Chapter 19 Arriving in Chang'an
Ten days have passed since the last time in Hongnong.

Wei Qing rushed over that night, and Huo Shan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The unexpected situation set up a flag. Huo Shan was really afraid that something would happen to him!

Because Wei Qing came back late, everyone rested for another day, for a total of two days in Hongnong.

They set off on the third day, walked for another ten days, and arrived at the boundary of Chang'an yesterday, which is less than twenty miles away from Chang'an City.

In the early morning of the second day, the army was packed up and ready to go when Huo Shan jumped out suddenly:
"Your Majesty, please be the vanguard and clear the way!"

"Hahahaha!"

Liu Che was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, and waved his hands:

"Yes, I ordered Feng Che Duwei Huo Shan to lead the Sanbaiqimen as the vanguard, open roads when encountering mountains, and build bridges when encountering water!"

Liu Che said a lot of clichés, as far as the mountains on this road come from, even if there is water, there are bridges on the water...

And if the emperor is ambushed in Chang'an, then this big man is almost finished!
But the grandpa and grandson had a lot of fun!
For some reason, when he arrived in Chang'an, Huo Shan let go a lot, maybe he felt that the catastrophe in his life had officially left him.

However, although Huo Shan had the intention of playing tricks a little bit, the main reason was not this. When Taishan Fengchan came back, wouldn't he report the situation to his ancestors?
Huo Shan didn't want to stand in front of the Gaomiao gate for a whole day!
But as everyone knows, the more you want to hide, the more you can't hide. Some people can make you wish?

.........

After traveling for an hour, Huo Shan had already seen the city walls of Chang'an City, and he didn't feel any shock in his heart. Compared with Tang Chang'an City, Han Chang'an City was very small, and it was not as square and square as planned. It looks a bit like a horseshoe.

There are twelve gates in the entire city, except Xi’an Gate in the south of Weiyang Palace, Zhangcheng Gate in the west, Fu’an Gate in the south of Changle Palace, and Bacheng Gate in the east. Each gate has a main street leading to the city.

The width of the main street is about 60 meters, and it is divided into three parts. The emperor walks in the middle, the roads taken by ordinary officials and the people on both sides, and the canals on both sides.

Although these eight gates all have a main street leading to Chang'an, they are not connected from east to west like Chang'an City in Tang Dynasty. Enter from the east and follow a main road to exit directly from the west.

Just because the planning is not done well, the whole city looks very complicated. Although it is complicated, it is actually quite easy to understand if it is right. Overall, it can be divided into three parts: south, central and north, and left and right into east and west.

After entering Chang'an from Anmen in the middle of the south, you will arrive at the south part. The east area of ​​the south part is Gaomiao and Changle Palace, Changle Palace is north of Gaomiao, and the west area is Weiyang Palace.

At the top of the middle between Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace is the famous arsenal, which stores a large number of weapons and armor, all of which can arm tens of thousands of troops in an instant.

When the Seven Kingdoms rebelled, Zhou Yafu transferred weapons and armor from here, and armed 10,000+ soldiers and horses overnight.

The prime minister's mansion is below the arsenal, and below the prime minister's mansion is Shangguanli, which is the residence of important ministers and ministers. The right internal history is also the future Jingzhaoyin, and the official residence is also here. These constitute the southern part of Chang'an City.

The west part of the central part of Chang'an City can be divided into three parts. The common people's residence on the left is where the Gui Palace will be located in the future.

The part on the right near the south is the location of the North Palace, the residence of some concubines, which has not yet been expanded by Liu Che.

The part near the north is the residence of the common people.

The eastern part of the central part is the residence of common people, and the official residence of Zuo Neishi is also here, mixed with some temples. These two parts form the central part of Chang'an City.

The northern part at the top is severely divided into two levels. The northern part of the eastern area is very simple and is the residence of common people. Liu Che will build a Mingguang Palace here in the future.

The northern part of the western region is quite complicated, the East Market and the West Market are located here, and many official residences such as the Duwei Mansion and the Manyi Mansion are also located here!

As for why it is so complicated, one reason is that it was not well planned, and the other is that there was no money in the early Han Dynasty. Compared with Daxing City in Sui Dynasty, which is Chang'an City in Tang Dynasty, the capital city seems a bit small.

There was no land in the city for expansion, so Liu Che had no choice but to build Jianzhang Palace outside Chang'an City, and even the Prince's Bowang Garden was outside Chang'an City!

This is also the reason why the Sui Dynasty wanted to build Daxing City. Han Chang'an can't use it, and it can't show the grandeur of the Sui Dynasty. Let's build a new one!
.........

Huo Shan led three hundred soldiers and horses along the road to the Qingming Gate in the middle of the east side of Chang'an. There were not many people entering and leaving the gate, only a few people came and went. This is not normal. Huo Shan had some guesses, and they should all run away. The south side is waiting to collect the reward money.

"Little Junhou, you should be in Anmen!"

"go!"

Everyone immediately turned their horses around, started from Qingming Gate, followed Wangqu, passed through Bacheng Gate, Fu'an Gate, and finally came to the vicinity of Anmen, the southern gate of Chang'an.

