Jinmen, at the bottom of Jiuhe River, is the ferry of the Emperor!
During the Ming Dynasty, when the Ming Dynasty was in trouble and the emperor was fighting for the throne, Ming Dynasty Emperor Chengzu crossed the Grand Canal from here and went south. Therefore, this place was later named Tianjin, which means "the place where the emperor crossed Tianjin".
Yang Fan was riding on his horse, looking at the river not far away, and couldn't help but ask: "Since there is a river, why do we have to rush to Tianjin by land?"
"My lord, that must be the case!"
Liu Juncheng, the newly promoted deacon next to him, quickly said: "A while ago, a group of thieves robbed the island in the middle of the lake and destroyed many sections of the river along the way. At the same time, the river was also blocked by gravel and sand. It is being dredged and repaired recently..."
"..."
The corners of Yang Fan's mouth twitched.
After all, this matter has something to do with him.
At this time, Master Gou looked out of the carriage window: "Xiao Fanzi, how long will it take to reach the southeast coast at such a slow speed?"
"Master Gou, I'm not in a hurry. I'm really worried that the people over there won't suffer!"
Mr. Gou looked concerned about the country and the people.
Yang Fan said with a smile: "Master Dog, don't be anxious. When you get to Jinmen, you can take a boat down and the speed will be faster."
"Push more!"
After saying this, Master Gou retracted his head.
After a while, a faint aroma of meat and a strong aroma of medicine came from inside.
Obviously, Mr. Gou is also carefully preparing for his trip south.
From time to time, you can still hear strange laughter coming from the carriage.
The sound made people's hair stand on end. The people accompanying him subconsciously distanced themselves from the carriage, as if they were afraid of being dragged in by Mr. Dog.
The convoy gradually left Shendu far behind.
Since the horses selected for the team have the blood of monsters, both their leg strength and physical fitness are far superior to ordinary horses. At this time, they are galloping on the official road and traveling at a very fast speed.
Although it was not the first time for Yang Fan to visit Shendu, it was still quite fresh.
Look left and right.
He could clearly feel that the atmosphere of prosperous civilization was gradually fading. When he came to the wilderness, a smell of wilderness hit his face.
Looking far into the distance, one can see endless wilderness and tall and dense mountain forests.
From time to time, you can see villages, towns and stone castles standing among them.
Farmers can still be seen working on the streets. Although their faces are a little green and their linen clothes are a little shabby, they are in good spirits.
At this time, Zhu Yuexian and Chu Lianxin were sitting in the carriage near the front, looking at the scenery along the road.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a scene outside the divine capital."
Compared to Chu Lianxin, who had been fighting in the border areas for many years, Zhu Yuexian left the divine capital for the first time. Everything in the outside world seemed quite new to her.
Chu Lianxin said: "Sister has lived in the divine capital for a long time, so naturally she doesn't know the folk scene. However, this is also close to the divine capital and is relatively peaceful. The further away from the divine capital or the prefecture, the worse the environment. I am afraid that only caravans and large-scale Only the escort agency can pass..."
"Why?"
Zhu Yuexian frowned.
Chu Lianxin sighed: "The wild beasts and monsters running rampant in the wilderness, the mountain bandits and water bandits blocking the roads, and the evil gods who are greedy for blood and food are not something ordinary people can resist."
When Zhu Yuexian heard this, his eyes darkened: "I didn't expect that such things would still exist under my rule, the Ming Dynasty."
Chu Lianxin smiled bitterly: "Although the Ming Dynasty has been around for more than a thousand years, the Great Zhou Dynasty has spread martial arts all over the world, and the martial arts style is still strong. However, it is good to have this martial style, otherwise, the people's lives may be even more difficult."
Zhu Yuexian was silent for this.
Although she had not seen it with her own eyes, according to Chu Lianxin, she could already imagine the hardship of people's livelihood.
"If we have the chance, we should eliminate these hidden dangers and restore peace to the people!"
A firm look flashed in Zhu Yuexian's eyes.
Of course, to do this, she must be able to take control.
Only in this way can she create the Ming Dynasty she wants!
"On this trip, let me see with my own eyes what the Ming Dynasty is like! One day, if I become the emperor, I will clear up the evils of the times and rebuild the world!"
Zhu Yuexian clenched his fists.
The convoy moved very quickly. It set off during the day and arrived in Tianjin in the afternoon.
The land of Jinmen is prosperous as far as the eye can see.
There were officials waiting to greet Zhu Yuexian, His Royal Highness the King of Yue, for a long time. However, Zhu Yuexian did not stay much. He just ordered people to make some supplies and boarded the ship.
Three large ships, one for Zhu Yuexian and Chu Lianxin, one for his cronies, and the remaining one was left to Dongchang.
I wanted to set off directly, but who could have imagined that the weather suddenly changed, thunder rolled, and dark clouds rolled over the city.
"It's raining so hard and it's easy to get into trouble if you travel rashly."
Under the persuasion of people around her, Zhu Yuexian temporarily gave up her plans to travel and ordered to rest where she was and wait for the rain to stop before setting out on the road.
During this break, Master Gou came out.
The hair all over his body was oily and smooth, and he had plenty of energy and blood. It was obvious that he had replenished his body too early.
He went straight to Yang Fan and said, "Ahem, Xiao Fanzi, it's still far to the south of the Yangtze River. Master Gou, I heard that there is also a monastery in the far west of Jinmen. Why don't we take a trip?"
"I couldn't catch a glimpse of you, Xiao Fanzi, last time. Master Gou must have a good look at you this time."
"How about it?"
The last time he failed to repent successfully, Master Gou has always regretted it.
I thought I would have a suitable opportunity only when I went to the south of the Yangtze River, but I didn't expect that the treasure presented by my adopted son Qianer Soda turned out to be a set of geographical scenery maps, detailing the scenery of various places.
It must be said that this person is also a great expert.
Traveling all over the country, I gained a lot of knowledge.
To use Soda's description, this person was a famous scribe who wrote a large number of poems. Everywhere he went, he would stay overnight in local brothels.
The key is, you don't have to pay.
Many women even took the initiative to perform in order to ask for his poems.
He traveled south and north, and finally wrote this collection of Ming Dynasty scenery. He even wanted to become a great Confucian with this book.
After all, it was Wen Dao Changhe who opened his eyes and sent down three thunderbolts in a row, killing him.
After many twists and turns, this scenery map fell into the hands of Dongchang.
Unfortunately, this kind of book was of little use to them, so it was thrown into the library in Dongchang.
Soda also accidentally learned about this book, so he secretly stole it while leaving the city of God, and dedicated it to Lord Gou on the way.
Mr. Dog feels like he has found a treasure.
Naturally, Soda would not hesitate to reward him.
He was given a Holy Qi and Blood Pill, which made Soda tremble.
With this elixir and his previous accumulation, he was able to complete seven blood exchanges and become a master!
And here.
Facing Master Gou's request, Yang Fan looked at the pouring rain outside and didn't know what to say.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard someone reporting outside.
"Sir, His Highness the King of Yue, please come over."
Yang Fan could only show a helpless expression to Master Gou and said, "Master Gou, it seems that I can't accompany you."
"What a bummer!"
Master Gou curled his lips, turned around and walked into the night.
If you don’t pull me down, Master Gou, I’ll go find a nun to confess myself, and I’ll just get used to the new muscle exercises I did recently, Master Gou!
