Traveling through the Three Kingdoms: She brings unlimited supplies to build infrastructure

Chapter 74
As Gongsun Yan fainted from grief, the love drama thirty miles outside the city temporarily came to an end.

Zhao Yun carried Gongsun Yan into the parallel car, and then carried Gongsun Cheng out to meet his uncle.

Gongsun Cheng held Zhao Yun's neck tightly and refused to let go.

When he was in the car, the unconscious sister once opened her eyes and told him that he was never allowed to leave the arms of brother Zilong under any circumstances. There was a strange and bad uncle outside.

After the instructions, he nodded seriously.

His sister naturally closed her eyes and leaned against the car's back pocket, as if falling asleep.

Gongsun Cheng is a very obedient child.

At this time, despite being coaxed by the uncle opposite him, he still held Zhao Yun tightly.

After saying all her good things, Gongsun Jing put down her raised hand in embarrassment.

He originally wanted to carry his nephew into the city with his own hands, but he didn't expect the child to be so accepting of life.

"Your Majesty, Gongsun, please forgive me." Zhao Yun held Gongsun Cheng with one hand and patted his back gently with the other. "The young master is overly sad and was frightened when he broke out of the encirclement. He is a little resigned to his fate."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I have pity on my nephew." Gongsun Jing raised her sleeves and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

It's pitiful that he could still squeeze out tears so sincerely after crying so many times in one day.

"Your Excellency, could it be that Zhao Zilong who rode into Yi Jing to save the country alone?" Gongsun Jing suddenly seemed to be in a daze, and his face showed some surprise, as if he had just seen Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows slightly. He had no idea that news spread so quickly in the North.

"I heard that your Excellency defeated many with less and repelled many barbarians." The look on Gongsun Jing's face showed just the right amount of appreciation, "You are really a young hero."

Even towards a young captain like Zhao Yun, he was still friendly and polite.

"I don't dare to take it seriously. Although Yun fought off the wild dog, he accidentally escaped the culprit. It is really a big mistake."

Such a polite and virtuous corporal manner reminded Zhao Yun of Duke Xuande, but the man in front of him...

Zhao Yun felt even more disgusted and disdainful, and with his personality, he rarely uttered a stab.

Hearing Zhao Yun's words about getting rid of the culprit, Gongsun Jing paused for a moment, but unexpectedly did not show any strange expression.

Zhao Yun, who had been sullen but focused on him, frowned slightly when he saw this.

"Forgive me, Gongsun. It's windy and cold on the road. The young master is wearing thin clothes and can't bear the cold. Yun will take the young master back first."

Zhao Yun was only 23 years old at this time. He had personally experienced the tragedy in Yangqiuli. He personally collected the ashes of the villagers and Pao Ze who died in the battle, and they are still stored in a collection vehicle in the convoy.

He also couldn't bear to get entangled with Gongsun Jing.

Holding Gongsun Cheng in his arms, he turned around and returned to Gongsun Yan's car.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Gongsun Jing's face, who stayed where he was.

But he still didn't get angry.

Instead, a soldier came out from behind him, his beard and hair spread out, his eyes glaring, and his hand holding the sword at his waist.

"Shuzi is shapeless!"

The soldier stepped forward and was about to explode. Zhao Yun also stopped and faced him expressionlessly.

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became tense, Gongsun Jing hurriedly stepped forward to stop his entourage.

"Captain Zhao is worried about the young master, what's wrong?" Gongsun Jing scolded, "Why don't you retreat quickly?"

The soldier who was stopped was startled, looked at the angry look on Gongsun Jing's face, and hurriedly retreated, only to return to his own team, and looked at Zhao Yun again with an annoyed look on his face.

Zhao Yun did not comment on this farce. He turned around and carried Gongsun Cheng back to the merged car.

Gongsun Jing is Gongsun Yan's uncle. Even if he feels depressed and can't vent it, he doesn't have to worry too much.

