Dihao's civilian life

Chapter 95 Growth

Among the survivors of the empire who fled to Guifang at the beginning, the Luosi clan was the most numerous. Several of them knew how to write imperial scripts, and were left by the former ruler to serve in Guiyi.The arrival of the survivors of the empire brought talents to the front, as well as the lacquerware and jade treatment techniques of the empire.

Although the two southwest roads are blocked, the north is unimpeded, leading to Dibang, and the east faces the sea, and the Yi tribe can be reached by sailing.The location of Guifang is unique. It was originally a place where goods from all over the world gathered.

The people of Qiong and Jinyi did not completely seal off the dead side and forced the other side to submit. The country is still rich, strong and self-reliant.Guifang has such a strong body, because Guijun Li Zhong is a recognized Mingjun, and he also has a long life span.

Since coming to Guiyi, Si Hao has often stayed by Guijun's side, one old and one young discussing the matter of opening up the two roads in Guifang's southwest.Both of them believed that the blockade of the Qiongren on the West Road (Guidao) would be weaker than that of the South Road. As long as they used the power of Kun Rong to attack from both sides, the Qiongren would definitely have to withdraw from the West Road.

The question now is how to notify Kunrong and agree with them on the date to attack the Qiongren.

"Someone needs to be able to pass through the poisonous fog forest of Tianqi Mountain, and have the courage to go to Kunrong via the west peak of Yushan Mountain." Si Hao proposed this method, which is also the only feasible method.

"It's not difficult. Call a few Kunrong people who live in Guiguo. As long as they are willing to go on a mission, I will send guards to escort them." Mr. Gui had this idea a long time ago. He knew that this passage existed, thanks to Si Hao's arrival.

"It's not appropriate to send guards. I'm afraid it will disturb Yushanlong. As long as you recruit three or five Kunrong people, you can go out." There are many people and the goal is big. If you don't provoke Yushanlong, you are afraid of being discovered by the Qiong people.Si Hao took out a piece of cloth, presented it, and said to Mr. Gui, "I have drawn the route, and following this route, I can reach Kunrong safely."

Jun Jun took the cloth and opened it, on which the mountains, forests and passages were clearly drawn, which was clear at a glance.He browsed through it, put away the cloth, and handed it to an attendant beside him for safekeeping.

"When did the emperor draw the mountain map?"

"Draw it on the way to Guiyi."

"At that time, the emperor already had the intention to contact Kunrong?"

"I am in Kunrong, and I have won the favor of Kun Jijin, the leader of the army. I once discussed with him the way to open up the rules. At that time, I was also thinking about the joint rule."

Listening to the young man's words, the former gentleman was surprised. Before coming to the front, the emperor must have thought through everything in the future.Gui Jun intends to test: "If the West Road is opened, will the emperor stay in the former land, or return to Heluo via the Rong land?"

"At that time, I will stay in the former place. I hope that Fang Fang and Ren Fang will join hands to open up the South Road and drive the Qiong people out of Jinyuan." Si Hao rarely showed a smile on his face. What he said was true. resolutely.Mr. Gui could see from his smile that opening up the South Road was the ultimate goal of the emperor.Mr. Gui secretly marveled that the emperor was using his strength to help the former side break through the blockade, and it was also paving the way for his restoration of the country.

Jun Jun smiled and said: "The emperor is really admirable." Si Hao raised the corners of his mouth, bowed to Jun Jun, and said, "Because the two places have been separated by people for many years, there is no news. In fact, Uncle Ren has always had this Mind."

Jun Jun showed joy and said: "If we can really expel the people of Qiong and prevent them from invading the former country, I am willing to do my best for the emperor's son's great cause of restoring the country!"

At this time, in the eyes of Mr. Gui, Si Hao is no longer a young man, but a calm and talented monarch.With only one entourage, this man dared to pass through Rongdi and come here.He looks weak, but in fact, there is a huge force behind him, and when the time is right, it will gather into a huge wave.

A few days later, Mr. Gui recruited three Kunrong people, and arranged two other warriors from the Gui people to form a five-member team.The team set off from Guiyi, arrived at the Guixi camp, and obtained herbs from the physician Chi.After some rest, the team set off for Kunrong.

At this time, the war between Kun Rong and Di Ren had just ended, and the two sides had been beaten bruised and swollen. They didn't take any advantage, so they rested and repaired.

