Chapter 613 Hangzhou City

Undoubtedly, Li Zhi's all-encompassing move is the best solution for both.

Especially for Li Xian, the perfect way to get rid of him, the current emperor can't be provoked, and the future queen mother is in control of his future.

Li Zhi deliberately mentioned this matter at this time in order to let the successor have a deeper understanding of his own way of acting.

Because from the change in this person's temperament last night, he felt it for the first time, once the imperial power is really in his hands, it is difficult to affect him at close range.

Before Li Xian suffered this blow, the tsundere after taking the throne was as if he stayed in Chang'an City some time ago, weak and cowardly, but his heart was higher than the sky.

On the contrary, his younger brother Li Danqian is famous for his filial piety, and this person's three concessions in history can be called legendary, which will be talked about by future generations.

Both of them ascended the throne twice and experienced hardships, which is also what Li Zhi can't bear in his heart.

With the existence of their fierce mother Wu Meiniang, their lives are destined to be unpeaceful and walking on thin ice.

In the next nearly 20 years, Datang was not only changed to the name of the country once, but also dominated women's rights several times.

However, because of the effective governance of Empress Wu, there was a relatively best period of time in the Tang Dynasty after that.

The division of feudal towns has not yet been formed, the products are abundant, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, the frontier is stable, and the treasures are abundant, which has laid a solid foundation for the prosperous Tang Dynasty after the Kaiyuan Dynasty.

This is the reason why Li Zhi is reluctant to kill the Empress Wu who has repeatedly targeted him, compared to his solid foundation in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty in the future, the merits of the Empress Wu are greater than the chaos in the inner court.

Under the attention of several people, Li Zhi came to the study next to him, and quickly recorded a secret letter to Gaozong, sealed it with hot paint, and handed it over to Li Xian.

The deep conversation between them did not last long, and in the Huaqing Palace, there was the eyeliner of the Empress Wu everywhere, and the secret discussion for too long was bound to cause suspicion.

In the afternoon, the crown prince, the prince and several kings were sent away, and the marriage came to an end.

On the second day, he explained in detail the Feng Xing, who had been with him, and this person also returned to Chang'an City with Jiyuan Daochang, who had a sufficient amount of snuff cream.

After breakfast, Li Zhi personally escorted the VIPs of the Western Regions, and the self-driving tour began.

After passing through Shangluo County and arriving at Longju Village, the brand-new Shengjing Zero was almost as new, which attracted the praise of the emperor's envoy Mahdi:

"The design of this ship is obviously different from the existing boats, and although it is only partially modified, it is very different from the mainstream ship type in terms of appearance!"

Li Zhi did not explain too much, but only focused on pointing out the significance of the semi-militarized transformation of ships.

The ladies led the guests to board the ship, and Li Zhi stayed on the shore, directing the goods that arrived overnight last night to be loaded onto the car.

Although he and Rahman and Nasser had more in their pockets, they still needed to cover up on the surface.

And there are quite a few of them, and there are more than a dozen carts of paper alone.

Their first destination was naturally Ezhou City, and then they arrived in Yangzhou via the Yangtze River.

Because it is the intersection of the Grand Canal and the Yangtze River, you can reach Hangzhou through the Grand Canal, enter the sea in Mingzhou, pass through Yuezhou, Fuzhou, Quanzhou, and arrive in Guangzhou.

Longju Village rushed along the Danjiang River to Ezhou City to descend, and it only took two or three days for a cultivator to exist on the boat, and he arrived at Ezhou City two days later.

When everyone was resting at the Parrot Island Wharf, Li Teng and other Ezhou government officials arrived together.

The guests of the Western Regions are very important to them, and these guests belong to the state guests and should be treated seriously.

Taking the ferry boat to the opposite bank, there was already a row of brand-new carriages and horses waiting on the side of the road, and Ezhou Mansion chartered a whole high-end inn in order to entertain guests from afar.

At this time, it was just after midnight, leaving two hours of rest for the VIPs, after all, after two days of drifting on the ship, they needed to adjust their physical strength.

A grand luncheon was held at the end of noon, and all the government officials stationed in Ezhou Prefecture arrived.

Unlike in Luoyang or Chang'an City, the guests were still warmly received during the journey, which was both novel and grateful.

Therefore, under the happy mood, the boldness of the people of the Western Regions is fully reflected, and all the men who took it were a hangover, and the afternoon tour that was said to be good was also in the soup.

The ladies could only lead a group of female guests around the neighborhood, and then rush to the restaurant next to the Yellow Crane Tower in the evening for a formal welcome banquet.

After coming to the Eastern Tang Dynasty, these royal family members of the Western Regions Empire can be regarded as having tasted the sweetness of oriental cuisine, and no one is unhappy with participating in the banquet with cumbersome etiquette.

Arabs are actually good at cooking, and the food is colorful, but it is more sweet, fragrant, and greasy.

Ezhou is an important town of traditional food culture of the Han nationality, with both northern and southern styles, but also has its own unique Hubei cuisine, which pays attention to the thick juice, thick thickness, heavy mouth, and pure taste.

Because of the abundant water sources and numerous lakes, fish is naturally a highlight of Hubei cuisine, among which the Wuchang fish is naturally needless to say, the meat is delicate, the fat is rich, and the reputation is outside.

