I live in Dayu Changsheng

Chapter 205, Dragon Veins

In the early morning, mist like smoke curls up, and among the vegetation, there is frost like moonlight, with a touch of coldness.

When that round of red sun rose from the sky, not only did the light coldness not dissipate, but it became more and more intense.

In winter, that's it.

The sun came out, and thousands of hectares of light red sunlight fell softly, without the scorching heat of the summer sun. Being warmed under such sunlight, there was a drowsy and comfortable feeling.

In the Baiyu Pavilion.

Trivial light and shadows fell in, and Yu Yunlan's plain white dress seemed to be shining with light, and her whole body was pure and beautiful.

Fang Rui played chess with her, discussing Dao, talking, occasionally mixed with some knowledge, not serious, just chatting casually.

Yu Yunlan is quiet and doesn't talk much, but with him around, he won't be cold.

Xin Xueer held the illustrated book on her knees, and read every line.

This is a children's story of this era, with illustrations, and the little girl read it with gusto. This is a new world she discovered after learning and recognizing characters.

Hualing Xiaonian'er likes to be lively, but no one is playing, so she has to fly back to the painting. The scroll is laid flat and warmed in the sun, and she seems to be asleep in it.

"twitter!"

All kinds of birds got up, and the calls of all kinds of birds intertwined and could not be heard clearly; in the crystal-clear stream, white, gray, and blue stones could be seen. The gills moved suddenly, and ran away with a swish.

In such an environment, Fang Rui and Yu Yunlan played three or two games of chess.

Wait for Yu Yunlan to read.

Fang Rui started to practice for half an hour.

In the past, his aptitude was scum, and he didn't have the slightest sense of penance. Now that his aptitude has been greatly improved, he can feel the fascinating charm of cultivation.

After the training was over, he began to sort out the information that was polluted and purified by Daheitian in the communication with Heaven and Dao. It was complicated and disorganized, and most of it was useless. What Fang Rui had to do was to find out the useful ones, combine them, and form skills, roughly similar to Digging for gold in shit.

When the time came, Xin Xueer reluctantly put down the illustrated book and began to practice and write.

Just doing these things is plain, but not boring, especially, with a peerless beauty like Yu Yunlan by her side, just looking at it is pleasing to the eye and the mood will unconsciously improve.

"A few days ago, I was still fighting against the black sky to save the world. Now, I have entered the ordinary daily life of retirement!"

Fang Rui stretched his waist, shining brightly in the rising sun.

……

noon.

Fang Rui didn't want to cook, so he proposed to go out to eat and play in the afternoon.

"Xue'er, have you been in the palace these days, are you exhausted?" He patted the little girl's head and asked.

"Fortunately, Sister Li taught me a lot..."

Xin Xueer said, and suddenly looked at Yu Yunlan: "Sister Yu is different again!"

"A small spell."

With Yu Yunlan's fairy appearance, if he went to the city without concealment, it would not be an exaggeration at all to cause chaos like Pan An's.

Such a small concealing spell endows a filter-like light, which looks ordinary to others, but only Fang Rui and Xin Xueer can see the true face.

This is a habit formed by Shangqingshen.

Yu Yunlan was also her, but after all, this was the first time the deity went out with Fang Rui. At this moment, she asked unconfidently, "Fang Daoyou, is this okay? Shall I change clothes?"

"That's not necessary. In terms of appearance, Yu Daoyou is the No. 1 I have seen. This is beautiful." Fang Rui shook his head with a smile.

When Yu Yunlan heard this, a slight blush appeared on her beautiful jade face, and her head was slightly tilted.

That cold and reserved beauty is just like that poem, the most is the gentleness of bowing the head, the shyness like a water lotus that cannot withstand the cool breeze.

Fang Rui and his party did not have a carriage, they walked out and went to the street.

As we go deep into this ancient city, we come to the busy city, and the smoke and fire in the world, accompanied by the sound of selling, rushes towards our faces.

"The newly arrived cloth from Luchun in Yizhou is famous all over the world, today's [-]% off!"

"Liangzhou mules and horses, plowing, grinding flour, transporting goods...don't miss it!"

"Yuezhou black potato, with an yield of [-] shi per mu, come and see the farmers!"

……

The war has passed, the current situation is stable, and the Nanyu court has loosened policies to encourage commerce, encourage the spread of good seeds, and materials from various states are transported.

Jianye, the capital city of Nanyu, is developing with great vigor and vitality.

Listen to the wind tower.

Fang Rui had spent a lot of time in Jianye, so he naturally knew the famous food here.

