From Xiaoao to travel around the world

Chapter 171 Chang'an
Chang'an is located in the Guanzhong Plain on the south bank of the Weihe River.

There are Qinchuan Zhongnan Mountains in the north and south, as well as Liangshan and Yaoshan as natural barriers.

On the fertile soil of the plain, there are eight river systems, namely Wei, Jing, Feng, Lao, Yu, Yu, Chan, and Ba, intertwined and defended.

The earliest era where the capital was established can be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty.

Then came Qin, Han, and Western Jin.By the time Li Yuan took Chang'an as his capital, it was already the No. 11 regime.

Since the first emperor swept Liuhe and created the unification of the world here; Zhang Qian went out to open up the Silk Road and communicated the economic culture of the East and the West, which made the city famous.

In the later hands of Li Shimin, this city will become a world famous city that has been prosperous for hundreds of years.

It once became the economic and cultural center of the world, presenting the grand occasion of all nations coming to Korea.

Chang'an in the early Sui Dynasty was named "Daxing".

After Li Yuan took over, it was renamed Chang'an, implying long-term peace and order.

Excluding Miyagi and Imperial City in the center, the entire city is divided into 25 square cities by 110 streets from east to west, north to south.

The appearance is as strict as a chessboard, and because of the different functional areas, it shows different characteristics like a neat field ridge, spreading like a scroll on the plain, until the end of the sky is hard to see.

The main street in the city is the three main streets running through the north and south and the east and west.

The most spacious one is Zhuque Street, which is similar to Luoyang Tianjie, and it is also about forty feet.

Although the ground is only neatly paved with slightly rough stone slabs, the color of the stone slabs is relatively light. Standing on it and looking at the sides of the road, it is easy to give people a tidy and shocking feeling.

When Yang Qing docked with the boat, it was already mid-October, the time when autumn and winter meet.

In the evening, in front of the port on the east bank of the Weihe River, the scene of thousands of boats crisscrossing is no less than that of Luoyang.

"Luoyan can only accompany the young master here, and I will hide in the dark in the city from now on."

After greeting Yang Qing who was standing on the bow, Shen Luoyan immediately found Sha Fu and mixed with him in the Sha family's crowd.

After a few days, I got to know Yang Qing better, and Luo Shixin no longer insisted on following him.After giving him a fistful salute, she also followed Shen Luoyan away.

Yang Qing glanced back at the crowd, and saw Kou Zhong winking at him veiledly, apparently still wanting to disguise his identity as a "miracle doctor" to the end.

Of course, it is impossible for Shen Luoyan to come to Luoyang with just Luo Shixin, and there must be other arrangements under her command, and it is not even certain that she and Li Mi have other plans.

It's just that these have nothing to do with Yang Qing.

Seeing that the ship was less than [-] feet away from the shore, he didn't wait any longer, and with a shake of his clothes, he jumped over a dozen ships in front of him, and landed lightly on the shore of the port.

This action attracted the attention of countless people in the port, but there was not much disturbance.

After all, now that Li Tang is newly established, his momentum is booming, just like the rising sun.

Chang'an is a place where the essence of the world gathers. I don't know how many strange people come and go from north to south every day, and they have long been familiar with it.

Not long after Yang Qing walked along the port towards the city gate, he has completely turned into an ordinary person in countless streams.

When Yongle Gate, the main gate of Chang'an East City, came into view, a light and spiritual aura clearly appeared in his induction.

His eyes moved to one side, and he met Shi Feixuan who was dressed as a scholar.

Seeing Yang Qing, Shi Feixuan smiled and nodded, and when he approached, she naturally walked through the crowd and came to her side.

"Young master is indeed a trustworthy person, and he has already come here to make an appointment before January arrives."

Without squinting, Yang Qing looked at the solid wall in front of him and said, "It's just a human relationship. After this time, I don't owe Zen Master Kong anything."

"Naturally." Shi Feixuan responded, and then said, "It's just that I thought you would cover up a little bit, but I didn't expect you to come to Chang'an in such a grand manner."

"There's nothing to cover up. Didn't you say everything is worthwhile?"

