"The Kingdom of Wusun... seems to be more prosperous than when we first came here."
"Within a radius of dozens of miles here, there are many people from the Xia Dynasty, and there are also many people from the Western Regions, including some with bald heads."
"The small town we just passed...many of the pavilions are decorated with the graceful etiquette of the Xia Dynasty."
"After more than half a month, we finally arrived in a big city."
“It’s really far from the Western Regions!”
"..."
A huge envoy moved from Loulan in the Western Region, all the way to the east, in a mighty and mighty manner, attracting attention wherever it passed.
That one represents the flags of different small countries in the Western Region.
The people from the Western Regions all have different accents.
There are also the carts of rare treasures brought to Xianyang.
There were also some beauties from the Western Regions driving with us.
…
Starting from Loulan and traveling thousands of miles eastward, we reach the edge of the Wusun Kingdom, which is thousands of miles long from east to west.
After getting off the carriage and looking around at the open space, Fang Yu couldn't help but feel happy. On the map, this was a bustling place in the western border of Wusun's territory.
Its name is Longle!
It seems to be a translated name.
That's not important.
This is the land of Longle. Many merchants who travel between things stop here. I heard that there is also a huge place for the exchange of goods.
Longle!
The city gate was hundreds of feet away from them.
"Longle!"
"According to the documents from the Qin State, this is a good place for merchants from Xia to travel spontaneously."
"Originally it was just a border garrison in Wusun, but now... Xuanhe City."
"Now around Shenshi, just wander around the city."
"Find a place to rest. According to the itinerary... we will rest here for three days!"
"We will leave again in three days."
"In three days, you come with me to check out the medicinal materials and goods in the city where goods are transported. If there is anything suitable, buy it!"
Duanmu Rong.
The attire is the same as before, with a slight application of powder, the right shades, and an enchanting look.
Spring is getting deeper and the weather here is getting warmer. Even after night falls, it is still a bit cold. It is much better than a month ago or two months ago.
For Longle!
I don’t understand myself.
Qin understood it, and Gai Nie understood it.
There are a lot of relevant documents in Genie's place, and I also have an idea of it, at a glance... the contents above are not any important secrets.
But... it covers almost every aspect of Longle.
Longle!
Wusun!
…
The Qin State is probably eyeing Wusun covetously, and if nothing happens, Wusun will be captured sooner or later, and even the Western Regions will be captured.
When I traveled to the Western Regions in the past, I occasionally heard Gai Nie and Lu Jia talking about how the Qin State's Hexi County would be further expanded.
It will become the three counties of Hexi.
Become the four counties in Hexi!
However, those who have little to do with me are more curious about the place where goods are transported than what Qin has planned.
"Master!"
"Didn't Mr. Gai say... If Master needs any medicinal materials, there are many powerful people here in Qin State, as well as the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce!"
"Now we also have a lot of wealth, and those pearls, jade and gems are valuable."
"They are more skilled in business."
Linghuan and Mo Luo also came down and looked at the place outside Longle City. They kept talking about the medicinal materials... The master kept mentioning them along the way.
After leaving the Western Regions, it will be difficult to obtain medicinal materials from the Western Regions.
Therefore, I want to buy more.
And Mr. Gai also said that there is no need to worry about those things. Tianshui Chamber of Commerce has access to all places in the Western Region and can handle it better.
"If it weren't for you, it wouldn't matter if I were my teacher."
"You... still need to continue to learn."
"Even if it is the same medicinal material, there will be differences."
"It would be even better if new medicinal materials are discovered."
Duan Murong snorted softly, and the little girls... have become lazy now. If you don't want the little girls to learn more.
I won't waste that time.
"Hehe, it turns out that's what it is."
Fang Yu pursed his lips and smiled.
Medicinal materials!
There are countless herbs in the world, and many of them have been recorded in Master's medical classics, but... traveling eastward, another ten or twenty kinds of medicinal materials were added.
They are all compared to the Shennong clan in ancient times.
"Mr. Guy!"
"You are here."
"..."
"..."
While speaking, Mo Luo looked somewhere and raised her hand to greet him happily. It was Mr. Gai Nie. Mr. Gai Nie was very handsome.
very nice!
And the aura of Mr. Gai Nie... up close, it feels very pleasant, and it feels very comfortable to be around Mr. Gai.
Mr. Gainey's voice is also very nice.
"Mo Luo, your eyes are really sharp. Mr. Gai Nie is still a hundred feet away."
He glanced at a little girl with blond hair and blue eyes, and said something funny.
The little girl's thoughts... are hard to hide.
Master didn't say much, so naturally they didn't say much either.
"..."
"Mr. Guy...Mr. Guy is very fast!"
