As the mother river of the Chinese nation, the Yellow River has flowed continuously, sometimes gently and sometimes violently over the thousands of years. The Yellow River, which has burst its banks and changed its course several times, has brought countless disasters, but the water erosion and sedimentation have changed its course every time.
Afterwards, the flooded area left extremely fertile soil, which allowed humans to breed. Depending on the violence or tranquility of the water, they multiplied from generation to generation and built a prosperous civilization.
The Chinese nation eventually radiated from this center. Around the Yellow River, settlements everywhere eventually developed into cities. Some of them lasted for thousands of years, while others were gradually submerged in the long river of time, leaving only their names and names.
In memory, among them, Bianliang City, Kaifeng Prefecture, is one of the brightest names.
Located at the tip of the huge alluvial plain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, Kaifeng Prefecture has been prosperous since ancient times. It has fertile soil, suitable climate, key geographical location and convenient water and land transportation connecting the north and south. The Xia Dynasty has been here since 2000 BC.
For the first time, the capital of a dynasty was built here, and then over a period of more than 4,000 years, a total of ten dynasties established their capitals here. The Yellow River gave birth to this city, and also continued to destroy it. With every major change of course, the old
The city was submerged, and after the water flowed over, a new city was picked up again. Kaifeng Mansion in 2000 AD was still an extremely prosperous city, but the past cities and memories were buried layer by layer under the mud of the Yellow River.
Can't see you again.
During the Wu Dynasty, Bianliang City in Kaifeng Prefecture was the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. This is a city that Ning Yi has no memory of. Kaifeng a thousand years later will be much taller than the city it is today. Theoretically, this city will be buried underground in many years.
The city seemed both old and young at the same time. Under the green rain curtain, the city's ancient and new buildings were mixed together, just like every rapidly developing city, with its hurried and uncoordinated old and new memories and contradictions.
With an atmosphere that can make people nostalgic and disgusting, it leaves traces of people's lives in the river of time.
Under this city, there are many traces of the ancient Xia Dynasty, the city wall of Daliang in the Warring States Period, and the ruins of Bianzhou in the Tang Dynasty. Thinking about it like this, I unconsciously felt a strange feeling in my heart. When I got off the boat,
, Ning Yi stamped his feet on the ground.
The pier in the rain is chaotic and noisy.
We have been traveling together since Jiangning. At this point, it is finally time to go our separate ways. Someone from the royal family came to hand over the birth date. The royal relatives and dignitaries who came all the way north also have their own relationships to find. There are relatives to meet.
.The flow of information at this time is not very flexible. With everyone heading north, there are various delays. It is difficult for people in the capital to estimate the exact time of arrival. Some people have higher status and are more self-sufficient in their status and face. As early as last night
He had already asked his servants to rush to the capital to report the news. At this time, some people who seemed to have high status were greeted at the pier. There were also people - like the little princess - whose status was not low. Kang Xian and others were worried
She was safe. She had already been informed of her arrival in the capital, and she would be asked to wait at the dock every day. This kind of treatment was the most sincere and the best way to prove her identity.
Everything in the Secret Investigation Department is not as rigorous as it was when it was fully functioning. Wen Renbuer and others went to Beijing. The main thing was to pay a visit to Qin Siyuan. He had originally been a disciple of Qin Siyuan, but by this time he had already docked. In the afternoon
He was going to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pay a visit. As for Ning Yi, he should have gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion. However, there were Xiaochan, Su Wenyu, Su Yanping, Yunzhu, Jin'er, and four or five more trustworthy subordinates in the Su Mansion.
There are many people and things to protect the hospital, so it is impossible to bring all the people there, so we have to find an inn to stay in the afternoon. As for the three brothers of the Qi family, Lu Junyi and others, they are already very familiar with each other.
, you might as well stay in the inn together.
When I first came to Bianliang, I was actually unfamiliar with the place. Fortunately, there was an experienced person from the Su family accompanying me, the shopkeeper Liao who came to Bianliang to add insult to injury during the Huangshang incident. This person’s name was Liao Sanhua.
The shopkeeper of the Su family is considered very trustworthy and has experience in doing business in the capital, so this time he was asked to follow him to serve as a front-line stand.
When everyone was discussing where to stay in the hall at the pier that was used to welcome distinguished guests, Zhou Pei led a few people over to say hello. They were from the Chongwang Palace in the capital. In the next few days, she would probably stay in Chongqing.
He stayed in the palace until after the Queen Mother's birthday party, so he came over to ask where Ning Yi lived.
After what happened along the way, she already admired Ning Yi quite a lot. In the past few days, she spent more time pestering Ning Yi to ask this and that. As usual, the number of times she had to say a word or two unconvinced was greatly reduced.
, even if Ning Yi compiled a list of the top 100 masters in the world, she would make a copy of it and think about the mystery. If possible, she would be more willing to learn from such a "teacher", but
Of course, most of the time, she has a general understanding and knows that this is impossible.
At this time, Ning Yi and others were planning to stay at the Fuxiang Inn, which is said to be the largest and most expensive in Bianliang, as recommended by shopkeeper Liao. When the name was mentioned, a palace steward who followed Zhou Pei also said: "Fuxiang Tower, where is
It's quite big, but I'm just worried that there won't be any vacancies. If you can't move in by then, you might as well go to the Wenhui Building on Taimiao Street. That inn has some connections with the palace." The steward seemed to be a eunuch, but he had a gentle attitude.