Concubine Shixuan smiled helplessly: "King Qin will restrain himself, and Li Yuan will not act too aggressively if he maintains it.

But in Chang'an, Prince Li Jiancheng is still in power, so there are always some things that I can't take care of. "

"Don't care about it?" Yang Qing raised her eyebrows slightly: "Then don't worry about it."

"You must not act recklessly." Concubine Shixuan's expression tightened: "The situation in Chang'an seems to be stable now, but in fact there are dark tides surging. Not only is King Qin and the prince fighting for power, but all forces from all over the world are gathering here.

It's hard to say what the consequences will be if there is a slight disturbance. "

"I am the emperor of Luoyang, so I don't care what the consequences will be for him in Chang'an."

The two of them had already followed the crowd through the city gate and walked up to Suzaku Street while they were talking, and the scene inside the city came into view.

Yang Qing is no stranger to Chang'an. Leaving aside the modern times in the future, he has passed by several times in the previous two lives alone, but he did not enter the city to play.

No matter the shops or houses on both sides of the long street, they are all big houses and deep courtyards.

Rich people's houses are stacked with tall buildings, which are extremely majestic and magnificent.

All the way along the street, countless brackets and cornices extend to the sky above the street, and from time to time, a wide bridge for people to pass can be seen, running across the tall buildings on the left and right.

It is difficult for most people in later generations to imagine how prosperous Chang'an was at this time.

Concubine Shixuan was obviously used to this place, seeing Yang Qing looking around with great interest, she didn't disturb her.

After a while, he said again: "I knew that your ambition is not in the world, otherwise I would not invite you to Chang'an, let alone advocate peace with you in front of King Qin."

"Didn't you come here to deal with Shi Zhixuan?" Yang Qing said with a smile, "What is peace is the most important thing? Li Shimin and I have never met before, so this is a bit out of line."

"Super Gang?" Shi Feixuan's face was suffocated, then her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Although your statement is novel, it is also accurate."

She looked at Yang Qing with a smile, but she couldn't hide her astonishment deep in her eyes, and then asked, "After watching for a while, how do you think Chang'an compares with Luoyang?"

Yang Qing shook his head and said, "They are all Chinese treasures, so there is no need to compare them."

"That does seem like something you should say."

With a sigh of unknown meaning, Shi Feixuan raised her head and looked up at the sky.

Under Yang Qing's keen perception, her breathing was disordered, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

"Are you OK?"

Concubine Shixuan, who had always been calm in her impression, suddenly had this change, and Yang Qing couldn't figure it out for a moment.

"It's nothing, I'll take you to the residence first and then talk about it."

When Concubine Shi Xuan turned her head to look at Yang Qing again, her expression was a bit indescribably complicated, which made Yang Qing quite puzzled.

Not long after the two of them walked, the Yong'an Canal, which was more than ten feet wide, appeared in front of them.

Above the canal, the simple and ancient Yuema Bridge connects the two banks, and the wide bridge deck is full of pedestrians, cars and horses.

At both ends of the stone bridge and along the shore, countless weeping willows line up one after another in the autumn breeze, casting a large green shade in the setting sun.

Together with the flow of people coming and going, together with the countless cornices on the street, it shows a lively and fragrant ancient picture scroll.

Stepping up the bridge, Yang Qing was about to ask where his residence was, when he saw a group of people coming towards him, one of them was Xu Ziling disguised as a scar-faced quack.

Not only Yang Qing knew his appearance, but Shi Feixuan had also seen him before.

Xu Ziling didn't seem to expect to meet the two of them here, he was taken aback for a while, and soon regained his composure, and only greeted them vaguely with his eyes.

Yang Qing naturally wouldn't expose him, Shi Feixuan also pretended not to see it.

They meet each other and pass each other without knowing each other.

Even after walking a long distance, Yang Qing could still feel Xu Ziling watching him intermittently from behind.

He knew in his heart that Xu Ziling had feelings for Shi Feixuan.But the current Shi Feixuan only regards him and Kou Zhong as potential opponents, and has not yet developed any other ideas.

And until the two got closer to each other in the end, Concubine Shixuan finally chose to return to the teacher's school, nothing really happened.

