Chapter 040: Walking the Donkey to Take Office
Chen Ao listened to Xuanning's words, was stunned, and laughed out loud randomly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info originally heard Xuanning say so scary, and he was a little worried. Now it seems that they are just spreading falsehoods, and no one has really been to Liangcheng!
Now it's a blue sky and a bright day, where are they so scary?
Over the past few days, Chen Ao has studied the area he is in, and learned that this place is located in Meizhou, which is the north of Guangnan East Road.
He flipped through a few books and roughly determined that the place he was in should be equivalent to the area of modern Guangdong. Naturally, this place is not as developed as modern times, and it is still a poor and remote land, which cannot be compared with the Central Plains at all.
Further south, the terrain is even more treacherous. It was a place where many exiled prisoners and degraded officials went, and the environment was worse and the law and order was poor. Meizhou is barely strong.
And this Liangcheng is in the territory of Meizhou! Liangcheng is not only beautiful with beautiful mountains and rivers, but also adjacent to official roads, and there are many caravans coming and going, and the economic development is quite considerable. How can such a place be a sinister place?
Thinking of this, Chen Ao's heart had already flown to Liangcheng, which was hundreds of miles away. When you get there, as a military and political officer in a place, don't you want the wind to be windy and rainy?
A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Ao's mouth, and he finally persuaded the people of Biqingzhai to feel at ease, so he rushed back to the hut and began to pack his bags.
He is not worried, he has stayed in Biqingzhai for so long, I am afraid that he has already delayed his time in office. In ancient times, traffic was blocked, especially in such remote places, which was even more difficult to walk. Therefore, it is not a big deal to delay time on the road.
He packed a few clothes. These are all made for him by some women in the cottage after beating Tian Feihu. Originally, Chen Ao could only wear other people's clothes, which was very ill-fitting. Now that I have clothes that fit, it's not so awkward.
There are also those forbidden books with illustrations of the Spring Palace, which are also a must-have. In this day and age, there is simply too little entertainment. Take these books with you, and think of it as a relief from boredom.
After cleaning up for a long time, I suddenly looked up and saw Xuan Ning hesitating, wandering in front of the door for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to walk in.
Chen Ao was stunned, packed up his baggage, put the official certificate in, and asked casually: "Big boss, what's the matter?"
Xuan Ning said angrily: "I said it a long time ago, when no one is around, don't call me a big boss, it sounds weird." Don't forget, I'm two years younger than you!"
Chen Ao couldn't help laughing when he saw her showing her daughter's charm for the first time, and suddenly reached out and scratched Xuanning's nose, and said, "Okay, you are younger than me, you are my little sister!
After speaking, both of them were stunned for a moment. They have never been so intimate, no big or small. This didn't seem to be anything in Chen Ao's eyes, but Xuan Ning's face was already flushed.
After a while, Xuan Ning picked up a folded piece of clothing and said, "Chen Ao, this is what I made for you with my own hands...... The craftsmanship is naturally not as good as the sisters-in-law in the cottage...... However, it is also my heart......"
Chen Ao's heart was moved. You must know that in this era, women are willing to make a dress for a man, what a big deal! Those women in the cottage have already married and had children, out of gratitude, make a few clothes for Chen Ao, that's fine.
But Xuanning is still a daughter who has not yet left the cabinet, and she makes a dress for Chen Ao with her own hands, which is a great affection!
Chen Ao couldn't help but hold Xuanning's soft and boneless little hand, and said a few words, wanting to say something touching. Who knew that at the critical moment, his mouth became stupid and he couldn't say a word.
However, Xuan Ning recovered from his shyness and smiled generously: "Okay, okay, let's clean it up!"
She said, taking the initiative to pack up for Chen Ao. The cottage had prepared enough dry food for him, and they were all packed into the baggage.
In the evening, everyone set up a banquet to practice for Chen Ao. Everyone dispersed happily, and Chen Ao naturally wanted to have a good rest. The next day, everyone had gathered in the open space to see Chen Ao off.
