The old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and the fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March.

Zheng Chaoming did not go down instantly, but drove north.

At this time, Yangzhou is not Yangzhou after a thousand years, and the beautiful scenery of the Slender West Lake does not know where it is, although it has experienced the war between the North and the South, Yangzhou located in a corner of the south has made great progress, but it is still insufficient compared to the important towns in the north.

Only when the Anshi Rebellion broke out and a large number of people fled the war and moved south, then Yangzhou would develop into a big city comparable to Luoyang, Chang'an.

"It is worthy of being a place where Emperor Yang Guangdu of Sui lingered."

Zheng Chaoming drove, and it seemed that the terroir of this Jiangdu was very different from that of Ninghu Nanzhou, and when he arrived here, the humanistic atmosphere was heavier.

At this time, the tall and majestic Jiangdu City is in sight, and the pedestrians on the roadside are not only peddlers and pawns, but also talented and beautiful people.

They went out in groups to play, and the servants carried utensils and other things, so it was very comfortable.

Cherry was dressed as a man, riding a tall horse and following the side of the carriage, looking at the comfortable life of everyone with a look of envy.

She has been lonely since she was a child, and she knows how to cherish it.

Qinghong poked her head out of the carriage and saw the painting boat in the river, so she said in surprise: "Look over there." ”

"What a big ship." Cherry exclaimed.

Not only the big boats, but also the small boats in the canal are connected. Not far from the pier, it was bustling and lively.

Zheng Chaoming looked at the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, which will become the main artery of this land in the next thousand years.

Thinking about Emperor Sui being arranged at will, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The Sui Dynasty died as much as this river, and it has been thousands of miles away so far." If there is no water temple dragon boat matter, Gongyu will not have much merit. ”

Sigh~

The sound of horses' hooves stopped, and a group of knights stopped their horses.

"What a guts!"

A knight in a beautiful suit was holding a horsewhip, and he was in his twenties, and he looked arrogant and scolded Zheng Chaoming.

The light red complexion changed greatly, and then I thought of Zheng Chaoming's poems, and I was a little taboo.

Seeing this, Cherry quietly reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword at his waist, just waiting for the other party to make a move, and he would inevitably cut it under the horse.

Zheng Chaoming sneered, quite disapproving, this is not five thousand years later, how can he still be banned.

"Why, you're not convinced!"

Seeing this, the knight couldn't suppress his anger.

At this time, another brocade-clothed man among the knights spoke: "Cui Huai, don't be rude. ”

"Your Highness!" Even though Cui Huai was unwilling in his heart, he didn't dare to show anything, just because the person in front of him was Li Chengqi, the king of the Song Dynasty, who was also Situ, Yongzhou Mu, Yangzhou Governor, and Prince.

"Your Highness?" Zheng Chaoming's ears were very bright, even though the voice called Cui Huai was very small, but he couldn't help but look at this highness, this was the first time he had met the prince, and he was a little curious.

This His Royal Highness looks like he is in his twenties, handsome, but he can compare with Lu Lingfeng, needless to say, his clothes are noble and gorgeous, his crotch is also a good horse, and he is surrounded by knights with good looks.

He himself was not as spirited as he was, nor was he as cold as Lu Lingfeng, but his words were gentle and he looked very kind.

Li Chengqi gives people the feeling of humility, and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty all know that he is respectful and self-controlled, does not make friends in vain, and does not want to be political, this is his personality.

is really this character, so that he can die a good death.

At this time, when he met Zheng Chaoming, he admired it very much, he didn't dare to involve the government, he could only be intoxicated with music, and the rest of the poems and books were naturally good at it.

After more than a month out of Beijing, it was rare to meet Zheng Chaoming, a cultural person, and naturally had a good impression.

Li Chengqi said kindly to Zheng Chaoming: "Don't be surprised by this little brother, Cui Huai doesn't have any bad intentions." ”

Zheng Chaoming nodded with a smile and said, "Since Brother Tai said so, this matter has been revealed." ”

"Okay." Li Chengqi looked at Zheng Chaoming and his party again, and asked: "Brother Tai is very literate, but this poem will be less said in the future." ”

Zheng Chaoming is not a person who doesn't know what to do, and the princes of the people have spoken, so naturally they can't help but give face, so they said: "It's just a feeling, pay attention next time." ”

Li Chengqi looked at the Grand Canal, which stretched to the sky, where ships came and went, and couldn't help but recall Zheng Chaoming's poems, at least the second line was impeccable.

"My name is Li Xian, Brother Tai is not from Yangzhou, right?"

