According to Chu Ran's previous calculations, if the annual tax revenue of the Great Xia Kingdom was only 500,000 taels, then the lives of the people would be simply miserable.

In that way, each family only has an income of more than 1,000 yuan per year, and if it is distributed to each person, it may only be a few tens or hundreds of yuan a month.

If this were put into the real world, it would probably be the standard of living 50 years ago. In Chu Ran's opinion, even if the Great Xia Kingdom was the ancient background of the real world, it would not be so miserable.

"Your Majesty, it's going to get dark in three hours, are you going to drive out of the palace?"

Looking at the sky outside, Zhao Yindong didn't understand why Chu Ran was here.

Generally, the emperor has to prepare for leaving the palace several days in advance, which is by no means a trivial matter.

"Don't bother!" Waving his hand, Chu Ran said, "Let's go out in micro-clothes dressed as ordinary people." ”

If you want to go out for a walk, you naturally can't make a big move.

"What? Micro service out of the palace? The emperor thinks twice! ”

As soon as he heard Chu Ran's words, Zhao Yindong was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a "plop", and said with a sincere and terrified face: "The emperor is the king of a country, how can he risk leaving the palace in micro-service?" ”

Xiao Dongzi's expression was sad and indignant, and he looked like an old minister admonishing.

"Don't do this!"

Looking at Zhao Yindong's forehead, Chu Ran knew that he was acting: "When I said that when I secretly ran out with me before, you weren't like this!" ”

From his memory, Chu Ran knew that when he was in the mansion before, he didn't have a lot of ideas to run out, and at that time, he and Zhao Yindong tried all kinds of ways. It's a pity that most of them ended in failure, and at most one time they ran out and were caught in less than a quarter of an hour.

"But the emperor, you are the emperor now, it's different from before!" Scratching his head, Zhao Yindong muttered quietly.

If he wants to go out of the palace to play, he is also eager to play. After all, although he is the personal eunuch of the emperor's side, he is only fifteen years old, and he also has a love of fun.

But Zhao Yindong knew that the identity of Xin Zai Chu Ran was different from before. In the past, Chu Ran was only a prince, but now he is the king of a country, and he can't easily risk himself.

"Don't say more, I've made up my mind, let's see how it's better to go out, and don't let others find out."

took off the golden coat on his body, and Chu Ran no longer paid attention to Zhao Yindong.

Half an hour later, Zhao Yindong pushed a cart with a large box on it.

Behind him, however, were two guards in golden vests. The two guards were not burly, but the people around them bowed their heads when they said to them.

The reason is that the two guards are dressed in the service of close guards.

Close guards, also called first-class guards, official positions and three grades, where the surrounding ordinary palace maids and eunuchs can offend.

Pushing the cart to the palace gate, the guards guarding the palace gate saw Zhao Yindong and the first-class guards coming. I didn't even dare to check the box, but simply registered it and let it go.

……

……

"Your Majesty, we have already left the palace for a mile, you better come out quickly!"

In a corner outside the city, Zhao Yindong stopped and said to the wooden box on the line of the cart.

Squeak!

The lid of the wooden box was pushed open, and Chu Ran, dressed in casual clothes, got out of the box.

"Change all these clothes!"

Throwing out a few sets of clothes from the box, Chu Ran jumped off the cart.

That's what he came up with.

As an emperor, it is naturally inconvenient for him to show his head, but Xiao Dongzi is different.

As a eunuch beside the emperor, he naturally does things for the emperor. Under normal circumstances, no one dares to stop it.

And those two guards were two of the guards specially trained by the first emperor for Chu Ran.

The two are brothers, named Hao Hu and Hao Xiong. Of course, since the emperor is the true dragon emperor, ordinary people can't use dragons in their names, and it is estimated that it is in this way that these two people have this name.

The two were in their twenties, and Chu Ran was protected by Hao Hu, Hao Xiong and a group of guards when he was young.

As for the strength level of the two, even Chu Ran is not very clear. According to them, they don't even know what level they are.

Maybe this is the secret of the emperor in order to protect Chu Ran, no one knows what the strength of the guards around him is, so that people will be in awe.

"Your Majesty, is this okay? The minion always feels like his heart is bursting out. ”

Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Dongzi complained while changing his clothes.

Today, if the Queen Mother knows, she will inevitably be punished. This is still nothing to do with the emperor, if there is really anything wrong, his life will not be reported.

"What's the matter, hurry up and change your clothes, we have to rush back before the spoon."

Laughing and scolding, Chu Ran observed Xi Zhou.

This is a mile from the palace, on the corner of a three-story wooden building. There are no pedestrians passing by, and it is somewhat remote.

Soon, Zhao Yindong and the Hao brothers put on their clothes.

Chu Ran was dressed in a light blue robe made of satin, and he looked a little like the son of a wealthy family.

Although the silk on Zhao Yindong's body is a little worse, it is not something that the elders can afford to wear.

The Hao brothers were dressed more like Lian Jiazi, but under Chu Ran's special explanation, there was less evil in their eyes.

"Let's go over there and have a look!"

Seeing that the clothes were almost changed, Chu Ran looked at Xi Zhou and walked in one direction.

Listening to the voice, it should be more lively, and since it came out, Chu Ran naturally wanted to know more about the situation outside.

According to the previous memory, the entire Yanjing has an area of more than 20 miles in radius, except for the imperial palace.

In the real world, the city would be a little smaller. But after all, the Great Xia Kingdom is only a small country, and such an area can support many people.

"Baked cakes, hot baked cakes!"

"Roast mutton, good taste, the first ...... of Great Xia Yanjing"

"Fresh shallots, fresh shallots!"

When passing through a street, Chu Ran heard the sound of selling on both sides of the street, which was so lively.

Of course, the hawkers are all vendors with stalls lining the streets. On both sides of the road, there are many shops, doing their own business.

There was an endless stream of people on the street, and Chu Ran saw that most of them were dressed in ordinary cloth clothes, and occasionally a few young people in silk and satin were holding folding fans in their hands. He also walked very lightly, and he looked proud.

Chu Ran noticed that most of the people on the street had smiles on their faces. There are also a few people who are in a hurry, and their steps are not slow, presumably there is something important.

There aren't many ancient cars connected to the TV!

Looking at the appearance on the street, Chu Ran nodded secretly.

Let's Jean! Get out of the way!

At this moment, a carriage came in the distance, not slow, and the coachman on the carriage shouted loudly, looking so imposing.

"Protect the Emperor...... Young Master Chu. ”

Looking at the posture on the opposite side, Zhao Yindong's face sank, and he hurriedly said to Hao Hu and Hao Xiong.
