At the end of Suzaku Street in Chang'an City, there is a different building, which is slightly different from the residential houses in the city.

This is the location of the Anyuan Pavilion set up by the imperial court. The so-called Anyuan Pavilion is a place dedicated to the placement of foreign visitors or envoys. There are special guards at the entrance to patrol.

And a team of more than 20 people led by the Xiongnu envoy Yeli Hu lived here.

Early this morning, Yelihu finally waited for the notice sent by Guanglu Temple to hold a court meeting three days later, and then he would meet him.

During this time, Yeli Hu's heart was sulking. It has been nearly half a month since he came to Chang'an, and apart from giving him good food and drink, he has never seen a single Han court official.

Later, he learned the reason through a secret channel. It turned out that the reason was that today's attitude towards the Xiongnu had been unclear, and the courtiers had their own opinions, and they couldn't come up with a practical charter for a while.

This made his confidence swell again, and he was secretly smug in his heart.

"Humph! After all, this world has to speak with strength. For hundreds of years, the people of the Central Plains have been mostly subservient to the grasslands, can you be any different as an emperor? ”

When he said this, he was also walking out of the gate of Anyuan Pavilion. He was followed by a group of guards brought by the grassland, of course, the little prince Yu Dan was also mixed in, but he was wearing ordinary clothes, and outsiders naturally would not know his identity.

Originally, Lihu was in a very good mood today, and he couldn't stand Yu Dan's pleading, so he agreed to take them out to appreciate the prosperity of Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty.

Yelihu came to Chang'an once many years ago, and that was when Emperor Jing was there. Because the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms" caused by the cutting of feudal domains has just been pacified, the national strength is in a great loss of vitality, and the market seems to be very depressed.

But even so, the majesty of Chang'an City left a deep impression on him.

This revisit to the old place, what I saw and heard in my eyes and ears was very different from my impression.

But I saw that Chang'an City was bustling, with many shops, noisy life, and all kinds of goods were full of it. Not only are merchants from the north and south gathered, but occasionally you can see the traces of the Hu people in the Western Regions.

Ye Lihu couldn't help but sigh secretly, although this person has always been arrogant, but he still has a heart and vision. Thinking of the bitter cold of the grassland in the north, and comparing it with the prosperous land of Chang'an, I can't help but feel a little discouraged.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard someone whispering hatred in my ear: "The people of the Central Plains are greedy and lazy, but they are sitting on such prosperity, and God is really unfair." Hum! ”

He didn't have to look back, he knew that he had said this from the pole behind him.

Although Yelihu knew that what he said was wrong, he also echoed two sentences. The detached rod said: "The wealth of the world is based on the powerful!" Our grassland warriors are invincible in the world, and the people of the Central Plains should fulfill the terms they promised, but they have always been unfavorable in the past two years. ”

The rest of the people naturally echoed the voice.

Yelihu was very impressed with his words. Since the new emperor in the Han court succeeded to the throne, he has indeed become more and more neglectful of the grassland, which has caused Da Shan Yu's dissatisfaction.

This time the rebellion is a good temptation.

It's time to show off the power of the Huns! Whether it is for the interests of the past or the future, we must make good use of this opportunity to explore the bottom line of the Han court against the Xiongnu.

And the attitude of the emperor and the courtiers of the Han court will be clear after the court meeting three days later.

A group of people walked and stopped, and turned a few streets in half a day, although they looked down on the Han people in their hearts, but they loved the goods and objects of the Central Plains very much.

Fortunately, this time there were enough silver belts, and everyone bought a few items they liked. The little prince Yu Dan was especially excited, and everything looked fresh.

While walking, I suddenly heard that the roadside in front of me was very lively. A two-story quaint wooden building stood in front of me, only to see a few newly made wooden signs in front of the building, with some handwriting written on them, and a few people pointed out and discussed here, and then paced into the building.

Yelihu also knew some Chinese characters, but he didn't know what was written on them, and he had never heard of some strange names.

Just as I was wondering, several people smelled a fragrance at the end of their pens. The quality is light and elegant, but mixed with sweet fragrance, I can't help but take a deep breath, which is very comfortable.

I could hear a few people dressed as scribes in cloth robes and scarves talking as they walked inside.

"I heard that several new products have been added in the past two days. I don't know how the product will come?"

"Isn't it clearly written on the wooden board over there! It's just that...... All kinds of varieties have never been heard of. Hehe. ”

"Just smelling it is calming! I think it's really top-grade. ”

"Then Brother Yu and Brother Xu, let's go spend half a day and taste it, how about it?"

"Very good, very good...... Please, please. ”

Yeli Hu and a few people listened to it for a while, but they still didn't understand too much. When they came out, they listened to the persuasion of the attendants of the pavilion, and they all changed into the clothes of the Central Plains civilians, so no one paid attention to them, but it was inconvenient to ask each other, and it was very tempting to smell the aroma.

Yu Dan is naturally even more indispensable. He has been taught by a few Chinese scholars who fled north assigned by Da Shan Yu since he was a child. Driven by curiosity, I looked at the planks for a long time, barely recognizing some words, and guessing in my heart that it seemed to be the name of something, but I didn't know the specifics, and I couldn't help but want to see it.

