Spring and autumn

From Chu Jinghua to Qi Gongdu, although the official road is smooth and smooth, the one-way journey of [-] miles for twelve days cannot be reduced by a single day.Although the team had already packed lightly in order to catch up with the time, the team did not dare to really speed up. On the sixth day after driving out of Jinghua, Jin Guang's old illness relapsed.

"Fortunately, I brought this stove according to the princess's instructions. The more you go to the border, the more desolate it will be. I'm afraid that you won't even be able to find a pharmacy if you get sick." Mi Chun controlled the balance and patiently lit the incense burner, and smoked a little medicine The incense, holding the stove, approached, and the soothing fragrance gradually permeated the entire carriage, "This disease is always good and bad. When you arrive in Gongdu, you should find a famous doctor from the country to take a good look."

Mi Chun was glad that she had the foresight to add the modified van to the convoy.Before that, Jin Guang stubbornly insisted on taking the curtain car with him, saying that he didn’t want to be cut off from the lovely spring scenery by the car, and the young man just wanted to stand in front of the car in a chic way. Gotta burn.

"You still believe in famous doctors? They can't even cure their own emperor." Jin Guang reproached weakly, but obediently shrank back under the blanket under Mi Chun's stare.

The body that had just subsided from the fever was straight and weak, and although it was more comfortable to lie down, he was still irritated by the bumps that could not be completely eliminated. Jin Guang closed his eyes and tried to restrain his dizziness, but the sound of rain hitting the carriage became more and more obvious.It seems that it has been raining since I moved into this van, but it has changed from the usual drizzle to the current tick-tick, and it seems to be getting bigger and bigger.

Really unable to sleep, Jin Guang opened his eyes and looked at Mi Chun's slightly worried expression, and asked with concern, "Where are you going?"

"Needing State." Mi Chun replied casually, "It's still within the territory of Chu State. Only by bypassing Zhenhu Lake can we enter Qi State's Jianzhou."

Thinking about the road map he had seen before, Jin Guang suddenly remembered something and asked again: "I heard that there is not even a pass between Qi and Chu?"

"Well, the Zhen Lake is the boundary here, and the other boundaries are mountains, rivers, or rivers, all of which are formed naturally." Seemingly agreeing with this division method, Mi Chun laughed as she spoke, "Connecting Zhen Between the lake and the ocean is the Zhen River. The Zhen River flows north-south in this area. The river hits the east bank. Over time, the territory of the Qi State on the east bank becomes smaller and smaller, and the territory of the Chu State on the west bank becomes larger and larger. The country has never had any disputes because of this, and the Zhen River is still used as the boundary, and no one will say who is taking advantage."

"That's great! In fact, think about how many years it takes for the changes in the mountains and rivers to have a significant effect. The world is not long, so why bother to work hard for a little profit?" Jin Guang sighed, and a white light suddenly flashed outside the carriage, shaking He blinked his eyes, and said worriedly with the ensuing rumbling thunder, "It's thundering, and the rain may not stop for a while."

"I can't help it. There's no place in front of the village, no store in the back, and there's not even a post house, so I have to bite the bullet and continue walking." Mi Chunzao was more worried than Jin Guang, not only worried about the convoy, but also worried that he didn't know what to worry about. The patient said, "If you persist for another half an hour, you will arrive at the Xuzhou post..."

The voice was lost in the sound of the heavy rain, and as the carriage stopped suddenly, Mi Chun couldn't control the inertia and leaned forward. She hurriedly reached out to support the carriage, stabilized her body, opened a corner of the curtain and asked the driver: "What's the matter?" What's going on?"

"Sir." The driver called him as instructed, "A car in front got stuck in the mud on the side of the road. It must have slipped. The whole car turned sideways, and we can't get through it for the time being."

Misfortunes never come singly, Mi Chun opened the curtain even more, and caught a glimpse of the car in front of her car.The people over there tried hard to lift the car out, but the wheels were deeply stuck in the mud and it was impossible to get out.It seemed that this obstacle could not be overcome for a while, and looking back at Jin Guang whose face was flushed and seemed to be on fire again, Mi Chun jumped out of the car with a sudden heart.

"Sir?" Seeing him getting out of the car in the rain, the driver was a little surprised.

"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you come to help?" The heavy rain hit his body, and the robe was soaked in an instant. Mi Chun greeted the followers, took a free seat at random, and helped lift the car.

Beside him was a big, strong man, and he was very surprised to see Mi Chun coming to help. He had to growl in the heavy rain, and he was very angry: "I'm so sorry to cause you trouble!"

Mi Chungang used all his strength, but the frame did not move at all, so he sighed and said, "Has it been raining for many days in Xuzhou, and it has sunk so deep?"