The Arabs, on the other hand, believe in Islam and forbid the consumption of pork, ugly and unclean things, such as soft-shelled turtles and crabs, and dead animals.

Therefore, fish that is not taboo for the people of the Western Regions is the most suitable hospitality dish.

These people can't eat scaleless fish, so the dinner that night made Wuchang fish into a variety of tricks, only to stimulate the guests' appetite.

Eating well is naturally a big drink, there is a local prohibition law in the Western Regions, but there is a habit of drinking, as long as it is not during the fasting period, it is common for nobles to drink in private, but it is generally low-alcohol fruit wine.

It's just that they have the blood of nomads in their blood, and the best way to warm up in the wilderness is high alcohol, so out of the inherent living environment of Islam, they also occasionally try high alcohol.

Because of this, there were actually several kinds of wine on each table, and no one advised them to drink any of them, so that the guests could decide for themselves.

Of course, these wines are the best wines provided by Li Zhi, and under the initial caution, Mahdi and others will still choose fruit wine first, but when they drink it openly, there are not so many taboos.

As a result, the dinner party must be another drunkenness, but the female guests and the children are full of food and drink, and climbing the Yellow Crane Tower is also very enjoyable.

The Yellow Crane Tower is close to the Yangtze River, standing on the top of the Snake Mountain, standing tall and lonely, brilliant and magnificent, the kind of bird's-eye view of the river is like weaving, and the feeling of looking at the beautiful scenery shrouded in the mist is also extremely pleasant.

In the next two days, Li Zhi consulted the guests, deliberately reduced the official reception, and took more than 100 people to play around.

Ezhou city is staggered with harbors, hundreds of large and small mountains spread over the three towns, and nearly 200 lakes are located in the middle, which is a typical one

Landscape garden city.

The scenery of the city alone is enough to feast the eyes of these people.

Moshan, Guqintai, Luojia Mountain, Bafen Mountain, the scenery of which place is not worse than Huaqing Palace, so that a group of foreigners are full of energy every day.

Another day, when they finally decided to set off, they were also seen off by officials of all sizes, and all kinds of local gifts made them smile.

During this period, almost every night, Li Zhidu led his wife to Tongyun Cave, and brought back some half-moon stones, which were given to the cultivators accompanying him in the Western Regions, causing these people to be very familiar with Li Zhiye, and their favorability soared.

Ezhou City is about 2,000 miles away from Hangzhou, and it takes five days to sail by water.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were regulations on inland navigation, such as before or during the voyage, the ship must be inspected at any time to ensure that the hull is impermeable; Ships must berth overnight on the shore of Puzhou Wharf at the port, and are not allowed to anchor at uninhabited deserted shores; As well as the regulations on the speed of the ship, encounter and avoidance, the severity is different, and the trace is different.

These are naturally no obstacles for Li Zhi, and he doesn't even need to come forward in person, and the water post boat station and boat and car tax checkpoints along the way have already been released by Shangfeng all the way.

Even if you encounter a special government boat along the way, you will avoid it early when you see it from afar, and you don't dare to be disrespectful at all.

Official ship transportation is a kind of passenger transportation organized by the government, which is limited to the transportation of court officials and a small number of special official personnel.

In the Tang Dynasty, all court officials and local state and county officials went out to inspect, or were promoted and demoted, according to the regulations of the personnel and soldiers who took the ship.

According to their rank, the number of men they brought with them, and the number and size of ships to be dispatched.

Therefore, Shengjing No. 1 traveled day and night, and arrived in Hangzhou City on the evening of the fourth day.

Many places in Hangzhou were rivers, and at that time, the Qiantang River was wider than now, basically similar to the concept of the sea, so the two larger ships donated by the Western Regions would dock here.

The Shengjing Zero was docked next to these two ships, and Mahdi and Hisham thought it out very carefully, and at this time hundreds of Datang shipwrights had been hired on board.

Li Zhi looked the two ships up and down with great interest, Hisham was in charge of the port affairs of Banikia in their country, and the ships came from his selection.

The ladies were also curious, and excitedly climbed up and down under the guidance of Hisham, and looked around, only Yuran stayed by her side, and she said:

"These two ships are really much bigger than our Shengjing Zero, will they also go to sea with us?"

"Leave one to be renovated in Fuzhou Port, and the other will go with us. Our matter in Maasg is settled, and we will not continue to follow the Shengjing Zero to the west, otherwise it will take many more months to go back and forth! ”

Li Zhi explained to her.

"Also changed to a semi-military design? Isn't the project huge? How much money does it cost? The construction period will also be long. ”

"It's worth the extra cost, otherwise they'll soon fall behind!" When we return, the two ships in Ezhou City will be able to enter the sea, and it doesn't matter if the construction period is longer! ”

Li Zhi's shipbuilding technology has exceeded this era by two hundred years, and there are not many wooden mechanical components, so he is not afraid of arousing the suspicion of others.

The semi-military construction is bound to occupy a large part of the cabin and deck space, but fortunately, the people in the Western Regions who are responsible for escorting have Qiankun bags in their hands, so they don't have to worry about the cargo compartment. (https:)
