Chapter 1797 Xiaoling Extra Story (1)

Spring City.

It is a new city on the border between Yu State and Wushui State.

The State of Yu defeated the State of Wushui, and the people of the two countries migrated in great numbers. Tens of thousands of people left their homeland in great numbers.

This is how Spring Wind City was established.

A city composed of criminals, good citizens, Wushui people, and slaves.

This city is busy and fulfilling. Many kinds of people thrive here and exchange goods. Soon, it becomes the trading center of the surrounding area and the most prosperous city.

A carriage stopped at the gate of the city.

A servant jumped down and shouted joyfully, "My lord, we're here."

The curtain of the carriage was lifted by a pair of white hands like jade, revealing an elegant and handsome face, it was Xiao Ling.

He looked at the three characters "Spring Breeze City" on the city wall.

The characters are full of vitality and forceful momentum.

A gust of cold wind came in, Xiao Ling shivered, put down the curtain, and said in a harmonious voice: "Let's go!"

"Yes! Young Master, are you okay?"

"No problem!"

The servant hurriedly greeted the groom to drive the car into the city, and the car went straight to the biggest inn in Chunfeng City.

Xiao Ling got out of the carriage, he described it as clean, he was not very beautiful, but there was an air of elegance and elegance, he was a first-class and refined person, and the people around him were immediately dumbfounded.

Xiao Ling tightened his cloak, bowed his head and walked in.

The boy hurriedly followed behind, but what he was holding was a pack of medicinal materials. Once he entered, he ordered the shopkeeper to decoct the medicine, and his son would use it in a while.

Seeing Xiao Ling's demeanor, the shopkeeper didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly ordered someone to go.

Xiao Ling sat in the warm room, holding the silver basin in his hand, he felt much better, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The boy felt a little distressed. "Young master, your body is getting weaker and weaker. It would be nice for us to live in Yongzhou. Why bother to come here. After all, this is a new city, and the food and supplies can't be compared with when we were in Yongzhou. I'm worried about you. Toss, but the body is not good again."

Xiao Ling waved his hand. "No problem!"

His eyes are slightly closed.

Why did you come all the way here?

Naturally, there are people and things worth coming here.

The boy was very distressed, he didn't understand why his master came here, the master used to like to walk around, he thought it was because the Spring Breeze City was very good, so the master came to have a look, but now it seems that it is obviously not, The master has a mind of his own.

After the medicine was cooked, the servant served Xiao Ling to drink the medicine and fell asleep.

In the evening, after eating, I got up for a walk, and then fell asleep again.

Early the next morning, I went to visit Huo Jiaying, the local city lord, with a name card. The name card said Ping Nan, an idler from Yongzhou.

Pingnan, Pingnan.

Huo Jiaying took the name card and thought about it twice, but she couldn't figure out who Pingnan was. He just dared to call himself an idler. No one would really regard him as an idler.

The idler has always been the appellation of the rich.

She said "Please!"

Xiao Ling was invited in politely.

Huo Jiaying only felt a bright light in front of her eyes, such a person would not be someone with no name, after seeing the ceremony twice, Huo Jiaying asked: "Is this your first time coming to Spring Breeze City, sir?"

Xiao Ling looked at the City Lord's Mansion, and the past came rushing over his face. He lowered his head slightly, with memories in his eyes, and said thoughtfully: "It's not the first time I came here. When I came here, there was no spring breeze here. city."

"Oh! That was many years ago." Huo Jiaying was even more serious.

"Indeed!" Xiao Ling chuckled.

That was many years ago.

He passed by the boundary of Spring Breeze City at least three times.

For the first time, Jiang Xinwei was defeated. He followed Jiang Xinwei from Yu Kingdom to Wushui Kingdom, and passed by Chunfeng City. At that time, Chunfeng City was just a peak, surrounded by a few earthen walls.

Later, he became Emperor Qing of Pingnan, and traveled all the way from Yu Kingdom to marry the Lord of Wushui Kingdom, and also stayed here for a while for repairs.

Later, when he successfully escaped from Wushui Kingdom, he predicted that the two countries would go to war. In order to repay the country's favor, he sneaked around many places in Wushui Kingdom, drew an accurate map of Wushui Kingdom, and presented it to General Guo Feng. , marking the location of Spring Breeze City.

This is a good place, surrounded by rivers, where it can be used for farming, cargo, and defense.It was an excellent place, but in the hands of Wushui Kingdom, it was just an insignificant pass.

Now, it's finally developed.

Seeing that Xiao Ling obviously didn't want to discuss the matter of coming to Spring Breeze City in depth, Huo Jiaying went straight to the point and said, "I don't know if you are here, but what is the important thing?"

