Since ancient times, Luoyang has been a key transportation and military fortress in the world. The so-called Heyang Dingding Land is located in the Central Plains and responds to the Quartet.
After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he chose another capital site in Luoyang and established a new capital.

Li Shidao came to Chang'an, and he didn't pay attention to the major events in the rivers and lakes along the way, but now he can hear others talk about it, and he knows that the world has recently entered the most lively prologue stage.
In the fourteenth year of the Great Cause of Sui, Emperor Yang died at the hands of Yu Wenhua. All the heroes supported the Yang kings and grandsons as puppets, the princes of the world rose together, the melee was endless, the mountains and rivers were broken, although most of the world followed the name of the Sui Yang Emperor, but in fact, the Great Sui Dynasty has existed in name only.
Yu culture and according to Jiangdu, can not deter the heroes, winter, forced by the situation is to lead troops north, "Pushan Gong" Li Mi led the Wagang army to fight hard, defeated Yu culture and, the prestige of the great. Li Mi took the power of the great victory, all the small groups of rebels surrendered, and then took Xiangyang, and there was a momentum of covering the universe, so he divided the troops to the east, blocking the vanguard troops of Luoyang Wang Shichong, and then took advantage of the emptiness of Luoyang, with tens of thousands of elite soldiers, near the west of the river to force the eastern capital, its sharp edge, unstoppable, Wang Shichong is difficult to make an inch, if it is not possible to break the deadlock with the momentum of thunder, overnight, Luoyang will be broken.
The world's heroes, each on the wall, Guanzhong Li valve also took the opportunity to show his power, is to sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight.
The situation is ****, the war famine radiates in all directions at the speed of the plague, the swords and soldiers are together, and the rogues from all over the country are in all directions, except for the area under the rule of the Lingnan Song Dynasty, the people everywhere are precarious, living in dire straits.
The situation in the world is so chaotic, and the rivers and lakes are also turbulent.
Many masters who have been hidden for many years have entered the WTO, and countless young players with talents and talents complement each other. In addition to the young masters who belonged to the four major gates, the Turks outside the Saiwai and the northeastern Goryeo had masters who entered the Central Plains. In addition, there is news that the concubine Xuan of Cihang Jingzhai is carrying He's Bi into the world to practice and is about to go to the Eastern Capital, attracting countless people to compete to go.
The rivers and lakes that have been calm for decades are about to set off monstrous waves, a boundless sea of blood, and officially enter a new chapter of endless strife and bloodshed.
There is also a piece of news that also surprised Li Shidao, the two teenagers with the legendary miraculous "Secret of Eternal Life" showed their traces and were chased and killed all the way, and they were expected to be good, these two people must be Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, they came out to wander the rivers and lakes but didn't hear the news of Fu Junwu, and they didn't know what happened to her?
All in all, Luoyang, the eastern capital, has become the focus of the people of the world, the four major lords and various forces have sent people to go, and the martial arts people have launched actions, and Luoyang is bound to become the center of a new round of storms.
"Luoyang is so lively, it's impossible for my Song family not to participate...... Well, let's go to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to see the excitement. Li Shidao remembered that there would be a very big excitement to see in Luoyang, and his heart suddenly became interested, and after stopping in Chang'an for a day, he took a boat and went straight to Luoyang.
Along the way, he used the method of "casting the Dao with demons" several times to increase his merits, and finally absorbed all the miscellaneous qi in the relics, and the rest was the Yuan Jing.
On this day, he got off the boat and changed to walking, strolling through the heavenly street that runs through the southern gate of the imperial city and the Dingding gate, the willow-lined street is lined with thousands of pavilions, the bell tower and drum tower look at each other in the distance, and the eyes are all inns, leather shops, bamboo pole shops, wool shops, grocery stores, paper shops, cotton shops, fresh fruit shops, etc.
The prosperity of Luoyang is also famous all over the world.
Trees are planted on both sides of the avenue, shops are lined up, and between the alleys, each has its own road, and the vertical and horizontal ten streets that run through the major city gates are staggered and orderly.
The streets are full of pedestrians like carp, and the cars and sedans are endless, and it is a lively situation in a bustling metropolis.
Li Shidao passed through the gatehouse engraved with the words "Luoyang Fang", and behind it was Luoshui, which traverses the east and west of Luoyang.
At this time, there were three people walking in front of him, and it just so happened that he knew all three of them, it was Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and Bai Fenghan.
