Remember [58] in one second, and provide you with wonderful reading.

In the midsummer of the nineteenth year of Daning Tiancheng, the team that went to the west to welcome relatives left Chang'an.

It was also on this day that there was a war report in southern Xinjiang to the capital, and the admiral of the navy, Zhuang Yong, had already collected the entire territory of the Miao country, and the Nanli country, which was close to the Miao country, sent someone to send a letter to the table, willing to pay tribute to Daning, His Majesty the Emperor of Daning, Longyan Dayue, announced the reward of the three armies, Zhuang Yongjia third-class duke.

The war general Haisha led the army from the country of Ao to the north to attack and seek to stand, breaking the ground for 400 miles, and His Majesty rewarded Haisha as a general from the third grade, and increased the prestige of Yuanyuan.

The Western Regions Tubo State married the princess into Daning, and the Southern Xinjiang Dingqiao State broke the request to make Nanli bow down to the courtiers, and a series of good news came, which made the people of the entire Chang'an City boil, although Daning's victory in foreign wars was taken for granted by the people, but so many good things came together, it was still exciting.

His Majesty personally sent the welcoming procession out of the city gate, and the people knelt down along the street to worship, and the grand occasion was unprecedented.

Although He Xinkui, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has a lower grade than Han Zhaozhi, after all, he is the chief official this time, so everything is headed by him, how can Han Zhaozhi's temperament be competent, he can't wait to be at ease along the way.

Sitting in Daning's second most comfortable carriage and traveling on the road, Han Zhaozhi felt very good, it would be even better if there were fewer people in the carriage, Shen Leng felt that Han Zhaozhi's carriage was comfortable, so he got in, Shen Leng came in, and the tea master naturally came in, and then Meng Changan also came in, although the four people in the carriage were still spacious, but for Han Zhaozhi, of course, it was not as comfortable as lying down.

Han Zhaozhi was playing with a pair of walnuts in his hand, Shen Leng wanted to come over and take a look, the pair of walnuts was already amber, and there was an almost transparent feeling.

"How long has Lord Han been on this walnut plate?"

"One day."

Han Zhaozhi said flatly: "Before leaving Chang'an, I thought that I would have nothing to do on the way out, so I went to the glaze factory and went around, bought a pair casually, and forgot about it when I loaded it, and I only remembered it today." ”

"It is said that those merchants in the Changcun Liuli Factory are asking for a sky-high price, and my lord is afraid that this walnut is worth a lot of money."

"I went in the official uniform of the Imperial Governor's Mansion."

"Oh......"

Shen Leng sighed: "It turns out that there is still this use. ”

He turned out the Qianban iron plate given by Han Zhaozhi and said to the tea master: "When we went to buy vegetables in the villa, the vendor said that he would not be cheaper, so I knew that it would be good to show him the Qianban iron plate." ”

Han Zhaozhi: "If you use it to bargain in the vegetable market, you might as well return it to me." ”

Shen sneered and looked at the pair of walnuts: "This color, it looks like at least there are two old men." ”

Han Zhaozhi: "......"

There is nothing special happening along the way, Gyeonggi Province is not far from Western Xinjiang, Gyeonggi Province walked for more than ten days, after leaving Gyeonggi Province, you will enter Shanbei Province, and then walk for more than ten days to reach the Xijiang Heavy Armor Camp, and you can also see the Xifu Arsenal.

After leaving Chang'an City, I walked all the way to the southwest, and after fourteen days, I entered the land of mountains, and the endless Qinling Mountains were in front of me.

According to the plan, you can get to Qinmen Pass in fifteen days, Qinmen Pass is the gateway to the west of Jinggi Road in Daning, and after Qinmen Pass to the east, it is almost a horse Pingchuan, and the light cavalry only needs seven days to rush to Chang'an City, which is easy to say, but how easy is it to rush over this way? Not to mention that the Xijiang Heavy Armor and the Xifu Arsenal are placed on the border, even if they can come over and enter Qinmen Pass, the Jiazi Battalion in Gyeonggi Province is higher and stronger than the Qinling Mountains.