Respectfully, he said and handed over a name card. It seems that Prince Chong's Palace and Prince Kang's Palace have a good relationship. The other party did this, and the little princess felt proud.
"Where the teacher lives, I will ask Grandpa Qin tomorrow. If anything happens, the teacher will come to Prince Chong's Mansion to find me." After Zhou Pei finished speaking, he put his hands on his chest and bowed slightly before leaving. Fifteen
The young girl looks noble and generous.
After Zhou Pei left, Chen Jingui came over and said a few words to Ning Yi, thanking him for his help along the way. He also said that he knew some people in the capital, and if he needed anything, he would just ask. After Chen Jingui,
It was Li Shishi who came to look for Ning Yi.
At this time, everyone went back to their homes to find their mothers, and after saying goodbye to everyone, Master Li was going back to Fanlou, so he came over to ask about Ning Yi's residence. In fact, maybe Ning Yi would stay in an inn for the first day or two.
, I will still have to buy a few yards in the capital from now on.
"If you have time, Brother Ning might as well come to Fanlou. There are many talented people in the capital. Brother Ning still remembers Zhou Bangyan and Zhou Meicheng. He has always been obsessed with your lyrics. Of course, the most important thing is my little sister.
I hope to get together with Brother Ning, Brother Yu, and Brother Chen."
Her attitude was so sincere and sincere that Ning Yi felt it was hard to refuse. Of course, there was no need for him to refuse such a thing, so he nodded and agreed. Master Li was also slightly blessed and left with a smile. Although there was something in his figure that was not
Zhou Pei is as noble as Zhou Pei, but Ting Ting is graceful and decent, as if the innocence of a girl is combined with the charm of a woman without losing the sense of purity. If Yunzhu is like an elegant and pure lily, she probably looks like a lily.
Narcissus is pure but with a bit of natural flamboyance. Perhaps because of this, Yunzhu cannot blend into an environment like a brothel, but she is able to do so with ease and contentment.
"This Miss Li is so amazing..." At this time, Yunzhu, who was dressed plainly in plain clothes and Jing Chai, looked at the background of Master Li leaving after bidding farewell to everyone, and couldn't help but tilted his head and sighed. This was probably pure admiration.
She also had a charming temperament when she tilted her head. Ning Yi looked at it and smiled. Yuan Jin'er was dressing up in men's clothing at this time, sitting on the luggage and eating, humming disapprovingly.
The rain was still falling, so the group rented a carriage and left. After passing two streets, the unique mess at the pier gradually subsided, but when you opened the curtain and looked outside, the street scene still looked crowded, with high and low buildings crowded together.
Wandering wide and narrow alleyways, under the rain curtain, the scene in front of you is sometimes old and sometimes new, new taverns, old teahouses, high and low eaves overlap each other, sometimes you pass by an old courtyard, the walls of the courtyard are covered with moss
, sometimes passing by a newly built small building, the red paint is washed brightly in the rain. There is a big stone lion in front of the majestic mansion, a tall flagpole in the courtyard of the escort agency, warriors carrying weapons, sheltering from the rain under the eaves, and brothels.
Beautiful lanterns, some with clothes and colorful silks hanging on the upper floors, women with longing in their eyes looking absentmindedly at the passers-by upstairs, singing, laughter, laughter and curses coming from some windows, the voices were muffled by the rain.
Submerged. Ancient trees grow either in a corner of the courtyard, at the end of a bridge or on a street corner, supporting their lush leaves in this ancient city. In the distance, there are towering palace walls.
We walked all the way from the pier to the Fuxiang Inn. When we wanted to stay, we found that the Fuxiang Inn was full. Then Ning Yi and his party turned to the Wenhui Building that the steward of Prince Chong's Mansion had mentioned. It was indeed a grand and luxurious inn.
After Ning Yi and others took out their name cards and rented two courtyards to live in, it was almost evening. The rain had not stopped yet. Lamps were lit and lanterns were hung in the inn. It was bright and many people were cheering in the hall.
They were talking loudly, and they were talking about something that had just been reported yesterday: Guo Yaoshi, the commander-in-chief of the Liao Dynasty's ever-victorious army, had surrendered to the Wu Dynasty with the help of Zhuo and Yizhou.
As in later generations, in the capital, everyone likes to talk about politics. Ning Yi only knew about this matter two days ago, but it is good news after all, and there is no cover-up from above. At this time, the Jin Dynasty has achieved successive victories in the attack on Liao.
Victory, but the Wu Dynasty has always been thundering and raining. Previously, 100,000 people could not defeat 10,000 people, which made people very unconfident. Even though Tong Guan has now led his army to the north, before there is a victory, the Wu Dynasty army will not win.
It is hard to give people confidence. However, the Ever-Victorious Army was originally composed of Liaodong people. It was originally designed to fight against the Jurchens and was called the Resentment Army. Although it may not be possible to win against the Jurchens, its combat power is still extremely strong. The imperial court
Bian, this is obviously how it is promoted.
Wu Dynasty has been fighting for Guo Yaoshi's resentful army from the beginning, especially Qin Siyuan. He knows that Wu Dynasty's army is not strong enough in the front, so the Secret Investigation Department has spent a lot of effort behind the scenes, using various methods to eliminate one and eliminate the other.
All the long-term methods are being used. This time, it should be a big victory for the Secret Investigation Department...

It’s hard to find the feeling of Bianliang... (To be continued.)
