Chapter 512 News from Hometown

Li Chongyuan's reaction was really a bit big.

This made Xiangsi, Xingba, or Li Chongzhen look at Li Chongyuan one after another, wondering why Li Chongyuan reacted so strongly when he heard the name of Jizhou.

and.

They also saw a rare expression on Li Chongyuan's face.

It's melancholy, and it's also an expression of joy and longing.

Also truthfully.

Nostalgia, nostalgia.

In this world, Li Chongyuan never forgot his hometown in his previous life, not to mention that Li Chongyuan was from the south in his previous life.

After coming to this world, he went to Chang'an, which belongs to the north.

Whether it is food, or eating habits, or many things, there are huge differences.

Let's talk about food first.

As a southerner, Li Chongyuan remembers that when he left his hometown for the first time to study in the capital, because he didn’t know there were several cafeterias in the school, he ate pasta every day for a month.

During that month, even though Li Chongyuan ate a lot every day, he was still so hungry that he lost weight directly from 130 jin to [-] jin.

It is the same for southerners to eat pasta, or northerners to eat rice.

No matter how much you eat, you will feel hungry.

As for the reason, it is estimated that it has a lot to do with eating habits.

And after Li Chongyuan came to this world.

Although I also eat rice, most of my time in Lizhuang is millet.

With rice, there are still some differences.

In addition to the huge difference in eating, there are also very big differences in other things.

Fortunately, Li Chongyuan's adaptability is much stronger at this time, otherwise, according to Li Chongyuan in his previous life, he probably won't survive two episodes.

Li Chongyuan's reaction made the two strangers feel a little unbelievable.

However, although the two were a little surprised, they still responded truthfully, "Uncle Li, our master's name is Jin Yong, and the Jizhou that Uncle Li asked about is exactly the Jizhou on the Jiangnan West Road."

Li Chongyuan, who got the response, looked at the two of them overjoyed, his face was blood red, as if he had drunk alcohol.

Li Chongyuan's excited expression made everyone even more puzzled.

"Cousin, what's the matter with you?" Li Chongzhen asked in confusion.

He really wanted to know what happened to his cousin, why he acted so excited when he heard the name of Jizhou, or when he was confirmed.

Li Chongyuan also knew at this time that he was too excited, so he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart and the excitement on his face.

Li Chongyuan misses Jizhou too much.

Even though Jizhou is a state, Li Chongyuan is still thinking about it, "It's nothing, nothing, it's just that I haven't been to the south, so when I hear the name of a place in the south, I look forward to it."

Everyone was very puzzled.

Li Chongyuan's explanation makes sense on the surface, but it doesn't make sense when you think about it deeply.

Li Chongyuan didn't care what Li Chongzhen and the others were thinking, but recalled who Jin Yong was from what the two said.

Immediately, Li Chongyuan asked the two of them: "Who is the Jin Yong you two are talking about? I don't seem to know this person."

The name of Jin Yong is really not in Li Chongyuan's head.

There is such a person surnamed Jin.

The two people in front of them said that they came to Xixiang to protect Li Chongyuan under the instruction of their master Jin Yong, which made it difficult for Li Chongyuan to understand.

Do you need protection yourself?

Although there are not many people, but with Tie Leizi in hand and Xingbatian guarding him with firecrackers, whoever dares to come close to assassinate Li Chongyuan.

Unless he wants to court death.

After hearing what Li Chongyuan said, the two glanced at each other, and felt that Li Chongyuan's question was a bit abrupt.

The two originally thought that Li Chongyuan should know who his master is.

But at this time, Li Chongyuan looked at them with doubts on his face, which made the set of rhetoric they had prepared in their hearts suddenly disappear.

However, although the two were puzzled, they still cupped their hands and replied: "Return to County Uncle Li, my master Jin Yong is a servant in the palace."

"The servant in the palace? Which servant in the palace?" After Li Chongyuan heard the words, his mind became even more confused.

The only servant in the palace he knew with the surname Jin was Lao Jin who had been with Li Yuan all the year round, the servant Jin. As for whether there were any other surnamed Jin in the palace, he really didn't know.

The two said that their master's name was Jin Yong, and he was also a servant in the palace.

According to Li Chongyuan's preconceived ideas, this is simply impossible.

Who is the servant, he is a rootless person, even if he has children before entering the palace, he will usually be taken to Chang'an to live.