Xuanning brought a handsome black horse. The horse has a high head and neck, and it seems that he never bows his head. The horse's black mane is shiny and shiny, without a hint of variegation. Only on the four hooves, there is a tuft of snow-white hair. It was Tian Feihu's night owl stepping on the snow!
Xuan Ning said: "Chen Ao, it was you who led us to defeat the Tianma Gang. All this loot should be yours. This night owl is very handsome, and it is a thousand-mile horse like no other. You take it with you!"
She is well-informed, and she said that this horse is a thousand miles horse, so naturally she will not be wrong. Chen Ao had never seen Maxima before, so he couldn't help but look left and right.
The night owl stood tall in the snow, much taller than Chen Ao. Chen Ao stood on the ground, always feeling that the horse was despising him.
Chen Ao was not annoyed, and grinned: "I think it's better to forget it." I don't know how to ride a horse, so where can I get such a good horse? I think it's better to ride the donkey I brought. This horse...... As the saying goes, BMW deserves heroes. Since this horse belongs to me, then I will give it to you!"
When Xuan Ning heard this, his eyes lit up. "Really!" she had already loved the black horse, and went to the stable every day to groom it and feed it with her own hands. It's just that Chen Ao has made the greatest meritorious service, if he likes it, Xuanning naturally can't take this horse for himself.
Chen Ao had already seen her thoughts, anyway, he didn't know how to ride a horse, and he didn't have a particularly strong feeling for a horse, so it was better to give it to Xuanning, even if it was to make a beauty smile.
He suddenly took out the dagger from his arms, leaned close to Xuan Ning's ear, and whispered: "Actually, you have already given me the best gift! This dagger was thrown by yourself, and now it is mine!"
That night, Xuan Ning wanted to throw away the dagger, which could be regarded as a break with his past feelings. Who knew that Chen Ao snatched the dagger and put it away.
When Xuan Ning heard this, his pretty face turned red. When Chen Ao saw it, he couldn't help but be moved. This usually heroic woman is as strong as a woman, but as soon as she shows her daughter's demeanor, she is very moving.
Chen Ao couldn't help but put it next to her ear and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Ning'er, what I said that night was sincere. In my eyes, you are Bingqing Yujie! When I settle down, I'll come back to pick you up! When the time comes, I want you to be my girlfriend!"
As he spoke, he kissed Xuanning heavily on the cheek. There was a "pop" and almost everyone heard it.
Originally, when the others saw that they were going to whisper, they all consciously retreated. Who knew that Chen Ao was so bold that he actually kissed Xuanning in public. The crowd was amazed and delighted.
Seeing that everyone is showing strange and ambiguous smiles, I am afraid that this incident can make them laugh and talk for a long time. Xuan Ning was so anxious that his face was flushed, he stomped his feet hard, and when he saw Chen Ao's hippie smiling face, he scolded loudly: "Get out of here, get out of here, don't let me see you again!"
Chen Ao knew that she was shy and said angry words, so naturally she wouldn't take them seriously. He stepped onto the black donkey, looked back and beckoned, and said loudly, "Remember our agreement—"
The sound echoed through the valley, making Xuanning's heart shake as well.
Chen Ao laughed contentedly while thinking about Xuanning Xiangxiang's cheeks. He was not in a hurry, a hundred miles of road, less than fifty kilometers. Riding on a donkey, it arrived in one day.
However, he did not intend to enter the city after dark, so he slowed down and found a place to sleep overnight. In addition to Biqingzhai, there are no other villains on this path, and Chen Ao doesn't have to worry.
He was already fantasizing about what kind of place he was about to go. Chen Ao doesn't like crowded and fast big cities, nor does he like small villages with few facilities. This Liangcheng is a medium-sized city, the most desirable, it is really good!
Chen Ao had a sweet dream, slept all night, and the next morning, got up and walked for two hours, and saw the towering blue brick city wall of Liangcheng in the distance!
