A newly established film and television base attracted a large number of people: tourists, extras, vendors, and film crews. Among them was Jun Qiulan, who came from ancient times.
Others migh...
Chapter 151 Arrival
Jun Qiulan had never done a live broadcast by herself before.
Before the show started, he went to Qu Feng to ask for some advice.
It’s not difficult. Just interact with the fans in the live broadcast room, talk about your recent life, and answer some simple questions.
If necessary, you can also show your talents.
After a brief study, Jun Qiulan started a live broadcast before setting off to continue his journey to ancient times, with Yan Jing also beside him.
He rarely uses his short video account and didn't release any trailers in advance. When the show first started, there were not many people.
In fact, his popularity among the public is not that high. Many passers-by who come in don’t know him yet. They just think that this young man with long hair and ancient costume is very handsome.
It wasn't until a fan recognized Jun Qiulan that he started telling others about her. Soon, the live broadcast room became very popular.
Jun Qiulan was a little surprised, "Why are there so many people?"
The comments in the live broadcast room were scrolling so fast that he could hardly see what everyone was saying.
Yan Jing reached out to help him adjust it so that only fans who followed him could speak.
The situation improved slightly, but was followed by another wave of attention.
Someone else asked whose hand it was.
Everyone knows that Jun Qiulan's assistant and agent are both women, and the big hand with distinct knuckles just now was obviously a man's.
Jun Qiulan pretended not to see it, greeted everyone again, and was very sincere.
"My agent told me that everyone hadn't seen me for a long time and was worried about me, so he asked me to do a live broadcast for everyone to see."
There was a burst of laughter in the barrage.
Jun Qiulan also smiled: "Don't worry, everyone. I've just been studying recently. Everyone knows that I used to be a Taoist priest and never had any formal education. Director Yan Jing's movie just happened to be finished, and I also need to calm down, so I have been studying at home."
With this said, everyone understands.
Being able to take the initiative to learn is worthy of praise, no matter what age.
There were many more questions that followed, and Jun Qiulan picked out some that he could answer.
"What are my plans for the future? Hmm..." Jun Qiulan hesitated for a moment. "It depends on my schedule. I might not be able to appear for a long time or take on big-budget movies or TV series in the near future."
In addition to talking to Sister Xu Su, he also discussed it with Yan Jing. The subsequent arrangements may indeed have to focus on variety shows.
When he joins the crew to film, he has to cooperate with the crew's schedule, and then it will be difficult to arrange his own affairs in ancient times.
How can this rebellious administrator convince the public if he doesn't show up for a long time?
"Oh, you guys ask Yan Jing, I get along very well with him."
He didn't say anything unnecessary.
Instead, Yan Jing chuckled softly beside him, which was clearly recorded in the live broadcast room.
They were all asking who was next to them.
Jun Qiulan was speechless for a moment, but he was also very generous and frank: "Would you like to say hello to my fans and friends?"
Yan Jing then came over and said, "Hello, I'm Yan Jing."
The live broadcast room’s “Ahhhhhhhhh…” screen was completely flooded with messages.
Everyone is asking why they are together.
Jun Qiulan made up a lie without hesitation, "Director Yan's family is having a birthday soon, and they asked me to write calligraphy and draw for them."
Yan Jing had posted Jun Qiulan's works on Weibo before, so no one was surprised.
The two were reported to have appeared in the same frame many times before they joined the crew to film, and everyone tacitly acknowledged that they were friends. Moreover, Jun Qiulan was so frank that everyone thought it was nothing.
As for the CP fans, they are naturally eating so much sugar that they almost pass out.
Since Yan Jing has already appeared on the show, the two of them will just do the live broadcast together.
There was another wave of spreading the word, and soon, Yan Jing's fans also crowded into the live broadcast room, causing some lag in the barrage of comments.
However, the overall atmosphere is still very harmonious.
Most of it revolves around movies.
