Volume 8 Chapter 58 You Chang'an

Wei Yan's plan was put forward and won the promise of His Majesty Li Er's full support, and some flaws, His Majesty Li Er gave correct guidance and suggestions, of course, Wei Yan only nodded his head, he was self-aware, conspiracy theory, he was weak. The plan was adopted, and all that remains is to carry it out. In order to better let Lu Dongzan understand the Tang Dynasty and "eat and drink well, don't run around when you're done" in Datang, His Majesty Li Er, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, deliberately temporarily organized a reception group, and Wei Yan was also on the list of the reception group.

On the first day after the imperial banquet, Lu Dongzan admired the mood of the Tang Dynasty, and Qin Weitongshoe, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Tang Dynasty and the head of the Tang "Three Escorts" group, accompanied Lu Dongzan to visit Chang'an, and Wei Yan, a member of the group, accompanied him. The itinerary of the tour fully refers to the requirements of Comrade Lu Dongzan, and the first day of visiting is Chang'an City.

Early in the morning, the brothers went to the hotel where Lu Dongzan lived, neither of them wore official uniforms, they were dressed in civilian clothes, Lu Dongzan saw this, and hurriedly asked him if he also needed to change his clothes. Qin Wei said with a smile: "Daxiang, you are a guest, your official uniform is not like ours in the Tang Dynasty, the people don't know it, there is no need to be like us, I and Lord Wei are dressed like this, but also so that Daxiang can better visit Chang'an, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble because of the identity of the two of us." Minister, if you are ready, then please. ”

Lu Dongzan nodded, seeing that Qin Wei and Wei Yan only brought two people with them, and they followed them out. Lu Dongzan's hotel is closer to the East Market, and the group went to the East Market first. Now the Tang Dynasty Chang'an. Although it is not said that they are all foreigners, there are really a lot of foreigners, Wei Yan and Qin Wei are wearing civilian clothes, and they can only see that their identities are not bad, and there are many people wearing them like this in this East City. Lu Dongzan and his party. Wearing a fur coat and robe, a scimitar full of precious stones hung from his waist, but only occasionally someone looked at them, and did not pay special attention to it, obviously, everyone was used to seeing foreigners, Lu Dongzan only then understood why Qin Wei asked him not to change his clothes. Because there is no need to change at all.

Walking around the street casually, occasionally seeing something of interest, Lu Dongzan would ask the entourage to buy it, and Wei Yan would pay for it in the back. Of course, this is a public expense. Seeing Wei Yan paying, Lu Dong said in amazement: "Do you nobles of the Tang Dynasty still need to pay for these things?" In Tibet, everything belongs to the nobility, and the serfs give us things, which is the supreme glory. ”

Between the words, there is a bit of pride. Wei Yan said with a smile: "What the prime minister said, I have also heard and heard it below. In your Tibet, there is no money or silver, barter, serfs have been slaves of the nobility for generations, and all the output is aristocratic land. ”

Lu Dongzan has not yet agreed. Qin Wei also continued: "I have also heard what Master Wei said, it seems that the regions, nationalities, and cultures are different, and the way of life is also different. Since the first emperor unified the six countries, the slavery system has been extinct, and now it has been nearly a thousand years. ”

Qin Wei was a little embarrassed, and only after sighing did he have an apologetic expression. praised Lu Dong: "I'm very sorry. Great appearance, sighed for a while. Don't blame you for your negligence. ”

Lu Dongzan said: "It's okay, we Tubo people are straightforward, not as good as you Tang people pay attention to etiquette, why do you say negligently, please continue to take Lu Dongzan to other places to see." ”

After shopping around the East Market for a morning, buying a lot of things, he directly found a carriage and asked the guards to send him back, Qin Wei said: "Prime Minister, it's almost noon, presumably the Prime Minister already has a feeling of hunger in his belly, right?" The good restaurant in front of me is the most famous restaurant in my Chang'an City, today at noon, I will entertain the prime minister here, please taste the delicacies of my Tang Dynasty. ”

Lu Dongzan patted his belly and said with a smile: "I was fortunate to taste the imperial banquet in the palace yesterday, and I can come to taste the folk food today. ”

Wei Yan also went up to his own restaurant, of course, he came more often, the guys in the restaurant were explained everything, and when Wei Yan came, he was also received like an ordinary person, and his identity could not be exposed. When I went to the restaurant, I directly asked for a private room, and the guy sent a beautifully made menu, and the well-trained introduced today's dishes to everyone.

