[Comprehensive History] Clothes are all over the world

With Mu Bai's unremitting efforts, he finally succeeded in persuading Huaxin's friends to go to Chang'an City to have fun together.

In fact, generally speaking, the internal situation in Chang'an City is not as bad as Mr. Luo said. After all, Daming has been stationed here for ten years. If it is still the same as before, it can only be said that the managers here are not careful. .

Outside Chang'an City today, all the fortifications of the city wall have been completed. The blue-black bricks and stones stand like giants. Soldiers, and flags with clear characters.

Although the land of Sichuan and Shu also has city walls and towers, they are limited by the terrain, and their sense of thickness and majesty is far inferior to that of Chang'an City.

Although living in the human body has reduced a lot of sensitivity, when there were still more than a hundred steps away from Chang'an City, Mu Bai still felt a pair of eyes slowly opened inside the wall, and the other party's eyes locked on them silently. this line.

The opponent's royal spirit still exists, but his breath is weak, like a king who has been riddled with holes, standing with his sword under the trend of dignity and responsibility, trying his best to protect the people behind him.

Mu Bai raised his head and glanced over there, and immediately bowed his body slightly to express his harmlessness. He also has a royal air in his body, although they are not from the same lineage, they can also sense each other.

Sure enough, after he indicated that he was only here to visit, the other party's power gradually dissipated, and his attitude became gentler. Even the cold wind passing through the city eased a lot, as if to welcome his arrival.

After Mu Bai said that the other party's new clothes (city wall) were very beautiful, the other party's whole atmosphere became cheerful, and the wind that swept over was full of rippling breath.

So happy?The guardian spirit of Chang'an City seems to be a woman... but it is not impossible for a man who loves beauty. After all, this is the capital of Qin and Han Dynasties. Mu Bai's impression of these people's ancestors is quite beautiful.

When he was inquiring about the news with the friendly guardian spirit secretly, Ah Tu said with some regret: "Are these city walls newly built? Then there are no previous Qin and Han city walls?"

For Atu, a native of Yunnan, the earliest and earliest communication in his hometown of Han began in the Qin and Han Dynasties.

Qin Wang Yingzheng sent officials to Yunnan, and the Central Dynasty officially announced the right to govern Yunnan.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che pacified Yunnan. At that time, the Dian Kingdom surrendered and the Dian Kingdom was destroyed. Yunnan officially belonged to the territory of the Western Han Dynasty, and they officially had the name "Yunnan". .

Although since then, with the rise and fall of the central dynasty, the rule in Yunnan has been tight and loose, but for the people of Yunnan, the significance of the Qin and Han dynasties to them is different from that of other dynasties.

Therefore, after learning that all the cities he saw were built in the Ming Dynasty, Ah Tu inevitably felt somewhat regretful.

"Actually, the original city wall isn't completely gone, it's just that it's gone, but it's still there."

"The Tang Imperial City was built on the basis of the Qin and Han city walls when it was built, and the current city wall is expanded on the basis of the Tang Imperial City. So theoretically, the Qin and Han bricks should be in the innermost part of the current Ming city wall."

Mr. Luo overlooked the gate of Chang'an City, and saw the towering arrow tower above, he couldn't help squinting his eyes: "I heard that when the east gate was being built, an urn city was also built. I wonder if we can see what it looks like when we enter the city."

"Shouldn't you be able to see it!" Mu Bai was also a little curious, "If ordinary people see the internal design, wouldn't it be easy to expose the information to the secret agent?"

"Hey, I really want to see Chang'an's Wengcheng. I heard that the complexity of the Wengcheng here is second only to the Jubao Gate in Yingtian Mansion. I'm really curious. Cough, of course, it would be great if I could climb up the city wall to see it. gone."

This is obviously whimsical.Although modern people can ride tandem bicycles on the city wall when they go out to travel, in any dynasty the city wall is a military defense area with the level of "death to trespassers", and local residents are not qualified to go to the city gate.

Even if you enlist in the army, unless a very small number of troops lacking men are needed for defense, the normal formation of the army must be a soldier with several years of experience in the army to be able to go up the tower.

One is that defending the city also requires skills. The soldiers facing the city gate guards are more cunning and less afraid of death. The recruits can't handle it, and the other is out of loyalty considerations.

