Chapter 71 Zhao Yan comes from the north

 On the tenth day of October of the fifth year of Zhongping (188).

Taishan County. Juping County.

"Crack..."

"Picking..."

On a road from south to north, a gorgeous carriage and a rider slowly moved forward.

The horse's hooves hit the ground, and the wheels made a terrifying friction sound on the rugged road. The horses made a loud noise from time to time and sprayed a breath of white air, making the monotonous and lonely road beautiful.

There were two people sitting in the carriage, one was Zhao Yan, the governor of Qingzhou who fled to Yanzhou, and the other was Wang Yu, the former leader of Yanzhou who accompanied Zhao Yan to the north.

A person riding a horse outside the car is in his twenties, dressed like snow, has a gentle temperament and a dignified appearance, and has a kind of indifference and calmness that is beyond the world.

"Yagui, after passing the Wenshui River, he has now entered the Juping Realm of Taishan County. Should I rest in Juping for a while, and then slowly head north after noon?"

Zhao Yan sat in the carriage, lowered his head, and his sleepiness came from time to time.

At this time, when Wang Yu heard Wang Yu's reminder, Zhao Yanqiang was energetic, lifted the curtain and looked out. It was just dawn, and through the curtain, you could feel the coldness outside the car.

"I remember passing Juping, Bo County is ahead, and it takes about three or four hours to arrive. Why don't we rest in Bo County today and rush to the road tomorrow."

They arrived at Ningyang County, Dongping Country at noon yesterday. Zhao Yan rushed back to Qingzhou, so he didn't have much rest and urged Wang Yu to rush on his way.

As a result, I missed the time in this journey. When I arrived in Wenyang County, it was already night and could not enter the city, so I had to continue north.

I just walked along the way, but I didn't find any stations or hotels. There was no way, so Zhao Yan and others could only move forward in the dark, intending to wait until they found a suitable place before resting.

"Would Wang Biejia also want to personally see the current situation of Taishan County under Tao Ying's rule? Bo County is not far from Fenggao, so you can take the opportunity to observe it."

Seeing Zhao Yan insisting so much, Wang Yu was dissatisfied and pretended not to say anything else. He nodded, lifted the curtain, turned his eyes to the person riding a horse outside the car, and waved to him.

"Staff Master Deng, let's stop in Juping for a moment. Please buy some food and drinks. We will cushion our stomachs on the way. We will wait until Boxian ahead to rest."

After traveling all night, Deng Zhan, who was still energetic, nodded and agreed.

"No!"

Yanzhou, Jibei Country, Feicheng County.

After breakfast, I watched the sun rise and there was no more chill. Yuan Shufang was dressed neatly and went out of the camp to meet with the general Yu She and the chief Yang Hong.

"Lord, you don't need to take risks. Why not stay in Feicheng for the time being and General Yu will lead his troops into Taishan County for a walk."

The Chief Secretary Yang Hong once again dissuaded Yuan Shu. Although the Yellow Turban Bandits and the Taishan bandits had been wiped out by Tao Ying, just in case, no one could say whether there would be a fish that would miss the net.

"Yes, lord, you are staying in Feicheng with Yang Changshi. There is no combat mission this time. At the end, you will enter Taishan County and have a shot. You can turn around in the evening."

Yu She also came forward to dissuade him. With five thousand troops guarding him, he believed that Yuan Shu would not encounter any danger when he entered Taishan County, but with Yuan Shu, the "in-chief boss", he would somewhat block his prestige of Yu She's command of troops.

"This general has made up his mind, so you don't need to persuade him anymore. This time, entering Taishan County is nothing more than a formality and acting, and there will be no danger."

"Besides, I want to see with my own eyes what Tao Gongzu's stupid man has tormented Taishan County!"

Yuan Shu stubbornly glanced at the two of them, and a trace of contempt appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Okay!"

Yang Hong and Yu She saw that Yuan Shu had spoken to this point and stopped insisting.

"Yuan Gaolu is determined to embarrass Tao Ying!"

In Yang Hong's opinion, Yuan Shu insisted on entering Taishan County because he wanted to shake the Yuan family's majesty in front of Tao Ying, and he would be even worse than Yuan Shu's intentions.

However, Yu She and Yang Hong were wrong this time, Yuan Shu really didn't mean to show off his power.

