MTL - I Built a Territory in Ancient Times-Chapter 15 Festival

. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got into the car, Duan Wang actually asked him to sit down, saying that he was talking with him, and this was the scene of gossip just now.

Now the prince's intention to go out of the city is to walk around and see the villages in his territory, although the prince can inspect his territory at any time. However, this place is no more dangerous than other places outside the city of Liangzhou, not to mention that the foreign bandits have just come to loot. Even if there are no barbarians, some thieves and bandits who take the risk are still extremely vicious.

"My lord, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to go here." Xu Wen advised.

How could Wang Ye, who is so precious and precious, go to a dangerous place in person?

"What's wrong?" Ming Yu smiled, but he understood Xu Wen's concerns. But he didn't intend to change course.

14. Chapter 14

"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and the land outside Liangzhou is not stable." Xu Wen cupped his hands and said as euphemistically as possible.

"This king knows what you mean, but if you are too scared to go out because of thieves near your house, what is the use of this king here?" Ming Yu said with a smile. "What's more, this king is going to inspect his own territory."

"..." Xu Wen had no rebuttal.

Ming Yu took out a map from the drawer on the side, spread it in front of Xu Wen, and asked lightly, "According to Lord Xu's opinion, where should we go first?"

Xu Wen calmed down, his eyes fell on the map, in fact, he didn't need to look at the map, the entire Liangzhou terrain was in his heart. When he was young, he ran around with his father, and later became a sesame official, and even traveled all over Liangzhou.

At this time, he was pondering in his heart. Whether his opinion, the lord, listened to it was the second most important, mainly where did the lord want to go? And what is the purpose of the prince's visit? Just to check out your territory?

For a while, his thoughts went back and forth. Seeing what Ming Yu was looking forward to, Xu Wen bit his teeth and pointed out the village closest to Liangcheng. The closer to Liangcheng, the safer it would be.

Ming Yu glanced at him with a half-smile, but did not embarrass him, nodded and said, "Okay, I will go here today." After that, he ordered to go out.

Xu Wen breathed a sigh of relief. He was still afraid that Duan Wang would not listen to him and would be stubborn. Now it seems that Wang Ye is still very good at talking.

Ming Yu put down the map and talked about the life of the people in Liangzhou. Most of them were talking about Xu Wen, while Ming Yu listened attentively, and occasionally asked a question or two, and Xu Wen answered them one by one.

The carriage was not slow. Near noon, a group of people arrived at the village. Some people watched the convoy from a distance and went back to report. Someone squeezed the **** in his hand, carefully stuck out his head, and asked across the half-person-height earth wall, "Who came from here, where did you come from?"

No wonder they were cautious, they were really badly harmed by barbarians and bandits. They also saw that the convoy didn't look like a foreign bandit or something, so they dared to ask aloud.

Immediately, someone stepped forward a few steps and replied on behalf of Mingyu, "I'm waiting for a merchant from Qingzhou, passing by here, can I rest here?"

This is what Ming Yu has explained long ago, their team is indeed a caravan size, so that it will not arouse suspicion.

Hearing the answer, the villagers were obviously relaxed, and several people gathered together to discuss in whispers. Before discussing the reason, I saw an old man walking out surrounded by a group of people in the village. The old man at the head should have a high status, and the attitude of the villagers respects him.

When the villagers saw the old man, they hurried up to meet him, and one of them whispered what he had just said.

When the old man heard this, he took a closer look at Ming Yu's caravan and saw that it was indeed a caravan, so he stepped forward and said with a smile, "Don't blame me for being neglectful, this old man is the village chief here. You have come from a long way, there is nothing else in the village, you can still invite everyone to drink a bowl of water."

Ming Yu had already got out of the car, and when he heard what the village was saying, he thanked him and let the others rest in place, while he brought Xu Wen and a few guards into the village.

When the villagers saw that only a few of them entered the village, they finally let go of their guard and became enthusiastic about their actions.

"I haven't seen a caravan come over for many years. How did Young Master Ming come to Liangzhou? Liangzhou is not peaceful." Only the caravan is in charge of this Ming Gongzi.

The fact that Young Master Ming's caravan arrived here safely can only mean that Young Master's luck is also better. It is not that no caravan has come to their side before. However, in recent years, the border war between Dayan and Suixi has intensified, and there have been many bandits carrying knives and robbing their homes. Today, the territory of Liangzhou is really a dangerous place, and many businessmen have long stopped coming here.

It is a miracle to see a caravan of this size today. In recent years, there have been frequent wars in the borderlands, and few caravans have come here.

