Half a month later.
A group of carriages came from the southeast.
Li Jing and the others had finally returned. The Golden Guards let out excited roars.
Hearing the noise, Chen An lifted the curtain and looked ahead.
A
huge city stood on the ground, grand and magnificent, ancient and weathered.
It was Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Empire.
"Mother, come and see how big that city is!”
Miss Chen also poked her head out and looked at the ancient city.
"It's so big, much bigger than Jing state. This was the first time his mother had seen such a large city.”Miss Chen also said excitedly.
Hearing the mother and son's words, the Golden Guards outside the window laughed out loud.
"Little Lord, this is Chang 'an, the capital of the Great Tang. It is extremely prosperous and is home to one million citizens.”
Miss Chen was extremely surprised.
Millions of people?
Heavens!
Chen An's expression did not change.
Chang 'an was not only the largest city in the Tang Empire, but also the most prosperous city in the entire world. It was two times larger than Chang' an in the Han Dynasty, 1.45 times larger than the imperial capital in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, seven times larger than Constantinople in the Byzantine Empire, 2.8 times larger than Baghdad, and six times larger than Rome…
It had reached the peak of the ancient feudal dynasties.
No country could compare!
Amid
the excited laughter of the crowd, the convoy quickly headed for the east gate of Chang 'an.
Suddenly!
Several pegasi galloped out of the east gate and ran toward the convoy.
The dragon flag fluttered high in the air, and the golden scepter danced in the wind
…Li Jing was shocked to see this scene.
The angel came again?
"Quickly dismount and welcome the imperial edict!”
Everyone hurriedly dismounted, and Miss Chen also carried her son out of the carriage.
"The emperor's edict, Chen An, accept the edict!”
Everyone knelt down and said,"Long live the Emperor!”
"In accordance with the heavens, the emperor issued an edict saying: Summon Chen An into the palace to meet the emperor immediately! Respect this!"
The eunuch read aloud.
After saying that, the eunuch closed the door and said,""Chen An, accept the edict!"
"No, I can't! I'm not going!"
A childish voice rang out in the venue.
The angel was shocked.
Everyone was shocked.
What?
Not going again?
"I still have to take the exams. You have to study hard!"
Eunuchs: "…""
…
"…""…"…""…"…""…"
…"
He had been rejected once, so he was still a little angry. Now, it was fair.
Haha!
This little kid was really audacious. He even dared to reject the emperor's edict twice.
Awesome!
F * cking awesome!
The angel looked at Li Jing with a resentful gaze, as if asking,"What should he do now? Should he capture this little doll?
Sensing the other party's question, Li Jing shook his head.
"Angel, please return first. I'll enter the palace to see the emperor later and report everything."”
"Alright then!"
The angel turned around and left with the guard of honor.
"Let's go into the city!"
Li Jing waved his hand, and everyone got on their horses and rushed into the east gate.
…
South of Chang 'an. Vermilion Bird Street.
This was where the nobles of the Great Tang lived, and it was close to the Imperial Palace.
Li Jing led Chen An and his mother into Vermilion Bird Street and stopped in front of a large house.
Everyone dismounted.
"Miss Chen, this is the new home that His Majesty the Son of Heaven has bestowed upon you and your son. In addition, His Majesty had also sent some maids and servants to the Royal Palace.”Li Jing explained.
Hearing this, Miss Chen was very excited and quickly kowtowed in the direction of the Imperial Palace."Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Alright, alright, get up quickly. As long as you take good care of Chen An in the future, it will be the best way to repay Tian Zi.”Li Jing waved his hand and got Miss Chen to stand up. He then shouted,"Li Li!”
"I'm a man of the world!"
"You pick three people to stay in the Chen residence from now on to protect Mrs. Chen and her son. "Oh right…" Li Jing looked at the end of the line."What's your name again?”
"Replying to Milord, this humble servant is a Jingzhou Prefecture Military Lieutenant, called Yue Qianshan.”