Xiao Ling said with a smile: "If you don't have anything to do, you can go to the Three Treasures Hall. Pingnan came here specially today to ask for something."

"What's the matter?"

"Ask the city lord for someone."

Huo Jiaying frowned, looked Xiao Ling up and down with his eyes, and asked uncertainly: "Who is the son of labor who came all the way? Could it be that he is a friend of the son's old friend?"

"Yes! His name is He Nian."

I met He Nian when I was on my way to draw a map of Wushui Country.

At that time, the Wushui country had been in war for many years. Even if he could speak fluent Wushui dialect, his appearance would still cause him trouble.

He Nian was accidentally spotted by a group of soldiers, and it was He Nian who rescued him. He Nian's family is a prominent local family with a lot of power, so saving Xiao Ling who was disguised as a commoner was no problem.

Afterwards, Xiao Ling stayed at He Nian's house.

It's a good year, and he has a lot of research on the culture of Yu State. The two of them came and went, and formed an old friend.

Following He Nian, Xiao Ling learned many customs of Wushui Country, and truly became one of the few people in Yu Country who understands Wushui Country.

Wushui Kingdom is destroyed.

Many famous families in Wushui Kingdom fell down from the altar, and the He family was not spared.

The last letter Xiao Ling received from He Nian was a distress letter, begging him to protect his clansmen for the sake of past love.

When Xiao Ling sent people to look for them, he knew that the He family had been wiped out, and the few remaining members of the clan were also sold into slavery.Chunfeng City is the largest slave-holding land nearby, if you want to find He Nian, you can only come to the City Lord's Mansion.

No one knew He Nian, except Xiao Ling.

So, he came in person.

He even wants to repay the life-saving grace back then, but if He Nian knew that the person he saved was one of the people who caused the extinction of other countries, he didn't know how he would feel.

Good fortune tricks people, and never asks people if they are willing or not.

If what happened back then happened again, he would still unswervingly finish drawing that map.

Huo Jiaying snorted.

what year!
I haven't heard of it, I think it is an unknown person.

However, it seems inappropriate to go to someone without asking where they came from. "Young master comes from Yongzhou, not just from any master in Yongzhou. If Huo has a chance, he will pay a visit."

A slight smile appeared on Xiao Ling's pale as snow face. "Pingnan!"

"Pingnan?" Huo Jiaying frowned fiercely, even flustered.

The servant next to Xiao Ling curled his lips in dissatisfaction, "How many Pingnans are there in the world? Don't you even know this, the majestic Lord of Spring Breeze City?"

"Diqing Pingnan?"

The servant proudly said: "Apart from Emperor Pingnan, who else in the world dares to call himself Pingnan?"

Huo Jiaying hurriedly knelt down, bowed and said, "The lord of Chenchunfeng City, Huo Jiaying, respectfully welcomes Diqing Pingnan, and asks Diqing to make amends."

"Get up!" Xiao Ling was very indifferent. "Those who do not know are not guilty."

As he spoke, a small seal appeared in his palm, and he calmly said, "When did you find it?"

Huo Jiaying checked the seal and knew that the person in front of her was really the legendary Emperor Pingnan of Yu State, her heart tightened, she didn't dare to say any more, and immediately ordered people all over the city to look for that person named He Nian, and on the other hand, the food and wine , like flowing water to the top.

She herself sat at the bottom, looking at this figure in the legend of Yu Kingdom.

Diqing Pingnan changed from a criminal minister to an emperor, and then became a hero of the Yu Kingdom. His life was full of ups and downs, which was more complicated than a playbook.

He is not of the real blood of the royal family, but the royal family and His Majesty recognized his status as emperor, and they each received rewards. What's more, because of him, Yu State was able to attack Wushui State so smoothly, and he contributed a lot.

Xiao Ling tasted it for a while, then stopped eating.

In the palace of Wushui Kingdom, in order to overthrow the former Feng Jun and take control of the harem, he used a bitter trick, but it was a pity that the weight of poisoning himself was too heavy.

After being rescued, his body collapsed.

Fear of cold, aversion to cold, cold hands and feet all year round, and some minor ailments have increased day by day. Over the years, I have been accompanied by herbs, and I am cautious when I move, sit, and lie down, and my diet has been simplified a lot.

He felt that he was dying, and that death was not far away.

Huo Jiaying wanted to get close to Xiao Ling, seeing Xiao Ling's whole person was indifferent, but he didn't know where to start, so he smiled and said: "Except when is the year, what else does the emperor want to send the officials to do?"

"One more thing, where did the famous He family in Spring Breeze City go?"