Huo Shan saw that sure enough, the entire Anmen Gate was blocked, and there were so many people that he couldn't see the end at a glance. I'm afraid that all the people in the entire Chang'an City have come. Huo Shan was a little speechless, and he said after a long while:

"Our Majesty, we are really popular with the people!"

"That's natural!"

Sun Shang held his head high, like a little rooster, very proud!
"Let's go!"

Two hundred phases of the gate began to separate the people and make way for the road, and the remaining one hundred surrounded Huo Shan and walked towards the gate of Anmen City. Pointing and pointing, Huo Shan remained calm.

"The one who just passed was... the Qimen Army?"

A strong boy of eighteen or nineteen years old in rough linen clothes murmured to himself.

The old man next to him heard it: "Exactly!"

"Didn't you say that the Qimen army is His Majesty's personal guard? Who is that child in the middle? He looks only ten years old. How can he command Qimen?"

As soon as he said those words, everyone around him looked at him.

"Not from Chang'an?"

The boy bowed and said:

"The boy is from Lantian. I heard that there is a reward today, so... hehe!"

Speaking of this young man, I am a little embarrassed.

"That's no wonder, Lantian is not far away, you set off yesterday?"

"Exactly, I left yesterday evening and just arrived!"

"Excuse!"

The old man glanced at him in surprise. Lantian is almost a hundred miles away from Chang'an. You walk hundreds of miles at night. You have really good legs. You must be a good hand when you join the army. Maybe someday you will lose your hair. The old man is solemn to the young man Some.

"Do you know the champion?"

As soon as the old man finished asking, the young man puffed up his chest:
"Naturally, the family still enshrines the tablet of the champion!"

"The boy's wish is to follow a hero like the champion to kill the Huns and seal the wolves into Xuxu, but I haven't reached the age to join the army."

The young man was a little frustrated, but the old man gave a thumbs up:
"Young man has ambition!"

"Well, this one is the little Champion Hou, the son of the Champion Hou. After the death of the Champion Hou, the Little Champion Hou was brought into the palace by His Majesty. If there is anyone in the world who can drive the Qimen Army, it is estimated that apart from His Majesty That's him."

The young man suddenly realized that he had heard about the name of Little Champion Hou these days, nothing else, the news of ordering an army of 15 has spread throughout Guanzhong, and Guanzhong Shangwu is naturally sensitive to these news , not to mention that the protagonist is the champion!
The young man's heart was hot, and he began to imagine:
"I am eighteen this year, and there are five years left until I am 23. The little champion Hou is ten years old this year, and the champion Hou is seventeen, and his son will inherit his father's career. '

Everyone smiled knowingly when they saw his smirk, and then raised their heads to look at Huo Shan who was walking away. In fact, there are not a few people who have the same dream as him!

.........

Huo Shan came all the way to the gate of the city, only to see a young man standing in front of him with a height of about seven feet five, wearing a nine-panel head, a brocade robe, and a smile on his face, with a kindness in his brows. It's Prince Liu Shi, Huo Shan's cousin.

Behind Liu Ju stood a group of government officials who stayed in Chang'an, doctors of Taixue, and students. Huo Shan also saw a group of Confucian scholars who had never been with the people of Taixue. Huo Shan squinted his eyes and guessed their identities. , I feel a little disgusted in my heart.

"One of the culprits!" Huo Shan muttered softly.

Huo Shan got off his horse, walked up to him, and bowed:
"I serve Captain Che and attendant Huo Shan, and respectfully greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Gu'an!"

After Huo Shan got up, he immediately changed his expression, showing a big smile:

"Uncle Prince!"

"Haha, Zihou, hurry up and let Gu take a look!"

Huo Shan ran over, Liu Ju took two steps to meet him, a person behind him wanted to say that it was not proper manners, but was stopped by a person next to him!
"Has Zihou recovered from his illness?"

Huo Shan patted his chest, indicating that he was strong:
"The illness has been cured long ago. Didn't the prince's cousin find that Zihou has grown a lot taller and stronger?"

Liu Ju took a step back and observed carefully:
"Well, it has grown a lot taller and stronger!"

"That's right, I'm going to kill the Huns in the future, how can I not grow stronger!"

Huo Shan snarled, Liu Ju nodded with a smile on his face.

"By the way, I never told my mother and Aunt Pingyang about your illness, I'm afraid they will be worried!"

"understood!"

Huo Shan looked around, then said:

"Cousin Prince, please wait here. I will leave first, Sun Shang, take 50 people with me, and leave the rest to Cousin Prince to maintain the road!"

"promise!"

Sun Shang shouted, Liu Ju saw that Huo Shan turned around and left, and hurriedly shouted:

"Where are you going? Where is Your Majesty? You shouldn't leave now, you should wait here!"

Huo Shan waved his hand behind him:
"Your Majesty is right behind and will come later. I will go back to Changle Palace to see my aunt and grandmother. Remember to bring my cousin and aunt to Changle Palace for dinner at night. By the way, don't forget to call Your Majesty."

"There is a banquet in Weiyang Palace tonight..."

Liu Ju said in a daze, he felt that his nephew was a different person when he went out for a trip, and you were not like this before, and you didn't even know him anymore.