The filming is almost finished, and although I can’t give away any spoilers, I can still share with you some interesting things that happened on the set.
The live broadcast was scheduled to last for one hour, and in the last moment, Jun Qiulan also "performed his talent".
After hearing that Yan Jing was asking him for calligraphy and painting, he wrote one on the spot.
Yan Jing helped him grind it.
A simple birthday picture comes to life on the paper.
Just as he put pen to paper, Jun Qiulan happened to see someone asking why there were fewer folding fans in the cultural and creative store.
It’s harder to buy now.
Jun Qiulan also spoke frankly: "It's mainly because I can't manage my time. Before, thousands of folding fans needed to be inscribed and painted every month. It was a small burden for me and my teacher. I hope everyone can understand."
In this way, no one will say anything more.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing waved goodbye to everyone.
Fans expressed their reluctance to let him go, and asked him to show up occasionally even if he didn't accept any announcements and had to study.
Jun Qiulan agreed to them.
You know what, live streaming feels pretty good.
I received quite a few gifts.
The live camera turned off and there was a knock on the door.
It’s Jun Shuwan.
"Brother, you are so popular." Jun Shuwan was also squatting in the live broadcast room just now.
This was also a very new thing for her.
Jun Qiulan smiled and said, "If Wan'er debuted as a star, she would definitely be more popular than me."
Jun Shuwan shook her head and said, "Forget it then."
Her ambition and goal has always been medicine.
Although she could not save and liberate the ancient people like her brother did by studying medicine, she also believed that she could be the spark of medical science and bring back more advanced medical technology.
In the long run, this fire will surely light up the sky.
Yan Jing also said: "Don't worry, little sister. Once your brother returns to the border town, we will immediately prepare to go abroad. By then, you will have your identity cards, and you can come here to study medicine. Everything will be fine."
The medical teacher and Yan Jing’s grandfather have already been arranged.
Jun Shuwan was naturally grateful, her eyes rolling around: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Yan Jing was overjoyed and directly transferred a large red envelope on his phone, "Just as a fee for changing your words?"
Jun Shuwan was shocked. Is this how the fee for changing one's statement is calculated?
Jun Qiulan couldn't help laughing, "Take it, your sister-in-law is waiting for you to ask."
Jun Shuwan accepted the red envelope in a daze, and then found that her brother and sister-in-law were flirting with each other, so she went to the next room.
"I have to go learn self-defense from Madam Huo."
After saying that, he slipped away.
To be on the safe side, this floor was originally the house bought by Jun Qiulan, but the entire Huo family was arranged to live with Song Xirong and Jun Shuwan.
Having someone to look after you is also a form of care.
It was a bit crowded, but not so crowded that you couldn't turn around.
Anyway, he is almost at the border town.
It actually takes longer to get from the capital to the border town than it does to go there.
Besides the killers that pop up from time to time, there is snow.
The further north you go, the heavier the snow falls.
Even a hardcore off-road vehicle has to be driven carefully on the snow.
This back and forth took time.
But they roughly estimated that it was not far away.
If everything goes well, it will arrive in about three days.
The two of them packed up and drove back to the ancient times.
The closer you get to the border town, the more killers there are.
Those people knew that Jun Qiulan was definitely going back to the border town, so they arranged for the killers to find a way to catch up with him and intercept him.
Fortunately, there is the truth sponsored by Grandpa Yan.
The two of them escaped unharmed.
Yan Jing drove for the first half of the night, Jun Qiulan drove for the second half, and they went back to sleep at dawn.
Jun Qiulan knew in her heart that Yan Jingcai was really tired during this period of time.
If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for Yan Jing, he would probably have encountered more dangers and accidents on this trip to Beijing.
As a boyfriend, Yan Jing really did a lot for him.
Jun Qiulan was also wondering whether she should prepare some surprises for her boyfriend.
He sees modern people doing this.
All this will have to wait until we return to the border town.
After three and a half days of travel, they finally saw the gate of the border town.
