After leaving Mianzhou City, they had to go all the way to Liangzhou. Manbao and the others walked this road once last year, but it was summer and it was very hot.
But it was still the first month of the month, the weather was warm and cold, and they themselves couldn't tell which time was the hardest time to travel.
Occasionally, Man Bao would pick up some medicinal materials and make a pot of medicinal soup for everyone to drink. For epidemic prevention, everyone drank it obediently, even she drank it bitterly.
This is to prevent seasonal epidemics, otherwise it will be so hot and cold, and it will be easy to get sick.
But the further we went to the capital, the more stable the weather became, and it remained windy and cold for several days. Man Bao and the others only jog the horse every day when they set off after noon, and they also sit in the carriage at other times.
The passion of Santo Sanya and Sitou's first long trip has also gradually cooled down. Along the way, they will also stop to rest and stay at night in inns in small towns and county towns, or in post stations outside the city. .
Only when they traveled from Liangzhou to the capital, one night, they slowed down a bit, couldn't reach the post station in front, and missed the village behind, so they had to sleep in the wild.
But the three of them have a lot of servants, sitting together, they are not afraid of having several big fires. Mrs. Liu, Mr. Zhuang and Mrs. Zheng sleep in the carriage, while Bai Shan and the others are young and excited around the fire. After playing with barbecues for most of the night, everyone was lying in the carriage the next day and couldn't get up.
But the carriage was bumpy, and they didn't sleep well.
Bai Shan and the others already had experience, and if they couldn't sleep well, they got out of the car and rode a horse to get rid of the drowsiness, and decided to have a good night's sleep when they arrived in the capital.
But Santou and the others didn't, and couldn't help falling asleep when they were sleepy, even if my sister-in-law and the others asked them to sit on the shaft of the car to refresh their minds, saying that it would make them feel better, they were not happy.
Rather than blowing the cold wind, they prefer to hide in the car and sleep.
Then they have back pain and neck pain, and they don't feel comfortable anywhere anyway.
The three came to see Man Bao crying, but Man Bao could only look at them regretfully and said, "It's useless to take medicine, you twist it slowly, I'll teach you?"
Bai Erlang gloated at the side, "I told you not to sleep in the car, but you still don't believe me, are you suffering?"
Three heads said: "Didn't you also sleep in the car?"
"That's different," Bai Erlang said: "That's called napping, you know? It's the same as sleeping in a cage, it's not called sleeping at all."
The three were stunned, even Bai Shan and Man Bao were shocked by these remarks, and after thinking about it carefully, it was true, so they nodded in agreement.
The three heads have no choice but to gently turn their necks and rub their backs from time to time, and occasionally Man Bao will help them press.
For this reason, she went into the teaching room to ask Teacher Mo for massage methods while she was resting in the car with her eyes closed, and then tried it on the three of them, but the effect seemed to be mediocre. Pressed harder.
The four heads were about to cry out, Man Bao had no choice but to use acupuncture to relieve him.
The three of them arrived in the capital in such a painful state. At first they complained a lot, but when they saw the tall city wall of the capital from a distance, the three of them were speechless and felt their necks not sore for a moment. My lower back doesn't hurt anymore.
The three of them lay at the window and looked forward, staring intently, "It's so big!"
"It's so high!"
Even Bai Shan and Man Bao have seen it several times, and they still feel that the city wall is very majestic.
It was almost noon at this time, and there were many people queuing up to enter and leave the city. Their convoy looked quite large from other places, but it was not obvious when compared with the convoys gathered from various avenues.
They slowly merged into the traffic flow and entered the convoy.
Bai Shan sat in the car and waited for a while, feeling that the speed was extremely slow, so he jumped out of the car and went to find his grandmother, "Grandma, Man Bao and I will ride back first, and pack up the house and wait for you?"
Mrs. Liu also knew that they couldn't sit still. It was already at the gate of the city, and she didn't want to restrict them too much, so she waved her hand and said, "Go."
Bai Shan became happy, and immediately ran back to find Man Bao and Bai Erlang, "Let's go, let's ride into the city."
When the three heads in the next carriage heard it, they immediately leaned on the window and said, "Sister, are you going to abandon us?"
Man Bao: "Fifth brother is right behind."
The four squeezed out the third brother, leaned over and said pitifully: "But sister, we want to be with you."
Bai Shan pointed to the guards who had brought the horses over, "It's simple, you ride with them."
When the guards who only came with two guards saw it, they immediately sent another guard over.
The nine people and six horses left the convoy and ran to line up at another small gate in front, and soon it was their turn to go in.
The three heads and three sat behind the guards, with faces that had never seen the world. After entering the city gate, they looked around. They saw the old and wide streets in the city, and then looked at the pedestrians on the road. The three of them were amazed. endlessly.
When they saw a few barbarians who were obviously different from them, the three opened their mouths even more. Although they restrained themselves, they couldn't help but stare at them again and again.
The barbarian walking on the road noticed their gaze, turned his head to look over, and saw that they looked like they had never seen the world, so they muttered in a low voice, "Hillbilly."
Then he walked away with his head held high and his hands held high.
Sanya swallowed her saliva and asked, "Sister-in-law, is that a barbarian?"
Man Bao glanced at it and said, "That's a businessman from the Western Regions, and also a barbarian."
She said: "Don't stare at them all the time, they will be embarrassed. You take a look first, move your eyes away, and then turn your head back to take a look, so that they won't notice."
The three felt that what she said made sense, so they did so when they saw rare people and things on the next journey.
Eunuch Wu, who was waiting for them in the city gate building, had a panoramic view of all this by chance, and was quite speechless.
The soldier behind him bowed and said, "My lord, they have gone far."
Only then did Eunuch Wu come to his senses, and immediately went downstairs, got into the carriage and chased them.
There were many pedestrians on the road, so they didn't dare to ride their horses. They just let the horses trot forward. If they encountered a congested road, they had to rein in the horses and move forward slowly.
But the way people walk and the driveway are separated, so it's okay.
A carriage was chasing up from behind, Man Bao didn't look back, he just steered the horse to the side and walked slowly, avoiding it.
But the carriage drove with her, the window opened, and Eunuch Wu's smiling face poked out from inside, "Little Doctor Zhou, don't come here without any problems."
Man Bao looked down and was surprised, "Eunuch Wu, what a coincidence, are you going out of the palace to play today?"
Eunuch Wu laughed and said: "Young doctor Zhou is joking, how can our family go out of the palace to play casually? Our family is waiting for you at the city gate by His Highness's order."
