Chapter 71 Taishan Tai'an
The distance from Xihe County to Mount Tai is more than 1,100 miles between the two, and on this journey of more than 1,000 miles, there are all kinds of people, all kinds of scenery, different cities, different characteristics, different mountains and rivers, and different scenery.
Mount Tai stands in the east of the Tang Dynasty, next to the state and county in the coastal area, and the two places are not far apart, standing on the top of Mount Tai, you can look at the distant coastline.
Mount Tai is in the Tang Dynasty's Tai County, where the humanities and culture are very different from Xihe County, and the unique food here, for Mount Tai pancakes, as well as Mount Tai green tea, and more importantly, Mount Tai tofu, Mount Tai's tofu is a unique must.
A city in the quiet Mount Tai, called Tai'an City, is also the county seat of Tai County. At the gate of the county seat, two men rode horses, followed by four carriages.
The two people on horseback stopped not far from the city gate, raised their heads to look at the city gate, on the wall of the city gate, it said "Tai'an West Gate", after the two looked at each other, they looked at each other and smiled, Yang Liaoxin said with emotion: "It's finally here, it's been a little more than four days, and it's almost exhausting me." ”
"Yes, it can be said that along the way, it is a place to eat and sleep." Li Yan nodded with deep sympathy, and said with emotion: "It's not easy to come out to play." ”
"Don't be emotional, you two, let's hurry up and find a hotel to live in, and then we'll go out shopping, and go to Mount Tai tomorrow, what do you think?" Hearing Tang Shishi, who was emotionally moved by the two in the carriage behind, he immediately said angrily.
"Okay, let's find a hotel to stay in first, and then come out to see if there's anything interesting in this Tai'an county town." Hearing Tang Shishi's words, Li Yan nodded and agreed, but Yang Liaoxin didn't say anything.
Since there is a decision number, everyone has entered the city, and after entering the city, they see the flow of cars and horses and pedestrians on the street, just like a peaceful and prosperous world.
A few people in the city, came to a hotel called Anyue to stay, a group of people, here, chartered a small courtyard, the small courtyard has four wings.
Therefore, Li Yan and Tang Xiu, Yang Liaoxin have a room for three people, and then Tang Shishi and Tang Lan and Luo Yuner have a room for three people, Yang Yanyu, Liu Yiyi and Zhu Yu have one room, and the rest of the room is the subordinate person brought to them, that is, the three coachmen.
Several people were in their respective rooms, and after tidying up, they went out together. However, when leaving the hotel, Li Yan and others asked the hotel owner if there was anything interesting in this Tai'an Chen City, and after learning the result, several people left the hotel.
When they got out of the hotel, they mixed in with the crowd in the street. A few people learned from the innkeeper that there was still a lot of fun in Tai'an, but they found it out for themselves, but the innkeeper still recommended some, such as the Pan River, which was left from Mount Tai, and then ran through the entire county, flowing in from the south of the city, and then flowing out from the north of the city.
And because of this, on both sides of the entire Pan River, dignitaries, businessmen and wealthy people, as long as they have status or money, all settle here, and those who sell fat powder, jewelry, or restaurants, as well as green buildings, etc., are all lined up by this Pan River.
After Li Yan and his entourage left the hotel, they walked along the street for nearly 20 minutes or so, and they saw a river not far from them, and this river was the Pan River that the innkeeper told them.
A few people came to a bridge by the Pan River, a few people stood on the bridge, looked north and south, and found that the whole bank river is clearly layered, in the south of the Pan River, this is the restaurant, entertainment shops are lined up, and in the north of the Pan River, it is mainly the residence of high-ranking officials and nobles, famous families, businessmen and rich people. And Li Yan and others stood on this bridge, which is the dividing line between north and south.
After Li Yan and the others looked at it for a while, they walked along the street towards the northwest of the Pan River.
Walking on the streets, there are countless people eating, drinking and having fun, and it is much more lively here than the place north of the Pan River. In those high-ranking officials, virtuous families, and wealthy merchants, it is much quieter. After all, it's not the place to be on a commercial street.
A few people walked on this street, and when they saw something new and interesting, they would go to see the excitement, or see something they liked, and they bought it.
Li Yan originally planned to invite everyone to eat pancakes, but after asking Tang Shishi, Liu Yiyi and other women, they all shook their heads and said they didn't eat it, Li Yan asked why, they just said lightly: "Eating while walking is not elegant, so I don't eat." ”
In the end, under Li Yang's persuasion, only Tang Shishi ate alone, and the other five people chose not to. Li Yan, Yang Liaoxin, Tang Xiu and Tang Shishi and Tang Shishi are eating and shopping at the same time, although at the beginning, Tang Shishi was very embarrassed, but in the end, there was nothing embarrassing.
And Liu Yiyi and the other five daughters just watched the four of them eat, although they also wanted to eat, but in order to pay attention to the image, they chose to give up, and in the end it was reason that prevailed over desire. After all, the image is more important than everything, although there is no county town here, but it is not good to be seen by outsiders and some talented scholars from a scholarly family. Although it won't be a little less meaty, it feels uncomfortable to point fingers and say something, or just look at you with contempt.
For the rest of the next time, Li Yan and others were wandering around Panhe South Street, looking at different regions, different cultures, different customs, and different foods and snacks.
In this way, Li Yan, Tang Shishi and other nine people were in this Tai'an City, shopping and playing until the evening, and then slowly returned to the Anyue Hotel to rest.
.........
The next morning, at midlight, four carriages were parked at the door of the Anyue Hotel. Li Yan stood and looked at the population and said, "Let's go to make a car separately, but, Tang Xiu, wait a minute, you will give the car to Brother Chen, and the road to wait is not an official road, so Brother Cheng is better." Li Yan said this, looked at Chen Meng and said, "Brother Chen, I may have to work hard for you later." ”
"Well, no problem." Chen Meng heard Li Yan's words and nodded.
"Well, in that case, let's go." Li Yan got into a carriage directly, and the rest of the people also got on the horses one after another. When he saw that the people had finished boarding, the carriage gradually moved in the direction of the city gate.
"Wheels, wheels"
"Driving"
The carriage walked on the mountain road of Mount Tai, and the wind, trees, flowers and plants on both sides of the surrounding area quickly moved backwards.
"The scenery of this Mount Tai is not ordinarily beautiful, compared with the scenery of the mountains around our Xihe County, it is completely different from 108,000 miles." Yang Liaoxin lifted the curtain, looked at the scenery on both sides, and said with emotion.
"Huh." When Li Yan heard Yang Liaoxin's words, he chuckled and said, "You must know that this is a mountain after all, so this is a normal thing, otherwise how can this be a famous mountain." ”
"You're right." When Yang Liaoxin heard Li Yan's words, she just faintly agreed.
And in the following time, everyone didn't say anything all the way, just quietly hurried. About an hour later, after everyone came to the mountainside of Mount Tai, because there was some situation, they had to get out of the car, the reason was that there were steps in front of them, so the rest of the road, the carriage could not go up, and they could only walk with their feet.
After Tang Shishi got out of the carriage, when she saw the steps in front of her, she immediately began to retreat, and said unhappily: "No, the rest walk with their feet, isn't this a whole person?" It's so high, maybe I'm gone, and I haven't even reached the top of the mountain. ”
"Hehe, don't be discouraged, we can go as much as we can, after all, we have to think about you ladies." When Li Yan heard Tang Shishi's words, he came out and said.
"Brother Li Yan is right." Yang Liaoxin also nodded and said, "If it doesn't work, don't force it." ”
"Oh, you're still wasting time here, so you'd better hurry up." Tang Xiu heard their words on the side, and immediately shouted.
When Tang Shishi and the other six girls heard Tang Xiu's words, they all glanced at him and walked towards the steps.
And Tang Xiu felt the gaze of these people, and his scalp suddenly went numb, and then he began to break out in a cold sweat, and then he said "hehe", and laughed dryly.
Li Yan, Yang Liaoxin and Chen Meng, who were on the side, were holding their stomachs and laughing. When Tang Xiu saw this, his face immediately fell, and he rolled his eyes and said angrily: "What's so funny, don't let me see the opportunity next time, otherwise, hehe." ”
Li Yan heard Tang Xiu's words, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Do you know that there is a saying that if you don't do it, you won't die, if you do, you can provoke the tiger, and don't anger the woman, otherwise the end will be very miserable, but don't worry, I won't let you seize the opportunity, so don't think about it." ”
Tang Xiu heard; Li Yan said this, rolled his eyes, and walked towards the steps of the mountain alone. And Li Yan and the others just smiled when they saw this.
Walking on the steps, Chen Meng glanced at the bottom of the mountain and said: "I have always walked around and been to many places, but I haven't enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers like today. ”
Li Yan heard Chen Meng's words and said jokingly: "What? Want to change jobs now? ”
"That's not it, it's just a pity." Chen Meng shook his head and said.
"Sorry? Could it be? When Li Yan heard Chen Meng's words, he thought of something, but he was a little unsure.
"Well, you think that you used to follow the surroundings of the saint and protect the safety of the saint, usually the saint will travel or something, so I have been to many places, but in addition to vigilance and protection, there is nothing else, like this I have no time to appreciate it at all, and apart from this, if I hadn't done this, maybe I would have a family by now." Chen Meng said with emotion.
"Starting a family? Listen to what you mean, what must have happened, right? Let's hear it. When Li Yan heard Chen Meng's words, he immediately aroused his curiosity, after all, the matter of a guard commander is more worthy of curiosity.
