Chapter 22 Seeing Chang'an makes people sad

Early in the morning of the second day, the four of Wuqing came to the post station, and after meeting Li Ji, Li Ji asked his soldiers to get a carriage for the four of Wuqing to ride, and the road to Chang'an was far away, and the carriage was the best means of transportation in this era.

At this point, Wu Qing deeply understands how important transportation is to a country. In terms of transportation, no emperor since the Qin Dynasty can compare with Qin Shi Huang. During the reign of Qin Shi Huang, many straight roads were built, which not only greatly shortened the time for the post station to transmit information, but also facilitated the development of commercial transportation, and played a very great role in promoting the circulation of goods.

Setting off together, there were Zhang Wenjun, the minister of the Imperial Mission, and Shi Peiyan, the waiter, who had a bit of a good time last night, yawning constantly, and the dark circles under their eyes were very obvious. And, of course, a handful of prisoners. After letting people verify the righteousness, they pulled out.

Wu Qing sat in the car, looking at the prisoner car outside the window, there were more than 20 cars, and the prisoners inside were Zhang Yuan, the county commander of Wenshui County, and his people. As for whether to kill or not, it is a matter for Emperor Gaozong.

Wu Qing also saw Zhang Wenjing, who was shouting that he got out of the Shuxiang Garden that day, was locked in the prisoner car at this time, with his head drooping, unkempt, and completely lacking the arrogant demeanor of the past. Wu Qing thought very much about Zhang Wenjing and Huang You, thought about it, and forgot it. Don't be happy and sad, it's yourself who is unlucky. What's more, life in the world, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. If you are happy today, you may not be disappointed in the future.

The long procession slowly drove out of Taiyuan City under the opening of the honor guard. The queue is very long, and the flag is waving the sun. Wu Qing looked at Taiyuan City slowly moving away, there was a lingering sadness and farewell, this feeling was very strange, he had only been in Taiyuan City for one night, and he actually had a feeling of reluctance, could it be that he was in turmoil?

Perhaps, commotion.

In the crowd on the street, two young girls with white and red eyes and bright teeth looked at the procession on the street that was leaving the city, their eyes searched for something, and when the last soldier left the city gate, the two girls showed a look of disappointment in their eyes, but they did not want to say anything.

Seven days later, the army was stationed on the throne, leaving only more than 1,000 soldiers to escort the prisoners, and the procession continued to advance. The great, magnificent, majestic, and majestic Chang'an City is already in sight.

The black line protruding from the flat ground became clearer and clearer, until it slowly approached, and that majestic aura came to the face. Wu Qing's heart spontaneously gave birth to a kind of pride, this is Chang'an City, this is the world-famous city, this is the real capital of all nations.

Chang'an, let the world surrender, so that future generations are out of reach.

This capital of the Tang Empire carries the dreams of many people.

The Tang Dream, the dream of everyone in this world, is just like the American dream of later generations.

At this time, the sun is setting, the Chang'an City under the afterglow, clothed with a layer of golden light, the towering city wall, the towering city tower, the city gate of the three doorways, also become magnificent and majestic in an instant, mysterious, people very much want to see what the city wall looks like.

Wu Qing with a very reverent mood, took a carriage into the Chunming Gate, the Chunming Gate has three doorways, each of which is ten meters wide, the flow of people is like weaving, the Tang soldiers guarding the city gate do not squint, like a stone statue standing still, the soldiers on the city wall are still standing, their armor is clear, the flag flutters in the wind, a strong Tang Dynasty soldier.

The carriage drove into the city, and Wu Qing was shocked by the prosperity of Chang'an City, really shocked, and the little friend was stunned.

The traffic is rolling and the crowds are crowded, and it is so busy. The street is about 30 meters, so wide, the people are brightly dressed, and the occasional Tang beauties interspersed in it are also refreshing. It's just a pity that there are no shops on both sides of this street, which are blocked by the fang wall, and you can't see the scene of those high-gate compounds, and the layout of Chang'an City is completely different from Wenshui and Taiyuan.

The layout of Chang'an City is bounded by the Vermilion Bird Street from Mingde Gate to the Vermilion Bird Gate of the Imperial City, the east is under the jurisdiction of Wannian County, and the west is under the jurisdiction of Chang'an County, each with 54 squares, each has a city, Wannian County is called East City, and Chang'an County is called West City. The shops and merchants of the entire Chang'an City are basically gathered in the two cities.

For the layout structure of "Fang", it is a very painful thing for Wu Qing, which restricts the people and hundreds of officials to a grid, which is easy to manage, and bad to say, this is a restriction on a person's freedom, and the communication between people has also been reduced a lot. What's more, in every square, there is a square square, and there is a "li", and there are several lizheng. These systems all show the strength of the emperor's control over Chang'an City, and if someone breaks the law, it is impossible to hide.

Li Ji's mansion is in Chongrenfang, which is a large mansion, which is close to the imperial city and only three streets away from the Daming Palace, which is convenient for the court. In fact, the houses of many dignitaries and nobles are close to the Daming Palace and several squares of the Taiji Palace. The prisoners themselves Zhang Wenqian and Pei Yan were sent to the prison of the Criminal Department for detention.

Along the way, many times, Wu Qing stayed in Li Ji's carriage, Li Ji began to teach Wu Qing after leaving Taiyuan, telling some stories of some of the big battles he fought back then, interspersed with explaining some matters to be paid attention to in the march, and did not like in the Art of War, how to let Wu Qing do it. From this point of view, Li Ji is a very good teacher.

Analyzing the factors of victory in a war from actual war examples has been a model of tactical analysis in later generations. Li Ji is actually ahead of his time!

Wu Qing admires Li Ji very much, this is a god who fights, and Li Jing is as famous, of course, some people say that Li Ji is not as good as Li Jing, as far as Wu Qing is concerned, in the romance, Li Ji's reputation is louder than Li Jing's, Li Ji is not much worse.

When Li Ji drove into Chongrenfang with his servants and the four of Wuqing, the drums sounded, and then the fangding shouted, and the door closed with a shrill grinding sound after the last dull sound.

The prosperous life of the Tang Dynasty during the day was also shut down, and only the life in each grid remained, or sleeping peacefully, or having an all-night banquet, or a bachelor touching a widow's bed in the dark light.

Wuqing and his group entered Li's house and were arranged by Li Ji in a house called Linfangju, which was a relatively quiet house. Wu Qing sighed at the vastness of the Li Mansion, and the rest still sighed. Are the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty so extravagant, a mansion occupies such a large area, this is the capital, isn't the land price expensive? The answer is yes, many officials in Chang'an City live in rented houses, how can it not be expensive.

For the future, Wu Qing suddenly had a sense of confusion, especially after seeing heroes such as Li Ji, which made him even less confident, although these people are in the shackles of the times, but their philosophy of life, their wisdom in the context of this era, deeply stimulated Wu Qing.

And the advantage he can play is only more than a thousand years of historical and cultural accumulation of people in this era. In the era of Wu Zetian, there were many opportunities to be promoted and make a fortune, but there were also many opportunities to be cut off and pulled out to death. To be an official or not to be an official? To be in business or not to be in business? These problems followed one after another, making Wu Qing sleepless at night.

You can't live in seclusion in the mountains, right? That's too cowardly, I'm too sorry for the identity of the traverser, if you do that, you will not lose your own face, it will be the face of the vast number of traversers, and it will be the face of 40,000 netizens in the future
