On the second day, after changing the carriage again, Lu Yuan took Zhou Qing and continued to embark on the schedule.
This is already the border of Luling Mansion and even Yuzhang County.
Further west from here, it doesn’t take thirty or fifty miles to get out of the county border.
Seeing that it was getting farther and farther away from home, the carriage was turning with a rumble, and the shaking carriage shook one after another.
Zhou Qing, who had been silent these days, finally couldn’t help but be curious and asked out loud: “Brother Lu, where are we going?”
Lu Yuan glanced at the driver who was driving outside the carriage, and at this time he was about to leave the Luling Mansion, the territory of the Iron Sword Gate, which made him quite relaxed.
Of course, although relaxed, he still has the vigilance that should be there.
So he lowered his voice and said in a volume that the coachman outside could not hear: “I have a friend in Dongting County, and he is an official over there. Aren’t we going to take refuge?
It just so happened that my friend and I hadn’t seen each other for more than two years, so I could go to him this time. The
so-called friend is naturally Sun Siwen.
Since he was preparing to flee that day, the first place that Lu Yuan thought of escaping was Dongting County.
First, it belongs to two counties and does not belong to the same river and lake forces. Going there, you can effectively avoid the pursuit of the Iron Sword Gate.
Second, Sun Siwen was an official there, although he was only a minor official, but if he defected to him, he could get some official attention.
Sanlai is naturally Lu Yuan separated for two years, and he also misses his friend a little, and this time he went to find him, just to fulfill the promise he said back then.
Zhou Qing nodded, and after learning the destination, he didn’t ask more.
Lu Yuan didn’t pay attention to him at this time, his eyes looked at the scenery outside the car window that kept receding backwards, and his thoughts fluttered.
“I don’t know what Brother Sun has become now?”
He thought of the picture when the two reunited after a while, a smile flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he was in a happy mood.
……
Dongting County is mountainous, and everywhere you can see uneven hills, some steep and gentle, some can pass vehicles, and some do not even have pedestrian paths.
There are countless streams shuttling through it, and the water is rapid, some can pass through boats, and some can only build suspension bridges.
Lu Yuan took Zhou Qing to walk between the mountains and rivers here, or by carriage, or by boat, or walking, experiencing different scenery everywhere, only feeling that the heaven and earth were magnificent and the manpower was majestic.
These scenery made him addicted, and even the speed of the rush slowed down a little.
Fortunately, after more than 20 days, I finally arrived at my destination, Changning County, where Sun Siwen worked.
Changning County is located in the west of Dongting County, and this line belongs to the lowest poor county even in Dongting County.
Lu Yuan deeply felt this the first time he entered the city.
The streets are sparsely crowded, and many pedestrians pass through with patches on their clothes, and few are dressed in brocade.
There are also those barbarians wearing foreign costumes or animal skins, mixed in the flow of people, and it seems that there are not a few.
And the surrounding crowd, it seems that they have long been accustomed to the appearance of these barbarians, and they are skilled in talking and doing business with them, without the slightest discomfort.
The dialect here is also quite interesting.
On the Yuzhang County, whether inside or outside the city, local people communicate in Dayue official dialect, and people from various prefectures and counties communicate without barriers.
On the side of Changning County, along the way, although there are also people who will make the official words of Dayue, there are very few people, maybe only two or three percent. The rest speak a local dialect, or a derivative of a mixture of dialects and Mandarin.
This strange language, as well as the large number of barbarians in the city wearing foreign costumes, mixed together, and for a while gave Lu Yuan a wonderful feeling of being in a foreign country.
While making people feel a little uncomfortable, they are also full of interest in this exotic atmosphere.
But at the moment, Lu Yuan is carrying Zhou Qing and a large cart of luggage, full of burdens, now is not the time for them to play.
The most urgent thing is to quickly find Sun Siwen and leave his feet.
Fortunately, today coincides with the middle of the month, and it is the time when the Yamen officials are resting. Lu Yuan gave the coachman an address and went to Sun Siwen’s house.
……
Changning County is not big, just five or six streets.
After passing through two alleys, they soon arrived at Changningfang in the west of the city.
All the rich officials living here in the city, Sun Siwen, as a scholar, has a residence arranged by the official government, and now lives here.
Coincidentally, when Lu Yuan just came here along the address, he happened to see Sun Siwen wearing a light blue coat and coming out of the house, looking like he was going somewhere.
Immediately shouted: “Brother Sun!
Sun Siwen heard a familiar voice, turned around, and saw Lu Yuan standing next to a carriage, looking at him with a smile.
He was stunned, then came back to his senses and ran over with a look of surprise: “Brother Lu.”
Sun Siwen pulled his friend, looked at it carefully, found that the demeanor was still the same, and said happily: “Since I parted two years ago, I have been thinking, when can Brother Lu come to see me again?” Waiting day and night, I finally waited.
Lu Yuan laughed: “In the past, I said that I would come to look for you when I had free time, isn’t this coming?” Saying that, he ridiculed: “But Brother Sun is now an official, so he won’t dislike my poor friend for coming to eat and drink, right?”
Sun Siwen pretended to be angry and said, “Brother Lu, who am I?” You and I know each other in poverty, we are brothers and sisters, I wait for friendship, what is the white body of the district official? Come with me in, the house has already reserved a room for you.
With that, he walked to the back of the carriage and prepared to help with the luggage.
However, when I opened the door, I found that there was still a person sitting inside, and he looked sick, and he couldn’t help but be slightly stunned.
“I knew that Brother Sun would not change.”
Lu Yuan laughed loudly, walked to the carriage, helped Zhou Qing down, and then introduced to Sun Siwen, who looked confused next to him: “This is Zhou Qing, the child of a friend of mine.” Now that my friend is gone, I promised him to help take care of him.
Sun Siwen was slightly stunned, and then reacted, who Lu Yuan said about his friend. Looking at Zhou Qing, he said with a sad face: “Dr. Zhou has treated his father in the past, and I know that he is a good doctor with a wonderful hand and benevolence. Unexpectedly, he died.
Qinggongzi rest assured, since Brother Lu has accepted your father’s will, he will help take care of you. As a friend of Brother Lu, I will naturally regard you as a son and nephew.
From now on, you will be my junior family, and live in my house with peace of mind. When
Zhou
Qing heard that Sun Siwen was the deceased of Dr. Zhou, he suddenly remembered his father again, and his originally calm mood became sad again, and his eyes turned red in an instant.
But after all these days, the pain has long passed, but he can endure it and not shed tears.
“Okay, it’s already in a new place, let the past pass.”
Lu Yuan patted him on the shoulder, comforted, and then turned to Sun Siwen and said: “Brother Sun, help me mention the salute, I want to help Xiaoqing, I can’t get so much.” “Good
.”
Sun Siwen answered, took the salute, and led the way in front.
