Save Datang MM
Chapter 284 Meet the old friend again
"Both Luoyang and Chang'an are world-renowned cities with the aura of kings, so they are naturally different." Dong Shuni said with a little pride: "Another feature of Luoyang City is that outside the west wall of the outer Guocheng, there is also a west wall because of its natural environment. From Xin'an in the west to Mang Mountain in the north and Yique Mountain in the south, there are more than [-] miles around, which is even worse than the Shanglin Garden of Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in ancient times. This large outer Guocheng is connected with Xiyuan This makes Luoyang even bigger. May I ask which big city in the world has this scene?"
"Beautiful!" Xu Ziling said with a smile, "Although Xiyuan is great, it is still far behind the 'hanging garden' built by King Nebuchadnezzar of New Babylon for his queen Tis! Let alone the least one." Hanging Gardens' fame is much greater!"
"What sky garden?" Dong Shuni was so curious when she heard that, her beautiful eyes turned and she asked: "Can a garden be built in the sky? What kind of mud is the king of Bilun from Xinba, who pretended to sprinkle some mud and really gave it to him?" Queen Mi Ti died to build a garden floating in the air? Why are these people's celebrities so weird and so awkward? Are they not Han Chinese?"
"Haha!" Xu Ziling couldn't help laughing and said: "Han Chinese? Of course they are not Han Chinese! They are the predecessors of the Persian Empire. They were established by Nebuchadnezzar more than 1000 years ago. New Babylon was a relatively powerful country at that time. He Fuyu is now the king of the Dashi Kingdom called Medes at that time, so he married his most beautiful princess Metis."
"And then?" Dong Shuni was like a curious cat.His eyes were full of curiosity.
"The two of you had a good life at first." Xu Ziling said with a smile, "but it's been a long time. The queen has become a little unhappy. Because there is no high mountain in New Babylon, all flat lands are all flat lands. People who live on plateaus are used to seeing the scenery of mountains. The queen is not used to living in a beautiful palace, but she is not happy at all."
"Is there something wrong with this woman?" Dong Shuni asked puzzledly, "Aren't you happy being a queen? Is she not stupid? What's so good about mountains?"
"It happened more than 1000 years ago, you ask me, who do I ask?" Xu Ziling said dizzily, "It's such a legend! If you interrupt me again, I won't talk about it. You can ask someone else!"
"I'll shut up right away and let you talk enough!" Dong Shuni quickly covered her small mouth, but her eyes were full of smiles.
"This queen Mitis likes flowers and plants and mountains." Xu Ziling continued: "But at that time New Babylon was all flat land. It was a royal city built on sand, so the queen was very unhappy. But her husband That is, the new Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar decided to build the world's tallest hanging garden to make his queen happy after knowing her concerns."
"What about the end?" Dong Shuni couldn't help asking: "Has the garden floating in the air been built yet?"
"Who said that the garden is floating in the air?" Xu Ziling laughed and said: "The sky garden means that you can overlook everything on the ground from above, and it doesn't mean floating in the air. Of course Nebuchadnezzar was built. Otherwise, where is the hanging garden? He ordered craftsmen from all over the country to pile up soil as high as a mountain and then surround it layer by layer with steps. There are mountain trails and gurgling springs. Now there are mountains, water, flowers and grass. It is as high as a mountain and can overlook the whole land, so everyone calls it the sky garden.”
"It's so beautiful! When shall we go and see it?" Dong Shuni asked with stars shining in her eyes.
"I can't see it." Xu Ziling shook his head and said.
"It shouldn't take long to fly with yours?" Dong Shuni suggested without giving up.
"It won't take long to fly for about a month, I believe it will arrive." Xu Ziling said with a chuckle: "It's useless if you don't pass because I just said it. That happened more than 1000 years ago, and now the sky garden is long gone."
"Why is there no land?" Dong Shuni sighed greatly, "Did everyone not water those flowers and plants so that they all withered?"
"Nonsense." Xu Ziling laughed and said, "That's because of the war."
