Chapter 11: Arrival in Luoyang

On the second day, it was almost noon, and the group could already see the outline of Luoyang. Yang Wei can be said to be the first time to see an ancient city of this scale, it is like a giant beast lying prone on the plain, giving people a sense of vicissitudes of life and simplicity, and the atmosphere is superb.

In fact, Yang Wei went to many large and medium-sized cities in his previous life, even large foreign cities such as New York. However, the feeling of this huge ancient city is completely different.

The tall and heavy city walls and the wide moat gave Yang Wei a rather shocking feeling. Zhuo County, where Yang Wei is located, is actually a big county seat, but the city wall of the county town is not comparable to the city wall of Yanjing at all, and there is no moat outside the county.

When I arrived in Luoyang, I was shocked by Yanjing. On the other hand, Lan Yu and Zhao Hu didn't feel anything, obviously it wasn't the first time they came.

Soon, everyone came to Luoyang City, and the guards saw such a large group of people coming, but they didn't react, and this kind of battle also scared and frightened those bandits who had never seen much of the world.

When he arrived at the city, Yang Kui said to Yang Wei: "Young master, we won't enter the city, so we'll go back directly." ”

As he spoke, he called the scholar assigned by Yang Song to Yang Wei and said, "Yang Yan, the young master will be all taken care of by you in the future, don't let the master down." ”

I saw that this scholar was about the same age as Yang Wei, with a thin body, and a shrewd and capable appearance. After more than a month, Yang Wei only noticed such a person at this time.

There was work on the road that was done by the subordinates, and it was not the turn of this little scholar to do it, and Yang Wei had never read and written on the road, and he was given poems. So it wasn't until today that Yang Wei noticed that this person should have been the closest person by his side.

However, from today onwards, this child who is about the same age as himself will live in Luoyang for a short period of time.

Yang Wei nodded at Yang Kui and said, "Be careful all the way." ”

Yang Yan only brought his and the young master's change of clothes and some common things, and those cars also returned with Yang Kui. Yang Wei didn't dare to pull those things to the Taishi Mansion together.

In this way, Yang Wei, Yang Yan, Lan Yu and Huwei Dart Bureau entered Yanjing Luoyang after checking and paying the entry tax.

When they entered the urn city, they saw a middle-aged man with a goatee under his chin who looked like a housekeeper and came to their group and said to Lan Yu: "Young Master Lan, Your Royal Highness knows that you are returning to Luoyang today, and tonight you specially prepared a good banquet for your son in Cuizhuxuan, and asked your son to enjoy the light." ”

As he spoke, he took out an invitation card from his bosom and presented it respectfully.

Lan Yu took the invitation and said, "Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, Jade will definitely go on time." The middle-aged man arched his hand at the blue jade and turned to leave.

Yang Wei couldn't help frowning secretly, if he had the opportunity in the future, he would have to persuade Lan Yu, and it was best not to get involved in the struggle for imperial power.

After being involved, it is one step of heaven and one step of hell, no matter which emperor will never be soft on those who covet the throne and his henchmen, Yang Wei does not think that Lan Yu is the kind of person who can turn his hands into clouds and his hands into rain.

Lan Yu smiled at Yang Wei and said, "My house is very close to the Taishi Mansion, so I'll accompany the virtuous brother to the Taishi Mansion." ”

After entering the city, Zhao Hu said goodbye to several people and went on an errand. Lan Yu accompanied Yang Wei and the others to the Taishi Mansion, only to see that the streets of Luoyang were wide, with a weaving flow of people, busy traffic, and people coming and going in the shops on the streets, showing the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the big city.

A few people walked to a wide street, but it was unusual, there were no pedestrians on the street.

Lan Yu saw that Yang Wei's face was full of doubts, and knew what was strange in his heart, and said: "This street is facing the main gate of the palace, and on both sides of the street are the mansions of the first-class masters, and no one dares to make noise here.

Because it is facing the Imperial Palace, no one will pass by, so it seems relatively quiet. Originally, this street did not have a name, but because all the people living on this street were Yipin Daren, many people called it Yipin Street. ”

Yang Wei nodded, relieved in his heart. The two walked forward along Yipin Street, and after walking for a while, the mansions on the street were all huge, a few points larger than Yang Wei's mansions.

The two came to a large gate, and above the gate hung a gold-lettered plaque with the words "Taishifu" written by the emperor's imperial pen.

Lan Yu said: "This is it, my house is in the first two mansions." My father is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, you only need to report your name to find me when you go to the Blue Mansion.

I'm looking forward to the virtuous brother coming to the house, ah, by the way, I'm going to find a few of my friends in a few days, let's have a meal together and get to know each other, and the virtuous brother wants to appreciate it. ”

Yang Wei hurriedly said: "Certainly, definitely." ”

Lan Yu said goodbye and left, and Yang Wei stepped forward to knock on the copper ring on the gate of the Taishi's Mansion. As soon as he put down his hand, the side door "creaked" and opened a crack in the door.

A gray-haired head came out of the crack in the door, and when I looked left and right, I saw two children standing in front of the door. With a puzzled look in his eyes, he asked, "Excuse me, who is the son?"

He saw that Yang Wei was dressed well, and he thought that he was the son of a dignitary, and he didn't dare to slack off.