Yuan Shu is a person who can't stand loneliness. When he came out, he didn't bring many acquaintances. Now everyone around him has a task to go out. It's so uncomfortable to think that there are not even people who can talk for a day. Instead of staying in Feicheng and waiting, it's better to go out and have a walk.

"The First Emperor once Fengshan Mountain, and I want to come and witness it in person!"

————

Qingzhou, Jinan, Dongpingling.

The noisy footsteps outside the door and the sound of sparrows chirping on the branches foraging, suddenly woke up Tao Ying who was sleeping.

Tao Ying opened his eyes, and a ray of sunlight shone into the room through the curtains, which just shone on his face, making his eyes ached.

"Is it dawning so quickly?"

"It's not too late yet?"

"I want to sleep so much!"

Tao Ying rubbed his sour eyes, pulled his clothes, and walked out of the bed that had just been warm and not long after, and got up reluctantly.

"Oh, it's only been in this era for less than a month, and even the skill of wearing clothes has deteriorated!"

Tao Ying was slow and clumsy and put on his clothes. He didn't even know that he was complaining about the cumbersome wear of Hanfu, or because of the inconvenience of four Dongguan girls around him, in short, he felt unhappy.

"Is this just anger at the bed?"

Tao Ying walked out of the door, stood on the steps in front of the door, silently looking at the rising sun that had not long been rising in the sky.

"I'm not born by you when I'm happy and sleeping at night."

Suddenly, Tao Ying blurted out a few poems from the Book of Songs.

"Be wise and wise, to protect yourself."

But I didn't realize that Chen Deng, Ji Ling, and Yan Liang were already standing behind him.

"Mr. Yuanlong, what is the lord talking about?"

Ji Ling and Yan Liang read little, but could not understand the meaning of Tao Ying's poems. He looked at Chen Deng in confusion and asked him to solve his doubts.

"What does it mean if I don't understand?"

The name of Chen family in Xia Pi is almost well-known to Xuzhou people. All the children of Chen family are well-read and knowledgeable. Naturally, Yan Liang and Ji Ling are not unfamiliar with them.

"The lord is teaching us that when we wake up early and go to bed late, we must think about it and not let our lives down."

Chen Deng stared at Tao Ying's back and nodded thoughtfully.

"The meaning of the latter sentence is to teach us not to participate in things that may bring danger to ourselves."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Ji Ling and Yan Liang listened to Chen Deng's explanation and thought for a moment, a hint of respect appeared on their faces. Tao Ying's image became a little taller in their hearts.

"No wonder the lord can achieve such a success. As expected, I, Ji Ling, are not as good as possible!"

"The lord's words are more reasonable than the saint's "Zi Shu". I, Yan Liang, understand!"

The three of them whispered behind him, saying that Tao Ying became the "master" of preaching and receiving careers. Tao Ying felt his liver trembling and his anger hurt.

Tao Yingnian’s meaning is to express his current attitude towards life.

"It's not easy for me to be a human being for two lifetimes. It's almost time to chaotic times. I must try my best to save my life!"

In order to take into account his tall image, Tao Ying certainly could not tell Chen Deng, Yan Liang and Ji Ling what he really thought. He could only make mistakes and look at the rising sun little by little, and remain silent.

"Master!"

Silence was broken by Ji Ling. His patience was not as good as Chen Deng. He was ignorant and could not hide things. He did not have much insight into life. He liked to express his feelings directly.

“How to arrange today?”

Tao Ying turned around and greeted Chen Deng first.

"Yuan Long slept late last night, why didn't he sleep for a while?"

"You must know that the body is the capital of revolution, and things in this world cannot be done in a short while!"

Tao Ying's words were earnest and concerned about his well-being, but did not make Chen Deng feel a little warm, but instead felt speechless.

"Didn't the lord just say that he had to seize the day?"

"Now Qingzhou is in ruins. Two or three hundred thousand refugees in Jinan need to be resettled. Solving the winter is an urgent task. How can you sleep peacefully!"

Chen Deng's eyes were not dissatisfied, and there was only a speechless look on his face with a slander; there was no question, but he could only be confused.

"Lord, what is the 'revolution'?"

Chen Deng's words made Tao Ying stunned. He was out of kindness and didn't understand why Chen Deng didn't appreciate it.

"Is it because my brother has a problem with his expression?"

Perhaps because the ancients and later generations had different thinking patterns, Tao Ying did not intend to give Chen Deng a picture of what "revolution" is to change the topic.
