Nine hundred and sixty first chapter Tuck Liangzhou
Wei Yi's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, are you back so soon? Hehe."
Zhou Fang guessed what Wei Yi was thinking. It was probably because he didn't go to the plum tasting party at Chengwan Plum Garden. He was still depressed and thought that Zhou Fang and Li Luo failed to pass the test and turned back early.
Zhou Fang smiled softly, nodded and said, "Yes, something happened to the Pinmei Festival this time. Now that it has broken up, we have to take the first step."
"Accident? What happened?" Mao Kong frowned, glanced at Zhou Fang and Li Luo, and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you encounter any danger?"
"Fortunately, it's nothing serious." After Zhou Fang said this, he told a few people about the incident in the Wanmei Garden. It won't be long before the whole Dagan world hears about it, so it's not really a secret.
After everyone heard this, they were all quite sad. It was really sad that a good plum tasting party ended up like this.
After today, I am afraid that there will be no more Pinmei in the world. Wei Yi's regret and disappointment are evident on his face, and he missed this opportunity in vain.
Han Jin sighed, but didn't take it to heart. Hearing the words, he smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, what kind of opportunity did you get when you went to the Plum Blossom Fair this time? You shouldn't come back empty-handed, right?"
"Haha, it can be considered as something gained." After saying that, Wei Yi raised the plum blossom wine in his hand in his eager eyes and said with a smile, "I begged for some high-quality plum blossom wine and plum blossom tea, so I didn't return empty-handed.
"
"Ah!?" Wei Yi looked disappointed and curled his lips, quite disapproving of it. For the last plum tasting party, Zhou Fang ignored the great opportunity and asked for some plum blossom brew and plum blossom tea. It was too much of a waste of natural resources.
Mao Kong glared at Wei Yi, nodded and said: "Don't cover your eyes for vulgar things, that's what you get!"
Wang Xiang patted Wei Yi on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoyi, you should learn from the magnanimity of Hero Zhou."
Wei Yi responded indifferently, then looked at Li Luo and asked curiously: "I wonder what kind of opportunity the master has got?"
"I'm even worse than Brother Zhou. I came back empty-handed." Li Luo and Yan said with a smile.
Wei Yi kept saying "It's a pity", not hiding the regret on his face. Everyone knew his nature, so they laughed it off.
Zhou Fang bowed to Feng Zhenming and Zhu Zhi, handed over the plum blossom brew and plum blossom tea in his hands, and said warmly: "Young Master, I have taken half of the plum blossom brew and plum blossom tea, and I will leave the rest to you.
It’s a waste of time.”
Li Luo shook his head and said with a smile: "This is Brother Zhou's opportunity. I can't accept it shamelessly. Thank you Brother Zhou for your kindness."
Seeing that Li Luo was unwilling, Zhou Fang didn't force it. He pondered for a while, smiled and said: "Well, let's drink these two jars of plum blossom wine ourselves on the way. Let's taste the uniqueness of the wine under the plum trees in Wanmei Garden, but
Sir, please accept these plum blossom teas."
Mao Kong smiled and said: "Young master, don't refuse. The He family also sent some plum blossom tea. If you don't like water and wine, you will definitely want to drink some tea."
Li Luo had no choice but to say thank you and accept the Chuxue Plum Blossom Tea in Zhou Fang's hand.
Zhou Fang looked at Mao Kong and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Mao, has it been calm these past two days?"
"Yeah, not bad."
As soon as Mao Kong finished speaking, Wei Yi rushed to say: "Huh, these Dagan soldiers are really hateful. We just borrowed the inn to rest and were interrogated by them. If the second young master hadn't spent some money, we wouldn't have known.
How can they be in trouble?"
"You talk too much, go out and watch the night!" Mao Kong shouted coldly.
Wei Yi muttered: "That's what it is." Seeing Mao Kong's unkind expression, he reluctantly left the inn to keep watch.
Mao Kong shook his head and sighed: "With Xiaoyi's temper, he will inevitably be offended in the future."
"Haha, Mr. Mao, don't take it to heart, we were not the same when we were his age." Feng Zhenming advised.
"Hey, good nephew, please don't say good things for him. You say he is young, but look at our proprietor, he is about the same age as him. If he could have one-tenth of the son, I wouldn't have to do this.
Don't worry." Mao Kong said sadly.
Li Luo smiled and said: "Senior, this junior is just a junior scholar, it is difficult for me to receive such praise as my senior.
Wei Shaoxia's mental and martial skills are all those of a master. With a little training, it is not difficult to become a great weapon.
Furthermore, senior, don’t call me proprietor, just call me by my name, otherwise it will look awkward.”
"Haha, okay, the gentleman's demeanor is indeed extraordinary, but the etiquette must not be compromised. Zhuge Hehe, what a good name. By the way, shall we take a rest tomorrow before we continue our journey?"
"No need, I've wasted a few days. Let's hit the road tomorrow morning. Brother Zhou, what do you think?"
"No problem, I didn't fight anyone this time. Let's go on our way tomorrow morning."
Everyone chatted for a few words and then went back to rest. As soon as the sky dawned, everyone in the escort agency lit up their escort flags and headed north along the road.
The further north you go, the ice and snow in Beifu have not yet melted. Many mountains, rivers and dense forests are covered with white snow, with silver snakes dancing in the mountains and horses trampling on white rivers.
After noon, under the clear and crisp sky, the white snow reflected a fascinating splendor. It was really beautiful. It was like the scenery of the north. It was heroic and majestic, no less delicate than the beauty south of Zhuocheng.
The mountains in Beifu are different from the mountains south of Zhuocheng. Not to mention the steep mountains and peaks, there are also such high mountains elsewhere in Zhongfu. The difference is that the mountains in Beifu are mostly famous for their strength. Often a mountain range only has ten peaks.
Then there are the rolling ridges, which set off these peaks, majestic and majestic, and have a sense of stability and vastness.
Exiting Zangyun Valley is the boundary of Yinzhou. Passing through Yinzhou along the way is the northernmost end of this road, Yeliang Prefecture in the north.
Yeliang Prefecture is an important place guarded by the Dingbei Army. The Dagan imperial court has stationed nearly 200,000 troops here. The pass is formidable and the military discipline in the barracks is not comparable to that of the Dagan soldiers outside Zangyun Valley. Prince Chun Li Chengye is indeed in Dingbei.
A lot of effort was spent on the military.
All passing merchants and travelers were scrutinized strictly for fear of being suspected of being liaisons with foreign enemies.
Fortunately, the Chang'an Escort Bureau was well prepared, and the Chang'an Escort Bureau's escort flags could often be seen in Yeliang Prefecture, so the officers guarding the gate did not face any difficulties. After checking, they let everyone pass.
It just took a lot of effort to check the escort cars. The property in the four escort cars was hidden from view. If the security guards found it, they might think that they were trying to fund the enemy.
Zhou Fang quietly pulled over the general who was guarding the gate. He didn't know what he said. He only saw the general's expression change slightly. After seeing what Zhou Fang had in his hand, he ordered his soldiers to open the door and let everyone pass, with a look on his face.
Respectfully, there is a huge difference from Yinzhou.
When Wei Yi saw this, he was naturally curious and pestered Zhou Fang with insinuations, wanting to know what methods Zhou Fang used.
Zhou Fang smiled and said nothing, looking enigmatic. Wei Yi saw that Zhou Fang kept his words, so he had no choice but to give up.
