Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1335, Exile in the North Sea (2)

The next morning, Sun Xue woke up early.

Whose smell was very fragrant last night. Since the accident in the Sun family, it was the first time that she slept so soundly that even the crying of children and the crying of women did not disturb her sleep.

It stands to reason that the inn I stayed in was the worst inn, and I slept in the Datong shop, with the smell of sheep and some small animals left by the herdsmen on the grassland.

She, a young lady, couldn't sleep well at all.

But this journey is really tiring. Don’t look at sitting on a carriage, it seems that you shouldn’t be tired, but when a dozen people are crowded in a carriage and you can’t even stretch your feet, you You will feel that this Chase bunk is extremely comfortable to sleep on.

In addition, last night, when the owner of the inn saw their women and children being exiled, he had a good heart and cooked a pot of free haggis soup for them to drink.

Haggis is worthless on the grassland. In the past, the Sun family didn't care about these things at all.

But the bowl of haggis soup last night was incomparably delicious. The Sun family, who hadn’t eaten any meat for a long time, drank it all. Bowl, take another good night's sleep to sweep away the tiredness from this period of time.

After waking up early, Sun Xue finished washing in a hurry, because she knew that when the escort officials got up and had breakfast, they would continue on their way.

On the way, it was inconvenient to go to the toilet or something, and because of the Sun family's bad reputation, the escort officials didn't treat them too well.

But fortunately, the officials were quite upright. Although they didn't have much good looks towards them, they did not embarrass them too much by reprimanding and scolding them all the way.

Sure enough, as usual, when the officials Luo Ming and Peng Chao got up and had morning tea, they hurried on their way.

The distances between the towns on the grassland are all calculated, and they are separated by a hundred miles. If you don't work hard, you may have to spend the night in the wild.

This is definitely not the result you want.

The four four-wheeled carriages set off again, continuing to walk north along the cement road with no end in sight.

The lush grassland, the melodious matouqin, and the figures of the herdsmen galloping on horses, accompanied by eagles along the way, the singing of the herdsmen echoed under the blue sky and white clouds.

Day after day, he kept heading north.

At the beginning, Sun Xue was very disappointed, and her overall condition was extremely bad.

She is a dignified young lady of the Sun family, she fell to this point overnight, maybe it is better than becoming a Jiaofang secretary. Originally, she had already been engaged to a family of officials in the capital, and she would marry at the end of the year.

Now that something like this happened, the other party immediately drew a line and no longer had any contact with the Sun family, so the engagement was naturally cancelled.

The sudden decline of the family, coupled with the confusion about the future, made her, the young lady of the Sun family, face collapse for a while.

However, walking all the way north on the grassland, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, listening to the herdsmen's Matouqin, and feeling the wind and grass on the grassland, her mood gradually improved.

Some things, since you can't change it, try to accept it.

After thinking about this, the mood is naturally completely different.

She silently wrote down what she saw and experienced on the grassland. If she had pen, ink, paper and inkstone, she even wanted to write it all down.

"Chilechuan, under the Yin Mountain, the sky is like a dome, covering the whole field!"

"The sky is dark, the wild is vast, the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low~"

Sun Xue read and felt silently in her heart.

After her mood improved, Sun Xue began to appreciate the scenery of the grassland.

She grew up in Huairou County since she was a child, and rarely went out. At this moment, looking at the vast land in front of her, although there is no bustling and hustle and bustle in Guannei County, the natural beauty makes people feel refreshed. Looking at the white clouds in the distance, it feels like a tentacle available.

"gorgeous!"

Sun Xue admired softly in her heart.

Day after day, town after town.

At the back, there are no concrete roads. The imperial court has not yet built a concrete road to Beihai. There is only a dirt road, and traces of ruts can still be seen on it.

The four-wheeled carriage was walking on the dirt road, and it began to become bumpy, causing the Sun family members sitting in the four-wheeled carriage to complain, but they dared not speak out, for fear of being reprimanded and abused by several officials.

"Brother Luo, how long before we can reach Beihai Town?"

Peng Chao was driving a four-wheeled carriage, and he was quite tired along the way.

"In a few days, we will almost reach Beihai Town."

"Don't tell me, it's really cold in Beihai. In Huairou County, we're going to be so hot that we're going to die, but we're going to Beihai soon, and the weather will be cool. If it's winter, it's probably really cold." It's going to be cold to death."