During the days in Guiyi, Si Hao got to know many veterans of the empire, he treated them with respect, and was regarded by them as having the benevolence of the emperor.Among the old ministers of the empire who lived in front of him, there was a minister of the emperor who was honored as Bomi.Bomi was Emperor Xiang's right and left arm back then, and he was loyal.He led the emperor's army, fought against Jinyi and Qiongren several times, and was familiar with the situation of the enemy army.

Bomi did not serve under Guijun, but chose to live in seclusion in the southern suburbs of Guiyi.

Si Hao took Yusu with him, and the two drove to the southern suburbs to visit Bomi in person.When I came to the door of Bomi’s house, I saw a bamboo house. In the courtyard of the bamboo house, an old man was sitting under a tree, talking with his grandson.

The old man is Bomi, with white beard and kind eyes. It is hard to imagine that he led the army to fight against Jin and barbarians.He was heard to have fought many brutal battles, and was a general who crawled from the dead.

Si Hao and Yu Su stepped forward to salute, Bomi looked at Si Hao calmly, obviously he already knew Si Hao's background.The news that the emperor's son came to Guiyi spread widely, and Bomi's family often had friends from the Luosi clan.

Bomi's eyes fell on Si Hao at first, and then he looked at Yu Su intently, it seemed that Yu Su interested him more.When Bomi's grandson saw guests coming, he quickly took out the chairs and spread them out in the courtyard, inviting Si Hao and Yu Su to sit down.

Bo Mi said to Si Hao in an old voice: "The emperor has been in Guiyi for a long time, do you want to live in Guiyi for a long time?"

"I'm about to leave for Luoxi, and I'm here to visit Bomi today." Si Hao spoke frankly and had a humble attitude.The survivors of the empire in the north mainly lived in Luoxi in the south of the city.

Hearing what Si Hao said, Bomi nodded and replied: "The emperor went to Luoxi and lived there. No matter how prosperous the city is, it is also someone else's city."

Since fleeing to the north, nine out of ten ordinary people among the survivors of the empire live in Luoxi.They failed to live a prosperous life in the township, cultivated and built houses in the barren land, and lived a hard life.The number of these people is the largest, and they are the most important subjects of Si Hao.

"Thank you Bomi for your teaching, I will stay in Luoxi." Si Hao had this intention, and he had a clear view of his future life.

"I heard that the emperor's son can ride a horse?"

"Learn horsemanship in Kunrong."

"The emperor has such a thaumaturgy, he should pass it on to others and build his own cavalry."

"Yes." Si Hao nodded.The cavalry is extremely fast, which is convenient for spying on the enemy and transmitting information.

Bo Mi looked at Yu Su who was sitting on the table, and he turned to ask him: "I heard that the son of the Yu family can understand the emperor's language?" Yu Su bowed respectfully, and replied: "Yes."

"Azhou." Bomi called his grandson, Sizhou, who immediately stepped forward and replied, "Father." He was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked very energetic.

"Come to my room and bring the Book of Mo."

"Yes, Father."

Si Zhou went back to the house, quickly took out a silk book, and presented it to his grandfather.Bomi took it, passed it to Yu Su, and said to him: "This is the record of the emperors and ministers discussing state affairs in the ancient emperor's time. In today's world, there are only two copies, one for you and one for me. You must take good care of this book. Studying it will be of great benefit in the future.”

Yu Su knelt on the ground, held the silk book in both hands, and said gratefully: "Thank you Bomi for the gift." There are very few people who know Diwen, let alone those who own books.

There are not many books in the whole world, most of them are owned by the monarch and are not circulated.Yu Su didn't know that the "Book of Mo" originally belonged to the emperor of the imperial state, and was later rewarded by the emperor to Bomi, but he knew the value of the book.

"Get up." Bo Mi signaled Yu Su to get up. He had high hopes for this descendant of the Yu family.The reason why he valued Yu Su so much was that he would be the emperor's assistant minister in the future.His experience is quite unique, he and the emperor lived and died together.

Before leaving, Si Hao and Yu Su thanked Bomi repeatedly, and Bomi said: "I was defeated by Jin Peng back then, and I was unwilling to live on." He pulled his grandson over and said, "My grandson is smart , I have been teaching him military tactics recently, and when the emperor attacks Xunqiu, please be sure to bring him with him."

