Loyang Jin

Luoyang City is located in the north of Luoshui River. 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 has been a "city of eight passes, surrounded by mountains on eight sides, and five rivers surrounding Luoyang". According to the saying, it is 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 any longer. She stood up on tiptoes and looked out excitedly: "Having been on the boat for half a month has made me bored."

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

Returning to the familiar city of Luoyang, Mrs. Sun was also quite happy in her heart, but she said angrily: "Look at Ah Shu, she has been able to suppress her temper and sit quietly without moving when she first arrived in the capital. Look at you, 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 disgusted.

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, doesn't my mother become a female monkey? "

Mrs. 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 pier! Let me tell you, this place is nothing. Wait a moment Getting on the carriage and entering Dingding Gate will definitely open your eyes. "

"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, leading directly to the imperial city. Once you enter Dingdingmen, you will find Dingdingmen Street, which the common people are accustomed to call Tianjie. This Tianjie is so spacious that even a dozen horse-drawn carriages will not be crowded..."

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

The water here is spacious, dozens of large and small piers have been built, and ships come and go frequently. At a glance, there are no less than a hundred ships moored at various piers. There are 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, making it a busy scene.

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

Even from a long distance, you can still see the strong and tall city gate. 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 suffered humiliation and humiliation. I thought of Princess Changping who used her power to seize her husband. I thought of Empress Xu who had all the power in the harem... For a moment, I was in a daze and didn't even notice. Ling Jingyan said nothing more.

"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 back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Ling Jingyan: "I have never seen such a big dock with so many piers, nor such a towering city gate. I was stunned for a moment. I didn't pay attention to what you said. , I’m so sorry.”

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

Ling Jingyan smiled generously and said, "That's nothing. It's no surprise that you'll get used to living in the capital in the future."

Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and smiled: "I accompanied A 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 us siblings to stay for a long time. I'm afraid we won't have the chance to get used to it. ”

"That's not necessarily the case."

Jiang made a joke with half truth and meaning: "Maybe your marriage will be in the capital. In the future, you will get married, have children, and live here forever!"

Ling Jingshu didn't pretend to be shy. She smiled lightly when she heard this and said nothing.

But Mrs. Sun's heart moved after hearing this.

Ling Jingshu was so beautiful, smart and calm, far superior to 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 at 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. The one is leaving Isn’t it His Highness Taisun who got off the boat?”

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

...

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

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

Although he 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 extraordinary origins. 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 black clothes 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. 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 Taisun will not be 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 felt so happy that her ears relaxed, her eyes passed over the carriage of the emperor's grandson, and then quickly moved away.