However, when Li Chongyuan recalled that Jin’s servant was from Jizhou, his mind suddenly brightened, “Is your master Jin’s servant? I really didn’t know that Jin’s servant was called Jin Yong. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” what."

It was only during this time that Li Chongyuan remembered that the servant Jin also came from Taihe, Jizhou.

Otherwise, Li Chongyuan would have to go all the way to the dark.

"Go back to County Uncle Li, that's the tutor." The two of them lightened up when they saw that Li Chongyuan finally knew who their master was.

After confirming again.

The identities of the two have also been confirmed.

And the two even took out a letter and handed it over to Li Chongyuan for re-verification.

After Li Chongyuan read the letter, Li Chongyuan understood everything.

'It turned out that Jin's servant was called Jin Yong, and he never said what his name was before.It seems that I forgot to ask, it's all my fault, and I almost made a big oolong.However, why did Lao Jin send two apprentices to protect me?Could it be that the old man knew that I had caused trouble in Xixiang?Afraid that someone will harm me? At this time, Li Chongyuan was full of slander.

After much deliberation, Li Chongyuan could only think of such a result.

And what he thought was exactly Li Yuan's original intention.

Li Chongyuan invited the two of them to sit down, and asked happily: "You two came from Jizhou to Xixiang to guard me specially under your master's instruction. Chang'an, you will return to Chang'an with me in a few days, and then you will be able to reunite with your master."

"Uncle Li, I have been in Jizhou all year round, and I have not seen my teacher for many years, and I am very concerned about it. If we can take this opportunity to honor our filial piety in front of our teacher, it will be a fulfillment of a wish in our hearts. Yes." The two replied.

After Li Chongyuan heard the words, he also knew that it was impossible for him to leave Chang'an for a long time.

In this era, it is very difficult to go back to my hometown, and Jizhou is two thousand miles away from Chang'an.

Even if you walk a straight line and travel fifty miles a day, it will take you about a month.

If Jin's servant really wants to go back to Jizhou, let alone a month, it is estimated that he may not be able to arrive in Jizhou in two months.

This is still the time calculated by walking.

If you go by water, the time will be so long that it cannot be estimated, ranging from two months to three to five months.

Furthermore, Jin's servant is still Li Yuan's servant, and it is even more difficult to leave Miyagi and return to his hometown.

I haven't seen you for many years, probably ten years at least.

Given that the two are in their forties, this time cannot be too short.

Li Chongyuan politely poured a bowl of tea to the two of them and said: "It's been a hard journey, drink some water first. It may take a few more days to go back to Chang'an. You should stay here for a few days. Xiang Si, hurry up and make arrangements. Don't worry about it." Let people say that I, Li Chongyuan, don't understand etiquette."

"Uncle Li is being polite. The two of us came here to be guards, so it is not worth being that Uncle Li is so polite to us and my brothers and sisters." Seeing Li Chongyuan being so polite, the two of them were even more moved.

Even if their master is a golden servant, their status and status are considered good.

But in front of Li Chongyuan, the honorable man, the two of them can only be ordinary people.

A nobleman is so polite to a commoner, if it is said, not many people will believe it, and it is impossible to become a fact.

But this is the case.

What's more, Li Chongyuan also said that he and the two people in front of him are from the same hometown, so they will naturally have a lot of intimacy, "It's rare to come here once, not to mention that you are going to be my guards, and I will treat you well, so you can do your duty Well."

Li Chongyuan was very polite, or even a little too kind.

This made the two of them a little uncomfortable and seemed very restrained.

However, the restraint of the two of them, it is estimated that after a few days, they will be as good as they are, and they will appear very casual when interacting with Li Chongyuan.

The restraint of the two is seen in Li Chongyuan's eyes.

And Li Chongyuan, in order to eliminate the sense of restraint between the two, began to inquire about Jizhou from the two, "By the way, I forgot to ask your names, how about introducing them?"

After a long time, Li Chongyuan didn't ask the other party's name.

This is also his fault Li Chongyuan.

As soon as I heard that the two were from Jizhou, I became too excited, and I forgot to ask their names all the time, and I didn't even ask them about their situation in detail.

"Back to Uncle Li, my name is Tang Li, from the family of Taihe, and he is my younger brother Liu Xiang, from the family of Yongxin." The man named Tang Li quickly responded to Li Chongyuan's question.

And Li Chongyuan at this time.

