Chapter 48: Xijing

Changan.

Began to be named after the Han Dynasty, the beginning of the Xing Zhou, of course not the Wu Zhou, to the Qin Dynasty, to the Weishui through the capital, Fen VII Yu Lie and the six countries, then there is a unification of the world, relying on the rich and abundant Guanzhong Plain.

Later, the Han people built a more huge capital city on the ruins of Xianyang, the capital of Qin, and took the meaning of "long-term peace and stability", so it was named Chang'an, and the following dynasties and dynasties also had many people who took this as the capital, but it really made it famous all over the world, reached the peak of history, and belonged to this dynasty.

In fact, Tianbao eleven years, Chang'an is only a county name in the outline, its official name is, Xijing Jingzhao Mansion, and the northern capital Taiyuan Mansion, the eastern capital Henan Mansion and called the same as the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

However, no one will not know the true meaning of Chang'an.

The Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty, is expanded on the basis of the Daxing City of the former Sui Dynasty, the whole city is located on the side of Weishui, the corridor includes most of the Qin capital Xianyang and the Han Chang'an City, the whole city excludes the Daming Palace complex that protrudes in the Longshou Yuan, roughly presents an unconventional square, because the terrain is high in the southeast and low in the northwest, in order to complement the form of victory, so the new Daming Palace is built in the Longshou Yuan.

From the Hexi Corridor all the way forward, over the Qinling Mountains, then enter the Guanzhong Plain, here is the alluvial plain formed by the Weishui and its tributaries, after thousands of years of reclamation, formed the earliest livable place in China, water conservancy facilities are sound, the land is fertile, fertile land everywhere, known as the "country of abundance".

Along the Weishui front, the administrative division changed from Longyou Road to Gyeonggi Province, and after passing through Longzhou and Qizhou to Wugong County, it officially entered the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Province.

The driver of the brigade was naturally staying in the post house in the city, but Liu Ji took someone to disguise himself first, and he only told Feng Hanyue about this matter, although the girl was a little reluctant, but she knew in her heart that Wulang had something to do and had to avoid people's eyes.

Other people, including all the family members, will stay here, the reason is very simple, what is the final result of Feng Changqing, whether it will be given or not, it is not known, the family members can only wait here, of course Liu Ji will not sit idly by and wait, he has a lot of things to do.

Not surprisingly, Xu Guangjing was left behind again, and together with the vast majority of the Qiankeng soldiers, he took on the responsibility of guarding, in fact, just to keep an eye on one person, Tian Qianzhen, who was captured before.

Liu Ji took away nine people, even him with exactly ten, the candidates were the ones who went back to Khotan Town to sneak attack on Wang Weiliang's department in Xinfuzhou, these days, he has been constantly carrying out targeted training for these people, climbing high and low, stealth and hiding, on the basis of special training in later generations, combined with existing tools to improve, and gradually groped out a set of combat means suitable for the times, and the most effective training is nothing more than actual combat.

Traveling with them was a chic four-wheeled carriage, carrying Du Miaoru and two maids Zhilan and Huixiang, a group of ten people pretending to be guards, plus a few drivers, a few stewards, in order to reduce the number of people in the know, these people were all transferred from the Feng Mansion, and the family members were pinched in the hands of Feng Hanyue, and there was a certain guarantee of loyalty.

The team of less than twenty people set out from Wugong County and arrived in Jincheng County a day later, holding the documents issued by the Qiuzi Governor's Office, and still enjoyed the right to travel at public expense, oh no, to live in the official post.

Jincheng County, formerly known as Shiping County, Jinglong four years, the first emperor Zhongzong personally led the hundred officials to send the princess of Jincheng to marry Tubo, it was here to say goodbye, and then the county was renamed "Jincheng", which is still used today.

Standing in the pavilion that may have been a farewell back then, Liu Ji thought of the woman thousands of miles away, and I don't know what kind of mood she was in when she was only nine years old to spend this night.

"Lang Jun."

Hearing Du Miaoru's voice, Liu Ji turned his head and saw a beautiful woman with cloud sideburns coming over.

"Now I'm just your attendant, Lang Jun, don't call me out again."

"The slave can save it, tonight, let the slave go back at will."

The words of the instructions have been explained a lot on the road, Liu Ji is not a god, he can't predict what will happen next, he can only hope for the woman's own decision, this night, Du Miaoru released his passion to the fullest, giving him unparalleled enjoyment.

"Miao, who are you?"

"The slave is a red man in Qiuzi City."

"Why are you here?"

"Searching for family history."

"What's so special about your family background?"

"The slave's father is from the Qiuzi royal family, and the mother is a Han Chinese, who was exiled to the west of the country because of his sin, and took it in, which is not justified.

"So, what's your last name?"

"White."

After the passion, Liu Ji asked again when she was unconscious, and Du Miaoru answered very fluently, indicating that she had kept these things in mind.

An orphan girl who is not allowed by the family background, is most likely to cause a man's desire to protect, and the resulting speculation, sympathy, and pity will become the attraction of the woman, and as an opportunity, you can quickly open up the situation, Liu Ji from later generations knows that the more this kind of metropolis, the heavier people's hunting psychology, the entertainment of this era is too poor, and the only thing to consider is whether it can be controlled.

After a night's rest, the team got on the road in the early morning, still walking along the Weishui, the wide gallop road, like the highway of later generations, connecting the core area of the Tang Dynasty, this kind of smooth hard road is the most suitable walking medium for the four-wheeled carriage, and its unique shape is even more eye-catching for pedestrians.

The closer to Chang'an City, the more complicated the crowd of people coming and going, the hao slaves in brocade clothes can be seen everywhere, and those who are obeyed by them are naturally either rich or expensive, along the way, Liu Ji sent several groups of snooping people, if it is not for the holding of the Fan Guowen disc, I am afraid that something will happen in the morning.

I don't know if I don't know how small the official is when I don't go to the capital, which dynasty is the same, not to mention that he is a small lord, even Feng Changqing has to hold his tail.

Crossing the bridge on the Weishui River, a majestic city appeared in front of him, since the crossing, Liu Ji has seen different styles, different regions of the city fortress, even the capital of the Tubo people built on the mountain, is no exception, but, at this moment, in the heart, is a deep shock.

It's just too big!

From his point of view, he was facing a corner of the city, and the tall and flat walls on both sides stretched straight forward, as if there was no end, and the towers not far away were majestic and magnificent, and it was only one of the twelve gatehouses in the city.

The city wall with a radius of hundreds of miles, like a chessboard upside down on the side of Weishui, divides the huge city into neat one hundred and ten squares, plus two cities, three palace groups, it forms the largest city in this time and space, enough to accommodate millions of people, of course, this number is counting the people under the city, along the wide official road, on both sides are dense markets, villages, people come and go everywhere, the population density is staggering.

When they arrived, the gates of the city were already open, and the crowds of people entering and leaving were lined up in an orderly manner, and the goods entering and leaving were subject to taxes, and of course the privileged classes were everywhere, and he saw more than once, and the large groups of men and horses were swarming out, and no one dared to stop them.

Fortunately, their procedures were complete, and the little officials guarding the door only slightly corrected the number of people and happily let them go, and Liu Ji, who finally entered the city, suppressed the excitement in his heart and ordered it one after another.

"Inquire where the nearest inn is to Qujiangchi, charter their best room, and then make a decision."

After directing everyone to act separately, he couldn't help but shout in his heart.

Chang'an, I'm here.
