Fengzhou is the northernmost prefecture of Chen State. After leaving Fengzhou, you can enter Chu State two days before leaving.
When the group set off from the capital on the third day of the third month and arrived in Fengzhou, it was already April 20th.
Although Fengzhou is located on the border, it is bordered by Chu. Chen and Chu have been friendly with each other over the years, and their connections have become closer in the past two years. Therefore, Fengzhou has never been heavily guarded. The court arranged the main forces on the border in the states and prefectures bordering the grasslands.
Looking at the Fengzhou city wall from afar, a feeling of dilapidation came to my face
The rich land of Chen State is in the south of the Yangtze River. The more north the prefectures, the more poor the prefectures, the more officials in Fengzhou, either had poor grades in the imperial examinations and were randomly assigned to a ruined land, or were criminals with some stains on their bodies, and were not dismissed from the level of dismissal and investigation, so they were allowed to waste their old age in such places.
Lu Teng rode forward and said: Lord Tang, Fengzhou has arrived.
The expression on his face was much more serious than before. After leaving Fengzhou, he stayed away from Chen State and never received any assistance from the government. The second half of this trip was the most difficult time.
He Rui walked forward, kept a five-step distance from Tang Ning, and said: Lord Tang, come to the city
Since the frequent incidents of the personnel arranged by King Duan in the mission, He Rui has not dared to get too close to him.
Tang Ning rode on the horse, looked ahead, waved his hand, and said: Enter the city!
Local officials in Fengzhou had already received news that Princess Pingyang's bride-sending team was about to arrive in Fengzhou. The city gate was opened early. Local officials lined up in two rows and stood at the gate to greet them.
When the bride sent to the city gate, the Fengzhou Governor led all the officials of Fengzhou to step forward and bowed: Fengzhou Governor Dong Cunyi, the Fengzhou Governor, welcomed Princess Pingyang with Fengzhou officials. Thank you for your hard work!
Tang Ning rode on the horse, looked at the Fengzhou Governor below, and smiled: Lord Dong, long time no see Ah
He was so familiar with the governor of Fengzhou that he was no longer familiar with him.
Two years ago, when the other party was the governor of Lingzhou and his father-in-law, the Zhong family was in his hands, but he suffered a considerable loss.
Later, due to the assassination of Li Tianlan, Lingzhou officials were collectively punished and demoted to Fengzhou. Speaking of which, he fell from a promising governor of Shangzhou to his current state, and he also had an inseparable relationship with Tang Ning.
But after thinking about it, if it weren't for him forcing Xiaoyi to marry his son, there would be no such thing as throwing a ball to marry later. If Tang Yaoyao hadn't smashed the ball down, Tang Ning would have starved to death on the streets
He actually didn't suffer any losses at the hands of governor Dong, and he couldn't talk about any deep hatred. When he saw him again two years later, he was just a feeling of change in things and people.
The sound in my ears was a little strange, but it seemed that I had heard it somewhere. Dong Cunyi thought he was an early colleague, so he looked up and saw a young man looking down at him on the horse in front of the mission.
This adult... It is natural that people who are aware of their age cannot be his colleague. Dong Cunyi didn't remember where he had seen him for a while. As soon as he spoke, a light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he was shocked: It's you!
As the former governor of Lingzhou, he was still impressed by Jie Yuan, a genius who had not met in Lingzhou for decades. What's more, he still had some grudges with this person and the Zhong family.
Since the Chu envoy was assassinated in Lingzhou and transferred to Fengzhou, there has been no news of Tang Ning again. Unexpectedly, in just two years, when he saw each other, the other party had already sent a bride. Judging from his position in the team, his status must be quite high.
Dong Cunyi felt sour and unspeakable, and was a little nervous. When he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, Tang Ning said: The princess is a little tired after running all the way. Let's go to the city first.
Dong Cunyi immediately nodded and said: The inn has been prepared, the envoy is requested to enter the city...
Although the Fengzhou city gate is dilapidated, the inn is clean and there are not many small inns. In order to ensure peace, only the princess and a few envoys moved in. Others who accompanied him arranged the nearby inns.
After the group entered the inn, Lu Teng arranged for the imperial guards to surround the inn and out. At twelve hours a day, eight hundred people were divided into four groups, each with two hundred people taking turns on patrol.
