Chapter 6 The Tang Dynasty Belongs to Shang Yang and Love
Luoyang, on the bank of Luoshui.
Above the East China Sea.
Shang Yang hugged love and flew quickly towards the Central Plains. ①
The demonic energy spontaneously gathered into an awl shape, eliminating the resistance and wind pressure, and the demonic power covered by the merchant sheep on Ai's body helped Ai resist the strong speed pressure. As a result, although the average flight speed of Shang Yang is close to the speed of sound, Ai does not have any discomfort, but still looks around excitedly.
At night, the sea looks sparkling under the moonlight, and occasionally splashes small waves, but also quickly disappears in the subtle waves.
"Datang ......"
Love excitedly repeated these two words inexplicably.
In this era of District 11, in the minds of the people of District 11, these two words are in a sense equivalent to the "High Heaven" where the gods live.
Although her love as a royal concubine (2) has no status in the royal family, it can still make her learn more things.
Of course, this also makes her in the palace yearn for the outside world even more.
But even if she longed for the outside world, for the unparalleled country across the sea, it was only in the imagination of love, and she never imagined that she would be able to go there one day.
"It's almost an hour before we reach our destination."
Shang Yang turned his face sideways, smiled and said love, and then suddenly asked as if he had thought of something.
"By the way, Xiao Ai, you know Chinese, right?"
"Hmm~"
Love nodded, Chinese is a compulsory course for aristocrats in this era, and if you can use Chinese to make poetry, it will be a face-saving thing.
"Let's hear it~"
Shang Yang smiled and said.
"I said yes, for sure."
Ai smiled and said this sentence in Chinese, which is still a standard Yayan (3).
It's not easy, this girl.
Shang Yang looked at Ai who was smiling happily with some surprise.
"By the way, Shang Yang, it's the destination, but where is it?"
Ai began to ask Shang Yang questions in Chinese.
"What we are going to is the current capital of the Wu Zhou Dynasty of the Tang Empire, the divine capital of Luoyang."
Shang Yang was also not polite, and began to communicate directly with love in Chinese.
"Ah, and, love, how many days will you be away from the palace without being discovered?"
Shang Yang asked.
"Shang Yang only thinks of this problem now~"
Love sneered, stayed with Shang Yang for a long time, and love let go.
"Don't worry, no one will go to see me for three or five days."
When I said this, I didn't feel any loss or sadness, but was a little happy.
"Even if there are palace people who go to deliver food, they are only put where they should be placed, and I will clean up the dishes and everything by myself."
"Actually, I wish they found out I'm missing, it might be funny! ④”
Love smiled and said that he also has a black belly.
"That's it~"
Shang Yang nodded.
"Ah, also, Shang Yang, doesn't Datang enforce a 'curfew' at night like Kyoto?"
Love continued to ask.
"Today is the eve of the birthday of the Emperor Zetian of the Tang Kingdom, and all the territory of the Tang Dynasty is open to curfew, so you can have a good time."
Shang Yang explained with a smile.
"Wow~"
Ai cooperated and screamed, and before Shang Yang could laugh at her, she laughed herself.
"That's right, love, you can sleep for a while, and then you can play energetically after a while."
Shang Yang Jian yì Road.
"Don't!"
The soft love refused, and her hands around Shang Yang were a little harder.
"I like the feeling of flying, I like the feeling of freedom, I want to remember them firmly and never forget them at all!"
Hm~
Shang Yang naturally has no opinion, and a qiē takes the girl as the top priority.
In this way, love is really as she said, in the next hour or so, her excitement has not diminished at all, and she has been letting Shang Yang tell her about the Tang Dynasty and the affairs of Middle Earth.
This is an excellent opportunity to express his history, it turns out that as a student who loves liberal arts, Shang Yang's history is not bad, so just like Shang Yang's history teacher, Shang Yang began to talk to Miss Ai about his own history, not only the Central Plains, India, Athens, ancient Rome, Persia, Egypt.
All the things that Shang Yang had heard and understood, he began to pull up to love, and successfully harvested several of Miss Ai's amazed eyes.
