Chapter 101 Nanjing

How prosperous is the land of gold powder in the Six Dynasties, Zhang Xuan had a concept before, and he thought that it was almost the same as Yangzhou, before coming to Yangzhou, but before he was in Nanjing, he felt that Nanjing was very different from Yangzhou.

Zhang Xuan took a boat from the Yangtze River to a large river.

This river can't be said to be a small river, but when put together with the Yangtze River, it is a small river. Zhang Xuan asked the boatman, and it seemed that there was a name, called the Three Forks River.

However, in Zhang Xuan's view, it is the moat of the outer city of Nanjing.

From the boat, you can see that the city wall seems to be a Wolong circling, just on the east side of Zhang Xuan, parallel to this river.

There are a few villages on both sides of this small river from time to time, and even though there is some depression along the way, there are also smoke and smoke together, and the further south you go, the denser the population becomes.

The boats gradually increased, but after all, Zhang Xuan was a big man, there were ships in front of him, and there were ships guarding the back, and the boats in the river avoided on both sides, so that Zhang Xuan's boat went first, but there were more and more boats, even if the ships on both sides avoided it, Zhang Xuan's boat couldn't go fast for a while.

Zhang Xuan focused his attention on the city wall in the distance.

Zhang Xuan looked at the past with a clairvoyant mirror, the outer city wall of Nanjing, many places are covered with bricks, passing by several city gates along the way, the city gates are covered with bricks near the city gates, and there are several storey city towers on it, even behind the ordinary female wall, you can vaguely see some iron color.

Come to think of it, it's artillery or something.

It's just that I don't know if it's going to be able to be used in the long run.

Boats are getting slower and slower, and there are alleys along the river on either side. Ordinary awning boats are everywhere, and Zhang Xuan looked at it from the boat, as if he felt that he could step on the awning boat and walk to the shore.

This kind of energy of jamming the ship gave Zhang Xuan a familiar sense of intimacy, which made him recall the feeling of being blocked to death at the beginning, but everything in the future life can no longer be recalled, even if he felt very unhappy at the time, it is also a sweet experience at the moment.

"Husband, look, what is that?" Luo Yujiao pointed to the west and said.

Zhang Xuan looked over, only to see a tower seemed to be standing in the clouds, the sun was shining on it, Ye Ye was shining, golden and brilliant, Zhang Xuan looked over, only felt that the strong light was dazzling, and he had to cover it with his hands. It took a while to get used to the bright light and take a closer look. But seeing that it was a Chinese-style pagoda, Zhang Xuan didn't see how many layers there were clearly, but he clearly felt that outside the pagoda, the glaze of the same color changed with the white clouds in the sky, and the halo emitted a different light.

made Zhang Xuan, a person who had never believed in Buddhism, think of the beautiful scenery of Buddha for a while.

"This is the Great Pagoda." Dong Xiaowan's voice was still cold: "It was built by Chengzu for his mother, and it is the most beautiful scenery in Jinling." When you come to Jinling, you have to watch. ”

Dong Xiaowan didn't know how to use it

What kind of wrist, on the contrary, has a good relationship with Luo Yujiao, Luo Yujiao didn't say anything when she saw Dong Xiaowan, which was equivalent to acquiescence.

Luo Yujiao is not an ordinary woman, she is decisive in major matters, and she is no less than ordinary generals, but the attitude of a little daughter, and the various thoughts between women are far less than Dong Xiaowan, Dong Xiaowan has not used some skills, Luo Yujiao is commensurate with Dong Xiaowan's sisters.

Of course, in the past few days, Zhang Xuan has been entangled with Luo Yujiao every day, and he is very innocent with Dong Xiaowan.

"Chinese antiques, Yongle porcelain?" Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered something and said.

Dong Xiaowan glanced at Zhang Xuan in some surprise and said, "What the master said is appropriate. ”

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, this sentence was not what Zhang Xuan thought by himself, and he had vaguely seen it somewhere, which was in the introduction of this great pagoda.

"General," He Hutou said, "the ship in front can't go, should we go ashore, the boatman said that the front is the treasure gate." We can enter the city directly from the Jubao Gate. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "It's okay. Luo Yujiao, who was obsessively looking at Dabao Enta, said: "Let's go, let's come and see it when I have time." ”

Luo Yujiao said: "Okay, you have to remember, take me to the tower when you have time." ”

The group changed to a small boat, and after going ashore, they saw people coming to greet them before they arrived at Jubaomen. is also an acquaintance of Zhang Xuan, that is Zhang Pu.