This kind of staring didn't completely disappear until he walked down the Yuema Bridge, and Yang Qing stopped in front of a five-story building led by Shi Feixuan.

"Jufu Tower."

Looking at the cylindrical appearance in front of him, the five-story building nearly ten feet high, Yang Qing asked, "You put me here?"

Concubine Shi Xuan smiled and said: "Because it is a private invitation, the residences that Chang'an has set up for envoys from all over the country are naturally not allowed to go, and it does not suit your status.

Jufu Building is considered to be the best place in Chang'an, the upper three floors can be lived in, and the lower part is a restaurant.There are all kinds of shops around here, and it is very convenient. "

Yang Qing didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, and walked into the building with her.

Go all the way up the wooden stairs, turn to a spacious corridor at the top of the fifth floor, and finally enter a room that can be called luxurious.

The moment the door was closed, the countless noises outside were blocked.

"Aren't you leaving yet? Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling may already be in the city at this time, you probably don't have so much time to spend with me."

Looking at Shi Feixuan, Yang Qing instinctively felt that from the moment before she boarded the bridge just now, her every move seemed to have become very weird.

"I don't know what brother Yang thinks of Li Shimin."

Concubine Shixuan didn't answer Yang Qing's words, but instead asked Li Shimin very abruptly.

"He'll be a good emperor."

Replying casually, Yang Qing didn't intend to find out why she suddenly changed her name.

Just walked to the side of the room along the street and opened the window, looking silently at the crowded street below and the endless eaves under the setting sun.

Breathing out slowly, Shi Feixuan seemed to use all her strength to stabilize her thoughts, and then said softly: "It's getting late, Feixuan won't disturb you.

Let's talk about everything after Brother Yang has rested. "

After the words fell, she pushed the door and left.

The slightly heavy footsteps sounded in Yang Qing's ears, and she seemed a little anxious.

Frowning and looking at the re-closed door, he couldn't figure out what was wrong with this fairy teacher.

……

Concubine Shixuan left Jufu Building, walked through the crowd several times slowly and quickly, and in a blink of an eye, she had entered a quiet courtyard near the imperial city in the east of the city.

This house, which occupies quite a large area and is hung with a plaque of Yunheguan, is a private residence arranged by Li Shimin for her.

She opened the door and entered, walked through the front yard and saw Master Liao Kong standing in the garden.

"You seem to lose your mind every time you see him." You didn't turn your head back, and only looked at each other to find that Shi Feixuan was unusual: "This time it will be more serious."

Concubine Shixuan stepped forward slowly, took a deep breath and showed a bitter smile: "I invited Zen Master and four holy monks to Chang'an, the original intention is to deal with Shi Zhixuan.

However, I have not started yet, and I am in a mess. I am really ashamed of the Zen master. "

"It doesn't matter." Liao Kong calmly shook his head and said with a smile, "But what did you find?"

"It is true that there are some new discoveries, and because of this, my heart is in turmoil." Shi Feixuan said slowly: "But this matter is not only too shocking, but also involves the top secret of the younger generation, please forgive me for not telling Zen Master."

"Amitabha."

A Buddha's trumpet rang out from Kongkou, and an invisible microwave immediately swayed in the air around him centered on him.

Concubine Shixuan was swept away by the invisible ripples, and she felt a sudden peace in her heart, and countless distracting thoughts were all smoothed away.

She bowed and saluted, then went back to her room to sit quietly without saying a word.

But after sitting for a long time, there was always a thought lingering in her mind, which disturbed her mind:

"How did he know that Li Shimin must be the emperor, or a good emperor?"

……

Shajia.

After Yang Qing left, Kou Zhong was relieved to see Shen Luoyan and Luo Shixin leave, and he no longer worried about being found out all the time.

Taking advantage of his friendship to cure the illnesses of the members of the Sha family, Sha Fu arranged for him to live in the Sha family, planning to join Xu Ziling and then plan to hunt for treasure.

After leaving marks along the road that only he and Xu Ziling could identify, he was about to go back to rest when he happened to see several monks among the crowd.

With just one glance, he recognized that these were the four holy monks who had fought against him in Luoyang Jingnian Temple.

At that time, he insisted on being undefeated in ten strokes, in exchange for Shi Feixuan's promise not to interfere with him.

