Chapter 286 Encounter

The southern Xinjiang mentioned at this time is not the southern part of Xinjiang south of the Tianshan Mountains, but refers to Lingnan, also known as the land of Baiyue. The so-called Lingnan refers to the south of the Five Ridges, which consists of Yuecheng Ridge, Jieyang Ridge, and Mengzhu Ridge

It is composed of five mountains, Qitian Ridge and Dayu Ridge. It is generally distributed at the junction of Fujian, eastern Guangxi to eastern Guangdong and Hunan and Jiangxi provinces.

Together they form the largest transverse mountain range in the south of the Yangtze River, dividing the two major water bodies of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River, forming a natural barrier that blocks the connection between Lingnan and the Central Plains, making the economy and culture of the Lingnan region far behind that of the Central Plains. In addition, there are many ethnic minorities.

, known as the "barbarian land", also known as the barbarian wilderness.

If Xu Xian could still think of many scenic spots in his previous life, then in this era, people can only think of the miasma of poisonous insects that kill people without blood, or even the mysterious and terrifying witchcraft that drives away corpses.

In the past, Xu Xian definitely didn't believe in these strange stories, but now he knows that there is indeed a lot of ancient witchcraft left there, which is controlled by ordinary people. Even if there is someone who can control poisonous insects and drive away corpses, he can't

It’s not too surprising. In addition, the people there are fierce and do not obey the control of the court. They often proclaim themselves kings, surrender and then surrender, and then surrender again. Because of the deep mountains and dense forests, when Daxia was at its peak, some were beyond the reach of the whip.

The first thing to do in rebellion is, of course, to kill corrupt officials. Regardless of whether you have the ability to plunder money from a place where birds can't shit, you can't escape if you are stabbed by a brother from a minority ethnic group. In addition, there are many reasons such as acclimatization, etc.

Not even one-tenth of the officials sent there made it out alive.

It's not all about dying a good death, but because there is no political achievement if the tax revenue is not raised, and the money cannot be collected, it cannot be sent to higher officials. There is no chance of promotion at all, and others are not willing to go, so you can only spend your whole life somewhere.

In that kind of environment, how many people can survive until they retire and return home?

So when many officials heard that they were assigned to that kind of place, they tried their best to transfer elsewhere. If that didn't work, they would rather resign than go. And many prisoners were assigned to Lingnan, which was equivalent to being sentenced to

Got a life sentence.

Pan Yu said: "The court wants to force you to resign." Once you disobey the court's will, even if you are not punished, at least you will never be hired and your career will be ruined.

Xu Xian said happily: "I have long wanted to resign." In my previous life, I had no money or time, so I could only sigh at the landscape paintings. Now I finally have the opportunity, how can I not go and see them and appreciate them that have not been damaged at all?

The original ecological natural scenery. You can also experience the customs and customs of the ethnic minority brothers. It is really a scenic tour combined with a custom tour.

What? Witchcraft and corpse exorcism, these two items have already been booked in the tour program by him, and they must not be missed.

Pan Yu looked at Xu Xian with a happy face. It didn't look like he had been demoted, but like he had been promoted. No, he was not so happy about being promoted. She knew that she didn't have to worry about him at all, just worry about him.

She was enough, but now she was worried about the upcoming separation.

How could Xu Xian not notice her thoughts? He gently held her waist, held her hand and comforted her: "I will come back to Beijing to see you often."

Pan Yu patted his heart and said, "This is what you said, don't forget it."

"Don't dare. Before that, I'd better help you absorb the golden elixir first." Xu Xian smiled slightly and held her tightly in his arms.

Pan Yu's face turned red and she nodded slightly, "But you'd better go see Princess Yin and ask her to make peace with the queen so as not to be pushed too hard."

"You and I will go together." Xu Xian knew clearly in his heart that Yin Hongxiu and the Empress were close friends. With her help in making peace, the bad impression the Empress had on him due to Taiyin Zhenren could be eliminated.

Although it doesn't really matter to him whether the Queen's impression is good or bad, if it is not handled properly, it will be quite troublesome to be punished by the country's current supreme ruler all day long. He can't break into the palace and punch him.

Blast him to death...

Pan Yu thought about it and said, "It's not good if I go. It's better to let Yan'er accompany you these days. I'm afraid I'll have to stay with Roujia all the time and won't have time to take the elixir." Emperor Jiayu passed away, and all the princes and princesses came to express their condolences.

, this is a necessary etiquette, and Pan Yu, the consort, is also indispensable for his company.

"How is Roujia feeling?" Xu Xian secretly thought. In his opinion, Emperor Jiayu went to heaven to live a good life with Zhenren Taiyin, which was much happier than being an emperor. But in Princess Roujia's eyes, his father was

It was his death, how could he not be sad? It was just that after the emperor passed away, after the bell rang, all the princes and princesses were summoned into the palace, and they could not see her for a while.

Pan Yu said: "Don't worry, I have told her that Your Majesty is safe and sound and comforted her. After all, she is my wife."

Xu Xian smiled and said: "Mingyu is really a good husband who knows how to love his wife."

