C139 (1/2)

That night, Xiaoqing only felt that her sleep was exceptionally sweet. The nightmares of the past few years had finally all disappeared.

Luo Lingwei also felt happy. Although this task was tiring, it was surprisingly simple. Unlike the previous missions, they were either very dangerous or very disgusting.

Everyone was extremely happy. After working hard for almost two months, it had finally ended. Only Zhang Long was frowning. He was very worried about Xiaoqing's condition.

Although Xiaoqing had also killed before, she had no other choice but to protect herself. However, this time was different, Xiaoqing simply wanted to torture people. He was afraid that Xiaoqing might have some sort of mental magic barrier to her, so he kept this matter in his heart for a long time.

After everything was ready, Zhang Long led everyone in disguise. He disguised himself as a team of Darkdart Martial Masters to escort a noble young master home. Zhao Hu bought some horses and a carriage. After the preparations were made, everyone set out on the path.

At this moment, everyone was disguising themselves, and no one could recognize them. Everyone walked from Lan Xi County to Anhua State on the official road. Along the way, they had to pass through almost the entire Shan Yang region.

Along the way, Luo Lingwei came to know the local customs and customs of the Shanyang region, which was very different from the capital.

The diet of the people in Beijing was mostly made up of rice. However, there were plenty of resources in the Shanyang region. Although nothing could be considered as a staple food, anyone near the water could fish and those leaning against the mountain could hunt. However, even though there are plenty of them, they are so perishable that they cannot be used to pay taxes.

Therefore, Ye Feian suggested for the people to clear the wasteland and cultivate the grain. These few years, the taxes on the land of the mountain and sun had doubled.

After that, Ye Feian proposed that spring and autumn should not be missed, and requested the people not to hunt in the spring and autumn.

Firstly, if the fishing was too intense, all the birds and beasts in the Shanyang region would be eaten sooner or later. Secondly, spring and autumn was a busy season for farming and harvesting. In this way, if the people wanted to eat their fill in the winter, they would have to spend more effort in planting and harvesting in the spring and autumn.

Because of these policies, Ye Feian was greatly loved by the people of the sixteen states of Shan Yang. Although he was just a thousand years old, to the people of the sixteen prefectures of the Mountain Sun Country, he was even more important than the current Son of Heaven.

After learning these anecdotes, the disdain Luo Lingwei originally had towards Ye Feian disappeared by a lot. After all, in this era, under such circumstances, it was truly admirable for Ye Feian to be able to achieve such a result. Compared to that foolish emperor in the capital who only knew how to eat and drink, not only did he sigh with emotion, if this person was his eldest son, why would Ye Lianhe spend so much effort to protect him from those lecherous and mediocre people?

On this day, the few of them arrived at Dongshan County. Because of the continuous journey on the boat, their journey had been slow. The few of them were already exhausted. As soon as Luo Lingwei gave the order, everyone booked an inn.

The reason for his insolence was, firstly, because Luo Lingwei was acting the part of a popinjay, and his actions were extremely insolent. The second reason was that the group wouldn't be separated because of this. If there was any danger, it would be easier to escape.

The next day, after resting and rearranging themselves, just as everyone was about to get on the carriage and leave, they discovered that the entire inn was surrounded.

The warriors wanted to fight with the soldiers, but they were stopped by Zhang Long. Zhang Long walked up to the soldiers and greeted them with a smile. However, they didn't pay any attention to Zhang Long at all.

”Honored officials, we are from the Beijing Escort Office.” As he spoke, he took out fifty taels of silvers from his bosom.

However, this group of soldiers did not take the same action at all.

”Do you know what it is? Get out of the way! ” The leader of the group parted the crowd and walked in.
