Chapter 617: Addiction
The same was true for Lu Qiyan and Xia Yunji. At the same time, they arranged for people to be on duty at night, and then they had dinner with Xia Mingyue.
Pan-fried tofu, vegetarian stir-fried bean sprouts, crispy chicken, braised fish, the staple food is scallion rolls, and the soup is millet porridge.
The home-cooked food tasted good, and several people were quite satisfied with it.
After dinner, although she had been running around all day, she had been in a state of concentration or sleep with her eyes closed or asleep on the carriage. Now she was in a new place, so Xia Mingyue was very awake at this time, not even half sleepy.
Seeing Lu Qiyan checking the route at the table, predicting where he would stay tomorrow, and writing a letter to send in advance, Xia Mingyue stood aside, helping to spread paper and grind ink.
Seeing this, Lu Qiyan paused while holding the pen, and looked at Xia Mingyue with a smile, "I am deeply honored to have a lady with red sleeves to add fragrance to my husband."
"How about you help me next time as a courtesy?" Xia Mingyue joked.
"That would be an even greater honor." Lu Qiyan's smile grew even wider.
Xia Yunji next to him, "..."
Didn't see it!
I was already quite full after dinner, but now I feel even more full.
So, he might as well go find Wujin and play!
At this time, Wu Jin was slowly wandering around the inn. Everywhere he went, he would stop for a moment, smell it carefully, and then leave again, until he had wandered around the entire inn yard. Then he stopped.
"Don't worry, I have sent people to inspect everywhere." Xia Yunji reached out and patted Wu Jin on the forehead.
Wu Jin raised his chin proudly.
You patrol yours, and they patrol theirs, without delaying or interfering with each other.
Seeing that Wu Jin did not agree with his point of view, Xia Yunji chuckled and walked around with Wu Jin only to facilitate his digestion.
Inside the house, Lu Qiyan's letter was written and put aside to dry the ink stains. Xia Mingyue saw that he had to get to a place called Ping'an Station on his route tomorrow. The map showed that the road he needed to drive was longer than today's. , smiled and said, "It seems that we need to leave early tomorrow."
"Yes." Lu Qiyan said, "Not only do we need to set off early, but the rest time at noon tomorrow will not be too long. I have told the cooks to prepare more dry food tomorrow morning for easy consumption at noon."
"Yes."
"Actually, there are many inns, but there are so many people in the mission, and there are even more escorts. The number that can accommodate so many people at the same time is limited."
Lu Qiyan explained, "Furthermore, some inns do not accept people other than messengers to stay, so it is not suitable to go there."
According to the regulations of the Great Zhou Kingdom on post stations, there is a post station every twenty miles on the fastest route from various border passes to the capital. These post stations are dedicated to delivering letters.
When a messenger is delivering a message, he must change horses at each post station to ensure the speed of delivery. If he is found not changing horses, he will be punished with forty canes.
Such frequent transfers can ensure the traveling speed of the messenger, which can cover eight hundred miles a day, and deliver urgent letters to the designated destination as quickly as possible.
However, traveling at a speed of eight hundred miles a day is a huge drain on the messengers and the horses at the post. Therefore, it is not easy to use the eight hundred mile express for ordinary letters that are not urgent military information or the emperor's decree. Instead, depending on the severity of the situation, choose different speeds such as six hundred miles, four hundred miles, two hundred miles per day, etc.
Such a post station is usually frequently visited by messengers, and the letters sent are very likely to involve various information such as military information, official appointments, material distribution, etc., so it is not suitable for unrelated people to know. Naturally, it is even more inappropriate for people like Li Juncheng from Jin Weiguo to know anything about it.
Xia Mingyue nodded when she heard this, "That's it."
Unexpectedly, I didn’t know that there was such a detailed division in the inn. It is said that reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, traveling all the way, what you see and know, can be regarded as gaining a lot of knowledge.
When Lu Qiyan saw Xia Mingyue beaming because she knew something new, he also pursed his lips and smiled. He put the written letter in an envelope and asked his subordinates to hurry up and send it to Ping'an Station overnight.
After finishing all this work, he smiled and said, "Why don't you take a rest, madam?"
"I probably slept a lot during the day, but I'm not very sleepy at this time."
"In that case..." Lu Qiyan said with a smile, "I read a new storybook a few days ago, and the content is quite exciting. Why don't you tell it to me?"
Real person audiobooks?
Xia Mingyue was walking on the road on the first day of the month and was feeling bored. When he saw Lu Qiyan's suggestion, he immediately became energetic and said, "Okay."
"But you can only talk for half an hour."
She was either leaning on or falling asleep along the way, which was quite relaxing and comfortable. However, Lu Qiyan was busy all the way and was very tired. He had to leave early tomorrow and couldn't let Lu Qiyan sleep too late.
Read the original text in Liu#9@书/吧!
Lu Qiyan understood what Xia Mingyue meant and responded with a smile, "Okay, just half an hour."
After that, he took the water glass handed over by Xia Mingyue, took a sip to moisten his throat, and then opened his mouth.
"The original title of this book is "Jinxiu Lu". It is said that in the third year of Shunde, in Yangzhou City, a family named You gave birth to a baby girl in March of Yangchun, when the peach blossoms were in full bloom. Her father took the baby for her. It’s called Jinxiu..."
The story sounded very interesting. Xia Mingyue held her chin and listened attentively.
At this moment, there is also a person who is reading this "Splendid Record" and is also fascinated by it.
He had already read half of the script, which was when You Jinxiu first became Jieyu, and the plot point where the imperial concubine bore a grudge and made things difficult for her in every possible way.
At this time, You Jinxiu can be said to have lost the ignorance and ignorance she had when she first entered the palace, and she no longer had the tendency to easily trust the kindness of others. She has become more mature and thoughtful, and she is neither humble nor overbearing in the face of the imperial concubine's difficulties...
This You Jinxiu has really grown up. Are you suddenly looking forward to the fight between her and the imperial concubine?
And looking at the current situation, why do you think that the queen, who is always a good person, is actually not a kind person?
By the way, when introducing this storybook, Lu Qiyan once said that You Jinxiu would eventually become the Queen Mother, and the Queen must be killed by her in the end.
Suddenly I really want to know how the queen finally took action and how she lost...
Li Juncheng subconsciously wanted to turn back a few pages, but after thinking about it, he took his hand back.
The ups and downs are all experiences. If we go over it so easily, wouldn't it be too much to dare to face the reality?
Just...
