Chapter 56: Reunion
Liucheng, one hundred and fifty years ago, was the capital of Hanzhou (Outer Mongolia and the Russian part), and there were many merchants in the city, and it was extremely prosperous, which was not much better than the big cities of the inland states.
In the light snow on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Ang entered this border city, and Han Baobao beside him looked at the majestic city wall as high as six zhang, and couldn't help but sigh to Li Ang beside him, "When Taizu was eighteen years old, he ran thousands of miles and subdued Xianbei, and ten years later, he broke Wuhuan here, and recruited 300,000 Wuhuan people to build this big city, Yongzhen Hanzhou, what a pride and hegemony!" ”
"Taizu's hegemony is indeed fascinating." Thinking of the Taizu Emperor Cao Cao, who may be the same as himself, Li Ang admired in his heart that he could sweep the world in a short period of thirteen years in the chaotic times at the end of the Han Dynasty, annex the south and the north, suppress the west, and establish the Han people to dominate the world.
After entering the ten-zhang long city gate corridor, Li Ang's front suddenly opened up, and the streets paved with bluestone bricks were full of surging crowds, rubbing shoulders one after another, the noise shook the sky, and the vendors shouted one after another.
Looking at the group of people entering the city, someone soon greeted them. "Sir." The old man dressed as a housekeeper took a few small servants, and there were a few soldiers beside him.
Taking the exchanged dragon ticket from the butler's hand, Han Baobao handed it to Li Ang, "Okay, the post station is in Beicheng, you gave Peng Cheng theirs, I have already sent it." ”
"Thank you, Lord Han." Li Ang took the dragon ticket, and the Korean leopard turned around and thanked him.
"Before the envoys of the Imperial Dynasty arrive, let's wander around!" Han Baobao smiled, looked at Li Ang, who was a little puzzled, and said, "You have captured the two princes of the Turks, and you have to be present during the peace talks." ”
After seeing Han Baobao leave, Li Ang took out three golden dragon tickets and handed them to Feng Siniang, "Put them away." ”
"Then the old lady will accept it." Feng Siniang looked at Li Ang, took it with a smile, then jumped off the horse and said to Li Ang, "It's the first time I've grown so big, it's the first time I've entered such a big city, I have to take a good look." ”
Looking at Feng Siniang, who was smiling happily, Li Ang couldn't help laughing, jumped off the horse and said, "Let's go, let's go shopping together." ”
Trist and Cen Ji led the horse, watching Li Ang, Feng Siniang and Ah Zi walking in front, and when they heard the words of those people next to them, their faces couldn't help but be full of smiles.
"What a handsome boy!" "Yanfu is really not shallow." "The one in red clothes should be an eldest woman, she looks fierce!" "Well, that purple-clothed one doesn't look like it's easy to mess with!" …
Hearing what the people next to him said, Li Ang looked at Feng Siniang and Ah Zi, who were about to have a seizure, and his brows furrowed.
"I'm a man." Ah Zi stopped, looked at the people around him and said coldly, and the knife that slipped down his sleeve came to his hand.
Li Ang looked at the eyes of the girls around him staring at Ah Zi, and suddenly thought of the wolves, he looked at Feng Siniang, "I remembered that I still have something to do, you and Ah Zi, Lao Cen continue to walk, I'll go first." ”
"Hmph, something that doesn't have righteousness." Looking at Li Ang, who fled with Trist, Feng Siniang couldn't help but pout and stomped her feet.
"Look, I've never seen a beautiful man!" Feng Siniang turned around, looked at the crowd around her, suddenly yelled, and then said to Ah Zi and Cen Ji, who was leading the horse, "Let's go." ”
"Boss Feng's personality is very straightforward!" Hearing a faint roar suddenly coming from a distance behind him, Trist couldn't help but look at Li Angdao beside him.
"yes!" Leon laughed, answered, and walked to the side shop, which sold some of the girl's favorite knick-knacks.
"For Boss Wind?" Trist looked at Li Ang, who was looking down and concentrating on picking things, and couldn't help but pout, "I don't think Boss Feng will like these things, right?" ”
"It's for my sister." Leon hugged a bunch of things, went to the counter, and replied.