This small incident in Tao Zhong calmed down under Gongsun Jing's pressure before it caused any waves.

Because the Gongsun siblings were back in the car, Gongsun Jing had many things on her mind and lacked someone to perform with, so she had to give up.

The team set off again towards Lingzhi City.However, during this period, everything fell into the eyes of everyone, and smart people could analyze and plan for a long time.

Because they were delayed for a while by the Chi Road, even though they accelerated their march, it was already late at night when Gongsun Yan and his party arrived at Lingzhi City Gate.

The Gongsun family in Lingzhi City has been in business for several generations, and all the successive governors of western Liaoning are descended from the Gongsun family.

Under the hazy night, the tall city wall with a base of more than ten meters wide was winding like a giant beast. Every few steps there was a lit torch, and soldiers were patrolling the city tower from time to time.

The city gate that should have been closed was opened, the lights were bright, and large groups of people held torches to greet them at the city gate.

The long car drove into two parts in front of the tower.

More than two hundred cavalry guards sent by Gongsunda will rest in the camp outside the city along with Zuoping Ping's troops.

Also accompanying him were the forty households with hundreds of workers exchanged by Gongsunda and Zhao Yun, and dozens of Wuhuan prisoners.

We don't know Tian Kai's situation yet, we can only make plans after Tianming contacts him.

The leader of these two hundred cavalry was an old acquaintance - Gongsunda's deputy general Wang Yan.

He and Zhao Yun have carried guns together and shared filth together. They got along quite harmoniously in Xiangguan and respected Zhao Yun very much. These civilians and Wuhuan prisoners were temporarily handed over to him, and he would not disappoint his trust.

In addition, Zuo Yuan, a local snake from the Lingzhi community, helped to prevent trouble.

Gongsun Yan's parallel carriage and several baggage carriages walked into the gate of Lingzhi City under the personal protection of Zhao Yun and dozens of other white horse followers.

Gongsun Cheng was already asleep, and Ah Qing also went to sleep on the small couch set up in the carriage behind.

There were no lights in the car, and the maid Alan sat quietly aside.

In the eyes of outsiders, Gongsun Yan, who had passed out from grief, was sitting in the parallel car, secretly opening a corner of the car curtain and looking at the city gate.

Everyone riding outside the car held torches, which made it easier for Gongsun Yan to observe this first big city she entered after arriving in the late Han Dynasty.

Because it was a night curfew, the road was dead silent with no pedestrians.

Different from Xiangguan, Lingzhi City is much more magnificent.

The buildings in the city look much better than those in Xiangguan.

Most of the buildings in Xiangguan City are built of rammed earth with thatched roofs.

In Lingzhi City, when walking to the center of the city, you can see houses with brick and wood frames.

She drove through the south gate and walked on the main road in the city for a long time. She also hid behind the curtain and watched for a long time.

Lingzhi City also adopted the longitude and latitude layout of Qin and Han cities, with streets and lanes distributed horizontally and vertically.

The road Gongsun Yan was walking on was extremely wide, and the buildings along the road were indistinct.

She could only see something roughly through the torch in the hand of Zhao Yun who was riding nearby.

As we walk closer to the city center, better and more buildings appear on both sides of the road. The rammed earth huts almost disappear and are replaced by blue brick houses.

Famous houses, shops, and markets were lined up among them, and she also saw a few places that looked like government offices.

Compared with the big cities of later generations, it is not surprising that the whole branch city looks gray.

But Gongsun Yan was in a daze. She seemed to be able to imagine people coming and going in these places during the day, talking and doing business.

Maybe you bump into an acquaintance and stop to say hello.

Children are running and playing on the road, eating snacks and playing games.

What kind of troubles adults will have and what kind of entertainment they will have.

In the dark and silent streets, the only sounds were the wheels turning and the horses' hooves trampling the ground.

But she seemed to see a lot through the darkness.