"Yeah, they say spring rain is as expensive as oil. I don't know what kind of weather this year is. It has been raining continuously for three days! We are a caravan traveling between Qi and Chu. Let's go at this time!" The big man seemed to be the leader of the caravan, but he was talkative, and his tone was full of remorse, "We decided to start from the Xuzhou post station an hour ago, who knows Halfway here, the rain seemed to be pouring harder and harder, and the car got stuck..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the people around the frame had already shouted. The big man kept quiet and tried hard. He didn't have much hope at first, but who would have thought that this force would actually lift the frame up? up.Not daring to slack off in the surprise, everyone quickly moved the car to the main road together.The servants of the caravan hurriedly packed up their cars and drove, while Mi Chun's servants returned to their respective positions, and someone hurriedly took an umbrella to cover him.

"Thank you so much!" The big man was almost drenched, but his face was filled with joy.

"They are all passers-by, and it is their duty to help in times of difficulty." Mi Chun stood under the umbrella and looked up, "I'm afraid the rain will stop, it will be late, and there is still a day's journey west to Kunzhou. Mister, why don't you turn back here and go to the Xuzhou Station with us to rest."

"I have already caused you trouble, but I still have to arrange a place for us, it's really..." The big man Yuanyuan's face was full of guilt, and he seemed to be an extremely honest and honest person.

"It's said to be a fellow traveler. Since I met him, I have to help to the end. How can I give up halfway?" Mi Chun insisted, looking over the big man to the muddy frame behind him, and then Considerately, he further invited, "I think your car may not be able to accommodate people. There are not many of you, and our car can still accommodate people. Why don't we go together."

"What's so funny..."

The big man still wanted to evade, but Mi Chun had already turned around with a smile, knowing that this kind of favor was destined, so he made arrangements halfway and halfway.The caravan quickly dispersed into Mi Chun's convoy, leaving only the royals following behind with an empty car. There was really no space left. Considering that the big man was the leader, Mi Chun invited him into the van.

"The compartment is so small, I'm sorry, sir."

To put it bluntly, in fact, there is no problem with four people sitting in this carriage, so the three people can coexist in a more spacious way.There was a scent of medicine in the carriage that didn't smell offensive. The big man's hands were still resting on the drawn curtain, but his eyes were attracted by the drowsy sleeping person.

It was a delicate young man, his thin body was wrapped in a brocade quilt, the abnormal blush on his face combined with the slightly messy hair showed a rare morbid beauty, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, his belly rose and fell, and he breathed It seems a little difficult.

How can there be such a beautiful boy in the world!The big man put down the curtain in his hand blankly, the carriage started suddenly, and stumbled inadvertently.

"Sir, be careful!" Mi Chun, who was sitting down and wringing her body seriously, looked up at him suspiciously. This big man seemed to have a clear mind just now, why did he just stay in a daze when he came in?

The big man sat down slowly leaning against the carriage, without moving his gaze, looking in that direction, Mi Chun finally understood.

Brother Ziming's face is indeed a sharp weapon to poke people no matter where he goes.

"I'm sorry!" Mi Chun raised her voice before pulling back the big man's soul, "There is a patient in the car, sir, I can only endure the smell of the medicine."

"Ah...ah, it's okay..." The big man was at a loss for a while, probably feeling embarrassed to stare at him again, so he moved his gaze to the incense burner next to him, and asked blankly, "The smell of this medicine is not good. It's not vulgar, and it doesn't smell stuffy at all. This young master looks like he has a deficiency, so it must cost a lot of money if he often uses this medicine?"

If he is a businessman, he can think of money for everything. Mi Chun smiled reluctantly, looking at Jin Guang who was not sleeping very soundly, feeling a little distressed, and wrote a response: "My elder brother is born with a deficiency, and this journey is enough. .”

"So it's Brother Ling..." The young man couldn't tell who was bigger from Mi Chun, the big man thought to himself, and continued to ask, "Look at your convoy, it must have been on the road for a few days, right? Since Brother Ling It is not suitable to travel far because of congenital inadequacy, why..."

"It's because my father's time is running out. My brothers and I have been away all year round and never came home. No matter what, we must do our filial piety at this last moment." Mi Chun sighed after speaking, as if it was the truth.

The big man obviously believed it, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Mi Chun waved her hand to show that she didn't mind, and the big man asked again just now: "I haven't asked your name yet."

Getting used to telling lies along the way, Mi Chun replied without changing his face: "My surname is Xiong."

"So it's Mr. Xiong." The big man bowed his hands.

After casually returning the gift, Mi Chun also asked, "Dare to ask your name?"

Hearing that he also asked the same question, the big man immediately smiled and said: "Sir, you don't understand our industry. The real name of a merchant is worthless, but the number used in the guild is valuable."

This is the first time I have heard of this kind of attention, so Mi Chun also followed suit and asked: "Then dare to ask Mr. nickname?"

"Inelegant." The big man waved his hands and said with a smile, "My name is Sanze."
