Chapter 541: Chongzhen "Released from Prison"

Hearing that Emperor Chongzhen was going to the starting point city for a private visit, Wang Chengen was in a big rage, grabbed the ground with his head, cried bitterly, and tried every means to dissuade Chongzhen from doing stupid things. But how could Chongzhen's will be changed by a eunuch leader?

The princess's special car will leave the palace every three or five times, and no one dares to search, so this Q7 drove out of the Forbidden City smoothly, out of Zhengyangmen, and onto Zhengyangmen Street.

Since ascending the throne and becoming emperor, this is the first time Chongzhen has left the palace, Chongzhen, who has been under house arrest for eleven years, is in a good mood, feeling that the air he breathes is free, looking at the street scene of Jingshi outside the car window, no matter what person or thing makes him feel fresh.

"It's been eleven years!" Chongzhen, who had changed into a royal blue satin robe worn by ordinary people, sighed and smiled: "The change in Jingshi is still quite big. ”

The buildings in Jingshi City have not changed much, and the changes that Chongzhen refers to are mainly brought about by the starting point city. Due to the opening of the glass factory, the price of glass has fallen, and many merchants and some wealthy families have used glass windows.

There are also some changes in the clothing of pedestrians on the street, and the low price of modern fabrics makes the clothing colors of people in the city also a lot more beautiful, and occasionally you can see one or two clothing styles of the starting city, among which the children's clothing styles have changed the most.

Now the Royal Toy Store is no longer just selling toys, since this spring has been on the market children's clothing, Wang Yue only provided a dozen children's clothing albums, which makes the tailors of the Ming Dynasty burst of inspiration, of course, the basis of their inspiration is still from a variety of modern fabrics.

Children's clothes are festive, beautiful, and not so many stereotypical traditions, so the style of the starting point city is easier for the people of Daming to accept, due to the hot sales of children's clothing, the turnover of the royal toy store is also rising.

Seeing his father, Emperor Long Yan Dayue, Kun Xinggongzi, who was sitting in the back seat with Chongzhen, pouted and said: "Hmph, although Jingshi is known as the first good place, there are piles of garbage everywhere, and no one cleans up the cow and horse dung on the street. ”

Wang Chengen, who was sitting in the front row, was worried that Chongzhen would be unhappy, so he explained: "Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't know something, there are many places for the imperial court to call for silver, and it is powerless to clean up the ditches in the city. Then he pointed out the car window and said, "This Zhengyangmen Street is very clean!" ”

Zhengyangmen Street is the main road extending from the central axis of the Forbidden City, so the daily maintenance is still very careful, after all, it is the face of Jingshi.

When Chongzhen was the king of letters, he was still familiar with Jingshi, and from his point of view, Jingshi was originally like this.

Modern vehicles are not very uncommon in Beijing, in addition to the royal and British mansions, there are often cars into the city at the starting point, mainly to transport goods, so the car of Chongzhen and his party did not cause strong onlookers, but due to the scarcity of this kind of car, the return rate is still considerable.

Q7 turn right onto the bustling Zhushikou Street, Mule Market Street, Caishi Street, and finally take Guangningmen Street out of Guangningmen Gate (changed to Guang'anmen during the Qing Daoguang period), and go to Guangningmenwai Street.

This street was originally only the starting point of the official road outside the city, there was no street name, the starting point city built a road here, set up a bus terminal, and commerce gradually rose, so the section near the Beijing division was named Guangning Menwai Street, and the section near the starting point of the city was named Guangning Road, and set up road signs.

There is a bus square covering a vast area outside Guangning Gate, Guangning Gate Station is a bus hub, which is not only the end point of the starting point from the city to Jingshi, but also the starting point of the bus around the city, and the highway of the outer ring of Jingshi was completed last year.

As soon as you get out of Guangning Gate, the scene is very different from that in Jingshi, after all, dozens of buses stop there, in the eyes of the Ming people, it is still quite spectacular, so Chongzhen is no exception.

"This, this is the bus?" Chongzhen's eyes widened as he looked at the huge bus lanes.

Princess Kunxing smiled and said, "Yes, father, my sons used to sit there a lot." ”

"Stop, I want to see!"

Looking at the rather lively Guangningmen Station, Wang Chengen sweated and said: "The emperor can't, can't!" ”

"Huh?" Chongzhen glared at him and said, "Do I still have to be bound by you when I leave the palace?" ”

This is a little ambiguous, Wang Chengen's face turned white with fright: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave doesn't dare, stop, stop." ”

Stepping on the asphalt road with both feet, Chongzhen also stomped the road with his feet, and then looked at the road that extended into the distance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, not to mention the streets in the city, even the roads in the palace are not so smooth.

That's right, the roads built in the starting point are now paved with asphalt, which gives the waste from the Tianjin refinery a place to go. Not only are asphalt roads more durable than concrete roads, they are also easier to repair, and construction progress is faster than concrete roads. Moreover, the asphalt road also puts an end to the behavior of those ignorant villagers drying rice, which dries rice on the road, smells of asphalt, and the grain may sink into the road when the car is pressed.

"Giggles, Father...... Ah, Daddy, I'm not wrong, those streets in Jingshi can't compare with this street, right? "You see that every time you go to the starting point of the city, Princess Kunxing is very happy, and the clean environment makes people feel bright.

Chongzhen didn't speak, and nodded silently.

"Look, it's a street lamp, and it's all on at night."

"This is a drainage ditch, originally this cover was made of iron, but later because of the serious loss, it was replaced with cement."

Princess Kunxing regarded Chongzhen as Grandma Liu who entered the Grand View Garden for the first time, and kept introducing it.

Chongzhen walked towards the bus stop, Princess Kunxing also followed, Wang Chengen hurriedly glanced at Li Zhong of Qianhu, and several royal guards in civilian clothes immediately dispersed, faintly protecting Chongzhen and Princess Kunxing.

"This bus can be taken with a penny silver dollar coupon, and it is very convenient for the people of Jingshi to go out, but unfortunately there is no bus in Jingshi City." See Chongzhen's interest in buses. Princess Kunxing continued to act as a commentator.

Chongzhen is not only interested in buses, he is interested in many facilities.

This bus stop has vehicles sent to three directions, namely the left ring and the right ring and the starting point city direction, and there is a company of Tiance Army garrison in the parking plaza to protect the vehicles in the station.

Because it is a hub station, there are many people getting on and off the bus, and there will be a bus every ten minutes.

Wang Chengen vigilantly observed all the pedestrians approaching Chongzhen, and anyone became a potential danger in his eyes, so several bodyguards brutally pushed passers-by to clear the way for Chongzhen.

"Jean, let's let, don't you have eyes?"

Chongzhen frowned and said to Wang Chengen: "Companion, you have to let me ...... Yes! Let me be the target of public criticism? Afraid that other people's eyes won't pay attention to me? ”
