"What is this donkey made of rolling? It's so strong!" Early in the morning, Huang Yu brought Xu Zhou to the morning market stall in Old Yanjing, where he ate authentic local snacks.

"Glutinous rice, you can't even eat it. It's covered with sesame and peanut powder. It should be delicious!" Huang Yu also took a bite, and walked forward with Xu Zhou in his arms.

"Bring some food, and then let's go to the Forbidden City."

"Ah, there are so many people." At the gate of the Forbidden City, Xu Zhou couldn't help asking when he saw the crowds of troops around him.

"Haha, of course, the capital is an imperial city, so it's strange that there are not many people, let's go." Huang Yu was no stranger to these crowds.

"Look at the ground. Don't look at the incomplete bricks. These bricks are more expensive than gold. They have a history of hundreds of years." During the queue, Huang Yu began to introduce the history of the Forbidden City to Xu Zhou. Touching the green brick on the ground, he said.

"No way, it's so awesome." Xuzhou became interested when he heard this, and he didn't expect that the bricks under his feet were so valuable.

"Of course, this is the root of the imperial city. Let's go to the moat to have a look later. I just want to go to the bottom of the river one day to see if I can find an antique. I won't have to worry about eating and drinking in this life." Huang Yu looked at it. Looking at the Forbidden City of Nuo Da, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Just dream. If everyone shares your thoughts, you might as well drink up the water in the moat." Xu Zhou ignored Huang Yu and looked around curiously.

"Did you see those two lions? Do you know which one is male and which one is female?" Huang Yu said, pointing to the two stone lions at the gate of the palace.

"Ah, is this thing fat, male and female?" Xu Zhou took a closer look at the two lions. It's normal. He looks at them often, but he hasn't noticed the difference between male and female. The two of them didn't see anything under the stone lions either. Toy.

"I see, the one who stepped on the ball is the male, and the one who stepped on the child is the female." Seeing Xu Zhou's confusion, Huang Yu said solemnly.

"No, that's fine too, isn't it usually the father who steps on the child?" Xu Zhou said dissatisfied.

"It's all right. The tradition is that holding the ball is power. The child is a metaphor for fertility. Why the hell am I telling you this?" Huang Yu suddenly thought of something, shook her head, and led Xu Zhou into the gate.

"Looking over there, there is a whole piece of white marble. The emperor can go up from there when he goes to court. Only the emperor can go in the middle, and the ministers can only go on both sides."

"Damn, it's such a big piece, didn't the Eight-Power Allied Forces transport it away?" Xu Zhou looked curiously, there were guardrails all around, and he couldn't even touch it. Maybe the guardrails were built to prevent tourists from touching it.

"Xiaozhouzhou, you said that it would be great if I were the emperor. There are three thousand beauties in the harem, so I can do whatever I want?" Huang Yu looked at Xuzhou and said lustfully.

"Cut, just daydream!" Xu Zhou said disdainfully.

"The first thing I did was to make you the chief eunuch and follow me every day." Huang Yu said with a big wave of his hand.

"You're a bitch, see if I don't deal with you." When Xu Zhou heard this, Huang Yu wanted to eunuch himself, and that was fine, so he rushed over immediately.

"That's right, I was wrong, can I make you queen?" Seeing Xu Zhou's menacing approach, Huang Yu quickly changed his words.

"It's your mouth, let's see if I don't tear it up." Huang Yu's words made Xu Zhou even more furious, and the two of them started a one-man show in the Forbidden City for a while.

"Okay, okay, Xiaozhouzhou, brother, I know I was wrong, you hit and scolded me, it's time to relieve my anger." Look around and look at us.

"Hmph, you were the one who provoked me first. For the sake of the number of people, please forgive me, brother." So the two of them started again at the rhythm of what I said, walking down the alleyway that has been going on for hundreds of years. , the voices of the two floated in this ancient palace wall, and the distant figures were so harmonious.

"Huang Yu, where do you think Leng Gong is?" Xu Zhou couldn't help asking a question in his heart.

"It seems to be in that corner. In fact, the entire Forbidden City is very large, and only a little bit is open. The other places are very dilapidated, especially the so-called Lenggong, which is the most remote place in the entire Forbidden City. After so many years, that place It must be old and worn out..." Huang Yu looked at the direction, pointed to a place and said to Xu Zhou.

"Are you saying that in ancient times, those deposed concubines were so miserable?" Xu Zhou couldn't help asking again thinking about the scenes on TV.

"Hey, the conditions in ancient times were very poor. Although there were not so many intrigues in the palace like those on TV, it shouldn't be much better if you were thrown into the cold palace." Huang Yu thought for a while and said.

"Well, it's pretty miserable when you think about it."

"It's all human greed and possessiveness, especially emperors, who like the new and dislike the old, so these tragedies are repeated again and again."

"Then why do you know everything?" Xu Zhou asked curiously.

"Damn it, I'm a kid who grew up in the imperial city. What don't I know? I still know a lot?" Huang Yu said proudly.

"You know, when I was young, I could run around in the Forbidden City. At that time, there were still many old people living, and there was no way of entertainment. We little kids grew up listening to the stories of those old men. Let me tell you that the Forbidden City is haunted, especially It was at night..." As he spoke, Huang Yu picked out a few scary stories and started telling Xu Zhou ghost stories.

"No, is it real or not?" Xu Zhou was startled when he heard it.

"Half-true, half-false. You just read it. The Forbidden City closes at four o'clock in the afternoon. Thinking about it, there must be something strange." Huang Yu smiled secretly, and then said to Xu Zhou in a serious manner.

