The imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty is located in the north of Chang'an City, and there are three city gates in the south, Dong'an Gate, the Vermilion Bird Gate, the West Hanguang Gate, and the Vermilion Bird Gate in the middle is the famous Vermilion Bird Street.

In Chang'an in later generations, Zhuque Street is still a landmark building that distinguishes the east and west cities of Chang'an.

At this moment, it was early in the morning, and the population was faint, but there was a carriage at the Suzaku Gate, and the carriage was simply decorated, as if it was an ordinary rich and noble family, but the reins were tied to six white horses.

People with a little insight will not laugh at the simplicity of this carriage, let alone show off their wealth like Shi Chongzuo's death, the wood used in the carriage is even more high-quality Qiongzhou Huanghuali, a small piece will cost a full ten gold, not to mention that the whole carriage is made of such good materials, with knives on the left and right, hundreds of thousands of horsemen wearing cold and hard bright light armor will teach them how to behave.

But this is not enough to show the identity of the one sitting in the carriage, the good Hexi horses who hang their heads and whisper are all white, and there are even six horses, even if the Tang Dynasty masters the Hexi Corridor, it is difficult to choose so many white horses.

"Zhou Li" said: "The Son of Heaven drives six, the princes drive five, the Qing drives four, the doctor is three, the scholar is two, and the Shuren is one." ”

If the officials of the previous dynasty were there, they would definitely be able to see at a glance that the emperor was in this carriage, but it was not clear who it was, after all, there were two Majesties in this dynasty. But now it happens to be the "ten-month holiday" for Datang officials, that is, the time for officials to take a holiday.

In the Han Dynasty, the official's holiday was "five days and one rest", and in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the five-day holiday became a ten-day holiday, which was called "ten days off." "Although there was a reduction in the Song Dynasty, it was still about fifty-four days, but in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, was an idle person, willing to add salary to the Ming Dynasty, burning himself to illuminate others, so the officials of the Ming Dynasty were particularly hard, the money was not enough to eat, and even the holiday was only one month.

The old Li family is still a nobleman in the end, and they are thin-skinned and can't do such things, so Li Yuan didn't see an official go to work when he traveled today. (The palace inside the palace is where the emperor lived, and the others were offices.) ）

The picture screen standing outside is delicate and cute, and by asking Li Yuan, she also knows her position as a female official, and the female history of the fifth grade, the power is also quite large, and it is equivalent to the prime minister of the imperial court in the palace. ”

With the Sui system of the Tang Dynasty, the rights of female historians were reduced compared with the ancient system, and they only assisted the empress in handling internal affairs and correcting etiquette. That's right, the painting screen was originally the personal maid of Sun Wuji, the head of the Qin Palace,

This figure stomped his feet coldly, sighed heavily into his cold palm, and then asked, "Your Majesty?" What is so beautiful about this gate, the concubine has been looking at it with you for a long time, and she has not seen anything else. ”

"Picture screen, you say, is this Suzaku Gate called Suzaku Gate? Or is it called Suzaku Gate? Li Yuan opened the curtain of the carriage and said with a smile, the Son of Heaven is not a butcher who ambushes millions of corpses and bleeds thousands of miles in anger, and the small complaint of the painting screen is also reasonable.

The painting screen was puzzled, looked up at the mottled seal font "Vermilion Bird Gate", and said uncertainly: "Your Majesty, since this Vermilion Bird Gate is called the Vermilion Bird Gate, it must have its reason, but the concubine can't say it...

"Alright, let's get in the carriage, it's cold outside." Li Yuan lowered the curtain and shrank into the carriage.

"Your Majesty!" The silver teeth that were holding his breath were clenched, but he was stunned and did not dare to make a sound, his white cheeks were stuffed and bulging, and he stepped on the small steps folded by the carriage and got back into the carriage.

As for why Li Yuan stopped here, the reason is related to the holy decree that Li Shimin made a holy decree five days ago to renovate the Shanglin Garden in Cuihua Mountain in Lantian for the emperor's retirement.