After hearing Tang Li's response, he stared directly at the person named Liu Xiang.

Yongxin Renshi.

That was Li Chongyuan's hometown in his previous life.

That is the place that Li Chongyuan has always wanted to go back and have a look.

Yongxin, built more than 800 years ago, was called Chuwei Wutou in ancient times.

Surrounded by mountains and water, it is closely connected with Jinggang Mountain and Luoxiao Mountain.

The unique ancient language and the unique geographical location have created the unique characteristics of Yongxin people, and even created the spirit of hard work and hard work of Yongxin people.

At this time, Li Chongyuan, upon hearing that Liu Xiang was from Yongxin, directly filtered out Tang Li, looked at Liu Xiang and asked anxiously, "Are you really from Yongxin? How is Yongxin at this time?"

"Returning to Uncle Li, I am indeed from Yongxin. I don't know how to answer what Uncle Li asked. Good or bad, if compared with other places, it is naturally good. If you want to compare it with Luling or other prefectures, it will be worse." Liu Xiang replied bluntly without any doubt when he heard Li Chongyuan's question.

After hearing this, Li Chongyuan also knew that he was a little too hasty in asking, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "How many people does Yongxin have now? As far as I know, Heshui passes through the county, and Yongxin is surrounded by mountains on all sides. As long as it rains continuously for several days, it will inevitably lead to continuous floods, do the officials in Yongxin think of a way to restore Heshui?"

"I don't want to make unreasonable comments on the matter of officials. As Li Xianbo said, as long as there is a heavy rain, the water will rise. Just two years ago, a heavy rain almost flooded the county. Fortunately, the people He voluntarily fought against the flood, and got through it safely. The restoration of Heshui is not a one-time event, and it needs years of repairs before it can be cured." Listening to Li Chongyuan's question, Liu Xiang felt that this young nobleman in front of him, how could he do it? will know things that are eternally new.

Only those who were born and grew up in Yongxin can feel the situation of Yongxin.

When it rains heavily, the water will rise. People in Yongxin must know this.

Li Chongyuan also knew what Liu Xiang meant after hearing the words.

As an ordinary citizen, it is really difficult for him to intervene in the affairs of officials. Even if he has a master who is a servant in the palace, he is not qualified to intervene in the affairs of officials.

Subsequently.

Li Chongyuan asked Liu Xiang about other things about Yongxin.

For example, how are the mountains and forests, how are the crops and so on.

There is also about the life of the people, and how many villages there are in Yongxin.

Liu Xiangdao truthfully responded to Li Chongyuan's questions one by one.

but.

What Li Chongyuan asked was that whether Li Chongzhen or Tang Li who was sitting beside him was full of doubts.

Regarding Li Chongyuan, they only asked Liu Xiang about Yongxin's situation, but they never asked Tang Li about Taihe.

Very problematic.

However, when Li Chongyuan saw everyone's doubts, he also knew that he was too obvious, so he quickly turned to Tang Li and began to ask about Taihe.

After going like this, everyone's doubts began to be released.

After Li Chongyuan asked Liu Xiang.

Li Chongyuan also began to know the general situation of his hometown in his previous life.

Neither good nor bad.

As usual with other places, there is not much difference.

The only difference is that there are mostly bandits, and the bandits who occupy the mountain as king have become more and more rampant in recent years, often coming down the mountain to rob the people.

This also caused headaches for the local officials. Even the state government in Luling sent soldiers and horses to suppress the bandits many times, but it was futile.

Who put Yongxin in a place surrounded by mountains.

To the west is the Luoxiao Mountains, and to the south is the Jinggang Mountains.

To the east is a large mountain in the direction of Luling.

Further north, it is the Heshan area, which is also close to Anfu County.

and so.

There are many bandits in the land of Yongxin, which has existed since ancient times.

Bandits, in the current state of Tang, can be said to be everywhere.

And even more so in the South.

There are many plains in the north, even if you want to be a bandit, you basically have no place to run.

But the South is different.

If you can't win, get into the mountains, even if you have all kinds of abilities, don't even try to catch them.

and.

As far as Li Chongyuan knew, there were countless water bandits on Pengze Lake where the Jiangnan West Road was located.

In the area of ​​Lingnan Road, there are also countless bandits.

There may be bandits on every hill, and the number of them varies.

There are dozens of people, dozens of people, and hundreds of people.