At this time, the sun is in the middle of the day, the sun is very good, shining on the upper end of the plaque at the door of the building, the wooden plaque is already a little old, the handwriting has been a little blurred, he was sandwiched in a few guards to enter, looked up, recognized the three words on the plaque is "Fan Xue Building".

Yuan Zhao has been very busy these two days! He admits that he is not a very patient person. This character is brought from a past life. "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change", and it is not good to be a traverser!

Of course, this sentence is just a sigh when he laughs at himself. Since I promised to help everyone, I always have to do what I say.

He was afraid that he would lose patience in two days, and he would slack off when he did these things again, and if the effect was not good, he would inevitably disappoint everyone, right?

So in the past two days, he also fought hard. sorted out the things in detail according to his memory, and first commanded the little fat man and the free labor Cui Hong to prepare some utensils.

He planned to take advantage of the existing conditions of the Van Xue Building to push out some of the things he had envisioned some time ago. It's about making new tea and a few small snacks that he can make first.

As for the salt and wine in the future, he had another idea, and the benefits brought by those things were not something that the little Fan Xuelou could digest!

"I still need to build a few relationships...... Yuan Zhao said to himself.

Unexpectedly, the money shopkeeper treated Yuan Zhao's idea as a major event.

In addition to himself and Hou Wu taking care of daily affairs in front, bring Zhao Yuan, Song Jiu and Ma Qi to the backyard, let them do nothing, and help Yuan Zhao do things in this paragraph!

With manpower, everything is up quickly. Song Jiu was responsible for going in and out to buy some of the things Yuan Zhao needed, but Ma Qi himself was a carpenter and could build some simple wooden tools.

Yuan Zhao was happy, which saved him a lot of effort. It's not because of anything else, it's just that in this era, how can there be those sharp and easy-to-use woodworking tools? Only knives and axes are available, and you can't make the molds you need with these clumsy tools!

And March wields a knife and axe, but he is very skillful. Yuan Zhao explained to him in detail the several wooden frames that needed to be made, as well as the appearance of the coffee table that was modeled after the later generations.

The man was puzzled and then surprised, and then the more he listened, the more his eyes lit up, and his mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it.

Yuan Zhao spoke for a long time, and when he saw that he didn't move, he scratched his head and asked, "That'...... Uncle Ma, do you understand? Can these be made? ”

As if he had woken up from a dream, Ma Qi slapped him on the shoulder, and slapped Yuan Zhao with a bared tooth.

"This ...... You came up with all these things, huh? That's great! That's great! Brother Yuan, why didn't anyone think of doing this before! Oops, what a ....... ”

Yuan Zhao pursed his lips secretly, just make a few sets of simple wooden tables to drink tea, cut! What's all the fuss about.

March asked a few more questions about what he didn't understand, and after confirming that it was correct, he refused to talk to him again. As if he couldn't wait for a moment, he hurriedly went to choose the right wood.

This man was very serious about his work, and for the next few days, there was always a ding-dong sound in the backyard, which was because he was working hard.

Yuan Zhao led the little fat man and Cui Hong to fry a batch of tea leaves in the corner of the courtyard using the same method last time.

During that experiment, Yuan Zhao felt that the tea leaves he had made were a little old, and he lacked a notch in his mouth when he drank it. So now he was watching carefully between stir-frying, and when the heat was ready, he would start the pot as soon as it was ready.

Su Lingzhi walked over from the side with a pout, looking unhappy.

"You've got something to do, why don't you need my help! I can do it too. ”

Seeing that her face was not good, the little fat man hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to be busy, he had been bullied by Lingzhi and was afraid, so he didn't dare to provoke her.

Yuan Zhao dried the fried tea leaves with the help of Cui Hong, and perfunctorily said that there was no job suitable for her to do.

Lingzhi didn't give up, and he was messing around with his hands and feet. Yuan Zhao was so helpless by her that he thought about letting her bring the bamboo flute, and taught her a beautiful tune, so that she could practice it well, and then it might be of other use.

When the girl heard him say this, she immediately rejoiced. She lifted the flute carved by the green bamboo, gently swayed her waist, came to the second floor of the corridor of the small building in the west wing, leaned on the wooden railing, according to the palace law, the jade finger was lightly clicked, and the soft flute began to sound in the courtyard.

Even Yuan Zhao had to be convinced, this girl was extremely smart in the way of music and rhythm! After a simple two-pass attempt, the sound is flawless.

Ma Qi stopped what he was doing, and Zhao Yuan, who was leading the horse back, also quietly stopped at the gate of the courtyard to listen. The little fat man clapped his hands lightly and admired Sister Lingzhi in his mouth, with an admiring expression. And Cui Hong, a teenager who heard this soft tone for the first time, was already in a daze.

Cui Hong didn't know what's wrong, at this moment, he actually thought of the distant northern border, the wind-blown little tunzi and those simple villagers with smiles, and his heart was filled with a long-lost warmth.

At the bottom of the west window of the small building, where the roses are blooming. The reddish girl quietly held the flute behind her, she liked the song just now.

Because, the name that Yuan Zhao told her is very good, it is called "The Eternal Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix".
