The flag of the Nine-tailed Fox Tribe fluttered in the wind, heading northeast.
Hua followed the driver with his hands tied behind his back.
The team crossed two rivers one after another.
The first river is relatively narrow and shallow.
In this dry season, some sections of the river are no more than knee-deep.
The team directly found a shallow and gentle place to swim across.
When crossing the second big river, you need to take a boat through a simple ferry.
The ferry was obviously controlled by the Su clan.
There was a simple wall made of logs at the ferry, and there were twenty soldiers guarding the ferry on both sides.
Hua knew from the conversations among the team that the one in front of the two rivers was called Luoshui and the other was called Heshui.
Hua combined the knowledge of the two generations and knew that the area between the two rivers and to the south was the Luoyang Basin in later generations, also known as the Yiluo Basin, and the river water was what later generations called the Yellow River.
There are more and more fields on the roadside.
In many fields, there are a large number of slaves covered in linen or raincoats, bending over and waving bronze sickles to harvest the crops.
From time to time, there are loud scoldings and whipping sounds from supervisors.
When the fields are connected, the ditches are crisscrossed, and the streets are crisscrossed, the settlements composed of Maoci earth-stepped buildings are lined up one after another.
Natural streets are formed between buildings, and the main streets are paved with bluestones.
In the eyes of Hua, who has experienced two lifetimes, these are actually large villages.
The "village" is divided into two parts, the inner and outer parts, by a trench about nine meters wide and a small river flowing through it.
There is a suspension bridge on the small river connecting the two parts.
The car came to a stop in front of the most magnificent building in the center of the "village".
It's not quite appropriate to call it a building.
It should be a "city", with a length and width of about 300 meters each.
It is surrounded by a wooden courtyard wall about two feet high.
There are wooden watchtowers at the four corners of the courtyard and on both sides of the gate.
This is the palace of the Su Kingdom.
Hua followed the carriage into the palace courtyard and found that the palaces of the Su Kingdom and the Yi Kingdom had the same style.
There was a corridor along the inside of the palace courtyard.
There were many doors on the corridor leading to the palace.
A circle of houses and palaces distributed along the palace walls.
The front hall and the harem are distributed front and back on the central axis of the courtyard.
Hua was untied in front of an old man.
"This is the palace of Uncle Sub of the Su Kingdom.
I am Su Dao, the manager here.
You will be Sub's servant from now on."
The old man introduced himself.
"I heard that you can read.
Read what is written here."
The old man said as he handed over a bamboo stick.
Hua Muran read out the words above one by one.
The old man nodded with satisfaction, and then whispered a few words to a slave beside him.
After a while, a girl of twelve or thirteen years old with a delicate appearance appeared in front of Hua.
Su Dao bowed and whispered a few words in the girl's ear.
The girl's big black eyes looked over Hua's body several times.
She looked at Huamuna, pursed her lips and smiled, two shallow dimples appeared on her face, turned her head and nodded to Su Dao.
At this time, Su Dao cleared his throat and said seriously to Hua: "This is our lord's daughter Daji.

From now on, you will obey her orders.
If anyone commits adultery, he will be beheaded at least, and you will be used at worst.
You will sacrifice your ancestors to the ghosts and gods.
On the contrary, if the master is satisfied, he will promote you to the public in the future and even give you a surname."
When Hua heard the word "Mao Festival", her chrysanthemums tightened.
The picture of a half-drawn pig hanging on an iron hook was vividly depicted by the hieroglyph "Mao".
He quickly nodded and said hello to the old man.
Hua followed Daji, accompanied by a maid and two guards with bronze swords.
"I'm Daji, what's your name?"
the girl said.
"Back to the mistress, the servant's name is Hua, but now he has no name."
"You don't have a surname now.
Does that mean you had a surname before?"
Su Daji stopped and asked Hua doubtfully.
Hua told Su Daji about his experiences in Iraq.
Su Daji sighed, looked at Hua with sympathetic eyes, and said, "You are also a miserable child.
My mother left after giving birth to me."
Hua didn't notice what she said after that, because he could already hear the "ding" of the system sound in his head.
The familiar female voice sounded in Hua's ears again.
The mission of getting to know Su Daji is completed.
Congratulations to the lord for getting fifty points and ten bronze shield guards.
The Bronze Shield Guards will arrive at the exit of Suyi in one hour.
Lord, please meet them in time.
If you cannot meet them within three hours, they will disappear.
Ding, main mission 2: Build your own city south of the Luo River.
The reward for completing the mission is 100 points and 50 farmers.
Hua wondered in his heart: How should I get out of here, and glanced at the two 1.8-meter-tall sword-wielding guards beside him.
It is obviously impossible to forcefully break into and escape from the town where the Su family is.
"Are you still thinking about going to Chaoge?
Chaoge has a nice name, but this place is not beautiful.
If you stay here, I can protect you.
When you grow up, I will let my father give you freedom."
Daji looked at it.
Hua said after there was still a look of depression on his face.
Just as Hua wriggled his lips and was about to say something, Su Daji's cold little hand had already held his hand, and her delicate and crisp voice reached Hua's ears.
"Let's go, I will take you to see the wild geese I have tamed.
In the future, when I forget to take care of them, you must remember to take care of them."
Daji said as she led Hua towards the bank of the river.
Hua Xin lamented that the moral ethics, customs and culture of the Shang Dynasty were still very different from those of the nearly three thousand years after the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty.
At such an age, holding hands with the lady of the house like this, I am afraid that I will be killed with a stick in the future.
Of course, no matter how old you are, it is impossible for a male servant to work as a companion to the host's lady in future generations.
In a goose shed built by the river, Hua followed Daji and watched several big geese.
"Hey, where has Fei gone?"
Daji said to herself in confusion.
"Little mistress, who is A Fei?"

"A big goose with black feathers, I have raised it since childhood."
Daji was close to the water bank at this time, raising her head and looking at the river in the distance.
At this time, a big goose paced, swaying its fat body, and swaggered between Hua and Daji, raising its head and scorning Hua.
Hua looked at Daji's back and suddenly had a bold plan in his mind.
Hua took advantage of the fact that several others were helping Daji look for Ah Fei, and without paying attention to the seconds beside him, he flew towards the big goose with a fierce kick.
The proud goose was frightened by the sudden flying kick.
It quacked several times, flapped its wings, and flew into the air.
Its huge body hit Su Daji's back.
With a "pop" sound, Su Daji threw herself into the water.
Then he struggled desperately in the water.
Apparently the river was deeper than she was tall and she couldn't swim.
The maid was so frightened that she shouted for help and ran towards the city.
The two guards were shocked.
If anything happened to Daji, they would not survive.
One person hurriedly searched the riverside, hoping to find something with a long pole to rescue him.
After hesitating for a few seconds, the other man took off his coat and jumped into the river with a splash.
However, the person who jumped into the water was not very good at water and could only be paddled a few times.
Su Daji, who was panicked and confused, grabbed him and the two of them struggled together to drift towards the middle and downstream of the river.
The guard finally broke free from Daji's entanglement.
He no longer cared about Daji and used all his strength to paddle all the way to the shore.
At this time, Hua had already sprinted to the suspension bridge at a speed of 100 meters.
After another three or four hundred meters, he would be able to get out of this city, where he should be able to meet the bronze shield guards sent by the system.
But at this time, he saw Su Daji floating down the river, sinking and floating in the water, and her struggling movements became smaller and smaller.
After a second of hesitation, he jumped from the bridge into the river with a pop:
