Pei Min and Zhang Xu left Xie County together, went south from the Fengling Ferry, crossed Tongguan into Guanzhong, and went east along the official road. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info pedestrians from all walks of life go back and forth to Chang'an, and at a glance, they can't see the edge.

This way to the south, Pei Min took more trails to practice riding, and when there were no trails to walk, he also walked a lot of official roads. Compared with the two nowadays, the gap between the two cannot be justified at all.

For Chang'an, which is close at hand, I am looking forward to it more and more.

Zhang Xu was riding a mule beside him, at this moment he was like the original drunkard, wearing a purple robe, a flat-headed sample, a sword hanging from his waist, and a blue windbreaker. looks radiant, full of wine at the first meeting of Xie County, and the black hair with ink has already changed as if it had been reborn, and has become a personable Confucian scholar.

A few days ago, after Zhang Xu finished washing, after changing into this outfit, Pei Min almost couldn't recognize him.

Seeing Pei Min's expression, Zhang Xu smiled knowingly and said, "When I first walked on this official road to Chang'an, my mood was the same as Brother Pei's now. Thinking about how majestic and prosperous Chang'an is, I fantasize about what it looks like. As a person who has come over, I would like to advise Brother Pei here, don't think nonsense. No matter how much you think about it, Chang'an will always be more majestic and prosperous than you imagined. ”

Pei Min was a little unconvinced, he had the insight of the 21st century, how could Chang'an be majestic and surpass his understanding? However, Zhang Xu's words filled his heart with yearning for Chang'an, and he couldn't help but raise his whip.

Receiving instructions from his master, the little chestnut fur took a step forward and quickened his pace. Just a few steps, he left Zhang Xu behind.

Zhang Xu was so anxious that he shouted: "Brother Pei, wait for me, my mule can't outrun your horse......"

Facts have proved that Zhang Xu is right, even if Pei Min has seen the towering Oriental Pearl Tower, the magnificence of the Three Gorges Dam, and the magic of the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge, it is inferior compared with the Chang'an City in front of him.

Pei Min, who walked into Chang'an City, was like a frog at the bottom of a well, jumping onto the mouth of the well for the first time, making it how high the sky was and how thick the ground was.

The checkerboard-like streets are wide and straight, and the left and right streets are arranged in a north-south and east-west direction, perpendicular to each other, straight and upright, wide and open-minded. At this moment, the population of Chang'an City has exceeded one million, and at least a few yellow-haired and blue-eyed Hu people can be seen on the street. Especially in the surrounding wine shops, all kinds of coquettish Hu Niang wear revealing clothes, and enthusiastically solicit customers outside the store, which is more open than the brothels in Jicheng, which attracts the attention of passers-by, and many men who are seductive can't help but go to the store.

Pei Min admired the most is that the engineers who designed Chang'an designed the drainage system and greening of each street, there are drainage ditches on both sides of every street in the city, and there are also planted with acacia elm around it.

In this era before industrial chemical pollution, they pay so much attention to environmental greening, which is enough to shame future generations.

Walking on the streets of Chang'an, Pei Min sincerely realized the greatness of the ancients. With such a great country and such a great country, how can it be detrimental to the top of the world and enjoy the congratulations of the Quartet?

Pei Min suddenly became a little enthusiastic, thinking that if he could use his own strength to make the Tang Dynasty stronger, no longer plagued by Tibet, no more Turkic attacks, no more defeat of Talas, and even no more Anshi Rebellion, let the Tang Dynasty continue for a hundred more years, it would not be in vain for him to come to this world.

Pei Min looked left and right dizzyingly, Zhang Xu led the way but walked very fast, and unconsciously arrived at the long street where He Zhizhang was located in the west of the city.

Zhang Xu, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped and looked at the front strangely.

Pei Min looked forward, but saw that there was a lot of young scribes in front of him, holding scrolls and manuscripts, lined up to hand them over to a housekeeper-like figure.

Zhang Xu thought about it, turned around and left.

Pei Min didn't know why, and was waiting to be asked.

Behind them, a small group of people came over, the leader was a middle-aged official, he saw Zhang Xu turn over and dismount, trotted to Zhang Xu's mule, stretched out his hand to grab the reins, and said: "Where to go, Brother Zhang, that is, to come to my house, how can there be a reason to let you go." Let's go, go home with me, and we'll drink another three hundred *** to get drunk. ”

Saying that, he pulled the reins, and without waiting for Zhang Xu to refuse, he turned around again.

Pei Min looked at the middle-aged official, there was no doubt that he should be He Zhizhang. For He Zhizhang, Pei Min can be regarded as a long-known name, and his favorite poet Du Fu has a poem called "The Song of the Eight Immortals in Drinking". It is said that there are eight alcoholics in Chang'an City, who were known as the Eight Immortals in Wine at that time, among which He Zhizhang ranked first, and Zhang Xu, who had just befriended him, was also one of the immortals.

He Zhizhang is tall and thin, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but there are slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, the beard on his left and right lips is upturned, his chin and beard hang down like a willow and grow to his chest, and he is dressed in a neat official uniform, which looks particularly energetic.

Pei Min dismounted and said, "Pei Min, who was born in the late life, has seen Dr. He!" "In the Tang Dynasty, it was not actually popular to call officials adults, and there was only one place where adults were really used, the father, and calling the adults indiscriminately had the feeling of recognizing the father. The usual surname of an ordinary official plus his official position, or the honorific title of a certain duke, such as Wang Xizhi, is often called Wang Youjun by people in the world.

Pei Min didn't know that He Zhizhang had been promoted to Wailang, he only thought that he was still Dr. Taichang in Zhang Xu's mouth, so he called him Dr. He.

He Zhizhang was stunned, looked at him twice, and said with a smile: "Come back to the house with me." ”

A group of students outside the house who were sending poems to Zhang Xu were stunned when they saw He Zhizhang actually walking for Zhang Xu, and they all got out of the way, and respectfully said: "He Gong." ”

He Zhizhang returned the salute one by one, but he didn't make much contact.

Entering the hall, He Zhizhang laughed and said, "The drinking friend is here, how can he be without wine." Come on, hurry up and make soju, I want to drink three hundred cups with Brother Zhang and his newfound little brother. ”

Zhang Xu said unexpectedly: "If you are not busy drinking, Brother He, how do you look at my words?" As he spoke, he took out his masterpiece and handed it to He Zhizhang.

He Zhizhang took it cautiously, opened the notebook, and looked at the majestic "Praise of the King of Qin", he was stunned on the spot, his eyes were shocked, and he saw it at a glance, just more than 20 words, he read it back and forth more than ten times, and sighed: "Brother Zhang Xian's pen is like a god, and he is convinced of his brother, and he is ashamed." He paused and said, "Brother Xian, why don't you give this note to your brother for your brother's love?" ”

Zhang Xu laughed smugly: "Brother, it's late, it's good to give it to your confidant, I have already decided to give this "Praise of King Qin" to Brother Pei, but I just specially brought it to my brother to take a look...... Haha......"
