Bracelet space through the past and present? Take it

"Is this Shangjing?"

The little maid Hongyu left the Northern Frontier for the first time and traveled eastward. The towns she saw became increasingly prosperous, but none of them were as prosperous as the present-day Shangjing City.

Perhaps because the succession ceremony was approaching, the entire Shangjing was bustling with people coming and going.

The older Hong Fei gently patted her hand that was lifting the curtain, as if she was afraid of disturbing someone, and whispered:

"Didn't you hear what Madam said? Anyone who falls from the capital city is a high-ranking official. Stop messing around!"

Hongyu touched her paws and pouted: "What kind of high-ranking official can be seen so cheaply..."

Their master is the recognized eldest daughter of the general's mansion!

But she only dared to mutter quietly and didn't dare to say it out loud.

The carriage was extremely spacious. In addition to the two maids, Hongfei and Hongyu, there was also a person half-lying in the carriage and taking a nap.

The journey took more than a month, without much rest along the way.

The young people were fine, but it was hard for Chen's grandparents.

He is old and frail, and not only was the journey bumpy, but he also had some stomach problems.

Zhou Lingling added spiritual spring water to everyone's daily water bucket, but the old couple still looked a little listless.

The night before yesterday, Chen's grandmother even had a fever, so Zhou Lingling stayed with her for the past two days.

It was not until this morning when my grandmother felt a little better that she came back to rest.

No matter how quietly the two maids moved, the noisy crowd outside made it impossible to sleep peacefully.

Zhou Lingling sat up, and her almond-shaped eyes, which always smiled, showed a rare hint of annoyance.

Hongyu immediately became quiet and said timidly, "Miss, I woke you up..."

Zhou Lingling shook her head: "It has nothing to do with you."

She glanced at the bustling crowd outside the carriage, and what her grandmother said yesterday came to her mind.

This is Shangjing.

It is no longer the far-flung Yunshui County, nor is it the remote northern frontier.

She should know what can be done and what cannot be done.

In short, it means that she should behave herself and not act like before.

Thinking of the thick stack of plans in her hands, Zhou Lingling couldn't help but sigh.

Zhouji Grain Store is very popular in the northern border and will soon open branches in Wushuang City and several surrounding towns.

She also planned to start selling high-yield grain seeds to the entire Yuan Dynasty from Shangjing.

But if you think about it carefully, this business can no longer be done.

A tall tree attracts the wind...

Zhou Lingling made up her mind and her mind calmed down. She also had the mind to look around the Yuan Dynasty capital where her family would live in the future.

The Zhou family set out from the northern border together with the people who came to pray.

Apart from their own family and their maternal grandparents' family, there were only Tie Yuan and others.

The Tang family still chose to stay in the northern border with the Sun family, but Tang Biao and Tang Bin chose to follow them to Shangjing.

Moreover, the Tang brothers did not terminate the contract with Zhou Lingling, but instead signed another 20-year contract.

Zhou Lingling plans to set up a merchant caravan led by Tang Biao.

The shop in the northern border is still managed by my second cousin. He only needs to inspect it once a year, and the person who actually manages the business there is Tang Bin.

The remaining two brothers of the Tang family also had other arrangements.

It can be said that Zhou Lingling has entrusted all of her business in the northern border to the Tang family.

As for whether the Tang family would seize her property, Zhou Lingling said she was not very worried.

If the Tang family were smart enough, they would naturally know the difference between having one meal full and having every meal full.

Whatever she can give them, she can naturally take back!

Compared to the fact that they had been walking for a full month and a half, and the succession ceremony was in five days, Qizhu hurried to the capital and arrived in Shangjing half a month ago.

The Tang brothers also brought a few people with them and went ahead, intending to buy a new house in the outer city to live in temporarily.

Zhou Lingling said: The thing I have the most right now is money...

