Chapter 298: A chance encounter with a historical celebrity
Princess Pingyang refused to let Zhao Ci come to Chang'an, first, the Guanzhong area was covered with heavy snow.
Zhao Ci was inconvenient to travel at this time, it was cold in the past few days, and it was very sinful to come to Chang'an from Honghou Kingdom, more than 2,000 miles away.
The second is that he doesn't want her to be in danger, and Chang'an seems to be particularly safe.
The most terrifying thing is the open and secret struggle between those powerful people, and those older dignitaries and dignitaries are very shrewd.
Princess Pingyang also hoped that Liu Zhang could be sent to serve in other places, away from Chang'an, a place of right and wrong.
Chang'an is very prosperous, but it gives people a very depressing feeling.
Princess Pingyang will wait for the weather to warm up, and she will return to Yangxin.
It was her fiefdom, and that place was far away from Chang'an.
Under the persuasion of Princess Pingyang and Xiahou Po, Liu Zhang and Liu Zhengchen decided not to rent a house.
Princess Binh Duong also does not charge any fees, allowing them to make Princess Binh Duong's Mansion their home.
In the afternoon, Liu Zhang went for a walk on the streets of Chang'an City.
Take a good look at the prosperity of Chang'an, which is also the first time he has come to Chang'an since he crossed.
He walked down the street and saw very few pedestrians on the street.
Probably due to the cold weather, I met the patrol guards of the castle during the walk.
Since it is daytime, people can move freely around Chang'an City.
At night, there is a curfew in the city, and you are not allowed to walk around outside unless there are special circumstances.
Liu Zhang saw that at intervals on both sides of the street, there would be garbage cans made of bamboo.
The garbage cans are half a person high, and there are some rules of conduct written on the street bulletin boards.
In particular, littering is not allowed, and violators are punishable by imprisonment or 30 lashes.
Punishment is tattooing on the face, which is a humiliating punishment.
If a pedestrian urinates on the ground with a dog or other livestock, dispose of it immediately.
Otherwise, you will be flogged, and you must keep your pets and livestock under control.
Avoid hurting passers-by and don't allow random graffiti on the wall.
Liu Zhang stood on the bulletin board and read these rules, and the rules were listed in great detail.
But the penalty is a bit heavy, and there is one more. If you encounter a bad man, you must act bravely.
Others will be punished if they don't help, and rewarded if they help.
This is similar to the law of the Qin Dynasty, if an old man falls, he has to be helped.
There is no need to worry about the old man who falls down to blackmail people for money, and the laws of the Han Dynasty also have relevant provisions.
The shops on both sides of the street are still open, but not many customers are shopping.
Liu Zhang wanted to buy some Chang'an specialties for his family and buy some jewelry.
Then use drones to give them away, and there are really a lot of good things sold in Chang'an.
The price is also very expensive, Liu Zhang couldn't help but shake his head lightly, it is really a place where every inch of land is valuable.
But he was not short of money, and unknowingly came to a store that sold cosmetics.
He looked up and saw a long wooden sign hanging next to the door of the shop, which read Yanran Building.
Liu Zhang looked at the store, Yanran Building was a shop selling cosmetics and accessories.
Liu Zhang was struggling with whether to go in and take a look at the cosmetics of this era.
It's not as good as the cosmetics in his subspace watch, and he can open a store here to sell goods.
There must be a powerful person behind him, if Liu Zhengchen accompanies him.
He wouldn't have hesitated so much, Liu Zhengchen went to the palace with Princess Pingyang.
Liu Zhang still decided to buy a few pieces of jewelry for the newly acquired maidservants, which was a small reward for them.
At this moment, a pair of young men and women walked over, and they looked at Liu Zhang with some hesitation.
"Honghou, are you here to buy rouge and ornaments for your wife?"
The young man recognized Liu Zhang, who had recently made a name for himself in Chang'an.
Liu Zhang looked at the man who asked him, and estimated that the other party was in his twenties.
The woman beside him was young and beautiful, and the two of them must be husband and wife.
"Honghou may not know us, in Xia Sima Qian, the words are long. This is under Xiaojun Liu Yi, the word Jun Qian. ”
Xiaojun is the husband's name for his wife, and he can also be called Xijun.
At this time, Sima Qian was not yet famous, and his father was currently Taishi Ling.
Liu Yi is Li Guang's granddaughter, and she is one year younger than Sima Qian.
"My name is Liu Zhang, and I am fortunate to know you."
Liu Zhang bowed to the two of them, which was the lightest courtesy.
Sima Qian returned the salute to Liu Zhang, and today his wife brought it out to shop.
During this time, Sima Qian followed his father to sort out the collected historical materials.
He is a history buff, and his greatest wish is to record real historical events on bamboo slips.