As Luo Ming was on his way, he also felt the temperature here. Even in summer, it seemed like autumn here. With a little bit of coolness coming up, people couldn't help but want to add clothes to themselves.

"A few more days~"

When Peng Chao heard this, he immediately sighed.

"Hold on~"

"Everyone pay attention these days. There are a lot of wolves, tigers, and bears on this side of the North Sea. Especially at night, the four of us have to take turns to watch the night, and the fire must not be extinguished, otherwise we may be killed." The wolf was carried away."

As soon as Luo Ming's words fell, a wolf howled from the forest not far away, causing the Sun family members on the four-wheeled carriage to scream in fright.

"what is it call?"

Luo Ming immediately reprimanded him.

"Your Sun family members are devoid of conscience and commit all kinds of crimes. You are more terrifying than wolves. Why are you afraid of wolves?"

After being reprimanded by Luo Ming, the Sun family all bowed their heads and fell silent.

The crimes committed by the Sun family are too serious.

There are hundreds of people who were killed by the Sun family alone. As for being beaten and maimed, even more were injured. It is really very light to be scolded and said a few words.

Sun Xue didn't pay attention to these things, and didn't care about them, she was actually admiring the scenery and scenery here at this moment.

The scenery here is quite good, with beautiful mountains and rivers, an all-natural world, without a trace of human habitation, like a paradise, and the dirt road pressed by the ruts of the four-wheeled carriage, just rightly embellishes the world, not only does not destroy the tranquility here And beauty, on the contrary, it adds a touch of humanity.

"If only I could draw it all down."

In her heart, she actually had the idea of ​​painting, wanting to paint and write down everything in front of her eyes.

A few days later, the group of them finally arrived in Beihai Town.

Beihai Town, located on the northernmost seaside of Beihai, is one of the six towns planned by the imperial court to develop the northern border, three in Congling, one in Beihai, and two in the north of Altai Mountain.

Beihai Town is the only development town on this side of Beihai, and its only duty is to consolidate Daming's rule over Beihai and a large area around it.

Beihai Town is still very simple at this time, and the city wall has not even been built. It is just surrounded by some wooden fences, forming the appearance of a small town.

The scale is not small. More than [-] people have been exiled to Beihai Town, forming the first batch of residents of Beihai Town.

Most of these exiles to Beihai Town were illegal or criminal, or they were implicated and exiled here.

"Clang~"

Accompanied by the sound of handcuffs and footcuffs falling, Sun Xue couldn't help touching her wrist vigorously, feeling the feeling of regaining freedom and new life.

"Okay~"

"Beihai Town has arrived. From now on, you are free and innocent. I hope you will take care of yourself and don't make mistakes again!"

Beihai Town was a place where criminals were exiled, and the Ming court also set up a yamen here to be responsible for the management of Beihai Town.

Luo Ming and Peng Chao handed over the escorts to the yamen, and then checked and exchanged the documents. After checking the personnel, it was no longer their business. The next step was the affairs of the Yamen in Beihai Town.

The life of the Sun family in exile in Beihai has just begun.

The imperial court is still very generous in developing new territories. The Sun family was assigned their own house as soon as they arrived here. This kind of house adopted a special design.

There are fireplaces and kangs. In winter, no matter how cold it is, as long as there is enough wood to burn, the inside of the house can maintain the temperature without freezing to death.

As for the rest, it is very simple. Some food is given, but the amount is not much, and it is only enough for a few days. If you want food, you have to work by yourself.

The tools of life are not the same, but they are all fully equipped, so that they will not really drink blood and bare their hair.

It's just that all this is absolutely hell-level difficulty for the Sun family who have always stretched out their hands and opened their mouths. What's more, most of them are female relatives and children, so that they don't know what to do for a while. to start a new life of your own.

The arrival of the Sun family's daughter did not cause any disturbance to the entire Beihai Town. Prisoners were exiled here almost every few days, and from time to time some people couldn't bear the life here and chose to commit suicide.

Compared with other places in Daming, this place is really too difficult, everything looks so bad, and here are all prisoners from all over Daming, all kinds of people, Good and evil are mixed.

Fights are very common here. On the first day Sun Xue arrived, she saw several fights. The fights were very fierce, blood flowed, and there were too many ruthless people. Many of them used to be hooligans. When they get here, they are all thorns, no one will accept anyone, and a fight will be inevitable.
