Chapter 314: Tung Wing Street

Lilac said, "Uncle Da hated Su Tu, but he hated the first emperor even more, and he was unwilling to surrender to Da Li from the bottom of his heart. He is wise and calm, and he should not hit a stone with an egg and rebel in the Dali Dynasty.

"He has left a legacy overseas, perhaps just to keep a back hand. In the future, I will go overseas again, go there to lay down a piece of the world, and become the emperor there. Just in case, I still have to keep a son here to carry on the lineage."

Ding Zhuang said blankly, "He still wants to go overseas? Overseas poor can't afford to eat, so why bother to suffer. It's a good rich life, but why bother?"

Lilac wants to say, how can the bird know the ambition of the bird?

It's hard to explain.

She said, "My cousin is an aspiring person, and he thinks differently than we normally...... This is known only to the three of us, and we must not spread it out, and we must not ask him......

After the discussion, it was time for dinner, and they all went to the main courtyard.

Ding Li worked hard and didn't come out for dinner.

Tang was distressed that his son ran to call him, but he didn't even open the door.

And they were discussing the plan for tomorrow.

Ding Zhao and Ding Liren are going to give gifts to the Xun family and Shangfeng, and Ding Zhi and his wife are going to see the house. He also asked Steward Li to take Li's tent to the dental shop to see if there were suitable shops and fields.

Lilac shouted to go to Jiulu Silk Embroidery Pavilion, and at noon she had to eat roast duck and meat in Mingyue Building on Changshun West Street.

Mingyue Building's roast duck and meat fire are famous in Dali.

Of course, Lilac's real purpose is not Jiulu Silk Embroidery Pavilion and Mingyue Tower, but Yinfeng Street, where she was transferred, and Princess Dongyang's Mansion on Dongrong Street.

Tung Wing Street is behind Changshun East Street.

She couldn't enter the princess's mansion, and she didn't want to go in. I just thought about it for so many years, and I wanted to see what it was like from afar.

If there is a suitable shop on Changshun Street, she wants to buy a shop and open a study.

Dingfu is in the northwest, closer to Changshun Street in the central area, go there first, and then go to Yinfeng Street in the south after dinner.

As for whether to go to the princess's mansion or to Puguang Temple first, Lilac made an ideological struggle and chose the princess's mansion.

That's what she started thinking about the day she was taken away.

Ten and a half years later, she also thought about it for ten and a half years.

Ding Zhuang originally wanted to accompany his second son and his wife to see the house, but he was not worried about his granddaughter. discussed, "Granddaughter, I'll go with you another day."

Lilac pouted, "No, I'm anxious to eat roast duck."

Ding Zhuang hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I'll accompany my granddaughter." He puffed out his eyes and said to Ding Zhi, "I can only see it tomorrow, I can't buy it, and I have to nod my head to agree to buy it."

Ding Zhi was unwilling, "The shopping mall is like a battlefield, and after this village, there is no such shop."

He didn't want his father to follow him to see it, and he didn't want his father to help him get his ideas. My father is a blacksmith, where does he know business.

Ding Zhao said, "Dad, I have been in business for so long, and I can't afford to lose money when I buy a house and a shop."

After eating, everyone went to the main room to talk.

Ding Xiang called Ding Zhi aside and asked quietly, "Second uncle, I heard that there is a reclining Buddha statue in Central South Province that is the size of half a mountain, have you ever seen it?"

Ding Xiang didn't dare to ask the well-informed Dong Yiqi, he was too smart and knew that he had too many things.

Ding Zhuang and Ding Zhao have never been to the south at all, so they won't know.

I won't ask Master Mingyuan, what I can find out from others, ask him about the waste of resources.

Ding Zhi was very happy that his niece took the initiative to talk to him.

After thinking about it, he said, "Half of the mountain is so big, and the big Buddha that is still lying on it, I have never seen it. I'll go to Zhongnan again in the future and ask the people there."

Lilac was disappointed. I had to ask Xun Qiandai, he likes to travel, he must know.

The next day, the sky was drizzling.

Before dawn, Ding Lichun went to the barracks.

After breakfast, except for the hard-working Ding Lilai, the whole family came to the outer courtyard together.

There is only one carriage and one mule cart at home, which is used by Ding Zhuang and a few people.

Now that their family is an "official family", their father-in-law and daughter-in-law cannot sit in the same car. Ding Zhuang and Changsui

Wang drove a carriage, and Zhang, Lilac, Luo, and He would drive a mule cart.

Ding Zhao's father and son and Ding Zhi and his wife went out to "take a taxi".

The two cars headed towards Changshun Street.

After walking for more than half an hour, I arrived at the west entrance of Changshun West Street at the beginning of noon.

Several people got out of the car, and the rain had stopped.

Dongshun Street is the second most prosperous street in Beijing, paved with bluestone slabs, a wide road that can run ten horse-drawn carriages in parallel, shops on both sides, and the highest building has five floors.

They are all Daiwa powder walls or blue brick walls, with colorful silk lanterns hanging outside, and open restaurants, silver buildings, dim sum shops, pawnshops, studies, green buildings, etc.

The tallest five-storey building is the Green Building, called "Yifang Building".

There are no hawkers on the side of the road, and it looks very tall.

Lilac didn't have the heart to go to the shop, so she hurriedly walked down the street. Passing by a shop that is not open, the door is marked with the word "for sale".

Lilac thought, tomorrow let people go to the tooth shop to ask, even if it is expensive, buy it quickly, and the bookstore should belong to itself.

They came to the crossroads.

Directly in front is Changshun East Street, and the intersection is the slightly narrower Furong Lane.

There is a tall archway in front of the right side of Furong Road, with the book "Tung Wing Street" on it. The protruding roof there is a blue tile, layered on top of each other, and it is magnificent.

Lilac pointed to Tung Wing Street and said, "I just heard that there are princesses and county kings living in Tung Wing Street. Let's go to the street corner and see what the princess's mansion and the county king's mansion look like."

She has already found out that there are only two families on Huarong Street, one is Princess Dongyang and the other is King Rongjun.

Zhang hurriedly stopped, "Don't go, those nobles can't afford to mess with them."

Ding Zhuang also wanted to see and understand, and said, "Let's just look at the street corner, and don't provoke them. Look, aren't there a lot of people there?"

As he spoke, he took the lead in walking there, still singing, "In order to save Li Lang from his homeland, who expected to be the champion in the red list......

Don't dare to sing loudly, hum quietly.

Because of the relationship between "The Female Concubine", this grandfather is not very interested in the princes and nobles, and the most interested is the princess and the concubine.

Lilac pulled Zhang to follow, and several subordinates walked behind.

When they came to the entrance of Dongrong Street, several people stood down and looked inside.

There are only two courtyards inside, all of which are green tiles, light red courtyard walls, red doors, cornices and corners in the wall, red flowers and willow green, and you can't see the edge at a glance.

This place is full of wealth and filth.

The gate was far away, and I could only see the yellow copper nails of the vermilion gate, but I couldn't see how many doors, what color the door knocker was, and how many copper nails there were.

I don't know which is the Dongyang Princess Mansion and which is the Rongjun Palace.

In ancient times, there were strict hierarchies, and these things were different if they were not the same as the ranks.

The biggest difference is the door knocker, the royal palace is yellow, and the princess's palace is green.

There are a small number of pedestrians walking in front of the door, and they are very respectful.

No matter how bold Ding Zhuang was, he didn't dare to walk in.

Suddenly, a dozen horseback riders and two carriages came from far and near, and the horsemen brandished whips and shouted at the passers-by on both sides.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way......"