"I feel that this place is very gloomy. Let's get out!" Xu Zhou thought about the court dramas he watched, how many people died here, and his scalp tingled just thinking about it.

"I'll go, Xiaozhouzhou, I find that you are very timid?" Huang Yu couldn't help but teased seeing Xu Zhou's expression.

"Fuck you, I'm a pure man, why not be timid, I just think I can go to other places to have fun." Xu Zhou immediately said in a concealed manner.

"You can sit on the dragon chair in front, do you want to feel it?" Huang Yu said pointing there.

"Tsk, it's all fake, what's so good about being an emperor." Xu Zhou said with a cold snort.

"Come here, I still want to keep some souvenirs." Huang Yu didn't know how to reform Xuzhou, and he was so defensive that he was tempted, which made his head dizzy.

"Let it be, I love you Xiaozhouzhou." Looking at Xuzhou's back, Huang Yu thought to himself.

"Ah, this is the moat in the legend, it's too narrow." The two came out from another door, and when Huang Yu pointed to the small river and said it was a moat, Xu Zhou's jaw almost dropped.

"What do you think, this is a circle. In ancient times, it was not bad to have such a width. You must know the technology at that time. This is not a small project. Think about how many people died while building the Great Wall?"

"Okay, hehehe, it happens to be such a small river, you go down to see if you can find an antique, and we'll talk about it." Xu Zhou teased Huang Yu with a smile.

"Forget it, I don't know how many times I have invited silt since the founding of the People's Republic of China. How can it be our turn if there is a baby." Huang Yu smiled embarrassingly.

"Let's go, it's noon, my brother treats you to a big meal." Huang Yu didn't quarrel with Xu Zhou about the antiques on the moat, and took Xu Zhou to a taxi before leaving the Forbidden City.

"How is it? This is the legendary Yanjing Roast Duck, isn't it?" Seeing Xu Zhou staring intently at the roast duck in Master Pian Ya's hand, Welcome couldn't help asking.

"It's fragrant, it smells delicious." Xu Zhou said, swallowing his saliva.

"Don't look, I'll wrap one for you first." Huang Yu looked at Xu Zhou, and immediately picked up a piece of bread, added two slices of duck skin and duck meat, cucumber strips and other ingredients, brushed it with sauce and handed it to him. Xuzhou.

"These are all raw." Xu Zhou pointed to the cucumber strips and green onion shreds curiously and asked.

"It's delicious when paired with this, you have to try it." Huang Yu said.

"Well, it's delicious." Xu Zhou stuffed the roast duck roll into his mouth repeatedly, and told Huang Yu that it was delicious before he finished swallowing it.

"Huang Yu, tell me how to roll." Xu Zhou impatiently took a dough and said to Huang Yu.

"It's simple, just put a few things together, don't want too much or it won't be able to wrap, and if there are too few ingredients, it won't taste good, just put on the sauce, wrap it up and eat it." Huang Yu slowly Taught Xuzhou to make one, and ate one himself.For Quanjude's roast duck, Huang Yu also loves it.

After a hasty lunch and a short rest, Huang Yu took Xuzhou to the next destination, Prince Gong's Mansion - the legendary home of He Shen, a corrupt official of the Qing Dynasty.

"These buildings are not good, they can't be compared with the Forbidden City." Seeing a piece of blue bricks and gray tiles, Xu Zhou curled his lips and commented.

"Yes, my little ancestor, apart from the royal garden, this building is the largest. You must know that the Qing Dynasty had a very strict hierarchical system. Yellow, red and Shen did not dare to seek rebellion. This can be said to be a small replica of the Forbidden City. "After hearing this, Huang Yu immediately corrected her.

"No, it's such an exaggeration." Xu Zhou couldn't help asking.

"Of course, otherwise, how could it be called a huge greed? Have you seen the two rows of houses? They are where He Shen kept his treasures back then. Ordinary treasures can't enter these two houses at all. It's amazing."

"Also, have you seen the different patterns on the windows? It is said that each pattern represents a type of treasure. There is also a legend that this is a code, and He Shen also has a place where the treasure is hidden. That is the code, and no one can break it. "Huang Yu said, pointing to several windows of different shapes above the house.

"Really?" Xu Zhou was taken aback when he heard that.

"I don't know if it's true or not, but it's true that He Shen is rich."

"Let's go, I'll show you a baby, the most amazing baby in the entire Prince Gong's Mansion." As he spoke, Huang Yu led Xu Zhou to the center of the lake.Xu Zhou didn't expect there to be a tunnel there, leading directly to the depths inside.

"See, that's all." Huang Yu pointed to the slate and said.

"What, what kind of treasure is this? What kind of characters are they? It's dark and I can't read them clearly." Xu Zhou was confused and didn't understand.

"Like me, you are lucky to touch him through the glass." Huang Yu looked at the long queue behind, touched the glass outside with Xu Zhou, and took Xu Zhou out.

"This is a "Fu" character. It is self-contained, vigorous and powerful. It is an extremely precious calligraphy treasure of Emperor Kangxi in his prime. It is said that the word "Fu" was prayed by Emperor Kangxi for his grandmother Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's [-]th birthday. Because the empress dowager was weak and weak, Kangxi was worried about his grandmother's health, and one day he realized in a dream how to combine fortune and pray for his grandmother..." After coming out, Huang Yu began to explain the source of this treasure to Xuzhou.

"Damn, it's real or not." Xu Zhou recalled the black thing, but he didn't expect it to have such a big background.

"This is absolutely true. According to legend, He Shen spent a lot of effort to keep this thing, but it's a pity that he didn't save his own life." Huang Yu said, patting his chest.
