Chapter 136: Splendid Yangzhou (I)

At the beginning of the sun, Ye Mu walked in front of everyone, and he had already walked out of the bamboo forest, beside him were Fu Junwu and his two daughters, Wu Ming, Xu Ziling, and Song Shuang, Song Yuzhi, and Hou Xibai of the Song family. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Behind him, there were hundreds of people in the wind and rain tower and more than a dozen people from Song Valve.

Out of the woods, there is a horse station of the Bamboo Flower Gang next to it, and the horses are pulled out of the horse station of the Bamboo Flower Gang, there are only about a dozen horses, and Xu Ziling takes on the steward and the like, and he comes to divide the horses.

There were too many people, and it was impossible for everyone to get it, so in the end, one horse was given to each of the big men present, which was considered some small privilege, and no one cared, and the rest of the people had no horses, so they had to continue to drive with their feet.

The road is a road, it is very strong by the wheels, the weeds on the road are very tough, in the past few days, it has been crushed and trampled far more than usual, although it is a little decadent, the blades of grass are trampled messily, but still raise the broken head, waving towards the sun.

The crowd did not have the heart to pity the tenacious weeds, let alone be moved by their spirits, and the horses' hooves and men's feet were as merciless as ever, and they could not be more ruthless.

No one is going to take these humble grasses seriously.

"The first test for you to join the Wind and Rain Building was to hike back to Yangzhou. ”

Xu Ziling looked at the person on the horse, and then looked at the group of subordinates who were looking at him pitifully on the ground, his face condensed into Sichuan characters, and finally squeezed out a somewhat strange smile and said.

Those subordinates seemed to be reluctantly accepting this statement, and no longer looked at Xu Ziling, and walked with their heads down.

Ye Mu and the others pretended not to see it, and rode in front, but deliberately slowed down the speed of the horse, reduced the whip, and trotted all the way.

Yangzhou City is not far away.

In the sound of horses' hooves and neat running, an hour later, Yangzhou City arrived.

......

Yangzhou since Yang Guang was still the king of Jin, after settling here, it is prosperous day by day, many resources from the north were brought to the south by him, and while building Yangzhou City, the influence gradually radiated to the entire south, driving the economic, political and cultural development of the south.

To a certain extent, Yangzhou can be regarded as the largest city in the south, and only Chang'an and Luoyang can be compared with it in terms of population, city size and importance.

There are military horses stationed outside the city to guard the safety of the city, and those garrisons are also military training sites, in the Yangzhou area, all the soldiers must pass the test in these military training sites before they are recognized by the Chinese garrison here, and they are qualified soldiers.

Today's city, after repeated expansion, Huaxia intends to expand the population, the population has been one million, many people enter and exit from the city gate every day, like the flowing water of the carriage procession, so that the city gate seems to be a little overwhelmed.

Ye Mu and the others entered the city after a long while, and after entering the city, they looked back at the line outside the city gate and lined up several miles away.

There are many more soldiers downstairs at the city gate than before, the registered pedestrians and the registered carriages have been separated, the people have sidewalks, the cars have roadways, and they are divided in an orderly manner, and the inspection speed of entering the city is very fast, and the long queue goes very fast, but the line is too long, and there is a tendency to keep lengthening, and the city gate seems too small after all.

After entering the city gate, Xu Ziling left with more than 100 people to settle those newcomers.

If they are all old rivers and lakes, Xu Ziling naturally doesn't have to bother so much, many of them are actually half-grown children, with low martial arts skills, and basically no survival experience, they used to follow their parents and brothers, but now they follow Xu Ziling, Xu Ziling has to take good care of them.

"Several, I'll go first. ”

Xu Ziling bowed his hand to everyone and said goodbye, and then directly took the people to the place that had been demarcated before.

Xu Ziling left, and naturally Ye Mu came to entertain the guests.

"There are many beautiful scenery in Yangzhou, and it is not early today, so I will receive you for dinner and rest first, and then take you to play tomorrow. ”

Pedestrians on the street came and went, and when they saw Ye Mu's group of people, there were people who were not in a hurry to be busy, so they stopped for a while, their eyes fell on the group, and after a while, they looked away and went to do their own thing.

It is normal for some people to appear in Yangzhou from time to time, and most people have become accustomed to this.

The reason why some people still go to see it is that they have become accustomed to watching for a while while while busy and relaxing.

After entering the city, Song Yuzhi and these women were unwilling to ride on horseback anymore, so they threw their horses at the inn at the city gate, and even took Ye Mu, Hou Xibai, and Song Shuang to give up their horses and follow on foot.

Ye Mu told the guy at the inn where the horses were stored that the horses would be taken over by the city guards when the time came, and then they would be sent to where the horses should go.

On the stone street, the sound of gurgling wheels sounded from time to time, and the woman's voice continued to speak, Ye Mu, Song Shuang, and Hou Xibai walked slowly behind the three women, and the rest of Song Valve's people followed behind the three of them.

The group just walked while shopping, enjoying the street scenery along the way.

"Brother Hou is very good at painting beauties, I wonder if the street scene of Yangzhou can be lucky enough to fall on Brother Hou's drawing paper?"

Ye Mu said as he walked.

After Hou Xibai entered Yangzhou, he was surprised when he saw the eaves and arches towering to the sky, the pavilions and pavilions were exquisite and chic, and there were many shops and shops.

He has been to Yangzhou, there are many beautiful women in Yangzhou, he often came here to paint beauties a few years ago, Yangzhou at that time was definitely not like this, where there are so many people, and where there are so many shops on the street.

And looking at those shops, all of them are coming and going, it is obvious that business is very good.

"This time I came to Yangzhou, and it was worth the trip to see such a grand scene in the world. ”

Hou Xibai, a noble son, thought in his heart, the folding fan in his hand shook slightly, and he started his signature move, and when he heard Ye Mu's words, he suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment, and the joy on his face flew up, and he said freely:

"When a picture like this is widely circulated on paper, everyone in the world can see it. ”

"It's hard to imagine that there is such a prosperous city in the world. Hou Xibai's eyes fell on a building called "Qionglou Yuyu" in front of him, and his eyes showed surprise.

......

Song Shuang smiled, stroked the beard that still didn't have a long beard, smiled happily, and looked at the world kindly, Ye Mu and Hou Xibai were juniors in his eyes, they were the best of the younger generation, the old people didn't talk to the young people, but they could feel the excitement of the young people.

Whether it was the conversation and laughter between his own niece and the two equally wonderful women, or the light exchange of young people next to him.

The shouting on the street has never stopped, and the shouting is so exciting, it is the feeling of youth.
