Chapter 244: Breaking the Iron Shoes
Chapter 244: Breaking the Iron Shoes
Chang'an, which was prosperous in the prosperous era of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, is like a microcosm of heaven on earth, and it is a treasure of nature.
The business travelers who gathered in Chang'an from all over the world were all deeply attracted and lingered, especially the people who came from the desolate and poor areas like the Western Regions, and they were even more shocked to be in the heavens on earth.
Although they have been in Chang'an for more than ten days, Ye Ji and An Luo'er still can't see enough, and their fresh curiosity is still overflowing. If they didn't have to look for their relatives, they would like to play in Chang'an City every day.
Chang'an, with a residential area of 108 squares and a population of millions, is like finding a needle in the sea to find relatives who have been separated for more than ten years. Ye Ji has been visiting for so many days, but she still has no clue.
In her childhood memories, Ye Ji's uncle once went to Broken Leaf Town, and she vaguely remembered that her uncle said that he lived in a workshop in Chang'an, as if he had an Anzi.
When Ye Ji arrived in Chang'an, when he asked, his head was much bigger, Nuo Chang'an City, there were at least six or seven workshops with the word An, Anle, Da'an, Anren, Ande, ....... Ye Ji had no choice but to search according to the map and search one by one, but after walking all over these shops, she didn't get any news about her uncle Qi Jishan.
"This is the last workshop with the word An." Standing in front of the gate of Andingfang, Ye Ji's expression was complicated, with a little hope in her worries, like a gambler who was dabbling in a casino for the first time, holding on to the last chip, hesitating and hesitating.
An Luo'er couldn't bear to see Ye Ji's lost mood, and Wen Yan comforted: "Sister, let's go in and have a look, uncle and they may live here." ”
Andingfang, located in the northwest of Chang'an City, is next to Guanghua Gate, and the house gate of the large official eunuch family is lined up with the Fang Gate, facing Guanghua Street. Like all the shops located in the north of the city, the residents of Andingfang are either high-ranking officials and nobles, or rich businessmen, Ye Ji never thought that her mother's maiden family would be a high-class family, so she has always targeted the ordinary residents in the south of the city, and she did not dare to have too much hope for this large Andingfang.
Today, the people who enter and exit from Andingmen are very surprised, there are several little ladies in Hufu on the cross street in the square, the appearance of the first two little ladies is delicate, and the return rate is 100%, and at a glance you can know which official lady or beautiful wife and concubine should be. But the strange thing is that a person with such an identity should be sitting in a carriage, how can he show his face on the street, and still dress up like this: waist with a scimitar, hair and makeup. The same is true of the maid who is entourage, with a vigilant eye and a very vicious look.
The visit was very tiring, Ye Ji asked several households, but she couldn't get the answer she wanted, and it was another disappointed day.
At this moment, a beautiful carriage appeared at the end of the street, heading towards Ye Ji and the others.
Ye Ji stopped the carriage head-on, and it was an old man who drove the car: "May I ask this Ah Weng, is there a family house surnamed Qi nearby?" ”
The old man glanced at Ye Ji and shook his head blankly.
"Hey, I said, you old man, you shake your head without thinking about it, what do you mean?" Worried that Ye Ji would be hit, An Luoer angrily blamed the coachman.
"Hugh be rude." Ye Ji faintly stopped the impulsive An Luo'er, and then apologized to the old man.
At this moment, the small window of the carriage opened from the inside, and a pleasant voice was heard: "Amber, why do you stop?"
The old man who was called Amber hurriedly replied respectfully: "Back to the princess, it was a group of Hu Niang who blocked the way. ”
Ye Ji was taken aback, it turned out that it was the princess in the car. Although An Luo'er is also the princess of the country of Bakhana, her identity is inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty.
"Oh?" The princess in the carriage seemed to be interested in Hu Niang, and the door opened, and a beautiful and beautiful face appeared in Ye Ji's pupils.
What a beautiful princess!
Ye Ji couldn't help but admire in her heart.
"Humph! Isn't it just a princess? ”
The literati are light, and the beauties are no exception, and the same sex of beauty has been the natural enemy of each other since ancient times, not to mention the collision of two women who are both heavenly women. The young and frivolous An Luo'er couldn't help but exude jealousy, she has always boasted of her beauty, but the princess in the carriage is obviously better than her in appearance, and her identity is still a Tang princess.
Ye Ji smiled slightly at the princess in the carriage and said apologetically: "Ning Yuan Ye Ji is bothered, please don't blame the princess." ”
The beautiful princess also smiled faintly, and a pair of beautiful eyes were looking at Hu Niang in front of her, and Hu Niang's beauty also surprised her.
"Ning Yuan? How close is it to Broken Leaves? Ye Ji didn't expect that this amazingly beautiful princess would be interested in the Western Regions.
"It's not far, Ye Ji originally lived in Broken Leaf Town."
"Oh? That ......" princess seemed to be more interested.
"Princess, Madame will be in a hurry, let's hurry up." An anxious voice came from inside the carriage, interrupting a conversation that was about to develop in depth.
The princess smiled faintly and said apologetically: "It's a pleasure to talk to you, if Ye Ji is interested, you can go to the Pei Mansion in front to find me, Ruo Xi hopes to ask you about the Western Regions." I'm sorry, but I'm sorry for being rude. ”
Ye Ji was a little puzzled, but in the face of the princess's sincerity, it was difficult to refuse, and she was about to accept the invitation, when suddenly a domineering shout sounded behind the princess's carriage.
"Hey, get out of the way!" The voice was somewhat familiar, but it was difficult to tell who it was for a moment.
The dispute did not break out, and the princess seemed to be very low-key, only frowning slightly, then nodded to Ye Ji, and ordered the carriage to move forward.
The carriage following behind slowly galloped in, the curtains on the carriage were ajar, and suddenly an exclamation came out of it: "Huh? Stop, park! ”
Ye Ji and An Luo'er saw it at the same time, and in the window of the carriage that drove behind them, there was a face that was not unfamiliar. An Luo'er's pretty face flushed, snorted, and turned her head.
"An Luo'er, I'm Qi Xuan, do you still recognize me?" A young man with a hippie smile stepped down from the carriage.
"I don't know you, please get out of the way." An Luo'er grimaced, and pressed her hand on the hilt of the knife hanging from her waist.
I don't know if it's because of the thick skin, or if Qi Xuan's ears have an automatic filtering function, anyway, An Luo'er's answer didn't affect his mood at all, he was as enthusiastic as ever: "Guazhou has come thousands of miles here, and the sea of people is vast, if it is not the arrangement of God, how can we meet again?" Being able to see my little lady again is my blessing and our fate. It's better to meet by chance, the cold house is in front of you, why don't you go in and talk about it? ”
Ye Ji and An Luo'er couldn't cry or laugh, there were so many coincidences in the world, and they actually bumped into the door of this Qi Xuan son's house. Following Qi Xuan's point, a horizontal plaque was hung on the door of the mansion in front of him, with two words dancing on it.
There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them. Ye Ji and An Luo'er glanced at each other, and exclaimed in unison: Qi Mansion!
