In the dark, Yang Ji remembered what he had written on the piece of straw in the woodshed:
"If you die without food, you will be cooked with five pots. Yang Xuanlan is not the first enemy in my path, and it is definitely not the last enemy. Even if it costs my life, I will never let you
Block my progress."
Yang Ji took a deep breath and then swept down the mountain.
After passing through the crowded city gate and the bustling alleys, Li Ji entered Langya City again. Teahouses and wine shops were waving their flags, creating a lively scene.
The imprint left by the "Langya Battle" more than four months ago has been completely eliminated.
Yang Ji did not go to the post station or the general's mansion. Instead, he first went to the post station where merchants gathered and bought a map of the western frontier of the Han Dynasty.
Territory maps of the Han Dynasty are rarely available for purchase, and most of them are just general maps without much information. It is basically impossible to buy a map of the western frontier on the eastern coast.
It is only possible to buy such impossible things from those merchants.
Traveling merchants travel all over the country, buying and selling here and there. They have many things in their hands that cannot be purchased through regular maps. There are definitely not many border maps like this, but if you look for them, you can definitely get them from these traveling merchants.
arrive.
In this regard, Yang Ji had already had a deep understanding of these merchants when he was in Jin'an City.
"What you see on paper is ultimately shallow, and you know that you have to do it in detail. With this topographic map, at least it can make sense, and it is not just empty talk."
Yang Ji got the topographic map of the western Taishangzhou border and was convinced. He spent another ingot of gold and asked a merchant to tell him about the situation in the western border.
This merchant happened to have been to Taishangzhou for business. Although it was not many, only a few times, it was already very useful to Yang Ji.
Yang Ji listened, took notes, and asked a few questions from time to time. He almost got the news he wanted, and then left.
"Shopkeeper, stay at the hotel."
Yang Ji did not use his real name. After throwing a banknote to the innkeeper, he went to a corner guest room on the second floor.
"The big one is hiding in the city, and the small one is hiding in the wild. Yang Xuanlan may have gotten the news about my coming down the mountain. There is a huge crowd in Langya County. As long as I don't use my real name, I should be able to delay him for a while."
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
Yang Xuanlan must not let Yang Xuanlan know the plans and plans in his heart. In the next few days, Yang Ji kept a particularly low profile. He was not in a hurry to study the border terrain map, but took the historian's recommendation letter
, and then found several great scholars from Langya City.
The historian's status as "Emperor's Master" came into play. After these great scholars read Yang Ji's letter and chatted with him for a few words, Yang Ji finally got what he wanted. (To be continued...)
