Chapter 8: Chang'an, Chang'an!

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day the rooster just crowed, and it was still dark, Chu Ze called Chu Qing, who was still asleep, to load several large tanks into the car one by one, and everything was ready to stop, put on the horse and set off. The horse that pulls the cart is still the war horse of his father, who was a government soldier, and now it is very old, and it is impossible to ride it, and it can barely be used to pull the cart.

Taiping Village is fifty miles away from Chang'an, the two brothers went straight to the official road out of Taiping Village, and occasionally met people who got up early on the road, most of them looked hurried, Chu Ze sighed, "The plan of the day lies in the morning." ”

It was really boring along the way, so Chu Ze turned his head and said to his brother on the side, "Brother, you should find a family business." ”

Chu Qing's face turned red and said gloomily, "Mother also asked someone to be a matchmaker before, but as soon as she heard that it was me, she refused, and now the situation in the family is not as good as before, where is there anyone who is willing, our family's incense, I'm afraid it depends on you to inherit it, alas" After speaking, he sighed deeply.

Looking at Chu Qing's remorseful expression, Chu Ze knew in his heart that his brother must be regretting what he had done before at this time. "It's still a good comrade to know that you can change your mistakes."

"Hmm". Chu Ze groaned, and then continued, "Brother, don't worry, our family will slowly get better, and then when the family conditions are good, I will ask someone to find a family business for my brother." ”

Chu Ze's comfort made Chu Qing's face even redder, and he smiled with a big "hehe".

Looking at Chu Qing, who was smirking, Chu Ze had no desire to continue chatting. The little mouth began to hum a crooked song from his previous life, "The sun is shining in the sky, the flowers are smiling at me, and the little bird says early, why are you carrying a bag of explosives?" I went to bomb the school, the teacher didn't know, as soon as I pulled the line, I ran, boom, the school blew up! The singing revealed Chu Ze's happy mood at this time.

Chu Qing on the side also didn't understand his brother's singing, so he just smirked beside him, thinking about beautiful things.

All the way upside down, finally when the sun rose, I saw a towering city wall, Chang'an City arrived!

"Chang'an, I'm finally here!" How many times I have dreamed back to Datang, I have all sighed at her beauty, appreciating flowers and writing poems, how enjoyable! It's all dreamy. Chu Ze blurted out excitedly, "Chang'an Avenue is even narrow and sloping, and the green ox and white horse are seven incense cars." The jade chariot crossed the main house, and the golden whip flocked to the Hou family. ”

Chang'an City, called Daxing City in the Sui Dynasty, was built in the Sui Dynasty, renamed Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, the capital of the Sui and Tang dynasties, is the most magnificent capital in ancient China, and is also the largest city in the history of the world. It was a magnificent capital city established by Emperor Wen of Sui, reflecting the grandeur of the Great Unification Dynasty. In order to reflect the desire to unify the world and achieve long-term peace and stability, the city embraces the idea of the unity of nature and man in the planning process. "The law is like heaven and earth", the emperor is respected, and hundreds of officials are served.

In order to accommodate more people and migrate to the Jiangnan destroyed nobles of various countries to build the city ahead of time, it has been the largest capital built by mankind for thousands of years, and it is well-deserved as the "world's first city". Chang'an City is composed of three parts: the palace city, the imperial city and the outer Guo city, and all industries in the city are prosperous, with a population of more than 1 million at the peak. The city was inhabited by the magnates of the Tang Dynasty at this time, and exotic traders in the east and west cities could be seen everywhere. With her unique style, Chang'an City conveys her beauty to all countries, which can really be regarded as "all nations come to court!" This is in stark contrast to a dynasty that closed its country thousands of years later!

"Mountains and rivers are thousands of miles away, the city is nine-fold gate, you don't see the imperial palace, and you know the Son of Heaven." , which shows the size of Chang'an City; "Thousands of houses are like a game of Go, and the 12th Street is like a vegetable garden. Recognize the slight upward fire, a star five doors west. It can be seen that the symmetry of the layout of Chang'an City; The light rain in the sky street is as moist as a crisp, and the grass color is close but there is none. It is the most beneficial spring of the year, and it is absolutely better than the smoke and willows in the imperial capital. It can be seen that Chang'an City is beautiful in early spring!

Chu Ze jumped out of the carriage and walked excitedly towards the city with Chu Qing, entered the city from the Mingde Gate, and walked along the Vermilion Bird Street.

With his feet on this land, Chu Ze seems to have returned to the time when he came here to travel in later generations, hundreds of years, thousands of years, how many people have walked here, how many people have stopped here to sigh, and how many stories will happen here! An irresistible ancient charm came to my face, the beautiful green city bricks, the quaint city gates, and the noisy street market The scenes I had imagined many times in my mind instantly coincided, restoring a real ancient city. Although it is winter, there are no flowers and the country is fragrant, but it has a unique bleakness and coldness, which adds a bit of weight to the city. Touching the vicissitudes of time, Chu Ze is once again full of curiosity and fantasy about this city that has been the "imperial capital since ancient times".

In the morning light, Suzaku Street opened its arms to welcome guests from all directions: the students were in a hurry, and the ten-year cold window was to set foot on Suzaku Street and the name of the Wild Goose Pagoda; Merchants were bustling, leading camels, passing through Suzaku Street and gathering in the West Market, and the Silk Road built a bridge between the East and the West; The honest missionaries did not hesitate to trek through mountains and rivers, thousands of miles, through Mingdemen and Zhuque Street, bringing the first religion, the Great Qin Jingjiao, Christianity, and quickly integrated into the culture of the Tang Dynasty; In the expectation of his countrymen, the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty moved away from the land and went deep into Chang'an from Suzaku Street, where they were hungry for knowledge. After they returned to Japan, Kyoto Castle was built, hiragana and katakana appeared, and tea ceremony, kendo, and ikebana were formed; The envoys of various countries walked cautiously on the Suzaku Street, with extremely envious eyes, witnessing the prosperity and wealth of the Tang Empire, they stood respectfully outside the Honglu Temple, waiting for the arrangement of the officials of the Honglu Temple, waiting for the reception of the Tang Emperor; The people of Chang'an County and Wannian County in the east and west of the street live peacefully and happily on this street, and Zhuque Street is like a book telling the prosperity and atmosphere of the Li Tang Dynasty......

Walking on Suzaku Street, Chu Ze couldn't help but sigh, "It's spectacular, it's really spectacular!" Chu Qing on the side walked forward cautiously with his head down at this time, quite restrained, a typical appearance of a countryman's process, no wonder he, although Taiping Village is not far from Chang'an City, but Chu Qing has only come to Chang'an City a handful of times since he lived.

Chu Ze was thinking about where to sell his bean sprouts as he walked, and if he had the opportunity to visit Chang'an City in the future, it was still important to do business at the moment.

Chu Ze laughed out loud, "Brother, do you know which is the largest restaurant in Chang'an City?" ”

"Second brother, our bean sprouts haven't been sold yet, where are the silver taels going to the restaurant."

At this time, Chu Ze had a confused look on his face, "Alas." is really a foodie, why does this unreliable brother only think about eating. ”

Chu Ze waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to the restaurant to eat, I'm going to sell bean sprouts." ”

"Oh, then I don't know"

Sure enough, it's a vain question to ask, so let's go ahead and see!
