The Master of the Kingdom

Su Yi is very anxious to leave Beijing, so he won't be anxious when he leaves Beijing.

Although the situation in the border area is very tense, there is no major incident in Qingzhou. Even if Mu Yan had a lot to do, he was not in a hurry for this day or two.

The ancient roads were all dirt roads, paved with gravel at most. The winter is dry and less rainy, so the road is easier to walk. If this is not the case, Mu Yan will definitely wait for the river to boil and freeze before letting people bring Su Yi's piano from the waterway.

There are rivers in the capital that can directly lead to the Bohai Sea. From the Bohai Sea and then take the waterway within Qingzhou, you can reach the current state capital of Qingzhou.

Mu Yan set off lightly. This piano was considered the most valuable and the heaviest luggage.

Su Yi never thought of bringing a piano when she was out of Beijing. He knew that the road in ancient times was not smooth and the piano was not lucky. After listening to it can be transported by water, Su Yi decided to transport the piano to Qingzhou by water.

But Mu Yan opposed it. He said that because the piano is expensive, he is not assured that anyone can **** him, and he can just follow the others. Anyway, he is not short of people.

In the end, the treatment that the piano enjoys is probably higher than that of human beings.

The piano was wrapped in a thick layer of soft silk cloth, and thick fur was tied on the outer side of the silk cloth, and then placed in a large box stuffed with straw. The box was wrapped with several layers of waterproof linoleum. This huge box is exclusive to a big car. And this big wagon enjoys the same treatment as the wagon that Su Yi and Mu Yan rode, and the wheels are covered with shock-absorbing leather.

Su Yi looked at such a big battle, thinking that even if the piano is made of glass, it would be helpless for the bumps along the way.

It can only be said that no matter how primitive conditions are in ancient times, only powerful and powerful can still do many things that modern times find difficult.

The piano is like this, so is the carriage that Su Yi and Mu Yan are riding in.

The bumps of the carriage on the dirt road must be indispensable, but the carriage is not only very spacious, but also covered with several layers of shock-absorbing and warm leather. In addition, the road is dry and the carriage is not traveling fast. Su Yi is in the carriage. Feeling flustered.

There are many delicate "organs" in the carriage. The card slot can be drawn out from under the carriage seat, and charcoal fire can be placed under the card slot, and warm tea or soup can be placed on the top. There are also small drawers hidden in the carriage, which can take out a variety of dried fruit snacks.

If you sit in such a carriage by yourself, you can even lie on it, which is very comfortable. But when two people were sitting, they squeezed a little bit and could only lie down.

But reclining is not bad, and it is still very comfortable.

At Mu Yan's level, the carriage is pulled by four horses, and the horse drawn by Mu Yan's family is naturally the most suitable horse for carriage. It can be seen that the carriage is by no means small.

As soon as these four horse-drawn carriages appeared, even if no one cleared the way, everyone else on the way would take the initiative to give way. Because of the number of horses pulling the cart, you can see the level of the people riding on it. According to the etiquette regulations of the Yu Dynasty, the emperor rode a six-horse-horse-drawn cart, and the prince and the royal family rode a five-horse-drawn cart. As for the scholar-official class, the highest level is a four-horse horse-drawn cart. The rest of the officials are three horse-drawn carts.

For civilians, there are no regulations. One horse and two horses can be used, depending on their financial resources.

Of course, the emperor can give special commendations to certain people and allow them to exceed their own specifications. For example, with three divisions and three public ministers, who have become honorary positions, the travel specifications can be equivalent to that of the clan, using a five-horse horse-drawn cart.

The emperor had long wanted to give Mu Yan some special rewards, anyhow he let Mu Yan ride in a five-horse horse-drawn cart, but Mu Yan himself refused. Mu Yan felt that he was not qualified enough and didn't need to be so high-profile.

Mu Yan regrets a long journey now. Su Yi didn't complain, he always felt that the carriage was too small, which made Su Yi uncomfortable sitting.

