Liu Sheng felt a headache when he heard the sobbing coming from the room.

No matter how Emperor Jing and Liu Qi treated him, he would not be moved.

However, he still felt a little guilty about Madam Jia.

After all, she had taken over someone else's son's body. She had to give an explanation.

"Mother, don't worry. I'll definitely bring you a fat grandson in a few years!”

Upon hearing this, Madam Jia could not help but laugh through her tears." You don't know shame. How can you think of having a child at such a young age!”

Even though it was common for men to marry early, it was only after the age of fourteen.

Liu Sheng was still too young.

"Hehe, what kind of children does a mother like? Blond hair, red hair, or brown hair?”

"Little bastard, go away. You only know how to anger me all day!”

Even though she said that, when Madam Jia thought of the marriage between Liu Sheng and the Xiongnu Princess, a worried expression appeared on her face.

She had made up her mind to find a daughter of the Han family for her son in the next two years. She could not let the Xiongnu princess take the lead.

Seeing that Madam Jia's expression had improved, Liu Sheng could not help but heave a sigh of relief and decisively slipped out of the room.

He had nothing to do and simply left the palace.

He had already found a guide in advance. It was the marquis of the Imperial Army called Chen Shi.

Chen Shi had already agreed to go to Yunzhong with him, so he could be considered half a retainer.

Now, it could be considered as a form of communication.

"Your Highness, I am familiar with the streets and alleys of Chang 'an.”

This was the first time Chen Shi had done private work during his shift, so he was more cautious in his words and actions.

"When you leave the palace, just call me Young Master.”

Liu Sheng's face revealed a trace of yearning.

This was Chang 'an during the Han Dynasty.

Perhaps it was the largest and most prosperous city in the world.

If he missed this opportunity, he didn't know when the next one would come.

"Yes, Young Master."

Chen Shi nodded and began to introduce some of the lively places in Chang 'an.

"In terms of liveliness, Chang 'an is the most popular in the four cities of the north, south, east and west. People come and go there in an endless stream.”

There were nine cities in Chang 'an City. Except for the four cities in the north, south, east, and west, the other five cities were all located outside Chang' an City.

The city was surrounded by walls, separating it from the residential area. The transaction could only be carried out in the city.

The city gate was guarded and opened and closed on time.

In order to facilitate customers 'purchase and government inspection, the shops in the city were arranged according to the type of goods.

In the "Ode to Mulan","buy a horse in the east market, buy a saddle in the west market, buy a bridle in the south market, and buy a long whip in the north market" was the portrayal of this specialized market.

Most of the tycoons and merchants in Chang 'an were concentrated in the East Market, and the pawnshop was the most famous among them.

There were many foreign merchants and shops in Xi City. It was the starting point of the Silk Road, and there was an endless stream of merchants all year round.

There were specialties and new things from all over the world. Even a random Hu could be the prince of a small country.

As for the northern and southern cities, the southern city mainly focused on handmade products and some small and medium-sized workshops, while the northern city concentrated most of the food and service industries in Chang 'an.

After listening to these introductions, Liu Sheng thought for a moment and said,""To Bei City."

Chen Shi naturally had no objections to this and led the way.

In order to make it easier to travel, he even specially rented a carriage as a means of transportation.

Not only was it more comfortable, but it also saved a lot of time.

Liu Sheng nodded without a trace.

This person was bold but meticulous, and he was indeed worth nurturing.

Wang Bei drove along the road for about an hour. Chen Shi gradually slowed down and said," Young Master, we've arrived at Bei City."

The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system. Not only were the laws revised on the basis of the Qin laws.

Even the layout and management of the city was not much different from the Qin Dynasty.

It is recorded in the Book of Han that there are 160 alleys in Chang 'an. The houses are neat and tidy, and the doors and alleys are straight.

This showed that Chang 'an City's urban construction was planned, not blindly built.

In order to prevent the industrial and commercial industry from expanding.

According to the system of the Han Dynasty, the length of each shi should not exceed 266 paces.

Therefore, the area of Bei City was not large.

"Then let's go down and take a look!"

Liu Sheng happily got off the carriage and stretched his stiff muscles and bones.

At this time, the two-wheeled carriage was not very comfortable. Fortunately, the road was relatively smooth, or else the whole person would have been shaken to pieces.

He wondered when he could invent a four-wheeled carriage so that he could travel less in the future.

Oh right, there was also a spring for shock absorption. He decided to write this down in his small notebook when he went back.

"Yes, Young Master."

The environment in Bei City was complicated, and Chen Shi was worried about the safety of the Cloud King.

However, he remembered Liu Sheng's ability when he fought the Xiongnu warriors and changed his words decisively.

"Mutton soup, delicious mutton soup!”

"Selling pears, fresh and juicy pears!”

"The Wang family's baked pancake. I guarantee that you'll want to eat another bite after eating one!”

Liu Sheng could not help but feel a little hungry when he heard the cries of the street vendors.

He twitched his nose and pointed at a restaurant with a thriving business.

"Let's go to that mutton restaurant to have a taste.”

Since his highness wanted to experience the life of the common people, Chen Shi naturally wouldn't spoil the fun.

Thus, the two of them sat at a table by the street.

"Boss, give me two bowls of mutton soup."

"Alright, please wait a moment!"

Not long after, two bowls of hot and fragrant mutton soup were served.

Liu Sheng took a bite. It tasted pretty good.

It was said that there was an exclusive secret recipe inside.

He drank the soup while chatting with Chen Shi, which was quite interesting.

"I heard that the Ninth Prince is going to marry the Xiongnu Princess!”

"No way, isn't the Ninth Prince the most against the marriage alliance?”

"Who knows? Maybe he's afraid?”

The voices of a few idlers came from the table beside him.

Chen Shi's expression changed on the spot after hearing this. He was about to flare up but was stopped by Liu Sheng.

"This is last month's allowance.”

A young man dressed as a ranger received the payment from the owner of the mutton restaurant. He was about to leave when he heard someone talking in his ear.

He immediately walked over with an unfriendly expression and slammed the table hard, scaring the few idlers.

"Which grandson dares to behave atrociously in front of grandfather?”

These few idlers were not easy to get along with, so they immediately cursed.

" How dare you slander the Ninth Prince! Watch me!"

The person who came had a straightforward personality and did not say much.

He directly fought with those idlers.