A lot of secrets can be seen from the perspective of overlooking from a high place, especially the most important defensive weaknesses, patrol gaps, and food and weapon warehouses, etc., may be exposed. If these secrets are seen by less reliable people Oops.

Everyone understands the truth, but people can't bear to be curious.

Mu Wen raised his small head, and seeing the curiosity written on every beard of Mr. Luo, he also became interested: "Grandpa Luo, what is the Wengcheng?"

"Does Wen'er know how to catch a turtle in an urn?" Mr. Luo tidied up his beard and explained to the child solemnly, "The turtle is extremely cunning and can escape quickly, but if you put it in the urn... hehe, it's easy to come by. This is what Wengcheng means."

As he said that, he gestured to Mu Wen to look at the pot he was holding...ah no, it was a nest of pigs, pigs and crocodiles, "Wengcheng is a defensive facility, and it is actually the same as your pot. The gates and walls are pots Bi, that pig of yours is the enemy. No matter how it spins inside, it won’t be able to climb out if the pot doesn’t fall, so it can only be manipulated by you.”

Mu Wen subconsciously stretched out his hand to protect his beloved little pet, and a vigilant light shot out from his big round eyes. He always felt that Mr. Luo's eyes just now were a little dangerous!

Mu Bai coughed twice and explained: "In fact, it is very simple to build, that is, to build another city within the gate. When defending, the officers and soldiers will deliberately let the enemy break through a gate, and then try to seal the outside gate. In this way, These people are completely exposed to the two city gates, unable to advance or retreat, at this time, as long as the soldiers are arranged to stand on the surrounding walls and shoot arrows downward, the effective strength of the enemy army can be effectively wiped out."

"According to the weapons and weapons of the late Han Dynasty, such a city cannot be broken by hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the cost is too high. In this way, the only way to break this city is to divert water or attack with fire...or attack the heart. "Mr. Luo's eyes became a little silly when he thought about it.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Mu Bai hurriedly interrupted him, and he was about to enter the city in a few steps. If someone overheard what he said at this time, the whole group of them might be arrested and sent to prison Slowly explained.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but Mu Bai always felt that the little official in front seemed to be looking at him.

As the most important town in Northwest China, Xi'an has a large number of people even though it is sparsely populated now. Mu Bai and the others lined up for nearly half an hour.

Fortunately, except for a carriage, all their belongings were relatively light, so they didn't spend too much time on inspection.After checking their household registration books (the new version of the Yunnan four-member group's household registration book was also surrounded by guards), paid the entry fee, and registered their household registration, the group was allowed in.

As soon as he entered the city, Mu Bai pulled a few people and rushed straight to the north of Chang'an City. His goal was the iconic landscape of Chang'an City - the former Taiji Palace, which is now the office of the Daming Xi'an Prefecture.

It is said to be the Taiji Palace, but in fact, one of the majestic and majestic Tang Dynasty has long been destroyed by the war, and most of the barely preserved buildings were almost demolished in the Song Dynasty. The houses here are actually construction workers in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties. A small palace rebuilt in the style of the Taiji Palace is actually very different from the Tang and Song Dynasties.

But it can also let lay tourists and friends see the big from the small.

The appearance of several people probing their brains can no longer be simply described as suspicious, and it attracts vigilant looks from time to time.If it weren't for these people's foreign costumes and touristy expressions on their faces, it is estimated that the Yamen would have stepped forward with an iron ruler to question them.

Don’t look at the impression that our ancestors left us with all kinds of house-building and building madness, in fact, the ancestors were relatively frugal, especially in the early years of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, when everyone’s money was tight.

If there is a change of dynasty, those who come later will generally pick up the resources left by the previous dynasty to tinker and continue to live. Only when the house is really dilapidated will it be directly demolished and rebuilt.

Therefore, occasionally some embarrassing situations will happen. For example, this used to be the palace and palace, but now it is just an office. If you live in a house that does not match the level, you will die if you are not careful, especially for Zhu, who can't tolerate sand in his eyes. The emperor's subordinates are begging for life, and this must be paid attention to.

What?Remote?It doesn't work in remote places, let the sons of Zhu Yuanzhang spread all over the country understand?