"It's a pity." Dong Shuni knows what kind of words a girl should say when she knows that sometimes the more stupid she is, the happier he will laugh. The more comfortable the smile, the more he will naturally like her in his heart.Although she is not very old, she knows a lot of things and has good eyesight. She knows who is worth her risk, and she knows who is worth her efforts to please.
The two walked along the street talking and laughing all the way until they reached the south bank of Luoshui.
"Look at that." Dong Shuni pointed to a bridge across Luoshui that connects the north and the south: "This is called Xinzhong Bridge. You only need to look at the scale of this bridge to know in detail how the Sui Emperor Yang Guang wasted money and people. It is said that in order to make Luo become the real capital, he ordered tens of thousands of wealthy businessmen and tycoons to move from all over the country, and more than 3000 craft households in Henan were relocated to the twelve squares on the south bank of the Luo River in the southeast corner of Guocheng. There is such a scene. This magical Xinzhong bridge is also the opening and closing bridge designed by Yang Su’s friend Lu Miaozi, the world’s most skillful craftsman.”
"Your strange wings for flying into the sky were also made by Lu Miaozi?" Dong Shuni finally asked.
"Who said that?" Xu Ziling asked back: "Can't I do it myself?"
"Do you dare to say that you don't know him?" Dong Shuni said with a smile: "Although there are countless people in the world who can make human skin masks, there is only one person in the world who can really make such exquisite human skin masks."
"Smart girl." Xu Ziling deliberately gave her a thumbs up.
"So-so." Dong Shuni stroked the black belt next to her ear and said proudly like a little girl.Her little girl-like expression made Xu Ziling laugh again.Xu Ziling smiled more happily.The sweetness in Dong Shuni's beautiful eyes grew stronger.She may not know too many things, she may not be as good at martial arts as Bill, she may not have any power behind her, she has an uncle, and she always wants to marry herself to a big boss, and those perverts are used as alliances, but it is better than being likable. She is confident that no one will be better at it than her!
The two chatted and laughed all the way while enjoying the scenery of Luoyang. First, they crossed the Xinzhong Bridge.After walking for a while, I arrived at Tianjin Bridge without knowing it.
Dong Shuni took Xu Ziling to walk casually, pointing out the various scenery in Luoyang at will, while Xu Ziling secretly memorized the terrain of Luoyang city for future actions.The two of them strolled down the Tianjin Bridge and turned back to the southern area of the city.
At this time, the sky was fine and the sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.Luoyang City also seemed to wake up, as the cars and sedans were constantly flowing and it was very lively.Xu Ziling noticed that many of the passers-by were wearing Hu suits, obviously they were business travelers from the Western Regions.Many of these people are people with bare eyes.There are some skills and a little bit of value. It seems that it is not as simple as a business trip.
But everyone in Luoyang can only see the prosperity in front of them, who can feel that the world outside the city is in war and people are dying?
What is even more unexpected is that at this time Luoyang is caught in internal and external strife and has become the axis of wrestling among major forces.Although Wang Shichong can laugh.But he will never laugh until the end. Li Mi can also laugh, but it's even worse. It's a wry smile or a miserable smile.In Luoyang now, it depends on who can have the last laugh, Li Shimin or himself.
Xu Ziling was silent all the way with his thoughts on his mind.But Dong Shuni was surprisingly well-behaved, just took his hand and walked happily all the way, as if she was very satisfied just by his side.The two left the crowded Tianjie Street and walked westward along the Luoshui River. Huge boats on the river with a width of more than ten feet were juxtaposed and connected by large cable-way boats and iron locks, forming a wonderful scene.
And Tianjin Bridge has a magnificent momentum of adding bridges with four high-rise buildings facing each other from north to south.
After leaving the four city in the south of the bridge, the pedestrians on the back road are much sparser.
Dong Shuni took Xu Ziling for a walk along the embankment, and the mixed pagoda trees along the embankment lined the green and charming scenery.
