The muddy path, pedestrians in coarse linen clothes coming and going, and the wheels rolled over the street of Qinglefang where it had just rained.
Pedestrians wore boots, cloth shoes and black mud on the hem of their gowns.
A child with a comb in the common corner, a woman with a basket in her arms, and a young man with a rough head.
From the perspective, it is a continuous ancient architecture, one after another carved railings and jade blocks.
"Shizi, you have just recovered from a serious illness. You should not stay out for a long time."
In an ordinary ox cart, a teenager gently lifted the curtain of the cart. His handsome and pale face could not hide his sadness. The teeth clenched the thin lips, and the bright eyes were full of strangeness and hesitation.
"No, it doesn't matter." Jiang Chengxiao paused and then responded to the servants in words that people of this era could understand.
His eyes stopped on the street, on the dirty muddy path, on the ancient buildings one after another.
He saw it in the film and television city in his last life, but now he has seen it with his own eyes.
True!
The other thing is quiet, without the hustle and bustle of modern cities and vehicles coming and going. The means of transportation here is a ox cart. Occasionally, Jin Wuwei passes by on a fine horse.
It's really quiet. Everyone here is talking about the customs.
This era does not conform to any dynasty he knew in his previous life. Its name is Dajin.
He wears a noble identity as a young man. He is now the emperor's uncle and the only son of the king. Since his birth, this teenager has been in poor health and has been living in the palace all the year round. He has no bad reputation of the second generation of the emperor, the capital and the nobles.
This is a good thing for him. The fewer people know him, the better.
"What a handsome young man, do you want to come and sit here for a while?" The girl in the Yuhua Building waved a handkerchief to Jiang Chengxiao.
Uncle Mai, the servant, snorted coldly and sat on the cart with a cane in his hand. He turned his head and said, "Son, it's time to go back to the house. Doctor Li asked you to go back to drink medicine to recuperate."
Jiang Chengxiao took a look at the woman, put down the curtain, and a faint voice came from the car, "Let's go."
Uncle Mai pulled a cane on the old cow, and it gave a "Mou" cry, slowly stepped forward with four feet, and pulled the carriage with two wheels to get up.
Uncle Mai said as he drove, "Don't be obsessed with the prostitutes, my husband. They are very dirty. When the lord comes back to preside over and crown the ceremony for my husband, he will find him a good and clean concubine."
Jiang Chengxiao endured the shaking of the ox cart, and when he heard Uncle Mai's words, he felt yearning. But he was not in such a mood after a while, because the ox cart without shock absorption was too shaking.
The ox cart leaves Qingle Square and enters Fufeng Square.
His home, Dai Wangfu, is on this street.
Fufeng Square is a famous street in the capital of the emperor, which is located within the third ring road of the capital of the emperor in later generations. The families living here are either royal relatives or dignitaries. Civilian merchants are not qualified to enter this street.
In the Dai Wang Mansion, eighteen long halberds were listed in front of the mansion, and two stone lions were placed on the left and right separately, which was majestic and awe inspiring.
Seeing that Uncle Mai was driving the car, the front guard of the Dai Royal Residence immediately understood that the son was sitting in the car, and immediately asked the servants to open the side door to greet the son.
The ox cart turned a corner and entered the Dai Wang Mansion.
Jiang Chengxiao doesn't know how big the palace is. According to later generations, the villa has the grade of a golf course. There are large outdoor buildings such as a racetrack and a martial arts hall in the palace.
Mai Shuzeng told him that there were hundreds of people in the palace.
When the ox cart stopped, Uncle Mai opened the curtain and let Jiang Chengxiao help him down.
It's not that he is affectant, but that he is so weak that he is cold and sweating before taking two steps. He has started to exercise these days.
"Dalang."
A plump and beautiful woman came up, took Jiang Chengxiao's hand and asked Uncle Mai, "What did the medical officer say? How are you getting better?"
"Take it easy, Princess. Doctor Li said that the son is much better than he used to be. But now he should go out less and cultivate himself behind closed doors." Uncle Mai replied respectfully.
The princess nodded slightly, then turned to look at Jiang Chengxiao, "Dalang, I cooked you a soup of tremella and lotus seeds for my mother. Do you want to follow my mother or let Xiuyu take it to the yard for you?"
"No, I'm not hungry."
