On the tenth day of August, Lee suddenly announced that he would go to Los Angeles tomorrow.
Ye Xueying had risen to the thirteenth level at this time, and she was very interested in the legendary Los Angeles and the legendary Hou Mansion.
She agreed to go with her without objection.
Li breathed a sigh of relief, her daughter had always disliked the Hou Mansion, and she had to coax her for a long time before she agreed to go back.
Before leaving, Ye Xueying lied to her father, and insisted on taking away his treasured bow and sword from the arsenal collected by his father.
General Ye is a typical military general, who does not love jewelry, only weapons.
He has a collection of more than a dozen divine weapons.
Ye Xueying picked the strongest bronze tire magpie painting bow and a Qingfeng sword that cut gold and jade.
As early as half a month ago, Li began to prepare various gifts.
On August 11, the Ye family set off, leaving a housekeeper with a team of guards and more than 20 people at home to watch the house.
Thirty carts flocked to the state city of Los Angeles.
Li sat in the first carriage, Ye Xueying sat in the second carriage, and the grandmothers and maids were crowded into four carriages.
There are also three cars for the three Ye family sons to rest.
The rest of the cars were loaded with gifts and luggage.
Commander Ye took his sons and escorted them on horseback with hundreds of personal soldiers.
Ye Mansion almost went out, and this team of nearly two hundred people.
Out of the county, Ye Xueying was very excited, this was the first time she had gone far in this world.
She looked curiously at the ancient wilderness.
After watching it for less than three minutes, she retracted her head, the dead and silent mountains, the unchanged scenery, the broken roads, and the dust in the sky were really unbearable.
She would have liked to ride a horse, but she now has three horses.
The red horse given by his father was named Red Shadow.
It means a red shadow, and praises the horse for running as fast as a shadow.
The blue and white BMW sent by the eldest brother is directly called blue and white.
Later, the third brother asked someone to buy her a white horse from Los Angeles, called Yinzi.
But more than 200 horses ran on the road, and the dust was too great for her to bear.
Ye Xueying had no choice but to crook in the carriage and take out the latest book to read.
This was picked up by her third brother from Los Angeles.
All the way to noon, the Ye family had a picnic in the woods on the side of the road.
In the evening, I finally arrived at the small county seat of the neighboring county.
The Ye family stayed at the post station, because there was no big inn in the city, and a large team of hundreds of people couldn't live at all in a small county inn.
Ye Xueying got out of the car and observed this legendary ancient post station.
The yard is big, three into the house.
The mottled wall, apparently in disrepair, contained only one steward and three men.
The crude tables, chairs, and furniture, the cobweb-covered eaves roof, and the moldy quilt emit an unpleasant smell.
This kind of post station is nominally free for officials passing by, but in fact, officials of real rank generally do not come to stay.
When officials travel, they either live in a large inn, or have a local government to receive them, or spend the night in a luxury business.
The people who come to stay are often messengers, heralds, catchers, small officials, Jinyi guard spies and others.
They came here for free accommodation and food and drink.
Commander Ye chose to live here, but in fact, it was out of safety considerations.
He couldn't trust the crowded inns, nor the local government and merchants.
Living here, he can use his hundreds of personal soldiers and dozens of guards at home to decorate this place like a small castle.
This is also the place of the imperial court, and even if the second uncle sends someone to assassinate, he has great scruples.
The dirtiness and ugliness of the post station made Ye Xueying suddenly lose interest.
After more than half a year of luxurious life, her taste for life quickly deteriorated.
She quickly ran to the courtyard and refused to go in.

Li was not surprised, his daughter has always been squeamish.
She touched her daughter's head and said, "That's how it is when you go out, if you don't want to, you can sleep in the car at night." ” The steward of the post station brought chickens, ducks, fish, and rice from neighboring villages.
The Ye family made their own fire and cooked a meal.
That night, Ye Xueying took the cuckoo and the two rings to sleep in the carriage.
When she woke up the next day, Ye Xueying found that she was on the road.
After three days of driving without saying a word, they finally arrived in Los Angeles.
Ye Xueying lifted the curtain of the car and looked over.
The 16-meter-high city wall is made of bluestone 1 meter long and 1 foot high.
As far as the eye can see, the city wall with a circumference of dozens of miles firmly protects Los Angeles.
Large patches of mottled and faded blood can still be seen on the city walls, and the remnants of arrows and axes are even more numerous.
Los Angeles was the first major town to face the invasion of the Northwest nomads, and tens of thousands of enemy troops attacked the city ten years ago.
Los Angeles is the most prosperous city in the northwest far frontier, it is the capital of Los Angeles, the largest commercial center, the power center of the whole state, and the most fortified military fortress in the northwest.
The high-ranking officials and magnates of Luozhou live here.
When they entered the city, the city was densely populated, with civilians and garrisons, totaling more than 300,000 people.
The streets are lined with shops, and the cries of selling come and go.
Ye Xueying nodded, this is what a big city should look like.
After traveling for nearly an hour, the convoy finally arrived in front of the Hou Mansion.
There were two large stone lions in front of the door, and a group of soldiers in bright armor stood on the side.
On the forehead of the door, there are gold characters on a black background, Wu'an Hou Mansion.
The vermilion gate of the Hou Mansion nailed with large copper nails was opened, and the guards took away the one-foot-high threshold.
The convoy went straight into the compound and exited Lixu and stopped in front of the second gate.
The convoy stopped, and everyone got out of the car.
The soldiers and guards left and went to settle in the outer courtyard.
Dozens of rough envoys came out of the second gate, and they sat in the driver's position and drove the car into the backyard.
After walking half a mile, in front of a large house, the convoy stopped again.
Ye Xueying got out of the car and looked around curiously.
She naturally has the impression of the Hou Mansion in her memory, but it is completely different from the feeling of seeing the real thing.
This is the Rong'an Hall where Lord Hou and Mrs.
Hou live, and it is splendid and magnificent everywhere.
With the eyesight that Ye Xueying cultivated in Ye Mansion, she slightly estimated the price of this Rong'an Hall, and the price of the material alone was worth hundreds of thousands of silver.
She secretly stuck out her tongue and gave thirty-two praises to the wealth of the Hou Mansion.
Thinking that she was the young lady of the family, she couldn't help but be secretly proud.
After thinking about it, it was not so easy for her to enjoy this glory and wealth, she first had to kill her second uncle and help her father sit firmly in the position of the prince of the Hou Mansion. followed her family into the lobby, Ye Xueying's eyes swept and she had a full view of the situation in the hall.
The old lord and Mrs.
Hou sat on the main seat.
The old marquis looks very similar to General Ye, he is well maintained, and he doesn't look like an old man in his fifties, but he looks like General Ye's brother.
With a slight smile on his face, he looked at the children and grandchildren below.
The old marquis's eyes are as fierce as a wolf, he looks like a high-ranking and powerful person, and he treats people as if they were nothing.
The nasolabial folds on both sides of the mouth are terrifying, and Ye Xueying remembers that in the novel, this kind of person is often ruthless.
Mrs.
Hou Yang is also very well maintained, the old lady in her fifties looks like a person in her thirties, her skin is fair and delicate, and only the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes can't hide her real age.
She was like a dried flower pressed in amber, still beautiful and charming, and it was evident that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.
But now it feels like it has withered for many years, without a trace of the freshness of flowers, as if it will fade and wither at any time.
Although she also had a smile on her face, Ye Xueying could see at a glance that the smile stopped on the surface.
A common saying flashed in Ye Xueying's mind: Skin smiles but doesn't smile.

The old lady's eyes flashed with an inscrutable look of disgust