Seeing that Xu Ziling seemed to be thinking about something, Dong Shuni even sat down in the shade of a tree so that Xu Ziling could quietly look at the river water and meditate.She was watching him cut water Qiutong with black and white distinctly, the more she looked at him, the more satisfied she was.In her eyes, this man is as perfect as a god. Although there is a mask on his face, his quietly contemplative eyes are like a mysterious starry sky, and there is a mysterious light that reveals all secrets and penetrates all wisdom.
He who meditates quietly is the most perfect and the most fascinating.
Dong Shuni looked at him and felt that 1 years of watching him would not be enough.
Xu Ziling looked at the slowly flowing river, he didn't know where he was going, he seemed to be thinking about a lot of things.However, a small stone was gently thrown from the opposite bank to the river surface, and a small wave splashed on the surface of the river, which broke Xu Ziling's mind and made him retreat from the deep sea of thoughts.
The figure on the opposite side flashed, and when Xu Ziling looked up, he could only see a beautiful figure disappearing in a very far corner of the street.
Xu Ziling looked at it and smiled, patted Dong Shuni and said, "From now on, you will be in danger if you follow me. You don't know me anymore, do you understand?"
"Understood." Of course Dong Shuni knew how to answer, but she hesitated a little: "If people miss you..."
"I will look for you when I have time." Xu Ziling stood up and said with a smile, "There will be a lot of people coming to see me in a while. You'd better go now and don't stay all the way until you get back to your uncle's house. You must not go around on the road... ...Ah, someone is coming soon. Now sit still and don't make a sound when you see anything. Go home by yourself..."
"Hmm." Of course, Dong Shuni understood the importance of what Xu Ziling said, and now she also knew something about Xu Ziling. If she knew about her relationship with him, others would definitely take her as a prisoner, and then Xu Ziling would be in great trouble.She obediently responded in a low voice, then nodded her head and looked away from the person who pretended to be tired from walking and sat down to rest, as if she didn't know Xu Ziling at all.
Xu Ziling swaggered forward and paced slowly, but he didn't know where he changed, and he took out his fan and shook it, like a dude who went out to look around at the little girl, looking like I'm a little whore.
Dong Shuni, who was peeking at him from under the tree and under the eyelids, was secretly amused.
However, she noticed at least a dozen groups of people dressed in all kinds of people, including traders, civilians, nobles, warriors, old scholars, niche students, and even barbarians dressed as foreigners.Although they walked on the street as naturally as possible, there was only one final direction and that was to follow Xu Ziling.
A man and a woman turned out from the restaurant opposite Xu Ziling.
Although the man was wearing casual clothes, he was extremely dignified and bright, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and it was obvious that his martial arts had reached a high level.
But he completely let the woman next to him compare.No matter how outstanding he is, compared to that woman, he is just a leaf silently setting off the red flowers.
If the woman is a flower, the bronze-skinned man is just black and black.
I don't know if that woman loves red very much. Not only the red dress on her body is like fire, but a whisk sticking upside down on her back is also blood red like flames, competing with the red dress.As soon as she appeared, she caught the attention of everyone on the entire street.She looks like a waterfall fluttering down the jet-black and shiny beauty, and a red and white hairpin is inserted to match her icy muscles and jade bones.
Xu Ziling smiled when he saw it.
Because he saw the old man.
"Beautiful!" Xu Ziling said with a smile, "Although Xiyuan is great, it is still far behind the 'hanging garden' built by King Nebuchadnezzar of New Babylon for his queen Tis! Let alone the least one." Hanging Gardens' fame is much greater!"
"What sky garden?" Dong Shuni was so curious when she heard that, her beautiful eyes turned and she asked: "Can a garden be built in the sky? What kind of mud is the king of Bilun from Xinba, who pretended to sprinkle some mud and really gave it to him?" Queen Mi Ti died to build a garden floating in the air? Why are these people's celebrities so weird and so awkward? Are they not Han Chinese?"
"Haha!" Xu Ziling couldn't help laughing and said: "Han Chinese? Of course they are not Han Chinese! They are the predecessors of the Persian Empire. They were established by Nebuchadnezzar more than 1000 years ago. New Babylon was a relatively powerful country at that time.
