Luoyang Brocade Chapter 72: Luoyang (1)

Luoyang City is located in the north of Luoshui. The north of the water is called "Yang", so it is named Luoyang.

Luoyang is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is bordered by Qinling Mountains in the west, Songyue Mountain in the east, Wangwu Mountain in the north, the danger of the Yellow River, and Funiu Mountain in the south. Since ancient times, there have been "eight passes of the city, surrounded by mountains on eight sides, and five rivers surrounding Luoyang". It is said to be a "city", so it is also known as "the rivers and mountains are arched together, and its shape is as good as armor in the world", and it is also known as "the thoroughfare of ten provinces in the world".

After the founding of the Zhou dynasty, Luoyang was established as the capital, and it has been two hundred years since then. For the past two hundred years, the Zhou Dynasty had enjoyed peace, prosperity and prosperity. The capital city of Luoyang was not only the political center of the Zhou Dynasty, but also the most prosperous and prosperous city in the Zhou Dynasty.

Water transportation inside and outside Luoyang City is developed, with more than ten rivers such as the Yellow River, Luo River, Yi River and Qing River meandering through it.

The fleet arrived at the pier outside Dingding Gate and berthed.

"Great! I'm finally back in the capital!" Ling Jingyan couldn't sit still anymore and excitedly stood up on tiptoes and looked out: "I'm bored after half a month on the boat."

He looked happy, as if he couldn't wait to fly out of the cabin.

After returning to the familiar city of Luoyang, Mrs. Sun was quite happy in her heart, but she said angrily: "Look at Ah Shu, she has just arrived in the capital and she can hold back her temper and sit quietly without moving. Look at her. Look at you, you're jumping up and down like a wild monkey, you don't look like a lady."

In the past, when someone praised Ling Jingshu so much, Ling Jingyan felt a little bit annoyed.

In these days, Ling Jingyan and Ling Jingshu's feelings for each other became deeper and deeper, and they developed a subtle admiration for Ling Jingshu. After hearing these words, they didn't take it seriously.

Ling Jingyan made a face at Mrs. Sun: "Yes, yes, I am just an uncertain wild monkey. Mother, it's not good for you to say that about your daughter! I am a wild monkey, wouldn't my mother become a wild monkey? Female monkey?"

Sun was so amused that she laughed out loud.

Everyone also laughed.

Ling Jingyan excitedly took Ling Jingshu's hand again: "Ah Shu, follow me and stand by the window. You must have never seen such a big and numerous dock! I tell you, this place is nothing. When you get on the carriage and enter the Dingding Gate later, it will be an eye-opener for you."

"The city of Luoyang is divided into an inner city and an outer city. The inner city includes the imperial palace and the imperial city, and the outer city is also called the outer city. There are eight gates entering the city. Dingding Gate is the main gate of the outer city, which leads directly to Imperial City. After entering Dingdingmen, you will find Dingdingmen Street. Common people are used to calling it Tianjie. This Tianjie is extremely spacious. It will not be crowded even if more than a dozen carriages go parallel..."

Ling Jingshu followed Ling Jingyan to the window and looked out into the distance.

The water here is spacious and dozens of large and small piers have been built. Ships come and go frequently. At a glance, there are no less than a hundred ships moored at various piers. There were official and private ships of various sizes, as well as merchant ships carrying rice, grain, cloth, porcelain, tea, and various other goods.

The coolies on the dock were busy carrying goods, and the vendors selling things were shouting enthusiastically. It was a busy scene.

About two miles away from the dock is the tall and majestic Dingding Gate.

Even though we are far apart. The strong and tall city gate can still be seen. There was a long queue of horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians in front of the city gate, and the city guards would check the roads before letting them go.

......

This is Luoyang!

Luoyang City, I am finally here!

Ling Jingshu thought silently in her heart. I thought of myself who had been waiting for my husband in my previous life but was humiliated and humiliated to death. I thought of Princess Changping who used her power to seize a husband. Thinking of Empress Xu who had the power in the harem... For a moment, I was in a daze and didn't pay attention to what Ling Jingyan said.

"Ah Shu. Ah Shu!" Ling Jingyan's dissatisfied voice sounded in her ears: "I am talking to you, but you are ignoring me no matter what."

Ling Jingshu quickly came to her senses. She smiled apologetically at Ling Jingyan: "I have never seen such a big dock or such a towering city gate. I was stunned for a moment. I didn't pay attention to what you said. I'm really sorry."

When I first arrived, it was normal to be shocked when I saw such a prosperous scene.

Ling Jingyan smiled generously and said: "It's nothing. It's not surprising that you will get used to living in the capital in the future."

Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and smiled: "I accompanied Ah Xiao to the capital to treat his eye disease. I will stay for a year and a half at most before returning to Dingzhou. No matter how good the capital is, it is not a place for our siblings to stay for a long time. I'm afraid there is no chance. I'm used to it."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Chiang made a half-truth and half-false joke in a meaningful way: "Maybe your marriage will be in the capital. In the future, you will get married, have children, and live here forever!"

Ling Jingshu did not pretend to be shy. She smiled lightly when she heard the words and did not say a word.

But Sun's heart moved after hearing this.

Ling Jingshu is so beautiful, smart and calm, far better than other girls of the same age. After arriving in the capital, it is indeed not difficult to find a good marriage... If there is a good opportunity, the future will be limitless.

Ling Jingyan caught sight of something and tugged on Ling Jingshu's sleeves: "Ah Shu, look, His Highness Taisun's fleet has arrived at the dock over there. There is already a carriage waiting there. Isn’t that person stepping off the ship’s deck exactly His Highness Taisun?”

Ling Jingshu followed Ling Jingyan’s gaze and looked over.

......

A handsome young man in a black brocade robe walked slowly off the ship.

The tall, strong and extremely skilled guards of the East Palace surrounded him like stars holding the moon.

Although I did not deliberately display the guard of honor in the East Palace, this nobility and magnanimity cannot be hidden from others. The more than two hundred East Palace guards are even more eye-catching.

Anyone with eyes can see that this group of people has a noble status and an extraordinary origin. Ordinary people naturally stayed away, and the hawkers who had been making a living at the dock all year round were even more discerning and would never come forward.

At the extremely busy pier with people coming and going, a large open space miraculously appeared.

The young man in Xuanyi seemed to have noticed something. The moment he got on the carriage, he suddenly turned his head and looked over.

Who is looking at him?

From such a distance, it was impossible to see who was standing behind the small window. ~IndoMTL.com~ However, he subconsciously knew that it must be Ling Jingshu.

Is she watching him off?

The young man in black clothes raised the corners of his lips slightly, withdrew his gaze and got on the carriage.

"Ah Shu, was my grandson looking at you just now?" Ling Jingyan's low voice was full of joy and surprise: "It must be. He must have guessed that you were standing in front of the window."

Ling Jingshu's reaction was very calm, almost indifferent: "From such a distance, if you can see who is standing in front of the window, His Highness the Grand Sun is not a human, but an eagle."

Ling Jingyan: "..."

How boring!

There is no romantic girlish feeling at all.

Ling Jingyan rolled her eyes and was too lazy to talk to Ling Jingshu anymore.

Ling Jingshu was so happy that her ears relaxed, her eyes passed over the carriage of the emperor's grandson, and then quickly moved away. (To be continued.)
