The Young Prince Chapter 8 Out of the Palace
Liu Rong studied with Jia Yi for several years, and in the past few years, Liu Rong finally learned to write bamboo characters well. However, Liu Rong's heart was very broken, "I hate bamboo slips!" Liu Rong has thought about this more than once......
Liu Rong's physical fitness has also been greatly improved under the training of Liu Qi's guards.
During this period, I also seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally inquired about some news about Wang Huan.
Wang Wan had already given birth to a daughter at this time, which should be the princess of Pingyang who married Wei Qing for the third time and finally married.
Liu Rongxin said: Although history has begun to change because of himself, and the current Wang Wan has not threatened him, who knows what will happen in the future?
Maybe this Wang Wan will find more trouble for herself in the future, so Liu Rong wants to know more about this woman now, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other, and not being defeated in a hundred battles is not unreasonable.
On this day, Jia Yi was explaining the tax policy of the Han Dynasty to Liu Rong.
"Since the end of the Qin Dynasty, the people have suffered from conquest, and after His Majesty Emperor Gao pacified the world, he rested with the people, and implemented the policy of fifteen taxes and one tax.
Since His Majesty ascended the throne today, more attention has been paid to the livelihood of the people, and the thirty taxes have been implemented throughout the country, and the land rent has been exempted.
Judging from Jia Yi's words, he still admires his imperial grandfather very much, but the irony is that Jia Yi has not been reused by the emperor he worships throughout his life.
"Sir, you explain to me how the people are doing now, and I don't see them, how do I know?
Why don't you take me out of the palace, seeing is believing, how about it? Liu Rong has been in the Han Dynasty for several years, but he has never left the palace since he was born, and of course he also wants to go out to see, so he followed Jia Yi's words.
Jia Yi is also very helpless about this student, and always has some strange ideas, telling him about the tax system himself, but he wants to take him out of the palace by himself.
"Oh? His Royal Highness wants to go out of the palace and see is believing, even if I follow it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not allow it," Jia Yi looked at Liu Rong and said.
"As long as my father agrees?" Liu Rong smiled evilly, Jia Yi looked at Liu Rong's smile, and had a bad premonition in his heart.
A few days later, the crown prince Liu Qi went to Li Ji's place for dinner, and finally let Liu Rong meet him.
"Son Liu Rong visits his father", "It's Rong'er, come to dine with Lone", Liu Qi still likes this smart and clever son very much, Liu Rong's learning results, Jia Yi will also reflect to Liu Qi from time to time, Liu Qi is naturally very happy.
"Child, child...... There was one thing that I asked my father to agree to. Liu Rong leaked an embarrassed expression.
"Oh? What's the matter, it's okay to say it directly", Liu Qi saw his son like this for the first time, and he was also a little curious.
"The son heard that Mr. said that the emperor's grandfather Shi Renzheng made the people eat and recuperate, and everyone said that the emperor's grandfather was the holy son of heaven, so he wanted to go out of the palace with Mr. and go outside Chang'an City to see how the people's livelihood was, and ask his father for permission."
"Is this what you mean, or is it that Jia Yi?" , Prince Liu Qi asked.
"This is not the meaning of Mr., it is the ambition of a child, the child wants to see the great rivers and mountains of my Han family, as the saying goes, it is better to read ten thousand books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, and ask his father to answer" Liu Rong replied on his knees.
"How come Lone has never heard of this," Prince Liu Qi thought to himself. Of course, Liu Qi could not have heard of this sentence, because this was Liu Rong's plagiarism of the words of future generations.
"Lone is allowed, you and Jia Yi will go out of the palace together, but you must promise a few things to Lonely", "Please ask your father to command, and the child must obey".
"One, you can't go far, only in the land of Sanfu, and the period is not more than five days.
Second, conceal his identity, and send a team of guards to look left and right and act as guards. ”
"Thank you, father!" Liu Rong was overjoyed, it seemed that his father was still very good to him, and he sent someone to protect him.
The crown prince Liu left after dinner, and Li Ji said, "Rong'er, how can you have such an idea, you want to leave the palace, what if there is danger", Li Ji hugged Liu Rong and said worriedly.
"Mother rest assured, there are people sent by my father to act as guards, just travel around Chang'an, and it will be fine."
On the second day, the crown prince summoned Jia Yi and told Jia Yi that he must take care of his son after leaving the palace, and told Jia Yi of his requirements.
After hearing this, Jia Yi was also surprised that the prince actually agreed, which was completely beyond his expectations.
In this way, early the next morning, Liu Rong and Jia Yi secretly left the palace after dressing up. And the leader of the guards sent by Liu Qi this time was Tang Wu, who had previously taught Liu Rong archery.
Liu Rong, who had been in the palace for several years, stepped out of the palace gate for the first time.
"I don't know why, when I came out of the palace, I felt a sense ......of relaxation," Liu Rong said.
After the two traveled, they were not in a hurry to get out of the city, but decided to travel in Chang'an City first.
Although Liu Rong has always lived in Chang'an City, he has never left the palace, so he is still very excited.
The two of them wandered around the bazaars in Chang'an, which were very different from those of later generations, with strict rules on location and time, and a 'mayor' to manage the bazaar.
However, at this time, Liu Rong looked at the teacher Jia Yi next to him and was also helpless, thinking: After more than 2,000 years, why do I still go shopping with a man......
In this way, the two men walked around the market for most of the day.
In the evening, Jia Yi said to Liu Rong: Your Highness, are you hungry, can you go to the wine house to eat?"
Because the people of the Han Dynasty did not eat lunch except for the nobles, Liu Rong was already hungry.
So after listening to Jia Yi's words, Liu Rong of course agreed very much.
When the two arrived at a wine house, they asked for some food. In the Han Dynasty, the way of cooking was still relatively simple, nothing more than steaming, boiling, roasting, and the way of eating was different from that of modern times, which was a separate meal system.
Just as the two of them were about to leave after eating, there was a quarrel in the wine house, and only one person was heard: I eat here, why don't I have any wine? Bring the wine! I will not give up without wine"!
As soon as these words came out, the store's face turned green for a while, "How can the guest officer not know how to have no wine, and hope for the guest officer Haihan."
"Sir, do you know who this is?" "Your Highness, you don't know who he is?" Jia Yi said mysteriously.
"If I knew who he was, how could I ask my husband?"
Jia Yi looked at Liu Rong, who was at a loss, and said with a smile, "Your Highness really doesn't know that this person is a relative of Your Highness."
"My dear?" , "This person is Chen Xu, the son of the eldest princess, and of course the relatives of His Royal Highness."
"This is still really my relative, and he is still my cousin," Liu Rong said.
"As the son of the eldest princess, how could he not know about the prohibition of alcohol, how could he be like this."
In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a strict prohibition of alcohol, because wine is made from grain, and winemaking is a waste of food, so if there is no major celebration, people are not allowed to drink alcohol at will.
"Your Royal Highness doesn't know that the eldest princess, this son, acts recklessly all day long, he does this, his intention must be to seize this wanton, the owner of the wine house knows his identity, and only recognizes it."
Liu Rong was very angry at this time, so he summoned the guards sent by Liu Qi, took out the talisman given by Liu Qi when he left the palace, handed it to the guards, and said, "You take this order, go to the Tangyi Marquis's Mansion, and inform the eldest princess of this matter."
"Why didn't Your Highness stop him yourself?".
"He is the son of his aunt, or let the imperial aunt teach himself." After speaking, Liu Rong and Jia Yi walked out of the wine house together.
Liu Rong's move surprised Jia Yi, Liu Rong knew how to live in the world at such a young age.