Before Tang Ning walked into Zhao Man's courtyard, Lu Teng stopped him and said: Lord Tang, after leaving Fengzhou, it may be uneasy along the way. I want to repair Fengzhou for a few days, send someone to explore the road ahead first, and then discuss the route.
Tang Ning nodded and said: Then let me listen to Commander Lu.
Although Lu Teng is ignorant, stubbornness also has the benefits of stubbornness. At least he is particularly concerned about the safety of this trip. This is his professional field. There is no obvious inappropriateness. Tang Ning will not interfere.
Tang Ning walked into Zhao Man's room. She was sitting at the head of the bed, humming a cheerful little song, without any sadness about leaving her homeland.
Seeing Tang Ning coming in, she immediately stood up and said: I heard that the night market in Fengzhou City is very lively, let's go out to have a look at it in the evening.
Fengzhou is neither a political center nor a military center, and there is no curfew policy. As long as you are not idle and have nothing to do, you are still wandering on the streets, the guards patrolling the city will not pay any attention to it.
As long as she was not overly requested, Tang Ning agreed. He nodded and said: Go out tonight
Zhao Man sat obediently in front of the mirror and said: Then you can help me dress up, I like you to help me dress up
……
Fengzhou is located in the north, in mid-April, it will be dark at Wu at night
Lu Teng set up a tent outside the princess's courtyard gate and guarded it himself. When he saw Tang Ning and a palace maid coming out of the princess' courtyard, his eyes stayed for a moment, and then quickly looked away.
As long as he is not with the princess, he will be with whoever he wants
However, this Lord Tang already has two beautiful wives in his family, and he is not sure about the first beauty in the capital. In addition, there are Tang Shui and the violent woman who are on the mission to Chu State, and they can still be with the princess' maid.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He looked at the dark sky, walked out of the tent and said: Add a few more torches...
……
The night market in Fengzhou City is beyond imagination, and in terms of nightlife alone, it is even richer than the capital.
I won’t talk about all kinds of gadgets selling on the street. All major tiled markets are brightly lit, and the shops on the street are silhouetted, and the night markets without curfews are even more lively than the streets during the day.
This changed Tang Ning's initial impression of Fengzhou a little. It may be a little broken here, but it shouldn't be poor. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. If you don't have any ambition to be a general and a minister, it would be pretty good to be a leisurely governor here.
Zhao Man felt that she had eaten, slept and ate along the way. When Chu Guohui was fatter, she didn't eat anything at night and just walked around Tang Ning. As long as she wasn't staying in the inn, she was very happy even if she was wandering around outside.
Zhao Man walked beside him, jumped with his hands behind his back, turned his head to look at him, and asked: How do we come back from Chu?
Before we arrived in Chu, things were not clear yet, and the measures we took were different in the end
If something happened to the prince of Chu, such as choking to death when he was drunk and drinking water, he was hit by a meteorite or assassinated when he went out, the marriage would naturally be invalid. They would come back as they went.
If none of these things happen, you have to come back secretly, and the subsequent things will be more troublesome.
Tang Ning looked at her and asked: If you can't see outsiders again, including your father, after you come back from Chu, are you willing?
Zhao Man looked up at him and asked: Can you see you?
Tang Ning nodded
Zhao Man said indifferently: I am willing
As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd in front suddenly surged. Tang Ning protected Zhao Man and took a few steps back. Hearing a sound of breaking the wind from the front, followed by the man's roar of anger.
Where did the barbarian come from? He actually dared to hit me!
Although the light was not bright, Tang Ning still saw the grassland woman standing on the street with a small red whip.
Unexpectedly, she actually came to Fengzhou, and it seemed that she had gotten into some trouble again
Put this barbarian... The young man standing on the street covered his face and opened his mouth and said, his expression suddenly froze on his face. Looking at the person standing in the crowd, he blurted out: Tang Ning!
Tang Ning led Zhao Man out of the crowd, looked at the young man, thought for a while, and asked: Are you... Dong Mingjun?
The young man finally came to his senses, and the smile on his face gradually became playful, and he said: It's such a coincidence. I didn't expect to see you here again...