Mo Luo blushed and explained quickly.
"How fast?"
Fang Yu took a step closer and reached out to pull Mo Luo's smooth golden hair. Golden hair... is not uncommon in the Western Regions.
Pure golden hair like Mo Luo's... is rare.
"..."
"Already here."
Mo Luo was a little shy.
"Rong'er!"
"What are you going to do next?"
"The mission is too big and will not enter the city. Now it is choosing a suitable place to station."
"You...you can enter the city."
"There is a Tianshui Restaurant in the city, and I sent someone to reserve a room in advance."
"The Tianshui Chamber of Commerce also has a dedicated manager waiting for you. It will be more convenient to have someone from the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce guide you to the place where goods are transported in the city."
"Fang Yu, the same goes for you three."
Dressed in white, he looks elegant.
Holding a brand new wooden sword, he approached, looked at Master Ronger and his disciples, raised his finger and pointed to the city gate in the distance, and said with a smile what was going to happen next.
The mission headed east from Loulan and stopped along the way. Most of them only lasted for one day, doing some simple rest and recuperation. Now... they have arrived at the Land of Longle.
Three days of rest!
The carriage needs repairing.
Food and clothing needs to be replenished.
Traveling long distances also requires rest.
…
"Thank you Mr. Guy!"
Fang Yu saluted.
"Thank you Mr. Guy!"
Mo Luo and Ling Huan also nodded.
"In the city..."
"You all want to stay outside the city?"
Duan Murong looked at the city of Longle. Compared with the big cities of the Xia Dynasty that she had seen, this city was much simpler and simpler. It was very good in the land west of Hexi.
For such a big city, everything should be well prepared. The accompanying envoys, plus the people from the Qin State, totaled about two thousand people.
Enter the city!
too much.
"If the mission doesn't enter Xianyang, it means it can't be careless!"
Gai Nie nodded.
"Three days, then... let's stay in the city."
Duan Murong had no objection.
Staying in the city will be more convenient for the next thing you do, especially...Gai Nie has already arranged everything.
"Mr. Gai, in three days, we will set off and continue our journey. Will we stop along the way?"
Mo Luo asked shyly.
"..."
"Yes, I will stay if I encounter a prosperous place."
"The country of Wusun is thousands of miles wide from east to west. We will stop about five times along the way."
"After leaving Wusun, we will reach the two counties of Hexi. That is the territory of the empire and will be much more stable. Here in Wusun... there is a mixed crowd."
"There are still some people who do not want the delegation to enter Xianyang. If there is an emergency, they will not stay many times."
"Mo Luo, you grew up in the Western Regions. Take the next three days to visit Longle. This is a brand new world for you."
Moro.
This little girl!
Gai Nie didn't know what to do. The little girl's thoughts... were almost all on her face. She was Rong'er's disciple, and Rong'er didn't...
The little girl's thoughts are still pure and kind.
Over the past few years, I have been staying with Ronger, and I have learned a lot. I have been immersed in the elegance and etiquette of various summers, plus my own elegance of the Western Regions.
If there is a collision, there will be something wonderful.
"Yes, Mr. Guy!"
Mo Luo nodded vigorously.
"..."
Duan Murong said nothing.
Mo Luo is his disciple. He doesn't know what to do about such a thing. The little girl... has a good sense.
He is a disciple whom he taught.
Better than Linghuan, the Lu Jia that Linghuan likes... is not a good person.
It doesn't matter that Mo Luo has a good impression of Gai Nie.
Gai Nie!
I still understand it.
"As you said, is there any danger if the mission is stationed outside the city?"
I looked back at the huge envoys from the Western Regions. They were gathered together and mixed together. There were people from the Qin State walking back and forth.
"Many days ago, some people from the empire came here in Longle."
Ganie whispered.
"You are very considerate."
"Then... our master and apprentice have entered the city first. There seems to be a lot going on here."
People from Qin State have already arrived in advance?
Duan Murong suddenly realized.
"..."
"Mr. Guy!"
"Mr. Gai, something happened at the mission. The envoy from Pishan Kingdom wants to meet with the Imperial Mission!"
Suddenly!
A word floated from nearby, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching from far away. The sound sounded anxious, which attracted Duan Murong and others to look past.
"snort!"
Duan Murong looked at the visitor angrily.
"..."
Ling Huan wanted to say something, and when he heard this, he also glared at someone.
"Mr. Lu, you are here!"
Mo Luo and Fang Yu were much more enthusiastic.
"Pishan Kingdom!"
"What happened to them?"
Genie is amazing.
"I didn't say anything specific. It seems that I want to live in the city."
"What is the specific matter... Mr. Gai will find out when he goes there. They want to speak to the Master!"
"Miss Duanmu!"