However, Tang Bin, who had come to pick them up earlier, said that although the house was bought, their family now had Zhou Yun, the deputy commander of the third-rank imperial guards, who had made outstanding contributions and had made great contributions to protecting the emperor.

So the new emperor granted him a mansion outside the imperial city, called the General of Cavalry's Mansion.

And the house is tidied up.

Qi Zhu asked Tang Bin to convey the message that their family might be summoned by His Majesty in the near future, so the whole family went into the inner city.

The carriage turned a few streets and drove into the inner city gate.

Here you can no longer see the bustling crowds of people like in the outer city, only high walls and vermilion gates everywhere.

Looking at the simple map of the road to Shangjing in his hand, Zhou Lingling quickly determined that this was Jianning Street next to the central axis of the imperial city.

Jianning Street is located at the boundary between the inner and outer cities. Those who can live here are high-ranking officials of the fourth rank or above in the court.

The layout of Shangjing City is very similar to the market town of her Tang Dynasty.

The middle "回" character is the inner imperial city, and the rest of the inner and outer cities are distributed according to a grid.

Some officials of the fifth or sixth rank, or even lower positions, still lived in the outer city.

The carriage continued to move forward. It was obvious that the General of Cavalry Mansion bestowed upon Zhou Yun by the new emperor was closer to the imperial city than Jianning Street.

There was a burst of hurried horse hooves outside, and Uncle Lin and others who were driving the carriage moved aside.

I never thought that the sound of horse hooves would stop next to the carriage.

The group stopped.

Zhou Lingling frowned for a moment, then instantly relaxed.

Soon, Chen's somewhat excited voice was heard from the front.

She had an idea and lifted the curtain to look over.

Several majestic soldiers were leading tall horses, wearing military uniforms that were familiar to her.

They are from the Northern Army.

Several of them were Zhou Yun's subordinates, and they knew in their hearts that they were members of the Zhou family. General Biaoqi deliberately came to see them under the pretext of inspecting the inner city gate, and then dismounted and waited by the side.

When they saw Zhou Lingling show up, their eyes lit up.

"Miss Zhou!"

"Meet Miss Zhou!"

Zhou Lingling often went in and out of several military camps in Anbei City, and was very friendly when she saw them.

"Thank you all, brothers."

Several people waved their hands and said "We dare not".

Not to mention that they are now General Zhou's subordinates, even Miss Zhou herself is not someone they can afford to offend.

Besides, they don't want to offend.

To everyone in Northern Xinjiang, the Zhou family is different...

Zhou Lingling asked Hongyu to take the remaining dried meat from the carriage and share it with them, saying with a smile:

"There aren't many left. They were all brought from Northern Xinjiang. It's been half a year since you left Northern Xinjiang. Come and have a taste of home."

Several people looked at the cloth bag as big as their heads, feeling hesitant but also excited.

In the end, I couldn't help but miss the "taste of home", so I accepted it with some embarrassment.

"Thank you girl!"

Zhou Lingling smiled and did not go to the front to disturb the deep love between her parents and second brother. After delivering the dried meat, she sat back.

"dong dong dong"

The car windows were banged.

Then, the small curtain was lifted from the outside.

"Stinky girl, aren't you surprised at all to see your second brother?"

Zhou Lingling looked at the enlarged black face outside the car window and smiled, revealing her eight big white teeth.

"Second brother~"

"Eh!"

Zhou Yun was delighted by the sweet call of "Second Brother". His sister, whom he had not seen for half a year, had become even cuter and more beautiful.

"Wait for my second brother to come back and buy you something delicious!"

Zhou Lingling smiled and said, "Thank you, second brother~"

Zhou Yun felt relieved, but he didn't dare to miss the task.

"Go home with Mom and Dad first. We have everything at home. Wait for my second brother to get off duty tonight!"

Zhou Lingling: Nod obediently.

Zhou Yun stretched out his big hand, touched his sister's little head, and then left with satisfaction.

Zhou Lingling: How presumptuous of you...
