Mo Lin called to Qinglong who was standing at the door, "Qinglong, bring the silver needle." Qinglong heard the general's call, hurriedly walked into the house, took out the silver needle in his arms, tore open the bag of food packaging, and tested it with the silver needle in turn, seeing that the silver needle did not change color, he nodded to the general, Mo Lin waved his hand, and Qinglong retreated again.

"Father, I saw that the child on the street bought it and tore open the package and ate it, why didn't you let me eat it on the way, and now I got it back, and I have to ask Qinglong to take the needle and poke it at me one by one, you see, my rock sugar gourd has poked many holes." Mo Xingyao saw that all the food that Qinglong gave him was probed with a silver needle, and poked all the food he ate into holes, and said with some reluctance, why is it so difficult for him to eat?

Ye Wanqiu heard Mo Xingyao say this, and hurriedly persuaded, "Yao'er, this is a bit of unclean food, my father asked Qinglong to help you test it, because I am afraid that you will eat unclean things and have diarrhea, last time you secretly drank mare's milk stored for a day, did you have diarrhea several times the next day!" ”

"Oh, I see, it seems that I am wrong to blame my father, my father is thinking about me, mother, you eat this rock sugar gourd, Qinglong said it was delicious." Mo Xingyao heard his mother explain to him like this, so he nodded, picked up the rock sugar gourd, and handed it to Ye Wanqiu, Ye Wanqiu smiled and shook his head, "If my mother doesn't eat it, Yao'er can eat it quickly if she likes it." ”

Mo Xingyao pretended to hand it to Mo Lin, Mo Lin waved his hand, Mo Xingyao put it in his mouth, and took a bite of the whole, sure enough, as Qinglong said, sweet and sour, really delicious, Mo Xingyao finished eating the rock sugar gourd, and ate steamed dumplings, Poria cakes, and drank sour plum soup, and after tasting all of these, he burped, touched his round little belly and said, "Mother, I don't have to eat dinner, it's so delicious, next time you have to ask Xiao Xiazi to make these delicious dishes for me." ”

Ye Wanqiu nodded dotingly, and promised again and again, "Okay, Yao'er, ask Xiao Xiazi to cook for you whatever you want to eat in the future, but you can't eat too much of this snack, if you eat too much, you can't eat the main meal, and this snack can only be eaten occasionally." Mo Xingyao could only nod when he heard his mother say this, anyway, he was already full today, and his mother could say whatever he wanted.

"Yao'er, you're full, when you're full, tell your mother what mistakes you made today." Mo Lin sat on the solid wood chair, looking at Mo Xingyao, waiting for him to tell the whole story of the matter one by one, Ye Wanqiu looked at Mo Lin and Mo Xingyao questioningly, see the two of them, you look at me, I look at you, what kind of medicine is sold in the two gourds of father and son?

"Yao'er, what's wrong? You honestly tell your mother that if you make any mistakes today, your father will not punish you anymore if you confess it. When Mo Lin heard Ye Wanqiu say this, his eyes immediately widened, Ye Wanqiu looked at Mo Lin with wide eyes, and smiled secretly, he said this first, and the general would not punish Yao'er later.

"Really?" Mo Xingyao heard his mother say this, and looked at Mo Lin again, Mo Lin nodded helplessly, Mo Xingyao saw his father nodded, and quickly confessed, "Mother, today the emperor asked me to compete with the Turkic child, I thought that I haven't practiced archery yet, and I will definitely lose the face of the emperor and my father in archery, so I asked the princess to tell a little lie for me, saying that my hand was burned, but fortunately, the emperor believed it, so he didn't send me to compete." Mo Xingyao's voice became quieter as he spoke, he looked up at his father, saw that his father was expressionless, and turned his head to look at Ye Wanqiu.

As soon as Ye Wanqiu heard Mo Xingyao's words, he didn't know what to say for a while, it stands to reason that children can't lie since they were young, but Mo Xingyao is also excusable for lying this time, if he really lets Yao'er go to the archery competition, it will really lose the face of the entire Tang Dynasty, and telling a small lie can avoid this matter, it's not impossible, Ye Wanqiu looked at Mo Lin, saw the general's calm appearance, choked for a while, and didn't know what to say.

