Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 146 The Shocked Outsider
1Chapter 16 The Shocked Outsider
Seeing that he was defeated in the first round, He Tao secretly thought it was bad luck.

When Qin Yang asked if there were any people who would not participate in this year's Ice Sculpture Festival, he could only stand up bravely and said that Bo Ling would not participate in this year's Ice Sculpture Festival either.

Qin Yang nodded casually and said, "Yes."

It really didn't make it difficult for him to confirm this matter.

When he came out of the conference hall, Zhang Deyuan and He Tao looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy.

Zhang Deyuan lowered his voice and said: "Tell me, did we do something wrong this time?"

"Why do you say that?"

Zhang Deyuan said: "It is true that if the enemy opposes it, it may be doing the right thing, but if the enemy supports it, it means doing the wrong thing. Both of us proposed not to participate in this year's Ice Sculpture Festival. Look at which one, Has it changed color?"

Of course there is no such thing.

But that doesn't mean anything either.

"Perhaps he was already prepared and knew that we would not be with him, so he guessed that we would not participate." He Tao said disapprovingly.

Although Youzhou King's performance was different from what they expected, He Tao still didn't think the other party was anything special.

Seeing his companion's reaction, Zhang Deyuan could only swallow the following words into his stomach.

As soon as the carriages left the Youzhou Palace, they went straight to the city gate. Before noon, they had to go back as soon as possible.Some of them are far away, and they may have to stay outside for a day or two.

And a group of people who walked, or sat in donkey carts or ox carts came to Youzhou at this time.

"Oh my god, this is Youzhou? It's not the same as what the old people said before! This place is much more luxurious than ours!"

A young peasant woman who had just entered a small border town in Youzhou looked around in shock, feeling that she couldn't get enough of it.

Her husband also had almost the same expression, the two of them were like bumpkins entering the city.

But they came here in a donkey cart, and they lived in a county adjacent to Youzhou, and their family was considered a little rich. Before, they always thought that their lives were better than their relatives in Youzhou.

Even because Youzhou is too poor, younger generations are reluctant to visit relatives in previous years.

If their father hadn't broken his leg this year, the young couple had to come here. I'm afraid that the impression of Youzhou in their minds will always be the "backcountry" in others' mouths.

But look at this small town they just entered, everything here is so novel and unique!

The snow has melted, and the ground is clean. I don’t know how the road was built. It looks like a long, endless rock!

But I also want to know, how can there be such a long stone in this world?

Looking at the shops on both sides, most of them have been refurbished, and they look tidy. People come in and out from time to time, and they are all dressed in fashionable styles!

The woolen hats that the young peasant women had seen on the heads of their local landowner women were everywhere here!
In addition to woolen hats, there are also gloves and sweaters of the same texture!
The children were dressed thickly, with flushed faces, and most of them were sitting on a flatbed trolley, being pushed and run wildly by the people behind.

The sound of laughter spread in the street, and the adults often looked over with smiles on their faces!

Even if the changes here are just these, the feeling it brings to outsiders is too different!

The young man couldn't help but said: "Father mentioned before that a prince came to Youzhou? Could it be because of that prince that Youzhou has changed so much?"

"My lord? Oh, it must be the boss's official, right? Maybe it's the emperor's son! If that's the case, there is an emperor's son in Youzhou, and it's hard for Youzhou not to change!"

The people at the bottom of the North Land have very few opportunities to get in touch with newspapers.

Some things that even ordinary children in Chang'an City know, are rarely mentioned here.

So they didn't know who the king of Youzhou was. When they heard that it was the prince, they thought it was the emperor's son.

This is enough to make them envious.

It is precisely because they believe that if the emperor's son is a prince in Youzhou, Youzhou will definitely change for the better, and their views on Youzhou have also changed.

"Then you said, there is no need to dissolve the verbal engagement between our sister and Uncle Zheng's family? Let's have a look first and then talk about it?"

In addition to visiting relatives, they came this time with another task, which was to withdraw the engagement.

More than ten years ago, when their old man came here to visit relatives, he was rescued by someone, and he verbally made a baby kiss with him.

More than ten years later, seeing the loss of Queen Yan in Youzhou, and getting poorer every year, the family who loves her daughter is not happy at the thought of marrying her to Youzhou.

But looking at it now, Youzhou seems to be showing signs of rising again?

If this is the case, maybe this place has become a blessed nest instead!

There are many people who have similar thoughts with them.

At this time of year, local people visit relatives, all after the new year.

But when people from other counties go to visit relatives, they usually take advantage of the period before the Chinese New Year.

After all, it's too cold here in Youzhou.

This time of year is even colder.

If it catches up with the heavy snow seal, it is impossible to leave even if you want to.

Therefore, it has become a common practice to visit relatives during the coldest time of the year.

Because of this, in the past few days, some outsiders have entered Youzhou one after another.

Before coming, they had a complete sense of superiority.

After all, they came to Youzhou to visit their relatives, bringing fish and meat, these two things must be rare in Youzhou!
As a result, as soon as he entered Youzhou, he was surprised by the changes in Youzhou.

After entering the relative's house, I was shocked again by the rich dishes on the dinner table of the relative's house.

That was the case with the young couple.

Relatives of their family live in a small village about twenty miles away from Youzhou County.

After inquiring all the way, I came to the place, entered the town, and found that the people in the town were walking like the wind, as if they were busy with something.

They didn't even see a few children, and the two looked at each other, feeling that something was going on here.

After inquiring, I came to the relative's house, the door of the relative's house was wide open, and there were several people inside, including men, women and children, discussing something.

From the gate here, you can hear the voices in the house.

The young couple held the reins of the donkey cart and shouted at the gate.

Immediately someone heard it and ran out.

The husband explained his identity and purpose of coming, and was warmly welcomed in.

When they arrived, they found it was meal time.

The people inside were sitting around on the kang, and three tables were placed inside and outside.

As soon as the young couple entered, the woman was called inside to sit with the women and children.

Husbands stay with outside men.

As soon as the young woman entered the back room, she felt a wave of heat rushing towards her face.

But when he scanned the ground from the corner of his eyes, he didn't see a brazier!
She was young and a guest, so she was too embarrassed to ask.

Don't mention how comfortable it is when you are called to take off your shoes and get on the kang, once you sit on the hot kang!

"Oh my god, what is this?"