Jiang Chengxiao's voice was a little stiff. He took his hand out of the princess's hand and lifted his feet to leave.
It's not how the princess is, but that she can't get close. He has not been here for a long time, and he has little affection for the princess.
In fact, this body was not close to the princess in the past, because the princess was not his biological mother.
It all starts with his name, Jiang Chengxiao. Jiang is his surname, his seniority, and Xiao is his first name.
But the word "owl" is not a good word. The owl is a mother eating bird. His birth mother died in order to give birth to him. His father Dai Wang and his mother had deep feelings, so they didn't like him. After giving birth to him, they named him Dai Wang.
As for his father, whether the acting king regretted giving his son this name, Jiang Chengxiao did not know before, nor does he know now.
However, his position as the son of the king was very firm. There were more than 30 concubines serving the king, but only he had one son.
The palace is not as full of intrigue and intrigue as it is written in TV dramas.
The princess looked at the child's back and sighed silently.
His yard is very large. Opening the door, you can see a peach forest. This season, peach blossoms are in full bloom, and white powder is very pleasing to the eyes.
There was a pavilion in the peach forest. He went to the pavilion and sat down. Uncle Mai came up to make tea for him and said, "Lang Jun, the princess is a good person."
Jiang Chengxiao didn't say anything. How much does a good man have to do with him.
"Uncle Mai, go to the library and get me some books to read."
Uncle Mai wondered: "Lang Jun, how can our servants enter the Library at will? What books you want to read can only be taken by the Princess."
Jiang Chengxiao paused for a moment, and then said, "Go to find the princess and bring me some history books."
"History books?"
Uncle Mai muttered and then stepped back. My husband likes military books on weekdays, but he suddenly likes history books.
Jiang Chengxiao glanced at the tea made by Uncle Mai, shook his head and scattered it under the root of the peach tree.
It seems that tea in this era is just sun dried tea without tea frying, and ginger and other things are added in it, which makes it taste strange.
But it can really be used for heating.
It was very quiet in the palace. The ancient quiet had a feeling of "loneliness". Because there is no mobile phone in his hand, he doesn't know what is happening in the world.
There was no sound around. The bird on the tree might be a sound.
"Alas, I can't go back."
Jiang Chengxiao sighed, looked at the peach blossom, but felt a little bleak.
Fortunately, he has a good status now. If he is from an ordinary family, he will jump into the well now.
After a while, Uncle Mai got the history book from the Princess, which was as tall as a snail.
"Lang Jun, here we are."
The purpose of looking for history books is naturally to know the world, where the dynasty is, and to understand its own position.
He plunged into the book and had a hard time reading it. After all, it was all ancient Chinese and he could only find keywords.
For example, in the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", after reading the names of the two emperors in front of him, he turned over and looked for them.
Gradually, he has some eyebrows.
History turned a corner in the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Wei unified the world, and then the "Rebellion of the Two Kings" broke out.
The war broke out in the south, and all the powerful clans established themselves as kings.
During the two hundred years, the northern foreign tribes invaded and fought in rags, and the four dynasties in the southern country changed continuously until the Taizu of the dynasty took the place of the Northern Wei Dynasty and conquered the southern Chen Dynasty, ruling the whole country.
After learning this, he had a strange feeling. Is there a senior who has traveled through the Three Kingdoms?
But this is also wrong. According to the urine nature of those who have passed through the predecessors, their science and technology trees must be full now. The Han people have already conquered every inch of the earth.
But none of them.
"Is it parallel spacetime..."
He had some impressions of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Song, Qi, Liang and Chen dynasties, but he did not know about the Jin Dynasty.
Or, according to the history of his universe, it should be the Sui Dynasty now?
At the thought of this, he suddenly shook all over.
"Brother, it's time to eat." A clear voice sounded.
Jiang Chengxiao's thoughts returned and looked down. A girl in a light green skirt stood beside her.
This girl is his sister, the daughter of the current princess, Princess Leping, who was granted by the late emperor.
"Lang Jun, I can't stop the little princess." Uncle Mai stood behind Princess Leping, looking embarrassed.
Jiang Chengxiao put down his book, looked at the little princess, said nothing, and turned into the attic.
"Uncle Mai, did Brother A blame Leping for disturbing him?" The little princess felt aggrieved.
Uncle Mai smiled awkwardly. "It shouldn't be, princess, don't think much about it."
