Ni Yuanlu bid farewell to a few old friends in Beijing, packed her luggage, and quietly headed south.

There are still chaos in the capital now. The people who have been demoted and pleaded with each other are one after another.

Ni Yuanlu has not received the appointment document so far, and it is not a sin to leave without authorization. But he didn't know that the crown prince has his own eye-to-ear system, and if he cares about anything, he would never escape. Before he could leave Zhengyang Gate, the eunuch who saw him off in the palace had already chased him and sent him a car purchase certificate.

With this paper car purchase certificate, you can buy a four-wheeled carriage at the original price in the north and south Beijings.

Now the ex-factory price of the carriage is nearly ten times the final market price, so even if Ni Yuanlu doesn't buy it, it will be a huge sum of money to go out. However, Zhu Cixuan also knows the habits of Ming people. Ni Yuanlu's most likely move is to frame the voucher and store it to show his favor. If he wants to buy a car, he will go out to buy it at a high price, which is not that much money.

Ni Yuanlu still headed south on an old-fashioned carriage. The canal transportation has not been dredged yet. It was not until Linqing that he could change the canal waterway. However, May this year seemed much hotter than in previous years. At noon, the carriage driver and mules and horses could not rush to the road. Compared with the soft and weak sun in previous years, the sun this year seems to be particularly strong.

Ni Yuanlu in the carriage sat cross-legged, wearing Taoist robe meticulously, but she didn't wear a crown on her head, but she only had a net scarf. Even though he looked at his mouth and nose and was calm, there was still fine sweat oozing out of his forehead and temples. Fortunately, he was thin and if he had changed to a fatter person, he might not be able to stand it.

"Master, let's take a rest in front of you. This mule can't bear it." The old man was driving the car and smoking, hoping to stop and rest on the spot.

Before Ni Yuanlu could reply, she heard the earth rumbling like thunder. He was not panicked. This was the fourth wave of soldiers and horses that had come along.

The old family quickly rushed to the car and stopped, asking the team to leave first.

Ni Yuanlu poked her head out and felt that there was a breeze outside, which was refreshing than in the car. He looked at the cavalry, each with bright armor and eyes without squinting. What was particularly rare was that such a large group of people were rushing to the road, and all the horses were in a uniform position, completely different from the horse army I had seen before: waving in a swarm.

Ni Yuanlu had a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder. When she saw the horse team, she couldn't help but count the heads. She saw five horses in a row, with a total of twenty-three rows. From beginning to end, there were officers and soldiers, all of whom were solemn. There was no arrogance or bloodthirsty look. Each row was on the right head, and there was a flag-holding officer. When crossing Ni Yuanlu's carriage, she had to press the flag. The horse stance naturally slowed down and the flying dust raised was not too high.

Ni Yuanlu subconsciously looked at the front of her car, and indeed she did not play the official card to check the car. She really didn't know why these horse soldiers did this. If anyone among them recognized him, why didn't they get off the horse and meet?

"Tsk tsk. These people were transferred to the north again." The old man sighed: "It is said that the crown prince is too Weixing, so it is true. Otherwise, there would be so many heavenly soldiers and generals."

Ni Yuanlu originally wanted to tell him that the emperor's fate was Ziwei, and the crown prince should be Taiwei, which was not the intention of these two star kings to descend to earth, but then she thought that since the people believed so deeply, it would be useless to say it.

"Let's take a break before."

Ni Yuanlu was covered in dust and felt uncomfortable all over, so she had to find a station to wash and change clothes. His cleanliness was developed since childhood. At that time, not to mention his own body was dirty, even others could not bear to see the dirty body. I remember that in the year of Renzi, Wanli, he went to the garden of Zhang Dai's family and saw someone spitting thick phlegm in the pond, and was swallowed by a carp, so he stopped eating fish.

The old family finally surged up their strength. When the cavalry had passed, they hurriedly rushed forward in their mule carts.

Ni Yuanlu originally wanted to hide back into the car, but she was sweating and was covered in dust, which made her feel so painful. She could only make her mind clear and get out of it. With the wind that caused her driving, she would be more comfortable.

After sitting outside, Ni Yuanlu realized that the official road was beyond recognition. Not only was it rammed earth solid, but it also had no ruts when passing by heavy cars, leaving only two lines of faint earth marks. No wonder it was not a bumpy journey, and it was even able to meditate in the car for meditation and meditation.

The straight official road is lined with farmlands that have been reclaimed this spring, which is not as chaotic as I saw when I entered Beijing a few years ago. They are painted neatly. Although the sun is scorching, there are still people working in the fields. For some reason, some small trees are planted between the fields, which seem to be used to delineate boundaries.

——I really have no official position and are all light. Why didn’t I see such pastoral scenery when I returned to Beijing?

Ni Yuanlu secretly complained about herself, and saw smoke rising from afar, and she was in a trance back to the world of peace in Wanli.

"Grand official, noble master, there is a seat here!"