Yue Qianshan quickly saluted and said respectfully.
The seven of them were under the name of the Imperial Governor Zheng to protect Chen An. He followed her all the way from Jing State to Chang 'an.
Hearing the answer, Li Jing nodded again.""Alright! You guys stay too! Alright, I want to enter the palace to see the emperor. Miss Chen, you can bring Little Wa in. If there's anything in the future, you can tell Lieutenant Li.”
"Yes, sir! Thank you, my lord!"
Miss Chen bowed and thanked him.
Li Jing mounted his horse and left Vermilion Bird Street with the rest of his personal guards.
Looking at the mansion in front of her, Miss Chen was very happy. She brought Chen An into her new home…the
palace.
"What is it? He went against the decree again?" Li Shi Min was shocked.
"Yes, Your Majesty! This is the second time!"
"This kid…"
Li Shiming didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he wasn't angry.
At this moment.
At the door, someone shouted,"Minister of War Li Jing has arrived!"”
"Announce!"
"Summon Li Jing into the hall!"
Accompanied by the eunuch's voice, Li Jing walked into the emperor's bedroom.
The monarch and his subjects began a long conversation.
Four hours later, another decree was sent from the palace to the Chen Residence.
"Miss Chen, this is the gold and silver that His Majesty bestowed upon us, as well as some silk from Sichuan and Shu. His Majesty ordered him to raise Chen An well and prepare for the exam on the first day of next month.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty! I obey!"
Miss Chen excitedly accepted the reward and was extremely proud in her heart.
A mother is proud of her son.
All of this was because of Chen An!
Seven years ago, when she was chased out of her husband's family and then her maiden family, she never thought that this day would come.
God, you've treated the three ladies well!
At this moment, Miss Chen's eyes turned red, and tears fell.
"Mother! What's wrong with you?"
Chen An ran in from outside and asked with concern.
Miss Chen wiped the corners of her eyes and smiled.""Mother is fine. Just now, some dust fell and fell into Mother's eyes.”
"Oh! Then, let her get someone to sweep the dust off the beams!”
Chen An said with a smile.
With that, the little guy ran out of the door and shouted,"Mother, I'm going out for a walk to see Chang 'an City!”
What was that?
An 'an was going out?
Miss Chen was anxious and wanted to call her son back. Unfortunately, in the blink of an eye, the little guy had already run away.
"Madam, don't be nervous. Yue Xiaowei followed them!"
The butler comforted him.
Hearing this, Miss Chen was slightly relieved and allowed her child to see the world.
…
Chang 'an East City.
A little fellow was skipping along the bustling streets, Yue Qianshan and the others following behind him.
The eastern and western cities were the economic activity centers of the Tang Empire's Chang 'an City. They were also the centers of industrial and commercial trade. They were also important places for economic exchanges between countries. There were merchants gathered here, and there were many shops. There was a dazzling array of goods, and the trade was extremely prosperous.
The little fellow looked here and there.
One moment, he would buy a candied fruit to eat, and the next moment, he would buy a red fruit to eat. He was having a lot of fun.
Of course, Yue Qianshan was the one who paid for it.
o(Kou)o
Everyone followed the little master to play. Unknowingly, a loft appeared in front of them.
The pavilion occupied a vast area and was thirty feet tall. Red silk ribbons hung from the top of the pavilion…
On the plaque at the entrance, there were three big words:
Peony Pavilion!
A loud noise came from inside the building, and a faint fragrance wafted over.
"Eh, what's up ahead?”Chen An asked curiously.
Yue Qianshan and the others were instantly dumbfounded and didn't know how to answer.
Suddenly.
A passerby passed by and told him the answer with a smile,""Little Lord, the most famous Peony Pavilion in Chang 'an is in front of us. Do you know what kind of place Peony Restaurant is? Brothel! Hehe!"
What was that? Brothel?
Chen An was overjoyed."Baby loves brothels. Go quickly, go take a look."
…
