Chapter 3 Initial entry into Chang'an
Chang'an, the capital of the Great Qin, the real name is Xianyang, a thousand years ago, the Qin State was only one of the seven powerful countries at that time, and it was also a weak, remote one, harassed and bullied by neighboring countries for a long time, several times Xianyang City was in danger, the people suffered deeply, and then Xianyang was renamed Chang'an, meaning long-term stability. Until Qin Huangzheng ascended the throne, reformed and restructured, developed strength, and spent 300 years before and after, destroying other countries one by one, and unifying the world, north to Mobei, west to the Western Regions, south to Baiyue, east to the East China Sea, and the whole world, all of which are Qin soil.
Lin Ze looked at Uncle Wu, who looked proud in front of him, and his eyebrows flew and danced, and he didn't look like an old man at all, and silently complained, I know more than you, and I also know that Shang Ying's transformation method, Bai Qi Changping Battle Pit killed 400,000 soldiers...
Between the words, a majestic city appeared in front of Lin Ze's eyes, and the vision continued to impact his brain nerves, so that it was a little crashed.
Lin Ze looked at the city in front of him, more shocked than he imagined, the 50-meter-high city wall has two big characters "Chang'an" written on it, and there are 12 huge city gates.
Three are ordinary people lining up to enter and exit, three are ordinary warriors in and out, three are officials and their children in and out, and the last three are the entrances and exits of dignitaries, and the four places are distinct.
Even if there was a long queue at the ordinary entrance, no one dared to go to the gate of the city where there were no dignitaries, hundreds of soldiers wearing armor and holding Changge were on duty, and the evil aura all over their bodies was emanating.
Uncle Wu held the official guide in his hand, and easily entered the city from the entrance and exit of the official eunuch and his children almost without queuing.
Lin Ze looked out the window and saw the street like in the TV series, there was an endless stream of pedestrians on the road, but there was not too much shouting, and the whole street spread over, and there was no end in sight, so he couldn't help but sigh poetically "Chang'an City is really big".
Ahem, at first glance, I knew that I was a college student with no culture, and when I saw the sea, I improvised "The sea, you are all water" and sighed boringly.
It is forbidden to gallop unofficially in the city, that is, except for submitting official documents, urgent government affairs, and military affairs, no matter whether it is a noble or commoner, it is not allowed to gallop on horseback, which will be a while before the Lin Mansion, Uncle Wu smiled slightly when he heard it, and popularized the general knowledge with the little young master:
Chang'an City is known as "the east is rich in the west, the south is mixed in the north, and the imperial city is in the middle of the city", that is, the outer city is divided into four pieces, and the east city is mostly a wealthy mansion, and the people who live are also dignitaries, if it is not because of the noble status of the master mother, the Lin family may not have the ability to build a house in the east city;
Xicheng is mostly the house of some martial arts families and wealthy merchants, relatively dense, but also very prosperous, several famous gold caves are in Xicheng;
The houses in the south city are more dense, and most of them are populated by ordinary people, some small businessmen who are not rich enough, or some people from the government who do not have high positions.
And Beicheng is a place where some religions and nine streams are mixed, relatively chaotic, some people who beg for a living in the city but can't afford to buy a good house, some smugglers and sell coolies, and some people who have to hide in Chang'an City for various reasons.
Speaking of this, Uncle Wu couldn't help but remind Lin Ze: "If the young master usually wants to leave the mansion, Xicheng and Nancheng can go there, and it is relatively safe, but Beicheng must not set foot easily."
Lin Ze smiled and responded: I will keep it in mind. But secretly complained: Indeed, when I look at my children, Beicheng looks like a breeding ground for crime, and idle eggs run over there.
It is said that there are dark places in every place, of course, not because of poverty or the imperfect legal system, these are theoretically non-existent in Chang'an City, and it is said that even the prices in the north city exceed the prices in ordinary county towns.
The reason why a place like Beicheng appears is an inevitable choice for a city, otherwise everyone is a dignitary, rich and rivaling the city, and someone will have to do the dirty work.
Lin Ze's eyes turned to the street, most of the pedestrians were wearing weapons, all kinds of them, most of them were swords, it was worthy of an era of prosperity in martial arts, mixed with scattered people in black clothes, embroidered with the word Tingwei on their chests, these humanoid monitoring and machine guns are one of the powerful guarantees for long-term peace and stability.
Ahem, the style of painting changed suddenly, a strong guy carried four pigs, humming and running to a restaurant, an aunt smiled and carried two bags of rice out of the rice shop, and the uncle who sold braised meat on the street sliced a large piece of meat and put it on a plate.
Martial arts changes life, and the spark of martial arts practice for all people blooms in this era.
The carriage walked for a while, and not far away, two knights in armor rode straight on, and at a glance they were warriors in the army, Wu Bo pulled over, and one of the knights got off the horse and got in front of the carriage, Wu Bo nodded at him, walked over and muttered a few words to another knight, and finally nodded to Lin Ze.
Then the carriage turned in a different direction, and Wu Bo was driving, and the two knights followed the carriage closely and turned to a small courtyard gate.
In Lin Ze's confusion, the carriage entered the courtyard, and Uncle Wu stretched out his hand to help Lin Ze: "Son, come down and rest."
After Lin Ze got out of the car, he saw several people standing in the courtyard, led by a middle-aged man in a fancy dress, with an incense case, and a priest sitting on the futon under the incense case, chanting words in his mouth, cough cough, where did the dancing god come from.
