Chapter 348: Ganzhou City
The sun gradually moved westward, and after the horses' hooves were blowing, everyone finally arrived at Ganzhou City in the evening.
Sun Yiyue fell asleep in the car, woke up in a daze, and heard the sound of talking outside the carriage.
Curiously, she lifted the curtain to see that outside was Thirteen talking to the gate guards, and when she looked up, there was a majestic but dilapidated earthen wall.
Accustomed to seeing the richness and magnificence of Shangjing, and even more accustomed to the indestructible north and south walls of the imperial city, at first glance at this earthen city wall, Sun Yiyue was surprised not to speak.
Zhao Fuling glanced at her, looked out with her gaze, and said after a while: "Most of the cities in the world are such earthen walls, and there are only a few that can be cast like the imperial city with manpower and financial resources. ”
If they were all solid blue brick and limestone structures, how could there be a case of attacking a city by digging the ground at night in ancient times?
Sun Yiyue didn't quite understand, but was shocked.
She felt the rough wind and sand passing outside, covered her mouth and nose and said, "Do you want to get off the carriage?" ”
"No, you don't." Zhao Fuling retracted her gaze and sat upright, "Advanced city." ”
Sure enough, Thirteen soon rode back and led the chariot and horse slowly into the city.
The streets in Ganzhou City are wide, but they are more cold and desolate than Sun Yiyue imagined.
She originally thought that although the people in the world were divided into three, six, nine and so on, it was just the difference between princes and nobles and ordinary people. That is, no matter how bad the people's lives are, how bad can they be?
But at this moment, when she looked at the poorly dressed and even some unclothed children on the street, her expression was stunned.
Zhao Fuling didn't say anything, just glanced at it a few times, and then withdrew her gaze.
This is just a portrayal of the people living at the bottom.
Although the city of Ganzhou is desolate and remote, it is not only the poor, but also the rich and noble. And at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are not necessarily no such unclothed people, but most of the ladies in the deep boudoir are difficult to travel far, so they rarely see it with their own eyes.
The carriage drove through the street, and soon stopped outside the gate of a mansion in the east of the city.
Sensing that the carriage had stopped, Sun Yiyue lifted the curtain again.
Seeing the high-gate compound that was not too unfamiliar, Sun Yiyue unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly jumped out of the car, and turned her head to look at the surrounding environment.
This should be a gathering place for the wealthy in the city, and there are no shops or vendors around, and there are not even many pedestrians. Gray walls and brown tiles, blue sky and green trees, even if you haven't entered the door yet, you can only peek through the wall, but you can also see that the environment inside is not bad.
Sun Yiyue looked at the word "Du Mansion" on the plaque, and whispered to Zhao Fuling: "This is where the Seven Princes stayed?" ”
Zhao Fuling also glanced at the plaque, and said with a slight sigh: "Not only his, it should be his people and horses gathered here." ”
This mansion covers a large area, and it looks very large, and the small courtyards divided into it must have seven, if not eight. Li Jingmo does not often live in this city, and he is not keen on things outside his body, and eighty percent of the house is bought for him by others.
But even so, it is estimated that the people who live there are only some relatives and friends, and he may not be able to live once in ten days and half a month.
Just as he was guessing like this, Li Jingmo dismounted and walked over, looked at Zhao Ling's voice, and said in a gentle tone: "Ah Ling, you and Miss Sun and others will live here in the future." ”
Zhao Fuling smiled and was about to speak, when she suddenly heard a excited female voice from the house.
"Senior brother, are you really back?"