This means the danger is over.
Jun Qiulan and Yan Jing both breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially Yan Jing.
No matter how calm Yan Jing was when he fired the gun, he actually grew up in a peaceful society.
Sometimes I feel a little psychological pressure.
After all, he is not the kind of person who gets stuck in a rut, and he won't waste time on internal conflicts.
If he didn't open the wooden warehouse, he and Jun Qiulan would be the ones to die. Those killers were aiming for their lives with every blow.
Don't be blindly kind.
When we arrived at the border town, the car was taken back.
The two walked to the foot of the city wall.
Fortunately, the road out of the border town had been paved with cement a long time ago. In addition, with the movement of people and the cleaning staff specially arranged by Duan Wen, no one's feet were stained with snow water along the way.
Because it was the middle of the night, the city gate was already closed. It was only after Huo Lian's guards shouted that someone opened the city gate and quickly welcomed them in.
The snow this year is particularly heavy.
If it weren't for the magical material like cement to build houses, there would probably be another snowstorm.
Fortunately, since last year, everyone has been repairing their houses with cement, reinforcing the roofs, and building kangs.
When people see the heavy snow now, they will only say: Auspicious snow means a good harvest.
Last year’s drought was also related to the lack of snow in winter. With heavy snow this year, there is a high probability that there will be no drought.
In addition, officials now love the people like their own children, at least that's what the people think, and they all feel that life will be better this year.
It was still the middle of the night, and Jun Qiulan did not return to the village. Instead, he took Yan Jing directly back to his house in the city.
My grandparents lived with my father in the village, and my uncles and aunts lived in the city. They all went to bed, but Song Ting and Song Yan got up quickly after hearing the report from the doorman.
Seeing Jun Qiulan return safely, the two brothers breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Song Yan: "Grandfather was so worried about you the past two days that he couldn't even eat. Should we send someone back to the village to inform you?"
Jun Qiulan thought for a moment and said, "No need. I'll be back early tomorrow morning."
If we go back to inform them at this time, it will disturb their rest.
Song Ting quickly arranged for someone to make them something hot. "It's not easy to come back in the middle of the night. Eat something hot, take a hot bath, and have a good night's rest."
The two brothers actually knew Yan Jing's identity, but they still felt a little awkward.
The main reason was that they had only heard of gay men before, and there was no one around them who was gay, nor had they seen one. Even if there was one, it would just be someone who had two male concubines.
They had never seen anyone like Jun Qiulan who was so frank about wanting to spend her whole life with one man.
It’s not that I dislike Yan Jing, I just don’t know how to get along with him and I seem to be at a loss for words.
Yan Jing was very generous. During the meal, he talked about their experiences along the way and what he saw and heard in the capital.
When talking about the capital, the two Song brothers would never be at a loss for words.
After all, they also grew up in the capital, and when talking about that place, they have quite complicated feelings.
But before they had even finished half of their meal, Huo Lian came rushing back.
He had been riding back from the military camp, his body covered in traces of wind and snow.
"General Huo." Jun Qiulan stood up. "Why are you so anxious? We've all returned safely."
When Huo Lian saw the two of them, he felt relieved, no, he felt half relieved.
His mother, wife, and children are all still in Jun Qiulan's hands.
Jun Qiulan also understood Huo Yan's anxiety. "It's so late, should we just bring the old lady and the others over?"
After a pause, he added, "By the way, there is also one of your cousins and nephew."
Huo Yan was finally relieved after hearing this.
It was too late, so he was not in a hurry to wake up his old mother in the middle of the night.
I just sat down and drank a cup of hot tea.
"What's the situation in the capital?" Huo Lian actually had some questions. "I received eighty carts of grain half a month ago. They said it was sent from the capital. But they left as soon as the grain arrived. Was that you who did it?"
Jun Qiulan was also surprised: "It's not us."
He briefly talked about what happened after he came to Beijing this time, as well as the two secret decrees in his hand.
