After Xu Qing and his family arrived in Chang'an City, they lived in the Hanwang Mansion in the center of Chang'an, which was specially built.
The specifications of Xiao Ye and Xianwang's palace are not as good as those of the Han Palace, but these two people obviously don't care how they live there.
Nowadays, Weizhou can be said to have become the largest factory in Chu State, with sufficient raw materials, sufficient labor force and clear division of labor.
And Chang'an City is the place where the things they produce are exchanged for wealth.
In the palace of the New Han Dynasty, Xiao Ruxue was claiming her new room, Su Qian and Li Mingyue were also cleaning up, and a group of maids and servants were busy with them.
The family also tacitly agreed to reserve a room for Long Bing'er and tidied it up.
Although Long Binger is not here.
Today's Chang'an City basically has the scale and framework, but the city wall has not yet been repaired.
However, there is no rush to build the city wall.
Because although Chang'an here is large, it does not appear as a city.
Since it's not a city, it doesn't really matter whether there are walls or not.
Anyway, there are many soldiers here. The three countries have to station troops in their own garrison areas and demarcate areas for patrolling. There is no need to worry about people committing crimes.
The defense is extremely tight.
This can be said to be the intersection of the intelligence networks of the three countries, where all the spies gather.
Therefore, there is no rush to build the city wall. You can take your time.
After moving, Xu Qing and Xiao Ye were walking on the street.
Xiao Ye looked at Chang'an City, which was still brightly lit at night, and couldn't help but sigh: "It really looks like a prosperous time."
Xu Qing walked beside Xiao Ye and said: "Chang'an can become a city that never sleeps, and it is also inseparable from the joint efforts of the three countries of the Central Plains. If it were not for expelling the barbarians from the outside and shaking hands with the inside for peace, An would have such a scene."
Xiao Ye said: "If you ask me, the most important thing is that there is someone who is stupid and rich."
Xu Qing couldn't help but nodded when he heard Xiao Ye's words, and he was convinced.
What Xiao Ye said does make sense.
Without the three hundred thousand taels given by Zhao Guo, how could Chang'an be prosperous today?
I’m afraid we won’t be able to see such a scene until next year.
Soon hundreds of Kongming lanterns flew up in Chang'an City, and soon thousands of fireworks exploded into the sky.
In an instant, it seemed as if the city of Chang'an was reflected as brightly as day.
Moreover, there are many couples coming out of the nearby jewelry store. After coming out, there are already a pair of glass accessories on their waists that can be put together.
There is also an exquisite wooden box in his hand.
There is a sentence engraved on the wooden box: Love is as crisp as glass, and mandarin ducks grow old together.
This sentence was written by Xu Qing, who asked the scholar to write it down, and the style suddenly came up.
Thank you Daru.
Nowadays, this glass shop only sells such pairs of glass accessories. It is said that the shop owner has a unique craftsman spirit and only does one thing in his life. Every piece of glass is carefully selected, and the master carves each piece with great care and is worth a lot of money.
The colored glaze has become the most simple and unpretentious token of love between boys and girls.
If you want an engagement token, you have to pay extra...
Xu Qing was moved by the shameless propaganda of this glass shop. He was really impressed by the true story of the profiteer!
Colored glass is bound to love, and even men and women from aristocratic families will come here to buy colored glass as a token of love.
It's simply top-notch marketing.
Fortunately, Xu Qing is shameless, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to do such a profiteer thing.
Xiao Ye looked at Chang'an City, where the streets were full of lanterns and bustling with activity, and said, "Brother Xu, this seems a little too prosperous, right?"
Xu Qing said: "Today is different. Chang'an does not celebrate like this every day."
"It's different?" Xiao Ye asked doubtfully, "What's the difference?"
Xu Qing said: "Today is November 11th."
"November 11th?" Xiao Ye asked doubtfully: "Is there any difference?"
Xu Qing said; "Double Eleven Carnival Shopping Festival, there is a 20% discount on items from Guoshangyuan. Brother Xiao said, should we celebrate it well?"
"Carnival shopping festival?" Xiao Ye was surprised: "You can still have fun like this? You actually have to create a festival just to buy things?"
Xu Qing said: "How is it? Isn't it very creative?"
Xiao Ye said: "It's just that the name is not very good, Carnival Shopping Festival... it's too straightforward and vulgar."
There is a kind of vulgarity that Xiao Ye finds vulgar.
Xiao Ye, the most uneducated person, said this, so it seems that it is indeed vulgar.
No way, think about the explanation of the Central Plains, Lantern Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Double Ninth Festival, Hungry Ghost Festival...
Even the ghost festival is so elegant and nice.
Is something like the Carnival Shopping Festival also worthy of being the name of a festival in the Central Plains?
What a loss!
Because the existence of this carnival shopping festival has even lowered the style of other festivals in the Central Plains.
Xu Qing, who was born with a bad name, sighed, waved his hand and said, "I'll let Da Ru think of a nice one someday."
When you are in doubt, leave it to a great scholar.
There will always be a scholar with outstanding literary talents who will submit a satisfactory answer.
At this moment, Xiao Ruxue suddenly reached out and picked up a shiny object, and then quickly held it in front of Xu Qing: "Husband, husband! Look, it's snowing!"
With bright lights, fireworks and falling snow, is there any more beautiful scenery in the world?
Xiao Ruxue, who has been a wife for a long time, is jumping up and down at this moment, completely unaware that she is already an adult.
It seemed that Xiao Ruxue at this moment was still the lively and lovely Yongle Princess that Xu Qing first saw in Yongzhou.
At this time, Xiao Ning'er was being held by Xuan'er's hand while looking at Xue'er's mother, who was more lively than him.
Maybe at this moment, Xiao Ning'er is thinking: When will Mother Xue'er become more mature like him?
The princess became a princess, and the princess became Mrs. Xu. Unexpectedly, many years have passed in the blink of an eye.
From being alone to being such a big family now.
From a small catcher who could make things difficult for even a county lieutenant, he became the current His Highness the King of Han.
What a huge change in just a few years!
However, the one who has changed the most is not Xu Qing but Xiao Ruxue.
After all, it took Xu Qing several years to become like this, while Xiao Ruxue only took shape in a little more than a month, with two hours of unremitting efforts every day.
Although except for Xiao Ning'er and Xu Qing, she still can't compare to anyone in the family.
But at any rate, there has been considerable improvement!
No!
More than just an obvious improvement?
This is simply a difference between cloud and mud!
I believe that if we continue at this pace, it is not impossible to catch up from behind.
Of course, it is possible, but the road is still very difficult.
Although Xu Qing gave Xiao Ye special care, others only had their turn once every three or four days, but Xiao Ruxue only had one turn every day and it took longer than them.
But he has a good foundation!
When several other people in the family grew a little, Xu Qing needed all his strength to help Xiao Ruxue catch up.