"The He family?" Huo Jiaying seemed to have finally remembered. "During the war, the He family was seized by several royal families, and it was severely weakened. Later, when the country was destroyed, the He family refused to surrender, and the family was exterminated. Those who fled here and there became slaves and scattered everywhere. , I am afraid that there are not many living in Spring Breeze City."

"Oh!" Xiao Ling was thoughtful.

From the perspective of the great cause of the future, Xiao Ling can understand Jiang Wujiang's national policy very well, this national policy is undoubtedly excellent.

There are too many people in Wushui country, and I can't think of a better way except to kill a group, demote a group, and sell a group.

Only when the number of Wushui people is controlled within a certain range can the long-term stability of Yu State be ensured.

This is a feat that has been accomplished for thousands of years, but when this kind of fate is specific to an individual, it looks much more tragic.

However, Xiao Ling thought very clearly, if Wushui Kingdom defeated Yu Kingdom, it is believed that the fate of the royal family and nobles would not be much better. Winners and losers, only the winners are qualified to speak.

Finding someone is naturally not so fast.

Xiao Ling waited patiently, until noon, someone finally came to report that he had found it, and it was in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

Huo Jiaying's face turned dark immediately, and she hurriedly asked He Nian to be cleaned up and brought out to meet people.

A thin figure was brought out, kneeling on the ground habitually, with a dull expression, unable to speak a word.

Xiao Ling frowned. "You look up."

The thin figure knelt on the ground, not daring to move.

Huo Jiaying said in a deep voice, "I still haven't listened to your nobleman's orders." There was a threat in her tone.

The man trembled twice, and finally raised his head, a tortured face appeared in front of Xiao Ling, looking at Xiao Ling with a begging look in his eyes.

Xiao Ling held his breath, waved his hands, and signaled Huo Jiaying to go out. "No one is allowed to stay, I have something to ask him."

Huo Jiaying beckoned, and soon, everyone in the room was gone, leaving only three people.

Xiao Ling asked, "Who are you?"

The man trembled twice, tremblingly said: "I am He Yue, Mr. Xiao help."

He Yue, He Nian's younger sister.

When Xiao Ling lived in He's house, he had met several times, but He Yue at that time was full of energy and brilliance, completely different from the prisoner now.

"Where's your brother?" Xiao Ling had some bad premonition in his heart.

He Yue groaned and cried, "My brother is dead."

Xiao Ling felt a little stuffy in his heart.

He Yue continued: "My brother died in the rebellious army. I disguised myself as a man and got mixed up in the migrating team. Unexpectedly, I was captured by a pair of horse bandits and sold here as slaves. The women here will be arrested. Going to the army camp as a meat shield, I didn’t want my own people to kill my own people, so I disguised myself as a man and was sold to the backyard as a slave doing chores.”

Xiao Ling listened, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, he looked at He Yue with complicated eyes.

Although the destruction of the country and family is inevitable, it always makes people uncomfortable when it happens to people they know well.

"Come with me!"

These few short words sounded like fairy voices in He Yue's ears, she raised her head in disbelief, and looked at Xiao Ling with joyful and fearful eyes, fearing that what he said was false.

Xiao Ling smiled, and went out first, followed by the servant, and when he stepped out of the threshold, he turned to look at He Yue in a daze, and said, "Why don't you come here, do you still want to be a servant here?"

He Yue was overjoyed, she stood up hastily, patted the dust off her body, and hurriedly followed behind.

A group of people walked out of the courtyard,

This time, he walked openly and aboveboard, and the journey was smooth and unimpeded. Not only that, but the rest of the people were very respectful when they saw Zhili.

He Yue finally understood that the person who was saved by her elder brother back then had a different identity, and the person who even the city lord of the city lord's mansion treated him with courtesy, what kind of background was he?
He Yue was thinking wildly in her mind, so she forgot to look at the surrounding scenery, turned around a few more times, and stood at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Come out!" Xiao Ling looked at He Yue, and said in an unhurried tone: "You are free, what are your plans now?"

He Yue blurted out. "Follow you!"

"Follow me?" Xiao Ling was thoughtful, he didn't want to bring more people, it's troublesome.

He Yue's eyes were red, "Save people to the end, if you let me go now, I will be captured and bought into a slave in a short time."

Xiao Ling looked at her silently, He Yue didn't have the identity and household registration of the Yu people, it was very difficult to live a decent life, and he was afraid that he would be arrested again as she said in a few days.

He sighed silently and nodded. "In this case, you can follow me, and I will let someone re-identify you."

He Yue was overjoyed, she didn't even hate Xiao Ling, a native of Yu Kingdom, any more.