The tiger father has no dogs, and the sons of Lao Zhu's family are stationed in the local area. In addition to undertaking the garrison task, they also have the responsibility of supervising the officials.Although the prince does not interfere with local government affairs, he may not be able to detect local maladministration in some aspects, but such a big thing as living in the wrong house cannot be avoided by all of them with full eyesight of 5.0.

In fact, this kind of situation is not the most difficult to deal with. The most troublesome thing is when you have already moved in, and suddenly you are thrown over by a feudal lord who occupies the same land and works together.

For example, Xi'an Prefecture is like this.

Therefore, Mu Bai and others were surprised that the government office only occupied a small part of the well-preserved palace of the original Taiji Palace, and all the back was sealed and changed to the Qin Palace.

... But the clan and officials live next to each other, don't you feel awkward and uncomfortable?These two are natural opposites.

Of course it was embarrassing, the magistrate of Xi'an prefect really wanted to move, but after Qin Wang arrived in Xi'an and became a feudal vassal, he carried out various renovations and reconstructions, and was repeatedly criticized by Zhu Yuanzhang for not changing, and finally he was reprimanded by Emperor Hongwu before he stopped.

King Qin was at peace, but Xi'an Mansion was put on the head of the bar.

They also want to move, but they have to build a house to move, and they have to pay civil service. The labor force of Xi'an Prefecture itself is limited, and it has been conscripted by King Qin before. They will definitely not be able to issue civil service in a short time. Just take a break for two or three years.

If you don't issue civil service and don't build a house, you can only hold back in such aggrieved way.Not to mention them, the king of Qin next door saw them occupying a space in his mansion, and his eyes were not eyes and nose, and he would wander over from time to time and sigh, which made the prefect of Xi'an prefecture feel very bad, and the employees below him were also very irritable.

However, the mood of the magistrate of Xi'an Prefecture has improved visibly in the past two days, because the prince is coming!

Don't get me wrong, the magistrate didn't mean to flatter, but as the eldest brother who single-handedly brought up the younger brothers, all the younger brothers admired him.

For the difficult king of Qin, to some extent, the words of the prince are more useful than those of the old father.

At that time, when the prince comes, he must inquire about the local government affairs, so he will mention it a little, and the prince will definitely understand what he means, hehe.

However, the prefect's wishes were only half achieved.Three days later, when the crown prince arrived at Xi'an Mansion, perhaps it was because the crown prince was in a hurry to respond to the Spring Festival in Tianfu, or it might be because of some unexpected problems encountered in the previous stops. Some expressions do not belong to the taste.

"I'm sorry, I may be a little tired, please repeat." Prince Zhu Biao is not yet thirty this year, he has inherited the advantages of his parents, he has handsome features, and he often smiles on his face. He speaks elegantly and behaves well Just looking at his appearance, some people might mistake him for a frail scholar.

It would be a big mistake to think so.

The prince of the Ming Dynasty, who was taught by a famous teacher since childhood and assisted his father in governing the country when he was young, was born in troubled times and grew up in the military camp. When he was a teenager, he helped his mother guard the city and did logistics work.

When he was a little older, under the guidance of his assistant ministers, he undertook most of the military and government affairs in the rear when his father was away. During Zhu Yuanzhang's most difficult years, he managed the rear in an orderly manner and maintained the front line huge expenditures.

It was precisely because of his excellence that Zhu Yuanzhang named him the prince of Wu on the day he became king, and later made him the prince of Ming Dynasty.

These special experiences make Zhu Biao seem much calmer than his peers, but despite Zhu Biao's benevolent and gentle appearance, in fact, he is not less muscular than others.Especially since he is still the elder brother, he has to set an example for all the little radish heads who stand up.

Yes, even though he was already so busy, he did not forget to pay close attention to the education of his younger brothers. Zhu Biao helped enlighten Zhu Yuanzhang's older children, both civil and military.

Although Zhu Biao seldom fights in the arena, he is also a teacher of famous masters, and he is not bad in archery and wrestling. He is the greatest pride of Zhu Yuanzhang's life, he is the elder brother trusted and respected by his younger brothers, and he is also the existence that all officials admire and look forward to no matter whether they are civil or military. .

Except for one thing, after the death of the first concubine, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was reluctant to establish a second concubine.

