Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 34: tour the countryside

According to Cheng Wu, Jiali was the gathering place of the Jia clan. Speaking of the Jia clan, it was the Jin Dynasty who moved the entire tribe called the Jia clan to the hinterland of Jin after the Jin minister Lin Fu killed Chidi a hundred years ago. One of them reproduced and migrated, and came to Chengyi, where they lived together in a cluster, with Jia as the clan.

The few riding boys newly acquired by Wu Tie are all from the Jia clan, and they are quite skilled in bowing horses. He couldn't help but pay more attention to this clan descended from Chi Di. Speaking of which, half of the blood vessels in his body are also What about the Di people? But I don't know where the "mother" who has only a vague impression came from. This is probably a confused thing, even Zhao Yang may not know...

Now Zhao Wuxi sees that, after decades of subtle changes, the appearance and customs of the people in Jiali were almost completely assimilated by the Jin people, and when Di entered China, they belonged to China, and they no longer need to be regarded as aliens. Only the admiration for horses still survives in Jiashi, and men in hakama appear in it from time to time.

After walking around in Jiali, Wu Xian simply bought out the children who belonged to the Jia clan chief and used them as private soldiers in the future. The patriarch of the Jia clan did not dare to accept the silk coins, claiming that the two or three sons were gifts of apology for the gentleman, and he did not insist on it without a shirt, and directly accepted it with a smile.

However, Jia Shi has learned about farming for nearly a hundred years, and he is still in a backward state of slash-and-burn farming. Li people like to hunt, but they don’t care much about shaving food in the ground. The yield per mu is the lowest among the several li. Fortunately, from time to time, there is a supplement of meat from hunting, and I can go to the market in the neighboring town to exchange leather and dried meat for grain and cloth, which can be considered to be able to make ends meet.

Next is Douri.

Compared with Jiali, Douli has wider roads, more neatly arranged houses, and a lot more lively. People come and go from time to time. Chestnut trees are planted by the roadside, and children play in groups under the trees.

The girl with a dirty face used mud to make a pottery bean and pottery li, imitating the adults eating swallows. The boys with snot on their faces were bare buttocks, carrying wooden sticks, and struttingly riding bamboo horses to practice... Military formation?

When Cheng Wu went over and asked, he realized that what they imitated was actually Zhao Wu Xie's posture when he entered the village temple in full armor yesterday. Wu Xie couldn't help laughing and laughing.

When the children saw the idol, they didn't rush over to hug his leg and ask for sweets. Instead, they shyly ran away, hiding in the door and peeking out of the little head with the horned hairstyle. Zhao Wuxi was recorded and sent some Gebu to their home, and told their parents to make more brown clothes for these children to survive the cold winter.

Alas, it is a pity that there is no fruit candy in the pocket. During the Spring and Autumn Period, only the nobles could eat malt and other fermented caramel. Sister Ji Ying prefers caramel, and every now and then she has a piece in her mouth. Those beautiful almond eyes are so sweet that they narrowed into a crescent shape... I wonder if there is any sugar cane that can be made into sugar in the southern border of Chu State? If it is made, the gluttonous Ji Ying's face must not be sweetened with dimples.

Thinking of Ji Ying, Zhao Wuxi smiled, and at the same time remembered his promise to her: next spring, we will definitely change Chengyi Township!

However, in order to realize this idea and complete the big words he said in front of Zhao Yang: to quadruple the plan of Chengyi Township in the next year, it is necessary to completely integrate the interior of Chengyi first. Cheng's four li, must be won quickly!

The Cheng family has now become a stumbling block that hinders Zhao Wuxi from completing the plan, but it is not so easy to remove this big stone that has been rooted for a hundred years. At least, it has to be delayed until the beginning of spring... Thinking of this, Zhao Wu Xie couldn't help but feel a little irritable in his heart.

However, this irritability was quickly dissipated. What he never expected was that his attitude of being close to the people had already won the favor of the entire Douli people. People kept coming to pay their respects, claiming that there had never been such a good village chief who cared for his children, and he was indeed a gentleman of the Zhao family. This made Wu Xie flattered, but he couldn't help but sigh that the people at the bottom of this era are really too simple.

After Dou Pengzu heard about it, he made a special trip to run over from the Xiangsi Temple, personally guided him, and kindly invited Zhao Wuxi to sit at his house. He also deliberately asked several of his daughters and nieces to wipe their eyebrows with makeup and thrush, and wear the dark robes of Quju that he was willing to wear during festivals such as the Winter Solstice, the La Festival, and the Spring Society, and served wine and food.

