The Jingxi Jiazi 026 train that leads from the Western Regions to the capital of the Ming Dynasty emits bursts of whistle sound. The sound echoes in the open foothills of the mountains and continues to echo in the distant valleys. The sound is melodious and long, as if the mountain gods are here. The sound is average.
Li Nanyun was wearing a robe and holding a volume of Tang poetry anthology in his hand. He was immersed in the beautiful world of poetry and songs with relish. From time to time, he would shake his head and recite aloud, and even admire the exquisiteness when he read it.
"The White Emperor bids farewell to the colorful clouds. A thousand miles of rivers and mountains are returned in one day. The apes on both sides of the bank can't stop crying. The boat has already passed the Ten Thousand Mountains!"
¡°Back then, when Li Taibai took a boat to go south along the Yangtze River, he could travel a thousand miles in a day, which must be an exaggeration. Now I take a train, but I can really travel a thousand miles in a day.¡±
"It only takes a few days to travel thousands of miles from the Western Regions to the capital, and there is no travel and fatigue. If Li Taibai had been alive, he would have written another poem for the ages."
Li Nanyun gently put down the book in his hand and looked at the scenery outside the window.
The train from Daming to the Western Regions has just been completed and opened to traffic recently. At this moment, the train shuttles at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, looking at it from a distance.
The white-capped snow-capped mountains in the distance are extremely holy, as charming as a virgin; the mountainside is covered with lush grass, and you can see patches of cattle and sheep foraging freely, and the herdsmen are singing songs and enjoying the good time.
At the foot of the mountain is a town, vast farmland, dense forests in the distance, and a river winding down like a jade belt.
The scenery is so beautiful and picturesque that one cannot help but be intoxicated by it.
"This brother, Wang Qi, is in Xiahe. I wonder if I can sit with him?"
29306 While enjoying the beautiful scenery, someone came over, saluted and asked.
"Please sit down~please sit down~"
Li Nanyun came to his senses, quickly stood up and returned the greeting, signaling to the other party to please feel free to do so.
¡° Then he looked at Wang Qi carefully. He was also dressed like a scholar like himself, and there was a bookboy behind him. However, this bookboy was not Han, but blond and blue-eyed like himself.
Wang Qi was also looking carefully at Li Nanyun in front of him. Although he was dressed like a scholar, his hair was raised high, with a hairpin and a jade pendant.
It¡¯s just that the other person is tall, with a high nose and deep eyes, blond hair and blue eyes. There is no doubt that he is not Han.
¡°Brother Wang, I¡¯m Li Nanyun, from Nanyun Province!¡±
Li Nanyun introduced himself to Wang Qi with a smile, and the two exchanged polite greetings before sitting down opposite each other. The carriage they were traveling in was a first-class carriage, which was somewhat different from ordinary carriages. There were fewer people, more space, and a separate private bedroom outside. There are also places where you can sit and drink tea, chat, read books and newspapers together.
"Nanyun Province?"
¡°I see, Brother Li must have also gone to the capital to take the imperial examination, right?¡±
When Wang Qi heard this, he immediately understood it after a little thought.
"Ashamed~Ashamed~"
"Thanks to the emperor's grace, I have the honor to go to the capital to study. I don't dare to have any extravagant expectations, but I hope that I can learn a thing or two from my outstanding students of the Ming Dynasty, which will benefit me throughout my life."
Li Nanyun is very humble.
Last year, Nanyun Province held the triennial provincial examination. He is a native of Xiji Hong Kong and has studied in private schools and academies set up by the local government since he was a child.
Even though he is Caucasian and not from the Ming Dynasty, he is very talented in reading. He has almost a photographic memory of many things. In the private school, he learned better than many Han children and was deeply influenced by the teachers in the private school. like.
When he took part in the provincial examination last year, he won the title of Xie Yuan in one fell swoop, so much so that the chief envoy of Nanyun Province was full of praise for him and said that he had a bright future.
Because Li Nanyun himself is Caucasian and a native of Nanyun Province, he won the first place in the provincial examination and became Jieyuan. The news spread in Nanyun Province, and the local Caucasians and Georgians in Nanyun Province were greatly encouraged. Many celebrations were held happily, and a lot of money was raised for Li Nanyun to help him go to the capital to participate in the examination.
For these local people in Nanyun Province, they have always been weak and have been bullied and invaded by powerful foreign nations and countries. Only the Emperor of Heaven regards them as his subjects and treats them like Han people. There is no differenceFacing the Ottoman Empire, the Persian Empire and Europe, there are always large armies stationed and guarded, and there is also a powerful Black Sea Fleet on the Black Sea side.
Therefore, soldiers are very common here in Nanyun Province.
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty wore handsome clothes, rode tall horses, and had uniform steps and postures. They looked very handsome and heroic.
¡°In addition, the Ming army gave the Ottoman Empire a hard lesson, and the locals in Nanyun Province have always been humiliated by the Ottoman Empire. It can be said that it gave them a bad breath.
The income and treatment of soldiers are very high, so the locals in Nanyun Province admire Ming soldiers very much. Countless girls dream of marrying Ming soldiers, and countless teenagers dream of joining the army one day to be loyal to Ming Dynasty and tomorrow. son.
