Chapter 405 Fei Yue's knowledge
As the merchant ship penetrated the mist in the morning, a huge and busy pier gradually appeared in front of Xiao Ming.
This wharf is not here, it is the Tuojiang wharf north of Qingzhou City.
It took a total of ten days to sail from Chang'an to Qingzhou, and overall it was smooth and smooth.
In the first half of the trip, Fei Yue'er wiped her tears all day because she missed her parents, but in the second half, she gradually became familiar with Xiao Ming and immersed in the scenery along the road.
After all, Fei Yue'er is only ten years old, and she is at the age of being playful. Once she loses her psychological burden, she will become lively.
As for the bad things he encountered in Chang'an these days, he no longer thought about. The second prince was just a passerby to him, and he deserved to be exiled now. The only drawback is that King Liang probably wouldn't consider this trade agreement at all.
But for the so-called, now there is a royal family, a Wei land, a Yong land, and a Chu land with the exchange of interests, these areas are enough for his goods to be sold for a period of time.
As for the future, maybe it would be possible to use a cannon to bombard it, because after this assassination, he became increasingly unconfidence in these princes, and his claim to fame was just a self-comfort from Queen Zhao and Xiao Wenxuan.
Although other princes will tolerate it for the time being, when the contradictions are irreconcilable one day, this controversy is still like taking off your pants and farting, and it will be a waste of time.
"Your Highness is back!"
The merchant ship had not arrived at the dock yet, and the officials who saw the merchant ship's flag had already started to cheer. Xiao Ming had been leaving for a month, and the officials and generals of the fiefdom were uneasy, and they felt as if they had lost their place in anything they did.
Xiao Ming stood on the merchant ship and saw the people who were greeting him on the dock, all the civil servants and military generals were there.
He said to Fei Yue'er: "Princess, I will introduce you to the officials in Qingzhou first."
As he said that, he pointed to the person ahead of the dock and said, "The man who is a bit rigid is called Pang Yukun. He is the chief of the king. The man with a beard on his right is Niu Ben, the great governor of the king, who controls the military affairs of the six states. The white-faced scholar on his left is called Zhan Xingchang, and the military advisor of the king. He looks gentle and quiet, but in fact he is full of bad water. The person behind Niu Ben is called Lu Fei..."
Fei Yue'er looked at Xiao Ming's fingers one by one, covering her mouth from time to time chuckled. Xiao Ming's introduction was elegant and interesting, and she easily became familiar with the names of these people.
The merchant ship gradually arrived at the dock with the current of the water. At this time, the boatman put down the board, and Xiao Ming and his group got off the boat.
Pang Yukun received the news that Xiao Ming was coming back this morning, so he took the officials here to wait, and the most important thing was to meet the princess.
At this time, the merchant ship arrived. When everyone saw Xiao Ming and an extremely beautiful woman walking side by side, they became scheming in their hearts and shouted: "See Your Highness, Princess."
After getting off the boat, Xiao Ming felt relieved. Here he finally didn't have to worry about a bunch of assassins coming out at any time.
The officials bowed and bowed, Fei Yue'er was a little at a loss. Xiao Ming smiled and said to her: "Don't be nervous, they are all my ministers, and they will also be your ministers in the future. Today they are mainly to pay homage to you."
Fei Yue'er nodded slightly when she heard this. After all, she was the daughter of Fiji and had seen the scene when Fiji received officials. So she straightened her body and tried to make the majesty that a princess should have. She said in a pleasant voice like a lark: "Don't give me any gifts."
There was a smile on Xiao Ming's lips. Fei Yue'er was a woman from a big family. She was very impressed by her and was still very generous. This "no gift" was also very loud.
"Thank you Your Highness, Princess Thank you." Pang Yukun and others stood up, but they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Fei Yue'er.
This is also a kind of etiquette in the Great Yu Kingdom. It is rude to stare at a woman, let alone a princess.
On the dock, a carriage was ready. Xiao Ming led Fei Yueer onto the carriage. At this time, Pang Yukun and others raised their heads and said to Xiao Ming: "Congratulations to Your Highness for winning the return of the beauty. Should we also send us some joy money to make everyone lively?"
Xiao Ming's relationship with his subordinates has always been very harmonious. He knew that these people would definitely want happy money, so he said, "The happy money is in Luo Xin's hands, you can get it yourself."
When everyone heard this, they immediately surrounded Luo Xin, while Lu Fei and other generals directly grabbed Luo Xin and began to search.
Looking at the crowd of officials playing together, Xiao Ming also boarded the carriage and headed towards Qingzhou City with Fei Yueer.
Fei Yue'er was patting her chest on the carriage. She was also a little nervous just now. Seeing a group of ministers playing on the dock, she smiled and said, "The relationship between Your Highness and the ministers is very harmonious."
"That's right, this is Qingzhou. Everything is not as solemn and old-fashioned as Chang'an. This is a vibrant city and will not be the same as Chang'an City in the future." Xiao Ming said proudly.
The first time he went to Chang'an, he was shocked by the prosperity. This second time he went to Chang'an City was already a little worse than Qingzhou.
He believed that in a few years, Qingzhou would surpass Chang'an City in all respects.
"Is that true? I have to take a closer look at Qingzhou." Fei Yue'er said as she opened the curtains in a small gap and looked at this strange place through the gap.
In her eyes, the official road from the pier to Qingzhou City was not yellow soil but a kind of silver ground, and merchants and carriages could not leave traces on it.
The sound of horse hooves is particularly loud on this road.
The carriage soon arrived at the city gate. At this time, two rows of soldiers in dark green uniforms saluted to the carriage with stick-shaped weapons on their backs.
The same road was the same when entering Qingzhou City, and for a moment, there were suddenly more people on the road.
The people who were coming and going were smiling, they were wearing clean cotton clothes, and the baskets in their hands contained various goods.
The merchants even wore silk and satin, leading carriages back and forth, looking very busy, and what surprised her even more was that there were some young men wearing white robes playing in groups on the streets, with the words "Bowen Academy" piercing the chest of the young men's robes.
When she raised her head, a huge object was floating past her head, and Fei Yueer was so scared that she put down the curtains.
Xiao Ming laughed at this time, "How about my king's Qingzhou? Isn't it very magical?"
Fei Yue'er was still in shock. She didn't see the hot air balloons rising from the palace. She nodded at this time and said, "The people in Qingzhou seem to be very rich than the people along the way. The number of merchants is as high as Chang'an. But Your Highness, what is the thing flying in the sky?"
"This is a hydrogen balloon." Xiao Ming smiled.
Fei Yue'er exclaimed: "Isn't it a hot air balloon? What is this hydrogen balloon?"
