Early in the morning, the master and servant woke up, and began to pack their luggage by the faint morning light, occasionally talking, and more often silent.

Fu Jingnian dug under the wooden ** for a long time, took out a narrow sandalwood box, squinted his eyes and stroked it carefully for a long time before he was behind him.

The yellow-faced girl was beside her, and she stuffed everything in the room that could fit into the large package made of cotton.

Fu Jingnian couldn't help laughing, took down the porcelain bowl that the yellow-faced girl was about to put in the package, and said, "Little girl, you don't need to take that thing, I'm afraid that there is no food outside, so I can't take the bowl to beg?"

As soon as the words fell, I saw the yellow-faced girl stuffing bottles and cans into the package bag again, and couldn't help but say: "What are you doing with this sauce, vinegar, oil and salt? Oh, there are four or five holes in this ** quilt, and you still stuff it in, do you want to cover it?" He blocked the yellow-faced girl who was stuffy and stuffed things into the package with the strength of milk, and sighed: "That's it, you go out, the more you help, the more you help." ”

The yellow-faced girl rolled her eyes and walked out with her mouth pouted.

Ready for the long journey, Fu Jingnian and the yellow-faced girl walked past the dilapidated hut one after the other, and the two of them glanced back at the small dilapidated grass hut at the same time, the little girl looked up at his chin and asked, "Young master, don't you wait for the meat balls to go together?"

Fu Jingnian took off a vigorous willow branch, hung it around his waist, and said with a smile: "Don't wait for the sixth brother, the sixth brother has other important matters, how can he keep playing with us everywhere." ”

The outer ring was wrapped in an iron wheel that crushed the wet mud ground, and a carriage set off slowly, carrying a gray donkey with thirteen iron hammers beside him, and drove towards the outside of the Nanban City.

The horse pulling the carriage is an extraordinary red date horse, with red hair like fire, high hooves and long ears, and a brave horse. The horse squinted his eyes and looked disdainfully at the gray donkey jumping out of his side, as if disgusted, it was not a close distance, and stepped on the hooves and walked away a few steps.

The gray donkey seemed to have been greatly insulted, pulling his neck and shouting at the red date horse, "ahh

The owner on the donkey's back blushed slightly, touched the neck of the donkey, and muttered in a low voice: "What a stupid donkey, don't scream, don't you see many people looking at us." ”

There are indeed a lot of farewell people on the side of the road today, from time to time there is a lady who hands over the hard-boiled eggs, and from time to time there is a red-faced little lady trotting to the carriage window, taking off her own sachet and throwing it in, and she doesn't say much, just smiled shyly, buried her head, covered her mouth and hurriedly walked away.

There are also aunts with black and red cheeks who wipe their eyes with dirty handkerchiefs and say something. "Xiao Nian, you dead and bad embryo who lacks morality, how good my daughter is, you don't want to marry her anyway, now it's okay, you go to those places where you eat people and don't spit out bones! I tell you, you have to take care of me, our daughter is still waiting for you to come back and marry." ”

Fu Jingnian, who was sitting on the wheel, had an extremely ugly face, and replied: "Auntie, when I was only nine years old, you started arranging family affairs, how can this thing not be done." ”

After a few scoldings with laughter, a drizzle suddenly fell in the sky, as if the rain was thinner than the line sprinkled on the people's bodies, a little cool, but no one left the people who saw them off, and the crowd was endless.

Tie Da Niu rode on the little donkey, constantly smiling and waving, and the face that was still a little childish and honest actually had a bit of heroism, and shouted loudly at the top of his voice: "Old and young masters, big sisters and aunts,

I don't know how to say anything, I just say a word, if I can't get a name for myself, if I can't hold the world's first beauty to be my Tie family's daughter-in-law, I won't come back!"

As soon as these words fell, it was like the storyteller taking pictures of the sound wood that opened the play, and like a bloody human head smashing into the dust, the people on the side of the road shouted in unison, and Fu Jingnian in the carriage couldn't help laughing.

"This kid, really"

The highest restaurant in Nanban City, the roof of the Xiangxiang Building is all paved with warm wool blankets, there are five or six people dressed differently, lazily lying on the roof, there is a fat man who is like a meat ball, the fat is several layers thick, and the fat man dressed as a rich man squinted his eyes, looked at the carriage on the street in a daze, and muttered in a low voice: "Xiao Nian, go to Chang'an, be careful, if you have an accident, my brother really has no hope." ”

Behind the fat man, a strangely dressed man wearing a cloak, a cloak and clogs said in a hoarse voice: "Your Highness, do you need me to select ten good men from the shadow camp to secretly protect the Nine Emperors?"

The fat man smiled and said, "Why does the ninth brother need you and me to protect him, let's not make trouble for him, it's very good, he has a sense of proportion in his heart." ”

"Your Highness is right, although the old minister has only seen the Nine Emperor Princes a few times, he can still see that the Nine Emperor Princes' temperament is by no means comparable to ordinary people, our group of old guys, don't make trouble for him, it's not bad. Wei Nian, who was wearing a sheepskin jacket and inserted his hands into his cuffs, said with a smile.

"Oh? His Royal Highness boasted about the Nine Emperors so highly, the old minister was really a little interested, but he wanted to see what kind of ** person the Nine Emperors were, and he could have such praise. The strangely dressed man chuckled.

The rest of the people on the roof also looked very interested, Fu Hu'er smiled slightly, did not speak, lightly sipped the tea placed on the table, and watched the carriage and donkey gradually leave Nanban City

Out of the city, the donkey "ahhhh

The carriage walked for a while, Fu Jingnian looked at the sky and the earth was far away, thousands of rivers and mountains, white clouds were long, and the clear water was far away, and his mood was comfortable and bright.

After passing through a valley, you will reach the official road.

The official road of the Southern Barbarians is quite neat, and there is a post station every thirty miles.

Fu Jingnian and others walked along the official road and marched towards Chang'an City.

By noon, there were more and more people on the official road, in groups of three or five, almost all of whom were lifting people who went to Chang'an to catch the exam. Most of them are children of rich families, either fat horses and light furs, or golden wheel floats, and there are many scholars and servants around them.

The wheels were rustling, the hooves were sounding, and everyone laughed and passed by the iron bull, and saw that his face was simple and simple, with green clothes and cloth shoes, patches scattered, riding a thin gray donkey, all of them laughed with accusation, and were extremely disdainful.
