"At the beginning of the month, there were rumors that the fishermen near Xiadu caught a Da Cai who had lived for a thousand years in a lake, the size of a car, and this shaft liked to join in the fun, so he went to Xiadu with a few swingers who often mixed together, and when the lower officials found him and asked him to return to Chang'an, the shaft had already spent all the money and grain for a month, and there was not even a penny left."

Cai is a turtle, and it specifically refers to a huge turtle, so Da Cai is a particularly large turtle.

In rivers and lakes, such a big Cai can often be caught, which is a kind of auspiciousness.

"I was afraid that he would be hungry, so I gave him another two hundred dollars, which can save one of the two hundred dollars, and I can spend the rest of the month, which is ......what I have saved with great difficulty."

"But look at it, a few days ago, there were a few valuable copper lamps and a copper mirror in this house, but now they are gone."

"It must be that this shaft can't help but itch his hands, and he wants to go to cockfighting to play money, but two hundred dollars is not enough for the book, so he took this copper guy to exchange for money."

"It's not the first time this erector has done such a crazy and indulgent thing, it's really ......"

Xu Guanghan chattered endlessly, although he didn't dare to scold too much because of Liu He's affection, but his anger could be heard between the lines.

Liu He looked at the empty house, and many things suddenly understood.

When Bingji met Liu Aiji, he should already be an official of Bi Qianshi, with at least eight or nine thousand yuan of money and food per month, and he must have a lot of wealth.

It is not difficult to buy such a house.

And I'm afraid that even if the furnishings and utensils in this house are not valuable, they must be complete.

Now, it's empty, it's destitute.

I don't think I was a thief, but I was taken out and sold by this Liu Ill, and I lost.

Emperor Gao likes cockfighting, and this Liu Ai already likes cockfighting, and he really deserves to be the heir of the Han Dynasty - he is more like Emperor Gao than himself.

At this time, Guo Kai, who had been clasping his hands in front of his chest and leaning against the door to watch the excitement, laughed "rudimently".

The laughter grew louder and louder, and by the end of the day, I couldn't straighten my waist.

"Huh? Why is Guo Xia laughing? ”

"The owner of this house is really a wonderful person, so willful and casual, it's really funny, but it is the one who wants to laugh the most to make the two of you pounce."

"By the way, who is the owner of this house?"

"Guo Xia doesn't have to be anxious, I will naturally tell you if I find it." Liu He said to Xu Guanghan, who was still scolding, "Xu Yuanjun, where are you going to find him now, my time is short, he won't run to Xia Du again, right?" ”

Liu Yi already likes to go to Xia Du to mess around, Liu He knows it, and now he himself has more curiosity about Xia Du.

"Chu envoy rest assured, I don't know how many times I've looked for the erector, and I know all the cockfighting houses he frequents."

"Then I'll go find him now."

"Yui!"

Without extra words, Xu Guanghan took Liu He and the two of them and walked towards the north city of Chang'an City.

At this time, the sky was completely bright, and the entire Shangguanli had woken up, people came and went, cars came and went, and everyone was in a hurry.

Those who walked on foot were all dressed in neat robes, with colorful scarves around their waists, and sure enough, most of them were officials under 600 stones, and those who sat in the carriage were probably officials of higher rank.

On the way through Shangguanli, Liu He passed by a lot of "old places".

There is the Changyi Mansion that has not yet begun to be rebuilt, the majestic and cold General's Mansion, and the Jingzhao Yin, who is in charge of the core area of Chang'an......

When he was about to leave Shangguanli, Liu He also passed by the arsenal that was built on a high platform.

It is said that the armor hidden in this arsenal can be used to arm hundreds of thousands of troops.

Along the way, Liu He has gained a lot, the most important thing is to figure out the relative location of these important locations.

Especially the arsenal and the Great General's Mansion, Liu He didn't think that it was so close to Weiyang Palace.

Standing under the arsenal, Liu He could still hear the sound of Weiyang Palace announcing the time.

