crown prince, Emperor Qin has never wanted to monopolize the country in his heart, in his heart to put the people first, the four princes have always been the best candidates in his mind.
It lasted for four hours, and the enthronement ceremony was successfully completed, and everyone, including Emperor Qin, felt a little tired and wanted to end it quickly, but the law of the ancestors could not be changed, and the celebrities from near and far in Kyushu were staring at it.
Emperor Qin himself led his troops to fight, but he had no experience in these tedious steps, and he was dizzy by the shouts of the celebrants, and after walking down from the altar, he immediately returned to the palace to rest, and announced a three-day holiday, so that the hundred officials could have a good rest.
"Let's go now, do you have everything with you?" Liu Xiaoyi turned over and got on the horse, stabilized his mind, and suddenly felt a sinking behind him, and someone sat on the back of the horse.
Turning her head to look at a girl with a fleshy round face, wearing a brand-new long skirt and a short one, she looked young and cute, but she herself pouted a little unhappy.
"You get down for me, go to the carriage!"
"No! I'm not used to riding in a carriage, I'm tired and my back hurts!" Since she was a child, she traveled north and south with the spirit master of Hyozuka, and she was used to riding horses in tight night clothes, which was the first time that a girl had done this.
In every gesture, she didn't feel so comfortable, and the long skirt and short tie made her unable to stretch and make large movements, so she had to hug Liu Xiaoyi tightly and say nothing and let go.
Ma Shan carried a large bag of luggage, threw it on the base behind the carriage, and beckoned to Cai Wu: "Brother, everyone is together, let's go." ”
Meng Qiaoqiao didn't follow her master, this time her master disappeared overnight, and she didn't know what to do without taking her, Li Dao also followed with simple luggage, he was alone, but he was willing to wander the rivers and lakes like this.
The carriage was jammed, Cai Wu drove the carriage forward, and in the carriage sat Shangguan Baozi, who was driven off the horse by Liu Xiaoyi, happened to be accompanied by Meng Qiaoqiao along the way, and the two girls were also lonely.
"Brother Liu, just be so relieved to take the killer of the soldier's mound with you? Emperor Qin's side can't be sure of the other party's origin, I'm afraid it will be very involved. Li Wei is now more and more cautious, since the death of his best friend, he has become nervous, and he is worried all day long and does not know what to guard.
In last night's dream, Liu Xiaoyi heard a lot of news about this girl, she was adopted by the people in the Bingzuka since she was a child, and she was trained to be a ghost fox scout, but she was not born in the Bingzuka after all, what has accompanied her for more than ten years is those endless cynicism, which almost crushed her young heart.
This is the first time she came out on a mission, and she wanted to prove like those people that she was as good as everyone else, so she worked so hard, and tracked down Bai Yujing, but she didn't expect that King Qin was superior at that time, and she was also sealed by Zhen Yuanshan.
With the strength of the wine, she cried fiercely, Liu Xiaoyi was sad to hear it, and couldn't sleep, "I explained it last night, she is very safe, you look so thin and pitiful, I almost choked to death by food last night." ”
Although Li Dao believed in Liu Xiaoyi, he couldn't trust this person who attacked King Qin, and still paid attention to the movements in the carriage from time to time, but it was Meng Qiaoqiao who quickly became familiar with her.
"Is Hyozuka really as fun as you say? I think the Southern Wilderness is very desolate, how far further south do you have to go?"
"The last time I came here on horseback, it took half a year, our carriage is running slowly, maybe we can arrive next summer, the towns near Hyozuka like to eat barbecue, I'll invite you to eat over there!"
"No, let's take the rich man with us, you don't have to spend a penny, it's not easy for you to make money in Hyozuka, right?"
"They didn't give me money for food, saying that I was too young to take the money, and that the money I was given for the task was taken away by the brothers and sisters. Speaking of this, Shangguan Baozi's expression looked a little aggrieved, how could she not know that those senior brothers and sisters were taking advantage of her, but if she didn't do this, then even the family of Bingzuka would be gone.
Meng Qiaoqiao, such a restless lord, couldn't listen to such aggrieved words, so he poked his head out of the window and shouted: "Rich man Liu, you have to cover the little buns in the future, and when you see the people in the mound, you will beat them hard, it's too bullying!"