After seeing several people at this time, Kou Zhong immediately returned to Sha's residence cautiously.

"What are the old monks doing in Chang'an?"

After more than ten days of traveling and traveling, he lay on the bed and fell asleep after thinking about it for a while.

I slept until midnight, when I suddenly heard a strange noise at the window lattice.

Kou Zhong turned over and sat up, and saw Xu Ziling coming in through the window.

"Haha, Young Master Ling. You and Ssangyong finally broke through many obstacles and met under Li Shimin's eyes."

He smiled and stepped forward to hug Xu Ziling's shoulders, but saw that the latter was depressed and extremely unhappy.

"What's wrong with you? Are you injured?"

Kou Zhong groped around him while talking, causing Xu Ziling to smile helplessly: "It's nothing, it's just... Forget it, let me tell you when you arrived first."

"Of course I only arrived today, otherwise why would I leave a mark now."

"I arrived two days earlier than you."

"What did you find?"

"Not yet." Xu Ziling sat down on the chair, leaning his elbows on the table: "I sneaked into Li Shimin's Xingchanglong's caravan, fought against Li Jiancheng's Guangshengxing a few times along the way, and haven't had time to hunt for treasure yet."

Kou Zhong raised his hand and rubbed his chin, gloated and said, "These two brothers fought very hard."

Xu Ziling said angrily: "No matter how hard the fight is, if you win a family, you will always be beaten. Why are you happy?"

"Uh..." Kou Zhong stopped his movements for an instant, and then he said in relief: "Forget it, don't mention them. Guess who I met when I entered the city? Who did I meet on the way?"

Xu Ziling glanced at him, and said listlessly: "Don't be impatient, speak quickly! I'll go back later."

"Hey." With smirks, Kou Zhong walked up to him again: "I saw your princess also came to Chang'an."

"What princess?"

"Princess Dongming."

"What does she have to do with me?" Xu Ziling waved his hands lacking in interest, and looked at Kou Zhong: "What else?"

"And..." Kou Zhong stood up straight, and said to Xu Ziling seriously, "Four Great Sage Monks."

"They also came to Chang'an?"

"It's not surprising that they came to Chang'an." Kou Zhong said solemnly: "But coming at this time, it's hard to say that it has nothing to do with us."

After finishing speaking, he put his hands on Xu Ziling's shoulders, and looked directly into the latter's eyes: "Ziling, Shi Xiaoniu broke her promise, this time you have to stand by my side, and don't be influenced by her anymore!"

"I won't." Xu Ziling nodded heavily: "Actually, I also saw Concubine Shixuan in the evening, she was with Brother Yang Qing."

"I already knew that."

Xu Ziling asked suspiciously, "What do you know?"

Kou Zhong will meet Yang Qing in Luoyang and explain why he came to Chang'an, Xu Ziling sighed after hearing this: "Xiao Zhong, it is understandable for her to support Li Shimin and run around in various places.

But why do I always feel unhappy when I see the two of them today. "

"Hahaha." Kou Zhong suppressed his voice and threw himself on the bed, rolling and laughing: "I said earlier that you were fascinated by Shi Xiaoniu, but you didn't admit it before.

Isn't that jealousy now?Ha ha. "

"What's so funny about that? It's better than you promiscuous bastard!"

After finishing the words, he rushed forward to wrestle with Kou Zhong, after a while, both of them calmed down, and their hearts felt much more relaxed.

"Actually, what I'm most afraid of is that Yang Qing will side with Shi Feixuan and deal with us."

Xu Ziling was surprised and said: "Probably not, I don't think his character is like being manipulated by others."

"It makes sense. After all, a person like Li Mi and Shen Luoyan should keep his head down in front of him." Kou Zhong's eyes lighted slightly, and he looked up at the beams of the roof:

"I saw him performing lightness kung fu on the road, and it was even more powerful than the Yun Shuai we had seen. On the Dongming faction's boat, he even used his momentum to knock down a lot of money. Tsk tsk, what a majesty."

Xu Ziling asked curiously, "Did he have a conflict with Dongming faction?"

"Ha, I want to talk to you about this."
