The Lin'an Chengzhong River runs through the north and south of the city, connects the Beiguan Water Gate to the Grand Canal in the north, and leads directly to the Inner Imperial City where Phoenix Mountain is located in the south. Its direct flow is also connected to rivers such as the East River and the Small River in the east of the city. Along both sides of this river is the wide and straight royal road, from south to north, Renhefang, Baohefang, Xingqingfang, Dingminfang, Lirenfang, Jishanfang and other more than ten high-end people's squares are like a string of pearls on both sides of the middle river royal road. The shops on both sides of the street are even more row upon row, where every inch of land is valuable, and there are countless Qinglou Washe taverns and song shops, which are extremely prosperous.

The original scale of Lin'an City was not small, and it was already the largest state capital in the southeast of the Great Song Dynasty a long time ago, with a population of no less than one million. When the iron hooves of the Jin people set foot on the head of Bianliang City, the people of the Great Song Dynasty fled south one after another, and no less than millions of people crossed south since the Jianyan period, and the population of the south increased dramatically. At that time, the population of Lin'an City, which was only called Hangzhou Prefecture, began to increase dramatically. It was not until the imperial court finally set the temporary capital in Hangzhou and renamed it Lin'an Mansion, the southern capital of the Great Song Dynasty ushered in unprecedented development and population expansion. The latest government count is 1.6 million people, but in a very short period of time, the city's population has exceeded 2 million. Looking at the world, Lin'an Mansion is undoubtedly the largest city in the world.

In the beginning, it was extremely chaotic, and the sudden doubling of the population of a city can be imagined. But it only took a few years for Lin'an City to digest all this with great tolerance. The imperial court made a re-planning for Lin'an Mansion, the scope of the main city was expanded, the imperial city was placed in the Phoenix Mountain in the south, the waterways in the city were excavated and widened, the people's squares were re-planned and concentrated, and dozens of large-scale gathering areas were set up. After some actions, after the dust fell, Lin'an Mansion finally came out of the chaos.

Population growth is certainly not necessarily a bad thing, it brings more opportunities and more demand. The integration of the north and the south has given birth to many unexpected things. The great integration of food, clothing, language, living habits and even behavior patterns has taken place in the corners of this city. In the midst of this great agitation of fusion, this ancient city is full of youthful vitality, and every day is so prosperous and busy, full of hope and joy of nirvana rebirth.

Fang Zi'an walked slowly on the long street on the east side of Zhong'an Bridge, where he often came. At first, it was out of the curiosity of the time-traveler, and there was a sense of sightseeing, but later Fang Zi'an became more and more integrated into this era out of love for this place. What he likes is the bustle and liveliness of the place, and the attitude of everyone who works hard to live. Whenever you are depressed, as long as you come here for a walk, there is no reason not to live a good life and not be motivated. Because everyone here shows a passion for life.

On the wide channel of the Middle River, ships loaded with goods shuttle across the water. Fang Zi'an saw that there were more than a dozen colorful dragon boats leaning next to the big pier on the side of Zhong'an Bridge, and suddenly remembered that tomorrow was the Dragon Boat Festival. Every Dragon Boat Festival, several rivers in the city talk about holding dragon boat races, which is a very lively scene. This year, of course, the same is true.

Crossing the Zhong'an Bridge to the Hexi Royal Road, there is a huge market in front of you, which is also the destination of Fang Zi'an's trip. Today he is here to buy something. Tables, chairs, benches, dishes, teapots, bedding, clothes, four treasures, etc., and then find a few craftsmen to repair their own rooms. My home is so dilapidated. Before coming, Fang Zi'an made a list of purchases, since he made a windfall yesterday, Fang Zi'an has no reason not to improve his living conditions, and there is everything in the big market in front of him, and everything can be bought.

It took a whole morning, and Fang Zi'an finally finished purchasing all the things that needed to be purchased. The boats hired under the pier were also piled up. Fang Zi'an wanted to have a meal at the tavern next to him before leaving, but the boatman was in a hurry, and they wanted to catch up with the next business, so they had to get on the boat and leave. The rivers in the city are connected by forks, and some are artificially dug to connect, in order to alleviate the traffic pressure caused by the large population. These tributaries of the river are inaccessible to large boats, but they are extremely convenient for some small boats carrying passengers and goods. Therefore, it took less than half an hour for the full ship of goods to dock at a small pier on the west side of Sanyuanfang. The shipwreath helped unload the goods, and Fang Zi'an spent 400 wen on the wharf to hire two coolies to help move the goods to Sanyuanfang Xinghua Hutong.

When Fang Zi'an was sweating profusely and carrying the two cages back to the door of his small courtyard, there were two people standing there waiting for him at the door.

"Brother Zi'an? You're back. Oh, teach us to wait. One of them recognized Fang Zi'an, who was unkempt and sweaty.

"Why are you here? Brother Qian, Brother Zhao. Hurry up, help me open the courtyard door, this thing is so heavy that it makes my shoulders hurt. Fang Zi'an shouted loudly.

The person who came was Fang Zi'an's classmate in Qixia Academy, one was named Qian Kang and the other was Zhao Changlin. Qian Zhao and the others hurriedly stepped forward to help, and then moved a bunch of things to the yard with two hired coolies. Fang Zi'an paid the money and sent the two coolies away, and then wiped his sweat and saluted the two classmates.