"You take care of yourself first! Don't look for trouble everywhere!" Liu Xiaoyi smiled dumbly, before leaving, there was an old eunuch who ordered someone to send a few boxes of gold and silver jewelry, as well as a larger number of silver tickets.
What the carriage carried was only the tip of the iceberg, and more of it was put in the Qiankun bag that Liu Xiaoyi carried, and Zhen Yuanshan also helped store some.
He had never seen such a large amount of money, and Liu Xiaoyi felt that the speed of running under the crotch was a lot slower, and when he mentioned the money, the whole person trembled.
The people who were in a very good mood rushed along the official road in Zhongzhou towards the direction of the Southern Wilderness, and after sleeping in the open for more than ten days, Meng Qiaoqiao finally couldn't help it and asked to find a town to rest and recuperate.
"I can't stand it anymore! I want to eat, change clothes, and take a bath!" Meng Qiaoqiao played with her temperament, shouting that she was unwilling to continue sleeping on the carriage, "There is a town in front of me, this is it!"
Liu Xiaoyi and the others were used to living in the wild, and then they remembered that there were two girls in the team, and then they suddenly realized that Cai Wu drove the carriage and changed the route to the town.
Small-scale gathering places like this were dotted between the castles, and at first they were often places where passing merchants gathered for the night, and over time small towns were formed.
The city wall is built of stone and wooden walls, which is several times lower than the city wall of Bai Yujing, and there is no plaque on it, so I don't know where it goes.
Ma Shan ran over first and asked the guards of the city, "May I ask where is the boundary here?"
When the soldier saw the other party wearing, he thought it was a foot coolie, so he didn't put it in his eyes, but fortunately Liu Xiaoyi rode a horse and followed, and the soldier saw this and smiled and hurriedly replied: "This place is called Huangfeng Village, it is the last town before the Southern Wilderness, welcome to Huangfeng Village!"
With a look of seeing the money, Ma Shan snorted coldly and shook his hand and walked in first, and the carriage slowly drove by, and the soldiers patronized and smiled flatteringly, forgetting to charge the handling fee for the crossing.
The small town is not big, just a north-south transparent main street, and the shops on both sides are relatively simple, which is very different from the imaginary prosperous scene, and even a little lonely.
But the two girls did not think so, and as soon as they entered the city, they slipped out of the carriage, and soon found the most luxurious inn here, and reserved all the upper rooms.
"How can you open a black shop, is it really okay to live here?" Liu Xiaoyi looked around, whether it was the shopkeeper or the shopkeeper, they were all reckless men who slapped their hearts and smiled.
"A few guest officers, are you going to be a tip or staying in a hotel?"
"Eat noodles!"
Moving all the luggage into the room, Liu Xiaoyi did not choose a separate room, but asked for the top suite, the two girls were in the innermost, and several of them lived in the outhouse.
For the sake of safety, the two girls were not allowed to order as much food as they wanted, so they simply had a bowl of noodles and a few side dishes.
Living in this kind of place, the chance of being robbed can be said to be 100%, Liu Xiaoyi is quite confident in this, the clothes he wears are incompatible with this place, and he also carries some heavy boxes from the carriage, no one will believe him if he has no money.
"When you're done eating, I'll take you out to buy some apps, and the rest of us will rest here first. ”
Liu Xiaoyi didn't raise his head, drank the bowl of wide noodles in a hurry, and immediately went upstairs to inspect the surrounding environment to check whether there was any mechanism in the black shop.
"Boss, where are we going to play?" Shangguan Baozi followed behind, like a little tail walking around with Liu Xiaoyi, watching Liu Xiaoyi block all the organs with wooden blocks, and praised them with admiration: "You are so bad, how can they come in?"
Cai Wu and Ma Shan checked the condition of the carriage in the stable in the backyard, the road was far away and inevitably bumpy, and the suitcase was very heavy, so it was not a good thing for the carriage to break down on the way.
"Old Ma, you said that we should go over there, will it be more fun than the capital? I haven't even seen Tianming Palace, and they will finish fighting. Cai Wu and the others did not follow Liu Xiaoyi into Tianming Palace that day, so they were naturally a little depressed.
"The world outside is difficult, and you can see it, the fierce aura of the shopkeeper can't be hidden!" Ma Shan is older and has a lot of experience in the rivers and lakes, so he can see at a glance that the shopkeeper is not a good person.