Yang Wei said: "Taishi Zhang is in the lower uncle and came to visit. ”

The old man's face was not very good-looking, and he said, "Son, your surname, I'll go in and report." ”

Yang Wei didn't care, knowing that he thought he was here to fight the autumn breeze or rely on a little kinship to ask someone to do something, he was funny, he was such an old child, what kind of autumn breeze could he come, what could he do to ask the Taishi Mansion, and replied: "Yang Wei of Zhuo County." ”

The old man nodded and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and report." ”

The side door slammed shut, and the sound was latched.

After a while, the side door opened again with a "squeak", and the old man came out with a smile on his face and said, "Childe, please follow the old slave inside." ”

After Yang Wei entered the side door, he turned around and bolted the door bolt, and walked a few steps forward to lead the way sideways.

After Yang Wei bypassed the shadow wall, he saw a huge courtyard, covered with bluestone, and tall trees and flowers were planted next to the courtyard wall. A few people walked around the living room and towards the corridor on the left. I saw carved beams and painted buildings, and each house was full of exquisite ability, and even every brick and tile was decorated with patterns and patterns.

The scenery along the way is pleasant, sometimes see small bridges and flowing water, bamboo forests are entangled, and there are rockery lotus ponds dotted in the meantime. Yang Wei now really has the tendency to transform into Grandma Liu, and along the way, he looked around and was amazed in his heart. While admiring, I saw that the old man stopped, and it turned out that he had arrived.

The old man said: "The old man is waiting for the son in the study, the son please come in, and the old slave will take this little brother to clean up the yard first." ”

Yang Wei nodded and said, "I'm tired." The old man didn't dare to say anything.

Yang Wei stepped into the door, only to see an old man with gray hair, shimmering spirits, thin face, wearing a casual robe, giving people a refreshing feeling, sitting on the main seat and smiling at him.

Zhang Zhi asked casually, "How is Changqing doing lately?"

Yang Wei hurriedly replied: "Thank you uncle for your inquiry, my father is in good health, and he wrote a letter for his nephew to present to his uncle." With that, he respectfully took out the letter and handed it to Zhang Zhi.

Zhang Zhi opened the letter and nodded and smiled as he read it. At the end, he also boasted: "Good boy." ”

After that, the two gossiped about each other. After a long time, he said to Yang Wei: "Tonight, prepare a family banquet and let your two uncles come back to meet and get acquainted." ”

After speaking, he shouted outside the room, "Someone!"

Someone came in immediately, and Zhang Zhi instructed his servant to take Yang Wei to the courtyard arranged for him to rest. After Yang Wei retreated, he went to his yard to rest without mentioning it.

In the evening, the subordinate led Yang Wei to the back garden. It's almost summer now, and the flowers in the garden have begun to bloom. There is a small lake in the center of the garden, and after passing through the nine-curved corridor, you will come to the island in the middle of the lake.

There is a pavilion in the center of the island, and the family banquet is located in this pavilion, which has a unique atmosphere. Eight dead wind lamps were hung on the pillars of the pavilion to illuminate the surroundings.

Zhang Zhi was already sitting on the main seat, and there were two people sitting on either side. The person on the left is wearing a robe, with a well-proportioned figure, and a face that looks very heroic. The person on the right side was born with a tiger's back and a strong figure, but he was dressed in a short dress, and he looked like a person who practiced martial arts.

Yang Wei came over to greet him, and Zhang Zhi pointed to the person on the left and introduced: "This is your uncle, the current commander of the inner guard." He pointed to the person on the right and introduced: "This is your second uncle, the current commander of the Beijing camp." Yang Wei greeted the two separately.

Yang Wei muttered in his heart, this uncle is really enough to win the emperor's trust, if these two rebel, who else can stop them. Zhang Zhi joked: "Wei'er, do you know how happy I am today, do you know why?"

Yang Wei hurriedly said: "My grandson doesn't know. "Xindao, I know that I can't admit it, I have to pretend to be stupid when I should be stupid.

Zhang Zhi didn't mean to let him say it, and continued: "Because of what I have learned in this body, I finally have a successor. ”

As soon as these words came out, the two people next to them all lowered their heads in shame, a literary leader gave birth to two martial arts sons, can the two of them not be ashamed? However, they are both masters who have a headache as soon as they read, and there is no problem with literacy.

Zhang Zhi continued: "This is my first reason to be happy. The second reason is that Siyuan and I (Grandpa Yang Wei's words) used to get married. I said that if there is a man and a woman, they will be married.

However, I gave birth to a boy with him, now only your uncle has a daughter, and there is nothing in the second uncle's room, and when you have a coming-of-age ceremony, my Zhang family and your Yang family will form a family, and come to kiss and kiss. You have a mental preparation, I will take a letter of absence, tomorrow, and talk to your father. ”

Yang Wei said in his heart, I am a little child, you tell me this, if it is really a child, he knows what marriage is, and he thinks it is a meal.

The atmosphere of this family banquet was happy, but I didn't eat anything, just two chopsticks symbolizing the surname. Look at the two next to you, it's not very easy to let go of the old man by his side. Only the old man was in high spirits, drank two more glasses, and was helped down to rest, so the few people let go of eating indiscriminately, barely filled their stomachs, and went back to their rooms to rest.