Shanglin Yuan was the emperor's palace in the Qin and Han dynasties, similar to the Chengde Summer Resort in the Qing Dynasty, the main entertainment is hunting, but now it is the Tang Dynasty, and there were emperors who lived in Shanglin Yuan temporarily, but the time is too long, and it is inevitable that it will be dilapidated.

It stands to reason that the repair time will take at least half a month, but Li Yuan can't wait.

The reason is that Ying Guogong Wushi Tong is going to Lizhou to be the governor, it doesn't matter if he leaves, the key is that he also has a three-year-old daughter, and this daughter Li Yuan has been thinking about it for a long time.

So as soon as the morning dawned, he hurriedly went out of the palace to prepare to go to the Yingguo Mansion, and when he arrived at the Suzaku Gate, he suddenly thought of what Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin said to Zhao Pu in Kaifeng.

A short story of Suzaku Gate and Suzaku Gate.

Legend has it that Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, was ready to expand the outer city after becoming emperor.

When he came to the Suzaku Gate, he looked up and saw the words "Suzaku Gate" written on the forehead of the door, and felt awkward, so he asked Zhao Pu, the minister next to him: "Why don't you write the three words 'Suzaku Gate' and write 'Suzaku Gate, four words?'" What's the use of using an extra 'zhi'? ”

Zhao Pu told him: "This is the use of the word 'zhi' as a verbal particle. ”

Zhao Kuangyin laughed after hearing this, and said: "What can these imaginary words help with!" ”

Later, there was a proverb among the people: "Those who are good have already done it, and they can use it well." (This is where the idiom 'Zhihu also' comes from.) ）

......

Chang'an City is divided into one hundred and eight squares, bounded by Zhuque Street, belonging to Wannian County in the east and Chang'an County in the west, and Pingkangfang, which worries the literati and ink writers the most, is in Chang'an County, that is, the west city of Chang'an.

As soon as the Suzaku Gate came out, it entered the outer Guo City, and the four major squares of Taiping, Guanglu, Xingdao, and Wuben opposite the front of the palace were the locations of the princes and nobles, and the Yingguo Mansion was in the Wuben Fang.

Yingguo Mansion.

As the door of the Guogong Mansion, it has always been inoften opened, unless it is to meet a noble person with a noble status, otherwise even a precious granddaughter like Lin Daiyu, who is the tip of Jia's mother's heart, can only go through the side door, but today the door of the Yingguo Mansion is open.

Dozens of ox trucks outside the door were carrying heavy goods, and a steady stream of family members walked around the house, and rows of women and children had a hint of pity on their faces, as if they were full of worries about the future.

As the old saying goes, the door is always open, and the fortune is gone.

Wu Shi Tong pressed Li Yuan, a hidden dragon, when Yang Guang was in the middle of the day, and the Great Sui did not show the sunset of the rivers, it can be said that his eyesight is very powerful, and he is also a very shrewd businessman.

But the more shrewd, the more shrewd he will be, the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Industry has not been hot for long, Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Change, as Li Yuan's person, he was very disgraced and resigned from his official position and rushed to Lizhou, where is Lizhou?

The northern part of Sichuan is an important passage into Sichuan, mostly mountainous, and there is no doubt that the bitter cold land is also!

If it was replaced by the original big businessman, he didn't care about it, as long as he had money, he would have his own place to go, but the sad thing was that because he was a business official, Li Yuan remembered his kindness in Jinyang (Taiyuan) and named him the Duke of Yingguo, so most of the officials in the same dynasty looked down on him as a businessman.

For this reason, the samurai Tong made up his mind that he would never engage in business, and sold the original shops one after another, originally according to his title of the founding duke, there was nothing wrong with the country, but now he hates Liangliang, a generation of emperors and a generation of ministers, and it is good to kill them all.

"Ying Guogong, if you are okay, you will sign this contract, and this house will belong to a certain person from now on... Tsk, this is a good location in the capital workshop, and those county lords are still worried about not being able to buy a house. ”