"Linghuan, how are you doing on your journey?"
Lu Jia approached and told Gai Nie about the affairs of Pishan Kingdom in the Western Regions.
Immediately, he looked at Duan Murong and others and greeted them with a smile.
"Then let me go over and take a look first."
"Well, Ronger and his disciples are entering the city to go to the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Lu, please send them there for me. Everything has been arranged there."
Gai Nie nodded.
Respond immediately.
But... I remembered what I had just agreed with Ronger, and after a slight hesitation, my eyes fell on Lu Jia, and I bowed my hands.
"Enter the city?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Gai, I'll take care of it."
Lu Jia nodded.
"Rong'er, I'm going over first."
"After handling the mission's affairs, I will check on you."
Gai Nie said a word and did not stay any longer. He took a step forward and disappeared from the spot.
"..."
"What a coincidence...that something happened in Pishan Kingdom?"
"According to your itinerary plan, everything should have been discussed, right?"
Looking at the direction Gai Nie was leaving, Duan Murong's bright and suspicious eyes fell on Lu Jia. Along the way... Lu Jia always tried to get close to him for various reasons.
Now...should this be the case again?
Gai Nie!
Is he involved too?
Not impossible!
Those who are close to vermilion are red, those who are close to ink are black!
It is not a good thing to stay together with someone like Lu Jia for a long time. Fortunately, now that the envoy has entered Xianyang, the chance for the two of them to be together in the future is gone.
"Did Mr. Lu deliberately push away Mr. Gai?"
Fang Yu couldn't help but smile.
"snort!"
Ling Huan looked at someone and couldn't help but curl his lips.
"No!"
"No!"
"Miss Duanmu knew that the incident happened suddenly. People in the Western Regions don't have much etiquette education. Even if some things are agreed in advance, there will be many temporary changes of mind along the way."
"Fortunately, it's nothing big, it's all small things."
"Those who are envoys from the countries in the Western Regions provide good food and drink along the way, but other things are easy to happen."
"Before, my words were useful, but now... it's Mr. Yougai who has come forward."
"Those people..., that's all, let's not mention them anymore."
"Miss Duanmu, Mr. Gai is now going to deal with the affairs of Pishan Kingdom. Then... I will send you all into the city. As for Longle City, I stayed here back then."
"At that time, the city was not very big."
"A few years have passed, and there have been a lot of changes."
Lu Jia quickly defended.
His expression was sincere and full of sincerity.
He looked in the direction of the mission and said deeply.
"..."
"Then let's go!"
Duan Murong didn't bother to argue with Lu Jia, this man was just good at talking.
"please!"
Lu Jia was delighted.
"Miss Fang Yu."
"Phantom!"
"Miss Mo Luo!"
"There are Tianshui restaurants in the city. There are three Tianshui restaurants in the entire Wusun land. One is here, one is in Wusun capital, and there is one in Yumen."
"It's just like the Tianshui Restaurant in Loulan. For the next three days, you can have a good rest in the restaurant. There are many interesting places in the city."
Lu Jia took the initiative to direct the carriages and horses, leading the way. During the gap, the three of them chatted with Fang Yu in high spirits.
"Mr. Lu, Master asked us to stop talking to you."
Mo Luo thinks Mr. Lu is very interesting.
I guess... I probably came here on purpose.
She is still ranked as Senior Sister Linghuan.
Mr. Lu, Senior Sister Linghuan... I can't say certain things myself. In fact... if two people like each other, they will be in a perfect relationship.
Can!
Mr. Lu already has a wife, and his temperament seems hard to say.
Then you need to think about it.
It would be great if Mr. Lu's wife's temperament is the same as Master's. Master's temperament is very good, kind and benevolent.
"Ahem!"
"Miss Duanmu still has some misunderstandings about me, I still have some misunderstandings."
Lu Jia was a little embarrassed. It had been such a long time, but Miss Duanmu still remembered that it shouldn't be the case.
"Misunderstand?"
"What did I misunderstand about you?"
Duan Murong stepped aside, the splendor of the Wusun land was still very different from that of the Zhuxias, although there were traces of the Zhuxias in many places.
"Oh, it's my fault!"
"After returning to Xianyang, I will give an explanation to Miss Duanmu and Linghuan."
Lu Jia was helpless.
I understand what Miss Duanmu is thinking.
I also understand the spiritual thoughts.
I don't want to hurt anyone.
"What explanation?"
"Are you planning to divorce that person?"
"Or are you preparing other methods?"
Duan Murong turned back and glanced at the envoys from the Western Regions. Genie... couldn't see clearly where they were now, and she didn't know whether the urgent matter Lu Jia just said was true or false.
This Confucian disciple!
