Body 667 Chang'an City
An Xiaohe and the palace maid hung up the bait, turned their heads and disappeared from Bai Qi, hurriedly looked back, and saw that not far behind them, the husband and Sister Pei, I don't know when they sat behind her.
So he waved to the two of them excitedly, and said happily: "Your Highness, wait a while, the concubine will catch a fish soon, and the concubine will cook fish for you in the evening." ”
"Then forget it, I'm afraid I won't have to eat dinner." Li Hong hit An Xiaohe's self-confidence, and suddenly caused An Xiaohe's displeased eyes.
Pei Wanying, who was next to her, denied it for a while, and said again and again: "Sister An, fish well, I will join hands with you to cook at night and cook a fresh and delicious meal for His Highness to taste." ”
"It's a deal." An Xiaohe was still like an elf, smiling and beckoning to the two again, then turned his face and began to catch fish harder.
It's just that the sky doesn't fulfill people's wishes, seeing the afterglow of the sunset gradually disappearing from the roof, and the golden sunset reflected in the sky has begun to blur from the brightness, but whether it is An Xiaohe or Pei Wanying, who helped later, the two still haven't caught a fish.
Li Hong yawned and looked at the backs of An Xiaohe and Pei Wanying, who were a little anxious, and said lazily: "Others don't know if they follow me or not, this fishing will follow me at a glance, it is definitely pro." ”
The weather in May was still a little cold in the morning and evening, and the palace maids took slightly thicker clothes and draped them on Li Hong and the others.
The two of them took advantage of the excitement and returned home, one by one with their heads down, not a single fish was caught, and in the face of Li Hong's somewhat gloating smile, the two were embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Forget it, don't be embarrassed, it can only mean that your skills need to be improved, next time I will teach you to fish, I am the best at fishing, I don't believe you go and ask Bai Chun, by the way, today is just right, Hua Meng, go pick up Bai Chun, call the two princesses Shangyiyang and Gao'an, let's go to Chang'an City for dinner." Li Hong looked at the sunset that was gradually disappearing in the sky, looked at the two people who walked in front of him, and then said.
The boastful words naturally aroused the eyes of Pei Wanying and An Xiaohe, but the two girls did not refute him, but after hearing that they were going out of the imperial city and going to Chang'an for dinner, their little faces, which were originally depressed, suddenly became brighter, and they began to discuss where to eat and what to eat for a while, and they no longer forgot their husband, His Royal Highness the Prince.
Seeing the two girls discussing food selflessly, someone had to touch his nose and signal that he was ready to leave for Chang'an.
Since Li Hong's wedding, Bai Chun seems to have settled in the Pu Wangfu, usually basically has nothing to do and rarely comes to the East Palace, and occasionally, every once in a while, he will come over, but he basically does not live in the East Palace, unless Li Hong keeps her.
Yiyang and Gao An were placed in the same mansion by Li Hong, and this mansion was not someone else's, it was Li Xian, the king of Pei, who was sent to Yiyang and Gao An by Li Hong after he was exiled.
This move also caused a little dissatisfaction between Li Zhi and Wu Mei, but he did not recruit Li Hong to the palace to ask the reason, but acquiesced to Li Hong's proposition.
So after two months of living in Yiyang and Gao'an, the small turmoil can be regarded as silently drowned in time, and no one cares about it anymore.
With the development of Chang'an City in recent years, especially the increase in the population of Fanbang and the increase in the wealth of merchants, the living standards of the people of Chang'an have improved.
The original inns, restaurants, tea shops, and flower shops, which were loved by the majority of the people and lingered, seemed a little shabby and could not keep up with the pace of the times, and at the same time, some could not meet the needs of everyone.
So in recent years, a large number of buildings with exotic styles, inns and restaurants with novel styles and luxurious atmosphere have sprung up.
Therefore, in the eyes of the people, when it comes to the architecture of Chang'an, in addition to the design of the major temples and gardens, it is to appreciate the famous red light district Pingkangfang, the east and west cities and other places, and all kinds of humanistic buildings, which have become another major feature and the hobby of tourists.
With the original Jingzhao Mansion governor Zong Chuke, under the instruction of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Li Hong, the originally established fang walls between the various squares in Chang'an City were deliberately demolished in some areas, and finally became a large square area that can be communicated for twelve hours a day.
The curfews and other already loose martial law, and the strictness of the city military guards, are no longer strictly controlled, and for these large areas, it is only a symbolic patrol, whether it is pedestrians or horse-drawn carriages on the road during the day or late at night, and even inquiries are no longer asked.
The great degree of freedom not only exceeded the expectations of the people of Chang'an City, but also exceeded the expectations of Li Zhi and Wu Mei.
