Chapter 81

There are ten miles and one hut, thirty miles and one hut, and fifty miles and one hut. Zhou Li stipulates that these public facilities must be available on the road to facilitate travelers’ travel. At the same time, each road has special maintenance to ensure smooth roads.

There are four types of road widths. The smallest road is the small road in Yunyao Caiyi that can only walk on a cattle and horse. Then there is a one-way road that can pass one car, a two-way road that can pass two cars side by side, and a three-way road that can pass three cars side by side.

Starting from Yunyao Caiyi, it is a one-way road, and then merges into the two-way road. The carriage moves forward leisurely, but Yunyao is not on the carriage, but walks behind the carriage because the carriage contains gifts.

In a large-scale sports meeting once a year, in addition to showing off his face, he also has to give gifts to the king. Although Yun Yao has already paid taxes, the gift is light and affection is heavy. What is important is his attitude towards the king, and the gift is not for nothing. If the gift is received, the king will return the gift.

This is also a way for nobles to communicate with each other. Yunyao brought some reed mats, bamboo baskets, and dried fish. The gifts were not shabby, because many barons couldn't even take out these things.

Yunyao looked at the surrounding scenery with great interest. The land was bare, and there were some housekeepers in the field that had not been cleaned. Occasionally, there were savages sitting on the ridges and passing the time leisurely, which seemed very comfortable.

Although the dirt road was bumpy, except for the occasional rut marks, it was still possible to walk overall. The group did not walk very quickly, so it was easy.

However, there was a sudden rapid sound of horse hooves ringing behind him, and then a team of horses flew past Yunyao with dust, shocking Yunyao's two variegated horses.

"Is it the Mou family?" Yunyao saw the white flag of the Mou family, with a black 'Mu' embroidered on it. This kind of thing is equivalent to the family emblem of the nobles, and the nobles would embroider the family on the flag and sway across the market.

Yunyao also has a flag belonging to the Zhu family on his carriage, which is not as grand as the Mou family. After all, the baron and the earl are much different.

"I don't politely." The teacher scoffed at the Mou family's behavior of riding a horse and was very disdainful.

"I guess I saw us, so I deliberately showed it to us." Yun Yao said. The Mou family was too slim and it was really possible to do this.

The Mou family's convoy had six vehicles, three people carrying people and three loading cars. They passed by Yunyao quickly and raised dust to wrap them up.

The Mou family is too bullying, and Yun Yao wrote a note of the small notebook in his heart.

In the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was not easy to gather people from all over the country for meetings. Everyone had a distance and had different arrival time. Therefore, the preparation time for the sausage ceremony was very abundant. It was notified in early September and it would not be held until the end of September, so the aristocratic doctors had enough time to travel.

Yunyao is only about thirty miles away from the capital, not far, so he didn't set off until the day before the archery ceremony and could arrive in the evening. Stay one night to attend tomorrow's archery ceremony.

"Du Niang, there is a car ahead and rushed out of the road." The carman stood high and looked far away, and found that a car accident was in front.

Yunyao looked from the back of the car and saw that the car was indeed lying on the side of the road, the axles were broken, and several people gathered together and were trying to unload the goods and preparing to repair the car.

"Go and help them."

Seeing that unevenly helped, Yunyao Lu led his retainers forward. All four horses had been unloaded, and at this time the road was turning into soil and looking for grassroots to eat. The boxes on the car were piled up on the road in a mess, and several men dressed in entourage were struggling to turn over the car to repair the car.

Yun Yao and his retainers went up to help and easily overturned the car.

"Thank you for your help, my daughter." Several men were already sweating profusely, and there was nothing they could do when they looked at the broken axle.

"It's just a matter of time. The axle is broken and it's not easy to repair." As he said, Yunyao glanced at the goods contained in the roadside box and found that it was full of stones: "It must be that the stones are too heavy, why transport stones?"

"Du Niang, these are jades." Seeing that Yunyao was so inexperienced, Shuzai spoke out to remind him.

"Jade?" Yun Yaoxin said no wonder she brought so many stones. It turned out that she was not idle, but useful.

The strong man in the lead nodded and said, "We are jade men. We were ordered to transport a batch of jade from Zhou to Lu. The car was rotated six times along the way, and the axle was broken twice. Unexpectedly, we were about to reach the destination, but the axle was broken again." His face was full of helplessness.

"What are you going to do?"

"The prepared axles have been used up, and we are going to send someone to the Guodu to call a taxi." The man said.

Yunyao nodded, then there was nothing he had to do: "This is a solution. Since you already have a solution, I won't bother you, and we have to hurry up."

"Thank you again for your help," the man said gratefully.

The carriage continued to set off.

I soon arrived at my destination. The eastern suburbs were covered with dusty flat ground. At this time, the flags were waving and colorful flags were floating, representing the nobles of various fiefs of Lu. Doctors gathered together, with the carriages and horses and the sound of people.

The stage is ready. The sacrifice stands on the right with a high mound of earth, and the wood-built viewing platform stands on the left, and a spacious competition venue is surrounded by a fence in the middle. Tomorrow, those participating in the archery ceremony can compete in archery and carriages on the field to show the spirit of Lu.

Nobles of different classes were treated differently. The Baron was given to the Baron, and soon some Chinese people took Yunyao to the Baron's parking lot, recorded their gifts, transported the things away, and arranged their residence.

The whole process was orderly, and every Chinese was experienced and would not lead the wrong ones or do it. Yunyao was brought to a tent full of barons, with twelve barons present, plus Yunyao only had thirteen, so she should be the latest one to come.

Even if he is just a baron, he is also a nobleman, and is also a certified identity by Zhou Li. He is also a title that can be passed down from generation to generation and possessed from generation to generation.

The barons are all the best and polite when they are together.

So although Yunyao is young and a girl, since she is here, no one will neglect her.

"You must be Zhu He's Zhu, I've heard your story. You defeated the Count in the war." A young baron came over to greet Zhu. This man was not tall and not big. He seemed to be a little malnourished, with a concave cheeks, and was a little sick: "My name is Fang Gu, and his name is Jixiang. His fief is in the east, close to Qi."

"I've seen Fang Jun." Yunyao greeted politely: "I heard that Qi's salt is produced. You should trade and circulate next to Qi's country, and your fief must be very lively."

After hearing what Yunyao said, Fang Gu's face was not very good. Judging from his unfilled appearance, he knew that his life was not very good.

Yun Yao also found that the other party looked wrong and immediately changed the topic: "Tomorrow's Shooting Ceremony, I wonder if you will attend? I'm late, I wonder if you have any decisions?" Not only was he asking Fang Gu, but also asking other barons.

The barons in the room looked at Yunyao. Some of them were older and young, some were tall and some were short, but they all had pale faces and thin skin, which was not much different from ordinary Chinese people, and they were not even as good as some Chinese people who served as doctors.