"What is the wind that blows you here? Isn't there a holiday in the Dragon Boat Festival of the Academy? Didn't you go home? Fang Zi'an asked with a smile.

These two are fellow villagers, their home is not in Lin'an City, and they are from Yuhang County, so they have this question.

"I was going back, but ...... After thinking about it, I still won't go back. It's good to stay in the academy and study well. Moreover, Brother Changlin was not in the mood to go back. Qian Kang said with a smile.

"Also, it's been a few months since the autumn season, and I really have to prepare for the exam with a good student. Not...... Why is Brother Changlin in no mood again? I didn't say a word for a long time, why did I cry with a sad face? Fang Zi'an said as he entered the house, preparing to take the things piled up in the yard into the house.

'Poof', Zhao Changlin suddenly knelt down in front of Fang Zi'an, stretched out his hand and slapped himself.

"I'm damned...... It's me who talks too much, and I hurt you, Brother Zi'an. Beat you to death a mouthy bastard, causing Brother Zi'an to be punished by this and ruining his future. Brother Zi'an, you beat me, scold me, I should die. Zhao Changlin slapped himself while crying loudly.

Fang Zi Anleng froze in place, stunned and said, "Brother Changlin, what are you doing?" What's crazy? Get up. ”

Qian Kang smacked his lips beside him and said, "Brother Zi'an, Brother Changlin, he ...... Ay...... He said that he leaked his mouth, and told the dog thief Huang Wannian about your Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and that guy made a big fuss, and this was known by Zhou Shanchang. The mountain chief was angry and expelled you from the division. Brother Changlin regretted it. The big mistake was made, and I felt really guilty in my heart. Brother Changlin was regretting himself all day last day, and found me early this morning and asked me to accompany him to find you to make amends. Ay! Who would have thought that things would turn out like this. ”

Fang Zi'an was stunned, and immediately understood everything.

Fang Zi'an still made a few good friends in the academy, for example, the two in front of him are quite good friends. Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin's family situation is much better than Fang Zi'an's, when Fang Zi'an first entered Qixia Academy and lived in embarrassment, these two classmates gave Fang Zi'an help from time to time and helped Fang Zi'an get through a lot of embarrassment. Therefore, Fang Zi'an was grateful to them and became a friend who talked about everything. In their free time on weekdays, they travel together to play in the mountains and rivers, recite poems and lyrics, talk about life ideals, plan their future prospects, and get along very well.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Fang Zi'an sold words and won 30 taels of silver, although Fang Zian didn't want to publicize it, but he didn't hide it from these two close friends. This kind of good deed is naturally to be shared with good friends. Fang Zi'an also took out two taels of silver to invite two good friends to a good banquet at the Hongbin Building by the West Lake to celebrate the event together.

After the East Window incident that day, Fang Zi'an's first reaction was that Wan Chunyuan leaked his identity, which let the matter reach Zhou Junzheng's ears, which led to such consequences. However, when Qin Xiqing came to the door in person yesterday, he clearly said that this matter was not leaked out by their Wan Chunyuan at all, which made Fang Zi'an a little puzzled at that time. Fang Zi'an also thought about this matter last night, Qin Xiqing shouldn't lie to his face, but since it wasn't leaked by Wan Chunyuan, the only person who knew about it was a friend of the academy. But Fang Zi'an immediately denied this idea, he greeted Qian Kang and Zhao Changlin, and asked them not to talk about it, and these two would not take their words as a deaf ear.

But the current situation is that this matter was really spread by Zhao Changlin.

"Brother Zi'an, you scold me, you can beat me. It's all because I was quick to talk that day. Huang Wannian's guy slandered you behind his back with others, so I reasoned with him. He said that you have been generous since the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, and you must have stolen other people's money. In a fit of anger, I told you about your Mid-Autumn Festival selling words and exposed his lies to my face. At that time, he was just angry, but he didn't think too much about it, but he was publicized by this guy. I'm really damned, who would have thought that such a big thing would happen when the matter reached the ears of the mountain chief, and Brother Zi'an was actually expelled from the mountain chief gate wall because of this matter, I really can't redeem it. Brother Zi'an, how do you say I can make up for it? When a cow is a horse, it is also a matter of kowtowing to you to make amends, in short, I will agree to whatever you say. It's all my fault. Zhao Changlin cried with a sad face, his attitude was extremely sincere, and his self-blame was overflowing.

Fang Zi'an sighed and walked to Zhao Changlin's side, bent down and stretched out his hand to help him up, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Changlin, why do you blame yourself so much? It's just a trifle. ”

"A trifle? I caused you to be expelled from the sect by the mountain chief, which caused great damage to your reputation, and even ...... It can even affect your future. Zhao Changlin said loudly.

Fang Zi'an smiled: "It's not as serious as you think, you don't have to blame yourself too much." It's happened, and you're doing it by accident. That Huang Wannian is the one who spreads. This guy is not on good terms with me, so naturally he wants to spread rumors. Actually, what really surprised me was that my husband really believed those rumors and thought that I was misbehaving and was messing with the girl in the Qinglou. That's what surprised me. I'm afraid you didn't expect it to come to this. ”
