A horse team slowly walked out of the town. The people who saw them off were persuaded by the elders to go back after the noisy morning. The only ones who followed the horse team outside the town were Qian Wubing and his group.
Zhu Yunniang was riding on the horse, and Qian Wubing was holding her horse, walking slowly while saying something to her. Behind them, there were camels and horses. The one riding the horse was Mingren, and the one riding the camel,
They are Li people, with clear distinctions between Jing and Wei. There are also camels with or without people on them, which are carrying the goods that the Li people will bring to the capital.
Grisha's intelligence made Zhu Yunniang a little excited. In just over a month, she was able to understand most of what she said, and she could also speak a few words in a decent manner. In her opinion, this
Of course, it’s because I am a good teacher and my students are not stupid.
Of course she didn't know that although Grisha was not as good as her, the time she had been exposed to this great truth was not as long as she imagined. From the time she set out for the Holy Roman Empire, Grisha had been under Lufa's teachings.
I am learning this language next time. In terms of writing, she may not be able to get started yet, but I still have no problem communicating with her in Ming dialect.
In fact, most of the teams selected by the Li people to go to Beijing for an audience are people who can speak a few words of Ming Dynasty. At this time, it would be inappropriate for Grisha to continue to pretend that she does not know how to join this team.
.
When Zhu Yunniang and Qian Wubing were not on guard against her, she had actually already understood everything she wanted to know. Even now that she knew she could understand, Qian Wubing would not be able to talk to Zhu Yunniang again.
It no longer makes much sense to avoid her.
The team of more than thirty people set off on such a sunny morning. Zhu Yunniang somewhat underestimated these Li people. The gifts these Li people prepared for the Ming Emperor were really good, just the camels.
The gold and silver utensils and crystal utensils were so dazzling that she couldn't keep her eyes open, not to mention all the strange things that she had never seen before, but she knew they were treasures at a glance.
These are the treasures of the Holy Roman Empire royal family. Zhu Yunniang has naturally never seen them, but Qian Wubing has seen them, and the things he has seen are more exquisite and complete than the ones in front of him.
Take the crystal as an example. He knew that it was not crystal at all. Although those things looked crystal clear, there was actually not much difference between this thing and Ming Dynasty's colored glaze. The only difference was that one was turbid and the other was turbid.
Crystal clear; one has a dull style, and the other has various shapes.
He also knew that many years later, these things would not be called colored glaze or crystal, but would be called glass.
In his dream, he was not surprised by doors, windows and roofs made of glass. He really didn't pay attention to this thing in front of him. Of course, when he saw it for the first time, he was still pretending
Like Zhu Yunniang, he opened his mouth wide and exclaimed "Oh eh!" But who knew that the surprise on his face was not because of these utensils, but because he saw this thing that could match his dream
Something related.
And the golden shell of the tower clock with only the hour hand gave him a sense of intimacy. He was used to using the corona and the clepsydra to keep time. When he saw such a tower clock, he had the urge to immediately use it.
I have the urge to keep things as my own. With this thing, I can save a lot of time in timing.
These were all brought by the Li people from their place of origin after traveling thousands of miles away. He already knew where the Li people came from. He only knew that they came from a huge and rich country that never regarded them as its own people.
He had never heard those Li people say that there were such rare and exquisite things in that country.
Of course the Li people would not say that these were brought by Grisha and are treasures of the royal family. To be precise, these are not things from their Li tribe at all.
"This is my letter. You go to Anhua first, and then give my letter to Mr. Yang. The rest will be arranged by Mr. Yang. The local officials along the way should have been informed. There should be no surprises on the way.
What trouble will there be!"
Qian Wubing called the letter in his hand to Zhu Yunniang and pointed out to her in detail which one was given to Yang Yiqing and which one was sent home.
"Yes!" Zhu Yunniang nodded. This time she went back, she felt much more at ease than when she came here.
"Listen more to Sister Hong. Sister Hong will not harm you no matter who harms you. This Luo Baihu is a member of my Jinyiwei. This time I will go back with you to report on my work. If there is any trouble that cannot be solved on the way, let him
Go and do it, Dai Wangfu’s face may not necessarily be useful in the local area, Jin Yiwei’s signboard can still bluff people!”
Qian Wubing held the horse and talked nonchalantly. The doorman not far away looked at the two of them slightly, with a smile on his lips. This situation was not like a husband reluctant to leave his little daughter-in-law who returned to her parents' home.
Behind them, Grisha was riding a tall horse, and she was also looking at the two people in front of her. They were more than a mile away from the town, and Qian Wubing was reluctant to look back. According to her temperament, at this time
, she wished she could hurry up and hit the road immediately. If she got on the road earlier, she could meet the emperor of Ming Dynasty earlier.
"Okay, okay!" Zhu Yunniang felt a little shy when she felt the slightly smiling eyes around her: "Sister Hong and I weren't here when we came. There are so many people here, and even more
Don’t worry, I’ve remembered everything you said!”
"Okay, I've sent you thousands of miles away, but I'll have to say goodbye in the end!" Qian Wubing laughed. Zhu Yunniang's age made it easy for people to look down on her, which was probably the reason why he was worried.
He stood still: "Then I wish you all a safe journey!"
She said, "Okay, okay, I don't need Qian Wubing to give it away anymore." While riding on the horse, Zhu Yunniang couldn't help but look back frequently, until the figures of Qian Wubing and others became smaller and smaller behind her, and finally turned into a group of people looking at each other.
There were unclear little black spots, so she turned around and blinked her big, somewhat unfamiliar eyes vigorously. At this time, she seemed to understand why there were so many words describing parting in the ancient poems. It turned out that this parting was
The taste is really not that pleasant!
The sorrow of separation gradually becomes infinite, the distance is endless like spring water! Is this the feeling of separation sorrow? My heart is empty and my nose is sour?
"Are you okay, Yun Niang?"
"It's okay!" She raised her head and saw Kan Menhong looking at her with some concern. She pursed her lips and smiled, "The wind was a bit strong, and there was sand in her eyes!"
The gatekeeper nodded and rode aside.
"Yunniang, Yunniang!" Grisha rushed over from behind and smiled at her with blinking eyes: "Qian seems to be reluctant to let you leave!"
"Nonsense!" Zhu Yunniang's face turned slightly red, and she swung the riding crop towards Grisha's mount. The horse was in pain and ran suddenly. When she saw Grisha hugging the horse's neck and yelling, Zhu Yun
My mother giggled, grabbed the horse's belly, and followed.
The camel bells rang, carrying the charm far away in the wind, and the horse team slowly picked up speed under the sun.
