He is the kind of versatile civil and military man who can lead troops to fight when he mounts his horse, and can govern the country when he dismounts.

This is also a true son of an aristocratic family, proficient in the Six Arts of the Gentleman, and can switch between being a great general and a Zhongshu Ling at will.

When he was young, Gu Heng also led the army. Therefore, he knew the importance of horseshoes very well.

"With this thing, my son will be able to occupy a high position in the Northern Dynasties!"

Maybe I can change my title.

Gu Heng's eyes sparkled with ambition.

Even if his Gu family cannot gain a foothold in the Southern Dynasties, it will never decline.

After going to the Northern Dynasties, he was still able to continue to be prominent with his "war exploits".

That night, a group of knights galloped towards the North Dynasty.

Some of these horses are shoed, some are not!

What Gu Heng wanted was strong contrast visible to the naked eye.

With a clear example in front of him, he didn't need to waste any words in his letter.

…

"Mr. You'an, it's been almost a month, should we set off?"

Zheng Mo endured it again and again, but still couldn't.

On this day, he came to see Gu Heng and reminded him tactfully.

"Okay! Let's set off!"

Gu Heng calculated the distance and readily agreed.

It was spring when I left Beijing. On the road, I stopped and walked, stopped and walked.

It has taken nearly two months.

It's early summer now.

There is still more than half a journey to Luozhou, his place of exile.

If we travel at this pace, it will probably take another two to three months.

By then, it will probably be late summer or early autumn.

Hurricane season should be over too!

Gu Heng was knowledgeable and had served as a Zhongshu Ling for many years, so he knew that there was a very terrifying natural phenomenon along the southern coast - hurricanes.

Every summer, strong winds come from the sea.

The strong wind is so powerful that it can overturn houses and destroy fertile fields.

Towering trees can rise from the ground.

People, livestock, etc. will also be carried by the wind and fly into the sky.

Such strong winds are also called "hurricanes" (typhoons).

Every time hurricane season comes, coastal states and counties are affected by disasters. Many officials are frightened by the power of the weather and have to retreat inland to take shelter.

Gu Heng was not afraid of the miasma in Lingnan, including snakes, insects, rats, and ants, but he also did not want to be blown into the sky by a hurricane.

If you know there is danger, just avoid it!

This is not cowardice, but normal seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.

"Hey! Good!"

Zheng Mo didn't know Gu Heng's plan, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his ancestor finally relaxed.

Just be willing to keep going!

Zheng Mo really couldn't stand this grinding, procrastinating schedule.

However, even though it was said to be "departure", it was still delayed for three days.

First, we need to prepare supplies again.

These days, there are not so many convenience stores and supermarkets as there were in later generations.

Food, medicine, clothing and other daily necessities need to be prepared in advance.

No one knows whether they will encounter a county town or a post station when they are on the road.

If you reach the wilderness and don't have enough things, you can only endure it.

With so many people eating, drinking, and eating, we must be well prepared.

Gu Qingcheng started the large-scale purchasing mode again, sending people to nearby villages, towns, and even counties to buy various things.

Meat, eggs, vegetables, seeds, medicinal materials...

The Gu family was rich, and when they were exiled, they also brought a large cart of copper coins, gold and silver.

Therefore, Gu Qingcheng was not merciless at all when using flowers.

After purchasing enough supplies for two large bullock carts, Gu Qingcheng announced that it was over.

At this moment, the guest girl that Gu Yi gave to Gu Qingcheng also arrived.

Twenty little girls, the eldest is thirteen or fourteen years old, the youngest is seven or eight years old, all are members of the Gu family.

They are the servants of the Gu family and belong to private property.

"Sanniang!"

Twenty little girls knelt respectfully in front of Gu Qingcheng.

Gu Qingcheng glanced at them. Well, they were all respectful, and they were not like timid children.

"Can you read?"

Gu Qingcheng asked softly.

Among them, seven or eight little girls raised their heads and said, "I know a few words!"

Not bad! Gu Qingcheng silently wrote down these literate guest girls.

"What other specialties do you have?"

Gu Qingcheng asked casually.

The little girls reported one by one.

This one says, "Slaves will be red."

The one said, "I have learned cooking skills."

Someone else said, "I learned riding and shooting from my father and brother!"

Know martial arts?

not bad.

Gu Qingcheng focused on writing down this guest girl.

Then when it was the turn of a little girl who looked chubby, she was very hesitant.

After holding it in for a long time, the little girl said sheepishly, "Slave, I'm so good at eating!"

The other little girls couldn't help covering their mouths and snickering.

Even Gu Qingcheng smiled a little.

A big appetite, to put it nicely, is a blessing to be able to eat, but to put it badly, it is a waste of food.

However, does a large appetite mean a large amount of strength?

Gu Qingcheng waved and called the chubby guest girl closer, pointing to the table in front of her, "Can you move?"

The little chubby girl looks about seven or eight years old. According to normal strength, she should be able to push more than ten kilograms of objects.

"able!"

The little chubby girl lifted up the solid wood desk with almost no effort!
