Chapter 82: Ten Thousand Years of Chang'an!
Chang'an looked back at the pile of embroidery, and the top of the mountain opened a thousand doors. As soon as the concubine rode the red dust, no one knew that it was lychee...... This poem must not be appropriate here. However, under the glow of the sunset from afar, the first-line city wall that seemed to come from the ancient times, Xia Hongsheng's heart remembered for no reason, but it was such a poem. Chang'an in the middle of summer must also be unbearable hot, and the teahouse restaurant must be crowded with men who take refuge from the heat and take refuge. I don't know if there are children playing naked in the water everywhere on the side of the stream next to the ditch. In the distance, the mountains are silent, and compared to the sultry heat of the city, Lishan, which is covered by thick shade, is obviously much cooler and much lonelier. There is no Huaqing Pond there, and there is no Yang Yuhuan and Li Longji. Xia Hongsheng himself didn't know why, after spanning thousands of years, he looked at Chang'an in the dreams of countless descendants for the first time, but what he remembered was the time when it began to grow old. Maybe it's too much of a pity, isn't it? Guoheng died with weakness, only the Han and Tang dynasties died with strength, it was too a pity to die, too heavy, the descendants of the dead sighed with emotion, and the descendants of the dead had countless memories.
The influence of the Tang Dynasty was huge, and even after the fall of the Tang Dynasty, it has been influencing the world. In later generations, in the Song Dynasty, "Tang" had become a synonym for China in the southeastern overseas countries. From the Song Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, all over the world, especially in Southeast Asia, China or things related to China have always been referred to as "Tang". Not only is "Tang" used as a synonym for the land of "China", but also Chinese are called "Tang people", Chinese surnames are "Tang surnames", Chinese clothing is "Tang clothes", Chinese merchant ships are called "Tang ships" or "Tang ships", and Chinese goods resold from sea ships are called "Tang goods", and even the modern "Chinese" is also called "Tang language" by overseas countries during the Song Dynasty. Chinese who stay overseas for one year and do not return are called "Zhubo", while foreigners who do not return after a year in China are called "Zhutang". In modern times, some overseas Chinese still call themselves "China", and the Chinese settlements in overseas cities are called "Chinatowns", which have lasted for thousands of years.
So strong, so far-reaching.
I don't know if my arrival can have an impact on this timeline, and use the advanced ideas and concepts and technologies I brought from the afterlife to create a Tang Dynasty that will last forever, and continue this prosperity forever until the day the earth falls?!
Xia Hongsheng's heart twitched and beat wildly, and for no reason, he was full of magnificent pride.
Chang'an, Chang'an...... 10,000 years of Chang'an!
The Suzaku Street, which runs through the north and south, divides Chang'an City into two symmetrical parts from east to west, with Wannian County in the east and Chang'an County in the west, and a commercial district in the east and west, called East City and West City. There are 11 main streets in the north and south, and 14 main streets in the east and west, which divide the residential area into 110 squares neatly, and its shape is similar to a Go board...... In Xia Hongsheng's mind, it seems that the words spoken by the tour guide when he traveled to Xi'an in the later life, and all the information about the city in his mind is being carefully recalled by Xia Hongsheng.
The carriage approached, and the towering city wall showed its majesty and oppression, Xia Hongsheng insisted on getting down and walking in the carriage, walked closer, and put his hand tightly on the cold city bricks. It is as if I can feel that time and space are shrinking, hundreds, thousands of years, there have been and will be stories in front of us-the city wall that is raised and held up, maybe a hundred years later, someone will do the same thing, hold the same place; The posture of the forest that you see when you raise your eyes may have been seen at the same angle thousands of years later; A thousand years later, the broken trunk of the tree that brushed the side of the city wall grew from the crack into an ancient tree that has traveled through time, bringing with it the time that remains.
And Xia Hongsheng just suddenly remembered that he was once in the future, standing in the same place and doing the same actions.
But time, there are 1,000 years and 388 years in a trance!
"Brother Xia, are you unhappy?" A voice came from behind him, Xu Hui looked worried, and looked at Xia Hongsheng suspiciously.
Xia Hongsheng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he turned around, his face was already replaced by a smile: "It's not that I'm unhappy, it's just a little ...... Shock. ”
"Chang'an City is my capital city, it is magnificent, and it is inevitable that my junior brother will come for the first time." Xu Qixian also stepped forward: "Let's go, the road is tired, arrive early and rest early, come to the day for a long time, and take you to Chang'an for my brother." Ouch, my brother's waist is about to break! ”
Xia Hongsheng laughed and entered the city!
Qu Tutong took out the mansion and people rushed to Chang'an a few days ago to inform him, and he had already cleaned it out at this moment, and he also sent a few waiting maids and servants from Jiang Guogong's mansion, waiting for Xia Hongsheng to come over. The crowd prepared to part, and the three carriages were each going in different directions.