"The buttered tea and salted duck in Tingfenglou are a must. Come, fellow Daoist Yu, try it!"

He picked up the pancake as thin as cicada's wings, rolled up steaming golden-yellow salted duck meat and vegetables, and handed it to Yu Yunlan.

"Thank you."

Surprise flashed across Yu Yunlan's cold eyes, and he took it.

In this era, the status of women is very low. Even if there are loving and harmonious couples, there are very few men who can serve women to eat, but Fang Rui does it very naturally.

With complicated emotions, she opened her red lips lightly and took a bite. In her mouth, the fragrance of duck fat and the tenderness of vegetables mixed together and exploded on her taste buds. It was fat but not greasy, leaving an aftertaste between her lips and teeth.

Such delicacies make people unconsciously bend their eyebrows and eyes.

"Fang Daoyou eats too." Yu Yunlan thought for a while, learned to roll up one, and handed it over.

"Oh, Uncle and Sister Yu are like husband and wife!"

Xin Xueer's big black jewel-like eyes turned around nimbly, and said suddenly.

If Li Zhao were here, he would definitely slap her on the head: "Well, co-author, I spoiled you for nothing a few days ago!" '

Following the little girl's words, the air suddenly became quiet.

"Children's words are innocent, don't blame Daoist Yu."

Fang Rui stuffed the rolled duck meat over, "Xue'er, this is yours, shut up."

"Ah, thank you uncle!"

Like a big cat, Xin Xueer lowered her head and entered the barrier alone. She stopped talking, couldn't hear anything, couldn't see anything, and ate deliciously.

She lived in poverty when she was a child, but now that she is a little older, the conditions are very good. She still has a special love and cherish for food, and she must eat clean every time.

Well, in the words of Fang Rui's previous life, this is a snack, the cutest kind of snack.

The three of them enjoyed the food while listening to the sounds outside.

"The empress is so unwise!" One person put down the wine cup and sighed suddenly.

"Isn't it? There is no reason in the world to reduce or exempt farmers and small merchants from taxation, but to impose heavy taxes on the property of us officials and eunuchs?" There was anger in this voice.

"The most absurd thing is, I heard that the empress wants to expand the state examination, what kind of scientific examination, let those humble common people compete with me on the same stage, isn't this nonsense?" table.

"Yeah, it's unreasonable!" Another person felt the same way.

"I also heard that the Empress wants to promote women's status. In my opinion, women may still be officials in the future!" This was said in a mocking and exaggerated tone, as a joke.

"Hahahaha!"

Immediately, there was a roar of laughter, obviously it was all taken as a joke, and I didn't think that such a thing would come true.

……

"What do fellow Daoist Yu think of these?"

Fang Rui asked.

In fact, many of these things were learned by Li Zhao from him on the Internet.

"I think it's a good thing." Yu Yunlan said after thinking for a while.

"Wrong! It is a good thing for the people of Li, but it is very bad for these people. In the eyes of this person, princes, generals, and families of officials should be rich and prosperous for generations. , share their glory?"

Fang Rui sneered: "The ass determines the head!"

"Yes."

Yu Yunlan took it seriously, nodded and said: "Nanyu is like the rising sun, and it is setting off a revolution. You don't need to worry too much, Fellow Daoist Fang."

"Haha, that's right. In my opinion, the Empress is doing a great cause that has never been done before or since. They should be the ones to worry about."

Fang Rui pointed to the outside: "As the saying goes, the general trend is so hot, such people who bark and bark are like a mantis holding a cart, and will eventually be run over mercilessly by the wheels of history."

"Besides, the gentry control the right to speak, but in my case, it doesn't count. It counts when the common people say it. Later, let's go outside and have a look."

have eaten.

Xin Xueer just came out of a person's barrier, touched her stomach, jumped up and down, one left and one right, and dragged Fang Rui and Yu Yunlan onto the street.

After turning two corners and slipping past a few stalls, the little girl had more snacks in her hands.

She had just eaten, but she was able to eat it, and her mouth babbled, which made people worry that if she kept eating, her stomach would burst.

While shopping, Fang Rui would also ask random questions and chat with stall owners.

"Those ruffians who bullied people were all arrested and built roads. The court has done a good job!"

"Last month, the Niu's family next door gave birth to a child, and they didn't pay the poll tax. I heard that the poll tax will be exempt from now on!"

"There are a lot of things in the market, from all over the world. It is said that the black potato yields thirty shi per mu. I don't know if it is true or not. If I can have twenty shi, I will be satisfied!"

