Chapter 35: Post

Jin Shangyu's horse-drawn carriage drove slowly through the streets of the imperial capital when he returned to his hometown, and his horses stomped with a neigh from time to time, causing the crowd in the downtown area to look sideways. At this time, Jin Shangyu sat alone in the sedan, observing the characteristics of the ancient crowd from time to time.
However, just as they were chatting and laughing, the two cars had already arrived at the Gumen of Luoyang City.
"My lord, no, eldest brother! I have to go forward and clear the level!"
Just when Jin Shangyu nodded and said "Go", Ling Yun had already rode his horse to the valley gate of Luoyang City.
"Damn, this Luoyang city is big! Just a gate is so grand!" Just as Ling Yun was going to negotiate about going out of the city, Jin Shangyu also looked up from the sedan chair.
I saw a huge city gate organically connected with the walls on both sides, forming a fully enclosed defense system. According to a rough estimate, the wall is about 20 meters high, and the base width is nearly 20 meters wide. Looking at both sides of the city gate, there are horse races for climbing the city, and several battlements used to watch the enemy are also accompanied by sergeants from time to time.
"Damn, this ancient city wall is magnificent! It seems that in this cold weapon era, there is a strong city, which is necessary!" While watching the majesty of the city gate and the city wall, Jin Shangyu sighed in his heart. After all, this was Luoyang City in the Western Jin Dynasty.
However, just when Jin sighed with emotion, Ling Yun had already urged the horse to come and shouted: "Go!"
Following Ling Yun's short two words, the nine war horses also quickly passed the city gate around the two carriages.
"Well, it's okay!"
"Brother, don't worry, I have a manuscript from Long live master, they will not embarrass us!"
"That's good! Remember, although you are protecting me from returning to my hometown, you have to eat and drink along the way! Don't treat me badly! Brothers! As for what way to go! I think I'll take the official road!"
"Yes, it's all arranged by eldest brother!" Seeing Jin Shangyu chose to go on the official road, Ling Yun was obviously relaxed.
"Damn, what's the official road, the side road! Lao Tzu's life is the most important! Others don't know, but Lao Tzu knows that this great Jin Dynasty, which seems to be infinitely beautiful, has long been undercurrents and banditry!" After thinking about it, Jin Shangyu was also sitting in the sedan alone, thinking secretly.
Although Jin Shangyu is a science student, he has also studied history after all. Therefore, he still knows a little bit about Luoyang's geographic location and Weichang County.
"Damn, these days without high-speed rail are difficult! Isn't it just from Luoyang to a place in Hebei, it takes such a long time! Alas! It seems that the ancient transportation should also be reformed! Damn, what to say This shouldn't be something I should think about!" After taking a nap in the sedan, Jin Shangyu once again pondered the messy things in his mind.
However, at this moment, Ling Yun's horse was also close to the sedan, and slowly said: "Brother, we are already fifty miles out of Luoyang City! There is an inn in front, do you need to adjust it!"
"Oh, that's it! Brother, in the future like these things, you can do it yourself! Brother, I am not familiar with the road conditions here anyway!"
"Brothers! Work hard, there is a post two miles ahead! Let's fix it there at noon!"
Just as Ling Yun's voice fell, the whole team also accelerated their marching speed. After a while, a not too big post appeared in front of everyone.
As he got off the sedan, Jin Shangyu smiled and said, "I'm sorry, brothers! Go in and have a rest! Let's see what's delicious and bring them up!"
"Brother, don't worry, I will arrange it!" After saying this, Ling Yun was also the first to walk into the station.
Standing outside the station, Jin Shangyu looked up and saw that there were only a dozen houses in the whole station, but the stable next to the house was very spectacular. There should be thirty or fifty horses of all kinds of handsome horses at a glance.

At this moment, Ling Yun had already walked out of the inn, along with a middle-aged man. He said with a smile on his face: "I don't know that it is Mr. Jin who is here. I have missed a long way to welcome you. Please forgive me!
"Brother, he is the manager of this station! Let's go in!"
"Oh, it turned out to be the manager here! Disrespect, disrespect!"
"My lord please!"
Seeing the person in charge of the station raising his hand to ask Jin Shangyu to come in first, Jin said with a slight smile: "Okay! Well, brothers, let's go in together! I'm all tired!"
With Jin Shangyu's words, everyone, including the two coachmen, swarmed into the inn.
Not long afterwards, I saw three or four people without official uniforms bringing tea. In more than half an hour, the two tables of wine and food were quickly set up.
"Brother! Although this station is small, it is the closest to the imperial capital, so everything is treated well! It is estimated that we may not be able to eat such good food and wine in the future!"
"Oh, it's like this! It doesn't matter! As long as we meet some places where we can eat, we can live there and adjust, don't we have to live in this station!"
"Brother, you are such a generous person, you can still be called a brother like me!"
"What's wrong with you, no matter what, are you a deputy lieutenant? You can be considered a general by the way!"
"My eldest brother is joking. In fact, my official position is around the sixth rank, just a small official!"
"Oh, the sixth grade is not too small! There are still seventh, eighth, and ninth grades!" After listening to Jin Shangyu's words, Ling Yun wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
In fact, this is Jin Shangyu's too direct. Yes, the sixth rank is also a general, but at best he is a general in charge of miscellaneous tasks. Otherwise, he would not be sent to a palace guard.
Of course, Jin's guard may be a bit special.
In this way, everyone in this small inn, after eating and drinking, went on the road again.
This time, they waited until dark enough before they could barely find a small village.
"Brother, that, our marching speed is too slow, sometimes we can't keep up with the post! This may be the only place to rest!"
"It's okay, we are all big men, so I'm afraid of doing this! Just live here! Remember, take good care of our things! This is already far away from the capital!" Jin Shangyu said as he walked towards a small town. Remind Ling Yun.
And Ling Yun also conveyed to the sergeant behind him.
In this way, after a while, everyone was resting in a hotel called Yuelai Inn.
After eating and drinking, Jin Shangyu also smiled and said, "Brother! This evening is very fine, so it's better for our brothers to go to the small riverside over there!"
"Okay! Brother, let's go!" After a whole day of communication, Ling Yun also knew Jin Shangyu's style of dealing with things, so he just walked out of the inn without further ado.
