"Woo wow~~~~~ this is Xu Du!" A few days later, a team came to Xudu from Wuyi Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River. The woman at the head looked at the city wall and couldn't help but sigh, "It is worthy of being the capital of the Han Dynasty, it is indeed majestic!" ”

"Hee-......" a pedestrian in the distance smiled, and then hurried away.

"Did I say something wrong?" The woman looked at Cao Hong, who was in charge of leading the way.

"Xu Du is just accompanying the capital, and it was only six years ago. In fact, there are only two real capitals of the Han Dynasty, Luoyang and Chang'an, where the city walls are more majestic than here, and the streets inside are wider than here! Seriously, the current Xudu looks a little narrow, and it is no wonder that he plans to move the capital back to Chang'an in the next two years. Cao Hong explained.

"Accompany the capital?" The woman seemed to have heard this for the first time, "But isn't your emperor here?" ”

"I'm here for a while, and I'm going back to Chang'an in the future. Speaking of which, this time I would like to ask you for help, and when the time comes, on the way to Hanzhong, I will pass by Luoyang and Chang'an, and when the time comes, I can let you have a good experience. Cao Hong replied.

But having said that, Luoyang was burned down by Dong Zhuo, and although the follow-up Duan Xuan came forward to repair some of them, it was still far from being restored to the heyday of the Han Dynasty.

"Then I really want to check it out!" When the woman heard this, she was immediately full of interest.

When they really entered the city, the first feeling of these two thousand people was not excitement or curiosity, but feeling the eyes of the pedestrians around them, and then looking at this unimaginable bustling city, they would subconsciously tighten their clothes.

Inferiority complex, everything here is so tall, even ordinary pedestrians are wearing clean and neat clothes. Compared to these people, the clothes made of linen and animal skins on their bodies looked so crude.

"We ...... Straight into the Royal Palace? The woman came to Cao Hong.

"No, no, let's go to the barracks and settle down for a day of rest before we start to go to the palace to meet Your Majesty. You don't want to make Your Majesty laugh at you all the way, right? Cao Hong said.

"Hmm...... Hmm......" The woman nodded when she heard this, but she felt a sense of relief in her heart.

A quarter of an hour later, they came to the barracks, which was mainly tents, but the environment was good, at least much more comfortable than their scruffy nest.

"Have a good night's rest, the food will be delivered soon." Cao Hong also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had sent someone over, "There will be someone later, who will come to explain to you a little bit, the basic etiquette of meeting His Majesty, and the precautions in the barracks, no problem, right?" ”

"No problem, we're not unreasonable." The woman replied that although the Peng family had lived in Wuyi Mountain for a long time, the ancestor was Peng Zu. Peng Yue's civilization is only a little behind the Central Plains, but it is definitely not the kind of pure barbarianism.

After a while, a man walked in and came to the woman.

"This should be Peng Yue's leader, right? Hello, I'm Wang Yong, the imperial chef of the Han Dynasty, and I'm meeting for the first time! Wang Yong smiled and arched his hand towards the woman.

"Oh, I'm Peng Qi...... Peng Yue's patriarch...... Imperial Chef, you're the chef who cooks food for the Emperor, right? Peng Qi returned the salute and asked.

"Yes, I am the cook in charge of His Majesty's diet. I heard that you are descendants of Peng Zu, and I specially asked to come and visit. After all, for chefs like us, Peng Zu is the real grandfather. Wang Yong said with a smile, "At the same time, some special ingredients may be used in tonight's dishes, I don't know if you have taboos, so come and ask." ”

"Oh, we basically eat everything." Peng Qi nodded, still a little happy in his heart, after all, the Peng family of Wuyi Mountain basically regarded themselves as the descendants of Peng Zu.

"So, snakes and dragons...... Is it also possible to eat it? Wang Yong asked cautiously.

"We eat snakes a lot, after all, there is no shortage of snakes over there. But the dragon ...... Seriously, it's really a cherished ingredient, do you know how to make it? This time, I brought a few chefs from the clan......" Peng Qi looked at Wang Yong with some concern.

"No problem, as long as you don't have any scruples. After all, I've heard that there are some tribes over there that use dragons as totems...... I'm afraid that if there are any taboos, it's not good. Wang Yong hurriedly replied.

"Oh, I didn't expect that here in the Central Plains, there are chefs who can cook dragons, interesting!" Peng Qi is obviously also a person who loves to eat, otherwise he would not have accompanied the army with a few chefs. At this moment, she is curious about eating.

"But before that......" Wang Yong then added, "There are still two hours before dinner time, how about you learn a little new knowledge first?" After all, I have to meet the Han Emperor tomorrow, so it's not good to embarrass the Yue people, right? ”

"Oh, oh...... That's true......" Peng Qi reacted at this time.

"Then, the officials who teach you etiquette will come over soon, and I'll go and prepare dinner first, so stay tuned!" Wang Yong replied, and then said goodbye and left.

After a while, an officer and an official walked in, and the officer mainly explained the rules in the army, in the final analysis, it is not to run around and look around, and not to fight and brawl.

On the side of the officials, the knowledge of the palace taught is mostly concise and easy to understand, in fact, as long as you don't make a lot of noise at the banquet, don't bring weapons in, don't fight and fight, and ignore some details of the problem.

Rao is simple, and it took an hour, after all, to make sure that they have all learned, the officials can go back to the errand.

"Hot water is ready, so you can do whatever you need to wash up." Cao Hong walked in, he had just gone to the palace to restore his life, and he had just turned around at the moment.

"There's hot water, that's great!" Peng Qi was a little excited. And Cao Hong, who followed them all the way, was not surprised. At first, I thought that the Yue people were all washed with cold water, and they were not even cleaned. Who knew that Peng Yue actually strictly adhered to the principle of drinking water only when it is boiled and bathing when it is hot.

I asked, saying that it was passed down by the ancestors, and those who did not follow this rule would be punished by the ancestors.

Thinking of the Jingzhou army in Wulin, Cao Hong also understood that it was estimated that the words of the gods and ghosts were just the excuses of Peng Yue's ancestors. It is also possible that it is the last natural law discovered by living in the Wuyi Mountains all year round.

Peng Yue can live in Jiangnan where all kinds of poisonous insects and poisons, miasma and humidity are filled, and naturally have their way of life.

One hour is enough for these Yue people to clean up. The clothes were also temporarily washed and changed into home clothes. In terms of style, it is similar to the situation of short shirts + hot pants in later generations, and the fabric is relatively small anyway, so it is said that it is convenient for movement.

This is the case with home clothes, where regular clothes are dressed with long pants and short sleeves, while combat clothes are based on regular clothes with an additional layer of leather armor. Ordinary soldiers used leather armor made of ordinary beast skins. Peng Qi and several other leaders were wearing rhinoceros leather armor.

"By the way, when can dinner come?!" After the cleaning was completed, Peng Qi urged a little impatiently.