The mule carts were moving forward and gradually approached the village. It was daylight at this time, and there were many pergolas on both sides of the road. Nearby village women burned some hot water and fed a lot of business trips. This was also a new task after the canal was blocked. Merchants traveling from south to north could only enter Beijing by land, which added many business opportunities.

But now Beizhi is still full of devastation and has not recovered, so there are not many business travelers. If there are two years left, after the canal is dredged, there will not be so many people on land.

The woman was hawking along the street, and was very interested. She shouted a few words and played with her acquaintances in the village, without any sadness.

Ni Yuanlu is a clean person by nature and is almost obsessed with it, so she naturally doesn't want to eat the tea they sell. However, the family members of her hometown can no longer stand waiting for the station ahead, and they become more and more sluggish in the whip.

"Let's sit here first." Ni Yuanlu thought to him and followed him for more than ten years, and tried her best to choose a thatched teahouse, which looked pretty clean.

The old man was like a general amnesty and drove over with a smile.

Ni Yuanlu got out of the car and took a look at the thatched hut first. She saw that the roof was covered with dried yellow reeds, surrounded by reed mats, which could shield the sun and prevent dust. She also used a pine wood as thick as a bowl to make a pillar, with calamus hanging on it, emitting a fragrance, and it immediately became cool when inhaled into the lungs.

"Shopkeeper, get some water to clean with my master." The old man shouted while untiing the mule cart.

A village woman in her thirties quickly ran back from the tea shop next door, and smiled before speaking: "Oh, this foreigner has a good vision! Only my house has a license for the five or seven tea shops here. Anyone in the county needs to check it. The dishes, chopsticks, dishes and rice are the most refreshingly washed."

Ni Yuanlu waited for her family to wipe the bamboo chair before sitting down, putting her hands on her legs naturally, and waiting for her family to wipe the table out.

While working quickly, my hometown said, "You woman is so uneasy. My master is not just a member of the house? My family..."

"Ahem." Ni Yuanlu doesn't play official cards, but doesn't want people to know her identity. How can she reveal her truth from a village woman?

The village woman was only shocked. Seeing that the master and servant did not report to the house, she did not dare to ask more questions. She was just careful in her words, and her previous flamboyant smile also calmed down. She said, "What should the master use? The little woman's dishes are heavy at home, and they are washed clean in the well water. Even two or three kinds of meat are cooked very clean."

"What wine is there?" My hometown family was addicted to alcohol and relied on her seniority to ask directly.

Ni Yuanlu didn't mind him drinking some wine, but now the country has revived, and there are many places where people starved to death. Where did the grain make wine come from?

"Scared, if the county finds someone brewing private wine, they will catch them to build roads," the woman looked frightened and laughed in a low voice, "But there are raw fermented glutinous rice made at home, which is also a very thirst-quenching."

"Take a bucket first." The old man immediately said: "There are clean meat and vegetables, and they are all served."

Seeing that the family was quite powerful, the woman was respectful in front of the main master and stood up to order dishes. It was obvious that the main master was also of great origin. Thinking that the world regarded "官网" as a respectful title, it was already flattering to the heavens. This master was actually taller than the main master, and I don't know what his origin was.

In just a while, the woman gave a soup with three vegetarian and two meats at the back of the shed, and served the best rice to serve. The Ni family stared at it all the way, but in the end he served Ni Yuanlu to eat.

Ni Yuanlu had already scrubbed and drank the fermented rice glutinous rice and became much more energetic. After ate a bite of the dish, he felt that it was salty and light, so he said, "Don't serve you anymore, you can eat it yourself."

My hometown then sat on the table not far away. There were only two vegetarian dishes. I first gulped two large mouthfuls of fermented rice before I started to eat. After about half a cup of tea, Ni Yuanlu had already eaten and used it.

The two plates of meat and vegetables were almost moved, and the remaining dishes and soup were brought to the table of my hometown.

The village woman had never seen the rules of a wealthy family, and she was secretly shocked: It turned out that there were really people who were more particular than the Cao Dahu family!

When it was the turn of money, the village woman naturally knew not to disturb the master who was sitting quietly and resting in peace. She walked to the old man and asked in a low voice: "I can collect food stamps and silver here, but I don't know how to make it convenient for the guests?"

"Can you charge money?"

"Making money...then you have to see." When the village woman heard that her family wanted to make money, she suddenly became slow: "If it is the Shandong money in 18 years, it will be charged. It would be fine to give this meal two hundred yuan."

"So expensive!"

"If you give me a silver, it's only four cents." The village woman hurriedly said, "You also looked at the whole big fat hen, half a duck, vegetables, and bamboo shoots. She used half a pound of the best white rice! Is this fermented rice a bitch? Guest, this is really not expensive."

If the old family had settled the accounts, it would have cost 70 to 80 cents of the money to go down in the early years. It would have been not expensive.

"Oh my dear guest, we have a license, the things are clean and the prices are fair. Hey, look, have people from the county checked again?"

The village woman said, and she pointed in her hand. Sure enough, she saw a young man coming over with the sun and riding a donkey. (To be continued...)