……

This is the voice of the common people. Contrary to those officials and eunuchs, although most of them also think that it may not be appropriate for the female emperor to subvert the impression, they basically do not say bad things.

Because they have steelyards in their hearts, they are the most clear, and the current life is much better than before.

Came to a sugar seller's booth.

"Ma'am, what do you think of the empress?" Yu Yunlan asked following Fang Rui's example.

"Empress, I heard from others that the hen... the hen..."

"The hen wakes up in the morning."

"Yes, Chicken Sichen, that's the word!"

The aunt slapped her head: "I don't know what these scholars mean. It shouldn't be obedient, but I think His Majesty is quite nice. My son is going to be a soldier, and the fields are all divided!"

"Ma'am, is your son joining the army?" Fang Rui asked.

"Yes, my four sons, except the youngest eight-year-old, the three older ones have all gone."

Speaking of this, the smile on the aunt's face faded a bit: "It's just that the eldest baby and the second baby are dead, and the third baby also has a broken arm..."

Fang Rui and Yu Yunlan fell silent when they heard the words.

"Hey, how can anyone not die in a war? Fortunately, what military merits have been awarded, and 120 acres of land have been awarded, which is enough for my third and fourth children to get married and marry their wives!"

The aunt said, her face full of gratitude: "The 120 mu of land, all of which have been distributed, are all good fields outside the city. The court is well, your majesty is well!"

She chattered, blowing the candy figure with caramel in her hand.

Maybe it's because of the cuteness of the little girl, but this candy figure is twice as big as the others.

Fang Rui gave double the amount of money, but the aunt didn't want it.

"I've been doing this for a while, so I won't do it, take a break... Sanwa will go to the Tang Mansion to redeem his sister's body. When the time comes, my children will be by my side, and I will be able to enjoy life in peace!"

The aunt said so.

Fang Rui handed the sugar figurine to the little girl, quietly put down a piece of broken silver, and left with Yu Yunlan.

"Fang Daoyou seems to have feelings?"

"Yes, a long time ago..."

Fang Rui said, shaking his head.

He remembered that at the beginning of the time travel, pretending to be a grandson in front of Lord Tiger was the most correct choice under the circumstances, but it was the tragedy of the times.

Think about what you have seen and heard before.

Fang Rui said from the bottom of his heart: "Ordinary people, what extravagance can they expect? To maintain law and order; to collect less taxes; to have a better year and good harvests, that's enough..."

"As long as relative fairness is maintained, punishments are not harsh, and the weather is more favorable, they will create wealth themselves, and that will be a peaceful and prosperous age."

"On the contrary, corrupt officials and powerful families are the ones who are greedy and have insatiable desires..."

Fang Rui smirked: "They can't wait to keep the level of oppression at the bottom line of people not rebelling."

"Fang Daoyou has the world in his heart." Yu Yunlan was silent for a while, and said softly.

"Have the world in mind? Worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joys later, but I can't do it. I... I'm just an ordinary person!"

Fang Rui waved his hand: "Forget it, let's not talk about these things, let's go, today we will only travel around the mountains and rivers, and not talk about world affairs."

He pulled the little girl and went forward.

rear.

Yu Yunlan looked at Fang Rui's back, which seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light under the sun, and was slightly absent-minded.

She had seen Fang Rui in the three southwestern states, setting up the overall situation, swallowing mountains and rivers like a tiger; she had also seen Fang Rui, when fighting side by side, Fang Rui was decisive, ruthless, and decisive; today she saw another side, compassion and empathy for the bottom people.

'Fang Daoyou, you really see the bottom class as a human being, special, unique, and unique in the world. '

Yu Yunlan smiled, such a beautiful smile, like spring flowers blooming, and the moonlight suddenly falling, seemed to make the world eclipsed by it, but unfortunately, no one saw it.

She seemed to be thinking about it, she shook her head slightly, and quickly chased after him.

……

Xuanwu Lake.

Fang Rui rented a small boat and went on a lake trip with Yu Yunlan and Xin Xueer.

The weather is fine, and the water of Xuanwu Lake is green and blue, like a huge mirror. The boats pass by, sparking ripples, and the circles of water are sparkling with sunlight.

From time to time, the big fish under the water can be seen turning around and swimming, and the gulls and herons on the surface of the water are like sharp arrows passing by.

"If you look down from a high altitude, the entire Xuanwu Lake is just like a shining gem. The scenery here is really good." Fang Rui said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, this Xuanwu Lake is a node in the dragon veins of the Nineteen States."

"Oh? This statement is rather strange."
