Chapter 453 Group outing
The next day, when the rising autumn sun shone the first ray of golden light on the imperial city, the large and prepared troops set off in an orderly manner.
Zi Yu, who was riding side by side with Li Bai, saw hardly anyone on the street along the way. Most of the shops were closed, and even the small vendors carrying burdens were nowhere to be seen.
She raised her head and looked down at the morning sun. The autumn wind was blowing slowly, and the sunshine was warm and comfortable. She felt a little regretful.
“It’s truly a holiday for the whole city, everyone shouldn’t be sleeping in!
Even the vendors are no longer doing business, so I have no chance to order some snacks. "
“It’s still early, there’s still an hour before we open for business, and there will definitely be a lot of people staying in bed on the first day of the holiday.
After working hard for a few days, who doesn’t crave the warmth of the bed?
That’s right, daughter-in-law! "
The way Li Bai winked ambiguously made him look like a good-looking commoner, completely incompatible with the noble status of Imperial Preceptor.
“The colors in your head are not representative of everyone.
It is impossible for singles and the elderly to stay in bed and sleep in! There are also energetic children who are not allowed to go out early to buy something good to eat. "
Ziyu didn't believe this man's nonsense. He had been coaxing her as if she had just given birth to triplets for a few years. Could it be that she really thought she was pregnant for nine years.
The triplets riding ponies behind them twitched their ears and grinned when they heard their parents' words.
【My parents don’t know how strong their appeal is, and they will be surprised soon. 】
When they were approaching the gate of the city, Ziyu saw some people dragging their families and their families, carrying baggage and hurried out of the city.
She just thought those people were taking advantage of the holiday to go out of the city to visit relatives, and she didn't take it seriously.
But as soon as he left the city gate, Ziyu was dumbfounded.
…
There was a long queue outside the city gate, with horse-drawn carriages, mule carts, donkey carts, ox carts, frame carts and push carts all available.
The hawkers carrying the burdens were busy dealing with the customers buying food, and the business was so good that they had no time to greet the customers.
Many vendors have run out of snacks, and there are still people coming up to ask questions.
"Second brother, second brother and sister, come quickly. I've grabbed two bowls of tofu puffs for you. They're still warm."
Zhong Lisheng, who was dressed in regular clothes, rushed back to Yundu overnight as soon as he got the official document about his holiday yesterday.
Although the three brothers are all in Daxia, it is rare for them to get together, so they will definitely not miss this rare opportunity.
I took my family out of the city early in the morning to wait. I saw vendors selling food outside. I bought a few of everything and tried a few bites. I thought it was good quality and cheap.
The general in town, who rarely eats from roadside stalls, actually feels like he has returned to his childhood. At that time, he went to the streets with his parents, and what he was most greedy for was the snacks he carried on his shoulders.
Nowadays, snacks are more diverse, making people unable to stop eating them. Especially the barbecue street in the evening, the business is booming.
It is deeply loved by the people and is also a good place for men to invite and connect with each other.
…
"Brother, the scene outside the city is big enough. Half of the people in the city are here!"
Ziyu saw people who were busy eating snacks, and looked at her with a flattering smile, plus the baggage they carried and the carriages and horses around them.
What is there to understand? These well-informed people want to go hunting with us!
It is said to be hunting, but in fact it is to relax on the grassland.
Take ordinary people hunting, it is better to take them to see the scenery that is different from Yundu.
…
The students and teachers from the four major academies in uniform uniforms bowed their hands in this direction from a distance.
Ziyu saw that each of them was carrying a picture folder, which meant they were going to collect pictures.
Thinking of this, Ziyu turned to look at the students of the Royal Academy, all of whom were riding horses.
Wearing uniform cavalry and archery uniforms and carrying quivers on their backs, they were already looking around excitedly, but no one broke the order of the team. The Golden Eagle family couldn't wait any longer and flew out of sight early, while Snow Wolf and Tiger stayed behind to guard the palace with Manager Qiu.
The dissatisfied roars of the snow wolves and tigers who were unable to travel together could be heard at the city gate.
Well, the people were so enthusiastic, how could she refuse.
However, we still need to be reminded, after all, the grassland is not as safe as everyone thinks.
“Are you ready when you go out?
At this season, the nights on the grasslands are much colder than the days. It is better for those who are delicate and frail to go home.
The purpose of going out for fun is to have fun, quarrels, vomiting, etc. are not allowed! "
The voice with a hint of inner strength spread far away, and everyone cheered for this approachable words.
“Xie Dijun reminded us that we have all done our research in advance and are well prepared.”
"Don't worry, Emperor! We are ready and just waiting for the order to set off."
…
Bactria is becoming increasingly prosperous. Due to its good public security and transportation, the corresponding tourism industry has also entered a prosperous period.
During the off-season period, many people put aside their work in the fields and travel together or as a family.
There are government-operated horse-drawn carriages between the prefectures, which are cheap and safe. If you want to save money, you can also walk.
This gives many people who have never left the county town a chance to go out.
All of this gives people more travel experience.
“Now that you’re ready, let’s go!”
Ziyu is not a moji, all she can do is guide, and she relies more on everyone when she is away from home.
The large army of Qiuyou, headed by the emperor and the national division, marched directly to the northern prairie via Huaide Mansion.
After three years of rest and recuperation, the northern prairie has become a golden ocean in this golden autumn.
The northern prairie has not only veritable prairie, but also red, yellow and green forests, surrounded by wetlands and rivers.
The northern prairie with abundant water and grass provides a large amount of meat to the people of the central and southern prefectures every year.
…
When a group of people first entered the edge of the northern prairie, they were immediately attracted by the golden ocean in front of them.
“Ah, we have fallen into wonderland! This is so beautiful!”
“It would be great if I could live here for a long time!”
“Hahaha, like a wheat field during the autumn harvest.”
“Oooh~ooh~, come and catch the hare!”
…
The exclamations and sighs of tens of thousands of people immediately frightened the hares hiding in the grass so much that they urinated and fled in all directions.
The excited crowd threw all their reservations away at the sight of the lively hare.
Even the masters of the college rolled up their sleeves and joined the pursuit.
For a time, laughter, cheers, and shouts were loud, and some people even knocked on pots to cheer.
Ziyu and Libai were both one head and two big, because the group of people stepped on the grass behind them, and they all lay on the ground as if they had been violently destroyed.
“This is quite destructive! Will it affect the growth of the pasture next year?” Ziyu said worriedly.
“Mother, everything will be fine. The pasture will be full of vitality again after spring.
The northern prairie covers more than five million square kilometers, and the existing livestock on the grassland simply cannot eat them all. "Hongliang explained in time.