"Hey! I can't do anything about it either. I have a falling out at home, and I have issued a military order. I must make some achievements before I can go back with peace of mind. "Ming Yu spread out his hands and said helplessly in his tone.

Xu Wen's eyes twitched when he heard it, and His Highness's ability to open his eyes and talk nonsense is truly unmatched.

Muramasa seemed to believe what he said, but he had to believe it, this handsome young man was born from a rich family. Young people do things with enthusiasm, and they say that they seek wealth and wealth at risk. I am afraid that they are new born calves and are not afraid of tigers.

"Hey! Young man, this old man persuaded me, it's better to leave this dangerous place in Liangzhou as soon as possible!" After Muzheng finished speaking, he stopped his mouth when he saw that Ming Yu was nodding, but he was obviously very perfunctory. His words are here, and it is up to him whether he listens or not. In short, what other people do is beyond his control.

"Uncle Village Zheng said that Liangzhou is dangerous, but the kid didn't see any danger when he walked all the way." Ming Yu said pretending to be puzzled.

The village is shaking his head, thinking that you are lucky, I heard that a while ago, General Xie of the Red Pao Army went out and killed the intruding barbarians. With General Xie's reputation astounding, the other young people should get the wind and hold their tails. This is why this kid has not met, but no encounter does not mean no.

"You are a foreigner, and you don't know it. There are frequent wars here. There are barbarians breaking into Liangzhou and looting from time to time, and there are bandits going down the mountain to loot. The people suffer greatly. If your caravan comes over, if you encounter these People, life and property must be left behind."

"Is it so serious?" Although Ming Yu was already prepared, he couldn't help frowning when he heard this, pretending to be worried, "Let's not talk about the barbarians, they are extremely vicious, but bandits are more powerful than barbarians. How come the local garrison doesn’t suppress bandits? Let those bandits infest the place?”

Hearing Ming Yu's words, Xu Wen's forehead was in a cold sweat, what does Wang Ye mean? Is it to be blamed? But this is really not to blame for the head of the garrison!

The village is a visionary and wise old man, who explained with a smile: "I can't say that. First, the troops stationed to defend the border troops of the barbarians are already tense, and second, those thieves are really cunning and never commit crimes in one place. , I heard that when the officers and troops came, they would have fled and avoided them, and the officers and troops would always be empty."

Ming Yu understood after thinking for a moment. When the official army is out to suppress bandits, there is always going to be a big commotion. As long as you make a little inquiries, you will know that it is normal to send the letter in advance to avoid it, and let the officers and soldiers be empty.

He remembered the previous invasion of barbarian bandits with only a few hundred people. Their actions were like wind. In a short period of time, several villages were devastated. If it hadn't been for General Xie's red robe army, it would not have been so easy to annihilate them.

"Is there no other way?" Ming Yu rubbed his fingers, frowning even tighter.

Village Zheng shook his head and sighed: "How many people like General Xie are there in Dayan Dynasty?"

Only General Xie could deter Xiao Xiao by going out into action, but General Xie was already busy with his affairs, and he had to deal with the confronting barbarian army, so how could he be distracted by these trivial matters?

A few people went to the village chief's house to sit down and rest. The house where the village chief lived was relatively good in the whole village. However, there were still four walls in the house, and there were few decent tables, chairs and benches. In the main room was a big kang. For people to sit cross-legged.

The juniors in the family who were instructed brought over a few bowls of water, and there were a few children at the door, who were clawing at the door frame to reveal a few small radish heads, thinking that they were descendants of the village's family. They eagerly watched Ming Yu pick up the bowl and took a sip of water, then licked his lips.

Ming Yu was stunned for a moment, and the aftertaste in his mouth was slightly sweet. He wanted to come to the host's house in order to treat the guests without being rude, and even added some precious icing sugar to the water, and these children were all jealous of this water with sugar.

Frosting is just an ordinary thing in the capital, but it is a precious thing here. People here don’t have enough food to eat. Where can they buy useless things like icing, so it’s normal for children to be jealous.

Ming Yu beckoned them to come in, a few children, you look at me, I look at you, and finally came to Ming Yu curiously. Ming Yu took out a delicate purse from his sleeve, grabbed a handful of candied fruit from it, and handed it to them, which Qingping prepared for him this morning. Occasionally, Ming Yu would have some symptoms of low blood sugar when he woke up early, so he always had sweet things like candied fruit on him.

A few children glanced at their grandfather and saw that the grandfather had no objection, so they happily took it over, thanked him, and then ran out laughing.

Muramasa kindly looked at the backs of the children leaving, "Children are ignorant, guests should not take offense."

Ming Yu waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and then continued the previous topic and asked: "I think the living conditions here are difficult, when
