Yang Song left Zhongjing City in the early spring of the eighteenth year of Qiyuan to start his summer trip.

At this time, it has been five years since Yang Xian ascended the throne. His position has long been firm, and everything in the court is on the right track, so there is no problem with Yang Song choosing to leave Beijing at this time.

Although Yang Song said he wanted to visit Xia by himself, besides the two women, the coachman and bodyguard was a young man from Jin Yiwei named Wang Cheng.

Wang Wei, the Jinyiwei commander, was also honored, but he was too old to serve as Yang Song’s bodyguard, so he could only send his son Wang Cheng to replace him.

In addition, there is a dozen of miscellaneous servants who are also responsible for introducing the scenery along the way to Yang Song. The name is Yang Xin, the son of Yang Yi, the Secretary of State Security who was in charge of domestic intelligence.

In the end, there are two maids serving the two women. After all, they are away from home and are so old. There are many inconveniences that need to be dealt with.

When everything was ready, Yang Song, a group of seven, and two carriages, left Zhongjing City and went straight south—their first stop was of course the Apocalypse City within the Guan—this is also their birthplace.

Traveling south along the pipeline, the various landscapes along the way have been introduced by Yang Xin, as if they know all these places well.

Because of the influence of her father and the reading of “Ta Xia Zhiyi” written by Xu Xiake, Yang Xin has been very curious about all parts of Xia Country since she was a child.

When he became an adult, Yang Xin did not choose to go to the examiner, but after finishing college, he chose to pack up and travel through Daxia, opening his own Daxia travel notes.

Later, when Yang Song wanted to visit Daxia, Yang Yi introduced Yang Xin to Yang Song and asked Yang Xin to be a tour guide for Yang Song’s family.

Therefore, Yang Xin can be said to be talking about the most familiar scenery around Zhongjing City. This is his pride. Now he can show it in front of the “great man” Yang Song, and he is even more proud.

“Taishang, one day’s journey ahead will reach Tongbei City, which is the most prosperous city in the south of Guanzhong.” After another day of walking, Yang Xin introduced to Yang Song where they were going to pass.

The term “Tai Shang” is what Yang Song called him by the rest of the people outside. It is a short form of “Tai Shang Huang” and will not reveal his identity. It just sounds like an old Taoist from which Taoist temple came out.

“Xiaoxin, and you guys, you have worked so hard these days, and you still have to accompany us a few old guys.” The old lady in Landu’s early sixties is still so kind, as if the queen’s life in the past few decades is simply Nothing is changed for it.

After Yang Xin heard Lan’s care, he replied flattered: “The eldest lady is serious, and the young one only has these skills. This is a small honor.” The other three young people also said that they should.

Yang Song was accustomed to these things, and his long standing in a high position made him forget these little things, but he still nodded to Yang Xin and the others in affirmation.

Originally, if Yang Song wanted to visit Daxia, it was a very quick way to choose to take the train, but Yang Song wanted to experience the local customs and folk customs of Daxia.

So if you take the train, you will lose a lot of interesting things on the way. This is a bit of a sacrifice. It is better to take a horse-drawn carriage slower.

Anyway, he is not in a hurry now, he can go wherever he goes, swim, take a look, if he feels comfortable staying for a few days is very possible.

After another day of slow journey, after seeing the early spring scenery along Guanzhong Road, Yang Song and his team came to Tongbei City, which Yang Xin said before. This place Yang Song remembers that it used to be the city of a lord. As for the name, it is early. Just forgot.

Yang Song and his entourage arrived in Tongbei City in the evening. After a few decades, the city has no traces of the past, and only the people of Xia Country are left in the city.

Tongbei City also demolished the useless city walls. When entering the city, the group of people were not inspected or questioned, and they entered the city smoothly.

After finding a rather gorgeous hotel to rest for one night, Yang Song took a group of people to the street early the next morning.

Just after eating the breakfast that can be seen everywhere on the street, Yang Xin introduced in time: “Taishang, Madam, because Tongbei City is on the main traffic road, the north is connected to Zhongjing City and the south is connected to all parts of the customs. It can be described as very Prosperous, and among them, the city is the most prosperous.”

“You little brother is really knowledgeable.” When the owner of the breakfast hall heard Yang Xin’s words, he took the conversation and said, “Say we are connected to Beicheng. Although the city is prosperous, there are only a lot of people near Chengbei Railway Station. It.”

After the boss finished speaking, he looked at Yang Song and his party. In Wang Cheng’s wary eyes, he seemed to see something. Isn’t he a person of some identity? He has seen a lot of people like this, so he didn’t say anything. What, just continue to introduce.

“I think some of them are not locals. As this little brother said, there are many old buildings in the city, which are still a bit interesting, but it’s a bustling neighborhood near the train station. People come from morning to night every day. No less than…”

Of course, Yang Xin knows that the most prosperous place in every city is near the railway station, where people come and go without the participation of businesses, but because of this, there are so many people that are a hidden danger to Yang Song and his party’s safety.

Otherwise, Yang Xin wouldn’t just introduce something worth seeing, and there won’t be many other places to wait.

But now the breakfast shop owner’s words clearly aroused the interest of the two women, and only heard Mrs. Juan say: “Husband, let’s go to the place where the boss said, and then how about going to the city?”

Yang Song was also a little interested and nodded and agreed with the boss’s suggestion, and then the group led by Yang Xin towards the train station not far away.

Yang Song and his party originally came from the north. After entering the city last night, they rested in the north of the city. It won’t be long before they arrived near the train station in Tongbei City today, so Yang Song also took a few steps on the street.

Looking at the various shops on the street, ordinary shops such as fruit shops, cloth shops, ready-to-wear shops, shoe shops, and restaurants opened one after another without interruption.

From time to time, you can see gorgeously decorated brocade shops, jewelry shops and other shops that require a certain consumption power, and from time to time customers visit these shops. From this we can see that the city’s economy is still prosperous, at least There will be no fewer rich people.

As she walked, Juan suddenly said, “The breakfast in the shop just now was not bad, Ben…I was in the emperor…Why didn’t you eat it when you were at home?”

Yang Song listened to Juan’s somewhat unnatural words, and cocked the corners of his mouth somewhat dumbfounded, and replied: “It’s not that you haven’t eaten it before, but it’s just a little different in appearance and taste.”

Regarding this point, Lan also looked at it with some doubts and curiosity. No way, Yang Song had to explain: “The Xiaolongbao you ate just now, you all have eaten at home, but you have to look much better, you two. Do you remember the snack that looked like a small flower at home in the morning the other day? That’s it.”

“That’s it.” Lan Hejuan recalled the breakfast on the morning of departure. It seemed that there was a cake that looked like a small chrysanthemum, which was one size bigger than a thumb. It turned out to be Xiaolongbao.

As for the issue of different looks and different tastes, of course the two women want to get it. One is carefully cooked by the royal chef in the palace, and the other is the merchandise sold on the street. Of course, there is a big difference.