"Virtuous nephew, let's go back and have a good rest first, I think my majesty will summon you soon." Xu Xiaode said to Xia Hongsheng: "I will let Qi Xian go with you, so that he can lead you to the door in the future." The old man is now on standby in this capital, and if the virtuous nephew has any matter, he can come to the old man. ”
"Uncle Xie Xu is worried." Xia Hongsheng bowed to Xu Xiaode very respectfully.
Xu Xiaode nodded, saluted the waiter again, and said, "This waiter, you have worked hard all the way. ”
Xia Hongsheng also followed Xu Xiaode's example and gave a salute to the waiter.
"Haha, Lord Xu is polite, thanks to Lord Xu's care, the slave is about to return to the palace, Lord Xu, Lord Xia, I will leave here." The chamberlain replied, and then got back into the carriage with the new saber and passed along Suzaku Street in the direction of the Imperial City.
After sending the waiter away, Xu Xiaode explained a few more words, and then left by himself, before leaving, Xu Hui also beckoned to Xia Hongsheng, saying that he wanted to find a day to play with Xia Hongsheng. Xu Qixian and Xia Hongsheng saw Xu Xiaode's carriage leave, and then boarded their carriage again, and walked to the house that Qu Tutong temporarily lent to Xia Hongsheng to live under the leadership of those sergeants.
"Qi Yong, that house is...... If I just live in it, I won't cause trouble for Uncle Qutu, right? Xia Hongsheng stretched out his head and asked Qi Yong, who was riding a horse next to him.
Qi Yong clasped his fists on the horse and saluted, and then replied: "Don't worry, Childe, it is a small mansion purchased by the general before His Majesty gave the Jianguo Mansion, and it is usually uninhabited, only the general occasionally goes alone to go to be quiet for a few days, since the general became the governor of Luozhou, but it may not have been inhabited for a long time." A few days ago, the general had sent someone to report quickly, and now he has swept it out. ”
Xia Hongsheng nodded, and everyone walked all the way, stopping before entering the courtyard. Xia Hong got out of the carriage and took a look, heh, is this called a small house?
There was a small guy standing at the door, as soon as he saw the carriage stop, he hurriedly greeted him, Xia Hongsheng and Xu Qixian jumped out of the carriage, and the little guy immediately bowed and saluted: "Lord Qi, on the orders of the grandfather, this courtyard has been cleaned up, please come in!" ”
Walking into the courtyard with the little guy, the area inside was really large, and those sergeants also went into the courtyard, and after saluting Xia Hongsheng, Xia Hongsheng also let them disperse and have a good rest.
"Sir, tea has been served in the vestibule, the little one will go and let the cook clean up the food, presumably the sirry has been tired all the way, please wait a while, the maid has already gone to boil water, and the sirl will soon be able to bathe and rest." The little guy said respectfully to Xia Hongsheng in the past.
Xia Hongsheng nodded: "Well, thank you, it's hard work." ”
In the final analysis, these people were all sent by Qu Tutong from his own Guogong Mansion, and Xia Hongsheng was just a guest, so Qu Tutong's face still had to be given, and the people he sent couldn't be arrogant, not to mention, now Xia Hongsheng has not completely completed his identity transformation from a poor family to a nobleman, and he can't put on a show for those subordinates.
After everyone went to work, Xia Hongsheng and Xu Qixian sat down in the vestibule, looking at the tea inside, but it was brewed, and they couldn't help but be happy. This shows that the market of new tea has gone out of Luoyang to Chang'an, he Xia Hongsheng and Mingxiangju half of the shares, the better the business, the more dividends he has, how not to make Xia Hongsheng happy?
"Senior brother, now you are also a lord, after you face the saint, if you want to come to your majesty, it is time to build a mansion for you in your fiefdom, fortunately, Jingyang is not far from Chang'an, you can come to see more in the future, brother, alas, for brother to go to the Hongwen Pavilion this time......" Xu Qixian drank a few sips of tea, shook his head and sighed and said to Xia Hongsheng: "To be honest, for brother, I think it's better to be in Luanzhou Academy." ”
Xia Hongsheng knew what kind of place Hongwen Pavilion was, and Xu Qixian must also know that it was either the children of the emperor's relatives and relatives, or the children of the nobles, and it was a place where princes and princesses gathered.
"Brother Wei knows what Uncle means, it's just ......" Xu Qixian shook his head, didn't say this anymore, changed the topic, and said to Xia Hongsheng: "Senior brother, since you have arrived in Chang'an, you should visit Master Yan if you have free time these days, if it drags on for a long time, it is easy to settle down, and Master Yan may not be happy in his heart, Senior Brother needs to wait for His Majesty to summon him these days, and after the face saint, you and I will visit Master Yan again." ”
"It's nature." Xia Hongsheng nodded.
The two chatted in the vestibule, Xu Qixian gave Xia Hongsheng a general description of the situation in Chang'an City, and when he heard Xu Qixian talk about Hu City in Chang'an City, he was immediately very interested and asked Xu Qixian to take him to have a look. The two worked all the way, ate food, and were led by the maid to take a bath, Xia Hongsheng didn't want the maid to wait for the bath, so he hurriedly rinsed it and went back to rest.
The first night of entering Chang'an, it was such a bland past.
