Chapter 46 The Imperial Capital Luoyang

Luoyang is the place of the imperial capital of all eternal times. Zhou Gong Buluo, Ying Wangcheng, and Cheng Zhou Twin Cities.

The royal city is in the west, and Chengzhou is in the east. The royal city is the place where the emperor and the ancestral temple are located. The Chengzhou city is moved to the place where the survivors of the Shang Dynasty are banned, and the eight divisions of Zhou are stationed to control the princes of Guandong.

After that, Luoyang established its capital several dynasties, and it was several times unfolded and abolished. Until Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Yang, Yang Guang ascended the throne, he visited Luoyang eastward, set up Beimeng and looked out. Seeing Luoyang's mountains and rivers, he couldn't help but sigh, why didn't the capital be built here since ancient times?

After Yang Guang finished speaking, the right servant Su Wei stepped forward and held the tablet in his hand and played loudly. He has never known it since ancient times, so he will wait for Your Majesty!

In the early years of Daye, after the accumulation of Kaihuang's rule, the entire Sui Dynasty was booming. This was a prosperous era of flowers and brocade and oil cooking with fire.

Yang Guang was so angry that he swept away the mountains and rivers. He made the imperial edict in the eastern capital of the world, saying that Luoyi has been in charge of the three rivers and four blocks since ancient times...

In March of the first year of Daye, Emperor Yang of Sui commanded 700,000 civilians and ordered Yang Su and Yuwen Kai to build the Eastern Capital.

In addition to the majestic Dongdu, the east capital was built together with Shanglin Garden, which is the most royal garden in ancient times and Xianren Palace, which is not inferior to Renshou Palace. Later, Emperor Yang of Sui also abolished the Erjia Road and opened the Lingcao Road, with a total of 800 miles and built the fourteen palaces!

The final mobilization of the husband's war reached two million people, and the eastern capital Luoyang was finally completed in September.

At this moment, Li Chongjiu was leading his horse from south to east. He passed Lingbo Palace, Jinghua Palace, and then passed Ganquan Canal connecting Yishui and Luoshui.

After that, Li Chongjiu finally came to the south gate of the Eastern Capital and waited to enter the city.

Now waiting with Li Chongjiu, a large number of business travelers waiting to enter the city for business, as well as farmers rushing to the market are entering the city one after another.

Jianguo Gate is located on the central axis of Wangyique in the eastern capital. It is the main gate, and opens to the south. There are Baihu Gate and Changxia Gate on the left and right.

As the southern gate of the imperial capital, Jianguo Gate is definitely the area with the highest peak of people entering the city every day. Li Chongjiu feels like he is in the West Railway Station of Beijing here.

However, this Jianguo Gate is worthy of the most majestic gate of the imperial capital. It is said that it is magnificent and better than the Mingde Gate in Xijing. There are three gates under the city gate. The middle gate is usually closed and cannot be opened, only for the emperor's carriage to enter and exit, and the other two gates go in and out from left and right.

Due to too many people, Li Chongjiu took the pass issued by Shaolin Temple to the city soldiers and gave it to the city soldiers. The other party even owed the time to glance, so he directly asked Li Chongjiu to enter the city. This made Li Chongjiu's little concern before disappear.

As he passed the dark door hole dozens of meters long, as soon as he left the city gate, Li Chongjiu's eyes suddenly became bright, and there was a sudden enlightenment in front of him.

In front of Li Chongjiu, it was a 100-step-width street. For Li Chongjiu, it was simply a square, not a street.

There are various elm and willows on both sides of Tianjie. The road is divided into three paths, with the imperial road in the middle, and the two are the walking people.

At this moment, Li Chongjiu walked on such a spacious street with his horse, even as a traveler, he could not help but feel his eyes open. Tianjie directly leads to the end gate, so the arches on both sides are mostly lived by royal nobles and high-ranking officials, such as the second arch on the left hand side, which is the location of Henan County.

Seeing that the houses on both sides of Lintian Street are covered with double eaves and decorated with elixir powder, a luxurious atmosphere filled the eyes.

Li Chongjiu knew that when he walked to the bottom of this Tianjie, he had to cross the famous Tianjin Bridge to cross the Luo River, and then the south gate of the imperial city was the end gate.

If Li Chongjiu wants to meet Princess Changle at this moment, he can go north along Tianjie and reach the imperial city located in the northwest corner of the Eastern Capital.

But Princess Changle is not a commoner like Li Chongjiu. However, even if she does not go to the imperial city, it will not affect Li Chongjiu's view of the atmosphere of the Tianjia along the Tianjie Street, which is infected by the momentum coming from the pavilion.

After stopping for a long time, Li Chongjiu sighed for a while and decided to go to Li Hu and the others first. He asked a 'city man' and how to go to Guidefang.

When the other party saw Li Chongjiu's dress in a coarse cloth and a migrant worker who looked like he was entering the city, he immediately looked higher than the top and pointed eastward, saying that he was walking eastward to the Sanfang.

When Li Chongjiu heard this, he sincerely thanked him. The more than 100 yards in Luoyang were all divided straightly. He had heard that after the construction of the Dongdu, Yang Guang transferred the households in Yuzhou, Jiangnan and Hebei several times to fill the population of Luoyang, but the population distribution in the entire urban area was still uneven.

For example, Lifang in the southeast corner of Guidefang is located, because it is located in the northwest of the imperial city and the two cities in the east, north and south, this CBD central business district is too remote.

Therefore, the Lifang in the southeast corner of the eastern capital is relatively sparsely populated compared to other Lifangs, and there are no dignitaries living in any noble people. Therefore, they are generally poor people and inns with no grade.

Li Chongjiu stepped on the soil with straw shoes and ran to Guidefang in dust. After arriving at the destination, he saw two patrolmen standing lazily on the wall with guns. After Li Chongjiu entered, they asked casually and immediately let him pass.

In Guidefang, there were really not many people, so Li Chongjiu easily found the inn where Li Hu and the others stayed.

Before he could ask the shopkeeper, Li Chongjiu saw Wang Mahan's back with a tiger-back and bear-waisted back.

The other party was on a table in the inn, holding his feet in one hand and holding chopsticks in the other hand, and eating noodles with a big bowl of noodles.

While Wang Mahan was eating happily, he suddenly felt his shoulders sinking, as if someone put his hand on his shoulders and felt heavy.

Wang Mahan immediately became furious, wiped the soup in front of him and cursed: "Don't you know that I hate others on the back when eating noodles?"

When Wang Mahan turned his face with his fist, he was stunned and saw Li Chongjiu standing behind him with a smile.

Wang Mahan immediately fell off his chopsticks. When he saw Li Chongjiuduan for a long time, he suddenly cried out loudly: "Young master, young master, it's you, I thought I would never see you in my life."

Li Chongjiu laughed and said, "What a mess, I'm still standing in front of you."

Seeing that Li Chongjiu was real, Wang Mahan nodded, wiped his eyes, raised his head and shouted to the top, "Don't come down to me, young master, many escorts are coming!"

After Wang Mahan finished speaking, he heard the wooden stairs ringing upstairs. Many people came down from the building, and dozens of people stood in front of Li Chongjiu, standing in full in the inn.

"What a bad leader, it's great!"

"A bastard, what a young leader? You have to call a young man!"

"Yes, yes, I'm confused when I get excited."

Several people were so excited that they shed tears on the spot.

Li Chongjiu was moved when he saw this and said, "Brothers, I have been waiting for a long time. I, Xiaojiu, have seen you again, it's great."