Zheng Chaoming replied: "In Xia Zheng Chaoming, yes, I came from Nanzhou and wanted to go to Luoyang, passing by here. ”

Li Chengqi's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Coincidentally, I will also go to Luoyang in the next few days." ”

When Cui Huai heard this, his face was nervous, and he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, don't leak it." ”

Li Chengqi was stunned for a moment, and said unhappily: "Why did you expose my identity again." He turned to look at Zheng Chaoming and said, "Brother Tai doesn't need to be polite." ”

After saying this, he found that Zheng Chaoming had no intention of saluting at all, but instead threw the reins and rushed forward.

Cui Huai didn't expect Zheng Chaoming to be so bold, so he was angry, so he said: "Your Highness, this person is too unreasonable, it is better to inform the local assassin history and take him down." ”

Li Chengqi shook his head and said, "Don't make any extraneous branches, I only brought my eyes and ears with me when I visited Yangzhou this time." ”

Cui Huai was helpless, thinking about the embarrassing situation of his Royal Highness, and couldn't help but sigh.

Li Chengqi also shook his head, this day is difficult.

Think about him in the Song Palace, Changshi and Sima are the princesses, the princes, and the prince's palace, such a key position is also controlled by the prince.

The only henchman is this Cui Huai, although he was born in the Boling Cui family, but he is only a concubine, and he is also anxious, embarrassed by heavy responsibilities, and the huge palace is difficult to explain.

It is said that he is indisputable, who can refuse that position since ancient times, but he Li Chengqi, the eldest son of Emperor Ruizong, and the rightful heir to the crown prince's position, had to give up the position in hand, otherwise the lessons from the future are not far away, think about the ancestors Li Jiancheng, Li Chengqian, Li, not to mention, the prince of the Tang Dynasty is not good.

It's a pity that he doesn't know that if he is the eldest son in the Ming Dynasty, he will die happily.

Zheng Chaoming didn't know Li Chengqi's feelings, he drove the car and finally entered Jiangdu City.

Jiangdu is Shangzhou, which is much more prosperous than Ninghu.

On both sides of the market, there are stalls selling everything, and people of all kinds of food and food are dazzled.

Seeing the cherry swallowed her saliva, she said to Zheng Chaoming: "Zheng Lang, it's better to buy something to eat first." ”

Zheng Chaoming shook his head and said, "Let's find the best inn to live in first, and there will be delicious food later." ”

"The best inn?" A little beggar on the side came to the carriage when he heard this, stretched out his palm, and said, "Your honor, I know where the best inn is." ”

Zheng Chaoming casually threw out two big coins.

The little beggar happily put the coin in his arms and hid it closely, and then said: "The nobles walked along this street, and they could see a huge archway, which said Yunjinglou, which is the best inn in the city." ”

"Good!" Zheng Chaoming lost three more big coins, and then hurried forward.

After a short walk, Yunjinglou arrived.

Behind the archway, Yunjinglou is three floors high, and there are two small houses standing at the gate, which are welcoming guests.

"Do you stay in a hotel or eat?" The little guy hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down to take the reins.

"Do you have a room?" Zheng Chaoming jumped out of the carriage and helped Qinghong down.

"Yes, guest officer." The little guy smiled: "It's just that you need to see the nobleman's official certificate when you go to the room." ”

Zheng Chaoming was surprised: "There is still this rule? ”

Cherry said unhappily: "This is really the best inn, and the hotel has to be identified." ”

The little maid said with a smile: "The nobles are more responsible, and this upper room is divided into the number of heaven, the earth, and the person." ”

"The Tianzi number can only live in more than five products, the address number can have an official body, and the human number is prepared for merchants."

Zheng Chaoming took out the official certificate and said, "At my level, it seems that I can't enjoy the Tianzi number." ”

"Your Excellency, please."

followed the little guy to the backyard, and it was a three-story building built by the lake, Zheng Chaoming could only live on the second floor and chose a suite.

"It's really expensive here, it costs 300 yuan a day, and in Nanzhou, it's enough to rent a house for a month."

Qinghong sighed with emotion, I don't know how expensive money is if I don't go out.

The same goes for cherries, which are distressing to spend money.

Zheng Chaoming doesn't care, one is that the money comes quickly, and the other is that he really has no concept of spending ancient money. If you let him spend 30,000 yuan for one night in modern times, it will definitely be distressing.

When I came to the window, I pushed open the window, and there were a few painting boats on the lake, and I could faintly hear the singing.

"Tonight, let's go to the painting boat too!"

"Okay!" Light Red and Cherry suddenly became happy.

"Now, eat first!"