After going out of Qinmen Pass, you have to walk a long canyon, although the narrowest place can also accommodate more than ten people side by side, but the cliffs on both sides are extremely high, the knife is sharpened and the axe is chiseled, and it is a line of sky to look up.

But this is not the most dangerous place, the Qinling Mountains are winding, there are also a line of wonders in other mountains, but the longest is only three or five miles, out of the Qinmen Pass after this canyon road, known as thirty-six miles of a line of sky, to go out in the canyon through thirty-six miles to be able to go out, but going out does not mean that it is solid, the latter section is the most dangerous journey.

Out of the line of Tianhou road on the side of the cliff, the left is as flat as a knife cut tofu cliff, the right is the cliff, when the road was first built, the state of Chu did not finish repairing for more than 40 years, after the establishment of the country of Daning, it took nearly 30 years to repair, and a mountain road more than 20 miles long was carved out, but if there is no road, it will take more than half a year to go from the west to Chang'an City, and it will be possible to bypass half of the Qinling Mountains.

When Chu Xiu dug this road, it is said that tens of thousands of people died in the past forty years, at first the craftsmen hung on the cliff a little bit of chisel, every day someone accidentally fell down, Ning Xiu died in the second half of the thirty years nearly 4,000 people, someone once said that people now walk on this road, every step represents a person's life.

It's just more than 20 miles, more than 70 years before and after, and more than 10,000 people died here.

The cliff on the left can be hundreds of meters at the highest point and more than 30 meters at the lowest, and the sound of the car crushing the fine gravel on the road seems to be able to penetrate people's heads.

Locals will tell outsiders not to walk here at night, even if the road is not too narrow, it will be dangerous, this road is too evil, and there may be unjust spirits who drag people down as companions.

Shen Leng stopped to watch when they walked here, standing on the right side of the road and looking down, it would make people feel intimidating.

"Back then, it was only under heavy remuneration that people were willing to gamble their lives."

Han Zhaozhi sighed: "It is said that the craftsmen who came here to open the way at that time will sign a five-year life and death contract, five years will not die, not only will they get a large sum of silver, after returning home, how long he lives, how long will his family not have to pay taxes, I heard that there is a group of people who have worked here for 30 years, when they came they were high-spirited young men, and when they went back, they were already gray, and no one knew them when they returned to their hometowns......

He let out a long breath: "If it is not the power of a great power, it cannot be leveled." ”

Several people stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the road and the mountains, and their hearts became heavy.

Han Zhaozhi said: "At the beginning, there were thirteen officials from the Ministry of Industry and Household who supervised the construction of this road, three died here, one was disabled, and the remaining nine people produced two Ministry of Works, one Household Secretary, and one Cabinet Scholar...... After a while, it will be dark, and the team will be on the front line of Tian'an camp, and will walk this halfway road again tomorrow morning. ”

At this time, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl ran over from behind, and when she saw her, everyone was big for a while, this girl was called Li Fan'er, the daughter of Li Chenghe, the king of Lu, the younger sister of Li Xiaoshan, the son of Li Xiaoshan, who had seen her a few times in Chang'an City Shen Leng had seen her a few times but was not familiar with it, who knew that she heard that Shen Leng and Meng Changan were drunk with her eldest brother and then came to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, Meng Changan's cold face She was afraid when she saw it, but Shen Leng was kinder, so she felt that Shen Leng was easy to talk to, and Shen Leng had to take her to sea in the future to make amends to her brother, I don't know where the logic came from.

It's just a spoiled child, and the tea master doesn't bother to care.

It's just that she has been pestering Shen Leng more and more in the past few days, either asking Shen Leng to take her out of the team to hunt, or letting Shen Leng teach her to dance the knife, Shen Leng pushed that Meng Changan's knife skills are better, she went to find it once, Meng Changan really taught her to practice knives seriously, she was afraid of only a stick of incense, her hands were sore, her arms were sore, and she swore never to find Meng Changan again.

Thinking about it, this little girl pestering Shen Leng and Meng Changan is not unrelated to his father, Shen Leng and Meng Changan are both upstarts in the army, less than twenty years old have already been knighted to the fourth grade, as long as the two of them do not die in the next few decades, the court will inevitably be noble, it is a great general, Lu Wang Li Chenghe is such a shrewd person, there is no need to give more instructions, the little girl is the age of worshipping heroes, listen to the story of Shen Leng and Meng Changan a few times and feel that it is a real man.

