Feng Yuheng sat in the carriage and lightly lifted the curtain. Snowflakes immediately flowed in with the wind. Even she was so cold that she immediately shrank her neck.
Lu Tongpan glared at her, and Feng Yuheng quickly lowered the curtain. Mrs. Lu is eating dry food. She has spent most of the past two months on the carriage. Even if she stops, she goes directly to the inn to rest. She eats and sleeps all day long. After two months, she has gained a lot of weight. .
Feng Yuheng asked her: "Madam, how long until we can reach Guanzhou?" She hugged her body as she said, "It's so cold."
Mrs. Lu also felt cold, but she was fat and had thick fat, so she didn’t feel it was too much. Finally, after finishing the last bite of snacks and taking a sip of water, he said: "It's almost enough to walk for two more days. It's your first time coming to the northern border, so be careful what you say. The folk customs here are not as fierce as those in the Central Plains. Sometimes you can buy Any bun can start a fight."
Feng Yuheng looked surprised: "Really?"
Facts have proved that it is indeed true.
Two days later, the Lu family's carriage stopped outside Guanzhou City. Feng Yuheng got out of the car first. The driver helped Lu Tongpan down, and then she went to help Mrs. Lu.
Unexpectedly, when Mrs. Lu got off the bus, a roasted sweet potato seller just outside the city gate was putting raw sweet potatoes into the iron stove. One of them fell out without holding it, and rolled right at Mrs. Lu's feet. She didn't see it, so she stepped on it and stumbled, almost falling down. Fortunately, Feng Yuheng and Lu Tongpuan worked together to support her, and she could barely stabilize her body. Mrs. Lu glanced down at the sweet potato, kicked it away, and said casually: "A bunch of unruly people."
Her voice was actually so low that even the driver pulling the horse didn't pay attention, but it fell in the ears of the man who came to pick up the sweet potatoes. In addition, Mrs. Lu kicked his sweet potato with her foot, and the man fell out on the spot. He asked with a northern accent: "Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about? You think I am happy that the sweet potato came here by itself?" ? And you kick it with your feet. This is for people to eat and drink. Are your feet made of gold?"
"You——" Mrs. Lu is an official wife after all. She cannot do this kind of scolding in the street. But just because she couldn't curse herself didn't mean that she didn't have other tricks. She pushed Lu Tongfang forward and whispered: "As a grown man, it's your turn to take the lead and hide behind me." What is it?"
Pan Lu Tong also felt that he should come forward, so he pointed at the sweet potato seller and said sternly: "How brave! A mere commoner dares to block an official car. Even if I beat you to death today, there will be no one to help you." Come forward!"
Feng Yuheng snickered secretly, a mere general judge really thought of herself as a high official. However, the folk customs in this northern land are indeed fierce. The Lu family's carriage is not a good one, but it is definitely not the kind that cannot be picked out from a pile of carriages. A small vendor who can take out food at the city gate is naturally used to seeing people coming and going. He should have the most basic ability to judge big and small households. However, he still dares to talk to Mrs. Lu like this. This is not due to the temperament of the Northlanders. In addition, there are still some other reasons.
As soon as the sweet potato seller saw Lu Tongpan coming forward, his anger immediately shifted. He was not intimidated by the word "Official" at all, but pointed at him contemptuously and said: "The one with the bigger sesame seeds" Broken officials, you have the kindness to show off your power. Take a look at your clothes, and take a look at your carriage. If you ask me, you are at most a sixth-grade official, but you still have no real power. What are you talking about? "
Feng Yuheng almost suffered internal injuries, her eyesight is so accurate!
Lu Tongpan also blushed after being scolded, and then heard the sweet potato seller say again: "Don't even look at where Guanzhou City is. This is the southern gate of the northern border! After passing Guanzhou, go to Going to the north is Songzhou, which is the residence of Duanmu Dutong. At this time of year, there are countless officials from all over the country who come to congratulate Dutong on his birthday. I have seen them all. Who is not better than you? Let me tell you, you kicked my sweet potato, five taels of silver! Give me the money! If you don’t give it, just stay here for me. Counting these days, it’s only a few days away from Da Dutong’s birthday. I really want to take a look. In your hearts, which one is more important is wishing Da Dutong a birthday or these five taels of silver."
Lu Tongpan is completely convinced. The northern border is indeed full of tough people. Are they still being unreasonable? Is there any more royal method?
But he was angry. Just like what the man said, Duanmu Anguo's birthday was only a few days away. If he didn't hurry up, he might be late. What's more, when people talk about this, people coming and going at the city gate are listening. If he continues to struggle with it, he means that he doesn't take most of them seriously, which means that in his heart, Most of them are not worth five taels of silver.
This hat was held well. No matter how reluctant Lu Tongpan was, he still had to take out the money and was able to enter the city smoothly.
There is a rule in Guanzhou. When entering or leaving the city, you must dismount your horse and get off, and then pass the inspection by the gatekeepers before entering. Especially during this period, the aborigines in the three northern provinces must carry their identity tags issued by the government with them when they go out. Those who come from outside to celebrate their birthdays must hand them over before they can enter. In addition, those who come to celebrate their birthdays are also limited to the number of maids and attendants they can bring, and each master is limited to two.