Along the way...there were not many truthful words spoken.
"..."
"Miss Duanmu, she actually has a very good temper. She knows all kinds of etiquette and won't bully others."
"However... Linghuan has studied medicine with Miss Duanmu for many years. If Linghuan is allowed to stay in the house and adhere to such etiquette, it will be a restraint."
Lu Jia sighed again.
My wife is the kind of woman who abides by etiquette. She is not a daughter of the world. She abides by etiquette very much. Ling Huan... If she enters the mansion, I am afraid that she will not get used to it.
There may also be grievances.
That is also what Miss Duanmu is worried about.
I am also worried about myself.
Therefore, when I return to Xianyang this time, I should tell my wife that I hope to be more tolerant. It should be okay, but I am not sure.
"Who...who is staying in the house?"
Ling Huan couldn't help but hum.
"hey-hey."
"The empire has long-term plans in the land west of Hexi and the Western Regions. I want to make some achievements here. If you are willing, Linghuan, we can stay together in Wusun and the Western Regions in the future."
Lu Jia smiled.
"Where is that person in your family? Don't you just care about it?"
Duanmu Rong was cold.
What is this?
Abandon your wife!
I hate such people the most.
"..."
"In Xianyang, where the family is young, there are many social contacts to entertain, and the wife needs to be in charge."
Lu Jia shook his head.
"Mr. Lu, I think it's good."
"Are you really going to come to Wusun, the land of the Western Regions in the future?"
Fang Yu followed him, thought for a while, and expressed his opinion.
"None of your business!"
Duan Murong interrupted directly.
"Yes, Master!"
Fang Yu covered his mouth with his hands and looked at Lu Jia with curved eyebrows.
From my own point of view, Master actually agrees. He is afraid that Linghuan will be wronged, and he does not want to see Linghuan wronged.
If this is the case, it is better to stay with Master and practice medicine.
"Mr. Lu, you will come to Wusun and the Western Regions in the future. Then... where is Mr. Gai?"
"Is Mr. Guy going to do the same?"
Mo Luo thought of another thing and looked a little anxious.
"..."
Duan Murong frowned slightly, glanced at Lu Jia, and couldn't help but look back. Gai Nie had not told her about that matter.
"Mr. Guy!"
"Haha, Mr. Gai is an important minister of the empire. If he comes to Wusun and the Western Regions again, he will be overqualified."
"As for Mr. Guy's future plans...I can't say."
"Look at His Majesty the First Emperor!"
"Look at Mr. Guy himself!"
Lu Jia waved his hand.
Mr. Gai Nie's identity is like this, Wusun, the plot of the Western Region... It's small. If Mr. Gai comes and comes himself, things may be simpler.
And Mr. Guy will never come again.
Even if it comes again, it will be something else.
Mr. Gai has an indifferent temperament, and he does whatever he wants with fame and fortune. It is possible that Mr. Gai will resign after his trip to Xianyang.
"You stay with Mr. Guy all day long, don't you know?"
Fang Yu was also curious.
"Miss Duanmu doesn't know either?"
Lu Jia looked at one person and asked.
"..., let's go to the city first."
Duan Murong didn't say anything on this topic. In front of her... was the Longle City Gate.
he!
I don’t know about other things, but Cang Can must be solved, and Cang Can’s matter... In more than half a month, there has been news coming through the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce.
Cangzhu established the Demon Sect north of Luoyi, with many disciples and great power.
There are also rumors that Cang Chu is stronger.
Gai Nie!
Although his strength has improved, I don’t know how he compares with Cang Xu!
With Gai Nie's temperament, he must have wanted to go to Cang Cang alone to test his skills and solve it directly... and that was it.
This is not good!
Gui Gu's matter should be resolved by Gui Gu and Gui Gu together.
Wei Zhuang!
He should also contribute, that would be more secure.
"Lu Jia, you Confucians should be able to contact Zilanxuan directly, right?"
Thinking about this, Duan Murong glanced at Lu Jia.
"Purple Lanxuan?"
"Okay, okay!"
"Zhang Liang and Zhang Zifang of Zilanxuan back then are now the third in charge of the Confucian family. There is still some connection between them and Zilanxuan!"
"And Han Fei back then!"
"What do you mean, Miss Duanmu?"
Lu Jia quickly replied in the affirmative.
"After we enter the city later, I will write a letter and you will deliver it to Zilanxuan for me as quickly as possible!"
Duan Murong nodded.
Zilanxuan, I still know a lot about it.
"This is not difficult!"
"The land of Wusun also needs many Confucian disciples."
Lu Jia nodded.
"Um."
Duan Murong did not continue chatting with him.
"..."
Lu Jia smiled, thought for a moment, and moved towards Ling Huan.
