Travel to ancient times and make a fortune

Wanting looked at her mother helplessly and thought to herself: You can say this without blushing or out of breath~
  But in the end, she decided that after returning to Beijing, she would have to increase the amount of exercise every day.

A family of three and one kid stayed in Tanglin for nine days. In addition to climbing the mountain, we also had a good stroll around Tanglin and ate a lot of local specialties along the way.

On the first day of June, a family of three took the waterway all the way north along the Heishui River.

The Blackwater River runs from north to south, from the north of Dongjiang Mansion to the south of Dongling Mansion. A group of people chartered a small passenger boat and enjoyed fishing on the boat while admiring the scenery.

For two days on the boat, I ate all kinds of river fresh food caught by myself every day. However, due to the lack of seasoning on the boat, the taste was somewhat bland. Of course, this was for Li Xiao, while Ouyang Yiyun and Wanting loved the fresh and delicious taste.

After wandering on the waterway for two days, the group changed to the land route and entered Dongjiang Mansion on the third day.

Although Dongjiang Prefecture is the northern border of Dali, and the weather is freezing in winter, here, there is the largest mountain range in Dali: Dongling Mountains, located in the northwest of Dongjiang Prefecture, occupying nearly half of Dongjiang Prefecture. area.

To the southeast of Dongjiang Mansion is the Changbai Mountains extending all the way from Dongling Mansion. The Black River rushes from north to south between the two mountain ranges, thus washing out a fertile plain between the two mountain ranges.

Because of this geographical environment, almost all the towns and villages in Dongjiang Prefecture are built along the Heihe River. Those facing the river have mountains on their backs. They can both "depend on the river and feed on the river" and "depend on the mountains and feed on the mountains." The people have never thought of this. Jiangdong is cold and there is little food to eat.

Because there are so many fresh foods from the mountains and rivers in Jiangdong, the family of three stayed in Dongjiang for half a month and almost ate all the specialties in the entire Dongjiang area.

Moreover, when entering the Dongling Mountains at a mountain pass, Li Xiao actually asked Li Xiao to "dig out" a ginseng nest and dig out three hundred-year-old ginseng plants that were of excellent quality!

Hundred-year-old ginseng is a rarity even in the palace. Li Xiao is really lucky. This does not include licorice, schisandra, saposhnikovia, gentian and other medicinal materials. Li Xiao also directly collected a lot of them and handed them all to Jishi Tang in Dongjiang Fucheng.

It is worth mentioning that Li Xiao paid for the medicinal materials he handed over to Jishitang. This is very "Li Xiao", marrying husband and wife, and settling accounts clearly.

After having fun in Jiangdong Mansion and earning some money for travel, Li Xiao finally planned to set off westward to take a good tour of the northern border of Dali.

In the northern border of Dali, in summer, it is a vast prairie. When the wind blows, what you see is waves of green.

After the group left Dongjiang Mansion, they abandoned the carriage and rode horses instead.

Li Xiao's riding skills are not good, but she is not in a hurry when she goes out to play, so her half-hearted riding skills are enough.

Ouyang Yiyun and Wanting, father and daughter, are descendants of the royal family, and riding is one of the must-learn courses. Naturally, their riding skills are not much different.

As soon as Wanting entered the grassland, she was like a wild horse that had escaped the reins. Li Xiaola couldn't pull her back (mainly because of her poor riding skills and couldn't catch up.), so she could only let Wanting, who had changed from a secret guard to an open guard, Liuliu and others were divided into four people to follow Wanting to ensure the girl's safety.

Ouyang Yiyun was more willing to follow his young wife than gallop on the grassland. The two of them, together with the six guards left behind, looked at the people in front of them from a distance, and rode forward unhurriedly. OK. Li Xiao looked at his daughter's joyful laughter while riding the horse, and suddenly turned to the person next to him and said, "How about you go and run a few laps?"

When Ouyang Yiyun heard this, he looked at Li Xiao with tender eyes and said with a smile: "If you come with me, I would be willing to run a few laps. Otherwise, it would be nice to just stroll around like this."

When Li Xiao heard the word "walk" and looked at the girl with flying black hair in the distance, she suddenly felt a little depressed and didn't want to speak.

Ouyang Yiyun was already extremely sensitive to Li Xiao's emotions, so it was inexplicable to see him depressed. After thinking about it, he suddenly rode his horse closer to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao couldn't help but look sideways when he saw people and horses approaching him.

When the two were close enough, Ouyang Yiyun glared, jumped from his horse, turned behind Li Xiao, hugged him, leaned into his ear and said: "Take care of your husband." How about you run around for a while?"

After that, without waiting for the person in his arms to answer anything, he clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and with a "drive" sound, the horse underneath him neighed and galloped forward.

Li Xiao was originally curious as to why Ouyang Yiyun brought the horse so close. Before she could ask the prepared question, she saw the man suddenly leaping behind her. Then, before she could recover from the shock, The horse beneath him was like a fish in water, running happily. Even Li Xiao could feel the joy.

On the grasslands in the north, there are mostly herders. They live in pursuit of water and grass, and they constantly change their living places according to the changes of the seasons.

Scattered domes can be seen everywhere on the grasslands in Dali, so there are basically no city walls or cities in the strict sense on the grasslands.

Ouyang Yiyun told Li Xiao that in the north of the grassland, hundreds of years ago in Dali, in order to resist the Mongols, they spent countless manpower, material resources, and time on the grassland, and finally built a building that stretched across the entire north. A city wall in Xinjiang. This is why, even though Dameng was once the most powerful country among the four countries and was warlike and aggressive, the northern Xinjiang of Dali was still able to live relatively safely for hundreds of years.

Dali has never been a warlike country, but that does not mean that the imperial court can just watch its land being occupied by other countries and its people being harmed by other countries.

It is precisely for this reason that the city wall to defend the northern border rose up on the vast grassland. Several towns built against the wall also emerged from scratch and became the homes of those soldiers who guarded the border.

Over the past few hundred years, those towns formed by the families of border warriors have slowly grown in size, and are now as good as most towns in Dali.

Li Xiao and the others' trip was to take a good look around the towns built against the walls after admiring the vastness of the grassland and the magnificent scenery.

After two days of galloping wildly on the grassland, Li Xiao's riding skills improved visibly, so much so that when heading to Zhenbei City near General Zhenbei's station, Li Xiao rode his horse forward alone.

Zhenbeicheng was originally called Anjia Town. It was the place where the first family members of Zhenbei Army gathered. In the beginning, dozens of families gathered here to stay with their relatives and settled down here. This is where the town got its name.