Such rules are much stricter than entering the capital, but people still obey them willingly, because Duanmu Anguo, the emperor of the northern border, can indeed benefit them. Now, Qianzhou is in chaos, and the three northern provinces are the northern gate of Dashun. Duanmu Anguo's status in the eyes of others has been raised several levels in an instant. Even though the third prince has been deposed, people still believe that Emperor Tianwu will not If you touch the Duanmu family, after all, if you touch them, you will touch the foundation of the Northern Territory.
It's just that people don't know that the Duanmu family has been involved for thousands of weeks. The imperial court has known about it for a long time, but it didn't tell the world so as not to cause panic among the people. Duanmu Anguo must also know that his affairs have been exposed, but he still let these officials who came to celebrate his birthday to enter the city, fearing that there would be another article in this.
Feng Yuheng followed the Lu family and entered Guanzhou smoothly. This was his first time in the northern border. There was still snow in the sky, and the snow on the ground did not cover the uppers of his shoes, making them creaky when he stepped on them.
But she didn't show any freshness, and she didn't even have a smile on her face, which really made Mrs. Lu feel guilty. When the three of them got on the carriage and continued on their way to Songzhou, she asked, "Qianqian, you look like you have been to the northern border before?"
Feng Yuheng shook her head, "It never happened."
"Oh, that's not like it." Mrs. Lu's face showed a cautious look, and she said: "People who come to the North for the first time are generally curious about such an icy and snowy world. Why am I looking at it?" Are you so ordinary and nothing new at all?"
Feng Yuheng sighed softly, "It should be novel, but this heavy snow reminds me of the winter disaster in the capital last winter. Many people died. It was so scary."
She looked sad when she spoke, which immediately brought the thoughts of the Lu family and his wife back to last winter. That winter disaster affected almost the entire northern region, and Xiaozhou was not immune. Feng Yuheng said this, which finally dispelled Mrs. Lu's doubts. She nodded and said: "Yes! That winter disaster was really terrible. The snow in Xiaozhou City was up to the waist. I have never seen it before. Such heavy snow has never happened before, even in the north."
As soon as the topic became serious, people stopped talking, which was exactly what Feng Yuheng wanted. Just half-lean on the carriage in a daze. But she seemed to be in a daze, but her mind was constantly running, thinking about everything she might encounter after arriving in Songzhou.
The carriage traveled for another five days and finally arrived in Songzhou.
Compared with Guanzhou, the city gate here has stricter regulations. Even outsiders have to register in writing, and even suspicious people are required to provide proof of household registration.
Mrs. Lu patted her forehead and said to Feng Yuheng: "I really forgot to ask them for your household registration when I bought you."
Feng Yuheng also said with a bitter look on his face: "Even if you want it, you probably won't. It's impossible for the young master to take those things with him when he goes out. After all, no one within the scope of Hetian Mansion has the ability to cause trouble for him."
Mrs. Lu felt that what she said was reasonable, so she nodded and said, "It doesn't matter, we are also relatives of the Duanmu family after all, and we have not been subject to too much interrogation in the past years."
Facts have proved that Mrs. Lu was right. As soon as the gatekeepers saw the name sticker handed over by the Lu family, they immediately assigned a person to take them to the designated inn to rest.
Mrs. Lu raised her head high when she entered the city, very proud and proud, as if she would be superior to others here.
Finally, the guide stopped in front of a three-story inn, pointed inside and said to Madam Lu: "This is the resting place specially prepared by Lord Tutong for colleagues who came to celebrate their birthdays. Madam, please move over." , there is an upper room specially reserved for you and Lord Tongpan."
At this point, Mrs. Lu's status is naturally much stronger than that of Lu Tongpan, so much so that the servants only watch her speak, and Lu Tongpan has completely become a subordinate. He did not give in, and honestly followed his wife into the inn, and was led to the upper room by the waiter.
The upper room has two rooms, inside and outside. The master sleeps inside, and the servants who keep watch naturally sleep outside. Feng Yuheng hurriedly carried her luggage outside, then helped Mrs. Lu sit down, and while pouring tea for her, she said happily: "Everyone has said that when it comes to the northern boundary, even the third-rank officials in Beijing are inferior to others. In the past, in When he was in Feng Mansion, the master said that even if he came to the northern realm, he would have to wait for Duanmu Duanmu to summon him before he could meet her. But this servant just saw that the servants here were so polite to Madam, and wanted to come to Madam He is also a person who can speak here. It is a great honor for me to be with my lady."
Mrs. Lu was praised to the point and immediately laughed, "That's right, although I am a branch of the Duanmu family, I have been running to the north in recent years, so I am naturally much closer to my family." She said as she said At the same time, he glanced at Lu Tongpan again and said: "What's more, isn't there a concubine who has married over? Although I have no blood relationship, after all, I am also a member of the Lu family, and I have to pay more or less. It's a bit of face. Master," she turned to Lu Tongpan and said, "I'll go back and ask someone about that girl's current situation. When we come this time, we must meet her."
Lu Tongpian nodded, "That's natural, otherwise it would be meaningless to send her here." As he spoke, he stood up, walked to the window and looked outside. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it. At first glance, he said "yeah", then turned around and said to Mrs. Lu: "Madam, something is wrong outside!"
