After passing Longxi, it does not mean that you will arrive in Chang'an soon.

Although the General of the Cavalry had already cleared the entire Guanzhong and even the roads to Longxi, according to the traffic speed of the Han Dynasty, there was still no way to say that he could go wherever he wanted, but at least he could see some villages and fields that were completely different from Longxi.

A group of people walked slowly, walked around a big bend, passed through a forest, and climbed from one wrinkle to another wrinkle. Suddenly, a large area of ​​cultivated land appeared in front of them. The tiny wheat that had begun to cultivate in small amounts, with a little hopeful relief, stretching from the place in front of them to the distance...

『This…』 Han Guo looked blankly, 『This…』

'It's really the color of the field...' Wei Dan glanced at Han Guo beside him, rode a horse and looked ahead, and chanted, 'There are many crops in the field, and the precepts are all done. I am a tan and a pile of tillage. I have to carry a lot of grains, and I have to plant them and take care of them. I have to carry them to the south. I have to sow hundreds of grains, and my great-grandson is like...'

"Ah?" Han Guo was stunned for a moment, and then shouted from behind, "Uh, what are you talking about?"

Wei Dan smiled and continued to move forward without answering Han Guo's questions.

The queue continued to move forward, and the soldiers at the forefront raised the three-color flags high, and occasionally shook the whistle towers in the distance according to the agreement, sending a safe signal.

Although Guanzhong is generally calm now, it does not mean that you can just ignore anything. As the location of the entire Northwest Development Corporation, it is naturally impossible to be without any security. The closer it is to Guanzhong, the more vigilant it is.

Longxi, which is relatively broad and has a large population, naturally does not pay much attention to small-scale population movements, but in the Three Auxiliary Place, it is completely different. However, the method is that there are more than ten people in the queue, and there are weapons or horses, and they are all under the focus of the sentry towers everywhere. If any unusual actions occur, the fireworks that call the alarm will be ignited immediately. Then the patrols distributed in Guanzhong will be dispatched. Basically, within an hour, they will just arrive at the alarm, and judge whether a second warning is needed based on the situation. Of course, if the second alarm is transmitted, the scale of the entire incident will inevitably expand...

This is also the limitation of the cold weapon era. Although villages and towns don’t have to worry too much about being attacked by a team of more than a dozen people, they are caught by some bandits and Liuke. They don’t need to attack villages and towns at all. They just need to kill some farmers and women in the plowing fields outside, grab some property, steal oxen, etc., which is already a headache.

With early warning, there is time to prepare in advance.

Before the General of the Cavalry arrived in Guanzhong, the defeated soldiers, bandits, and some farmers who could not survive either held on fire or secretly picked up swords and guns and did a business without foundation. It was really in chaos. No one dared to walk alone on the road after General of the Cavalry established a complete inspection system and introduced a large number of retired soldiers to serve as guards from all over the Sanfu, which was considered to have been more thoroughly controlled the chaotic situation of the Sanfu.

And all of this was so new to Han Zuo, including Wei Dan who was not very friendly to him, who was also full of curiosity.

Wei Dan met halfway, and his goal was to go to Chang'an, so the officials at the post station simply arranged them to the same queue, which was easier. Of course, the post station also held positions such as delivering mail and transporting supplies, not only escorting Han Guo and Wei Dan.

This time is no exception. There are two cars behind, and I don’t know what is installed in the car, but there are some guards guarding them anyway.

Han Guo turned his head and said that compared to the supplies in the car, he was more interested in Wei Dan. Unfortunately, Wei Dan was not interested in him, well, interested...

Wei Dan seems to only like writing.

According to Han Guo's observation, it seems that whenever he has free time, Wei Dan will write. Sometimes he writes on the wooden board with water, sometimes he writes on the ground with branches, and sometimes he even doesn't use anything, just writing in the empty space...

Is it interesting to write this way?

Han Guo remembered that he asked Wei Dan this question curiously, and then Wei Dan was like before, just smiled and said nothing.

Han Guo curled his lips.

I thought they were all young men, so I should speak better...

Although Wei Dan had a smile on her face, Han Guo knew that under her smile, she should actually be alienation and contempt.

