The next day, before dawn, four carriages quietly drove out of the city gate under the protection of fifty guards.
Although the real owner is only Liu She "father and son", but in the end they prepared four carriages.
One for Liu She, one for Jiang Pengji, one for servants with face, and the last one for all kinds of sundries, such as clothes, food, water, money, and other items to keep out the cold. on the carriage.
This is still the scale after repeated reductions. If it was prepared by Madam Ji and Madam Die at the beginning, it would require at least six carriages.
To put it simply, in the ancient times when all aspects of conditions were extremely backward, it was not easy to travel far.
The friends in the live broadcast room said that they were all stunned and gained insight.
[Jun Muyi]: I used to watch TV dramas, and I felt that all the actors went out lightly and lightly, basically with a maid and a horseman. It turns out... I used to watch all fake TV dramas, and the extravagant posture of the anchor was the way to travel in ancient times. correct scene
[Jinghong Youlong]: Tsk, it's really arrogant and coaxing, I feel that the anchor will not lose money for a trip.
Many friends expressed their envy and wished to replace the anchor to experience such a luxurious treatment.
Of course, there is no shortage of sensible ones here.
[Old Driver Lianmeng]: It's so sour! Can you believe it on TV? Do you know how underdeveloped transportation was in ancient times? Not just the means of transportation, but even the roads. Things like post stations can’t be everywhere. When you go far away, you often don’t see a living person for three or five days. You can’t go to the village or the store. Don’t prepare food and water. Are you ready to starve to death
When people who have the conditions go away, they will naturally take into account all aspects and take all emergencies into consideration.
If you don't have the conditions, you can only carry a package, bring some well-balanced dry food, and keep everything light and simple.
Not to mention the slow speed, there will be various dangers on the road.
The ancient times are not like the modern times where the audience lives. There are many high-rise buildings in modern times, which greatly compresses the living space of wild animals. Many people eat pork but have never seen pigs run. However, it was different in ancient times. There are often snakes in the home.
[Furry Rooster]: No, I ate dynamite upstairs today, isn't it just envy, as for jumping like this
The barrage in the live broadcast room was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and Jiang Pengji didn't pay attention to it at all, leaning on Pingji for a rest.
He hadn't left the Hejian County area, and the vibration of the carriage was still within the acceptable range, but as it approached noon, the carriage jolted violently.
The audience in the live broadcast room wondered if the carriage would be bumped and bumped like this, and it would just disperse.
[Jinghong Youlong]: Suddenly... I don't envy anymore, I can endure it for a while, but after a long time, the bones will be shaken away.
Some viewers even said that the camera vibrated so much that their eyes hurt and they felt a little nauseous.
"Already out of officialdom?"
Jiang Pengji raised her hand and lifted the curtain of the car, and the scenery outside had turned into a serene autumn scene.
Ta Xue did not sit in the third carriage, but followed Jiang Pengji.
"It's time to leave the official road. The slave has prepared a cushion, so you won't feel uncomfortable when you sit on the cushion."
Why was traffic in ancient times so congested
The backwardness of transportation is one reason, and another important reason is that the roads in this era are not good.
Except for the official road, which is smoother and more spacious, there is not even a "road" in other places.
The carriage in Liufu has a relatively advanced shock absorption system, and it is so bumpy now, let alone an ordinary carriage.
"No, I'll go out and ride a horse for a while."
Jiang Pengji's physique is very good, but such a bumpy carriage is also unbearable, let alone those frail ancients.
Liu She was dumbfounded when she saw Jiang Pengji riding a tall horse.
"Naughty, ride carefully."
He warned that riding a carriage was actually more uncomfortable than riding a horse. He thought that his daughter could not stand the bumps before getting off the carriage.
"Um."
Jiang Pengji rode a horse and followed the convoy leisurely. The sun gradually hung high in the sky, and it was very warm on her body.
In ancient times, it was inconvenient to travel, but fortunately, Liu She had a lot of experience and had prepared everything that could be prepared.
Liu She lifted the curtain of the car and said to Jiang Pengji, "Stop and rest for a while, and have something to eat."
"it is good."
Jiang Pengji responded and told the team to rest in place, and everyone would eat some before heading out on the road.
"Xiaoyu looks like this, but is ill?"
When Xu Ke helped the carriage down, her pale face caught her attention.
Look at his lips, they are almost pale.
At this moment, Xu Ke felt that his whole body was about to fall apart, his feet were on the ground, his legs were weak and he almost fell to his knees, but when he was so embarrassed, there was still a slightly teasing teasing from the family Langjun in his ears, and it became more and more Feeling unlovable.
After spending most of the day straightening his back, Xu Ke barely kept his demeanor and gave Jiang Pengji a smile.
Just this smile... very reluctant.
"There is a bonfire over there to boil hot water and boil the jerky. You can drink some later. If the carriage is too bumpy, you can ride a horse."
Jiang Pengji was not worried that Xu Ke would not be able to ride a horse. It must be known that the six arts of a gentleman are skills that students must master in this era.
Xu Ke bowed his hands and thanked him, "Thank you sir."
"Thank you, you didn't find it yourself?" Jiang Pengji looked him up and down with teasing eyes, and said in a low voice, "Yesterday, Xunmei went to find you? Well, if you're wooden, you don't understand your daughter. Mind, I can still have beautiful companions on the road at this time..."
Xu Ke's face turned pale, then turned blue again, and quickly said, "Langjun, don't misunderstand, Mrs. Xunmei is not..."
In a big family, most of the maids around Lang Jun are reserve concubines, how could Xu Ke dare to think about it
"So what are you in such a hurry to do?" Jiang Pengji leaned closer and sneered, "Xunmei came back with red eyes..."
Xu Ke kept his mouth shut.
"I treat her like my own sister, and have no other ideas. In addition, Xunmei has her own thoughts, so she may not be willing to be the concubine of a noble family... She likes you very much." Jiang Pengji let go of her words and heard Xu Ke's head drooped more and more, "What do you mean?"
"Ke... rejected Miss Xunmei."
Xu Ke's voice was like a mosquito, and his cheeks flushed a little.
"Actually, I'm not optimistic about Xunmei's choice. You are not a good match."
Xu Ke is not very good now, but the future is promising. Jiang Pengji has confidence in Xu Ke and more confidence in herself.
Today's men in this era still have too little, too little.
After development, there are still few people who abandon their original spouses, and take concubines to raise their outer chambers under the pretext of inheriting the lineage