Pan Yu glared at him and said, "No matter how bad it is, it's still better than someone else." She reached out and pushed him away, "Go quickly, I have to go to the palace."

When Xu Xian found Yun Yan and asked her to accompany him to visit Yin Hongxiu, Yun Yan smiled and said: "Husband, it is better to go alone."

"one person?"

If he wanted to ask again, Yun Yan smiled and pushed him out the door, "Go early and come back early."

Xu Xian thought about it and went to the street to leave some small gifts and ask someone to buy some things before he came to the door.

Xu Xian saw white cloth hanging everywhere on the street to commemorate the funeral of Emperor Jiayu. Many pedestrians had sad faces. This may not necessarily be because they were really sad for the emperor's death. It was because of the seven days after the emperor's death.

, in addition to not being allowed to hold happy events, singing operas, or beating gongs and drums, there is another rule that people are not allowed to show joy on their faces.

Although it is not so strict in reality, even if you really smile, you will not be caught and beheaded. But ordinary people are cautious and do not want to take risks on such small things. And even though Emperor Jiayu has been practicing Taoism for a long time, he has never made any mistakes.

In political affairs, what he did throughout his life can be called a wise monarch. It is not surprising that some people mourn him and feel sad.

Xu Xian sighed in his heart, "What would the people of the world think if they knew that this Mingjun Yingzhu finally exchanged Daxia's energy for a chance of immortality?" Without the cooperation of Emperor Jiayu, Taiyin Master would never have been able to do so.

Maybe he can take the true dragon's energy by force.

However, the concept of this era is "family and world". At most, Emperor Jiayu would feel sorry for his ancestors, but he would not feel that he owed anything to the people of the world. And when an ancestor led him to do this,

At that time, I really didn’t feel any guilt at all.

But no matter who is gone, life still has to go on. The bustle and bustle of downtown Mayor Street is still there, but the vendors all have sullen faces, not daring to greet people with smiles like they used to.

Xu Xian took a fancy to a piece of jewelry with a novel style and came up to ask for the price. Yin Hongxiu was a wealthy woman and she had never seen any rare treasures. No matter how expensive the jewelry was, she might not be interested in it, so she might as well look for it.

Give her some novelties.

At this time, on the other side of the long street, two women were also playing on the street. Although they looked ordinary, their clothes were very gorgeous. They also showed bright smiles from time to time, and regarded the royal majesty as nothing.

One of the women glanced at Xu Xian from a distance and said to the woman next to her: "Sister, this capital is much more interesting than your Huashan." Although she looked ordinary, she had a seductive and enchanting flavor about her, which made the vendors in front of her look at her.

Straightened his eyes.

The woman she called her sister seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile: "That's quite interesting, boss, how do you sell this?" Her demeanor was completely different from that of the enchanting woman, and she seemed noble and inviolable.

The vendor quickly accepted Yinian and quoted a very low price. He had seen all kinds of women in the busy market. In terms of appearance, these two could only be considered middle-class, but they had a strange charm about them.

, the more I look at it, the more I feel that it is otherworldly, easily overshadowing other beauties...

At this time, Xu Xian also stepped forward, pointed at an ornament and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this?"

The merchant quoted the price and asked, "You are Xu Tanhua."

Xu Xiandao: "Do you recognize me?"

The vendor wanted to laugh, but quickly stopped, "In the capital, such heroic men are rare." Xu Xian was taller and taller than ordinary people. He stood out among the crowd, but he was not arrogant at all.

On the contrary, he appears sunny, gentle and elegant, and has a unique charm.

The noble woman looked at Xu Xian with an surprised expression, while the enchanting woman beside her took her arm and walked to the next house.

Xu Xian smiled and said, "That's really a reward." However, he never had the habit of looking at women when walking on the road, so he didn't notice the strangeness of the two women beside him. After asking about the price, he turned around and left.

The two women watched him leave from a distance. The noble woman said solemnly: "Xiaoyue, did you bring me here for an ulterior purpose? How could I meet Xu Xian here?"

Hu Xinyue said with a smile: "How could it be? I specially invited you to visit the capital to apologize to you. I really want to kill Xu Xian, how could I meet him on purpose? I heard that the lotus lantern has the effect of praying, is it possible?

My sister still misses him, which is why we met today."

The Third Holy Mother said angrily: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will leave."

Hu Xinyue said: "I won't tell you. Let's go. After we finish shopping, I will accompany you to Erlang Temple to see your second brother."

San Sheng Sheng said neatly: "If you don't go, he will only use his strength to suppress others. What's there to see?"

Hu Xinyue smiled meaningfully: "It's okay not to go."

The Third Holy Mother refused to be teased in vain and counterattacked: "The wedding you planned a few days ago was ruined by Xu Xian. He pretended to be a farmer called A Niu and snatched you away. I am a professional

I used the lotus lantern to observe the scene that day. I watched it dozens of times, and my stomach hurt from laughing. You are a fox who only teases others, but you never thought you would be teased one day."

—————————————————————————

Today is also the second update. Things are about to happen in the capital. Many lovely characters who have never had a chance to appear finally have the opportunity to show their style. Let’s order some monthly recommended tickets as the appearance fee. Again, try to give everyone a perfect ending.