Han Guo remembered his father, well, strictly speaking, it should be his adoptive father. At that time, his father sat on the mountain with a crutch, looking at the sunset in the sky, saying that he had been trying to make others look down on him all his life and wanted to be a respected big man, but it was not until the old, weak, sick and disabled that it was clear that it was not very important whether others could look down on him or not. It was also not very important whether he was a big man...

At that time, Han asked his father and said, "What is the most important thing?"

His father said, you will understand then.

Han Guo looked up at the sky, and seemed to understand, but he didn't fully understand.

The sun was just right, and the golden light tilted down, covering the slightly undulating Guanzhong land. Even the folds and gullies seemed to be bright. The Wei River and the ditches in the distance were like silver light belts, flowing slowly, extending to the end of their sight.

This is a good weather. Many farmers either use oxen, horses, or even carry rakes on their backs and work hard in the fields. The exposed skin is covered with soil, and sweat rushes the dust on their faces out of the ditch, but they can't walk on the corners of their mouths with satisfaction and hopeful smiles.

This smile is much better than Wei Dan's smile.

It is much better than the smiles on the faces of the Qiang and Hu people Han Guo had seen in Longxi...

Wei Dan said that this was because of the so-called "ritual", which Han Guo could not understand.

"Rule, rules, rules, principles, principles..." At the beginning, when Wei Dan was willing to explain to Han Guo, he said, "The Hu people are wilderness, so they are rude..."

Han Guo thought for a long time, then found Wei Dan and said, "It's not like this..."

Take eating as an example.

Everyone has to eat, whether it is Han or Hu.

The Han people may have the rules for Han people’s banquets, but the Hu people also have their own rules.

Generally, Hu people had bowls and small knives used to cut flesh, but Hu people's slaves did not have bowls and small knives;

Those who sit in the tent eat Hu people with some identities. Ordinary Hu people can only sit in the bonfire outside the tent and cannot enter the tent. As for slaves, they must avoid them far away and cannot eat and drink in front of Hu people with identities.

Hu warriors can eat two portions of food, while ordinary Hu people can only eat one portion. If they are Hu people who hold some important positions, such as scouts or elite guards, they can eat three or four portions;

As for those leaders of the Hu people and nobles, they just eat as much as they want;

There are also places where people like Hu people sit, where noble people are sitting on fur, while ordinary Hu people sit on the ground or on stones. If they are slaves, there is no place to sit on...

All these.

Then Wei Dan looked at Han Guo like a fool, and then, he stopped talking to Han Guo...

What am I saying wrong?

Han Guo couldn't understand.

On the way to Chang'an, I passed by a village. The owner of the village learned their identity and held a banquet to entertain them. Then, wasn't this the same rule?

The first person sitting in the hall is the host and the host and the guest, and then the important accompanying guests on both sides, as well as the host's son. Next are people of various identities. The lower the identity, the more they live outside. As for those ordinary servile farmers, they just act as backgrounds...

Isn’t this what 『ritual” is it?

Han Guo's thoughts were a little confused. It was not until he approached Chang'an that these chaotic things were suppressed by the increasingly prosperous scenes...

When Han Guo saw a place with many houses and vehicles coming and going like flowing water, he couldn't help but ask: "Is this Chang'an? There are so many people..."

"It's so good for the husband to find out that this is Shili Pavilion... It's still ten miles away from Chang'an..." The good-tempered postman replied with a smile, then rushed to the officials beside him to exchange documents. After returning, he still said with a smile, "Two husbands, it's not the old servant's duty from this place. Someone will come to hand over later... Two, okay, wait a little here, don't leave randomly..."

Han Guo looked around and felt that there was endless novelty around him.

Not long after, I heard someone shouting "Shunting" from afar. Suddenly, some people on the street were like birds and beasts, either turning into the house or running away from afar...

『What's coming?』

Han Guo turned around and looked, and the group came slowly. When they arrived at the post station, they got off the horse. One of the guards walked forward and raised his head slightly and shouted, "Where are the people from Longxi?"

The old man at the post station hurried forward, "The youngest one is... This is a list of supplies, please check it... and there are two people..."

The guard glanced at Han Guo and Wei Dan who were standing beside him, then bowed his hand slightly, then took the list and went back to report. Soon after, the middle-aged scholar in the lead came over and met Han Guo Wei Dan, and said, "I am the general's mansion to be the director of Xinpixin George..."