When it came to Babylon, Shang Yang was about to tell Miss Ai the story of the King of Oyo and his friends, and happened to see the coastline of the Central Plains, so he hurriedly beckoned Ai to take a look.
Ai was also super excited, his eyes followed the direction indicated by Shang Yang, desperately trying to see the approaching coastline that Shang Yang said, but unfortunately with human eyesight, it was still too reluctant.
But this did not detract from Miss Ai's interest in the slightest.
Looking at Ai's pretty face full of excitement because of excitement, Shang Yang was also relieved.
It's really in vain, we flew thousands of kilometers in the middle of the night.
[Shang Yang, it seems that you really like this Miss Ai.] ]
Miss Lord, who had not spoken all this time, said suddenly.
What kind of words is this, Lord Shensan, she loves sauce! How could I not like it.
Shang Yang answered Miss Lord God as a matter of course.
However, before the main god could reply, several other girls suddenly appeared in Shang Yang's mind.
Ah~ Lord God Sang, when will we go to the world that belongs to the nail palace......
We've been listening to a lot of nail palace sounds lately~
Suddenly I really want to fall in love with Shana-chan or Louise......
[…… Shang Yang, you are really terrible! ]
The capital of the Tang Dynasty (Wu Zhou). Luoyang, the capital of the gods
According to the modern moment, it is now around 22:40, but the whole Luoyang City is still immersed in a sea of joy, the lights are bright, and the beautiful fireworks keep blooming in the dark night sky, setting off the Milky Way in the sky, and it can also show the beauty of the moment. The market was crowded with people, the cries of hawkers, the rumbling of horse-drawn carriages, and the laughter of passers-by.
The first year of the Book of Heaven was the fifth year of the Emperor's accession to the throne, and the world was fine, and the people enjoyed peace. It is also the holy birthday of the Empress of Heaven, and the Empress issued an edict, regardless of the army and the people, the whole world celebrates, and opens the Tongtian Palace, Heaven (5) for three days, a cadre of officials and people, can enter to visit and worship.
"Good, that's amazing!"
He covered his small mouth slightly open in surprise with his hands, and looked up at this heaven that was one hundred and fifty meters (6) high and seemed to reach straight into the sky.
"This giant tower won't go straight to the heavenly realm~"
"Ah, although I have been mentally prepared, I am still shocked."
Shang Yang also raised his head and looked at this incomparable five-story wooden tower.
Although one hundred and fifty meters is a conservative number for skyscrapers in later generations, can you imagine a giant tower with the height of three Xi'an Big Wild Goose Pagodas?
Shang Yang and Ai stood on the platform carrying heaven at this time, looking up at this huge tower, and people were constantly flocking to it.
Shang Yang and Ai chose a remote place on the outskirts of Luoyang City, after entering Luoyang City, Ai pulled Shang Yang straight to heaven, just outside the city, the two had already seen this brightly lit giant tower.
"Shang Yang! Hurry up! I want to see it! ”
Ai suddenly grabbed Shang Yang's cuffs and urged anxiously, her eyes shining with a sparkling color.
"I want to stand on the highest place and watch!"
Syllable!
Shang Yang snapped his fingers! Equally happy.
"Then let's rush!"
So, among the people who were vying to enter heaven, there was an extra pair of young men and girls.
As soon as I entered heaven, love was shocked again.
What a huge Buddha statue it was!
It has a compassionate countenance.
It can even stand several people on its little finger!
The people were also so shocked by this great Buddha statue that they forgot to scream, and almost all of them came in with solemn faces and folded their hands, and bowed deeply to the Great Buddha.
Tears of love involuntarily overflowed into the eyes.
Mom......
Immediately afterwards, before Shang Yang could comfort her, Ai wiped away her tears with her cuffs, gently closed her eyes, and folded her hands.
Shang Yang stood next to Ai, saw her move like this, smiled, and moved his eyes to the Big Buddha.
After a while, Ai opened her eyes, although they were a little red.
But the happy smile has returned to her pretty face.
"Hurry up! Shang Yang! ”
This time, it was Shang Yang's hand that Ai held.
Her eyes were red, and she happily urged Shang Yang.
