The Retirement of the Demon Lord: Chapter 42 The tenderness and delicacy hidden under the wretchedness

"The Western Regions refers to the area outside the Great Wall that our country connects to the west. To put it more precisely, it is the beginning of Yumenguan's westward journey, so it is considered the Western Regions."

"The Western Regions refers to a large area, not just one country. The large area of ​​land called the Western Regions to the west of our Yumen Pass is scattered with a total of 36 countries, which are collectively referred to by our dynasty as the 'Thirty-six Western Regions'. They are Wusun, Qiuci, Yanqi, Ruoqiang, Loulan, Qiemo, Xiaowan, Ronglu, Mi, Qule, Pishan, Xiye, Puli, Yinai, Shache, Shule, Wei Tou, Wensu, Yuli, Gumo, Beilu, Wuqizi, Beilu Houguo, Shan Huan, Pulei, Puleihouguo, Xiqiemi, Jieguo, Huhu, Shanguo, Cheshiqianguo, Cheshihouguo China, Cheshiweidu State, Cheshihoucheng State, Dawan, Dayuezhi. In fact, there are not only these thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, but some of the remaining countries are too small to even establish diplomatic relations, so they will look at the Western Regions. There are thirty-six countries in the main, and the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions are called.”

"In the past, in the time of the ancestor emperor, the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions were not peaceful, and they had frequent civil wars, and they often offended the territory of our country, which was very annoying. So when the ancestor emperor finally found the opportunity to take his own hands, the imperial expedition, He personally led the army to defeat the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, and all the kings of the thirty-six countries were captured. However, most of the land in the Western Regions is poor in land, like chicken ribs. The king of the Thirty-six Kingdoms said that he didn’t want their land, so they would go back to their own countries and take care of their own countries, and they could pay tribute to him with their local products every year. After I went back, I kept my promise and paid tribute to our royal family every year.”

"In this way, it is actually equivalent to the fact that the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions have become our vassal states, and I am too lazy to manage and let them be autonomous. Now that they have surrendered, the ancestors ordered people to build a road and opened up trade with the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions. Channel, the two sides can carry out commercial cooperation and transactions in the private sector, which has brought a lot of benefits to both parties. Since I became friendly and traded with the thirty-six countries, the regional economy in the West has gradually developed, so the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions have gradually developed. It is a very important diplomatic country in the DPRK, and even if the DPRK is more powerful, it is not easy to show a bullying attitude to arouse conflicts and destroy the current atmosphere of peaceful coexistence for everyone.”

"The Dunhuang we are going to now is the westernmost part of the area under our jurisdiction, and Yumen Pass is the westernmost part of Dunhuang. Whether we go to the Western Regions or Dunhuang, Yumen Pass is the most important attraction, so we must not miss it, we must Go there and take a look. There are many painters near Yumen Pass who can paint portraits for you. If you are interested, you can give them some money to help you paint a portrait of Yumen Pass as a background to take home as a souvenir. Of course, if you If you trust me, why don't you give me the money, and I can help you draw! Since I'm a colleague of a team, I'll be more generous and give you a 9.10% off!"

Jiang Hao calculated with her fingers: "9.10% off... I'll give it a go, what's the difference with no discount!"

"Oh, guest, small business with small profits but quick turnover, it will be impossible to do this business if the price is lowered!" Mei Qianxiao rubbed her hands and spoke to Jiang Hao in Mandarin with a Western accent. A nine-rate painter of tourist money.

"Don't digress, keep talking!"

Yixue was angry at first, and didn't intend to listen to Mei Qianxiao's information about the Western Regions, she always felt that the dog's mouth would definitely not be able to spit out ivory. Unexpectedly, after listening to a few words carefully, the guy introduced himself in a straightforward manner, and he understood the general situation of the Western Regions at once. As a result, I just listened to it, and this product really digressed again!

"Hey, don't you want to hear it?"

Mei Qianxiao felt extremely aggrieved when Yixue suddenly yelled again, this time he was very sure that he didn't provoke her! No, is the discount given too little? Why don't you give it 9.20% off, after all, everyone's face is burnt out, and they are wearing a mask, it's better to draw some...

"What I said is that I don't want to listen to nonsense! We all know what you said just now, let's talk about it, say something we don't know!" Yixue said with a smile, and she was immediately embarrassed!

She seemed like a arrogant child, she clearly said that she didn't want to listen, but she was so fascinated by it... He had said no seriously early on, and it was all his fault that he strayed to the nasty place before!

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you something you haven't heard of." Mei Qianxiao rubbed her belly angrily, "But wait a minute, I'm hungry and thirsty, can I eat something?"

Everyone was reminded by Mei Qianxiao to find out that they had unknowingly heard Mei Qianxiao say that the history of the Western Regions had been talked about for more than two hours, lunch time had already passed, and everyone was hungry.

The horses on the road are fine horses, and they don't need to rest yet. The coachman sitting on the horse outside the carriage is also a veteran of this route. He is very experienced. Dry food and water are prepared properly. While riding the horse, he should eat and drink by himself, and he does not need to be taken care of by others.

These Jin Yiwei just need to take care of themselves.

Jiang Hao hurriedly said that everyone should have something to eat first. Anyway, the road is long, and I still want to hear Mei Qianxiao talk about the customs of the Western Regions, and there is still a lot of time to listen to.

So everyone started to distribute the beef and meat buns that Mei Qianxiao brought back, but Mei Qianxiao gave her share to the driver.

For those who can only eat dry food on the road in the next few days, a few pieces of freshly boiled beef with gravy are a luxury. There are many, but Mei Qianxiao is a person who cares about status and feels that people are hard, so they should get a little more care.

Yixue originally took out her share of dry food with a cold face, and did not want to eat the food bought by Mei Qianxiao, but when she saw that Mei Qianxiao thought of giving her share of beef and meat buns to the driver, she was stunned. stunned. Like everyone else, she also felt that it was a matter of course for her to sit in the carriage. She had never thought that when they were sitting comfortably in the carriage, a coachman was holding the reins against the roaring wind. The pain in the hand, restlessly riding the horse for them...

But this stinky hooligan thought about it. He took out the driving position from the carriage, and chatted with the driver for a while. Yixue could hear him say, "Brother, I can't hold it anymore and ask my brother to help you drive, you can rest for a while." Don't say anything, Lord Jinyiwei, don't be embarrassed to bother you, it's even more dangerous for us to drive when you are tired, and you count your 6 fresh lives on the carriage! Don't make trouble, call me when you're sleepy, I'm afraid of death, remember...

When Mei Qianxiao came in from outside the carriage, Yixue hadn't reacted, and suddenly the dry food in her hand was taken away by the guy who hadn't been seated, and there was a lotus leaf that Yixue deliberately didn't touch. Wrapped beef and meat buns were stuffed into her hands.

"The dry food is just to hangover, so I will exchange it with you." Mei Qianxiao nibbled the dry food without giving Yixue a chance to speak, "Well, it's really fragrant!"

This bastard! Yixue's snow-white neck was covered with a layer of pink porcelain because of her anger, and she almost squeezed the beef in her hand into meat sauce. She ate two mouthfuls of the dry food just now. Does this guy understand that eating other girls' saliva without the consent of others is considered indecent! Shouldn't this guy deliberately take advantage of her?