As if he could hear what Lin Ze was thinking, Fang Shi looked at him with a smile and ordered, "Take blood." When Wu Bo heard this, he grabbed Lin Ze's right hand and wiped it gently, and a drop of blood dripped into the bowl containing the unknown liquid on the incense table.
Fang Shi didn't look at it, he took Lin Ze over, and his hands quickly roamed around Lin Ze's body.
Lin Ze: I'm special... This is encountering a pervert.
Fortunately, it was over quickly, Fang Shi put Lin Ze aside, drank the liquid in the bowl in front of him in one gulp, closed his eyes and pondered, and only after about a minute did he speak: "Good, medium grade can be reached, Grandmaster is difficult to enter."
The middle-aged man in the fancy costume showed a look of satisfaction in his eyes, turned his head and ordered an entourage next to him to go out and report the news.
Lin Ze pretended to be confused on his face, well, he was actually quite confused, this is probably a test of martial arts qualifications, this means that his qualifications are good, and it is still very possible to get a middle grade.
Lin Ze couldn't help but let go of his heart, in fact, these days have eased up, the whole person is still a little worried, after all, others started with waste materials, and they were humiliated and bullied at the beginning, they still rose in the end, Lin Ze didn't see where he was hanging, and the familiar history may not be able to adapt here, the emperor lived for more than 400 years, this is a BUG-like existence, who would dare to say that the Qin Dynasty II died.
Now the whole is okay, the stepmother is still friendly, and her qualifications are not wasted, so you can still get along harmoniously.
With a "bang", the courtyard door was smashed open, and a general with thick eyebrows and big eyes led people to break in, shouting loudly: "I heard that the eldest son of my righteous brother has come to Chang'an, come, let the uncle take a good look."
After speaking, seeing Lin Ze's eyes lit up, he directly wrapped Lin Ze in his arms, and rubbed his beard on his face. Lin Ze is even more confused now, doesn't he want to be harmonious?
The middle-aged man in Huafu couldn't help but be angry when he saw it: "General Wang is self-respecting, this is a family affair of the Gongsun family."
General Wang glanced at him disdainfully: "Let your mother's bullshit, my righteous brother's surname is Lin, and his surname is not Gongsun, besides, as his righteous uncle, what about me hugging my nephew, or are you an old guy who wants to stir up trouble, do you want to represent Wu'an Junfu and my Wang family to the death?"
All of a sudden, the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes was blocked and speechless, his face was flushed with anger, but he didn't dare to speak, the person in front of him could represent the Wang family, but he couldn't represent the Gongsun family, and he didn't die endlessly, how could he say it casually, I was afraid that he would not be killed by Wu Anjun in the end.
The grievances between Wu Anjun and Marquis Wu Cheng are not something that people of his level can participate in, and the entire Great Qin dares to intervene, and the hands that can intervene can be counted.
The atmosphere in the hall was awkward for a while, until a young woman in a red robe with her married hair in a bun and a peach blossom face entered the courtyard with two young girls.
The woman smiled coquettishly as soon as she opened her mouth: "Why didn't my righteous brother go to the barracks to guard today, I just want to see my nephew tell me, let Lin Lang take him to my righteous brother's mansion another day, why make such a fight."
After speaking, he winked at Lin Ze: "This is Ze'er, don't lie in your uncle's arms, turn around and get close to your father, after all, it's father and son?"
This is very skillful, and it is obvious that General Wang is an outsider, but he is not as blunt and straightforward as a middle-aged man in Chinese clothes.
General Wang slowly put Lin Ze down, touched his head, and turned to the woman: "Brother and sister, this is a good person, if the market has a bad reputation, it will be poked in the back."
Lin Ze probably guessed the identity of the woman in front of him, and thought that he still had to live under the eaves, so he saluted: "I've seen Madame."
The woman smiled again: "According to the courtesy, you should call me Auntie, but it doesn't matter, on the first day, it's normal that you don't know each other, and you can't call the wrong one in the future, especially in front of outsiders, otherwise others will think that we are uneducated."
Lin Ze was stunned, this was to scold him in, but he still replied: "Yes, eldest mother."
"My brother and sister are quite majestic, and I was stunned for a while, the tutor in Wu'an Junfu is really good, go back and promote it for my brother in Chang'an City."
After General Wang finished speaking, he took people away, and he came here just to confirm the safety of the descendants of the bloodline for his righteous brother, as for the sarcasm, and even threatened not to die, his surname Wang is not mentally retarded.
The woman's face was pale, but she still responded loudly: "Big brother go slowly, you have time to practice martial arts diligently, the national teacher said that Lin Lang was a grandmaster forty years ago, and the eldest brother should not be overtaken at that time."
After speaking, he was still angry, kicked over the incense case, and stared at the middle-aged man in Huafu fiercely: "I was not careful at all, people didn't find it when they came to the door, waste."
After saying that, he scolded and returned to the house, except for Fang Shi, the others followed one after another, Wu Bo took Lin Ze with him, and the group got on the horse and quickly ran towards the Lin Mansion.
During this period, the woman didn't look at Lin Ze much, and Lin Ze didn't care, judging from the situation just now, although the woman didn't like herself, it was not easy to erase him easily, just based on the sentence that Father Lin was forty years old, she had to take into account Father Lin's feelings.
And there is a righteous uncle who is mostly a descendant of the Wang family to help him come out, and Wu'an Junfu is not a married noble girl who can call the shots, her life is saved, as for the rest, let's act when the opportunity arises.
Martial arts, in this era, I, Lin Ze, am here after all, so I shouldn't be silent for a lifetime.