Zhang Pu was dressed in a red official robe, Zhang Xuan didn't know how many products it was, he saw Zhang Xuan, and immediately saluted and said, "Meet Commander Zhang." ”

"Why should the third brother be like this." Zhang Xuan said: "You and my brother, why do you need to be formal. I just don't know what happened to the sudden call to me this time? ”

Zhang Pu's face changed slightly, and then returned to normal, but he didn't hide it from Zhang Xuan's eyes. He said: "This is not the place to speak, I have prepared a sedan chair, and please speak on the road." ”

Zhang Xuan saw several official sedan chairs from a distance and said, "Let's sit in a sedan chair for the female dependents, I just want to take a look at this Nanjing City." ”

After the group was arranged, Zhang Xuan's heart became even more hesitant, and he couldn't guess it for a while. He could only keep this doubt in his heart for a while, and then his attention was drawn to everything in front of him.

Zhang Xuan and his entourage walked across the Changgan Bridge, which was named after Changganli, and truly entered the urban area of Nanjing.

He saw a city gate.

It's the Treasure Gate.

Just this city gate made Zhang Xuan shudder.

Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, this city gate is just a relatively grand building, but in Zhang Xuan's eyes, Zhang Xuan's first thought is how to capture it.

But Zhang Xuan just gave up this idea after a quick look.

The whole Jubaomen, there is an urn city, between each urn city, there are jack gates, Zhang Xuan looks at the texture seems to be an iron gate, plus the city head, dense firearms, can not be said to be insurmountable, but want to conquer a city gate, as long as the defenders are strong-willed, not to die thousands of people, it is absolutely impossible.

And it's 10,000 soldiers.

Zhang Xuan only had a total of how many soldiers, and he couldn't bear the loss of hitting this city gate at all.

"Fortunately, Nanjing surrendered." Zhang Xuan sighed in his heart: "Otherwise, I really don't know what to do." ”

As soon as I entered the city of Nanjing, the bustling sound came out, and a breath of life came to my face, countless men and women were on the street, and the surrounding shops were also opened. Even if it can't be talked about, there are definitely a lot of people.

"When, when, when." Zhang Pu ordered someone to beat the guard of honor out, and forcibly opened a way out of the flow of people.

Zhang Xuan rode on a horse and looked over, and found that most of the people in Nanjing City were wearing silk, their faces were also good, and some women appeared from time to time, but they fled far away when they heard the sound of gongs.

The street is not wide, but there are many sheds on both sides of the street that extend into the middle of the road, and the space of the street is forced to stand a lot, so it is crowded.

Zhang Xuan looked at the side of the road and said, "No one cares about this?" ”

Zhang Pu said: "There are too many people in the city of Nanjing, and it is not a day or two, some people want to clean up, some officials say, for the sake of harming the people's food and clothing, how to endure it, and no one cares, this has been for decades, these sheds, almost all of them are immovable property, and here is still the most prosperous Qinhuai in the whole Nanjing City, and naturally there are people standing on the road." ”

"This is Qin Huai?" Zhang Xuan was slightly surprised and said, "Isn't Qin Huai on the river?" ”

Zhang Pu smiled slightly and said: "The general doesn't know, the reason why Qinhuai is prosperous is because the Gongyuan is located, and scholars of all sizes gather, so it is prosperous, as for the Qinhuai River, it is because it is prosperous by the Gongyuan, not the other way around." ”

For a moment, Zhang Xuan had a feeling of collapse, the so-called Qinhuai River was actually a red light district near the school, which could be passed down through the ages, and when he thought of the hotels of many schools in later generations, he was also rounded. made Zhang Xuan suddenly have a feeling that he didn't know what to say.

As for the literati who were nostalgic for the Qinhuai River, it was natural for Zhang Xuan to let the students who jumped over the wall and go out all night hang together.

The so-called sense of sacredness suddenly disappeared.

The road is not very far, but even if there is a guard of honor to open the road, it is also stop-and-go, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but ask: "Is Nanjing so lively?" ”

Zhang Pu said: "No, martial law has been imposed for several days before, and it was only released today, and I think it is because of this that there are so many people." ”

Immediately, Zhang Pu explained to Zhang Xuan the actions of the army after it went down to Nanjing.