"I'm going to the highest place! ⑦”
Although it was already late at night, Love still did not show a trace of fatigue, and she was full of vitality to pull the merchant sheep and climb up the circular stairs around her.
Every time she reached the first floor, she had to go outside (8) to take a look at Luoyang and let out an excited shout.
The fifth floor of heaven. Top floor
By the time Shang Yang and Ai reached this level, there were already many people vying to look at the entire Luoyang City, and some timid legs were trembling, but they were still excited.
Love excitedly held on to the handrails and looked at almost all the brightly lit Luoyang City.
The Taichu Palace was shining with golden light, and it was the Heavenly Empress who was feasting the ministers.
The magnificence and splendor of the Temple of Babel let everyone know what a great country is.
Heaven stands up to the heavens and the earth, and just like that, it holds up the world.
The wind blows the long hair of love.
Love just stood like this, holding Shang Yang's hand tightly, trying to remember this qiē firmly.
Never forget.
This qiē has gone far beyond all fantasies of love.
This is the Tang Dynasty, the greatest country in the world.
This country satisfies all dreams of love.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
More than a dozen beautiful huge fireworks bloomed in the starry sky under the Milky Way at the same time.
Shang Yang is also very excited, and the Tang Dynasty of this era has also surpassed his imagination.
Just when he wanted to greet Xiao Ai to see this Luoyang City.
A gust of incense.
Love has hugged him tightly.
The chest was wet.
Shang Yang paused, and also hugged the girl.
The girl's tense body suddenly relaxed.
"I thought it was a dream......"
Love cried and said.
"It's not a dream, it's the most real one."
Shang Yang gently patted Ai's back and comforted.
The girl lying on Shang Yang's chest suddenly showed the most beautiful smile.
It's a smile that sees what you are praying for.
"Shangyang ......"
"Huh?"
"Don't leave me ......"
"Ah......h
PS: (1) The flight speed of the merchant sheep is not outstanding, but it can fly continuously for a long time, which is one of the characteristics of the merchant sheep;
(2) The concubine refers to the daughter who is not born later, but the daughter born by the concubine, that is, the daughter of the concubine, of course, the status of the concubine is not the same, as can be seen from the previous chapter, the identity of the biological mother who loves this life is very low, and it is likely to be a palace maid;
(3) Yayan is the ancient Mandarin, ancient Chinese Mandarin for thousands of years are based on Shaanxi dialect as the standard, due to the supremacy of ancient China, but also make the surrounding countries mostly Chinese Yayan as the official language, I Shaanxi dialect mighty~! Of course, everyone should think that Yayan is the current Mandarin, otherwise I always feel weird if I love sauce and a mouthful of Shaanxi dialect......
(4) In addition to the literal meaning of Ai Jiang's sentence, it is also a vague inquiry to Shang Yang, asking Shang Yang if he can take him away, Shang Yang doesn't know whether he didn't understand or pretends not to understand, and Ai Jiang didn't continue to mention it, just like Shang Yang didn't take the initiative to ask Ai Jiang why she was the daughter of the royal family but lived alone in a palace like a captivity, Ai Jiang would not take the initiative to ask Shang Yang if she could take her away;
(5) Tongtian Palace was originally called Vientiane Shrine, in the original history, before Shang Yang and Xiao Ai came, Vientiane Shrine and Heaven (then the Buddha Hall of the Emperor of Heaven to worship the Buddha, a height of 150 meters, there is a 30 to 40 meters of the Buddha Hall of the Giant Buddha, this is the real tyrant!) It was set on fire by a guy named Xue Huaiyi, Tongtian Palace was rebuilt in the second year of the Book of Heaven, and there are butterflies here;
(6) It is definitely not an exaggeration, in fact, this is not counting the height of the base, you must know that the largest pyramid of Khufu is only 146 meters, and this paradise is still wooden! That's why I said that the Tang Dynasty was a very perverted country, and that national strength was unimaginable;
(7) This plot refers to Ai-chan's liberation of her heart, she wants to stand in the highest place, she wants to stand in the highest place, and live freely than anyone else, and Ai-chan's consciousness here will also promote the development of the next plot.