Sending a daughter off is so blatant, a blind man can see what he wants to do. However, Wu Xie looked at several of Dou's women, her face was barely visible, but her body had inherited Dou Pengzu's physique... so she was 2333.

Wu Xie was not very interested in plump fat girls, but Yu Xi, the attendant, stared intently at Dou Pengzu's direct daughter with a big chest and a big butt.

After he came out, Wu Xie asked, and he followed Wu Xie from the stables. Yu Xi, who had the closest relationship between the master and the slave, scratched his head and said shyly, "Lord, that lady looks like a good child!"

Lady? Zhao Wuxi looked at Yu Xi, who was still skinny despite eating large pieces of meat these days, and expressed his understanding of his desire to improve his family's genes.

Just as the poem says: "Chen is a great girl", these days, the savage people from the bottom of the country really appreciate tall and strong women who can work well and have a good life.

Of course, the aesthetics of the feudal lords and high officials are biased towards the later generations. And Doubi's king, Chu Lingwang, prefers girls with thinner waists, as the so-called "Chu waist is slender and light in the palm", it makes people yearn to think about it.

The reason why Wu Xie thinks so is because he still doesn't know the true meaning of "The King of Chu has a slender waist"...

"I'm glad you've reached the age of marriage. If you really like it, I'll find someone to match you some other day." Zhao Wuxi dropped this sentence and put on the saddle and continued to walk forward. He didn't care too much about it, But I don't know how much shock this has brought to Yu Xi.

Today, Yu Xi saw those children of Jia clan who had just gotten rid of their vassal status, and felt a lot of sympathy, because half a month ago, he was in the same situation. But now, as if in a lifetime, he was definitely able to become a citizen of the country, and he was promoted by the master to be the two cavalry Sima, and he was given to the family as Yu, and he had polished rice and meat to eat.

Before that, let alone a township stuart, even a daughter from an ordinary family, he wouldn't even dare to think about it. But now, he has encountered such an opportunity. In his opinion, it is like touching the clouds in the sky - Yu Xi's eyes are now at this level.

This is all a gift from the Lord!

Loyalty and gratitude to Zhao Wuxi were like vines in the wild, growing wildly in Yu Xi's heart. He wiped his wet eyes and firmly followed Zhao Wuxi behind him.

After sending Zhao Wuxi away from Douli, Dou Pengzu walked with a fat body again and asked him to drive an ox cart to his hometown temple. He also went to accompany Ji Qiao to count the harvest and the number of households this year, and make a statement for next year. budget.

Just last night, when Zhao Wuxi was going to use the word and concept of budget to pretend again in front of Ji Qiao, he was slapped in the face by Ji Qiao. At that time, Ji Qiao shook his head and said, "The so-called budget is actually done by Qiao every year. Isn't it just living within our means? But the word budget is a good word, and Qiao will be called that in the future."

The pretense failed! Zhao Wuxi felt that his intelligence and dignity as a traveler were being mocked. In a fit of anger, he gave Ji Qiao the top ten puzzles in mathematics for later generations. Since Ji Qiao learned "Zhou Bi's Numbers" and vertical formulas and equations, he thought that the world is unparalleled in math~www.wuxiahere.com~, so he confidently took it over, and let him be immortal and want to die for a month before talking about it.

Next, we arrived at the mulberry. As the name suggests, the tall mulberry tree in the center of the li can be seen from a distance. The broad shade of the tree covers almost half of the li, and it is lush and lush, like the canopy of a horse-riding chariot.

Zhao Wuxi and his group of six rode along the road on horseback, but at a narrow corner, he suddenly reined in the reins.

Because there was a sudden uproar of people in front, and the sound of the dog barking could still be heard vaguely. Several people looked at each other in dismay, Cheng Wu said suspiciously: "Could it be that Sang Li heard that the Lord was inspecting, so he gathered the crowd to greet him?"

Zhao Wuxi frowned. Today, he planned to patrol in small clothes, and he didn't like such a big battle.

"Go ahead and see what's going on!"

Zhao Wuxi took the lead on the horse. As soon as the horse's head came out of this corner, he glanced out, and he couldn't help taking a breath.

There were nearly two hundred menacing men on the opposite side. Most of them were wearing short coats and short browns. They all held wooden sticks, farm implements, and even copper spears and swords that reflected the cold light. These people had blocked the exit of the road. !

Cheng Wu also shouted badly behind him: "Oops! It's a soldier of the Cheng clan!"

When Zhao Wuxi heard this, he was a little stunned for a while.

Hunting wild geese all day long, but being pecked in the eye by a wild goose today?

Could it be that this Cheng clan was so bold that he wanted to gather a crowd to murder him! ?