The last autumn hunt was fine, and the journey was not long. The journey so far this time, bumping Su Yi, really made him feel distressed.

Of course Su Yi couldn't sit in a horse-drawn carriage as comfortable as possible. No matter how good this carriage is, it is far inferior to modern transportation. But compared to what he imagined, it was a lot more, and Su Yi was content.

If he travels alone, he can only ride in a three-horse horse-drawn vehicle. He has no official position, and after being awarded the "Heavenly Master", he can only be equivalent to an ordinary official.

This is also the emperor didn't think about it. After all, Su Yi rarely goes out. The emperor rang, and his travel specifications would immediately be equal to the clan.

This is nonsense, Su Yi is the emperor's eldest son. The emperor himself, it was too shameful to go out in a carriage and only had three horse-drawn carriages.

However, the emperor only realized this when he was sending off his friendship. It is too late to remedy it now. The emperor thought, after this matter was over, when he gave Su Yi a reward, he would add this matter, and now he was temporarily wronged by Su Yi.

Su Yi jokes: "If you feel too crowded, go out by yourself. Then I'll take another carriage."

Mu Yan shut up immediately.

Su Yi looked out of the car window and said, "It's getting dark. I can't get to the city today."

Mu Yan frowned. He summoned people to ask, as expected, he couldn't get to the town before dark today, so he could only go to the nearest post.

Mu Yan said: "Didn't you say it? It's okay to hurry up, try not to live in the post."

It's nothing for him, how can Su Yi live in the humble place of the post?

The leader of the team rushed to guilty, and there were several teams on the official road today. Even if those people would give way, it would still take some time.

Su Yi said: "Don't embarrass people. This road is not our family's walking. It is also possible to live in an inn, go out, don't be too spoiled."

Mu Yan asked people to step back and said, "I don't care. I still try to sleep on the ground when I march. But how can you stand it?"

Su Yi said: "Why can't I take it anymore? I'm not from a young age."

No, I've really grown up, I've been in good clothes for the rest of my life. Su Yi Xindao. But as he said, how can there be so much attention when going out? Now I am traveling with Mu Yan, and the road is comfortable enough.

Mu Yan sighed when Su Yi said so, "Then be patient. I'm wronged you."

Su Yi said: "I don't feel wronged, you feel wronged, right? Sir Governor Governor?"

Mu Yan laughed, shook his head and said, "Well, I said a lot. Then let's stay at the station temporarily."

After receiving the order, the leader breathed a sigh of relief. Although this kind of thing is inevitable, it is also possible to receive some scolding. Fortunately, there is Master Su Tian.

The rejoicing of the leader is not that Mu Yan is cruel, but that this society is so distinct. Even if there is an accident, if the host's order is not fulfilled, he will always be punished. If it is lighter, he will also be fined a few months. Although it is not serious, it is always punished.

The Yu Dynasty has been established for several years, and the post station should be repaired and built. Although this station is small, it is not too dilapidated, at least it will not leak rain or wind.

There is no need to mention the furnishings in the house. Although Mu Yan travels lightly, he also brings a few sets of necessities, at least there must be some quilts, basins and bowls.

After Mu Yan moved into the post, the staff of the post followed in fear, but Mu Yan did not intend to see him.

How could he meet a postman alone in his position? The little official also had a few words with the servants he was accompanying, and even the subordinates that Mu Yan brought with him did not dare to speak.

Mu Yan's subordinates all have official positions.

Mu Yan, as the governor, also specially brought a team of warriors with a position to personal protection, which shows the emperor's closeness to him.

But Mu Yan knew in his heart that this team was actually arranged by the emperor for Su Yi, and they were all specially trained cronies, but under the guise of him. He doesn't need the emperor to send someone, he has a soldier.

The servant cleaned the room in the station and replaced it with the quilt he brought, and then requisitioned the station’s kitchen to cook for Mu Yan and Su Yi.