Mo Xingyao saw that his mother listened to him and stopped talking, thinking that he was really wrong about lying, he couldn't help but lower his head, not daring to look at his father and mother, his father might call Qinglong to bring a warning ruler later, and hit him in the palm because of his lie, Mo Lin saw Mo Xingyao who lowered his head, saw his little hands stirred together, and didn't dare to move, thinking that he would spare him this time, after all, the final outcome was still good, thinking about it, he got up and said, "Let's have dinner, After dinner, get an early rest. ”

Ye Wanqiu saw the general say this, knowing that he didn't plan to pursue Yao'er's matter, she hurriedly called Yan'er and asked Yan'er to go to the back kitchen to inform her to bring in the prepared dinner, Mo Xingyao didn't use much for dinner because she ate a lot of snacks, and she fell asleep after playing for a while, Ye Wanqiu and Mo Lin finished their dinner, it was dark, Ye Wanqiu waited for the general to change her underwear, she lay in Mo Lin's arms, and after chatting about some family things, Ye Wanqiu couldn't help but ask, "General, how can you spare Yao'er today, If you put it back in the past, you would definitely have to teach him a lesson. ”

Mo Lin pondered for a long time before replying, "I teach him on weekdays, because he is the only male heir of General Mo's mansion, he is not only himself, but also a major general after the Tang Dynasty, in the future, the Turks and the Tang Dynasty will really fight, when I am old and can't go to the battlefield, he must go to the battlefield as a young general, when the time comes, archery is not good, there is only a dead end to the battlefield, you are now relying on him, accustomed to him, it will harm him in the future, Wanqiu, have you thought about this problem carefully?" Mo Lin knows that the battlefield is the most cruel, if he doesn't learn all these necessary skills on weekdays, he will really lead troops to fight in the future, not only himself, but also thousands of soldiers, at worst, it will also harm the Tang Dynasty and the entire general's mansion.

"General, you rarely say these words to me on weekdays, can't Yao'er be an ordinary child, do you have to go to the battlefield to fight? Can't he grow up healthy and safe like an ordinary child?" Ye Wanqiu heard Mo Lin's words, and remembered that Yao'er really wanted to go to the battlefield in the future, the sword had no eyes, she closed her eyes and didn't dare to think, she only hoped that Yao'er could grow up healthy and happy in peace, couldn't such a small wish come true?

"Wanqiu, Yao'er can grow up peacefully, as long as he trains diligently, won't I also go to the battlefield the same, won't I be fine? Yao'er was born in the General's Mansion, this is his life! The son inherits the father's business, which child of the general's mansion can not go to the battlefield?" Mo Lin clenched Ye Wanqiu's hands, as if to give her strength, Ye Wanqiu knew that he didn't want to accept this fact, the general was right, since the moment Yao'er was born, his fate was decided, or not, from tomorrow onwards, he has to supervise Yao'er's archery homework well, and he can't be so used to him anymore, arbitrarily lazy, just like the general said, get used to him for a day, and harm him for a day in the future.

"General, I know, in fact, I have been escaping this reality, from tomorrow, if the general is not in the general's mansion, I will replace the general to supervise him, general, you are all scars of swords, you have been on the battlefield before, which time is not a new injury to add to the old injury, so I have to supervise Yao'er, if Yao'er is a skill, at least he can suffer fewer injuries." Ye Wanqiu also clenched Mo Lin's hands, the two of them seemed to be giving each other strength, they all looked at the sleeping Mo Xingyao, tomorrow will be a new day for him.

The Turkic Khan led Feng Xu and Feng Luan to walk on the bustling Chang'an Street, and there were special translators around him to introduce them to the prosperous Chang'an City, the total area of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was 84 square kilometers, and the ancient Roman city was only one-fifth of Chang'an.

Thousands of houses are like a game of Go, and the 12th street is like a vegetable garden, Bai Juyi's poems vividly and vividly depict the architectural style of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty at that time.

The ruler divided Chang'an City into 108 rectangles, called 108 squares, which is the famous chessboard pattern, and the layout of this square is like a square-like residential community.

Each square in Chang'an City is a standard rectangle, as neat as a tofu block, without edges and corners, and such regularity and precision seem to be incredible to this day.

In the arrangement of the lanes, with Suzaku Street as the central axis, the left and right sides are also very symmetrical, the east and west of the street, the location of the streets and their shapes, and the size of the area are all symmetrical to each other, and the left and right are symmetrical.

Suzaku Street divides Chang'an City into two halves, and Dongshi Commercial Street mainly sells luxury goods such as fine porcelain, fine silk, Japanese agate, Sri Lankan pearls, and so on.

The commercial street of Xishi mainly sells the Tang costumes worn by the people of the Tang Dynasty, the Hu clothes worn by the Hu people from outside, candles, medicines and other daily necessities.

There are 220 industries in Chang'an City, and the singers, dancers, operas, acrobatics and other masters gathered, and they are accompanied by Hu Shang Hu Ji who opened a restaurant and wine shop in Chang'an, and a song house and dance pavilion.

Many of the Hu people who came to China were responsible for the round-trip expenses and accommodation of the Tang Dynasty, which shows how strong the economic capacity of the Tang Dynasty was at that time.

Beauty and wine coexist here, and they soon became a novel and beautiful landscape in the cultural vision of the Tang Dynasty.

In contrast to secular life is the large number of monasteries in Chang'an City, with more than 100 famous monasteries in the city alone.