After hearing this, Huo Lian felt complicated.
His idea coincided with Yan Jing's. This emperor had some brains, but not much.
He is greedy for power, unwilling to accept his old age, and trusts in evil ways. He wants his own son to succeed him, but he is afraid that the foundation laid by his ancestors will be destroyed in his hands, so he makes these preparations.
"So, those eighty carts of grain were also sent by the emperor?"
Jun Qiulan also guessed so, "The Emperor should know a lot about our situation here. Perhaps he also has an idea of what we are going to do now."
Having said that, he paused.
"General Huo, don't let these eighty carts of food…"
That's a joke.
Huo Lian also smiled. "Comrade Jun, don't worry. As long as I ensure the safety of my family, I, Huo Lian, will devote my life to this path."
He didn't say anything more about following Jun Qiulan, but threw himself into the new world they were pursuing.
Jun Qiulan felt more at ease listening to these words.
He doesn't need anyone to follow him, he just needs everyone to have a common goal.
Jun Qiulan: "Don't worry, the old lady and sister-in-law are safe. They have learned a lot of new things recently and are planning to bring them here for development."
Huo Lian smiled and said, "It's getting late. Let's pick them up tomorrow morning. You guys should get some rest as well."
As for the arrangements after this, let’s wait for Jun Qiulan and the others to rest for two days, and then call everyone together for a meeting.
They also wanted to tell Jun Qiulan about what had happened in the border town during this period.
Huo Lan also took a rest here.
Jun Qiulan got up as soon as the sun rose.
He sent Yan Jing back first, and also brought Huo Lan with him.
Huo Lan looked at his old mother, his wife, and their two children, all wearing large flowered jackets. The sadness and longing in his heart became choked in his throat.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
"Do people here dress like this?"
Jun Qiulan couldn't help laughing: "Come on, this is home clothes, worn at home, warm and light, and it won't hinder your movements."
In ancient times, winter clothing was not so convenient for even the rich and powerful to stay completely warm when traveling or walking.
That fox fur coat had to be thick and warm, and it weighed more than ten kilograms.
What’s the difference between that and going out wrapped in a quilt?
It took Huo Lian a long time to find his voice again. "Mother, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged. I'm an unfilial son."
Mrs. Huo was a very open-minded person. "Why are you feeling wronged? I'm living well here. Honestly, why don't you take the child back first and I'll stay here for a few more days. I haven't even finished watching the TV series yet."
Of course she knew that her son was referring to rebellion and moving to another place, but since he had decided to take this path, he should not be so sentimental.
This left Huo Lian speechless again.
Jun Qiulan did speak up, "Madam, you are welcome to stay here for a while. If possible, it won't be a problem to take you out for a walk when it's convenient for you later."
The two children of the Huo family also looked at each other eagerly, "Dad and Mom, can we stay here for a few more days?"
Obviously, he was dazzled by this colorful world.
Even if they had never left the house, this house of more than 100 square meters was enough to amaze them for a long time.
Moreover, they watched videos on Sister Wan'er's tablet. Although they were all learning videos, they also learned a lot of new knowledge.
I was just interested, but now I have to go back? I still feel a little reluctant.
Even Mrs. Huo was looking forward to it.
Obviously, he is too happy to leave.
Huo Lian opened his mouth, completely unsure of what to say.
However, Mrs. Huo still had her sense.
They are now staying at Jun Qiulan's house, which is a bit inconvenient, and they are not from this world.
After spending some time together and understanding the world, they realized that this was a completely unfamiliar world and that their previous ways of doing things no longer worked here.
They don't have ID cards, so they are illegal residents wherever they go. If they are caught, they will be in big trouble.
Mrs. Huo: "If Jibai and Sister Song have no objection, mother can stay here for a few more days. We have to go back."
Song Xirong and Jun Qiulan, mother and son, said in unison: "Of course we have no objection."
As long as you don't go out for the time being, it's okay to stay a few more days.
