Chapter 89: The Night Forbidden City
Jun Tao arrived late, and the group checked their equipment. Xiao Zhi brought his dragon carving Si Nan, Yanshan brought a small bag, and Luo Gan naturally wanted to put his superpower spirit wine in the bag.
Liu Buwen was dressed in a clean scholar's outfit and a scholar's hat, and riding a horse was no different from going to the exam. Xiao Zhi and Yan Shan were dressed very plainly, and their cotton and linen clothes were covered on their bodies. It's interesting that Rogan also traveled plainly, and he didn't bring any good-looking clothes with him.
Liu Buwen asked Luo Gan: "Why doesn't Brother Luo bring more elegant clothes, this one...... Tsk, it's undignified for you. ”
Luo Gan: "Don't talk about decency or indecency when you go far away, in case you meet a bandit, be the first to pick up my clothes if you look good, or you will all live to kill me." ”
Ash replied with disgust: "The thieves don't rob clothes, they directly rob money, although they are ruined, they are not interested in men's ketosis." ”
Yanshan's eyes were full of admiration: "Brother Zhi is really an expert!" ”
As for Liu Buwen traveling far away with bamboo slips on his back, he didn't say that he wanted to see the world with these, Luo Gan remembered Dong Qichang's sentence "Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles", which should be what he said.
As soon as Jun Tao's carriage arrived, the four horses set off together, and the five horses in the carriage drove side by side, directly occupying the road clean.
As soon as I got out of the city gate, it was said that the auspicious day of the zodiac was suitable for a long journey, but it rained.
Ash: "Brother Aluo, didn't you read the yellow calendar, can you go out today?" ”
Luo Gan patted his thigh and asked Liu Buwen as he was: "Don't smell it, didn't you say that Huang Li is suitable for going out?" ”
Liu Buwen was directly drenched by the rain on the scholar's hat, and everyone was caught off guard, and several people went to the city gate to hide from the rain in embarrassment.
Liu Buwen: "The yellow calendar says that you can go out, but everyone in the world reads this yellow calendar, can there be a place not to be unlucky?" ”
Jun Tao poked her head out of the curtain of the carriage and said jokingly: "It's not bad luck, it's raining outside, and luck will come." ”
"What about going out on a sunny day?" Rogan asked curiously.
"It's sunny when you go out, and the waves are not alarming." Jun Tao smiled.
Luo Gan was surprised by Jun Tao's indifference, "It's good no matter how you say it, it's up to you whether the weather is good or not." ”
"What kind of weather is it, it is people's attitude, calm as water, there is no joy and no sorrow." Liu Buwen smiled.
A conversation made everyone feel a little better.
Perhaps, Zhang Jifeng felt ashamed in his heart, knowing that Luo Gan and the others were far away, so he would not come to guard them. Send someone to send the robes and let them go, even if it is to send away the plague god, don't leave any bad troubles.
On the way to Chang'an, you can take the waterway and land, and those who are in a hurry to do business will go to the waterway Grand Canal, and it will be a few days to go north to Chang'an.
Not far from Chang'an, a group of people are tired of traveling and driving, and the perennial war is uneven.
Along the way, I saw people dressed in jade pendants, and hundreds of people rushed to Chang'an.
Rogan: "It's strange that travelers are dressed so well now?" ”
Juntao: "It doesn't look like an ordinary person, but it's quite particular about dressing, and there are a few servants around me." ”
Liu Buwen saw it in his heart, and said: "Now that the saint is wise, he must rectify the system of electing officials, and the servants of the special officials department will be awarded officials with their talents, and all the talents in the world can go to Shangshu Province to participate in the election, it seems that it is really vigorous!" ”
Ash listened attentively and asked curiously, "Then how to choose?" Than what! ”
Liu Buwen continued: "He is still a person with both ability and political integrity, and many years of war have exhausted the talents of the Tang Dynasty, and now, there are strong enemies outside, there are troubles inside, there are few officials, and the place is in chaos, how can the saint not be in a hurry?" ”
Yanshan's eyes rolled, as if he was thinking about something again, and Rogan noticed it and teased him.
"What's the matter? Are you going to give it a try in Yanshan? Seeing that your brain is quite bright, maybe you can really become an official! ”
"The president is making fun of me again, what can I do these two times?" Yanshan touched his head and smiled sincerely, "But I really think that the president's talent is not only that, if he is an official, will it be better!" ”
Luo Gan was stunned, thinking that he had never taken being an official very seriously, he just wanted to complete the game task. The funny thing is that he has gained a lot of friendship in it, and there is a sense of accomplishment that he has never had for more than 20 years, which makes him feel a sense of belonging to this world.
Looking at Yanshan, Xiaozhi, Liu Buwen and others, Luo Gan is indeed sometimes thinking about what kind of life other contestants will experience? Do you know these people as well as you do, or are you living another life? It's interesting to think about.
"Be an official!" Rogan held his head high, his body swaying with the swing of the horse, "I really didn't think that there would be no such fate. ”
Ash: "Hey! Brother Luo, my brother Chong often says that the prince will have a kind of Xiangning! Who can say for sure about fate, who is born to do something. ”
Luo Gan patted Ash on the shoulder: "Interesting, you all know the allusions of the Daze Township Uprising, and in the future, Ash should be able to become a scholar or thinker." ”
Yanshan: "What thinker?" ”
Rogan pondered for a moment and explained to them: "Thinkers are nothing more than people who have left their names in history by virtue of their ideas that are advanced and ahead of the times." Learn to be rich and five cars, and only eight buckets are high! ”
Ash: "Thoughts? Hey, what's the difference between that and doing wood carving, I can't make money or I'm still disliked. ”
Jun Tao was interested in the men's conversation and asked, "Teacher Luo is running a private school again?" ”
Luo Gan grabbed the reins and turned back to Juntao's side: "How dare you be a good teacher, it's just a simple chat." ”
Jun Tao raised her eyebrows, and looked at Luo Gan ambiguously and meekly: "It's not simple, Mr. Luo can be an expert in talking and becoming a messenger to protect the country." ”
Luo Gan understood that Juntao was teasing herself, probably because she felt that it was a little noisy to talk all the way, which disturbed her rest.
Tile blue sky, dark clouds. The sunset is not warm, so it shines on people, and the mood is comfortable. Already in sight of Chang'an City, the doorman urged people to move faster.
When the group entered the city, they were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them. The main street is very spacious, and it is estimated that there must be one hundred and fifty meters past, and two rows of drainage ditches on both sides of the street appear in front of you.
The sky was no longer so bright, there were no street lights, and the road fell into darkness after a while, and a cavalryman in military uniform patrolled back and forth, and when he saw Rogan and others, he went up to interrogate them.
"Hey! Where did you guys come from? ”
Luo Gan replied: "Anping County, after a few days and nights, I finally arrived in Chang'an. ”
The cavalry looked around at everyone and said, "Hurry up and find a place to stay, there is a night ban when it gets dark, and all those who violate the ban will be severely punished!" ”
After saying that, the imperial horse left, Rogan looked carefully at the cavalry in the distance, and did not react.
Liu Buwen: "Brother Luo, that's Wuhou, there is a night ban in Chang'an City, let's get ready to stay at dusk, otherwise we will be arrested!" ”
Before the words fell, the street drums of dusk sounded, urging people to hurry home.