When Li Zhi and Wu Mei recruited Li Hong to the palace to reprimand, someone lowered his head and rolled his eyes and said, "In a few years, he plans to tear down the walls of Chang'an City and expand Chang'an City."
The words were regarded by Li Zhi and Wu Mei as Li Hong's rebellious words, so the two of them reprimanded and kicked one person, and drove the unfilial Prince out of the palace, leaving a sentence: "If you dare to demolish the wall of Chang'an City, I will demolish the East Palace for you".
On the contrary, at this time, the pedestrians on the road are still smiling, leisurely and comfortable, or walking on both sides of the street, in and out of various shops, or a few scholars, besieging the city, looking at the exotic style of the building, pointing.
The carriage and the sedan chair driver are never compared with the foot, at the beginning of the frequent occurrence of the sedan chair driver and the coachman noisy, and even when there are more and more contradictions, Zong Chuke decisively divided the carriage and the sedan chair driver and pedestrians on the main streets of Chang'an City, and standardized the traffic order of the entire Chang'an City.
And this also caused great dissatisfaction among the people of Chang'an and exotic merchants who felt bound when they walked, and similarly, it naturally attracted the dissatisfaction of Yushi and other officials.
But when Li Hong let themselves experience it in Chang'an City, the busiest time, and this system has been implemented for a while, so the hundred officials faced the lively and extraordinary scene, looking at the orderly carriages, sedan chair drivers, and pedestrians, each walking on the road that belongs to them, not only did not appear restrained, but felt a neat beauty after the order was maintained, and there was no longer their impression of the noisy shouting, not giving in to each other, or the crackling of the horsewhip in the air, Scares the condition of pedestrians on the road ahead.
Three-storey, four-storey, or even five-storey civil engineering structures are already common buildings in Chang'an City, and the people who have lived in Chang'an for a long time have become accustomed to it, but the newcomers from other places, businessmen, or foreign business travelers seem to be in another world.
Standing in front of tall and beautiful buildings with carved beams and paintings of different styles on both sides of the road, I looked up with infinite confusion and disbelief, and my heart was full of shock.
"What a wonderful Chang'an City, in a few years, after the walls on both sides of the east and west to the south are demolished, you can build such a tall building as you are today like this large area, and it will be ...... at that time." Li Hong sat in the carriage and sighed full.
"I'm afraid that the streets of Chang'an City will not be able to see the sun, every winter, the streets have a lot more shadows than in previous years." An Xiaohe shook her head, looked left and right, the sugar gourd in her hand was already the second string, and she didn't know if she would eat dinner for a while.
"Nonsense, isn't it just that there is less sunlight at dusk, how can it be as unbearable as you say." Li Hong didn't wait for An Xiaohe to put the sugar gourd in his mouth, and he quickly bit a shiny sugar gourd in his mouth.
"You signaled Zong Chuke to resist the pressure of the prisoner, and these buildings that were built, according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, are all violated, and the Ministry of Industry can turn a blind eye under your pressure, but if you want to build the main square areas of Chang'an like this, I am afraid that the prison will be impeached with Yushitai again." Bai Chun was also sitting in the carriage, next to An Xiaohe, watching An Xiaohe pout, dissatisfied with the best-looking sugar gourd, which was bitten by His Royal Highness.
"Laws can be changed, but they are not dead, how can they always be immutable." Li Hong continued to look at the brightly lit night scene outside, and said lightly.
"But now...... Dali Temple, Yushitai, and even the Criminal Department didn't agree? Not to mention the prison, every day in conjunction with the Imperial Historical Observatory, they are about to impeach the Ministry of Works, and it is difficult to be a person if they are caught in the middle. Moreover, you can't keep talking about the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, then Your Majesty will be unhappy. Bai Chun snatched the sugar gourd in the hand of An Xiaohe, who was still dissatisfied, and handed it to Pei Wanying and asked, "Do you want to eat it?" ”
Li Hong glanced at Bai Chun, who looked indifferent, strangely, and then asked, "Have you heard any rumors again during this time?" ”
"Ministry of Industry, after Fang Xianzhong, you have been uncertain about the position of Shangshu, and people are ...... panic."
"But these are all court matters, how do you know?"
"I want to build a ......." As soon as Bai Chungang spoke, in the face of Li Hong's strange eyes, he laughed embarrassedly first, holding Pei Wanying's arm and laughing, and after a long while, he continued: "But now that the Ministry of Industry does not dare to approve it, it will be rejected directly by the superintendent, how can it be good?" ”
"It's not profitable, it's not early." Li Hong threw down a sentence, and then stepped out of the carriage, and saw Yiyang and Gao An, standing at the door of the restaurant, looking at him with a smile.