"This son, a total of seven gold baht." The shopkeeper was a brown-haired and blue-eyed bearded man, wearing a blue shirt, and his eyes were rippling with joy.
"Hmm." Li Ang didn't want to think about it, so he had to pay the bill, but Trist on the side stopped in front of Li Ang, he pointed to the things on the counter and said, "These things are only worth two gold baht, and selling three gold baht is already a huge profit, but you want to sell us seven gold baht, when we are wronged?" ”
Looking at Triste, who was sideways, Hu Shang knew that he had met a tricky character who knew how to do it, and laughed, "It's me who was dazzled and misunderstood, don't be surprised, don't be surprised." ”
In the end, Leon paid three gold baht, and went out of the shop with a bag of knick-knacks and Trist.
"I can't imagine that you are so good at bargaining."
"Forced out, if the people who ran on the Silk Road didn't know how to bargain, they would have lost it a long time ago." Thinking of the past five years on the Silk Road, Trist couldn't help but sigh.
"Speaking of which, you don't seem to have ever been shopping, General!" Seeing that Leon was very interested in anything on the street, Trist couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Speaking of which, I haven't really been shopping." Li Ang thought of his former self and couldn't help but smile, "I have a younger sister, I want to take her shopping in the future, so that I don't know nothing." ”
Picking up a pair of rings on the jewelry stall, Li Ang said to Trist, "After returning to Chang'an, marry your Amei, you two have been delayed for five years, and there are few five years to waste in life." With that, he bought the pair of dragon and phoenix rings made of gold and handed them to Trist.
"Thank you, General." Looking at the brocade box handed over, Trist hesitated for a moment, and finally took it.
"I remember that in the Great Qin Law, if a foreigner takes a Han woman, he must enter the household registration of the Great Qin." Leon looked at Trist and said, "Do you have a guarantor?" ”
"Not yet." Trist shook his head, "It's a big deal, and the lover will vouch for me at that time, right?" ”
"I'll vouch for you!" Li Ang said lightly, Daqin has always been very strict with foreigners who want to join the household registration, and they don't want to be poor, and they don't want to have no ability, in other words, foreigners with Daqin's household registration are usually scholars from various countries or skilled craftsmen, or wealthy businessmen.
"Then thank you, General." Trist didn't know what to say, and with the officer Leon as his guarantor, the little official in the household department couldn't help him if he wanted to.
"Let's go!" Hanging their purchases in the saddle, Leon and Trist led the horse forward again.
At this time, a familiar figure suddenly jumped into Li Ang's sight in front of him, and when that person saw Li Ang, he also stopped, looking at Li Ang's eyes full of surprise and inexplicable feelings.
"What's wrong?" The quiet girl in a white fox fur gently tugged at the people around her, looked at the good-looking Han young man not far from the opposite and asked.
Almost at the same time, Li Ang and King Qi Ling strode towards each other, their eyes full of joy after a long absence.
"Why are you here?" Looking at the girl who was following closely by King Qiling's side, Li Ang paused, then laughed happily, and said to King Qiling, "This... It's Tieler's... Princess? ”
"Ah, yes." King Qiling, who had been staring at Li Ang, came back to his senses, looked at the girl beside him and said, "Who is this?" With that, King Qiling looked at Trist beside Li Ang.
"His name is Trist, he is a servant of General Lee, and he has met His Highness." Trist bowed before Leon could speak, and the man in front of him with a silver ghost face reminded him of the Uighur king of Qiling.
Xue Yiren beside King Qiling, although she is the princess of Tiele, has a peaceful temperament since she was a child, and she has no wildness of desert children.
After chatting all the way, Li Ang knew why the King of Qiling was in Liucheng, it turned out that the Uighurs and Tiele were on the table together, and the emperor allowed them to be attached, and the King of Qiling and Xue Yiren went to Chang'an to make a pilgrimage to thank him, and by the way, he enrolled in Taixue.
"I have handed over the Uighurs to Gulen, and I will never be the king of Qiling again." King Qiling smiled at Li Ang beside him.
"Yes, congratulations on being able to unload those mundane things." Leon laughed too.
Looking at the two of them, Trist and Xue Yiren suddenly felt that it was natural for these two people to walk together, which made people feel that they were very compatible, and they couldn't help but have a strange feeling in their hearts.