Passed down to future generations, due to the cold weather during this time, he could only stay in Chang'an.
Every time I go out to collect historical information, I take my wife with me.
Liu Yi doesn't look young and beautiful, but she is skilled.
Follow Sima Qian's side and protect his safety at all times.
Liu Yi is also good at riding and shooting, and he can also use various weapons skillfully.
And she is also very talented, Liu Yi's father is called Liu Zhenting.
is also a very talented person, Liu Yi learned to ride and shoot with his grandfather since he was a child, and has practiced kung fu since he was a child.
So don't look at Liu Yi to be tall and a little thin, just think that she is a bully.
Liu Zhang only glanced at Liu Yi a little, and he could be sure that she had practiced kung fu.
"I'm just idle, and I came here unconsciously, and I don't know if I should go in or not."
Liu Zhang was hesitating to go in just now, most of the people sold here are women who like cosmetics and accessories.
In addition to the jewelry in this store, which can make him look good, those cosmetics are very damaging to the body.
Some cosmetics contain lead and mercury, which can indeed have a beautifying effect.
Liu Zhang finally decided to go in and have a look and buy some jewelry for his family.
There are many women who come to the store to buy cosmetics and accessories, and only a few men come with their wives.
They saw Liu Zhang walk in, and some people knew him.
He didn't have a woman by his side, and it felt like he was a pity now.
They stepped forward to greet Liu Zhang, and some asked him if he had any high-end cosmetics.
Some people also asked him if he had a watch, and these noblewomen heard that the cosmetics and watches were from the Red Marquis.
The most important thing in their hands is money, and I hope Liu Zhang can tell them where to sell it.
They can spend money to buy it, and there are more women than men in this store.
These ladies like to go out shopping, and I heard that Yanran has recently bought a batch of good goods.
The nobility circle was very well-informed, and Liu Zhang did not know them.
"As for the makeup you mentioned, some of them are sold in Xiao County, Pei County. As for watches, they are not for sale. ”
Liu Zhang is right, these watches are made by craftsmen.
After making it, he gave it away, and he didn't plan to sell it in large quantities.
Liu Zhang was surrounded by these people, which made him feel a little nervous.
He's not a businessman, and he's given away some good things before.
It's just a normal exchange of courtesies, and these ladies have their own circles.
They exchange information with each other through intra-circle communication.
They decided to send someone to Honghou Kingdom to inquire first, and then go to other counties to buy it.
At this moment, a young and beautiful woman walked in from outside the store.
The noble lady surrounding Liu Zhang walked towards her, and Liu Zhang raised his eyes to look over.
The young woman was tall and fair-skinned, and her temperament was noble and elegant.
"The one who came in just now is the wife of the prince of Nanyue."
Sima Qian whispered to Liu Zhang that Zhao Yingqi, the prince of Nanyue, had been by Liu Che's side for many years.
Zhao Ying Qiming came to Chang'an to study and be an official on the surface, but in fact he was a hostage.
Liu Zhang deduced from historical time that since he was the wife of the prince of Nanyue.
That is Zhao Yingqi is undoubtedly in about two years, Zhao Yingqi will return to Nanyue to succeed to the throne.
I didn't expect to come out and meet a random person, or a historical celebrity.
Either they are of prominent status, and most of the noblewomen in this shop are the wives of princes and kings and the sons of princes with different surnames.
Whether it is a royal clan prince, or a prince with a different surname.
They will all send their sons to Chang'an to study in various schools in Chang'an.
Or Lang Zhong, who served as the emperor's side, was actually a hostage.
This was a means of controlling those princes and princes, and some of their families were in Chang'an.
Those princes and princes did not dare to behave abnormally in various places, and they also cared about the safety of their families.
Liu Zhang thought that his son would be more than ten years old in the future.
will be like these people, must stay in Chang'an.
If he dares to disagree with the court, the court will kill his son at the first time.
is creating public opinion pressure, for their own selfishness.
Completely disregarding the safety of his own family is very unpopular.
This was a means of the emperor's imperial technique, and Zhao Hu sent Zhao Yingqi to Chang'an.
It was also a helpless move, and the South Vietnamese Kingdom did not dare to fall out with the imperial court.
Liu Zhang knew that Zhao Yingqi's original partner was still in Nanyue, and Sima Qian said that the woman who came in was Zhao Yingqi's wife.
must not be the status of a flat wife, this woman is a secret agent arranged by Zhao Yingqi's side.
The identity is similar to Liu Zhang's mother, according to historical records, this woman's surname is 樛.
Zhao is a native of Handan, and Zhao Yingqi likes him very much.
The demise of the South Vietnamese Kingdom also has a certain relationship with this woman.
