Luoyang Bridge in the north of Quanzhou City

As soon as the sky was dawn, several riders left the northern city gate of Quanzhou and stepped onto the Luoyang Bridge.

Generally speaking, people in Quanzhou City, traveling north by land, have to pass through Luoyang Bridge outside the north gate, which is a must-pass road.

A group of riders slowly walked to the end of Luoyang Bridge and stopped.

"Wanting, the road is far away and it is dangerous and difficult to move forward. You must be careful along the way." Li Sanjian, who was really worried, reminded Xu Tingting, who was about to go to the capital.

"Well, husband, I understand." Xu Tingting, who was riding on the horse and dressed in a man, looked at Li Sanjian in a low voice and responded in a low voice when she was riding on the horse.

Li Sanjian’s concern for Xu Tingting is beyond words. How could Xu Tingting not feel happy in her heart, and how could she not be extremely moved?

"Sister, you have to listen to Wanting along the way. Don't make decisions without authorization if you have anything." Li Sanjian then bowed to Cai Yingxue Road, who accompanied Xu Tingting to the capital.

Cai Yingxue has excellent martial arts skills and can protect Xu Tingting along the way, but she is not familiar with the worldly style. Therefore, Li Sanjian repeatedly reminds Cai Yingxue.

"I understand, a big man is so long-winded!" Cai Yingxue said with a white look on Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian smiled awkwardly, and then gave Cai Yingxue a look that you know, which made Cai Yingxue blush slightly, and she rode her horse and ran to the front.

At present, it seems that Cai Yingxue's destination is Li Sanjian, so Li Sanjian agreed "reluctantly", but because many things happened now, it has been delayed until now.

"Husband, I'm leaving." Xu Tingting looked at Cai Yingxue who had already run to the front and said goodbye in a low voice.

"Silly girl, I can't say I'll leave, I should say I'll leave..." Li Sanjian, who was riding on the horse, leaned over and hugged Xu Tingting and smiled: "Be careful, if you have something to do, I will never be at ease with your husband for the rest of my life."

When going out, they always seek good luck, and Li Sanjian is also unconventional.

"Yeah..." Xu Tingting hugged Li Sanjian back, then rode her horse and whipped her chasing Cai Yingxue and galloped towards the distance.

Today is a sunny day, and the sun was hanging in the air early. Under the dawn, two strong horses galloped past, rolling up two high dust smoke, and the sound of hooves became smaller and smaller until it was silent.

"Shitou, go back." Li Sanjian turned his horse's head and said to Changsui Shitou until he could not see the shadows of the two.

After Li Sanjian saved the two masters and servants of Shi Tou, because they were from the north and were unfamiliar with the land and had nowhere to go, Li Sanjian simply left the two in the prefect's mansion and used Shi Tou as his long-term follower.

Li Sanjian knew that stone should not be his real name, but he did not want to ask too much about this matter, so he still called stone.

Shitou came to Song to study, and the prefect's residence also collected a lot of books, so Shitou could also read and practice calligraphy in his spare time, and Li Sanjian would give some advice as long as he had time.

Shitou was also very happy about this. Not everyone has this opportunity to be guided by the top scholar of the Song Dynasty. How could Shitou not be happy?

"Prince Li is indeed a passionate person." Shi Tou smiled at Li Sanjian after hearing this.

Shitou is the northernmost person, so he doesn't know much about the rituals of superiority and inferiority in the Han rituals. When he was with Li Sanjian, he basically said whatever he thought of.

It's without any scruples.

"So affectionately has been nothing but hatred. Good dreams are the easiest to wake up. It's not that picking flowers is hard to get rid of. It's so pitiful that flying catkins are too floating." Li Sanjian said with a smile when he heard this.

When Li Sanjian said that, he suddenly remembered Li Qingzhao and the princess. I wonder how they are now?

Are they okay?

Especially Li Qingzhao, it will always be an unforgettable pain in Li Sanjian's heart.

Poetry is a good poem, with exquisite seven-character quatrains that describe a passionate person but helpless mood to the fullest. It is not suitable for Li Sanjian. Shi Tou feels secretly funny in his heart. There are already three beautiful wives and concubines in his family... How can he still be passionate and has no hatred since ancient times?

Perhaps this is true for all the scholars and poets of the Song Dynasty? Shi Tou secretly despised himself.

When Shi Tou thought of this, his face couldn't help but show a funny expression. So when Li Sanjian saw this, he waved his whip and pretended to be angry: "Why are you laughing at?"

"No...what isn't you laughing?" Shitou replied in a hurry.

Although Shitou didn't know much about the rituals of superiors and inferiors, he also knew that the person in front of him could not afford to offend him.

The chief officials of Song Yizhou were equivalent to the governors of Fangzhou officials in southern Liaoning. They all went out with a group of slaves, surrounded by them.

For ordinary people, whether it was the governor of the Song Dynasty or the governor of the Liao Dynasty, they were all great officials.

"Hmph!" Li Sanjian snorted and said to Shitou: "There is nothing to do today, so follow me to Jinjiang County for a walk."