Qin Wei and Wei Yan are both regular customers, Qin Wei flipped through the menu and asked, "What dishes do you recommend in your building today?" ”

The guy said politely: "Back to the guest officer, a tender lamb was slaughtered in the kitchen today, so today's main dish is small to recommend roast lamb leg to all guest officers......"

The guy said a bunch of dishes about mutton, and after asking Lu Dongzan, Lu Dongzan was obviously more interested in the mutton of the Tang Dynasty, and said that he wanted to taste it to see how it was different from their Tubo. At that moment, Qin Wei ordered a roast leg of mutton, as well as a few other dishes, looking at the number of people, guarding a table, Lu Dongzan and others at a table, according to the number of people, there were five dishes and one soup.

Good to come to the restaurant again, that's not bragging, when ordering the food, I deliberately took into account the taste of Lu Dongzan, and the girl who ate was satisfied, clamoring to come to the restaurant again in the future. Qin Wei and Wei Yan glanced at each other without a trace, and didn't say anything.

After dinner, continue to go to the West Market, compared to the East Market, the West Market is much more lively, all kinds of Hu merchants open wine shops and other places, there are many folk craftsmen and the like, shouting, selling sound mixed together, although a little noisy, but there is also a different atmosphere.

Lu Dongzan was fascinated for a while, if the East Market is a place where rich and noble people gather, then the West Market is a place for ordinary people, selling all kinds of things, and all kinds of daily necessities. Lu Dongzan said with admiration on his face: "If you want to know the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, you don't need to go anywhere, you just need to go around in this East and West Market to understand, if it is really the Heavenly Empire, it is really admirable." ”

I didn't buy anything in the West Market, Lu Dongzan just walked around the street, stopped at the place where the four treasures of the study were sold, and even copied a handful of white noodles from others to taste them in the place where rice and white noodles were sold, watching ordinary people buy rice and noodles from the store with a smile, and looked at the smiles on everyone's faces, and was stunned for a long time. However, there was no look of depression between the eyebrows. On the contrary, he was resolute, his thick lips were pursed tightly, and he walked silently all afternoon, and when Qin Wei called him back, he was still a little unsatisfied.

sent Lu Dongzan back to the hotel, and Qin Wei and Wei Yan went back together. Because of the work of the reception group in the past few days, and the old man and the old lady miss it, Xie Jiu and the two children took it over together, and the family of four in the Wei Mansion currently lives in the Qin Mansion.

"Today, let Nalu Dongzan experience the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty, and tomorrow according to the itinerary, I will take him to the Praetorian Guard."

Under the sunset. Qin Wei and Wei Yan rode on their horses and slowly went home together, Qin Wei said lightly. Wei Yan smiled evilly and replied, "Well, it's time to go see the army." With Your Majesty's style, tomorrow is worth looking forward to, but the two of us are going to be the foil, don't worry about the two of us, let's continue to worry about how to continue to praise Lu Dong, our Datang knows Tubo very well, in short, we just want to make you think that we are familiar with every grass and tree in Tubo as if we were in our own backyard. ”

Qin Wei laughed. He excitedly said: "If there is anything that needs the cooperation of the foolish brother, you should mention it earlier." ”

"Don't worry, big brother, the two of us have a good cooperation today, and we will continue tomorrow."

The brothers talked and laughed and went back. As soon as he entered the house, he handed over the reins of the horse to his subordinates, bounced off the dust, and went back to the backyard to change his clothes. Xie Jiu was not in the backyard, it was estimated that he was with the children with the two old ladies, Wei Yan changed his clothes and went out, and went straight to the old lady to find someone, and by the way, he said hello to the old ladies.

A group of women, young and old, sat under the shade of the trees, playing chess, playing mahjong. Xie Jiu, godmother, stepmother. There is also Qin Wei's daughter-in-law, and the four of them gathered at a table. Niuniu's little girl is also here. Helping to take care of the two children, and helping the old lady by the way. As soon as Wei Yan arrived at the door, he opened his throat and shouted: "Godmother, stepmother, the child is back, how much did Godmother win today?" ”

Everyone is accustomed to his lively temperament, when he is not there, the house seems to be a lot deserted, as soon as Wei Yan comes back, it is like there are several more people, very lively, very popular with the two old ladies. When the godmother saw Wei Yan coming in, she said with a smile: "Shiro is back, come here, help the godmother to refer to the details, your stepmother has a girl to watch, that little girl is a good person, but she won me a lot of money." ”

"Daddy, hug!" Qiqi, who was in Xie Jiu's arms, saw his father coming back, and immediately rubbed off Xie Jiu's body, and ran towards his father with his little hands open. Wei Yan hurriedly hugged the daughter who rushed over, pasted it on her little face, and then sat down behind the godmother, rolled up her sleeves, and began to fulfill the responsibilities and obligations of the staff officer with a full posture.