This information is very important, and only when it is intuitively remembered in his mind, when it is time for him to use it in the future, can Liu He make more accurate preparations.

After passing through Shang Guanli, he left Weiyang Palace behind him at the same time.

Xu Guanghan continued north along the front street of Shangguanli - although this street is named after Shangguanli, it is the main road through Chang'an City from north to south, with the back street in the south and the front street in the north, with 3,000 zhang.

[Han one zhang is about two meters four]

After walking the front street of Shangguanli, it took half an hour. After a few more turns, they finally entered the bustling Beicheng and Beichengguo, which the people of Chang'an collectively called Beichengguo.

"Chu envoy, there is Beicheng Guo in front."

Without Xu Guanghan's mouth, Liu He already felt the difference here, and was shocked by the prosperous scene in front of him at a glance.

Compared with the clean and orderly southern city, the order of the northern city is much more chaotic.

But people come and go, traffic is busy, shoulder to shoulder, and the river is endless......

On both sides of the crowded and cramped streets are the banners of many shops that Liu He has seen or not; Pedestrians on the road are wearing clothes of different materials and styles; If you look closely, there are even many people from the Western Regions with high eyebrows and deep eyes, blue eyes and blond hair......

This is the Chang'an of the Han people, this is the Chang'an of the Han Dynasty, this is the Chang'an of the Han Dynasty!

Compared with this messy, noisy, disorderly, and barbaric world, the neat, solemn, orderly, and moderate Weiyang Palace behind him pales in comparison.

It is also a good choice to be able to live here for the rest of your life.

Liu He wanted to sigh and express his heart, but he found that he was running out of words.

Only countless verses written by posterity have come out of my heart.

"Nine days open the palace, and all nations are crowned."

"Chang'an Avenue is even narrow and sloping, and the green cow and white horse are seven incense cars."

"Hundreds of thousands of houses are like a game of Go, and the twelfth street is like a vegetable garden."

……

Most of these sentences were not written in Chang'an at this time, but Liu He felt that it was not an exaggeration to describe Chang'an at this time.

When Liu He was immersed in a dream, Guo Kai, who had walked in Chang'an as a child, also sighed.

It's just that his exclamation is not so poetic, but it has a simple heroism and recognition.

"That's right, this is Dachang'an."

Da Chang'an is crude and straightforward, but it is very appropriate.

"Let's go, let's go find Liu's illness."

"No!"

At this time, the sun had risen high, the temperature was rising very quickly, and under the sun's illumination, the rich smell rushed straight to Liu He's nasal cavity.

The smell of the food, the smell of the brew, the rouge of the orchid woman, the smell of sweat of the short-clothed coolies, the smell of dust, the smell of livestock...... Mixed together, Liu He was a little dizzy.

Because there are many people, many carts, and many livestock...... From time to time, Liu He would be bumped into by someone coming from the opposite side, or stepped on by someone behind him......

On the contrary, Xu Guanghan and Guo Kai, because they have long been accustomed to such a crowded scene, are like flexible fish, walking through the crowd.

Liu He was a little excited, his eyes stared at Xu Guanghan in front of him, he was not afraid, he was just afraid of delaying more time, as for Guo Kai, he was very competent to stay by Liu He's side, helping him push away some people who were rampage from time to time.

……

After an arduous "trek", Liu He was finally not left behind, he followed Xu Guanghan closely, and finally crossed the busiest street and came to an alley with relatively few pedestrians.

The walls and gates between the northern city and the northern fortress are still there, but they are nothing more than during the day.

And this alley is between the outer city wall and the moat, and it is dozens of zhang long.

It is not so much an alley as a spontaneous bazaar, because the houses built on both sides of the alley are not houses at all, but crooked straw houses.

Standing at the mouth of the alley, Liu He immediately smelled the aroma of wine and heard a loud trumpet.

Liu He guessed that this should be the cockfighting liao - looking at the rough count, there are at least thirty or forty cockfighting liao, and the rest are simple wine shops.

Four more than 10,000 words are over!