The station naturally has a kitchen stove, and you can also buy some hot food. Of course, if you have servants at home, you can also rent the stove to cook.

Although it is not as uncomfortable as the city, it is indeed not uncomfortable.

After a bumpy day, Suyi used some food hastily, and went to bed early before it got dark. When Mu Yan was about to read a book for a while before going to bed, he heard someone begging to see him.

Although Mu Yan took few people and looked low-key (by his standards), the four-horse horse-drawn cart had exposed his identity, and it was normal for officials to ask for interviews. Mu Yan is still energetic, and official communication is the case. Even if it is lower than his official position, it is best not to be too arrogant, and Mu Yan will see him.

But I didn't expect that soon after the official started talking, the topic would turn to his new concubine, and Mu Yan couldn't laugh or cry.

It is common for officials to have private prostitutes in the homes of wealthy officials, and it is also common for them to give beauties to each other. Although Mu Yan hated women and men before meeting Su Yi, there were also many beauties in the mansion. Let them dance, sing and sing in their free time, which is also good as a pastime. He thought that Su Yi didn't like it, but he didn't expect that Su Yi would be interested in watching the excitement. He did not dismiss these people.

Of course, you won't bring it when you travel.

This official probably wanted to give him a beautiful woman because he didn't have many people with him, and there was no "serving" person. I don't know how beautiful his concubine is, so he feels that he will agree.

But even before meeting Su Yi, Mu Yan couldn't accept a concubine from an unknown official on the road. He didn't answer at all, and let the official blow for a long time with a smile.

After the official talked to himself for a while, after seeing Mu Yan's alienated smile, he couldn't help but burst into a cold sweat, knowing that he seemed a bit too aggressive. But after knowing that this person was Mu Yan, he still wanted to take a risk. With his position, it is really difficult to meet Mu Yan's high-ranking officials. It's hard to come across. It's a thoughtful person who wants to fight.

So the official shyly went straight to the topic, saying that he would give it to Mu Yan.

Mu Yan served tea directly. As a result, the official's status was too low, and he didn't know the "secret talk" between officials and officials in the capital, that is, he didn't know the meaning of serving tea to send guests off, and he continued to praise his beautiful concubine.

Mu Yan only interrupted him loudly, saying: "The officer is sleepy, but there is something else?"

Yes, I want to send you a beauty. The official opened his mouth and almost threw this sentence out. Anyone who can be an official is not stupid. Mu Yan is so straightforward. He still doesn't understand that Mu Yan is not interested in what he said as a beautiful concubine, because there is a problem with his brain.

So the official had to retreat quietly. But he did not give up. He is very confident in his beautiful concubine, if it weren't for Mu Yan's high status, he would not bear it. There was a colleague who wanted to exchange ten singers, but he didn't change it.

The officials decided to come in a roundabout way, such as a chance encounter.

He made people watch Mu Yan's actions and asked his concubine to meet Mu Yan by chance.

The beautiful concubine glanced at Mu Yan, and she also liked Mu Yan very much in her heart. Don't talk about status, just talk about that face, it's likable. If he could follow this adult, he would be better than the current patrons. She also specifically asked people to inquire, knowing that Mu Yan was not accompanied by a woman who was waiting. I thought that even if this adult had other beauty at home-of course, this is for sure. But on the road, she was confident that she would make Mu Yan like herself. She is very proud of her colors and methods.

At this time, the men's and women's defenses were not strict, and the beautiful concubine got up early to wash and dress up, and went to meet Mu Yan by chance. As a result, the people serving by Mu Yan surrounded him several times, saying that chance encounters were impossible.

The concubine thought for a while and decided to start with others. She saw that the simple-dressed little Taoist next to Mu Yan seemed to have some status, and she thought that this must be an alchemist raised in a rich family. This kind of hairy boy who doesn't see a woman is best to lie. She adjusted her smile and blocked Su Yi's path.