Wei Yan was also very happy, and he acquiesced to the title of the little God of Wealth, and helped to continue to serve with great interest, so that he could not die, and actually gave him a few handfuls, so that the stepmother and sister-in-law made fun of each other, but they were thick-skinned, and compared with the pleasure of winning cards, they were trivial and not worth mentioning.

Just after the sister-in-law fired another shot, Niuniu, who was sitting behind her, suddenly smiled at Wei Yan, and said to Linlin, who was holding a piece of jerky in her arms: "Little Lin'er, my sister will give you another piece of jerky, will you lend your father to your sister again?" ”

Lin Lin looked at his father who was holding his sister, then looked at the jerky in his hand, stretched out his chubby little hand, his big eyes were shining, and he said in a milky voice: "Sister, give Linlin a lot of jerky, Dad will give it to you!" ”

As soon as these innocent words came out, the people present laughed, only the father's face was full of crying and laughing when he was exchanged for a few pieces of meat by his son, and he was full of grudges, it turned out that in the eyes of his son, he was not as good as a few pieces of jerky. Glaring at Niuniu with a helpless smile, in exchange for a little girl's delicate smile, however, the teasing in her eyes is also very obvious, the stinky girl is really bad.

Wei Yan is not a person who is willing to suffer, of course, he wants to take revenge and go back, so he simply ridiculed Niuniu for burying her own master's bad behavior in order to please her future mother-in-law, and called on everyone to despise and spurn her together. This joke, the little girl was ashamed and annoyed, if she hadn't estimated that her future mother-in-law was there, she would really have sneered back, and Wei Yan, that is not big or small, but when she is with her future mother-in-law, the image has to be taken into account.

Seeing that the little girl was defeated, Wei Yan had to take a handful of things, and when the next person came to call for dinner, he helped the godmother a few more times. A group of people talked and laughed, ate dinner noisily, walked around the garden of Qinfu, and exercised after dinner, but Wei Yan did not participate, and he was shopping with Lu Dongzan all day today, and his legs hurt as if he was not his own, and it hurt when he pressed it casually, and his heels were numb. Coaxed the children to sleep, Wei Yan soaked his feet in hot water, and boiled some medicinal juice to relieve fatigue, Xie Jiu washed his hands, helped him do a massage, and continued to accompany him tomorrow, but it would not be a day. Wei Yan enjoyed the occasional pro-people service of Lord Taiza, rubbed his chin and sighed: "It turns out that men are crazy when they go shopping, and they are not much better than women. ”

Xie Jiu smiled slightly, did not speak, and massaged intently. was pressed sore, Wei Yan could only divert his attention, chattering and chattering, reading and reciting Lin Lin's "bold words" today, Wei Yan said: "Poor, he hurts so much in vain, a few pieces of jerky will sell Dad, little white-eyed wolf!" Much better than me, though. ”

Wei Yan's last nagging aroused Xie Jiu's interest, and he asked curiously, "What do you say?" Have you done such things? ”

Wei Yan rolled his eyes and said, "Who hasn't done such a stupid thing when they were young?" I think back then, my dad's friend, with two hawthorn pills, asked me to shout to knock down xxx, I forgot to say, xxx is my dad and my mom's names, hahaha......"

Recalling the naΓ―ve and ignorant childhood, Wei Yan was quite happy and smirked, and Xie Jiu also laughed, and joked with a smile: "Dare to love our Linlin's stupid words today and there are genetic factors in it." ”

Wei Yan was choked, a smile on his face, facing Xie Jiu's beautiful smiling face, a certain man howled: "Yaya, you actually make fun of me like this, dare to laugh at the court officials, what should I be guilty of!" ”

As he spoke, a tiger jumped over, grabbed Xie Jiu and began to scratch, and then, a string of laughter and screams pierced out, but it seemed to be too much, only to hear a "bang", a "bad", it seemed to ...... Probably...... A man kicked over the basin for soaking his feet! So the lion who lived on the east side of the creek began to shout: "Guard, you have caused trouble, mop the ground!" ”

So, at night, there was a figure in the house who was wiping the floor, and while wiping, he repeatedly sang: "Master said that the woman under the mountain is a tiger, and you must avoid it when you encounter it!" ”
