The section of Yangshui River through Yangcheng is wide and gentle, before entering the city, it is artificially divided into three parts, the main stream passes through the city, the tributaries go around the city in the south and the north, the three merge into one again outside the east city, rush to the east, set river transportation, irrigation, flood discharge, city defense in one.

And as early as the beginning of the city, the terrain on both sides of the Yangshui River into the city was artificially raised, and built a stone embankment, for hundreds of years has always been as strong as ever, no matter if you meet once in a hundred years, or a flood once in a thousand years, in Yangdu can not turn a little waves.

At the same time, the middle of the Yangdu city is higher than the two sides, and the west is higher than the east, combined with the underground drainage channels that extend in all directions, for more than 300 years since the city was built, the huge Yangdu has not only been broken by floods, but also has not even waterlogged, which is a miracle.

This is one of the seven merits of the Holy Emperor, "One Capital, Two Roads, Three Cities, Four Wheels, Five Learnings, Six Arts, and Seven Great Talents".

On the bank of the Yangshui River in the north city of Yangdu, there is a huge hexagonal tower with red walls, green tiles, covering an area of several acres, eight floors and twelve zhang high, which is the second floor of the world that is famous in China.

On the fourth floor of the second floor of the world, in a private room near the river, three sons in brocade clothes are raising their glasses and drinking, and these three are the three people who participated in the incense party last night in the Liuxiang Pavilion.

After killing the wine in the cup, Gongzi A smiled at Gongzi C and said, "Brother C might as well say it directly, as long as I can help, brother, I will definitely do it." ”

"Alas," Gongzi C sighed lightly, "It's not like last night." ”

"Last night, you mean the 'flying thief' Li Xunhuan? What does this have to do with Brother C?"

Because last night's incident was too big, the three factories, two guards and one army were all dispatched, and in the end, Li Xunhuan was carrying a person with a large bag of property on his back, and ran over the city wall, what is even more annoying is that before that guy escaped over the city wall, he also carried a person on the street of Yangdu for a long time, and no one could stop him.

It's been a long time since there has been such a lively event in Yangdu? A native of Yangdu tells you: "It's been 20 years! Yangdu hasn't been so lively in 20 years." ”

Therefore, Li Xunhuan's name resounded in Yangdu that night, and early this morning, he was named a "flying prostitute thief" by a good deed.

"Alas" Gongzi Bing sighed again: "Then Li Xunhuan naturally has nothing to do with me, but the prince has something to do with me." ”

"Prince?" Gongzi A was stunned when he heard this, and then asked in surprise: "It's difficult for your C family to take refuge in the prince?!"

"Hey, Brother A, don't laugh, what kind of prince is our family going to, even if we want to vote, we have to be able to see the prince. Gongzi said with a bitter face.

Gongzi Jia rolled his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say that it had something to do with the prince?

Childe C was taken aback by Childe A's words, and even Childe B on the side stopped eating and drinking and looked at Childe C in a daze.

Although they have gone their separate ways on the surface, the three families still have not forgotten the friendship and promises of their ancestors, and they will always stand together at every critical moment and deal with it together.

"Brother A, don't talk nonsense! Even if our C family eats the bear's heart and leopard gall, we won't dare to go against His Royal Highness the Prince. Childe howled.

"Then what are you doing it for? You can't tell yourself, so don't blame us for guessing!" Saying that, Gongzi A turned his head and glanced at Gongzi B next to him, and Gongzi B immediately came back to his senses, nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes." ”

Gongzi C looked at the two of them, and said helplessly: "It's all for my eldest brother." ”

"Your eldest brother, Bingruida, didn't he drink wind and eat sand in Zhenxiguan? What does this have to do with him?" Gongzijia said disdainfully, when Bingruida was in Yangdu, he relied on his handsome kung fu to be good, but he didn't steal the limelight of Gongzijia, and he never forgot it.

"Alas~" Gongzi C sighed and then spoke eloquently.

After the tea effort.

"You said that the Duke of Loulan is going to come to Yangdu to marry the prince?!" Gongzi A questioned, obviously not believing Gongzi C's words.

"Brother A, why am I lying to you. Gongzi said with a bitter face.

Gongzi Jia raised his glass and drank lightly: "Brother C, it's not that I don't believe you, a few months ago, the lord of Loulan rejected the prince's request to complete the marriage on the pretext that the princess was young, how long did it take for him to come to the door by himself?

It is no wonder that Gongzi A suspects that their A family is rooted in patrolling the yamen, and the news is the most well-informed, and only the three factories together can win half of the world.

Seeing this, Gongzi C simply leaned into Gongzi A's ear and muttered.

Gongzi B on the side just wanted to come over and listen, but Gongzi A's pupils suddenly dilated, and he turned to B and C and said, "Two, you have to take the first step in the next day, and we will meet again another day." After saying that, he wanted to push the door and leave.

Gongzi C hurriedly shouted: "Brother A, the prince ......"

"Brother C, the prince was seriously injured yesterday, and after being diagnosed by the imperial doctor, although he has no worries about his life, he has not woken up yet. Gongzi A's voice fell lightly into Gongzi C's ears, and his figure had long since disappeared outside the door.

"Brother C...... "Seeing that Gongzi A left like this, Gongzi B was full of doubts.

Without waiting for Gongzi B to speak, Gongzi C preemptively arched his hand and said: "Brother B, there is also an urgent matter below, so I will take the first step, the money has been paid, you eat slowly here." With that, he snatched the door and left.

At this time, west of Yangdu, only dozens of miles away from Yangdu, on the Yangshui River, a large vermilion building boat was going downstream.

On the top floor of the boat, a thin girl leans on the railing, looking at the scenery of the riverbank, the girl's white clothes are like snow, her hair is like silk, her skin is like clotted fat, and she can be broken by blowing; her body is like a boneless, her skirt is blown by the wind, and she holds it in her hand; her eyes are bright and her teeth are bright, her nose and willow eyebrows are high; her country is beautiful and fragrant, and she is captivating the country and the city. It is the princess of Tianxiang of the Loulan Kingdom - Wu Yaqian.

"Princess, this Great Zhou Kingdom is prosperous. ”

Accompanying Princess Tianxiang, there were two men, a man and a woman, and it was the woman who spoke, Princess Tianxiang's personal palace maid Bai Man.

"Yes, we have traveled thousands of miles east, and all the way there are places with fertile water and soil and lush vegetation, which is enviable. Princess Tianxiang said leisurely, her voice soft and deep.

At this time, the young man in the armor standing behind Princess Tianxiang said: "Have you ever noticed that although the water and soil are fertile on this road, it is sparsely populated, and the people of Zhou are allowed to be abandoned in this great land. The young man was full of reluctance and grief, and this person was the leader of Princess Tianxiang's guards, Helian Honghua.

"That's why my father married me to the prince of Zhou. When Princess Tianxiang heard this, she sighed and shook her head, her voice faint.

Although the voice was small, it had already been heard by Helian Honghua, and he gritted his teeth with a grim face and said, "The princess is actually ...... us."

Princess Tianxiang hurriedly interrupted Helian Honghua and said: "Brother Helian don't say it, you and I both know that this is the best choice, and now I only hope that the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom can fulfill his promise and give me a piece of land with abundant water and grass in Loulan." ”

Hearing Princess Tianxiang's words, Helian Honghua lowered his head deeply, with respect, shame, and unwillingness.