Su Yi was surrounded by a lot of people, but he felt a little bored, so he took only one person, walked around in the yard, and set off after the next person had packed his things. He didn't expect to be blocked by the beauty.

Then he heard the beauty whispering for a long while, uh, he didn't understand.

This really can't blame Su Yi. That beauty speaks the local dialect, how can Su Yi understand the dialect?

Seeing Su Yi's bewildered look, the beauty remembered that this group of people had come from the capital, so she changed to Mandarin for fear of not understanding the local dialect. But she is just a small local, and she is valued by officials for her beauty. She only learned a few sentences in Mandarin when she was serving officials, and of course it was not standard.

Then Su Yi still couldn't understand.

Su Yi looked at the person next to him in confusion: "What did this girl say? Do you need help?"

The man thought for a while, and said, "Tianshi, young people can't understand it. But adults have a guide who understands the local dialect."

Su Yi said: "Forget it, don't have to be so troublesome."

Seeing that he had come out for a walk, he quickly ran to protect his servants, and said: "Call the post office official. He must understand."

After all, Su Yi saw the stiff look of the beauty.

Although the beautiful concubine didn't quite understand Mandarin, she still understood. So she anxiously repeated asking Su Yi to take him to find Mu Yan, she must have a word of thanks.

After listening to it a few more times, although Su Yi didn't quite understand it, she understood what adult that person was looking for. He suddenly realized: "Is he here to find Heqing? Is there any wrongdoing?"

Isn't it all written in this way? Is there a high official who lives in the post and encounters a beautiful woman and complains?

Su Yile felt that something interesting finally happened, so he sent people to find Mu Yan.

"This Daoist, doesn't the girl have any wrongdoing?" Suddenly a young man said, "She means she is willing to thank you so much that you will take her to find an adult who is with you."

Su Yi's heart suddenly became cordial when he heard the full-blown Mandarin. God knows that the farther you leave the capital, the more diverse these accents will be. He only brought the Mandarin language module with him, and he didn't understand the rest.

"Take her to find Heqing?" Su Yi said, "Why didn't you find Heqing injustice?"

The man in a green shirt laughed and said, "You can find it if you are not wronged."

Su Yi hasn't been stunned yet.

It’s not that he didn’t know that someone might have liked Mu Yan. It’s just that he had seen this beautiful woman when he stayed at the station yesterday. He knew that this beautiful woman behaved very closely with someone who seemed to be an official. He knew that they were "a pair". ". So he couldn't think of what a "married woman" would go to Mu Yan to do.

After all, he was still thinking of modern people, and he didn't know it was messy at this time.

The beauty was a little angry. She was a little embarrassed when others couldn't understand what she said just now. Now the little Taoist knew what she meant, and asked questions, which made her feel very unbearable.

Although it was her own decision to seduce people, she just wanted to be gentle and didn't want to be blocked here and asked repeatedly.

However, she knew that the little Taoist priest seemed to be valued by the adult, so she endured it, and only continued to request, with a bit of tragic meaning.

Although Su Yi couldn't understand her, his expression still understood. He said to the Tsing Yi humane: "This girl is almost crying, is she really wronged?"

The man in Tsing Yi thought he was clear enough. Seeing that little Taoist was stunned, he couldn't laugh or cry: "This girl is probably lovesick, right?"

Su Yi's eyes widened in surprise, and suddenly turned his head to look at the beauty. The beauty was said to have been broken, and finally couldn't hide his embarrassed expression.

Su Yi stammered: "Yes, but this girl is not, not..."

"Not what?" Mu Yan's voice came from behind Su Yi.

Mu Yan came over and complained first, "Kangle, even if you want to take a walk, you should bring more people. This is no better than Beijing."

Su Yi quickly told Rao, for fear that Mu Yan would nag again. There are others here, so shameless.

Mu Yan glanced at the woman who immediately switched to the shy mode, then turned her head and said: "Stained the eyes of the celestial master, tied it and threw it to that person, and told him that the official took it down."

