In fact, Chu Xia also felt a little confused about the regional administrative divisions of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

The system of prefectures and counties was a system in the Qin Dynasty, and became a three-level system of prefectures, prefectures and counties in the Han Dynasty.

During the Song Dynasty, the administrative division was divided into three levels: road, state, and county, and the county level no longer existed.

The Yuan Dynasty had a four-level system of province, road, state, and county.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a three-level system of chief envoy, prefecture, and county.

The historical node of the world she traveled to was after the Battle of Yashan, that is, after the Song Dynasty, Ma Xianzhong established the Daxian Dynasty, thus changing history.

But calculating the time, the Daxian Dynasty should be parallel to the Yuan Dynasty, and then the Southern Tang Dynasty should be parallel to the Ming Dynasty.

However, during the Daxian Dynasty, the founding emperor Ma Xianzhong changed the entire country into the same state, prefecture and county system as in the Han Dynasty. She seriously suspected that Ma Xianzhong was a fan of the Han Dynasty.

When it came to the Southern Tang Dynasty, perhaps because they wanted to be different from the previous dynasties, the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Emperor Nanwen, only retained the system of prefectures and counties, removed the prefectures, and strangely changed it to regions.

She read in the "Historical Records of the Southern Tang Dynasty" that the entire Southern Tang Dynasty was divided into seven major regions, namely: Gyeonggi region, Northeastern region, Northwest region, North China region, South China region, Huguang region and Southwest region.

There are a total of thirty-six counties, more than 1,800 counties, and a population of 38 million.

Qingping County and Langya County are adjacent to each other and both belong to the North China region. The two counties have similar area and population, but one is close to the sea and has many hills, while the other is inland and mountainous.

From the perspective of early summer, this county is similar to a province in later generations, and a county is similar to a prefecture-level city in later generations, while a town is similar to a county in later generations. However, the population in this era is small, so a large county only has tens of thousands of people.

That's all.

For example, Niutou Town has only five to six thousand people.

To go to Qingping County, they had to pass through Weicheng County, so the three people put the carriage into the newly bought house. Anyway, there were Xue Ziwen's family of three here, so they didn't have to worry about starving to death for a few days, and then went to find Kang

Zhuang directly purchased three fast horses and then headed straight for Qingping County.

What Chu Xia didn't expect was that Shangjiu's riding skills were better than hers, but Lan Yan was the best rider.

"Shangjiu, who did you learn riding skills from?"

"Mountain, wild horse." Shangjiu showed his big white teeth at Chu Xia.

Chu Xia could only nod. This child was raised by wolves, so he must have lived in the mountains. Isn't it normal to have wild horses on the mountains? This child learned riding skills by riding a wild horse by himself? It's amazing.

Qingping County is inland and the temperature is lower than Weicheng County, but the three people were sweating all over.

There is a fork in the road ahead.

"About fifty miles to the south is Shimei Mountain, and about ten miles to the west is Qingping County." Lan Yan reined in the reins and turned to look at Chu Xia.

"Go to the county seat first and inquire about the situation." Chu Xia pointed to the location of the county seat, "Have a good rest tonight."

So, the three people entered Qingping County.

It's Chinese New Year now, and it's freezing cold, so when it gets dark, there's almost no one on the street.

The three of them went directly to Yunlai Inn. It was Yi Wang's property and it was safe to stay there.

There was only a waiter in the hall, so Lan Yan asked the shopkeeper to come over.

The shopkeeper's surname was Jia, who was slightly fat and looked very prosperous. He walked over with a smile and nodded to several people: "Are you a few guests staying at the hotel?"

Yunlai Inn is mainly for accommodation. It also provides meals, but the taste is average. However, Baiweiju is basically not far away. If you want to stay here and want good food, people here will recommend Baiweiju and go there.

If you want to stay at Baiweiju, people there will also recommend Yunlai Inn.

I have to say that Nan Yichen is quite good at doing business.

Lan Yan took a step forward and showed the token in her hand.

In fact, Nan Yichen also gave Chu Xia a token that symbolized his identity, but the token's identity was too valuable and could not be shown casually.

The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly changed. He hurriedly took the person to the upper room himself. Needless to say, he asked the waiter to bring hot water and even asked a waiter to go to Baiweiju to pack some dishes for delivery.

Came over.

Chu Xia was very satisfied. Shopkeeper Jia was really thoughtful in his work.

"Madam, my name is Jia Wanwan. If you need anything, just ask me. I'm waiting outside." Jia Wanwan respectfully saluted Chu Xia. Although Lan Yan revealed his identity, he could tell.

But Lan Yan was more respectful to this woman with her hair in a woman's bun.

Lenovo received the news from the capital two months ago and roughly guessed that this person should be the future mistress, so he had to be respectful.

It’s just that he can’t figure out why this woman is dressed as a woman. Is this woman already married? Then the prince...

That's all, he'd better not make wild guesses about his master's affairs.

Chu Xia chuckled, the shopkeeper's name was really good.

"Madam, you are laughing. My parents hope that I can earn more money, but my last name is not good enough. No matter how much I earn, it is still fake..." Jia Wanwan spread his hands helplessly.

"Don't worry, fake things can come true. People should have some dreams. What if they come true?"

"Madam is right." Jia Wanwan nodded hurriedly.

"Okay, let me ask you something."

"Excuse me, madam."

"Do you understand the situation in Shimei Mountain?"

Jia Wanwan's brows suddenly frowned: "Shimei Mountain is where the Simei Gang belongs, and the people from the Simei Gang don't do bad things. However, Qingping County has a county government, so they never come.

The people here are doing random things, but Mei Si is very good at kung fu, especially good at hidden weapons. He also has four people with very high kung fu, known as the "Four King Kong". Gangs and gangs have come to attack before, but they didn't get any help.

Cheap……"

Chu Xia nodded: "Has anything happened on Shimei Mountain recently? Happy events and funerals."

"This..." Jia Wanwan pondered for a moment, "It's true. Last month, Water Snake, the fourth leader of the Simei Gang, went to Baiweiju and hosted ten banquets. It was said that a happy event was held on the mountain...

…”

The four kings under Mei Si are: Wood Wolf, Fire Dog, Golden Rat and Water Snake.

This water snake is the only woman.

Early summer:……

What are these names? It would be better to have a blue dragon, a white tiger, a red bird, a basalt and a black tiger than these names. Does it mean that a den of snakes and rats are in trouble?

"If Madam still wants to know more about it, I can ask the shopkeeper Mao from Baiweiju to come over. He personally brought the food and drinks there."