After Xinpi joined Feiqian, he got such a position. Although it was not a very valuable official position, the important thing was that Feiqian was often seen, which was considered a direct staff member. For Xinpi, he was naturally quite satisfied. Because Xinpi understood Feiqian's idea of ​​governing the wanderers in Guanzhong, Feiqian simply asked Xinpi to be responsible for this matter. Then Xinpi also wanted to show off one thing, and because he was from Yingchuan, he had no friendship with the characters in Guanzhong. Naturally, he was selfless, arrested, killed, and punished. Although Feiqian wanted to achieve the effect that Feiqian wanted, Xinpi himself was called "小子". The meaning of his name was quite obvious.

Xinpi didn't care at all, because he knew that only by doing this could he gain the valor of General Cavalry, otherwise what would he do even if he was a good man?

Xinpi means to let Han Guo and Wei Dan take a break here for the time being, and then enter Chang'an City tomorrow. Wei Dan is naturally fine, but when Han Guo heard that the General of the Cavalry was in Chang'an, and it was only about ten miles away, he said that if he could, he would want to see General of the Cavalry today...

Xinpi was a little unhappy at first, but after seeing what Han Guo took out, he changed his mind and asked him to report to the General's Mansion first, and then took Han to the General's Mansion.

Wei Dan looked at the things Han Guo took out and widened her eyes. It was not until Xin Pi walked with Han Guo for a long time before she realized. She quickly asked someone to report the message to her home first, and then she couldn't help but feel a little regretful. "I never thought that this person was actually a marquis..."

That's right, what Han Guo took out was the seal of the marquis of the side.

Although the Han Dynasty's seal system does not have many advanced anti-counterfeiting functions, on the whole, most people dare not fake such things, so Xinpi also believes that Han Guo does not have the courage to fool fake things...

However, the seal of this marquis is Xinfeng marquis!

Xinpi watched Han Guo walk into the general's mansion, and then Huang Xu's subordinates took over. He suddenly felt a little moved, and was stunned for a while, then shook his head and left.

In the lobby of the General's Mansion, Fei Qian stroked the seal and looked at the four seal characters "Xinfeng Hou Seal" on the bottom of the seal, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

"Marquis Xinfeng... what words do you have to say to me?" Fei Qian asked. The Marquis Xinfeng who was talking about was naturally not Han Guo who was worshipped in the hall, but Han Guo's adoptive father, Han Sui, or Han Yue.

Han Guo kowtowed and said, "Father said that his initial thought was just to stand up for the poor people in Xiliang, talk, and change the poverty in Xiliang all the time... But he said that he did not expect that he would forget his original wish later... He said that in order to obtain this marquis, he lost his children, relatives, friends, and everything around him, leaving only such a...a dead thing... He said that he did not want to bring this... to the ground..."

Fei was silent.

Han Yue, who was once famous in Xiliang and traversing Guanzhong, finally put down the seal in his hand and his lifelong obsession, perhaps with regret, perhaps with sadness, perhaps with relief...

"What about you? Do you want this?" Fei Qian asked.

Han Guo kowtowed again and said, "No...I, I just want to learn some skills from the general... My father said, "How much food should you eat? What should you eat, your belly will be broken after eating what you shouldn't eat... Also, what my father hasn't done, I...I want to do it for him... I beg the general to teach the way of civil affairs..."

Fei Qian nodded slightly, "In this way, you can stay in the general's mansion first... read more, ask more, learn more..."

Fei Qian looked at Han passing through the hall and followed the guards to the outer courtyard. He couldn't help but sigh softly: "Friend the yellow bird, stop at the thorn..." Han Yue's departure also seemed to mean that the entire Xiliang turmoil era finally came to an end, but he really paid a lot for the great man who was buried with Dong Zhuo, Han Sui, Li Guo and other generations.

Life is like a journey. When you see something good on the way, you will grab it into your arms, take some on the left and take a little on the right. Later, you will be out of your way, and you may even forget your original wish when you first started on the road...

『Han Wen's appointment...』 Fei Qian looked at the Xinfeng Hou Yin, "You are here to remind me, don't forget my original wish...』