Today, Li Sanjian bid farewell to Xu Tingting. Cai Yingxue wore an ordinary long gown and dressed for ordinary people. At this time, he went to Jinjiang County with Shitou, which can be said to be a "private visit in a private manner".

Li Sanjian likes private visits on a private basis for obvious reasons. In private visits, you can see people or things that you cannot see on weekdays. If you were wearing an official robe, coupled with the rushing of the gongs when you were traveling, then ordinary people would have been scared away long ago.

"As for your order!" Shi Tou was overjoyed, slapped his horse and whipped it, and left Li Sanjian, and ran away without a trace.

Shi Tou had long wanted to appreciate the scenery of Quanzhou, so of course he was extremely happy at this time.

"Hey, hey, wait for me, wait for me." Li Sanjian hurriedly rushed up.

Is he Changsui or me Changsui? Li Sanjian thought to himself with depression.

The riding skills of stone are far above Li Sanjian. When riding a horse, it is like sticking on it. He is extremely familiar with horses. No matter what kind of horse it is, he is obedient in his hands, and there will be no such thing as frightening the horse or slapping the horse.

Li Sanjian became even more convinced that he was a Khitan in the north, because it was extremely rare for Han people to have such riding skills.

Although Li Sanjian was an official of the Song Dynasty, he did not discriminate against him, or regarded him as an alien, whether he was a Xia person, a Khitan person, or even a female direct person.

This is true for people to distinguish between good and bad, no matter which country they are from. Moreover, the good and bad are simply inseparable from bad. Good is hidden from bad, and bad is overflowing from good. Black and white, white and black are relatively common.

At the same time, Li Sanjian's father was a Han Chinese, but his mother was a Li Chinese, so Li Sanjian himself was half a barbarian.

Jinjiang County is not far from Quanzhou City, and you can reach it within an hour of galloping on horseback.

Li Sanjian

Since Quanzhou took office, he has built roads and bridges in various parts of Quanzhou, with the purpose of developing business.

The Quanzhou government encouraged business, so there were many vendors coming and going from all counties in Quanzhou at this time.

At this moment, Li Sanjian and his eldest son walked along the way to Jinjiang County with Shitou. There were pedestrians and vendors all the way, and they were coming and going, which seemed more lively.

"In addition to being able to write and speak, Sinology also needs to be able to use it." Li Sanjian, who was riding with Shi Tou, raised his whip and said to Shi Tou: "Did you see this road and pedestrians? Kong Shengyin, if there are three people walking, there must be my teacher; choose the good ones and follow them, and choose the bad ones and change them. This is the words about action in the Analects of Confucius. The road is long and arduous, and I will search up and down. This is the words about action by Qu Yuan and Qu in the Warring States Period. It is difficult to walk, and there are many misaligned roads. Where is it now? This is done by Li Dazuixian."

"Oh, Li Zhizhou, please slow down, please slow down." Shi Tou scratched his head in panic and asked repeatedly: "Who is Li Dazuixian?"

Shitou was a Khitan, so how could he know the essence of Sinology? There are so many sayings about roads or pedestrians, and the meanings of the major celebrities are different... It makes Shitou incomprehensible.

Shi Tou was so panicked that he took out the paper and pen from his arms, rode on the horse, put it in his mouth with a brush and dripping some saliva, and wrote and painted on the paper.

I don’t know if saliva is ink, can I see it clearly?

"Haha!" Li Sanjian couldn't help but smile and said, "Li Bai, Li Taibai, the great poet of Tang Dynasty, Li Bai's drunken poems, have you never heard of it?"

Shi Tou shook his head and said, "Can you write poems when you are drunk? A villain is drunk but he is unconscious..."

"Li doesn't have such skills either." Li Sanjian couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"The child has a pretty face, what a pity!"

"Hey, but there are already three sons and one daughter in the family. If there are too many, I can't support you. The family will be almost unable to get rid of the problem."

At this moment, there were many people around a stream not far away, and they were sighing and talking.

After Li Sanjian looked at Shi Tou, he rode his horse and walked over slowly.

After getting closer, Li Sanjian turned over and got off the horse, handed the horse to Shi Tou, and walked into the crowd.

I saw a farmer-like man holding a baby girl in his arms. The baby girl was white and tender, wrapped in a torn dress, making a "yaya" sound, and her hands and feet, like lotus roots, were also twisting.

There was a woman who looked like a peasant woman, with a flower cloth wrapped around her head and kneeling on the ground crying.

"The child's father, please consider it again." The peasant woman cried.

"Sanniang, what else are you thinking about?" The farmer sighed in pain: "Today is a good day. The child can be reincarnated and reborn, and can be born in a wealthy family. After today, it is hard to say."

The farmer then made up his mind and put the baby girl in a wooden box. There was still a stone in the wooden box. The wooden box could quickly sink into the water if it entered.

The farmer then looked at the baby girl in the wooden box a few times, made up his mind, and held the wooden box and planned to throw it into the stream.

"Poor child..." the peasant woman knelt on the ground and cried.
