Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 551 Gansu folklore, general soldier eccentricity (1)
The provincial capital of Gansu is Lanzhou, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is famous as the capital of the Yellow River and has rich geographical resources.

Gansu is also the birthplace of gold and silver deposits, and the gold and silver produced here account for more than 70.00% of the gold and silver mines in Daning State.

So although it is far away from Shangjing, it is a very rich place.

The people in Gansu include twelve major ethnic groups including Han, Hui, Tibetan, Dongxiang, Yugu, Mongolian, Kazakh, Baoan, Salar, Manchu, Tu, and Uyghur. It is a multi-ethnic settlement.

According to legend, Fuxi, the head of the Three Emperors, was born here. Since ancient times, agriculture on both sides of the Yellow River has sprouted.

Tianshui City and Longnan area in the southeast of Gansu Province are natural and fertile lands with a long history, beautiful mountains and rivers, rich products, pleasant climate and unique folk customs. In addition to the Dadiwan ancient cultural site, there are also rich folk customs of Fuxi culture, Qin culture, and Three Kingdoms culture in Tianshui.

Every year, the Fuxi Temple Fair on the [-]th of the first lunar month and the Fuxi Cultural Festival on the [-]th of May bring the folklore activities in Tianshui to a climax.

The legend of Tang Xuanzang in Tianshui made Fogongshan Qiao, Wanzishan, and Jinjin Temple and other places the main folk attractions.

The Labrang Monastery in the territory, as the three major temples of the Yellow Sect, has exquisite architecture, and the simple and elegant Linxia Mosque is a gathering place for the local people. The religious and folk activities here are unique and grand, which is breathtaking.

The large-scale Lianhuashan and Songmingyan Huaerhui fully demonstrate the folk customs of Linxia.

There are also the Langshan Festival and Flower Picking Festival in the Gannan snow area; the wedding and food customs of the Dongxiang and Baoan people in Linxia make Gannan and Linxia a golden area for folk customs in Gansu.

Although the Dingxi area and Baiyin City are dry and rainless, and the vegetation is poor, there are also fascinating folk customs.

The Hexi Corridor is a famous granary in Gansu, and it is also the ancient battlefield of iron horses and Jinge in the past and the main traffic route of the ancient Silk Road.

World-famous Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes Folklore, Sunan Yugu Customs, Subei Mongolian Customs, Aksai Customs, Tianzhu Snow District Customs, Leitai Wonders, Ancient Jiuquan Legend, Jiayuguan Legend, Yumen Pass and Ancient Yangguan Ruins , Qiaowan skin drums, folk banquets, Minqin camel caravans and other exotic customs shine here.

Lanzhou is a famous historical city, and the folk customs here are even more colorful, such as Lu Tusi Yamen, the ancient ferry and iron bridge of the Yellow River, Wuquan Mountain Temple Fair, Anningbao Peach Blossom Festival, Gaolan Lantern Festival and spring cattle, waterwheels and skin rafts , Taiping Drum and Taiping Song, as well as carved gourds, Yellow River stones, hookahs, white orchid melons, etc., make people linger.

As soon as Pei Yan arrived in Gansu, he spent three full months understanding the folk customs of various places in Gansu. Compared with what he saw in the books, it can only be said that the descriptions in the books are not enough, and the real Gansu needs more More beautiful!

Although this place is a bit remote, it is also described as a wild frontier, but after arriving here, you have to really understand it, adapt to it, and eventually fall in love with this land.

Pei Yan's current military mansion is the former Liancheng Lu chieftain's yamen, which has been rebuilt to a certain scale after successive dynasties.

Gansu is a place where many ethnic groups live together. It is even more difficult to take care of this place than it was in Liangcheng.

Pei Yan remembered that before he left, the emperor had told him that if these barbarians in Gansu could not be subdued, they would be eaten one by one.

Such a large piece of gold and silver mine is in the hands of these people. Although the annual tax paid to the court is quite a lot, how can the emperor feel at ease?

It was like someone was holding him by the throat.

If there is any change in Gansu, it will undoubtedly vacate its treasury. This kind of dangerous situation is absolutely unwilling to be seen by the emperor.

But Pei Yan also roughly contacted the chieftains or patriarchs of various tribes. Of course, some of them were radical, some were easy-going, some were flattering, and some were anxious. It was not easy to subdue these people.

And Pei Yan felt that to really hold Gansu in his hands, what he should do was not to subdue or cannibalize them, but to integrate them together. This is a difficult project, and he gave himself six to ten years of hard work.

If he is allowed to do it, not to mention writing a brilliant stroke on his own political achievements, it will definitely be a great thing for the benefit of future generations!

A man wants to have a career, but he will spend less time with his wife and children along the way, and will miss the time when the children grow up. It has to be said that it is a pity.

The Mu brothers are already in good health, but now they are adapting well here in Gansu, and they are still learning martial arts from Bi Yan, but the two little guys miss Ji Chonglian and Sister Shuang a little bit, why doesn't he?
After Bean Sprout got chickenpox, she became weaker, and she fell ill again after she came to Gansu. If it wasn't for Gui Ying who took care of her day and night, she might have lost her life here.

Hongying came to Gansu with them. On weekdays, she is responsible for taking care of his daily life and taking care of the affairs of his two children. His life is very fulfilling.

Ji Chonglian seemed to like to hear every time he mentioned the daily trivialities in his letters, and he asked him to detail what he did every day in the letter, and then talk about what everyone did.

And these are not only for Ji Chonglian to read alone, but she will also tell Sister Shuang what her father is doing, whether Mu Changfeng and Mu Yuanye have practiced today, whether they have grown taller, and so on.

Some nagging and cumbersome, but it makes people feel very warm.

At least his wife and children have not forgotten him even thousands of miles away.

There was a commotion downstairs, disturbing Pei Yan's thoughts, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and put down the pen in his hand.

Just as he was about to speak, someone had already stepped in.

Wearing a black soft armor on Bi Yan's body feels a bit nondescript. Two strands of long hair hang by the ears, and most of the rest is tied on the top of the head, giving people a sense of bohemianism. Coupled with his unchangeable male and female With a monstrous face, it was a completely heaven-defying existence.

It's no wonder that when he first arrived in Gansu, both men and women liked him, but since several bold men dared to confess their love to Bi Yan and were beaten by him, people realized that this long A handsome man is definitely not easy to mess with.

At this moment, Bi Yan leaned obliquely against the door frame, folded his hands in front of his chest, raised the corners of his eyes and mouth, that kind of evil and enchanting feeling made Pei Yan get goosebumps all over his body.

Pei Yan picked up the letter paper and blew it, and he filled the thin sheets of letter paper, and he just waited for it to dry and put it in an envelope.

Bi Yan pursed her mouth, "What's the matter, you wrote a letter to your sister-in-law again, are you tired of it?"

"How can you, a loner, understand the benefits of having a family?"