"Hey, don't you need it?" Su Yi immediately stepped forward to cover the woman's mouth when he saw the people next to Mu Yan, and said hurriedly.

He's not doing well, so he's not so good to a weak woman, right?

Mu Yan said: "Yesterday, the official who was with him wanted to give money to me, but I refused. I wanted to do more than less, and let him retreat. I didn't expect that he didn't give up, thinking Start from you. This gift to Shangguan is a felony."

Although if it is not reported, it is nothing.

Su Yi immediately made up for the conspiracy theory. This is a public place, do you want to frame Mu Yan! Ah, sure enough, he said, according to the plot of the novel he read, there will be twists and turns in this kind of external release, and someone will surely plot it. Look, it really came right now.

Su Yi hurriedly said, "It's really sinister!"

Mu Yan knows Su Yi's brain circuit very well. Seeing that Su Yi has been distracted by herself, he smiled and said, "Yes. I haven't taken up the post, so someone will try it out. So you must be careful about Kangle, don't next time. Walk alone."

"I actually brought people...well, next time I will bring a few more people." Su Yi thought for a while, said, "Forget it, I'll walk with you instead of coming out alone."

Su Yi was not confident at all about his ability to see through conspiracies and tricks. Since Mu Yan's trip is so difficult, he can't cause trouble. He can still follow Mu Yan.

The man in Tsing Yi was watching the audience and almost couldn't help laughing.

Of course he saw that this was not a conspiracy at all, but some people wanted to please the wrong person because of the temper of the person being pleased. This person was obviously frightening the little Taoist priest and didn't want him to leave his sight?

"The lower official has seen the adults." The Qingyi people bowed their hands after seeing the two of them finished speaking.

Mu Yan glanced at the man indifferently, and said, "Qi Yun, long time no see."

Su Yi looked at the person named Qi Yun, then at Mu Yan's expression, and said, "You know?"

Mu Yan nodded and said, "I used to be a colleague."

Qi Yun smiled bitterly: "It's in Xia Menglang."

Seeing that the atmosphere of the two seemed a little strange, Su Yi dared not speak any more.

Mu Yan was not cold, he said: "Your Majesty Dao will send me an unexpected helper, is it you?"

Qi Yun said: "How do adults know?"

Mu Yan sneered: "Your Majesty doesn't tell me who it is, I only think of you if I just talk about your right-hand man. I just didn't expect to see you here."

Qi Yun said: "It is the fault of the official to make the adults unhappy."

Mu Yan said: "It's not unhappy, you are still capable."

Mu Yan thought for a while, and said to Su Yi: "This is my cousin, auntie."

Auntie? Mu Yan's father's cousin, right? Although it was said in ancient times that one watch was three thousand miles away, it was not considered a relative, but since Mu Yan didn't talk about the distant house, this is a cousin for relatives? Could it be that these two people have had any trouble before?

Su Yi naturally stood by Mu Yan's side unconditionally. Seeing that Mu Yan didn't seem to want to talk to that person too much, he was fully equipped with his emotions, showing the special expression of the celestial master, and nodded in salute: "Master Qi."

He was allowed to not bow to the prince, and of course Mu Yan's future subordinates did not have to bow.

Qi Yun was stunned for a moment. He didn't seem to understand that he had already revealed his official status. Why is this little Taoist priest so incomplete in his manners? Is it arrogant and arrogant? However, Qi Yun immediately thought of some rumors in Beijing, and immediately bowed his hands in a salute, and said with a serious face: "You can't be called a celestial master like that."

"Okay, it's time to set off." Mu Yan interrupted the two of them very unceremoniously, and said to Qi Yun, "Since I have met all of them, let's go with him. But, are you waiting for me here deliberately?"

Qi Yun smiled bitterly: "This is indeed a chance encounter."

Mu Yan nodded, stretched out his hand to hold Su Yi, and left without looking back.

Su Yi was at a loss. Mu Yan's attitude is very strange.