"Bo Mi doesn't need to blame himself, it was God's will to defeat the army back then. When Xunqiu is really attacked in the future, I will definitely come to the southern suburbs to ask for advice." Si Hao bid farewell, feeling quite moved in his heart.Knowing shame and then being brave, the father who was defeated, and himself who was eager to avenge his shame, are so similar to Bomi's grandparents.

The two left Bomi's house, with Si Hao sitting in the carriage and Yu Su driving, they were divided into monarchs and ministers.The car was far away, and Yu Su was sitting in the carriage. He slowly unfolded the silk script on his lap and read it word by word.

"Knowing people is wise, and being able to judge people. Peace of mind is beneficial, and people's love is..."

Si Hao was driving, listening in front and thinking in his heart.These are the wisdom of those who came before, and such wisdom is priceless.Unknowingly, the two of them have surpassed their peers, not only in experience, but also in knowledge.

The next day, Si Hao and Yu Su bid farewell to Mr. Gui, as well as a group of remnants of the empire in Guiyi, and they went to Luoxi under the escort of a group of soldiers.The two sat in a cart, driven by the imperial husband, and there was a carriage behind them for transporting property.

The former king's rewards were extremely generous, and the veterans of the empire also presented silk and shellfish coins one after another.During the days in Guiyi, Si Hao convinced them, and they believed that he would be able to achieve a great career.

There are many large and small settlements on both sides of the Luoxi River. The Luosi people live on the left side, and the Xunren live on the right side. Their clothing, food and customs are slightly different.In any case, the arrival of the emperor made the people of Luoxi extremely excited.They came out from a distance to greet them, and watched them side by side, very excited.

The population of residents here is large, no less than a city, and most of them are young and strong.Ordinary people have a short lifespan, and it is rare to see people in their 50s and [-]s, and life is relatively difficult.

As soon as Si Hao came to Luoxi, he called the leaders of the settlements to the longhouse at Xitou to discuss matters.Outside the long house, there are soldiers from Guiyi, carrying elite weapons, very impressive.The leaders have long heard that the emperor is coming to Luoxi, and they have their own thoughts when facing Si Hao.They are not as straightforward as ordinary people, and their joy for the arrival of the emperor comes from the heart.

Si Hao asked them to report the population of their respective settlements, the condition of the old and the weak, and Yu Su took the writing brush and wrote it down on a wooden tablet beside him.This was the first time the leaders saw Di Wen, and they couldn't help feeling awe.

After learning the situation of each settlement, Si Hao distributed part of the property to the leaders and asked them to organize wine and dinner for the people.

In Luoxi, Si Hao made people get used to his presence in less than ten days.A few days later, he asked the people to build a house at Xitou and a smelting workshop at the foot of Luoshan Mountain.

The house was built, with high foundations, spacious rooms, and otherwise very simple. This was the house of Si Hao and Yu Su.Later, people in Luoxi called this house: Emperor's House, and the soldiers' houses distributed around the Emperor's House were collectively called Emperor's Camp.

Yu Su distributed the wheat seeds brought from Kunrong to the common people. Wheat was also grown locally, but the ears of wheat were thin and thin.

After the smelting workshop camp was built, Si Hao gathered all the smelting workers in Luoxi, barely five or six people.Si Hao brought these five or six people, plus a dozen or so apprentices, to cast weapons in the workshop.

In winter, snowflakes are flying outdoors, the smelting workshop is full of heat, and the casting craftsmen are shirtless.

One season passed, and in the farmland by the stream, Kunrong wheat seedlings grew, and the tender green wheat seedlings were pressed under the thin snow.Yu Su was in the emperor's room, kneeling in front of the wooden desk and writing, while Si Hao was beside him, chatting about asking a woman to cut winter clothes.While writing, Yu Su said that no one else would do it for him, and he would do the tailoring.He wanted to make Si Hao's clothes by himself, but his own clothes didn't matter.

The two were talking, when they suddenly heard the rattle of carriages and horses outside the house, Si Hao looked out the window and saw a carriage sent by Guiyi.There is an envoy on the carriage, and the envoy holds a talisman in his hand, which is easy to identify.

"Ah Hao, who is it?" Yu Su put down the brush and raised his head. He saw the smile on the corner of Si Hao's mouth widening.Si Hao smiled and replied: "The envoy from Guiyi, it seems that the team sent to Kunrong has brought back news."

In autumn, the team that crossed Tianqi Mountain, took Yushan, and headed for Kunrong should have completed the task at this time and returned to Guiyi to return to command.