When the tea master saw Li Fan'er running over, the corner of his mouth hooked: "The little sister who is infatuated with you is here." ”

Shen Leng sighed, and Meng Changan raised his head to look at the sky.

Li Xiaoshan, the son of the world, chased after him, as if he was afraid that the porcelain doll would fall, and stretched his two hands forward: "You run slower, the road is uneven." ”

"Don't worry about it, I'll let Shen Leng support me."

"Men and women don't kiss."

"Then I'll treat myself as a man."

"Don't be so headstrong."

"It's willful, you go and tell your father."

The tea master patted Shen Leng's shoulder: "This is really beautiful, and it is also cute and beautiful, it is a test." ”

Shen Leng's hand fell: "Or I'll kill her?" ”

The tea master snorted: "A gentleman's word? ”

Shen Leng looked at Meng Changan: "It's better for you to take her to practice the knife." ”

Meng Changan was cold and indifferent: "It's okay for me, but she refuses." ”

"Shen Leng!"

Li Fan'er jumped in front of Shen Leng, but subconsciously glanced at the tea master who was half a head taller than her, and then looked at the black mastiff squatting behind the tea master, who had already jumped over, and moved back a few times in small steps: "Take ...... Will you take me to catch grasshoppers? ”

Those big eyes flickered, and they spoke with a little pity.

Shen Leng: "There are snakes in the grass. ”

Li Fan'er's face turned pale, obviously retreating, and after thinking about it, she gritted her teeth: "If you take me, I won't be afraid." ”

Shen Leng: "I still have a military affairs office, Chen Ran, to give you a task, take the county lord's palace down to catch grasshoppers." ”

Chen Ran's face turned white: "I ......"

Shen Leng's hand fell: "Those who violate the order will be killed." ”

It's much more imposing than when he killed Li Fan'er.

Chen Ran didn't say anything, Li Fan'er stomped his foot: "I don't want him to take me, he is not good-looking, you are good-looking." ”

Li Xiaoshan grabbed her: "Don't mess around, General Shen still has important military affairs to deal with, how can I accompany you to play at home, if you want to catch grasshoppers, I will accompany you, go back to the first-line sky canyon, there are many grasses." ”

Chen Ran breathed a long sigh of relief, but the little girl seemed to be tired of seeing her family, compared Chen Ran and Li Xiaoshan, and finally reluctantly said: "Then Team Chen is taking me there, I don't want you to accompany me, you are stupid, last time you asked you to help me catch butterflies, you fell on the horse by yourself." ”

Li Xiaoshan smiled awkwardly: "People have stumbled, horses have stumbled, it's just me who is careless." ”

Shen Leng said solemnly: "Just let Team Chen accompany His Royal Highness the County Lord, Team Chen will be able to catch grasshoppers." ”

Chen Ran lowered his voice and said, "What about brotherhood? ”

Shen Leng was compassionate: "If you don't go to hell, who will go to hell ......"

Li Fan'er turned back step by step: "Then General Shen, I and Team Chen are going to catch grasshoppers first, can you come to me when you are done?" ”

Meng Changan nodded for Shen Leng with a serious face: "Okay." ”

Shen Leng looked at Meng Changan: "What about brotherhood?" ”

Meng Changan turned his head to look at the sky and was compassionate: "If you don't go to hell, who will go to hell." ”

When they were talking, about eight or nine miles away from the team, several black-clothed people stood on one side of the cliff and looked at this side with clairvoyance, and the person at the head lowered his voice and ordered: "The news says that the fifth car belongs to Li Chenghe, the king of Lu, and Li Xiaoshan, the prince of the world, and the fourth black carriage in front is Han Zhaozhi's, Li Xiaoshan can't kill him before he receives the princess of Tubo Kingdom, the target is Han Zhaozhi." ”

There were a few large rocks on the cliff that were crumbling, but they were blocked by wood, and if they fell, the carriage would be shattered.