Seeing Li Shidao's figure, a hint of joy flashed in Kou Zhong's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Isn't this Brother Song, ha, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Song Shidao smiled slightly, and then asked, "You two brothers came out to explore the rivers and lakes, what about Fu Jun and Miss Fu?"
Kou Zhong said with a smile: "My mother has something to do to see her master, and Ling Shao and I were idle and bored, so we came out, but I didn't expect it...... Hey. ”
Song Shidao nodded and said, "I see." ”
Xu Ziling said at this time: "I'll introduce to you, this one is Brother Song of Song Valve, and this one is ......."
As he was talking, he suddenly paused, obviously just remembering that Song Valve is the most repulsive to foreigners, if you say that this person is a master of the Turkic side, it is difficult to guarantee that the two will not fight.
Li Shidao knew the concerns in his heart, so he said directly: "No need to introduce, I saw him in the palace at the beginning, and the young master from the Turks, Ba Fenghan, right." ”
"Yes, it's Ba Fenghan. Ba Fenghan nodded.
Kou Zhong's eyes rolled, and he suddenly asked, "Brother Song is also here for He's Bi?"
Li Shidao shook his head: "I don't have much interest in He's Bi, I came here purely to see the excitement." ”
Kou Zhong and the three of them couldn't figure out his true intention for a while, so they walked to Manqing Courtyard together.
At this time, the Manqing Courtyard had already gathered the figures of the various gate valve forces and martial arts people, despite this, there were still many good-looking characters who entered the courtyard one after another, so it can be said that something big must happen here.
Manqing Courtyard is worthy of being the largest green building in Luoyang, and the design is even more distinctive, not to mention the grand scale, there is a large fish pond at the core of the courtyard, which adds an exciting vitality to this space. The pond is surrounded by a spacious open space, and whether there are people performing in the garden or dueling, people from the four wings can watch it at the same time.
Kou Zhong opened his mouth and said: "Brother Song may not know when he first came, there will be two major events in the Manqing Courtyard tonight, both civil and military!"
"Oh?"
"The text is that the world-famous talented woman Shang Xiufang will perform a song and dance here, and the martial arts will be presided over by Wang Bo, the former master of Changbai Mountain, and the two foreign masters will fight to the death. ”
"Extraterrestrial masters?"
Li Shidao was a little puzzled, after many years, except for the very important ones, the rest of the plots were a little unclear.
Xu Ziling said: "One of them is Qu Ao, and the other is ...... who doesn't know the details."
Ba Fenghan's eyes showed a different color, and he said in a deep voice: "It must be Fu Qian, the son of Fu Yun, the king of Tuyuhun, I have heard of this person when I was in the northern Xinjiang, he is good at spears, and he is brave on the battlefield, only he has the courage and qualifications to challenge Qu Ao." ”
"Qu Ao and Fu Qian? That's quite lively. Li Shidao nodded, but he cared more about the talented girl Shang Xiufang mentioned earlier, it is said that this woman's singing voice is like an incredible realm, comparable to Shi Qingxuan, I don't know that her singing voice seems to be able to make her enter the Xuan Realm again.
As the four people entered the courtyard, the eyes suddenly opened up, the whole hall was extremely empty, the span of the house was more than 20 zhang, the whole hall was arranged extremely luxuriously and gorgeously, it seemed to be joyful, and the guests came and went endlessly.
"Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, Bafeng Han... The young man next to them...... Song Valve's people?"
"How could the Song Master Dao of the Lingnan Song Valve come together with the Turkic masters?"
The identities of the people who were invited by Wang Bo to enter the Manqing Courtyard were not simple, and they all knew about the influential figures in the rivers and lakes and the forces of the various gates. So from the moment the four of them entered the hospital, someone immediately recognized them, and almost everyone's eyes were cast on the moment Li Shidao and the four of them entered the hospital.
———— Woooooooo
A subordinate quickly ran over, "The little one has seen the second young master, the second master and the third young lady are upstairs, please go over with your friends." ”
"I see. Li Shidao turned his head to look at the three people next to him, "The three of you will go with me." ”
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling nodded in response, but Bai Fenghan shook his head, "My identity is not appropriate to meet with the others of Song Valve, so I won't go." ”
Li Shidao was not reluctant, "Okay, I'll let someone vacate a side room for you, and you can rest there." ”
Only then did Ba Fenghan respond.
At that moment, Song Shidao took Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling under the leadership of his subordinates to the wing occupied by Song Valve......