Madam Huo smiled and said, "I was just joking. I have to go back now. It's a good opportunity to go see Old Huo."
General Huo died in the battlefield in the summer and there was no way to send him back to Beijing for burial.
There are cenotaphs in the capital.
Even though the two children were reluctant to leave, they were sensible and missed their father even more.
"We want to go back with Daddy too."
Mrs. Huo's niece and nephew also said, "We have troubled Mrs. Song recently. It would be better for us to go back as soon as possible."
Huo Lian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought that his old mother, wife and children would abandon him after this trip.
Just then, Liu Yue brought breakfast over.
Basically, they didn't order much takeout. Liu Yue would deliver the food to them or bring the ingredients over, and they would cook their own meals.
Jun Qiulan: "Then let's have breakfast before going back. General Huo, please try the big meat buns here."
Yan Jing ate two bites as he had to rush to the crew.
"I'll come over again in the evening. Lanlan, remember to pick me up."
"Okay, be safe."
Liu Yue happened to be sending Yan Jing off, so she didn't even call Tang Te over.
To be honest, after the two of them started the live broadcast that day, the Internet was lively for a long time.
The hot search lasted for two full days.
Several entries.
The main reason is that Yan Jing rarely shows up except in connection with his movies. He is not an entertainer and does not have the habit of sharing his life on the Internet.
At most, it's a cat from a garden.
The second thing is the two of them appearing in the same frame. Even though they did not show obvious intimacy, many people still called it so sweet.
Yan Jing left first.
Jun Qiulan had breakfast and took everyone back one after another.
There are also several large boxes of luggage.
When Huo Yan saw this, he was amazed. "Mom, you brought so many things with you?"
Although the border town is a little poor, he is the highest official after all. Over the years, his family has accumulated a lot of good things.
At least I won’t let my mother and children live a hard life after they come here.
Mrs. Huo smiled and said, "They are all the things we used to use. There is also a box of tablets for the ancestors of the Huo family."
Huo Lin was touched, "Thank you for your hard work, mother."
After all the things were moved, Jun Qiulan also took his mother and younger sister back home.
"Let's all go home and reunite today, and then we'll have a meeting tomorrow."
Because of this incident, my mother and younger sister were unable to reunite with my father during the Chinese New Year.
Song Xirong even joked, "You know what? I've been married to your father for over 20 years, and we've never been apart for this long. I don't know if he's used to it."
"Of course I'm not used to it." Jun Yu's eyes turned red when he saw his wife and children.
He was left alone in the border town, missing his wife and daughter, and worrying about his son and his son's boyfriend.
That means I can't eat or sleep well.
I have lost a lot of weight.
Fortunately, his father-in-law and mother-in-law live with him, and they can still talk to each other and analyze the current situation.
"Brother Yu." Song Xirong actually missed her husband too.
The couple held hands and exchanged glances for a while before they realized that their parents and children were there.
He let go of her hand rather embarrassedly.
Jun Yu also calmed down and said, "I'm glad you're back."
He didn't care what happened in the capital. It was enough for him as long as his son came back safely.
Now, Huo Lian's family has also taken him in, and they no longer have to worry.
During this period, although Jun Qiulan was not there, Jun Yu, Huo Lan and Su Changxun met each other frequently.
Every time we meet, we discuss subsequent development issues.
Now a charter has been drawn up, and we are waiting for Jun Qiulan to come back and make the decision.
Jun Qiulan's return means that the imperial court should confront them head-on and expand their territory.
In order to get ahead of the imperial court, we must first capture the nearby cities.
Of course, Jun Yu was not talking about the several prefectures that had formed an alliance with them before, but the several prefectures that had spread outward.
Jun Qiulan also agreed to this arrangement. Before the war started, he could "peacefully" occupy the city and "gently persuade" the local officials to surrender. This would be better than waiting for a war to break out and the people to suffer.
However, before that, Jun Qiulan still had two important things to do.