But generally speaking, this is not a big problem. After all, the first concubine has already given birth to two sons, so the succession is fine. The only problem is that the prince is the heir apparent after all. If there is no concubine, there will be some turmoil in the future , but that is also in the future.

Therefore, when he heard that the prince was tired, the magistrate of Xi'an prefecture would not continue to report his work uninterestedly, but immediately said that he would arrange bedding for the prince and ask him to rest.

Unexpectedly, the crown prince waved his hand, saying that he would go to find his younger brother to make do with it for a night, and by the way, he had a heart-to-heart talk with his worried second brother.

So, with the embarrassing expression of suing the prefect, Zhu Biao walked out of the gate of Xi'an Mansion. He did not ride a horse, but turned around and walked towards the gate of Prince Qin's Mansion.

Because of his impromptu intention, the Jinwu Guard and Habayashi Guard who were responsible for protecting his safety had no time to clear the crowd.However, this place itself is an administrative center, and there are not many people who dare to hang out here.

Except for Mu Bai and others who just went to Xianyangyuan to see the clear scenery of Wei and Wei a day ago, and are now hurrying south.

Prince Qin's Mansion is located on the central axis of Xi'an City, and it is the only way to enter the city. However, ordinary people would rather walk a little longer after entering the city and avoid the direction of the Prince's Mansion, so as not to bump into someone.

Although the Ming Dynasty did not avoid taboos in this regard, the locals who experienced the rule of the Jin and Yuan dynasties knew too well what it means to commit crimes. It is better to travel a little more than a little more trouble.

But Mu Bai and the others who were dedicated to visiting just wanted to see what the palace looked like in the past, so they didn't take a detour when they returned to the city, so the two parties ran into each other.

In the distance, the horses of Mu Bai's group, whose costumes were very different from those of the locals, attracted the attention of the guards, but before they stepped forward to control them, the people over there took the initiative to stop, got off their horses, and bowed to them.

Because the prince had ordered not to disturb the people, the soldiers did not step forward, but paid attention to their movements from a distance, especially the movements of their hands.

I have to mention that after the emergence of firearms, the pressure to prevent assassination has indeed increased a lot for Bing Ge.

If their complaints are known to the future soldiers, they will definitely feel that the old seniors are too weak to withstand pressure.

Today's firearms all need to be ignited with fire, no matter how concealed they are, they will definitely need a fuse igniter, which greatly increases the reaction time.

In a hundred years or so, the firearms they will deal with will be the flintlock style, and the difficulty of defense is really leveraged.

Moreover, the aim and impact of today's firearms are far weaker than those in the future. The wounds of future firearms will basically be penetrating wounds. Lord!

Of course, it was thanks to Mu Baitu that he was able to put the carriage in the hostel so that they were not heavily defended. Otherwise, if they brought the carriage, they would definitely be intercepted and searched.

As if sensing something from the vigilant direction of the soldiers, Zhu Biao raised his head and looked in the direction of the group of people.There are about [-] steps between them. This distance is already the limit of human beings' clear distinction. Therefore, Zhu Biao can only see three figures, three figures, two figures and five figures standing there from a distance, and the rest is blurred.

At this moment, the main door of King Qin's mansion, who had heard the news one step later, opened, and King Zhu of Qin, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, stepped out quickly, looking around, he met his brother's teary eyes at a glance, and was immediately shocked, his brother missed him so much!

The muscular man with a height of 1.9 meters also burst into tears at the moment. He quickly stepped forward and held his elder brother's hand. The two brothers looked at each other. I miss you so much!"

Zhu Biao: "..."

The author has something to say: Zhu Biao: Brothers are all debts.

Mu Bai: I agree. Fortunately, I only have one younger brother.

Zhu Biao: ...I can't be the only one with this kind of pain.

According to the latest rules of the old Zhu's family, the emperor's grandsons have to come to Yingtianfu to go to school after school age.

You have obtained a number of cousins, you can form a carrot head army, may I ask if you want to form a team.

The emperor's eldest grandson, Mu Xiaobai, who was covered in radish heads:? ?

Zhu Biao: Cub, cousins ​​are also younger brothers. You don’t have many younger brothers, but your uncles are all very good.
