Capital Datang

Chapter 260 Eighth Congested Road

On the cement road from Luoyang to Chang'an, countless horses and horses are galloping. www 8 9 read c. m8 9 阅读网 This concrete avenue is the first concrete road built by Datang, so the requirements are very strict in every aspect. The entire road is fifty steps wide, enough for twelve large carriages to run side by side.However, because of Li Yin's proposal, a separation zone was added in the middle of the road, which was divided into left and right sides. Cars, horses and pedestrians who came and went kept to the right, which reduced the risk of collisions between cars and horses, and also allowed the cars and horses coming and going to travel safely. Let go of the speed and run.

It's just that a strange scene happened on this cement road today. On the right side of the road facing Chang'an, countless cars and horses were rumbling, and they were racing against time to drive towards Chang'an. Although there was a gap between the cars and horses , but the speed is still affected, and compared with the crowded right lane, the left lane is very rare. That is to say, today's road to Chang'an accounted for the vast majority of horses and carriages.

Li Yin and his party also had dozens of carriages squeezed between the carriages and horses, but compared to others, their carriages were surrounded by thousands of guards on horseback, so no one dared to get too close, but there were too many people on the road Now, although the others knew that this convoy must be a big shot, they had nowhere to hide if they wanted to, so Li Yin and his carriage couldn't get up fast.

"Wow~ there are so many people!" Cai'er in Li Yin's carriage leaned on the window, and shouted excitedly while watching. She grew up in Taiwan. Although there are towns there, most of them are sparsely populated. Naturally, I have never seen so many people crowded on the road.Capital Datang 268

"Liu Ying, when I went back to Guanzhong this time, I found out that it has changed a lot. When I passed by Luoyang two days ago, I almost didn't dare to recognize it!" Yang Yan in the carriage smiled while stroking his beard.He was originally an open-minded person, since he agreed to go back to Chang'an, he put all his knots aside, and appreciated the customs and customs on the road while walking.

"Hehe, Uncle, you haven't arrived in Chang'an yet. When you arrive in Chang'an, you will definitely be surprised. That is the real prosperous place, several times stronger than Dengzhou and Luoyang!" Before Li Yin could answer, Li Ke rushed to speak.They took a special four-horse carriage, which was not only more stable and faster, but also wider, and it would not feel crowded if more than a dozen people sat on it.

"Third brother is right, and if uncle is interested, he can also watch the upcoming first sports meeting of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, not only athletes from all over the country will participate in the competition, but also athletes from surrounding countries will be there. It is very lively, you see the reason why our road is so crowded is because the Datang Games will be held soon!" Li Yin also said with a smile.

Last year he was planning to hold the first sports meeting of the Tang Dynasty, but due to lack of preparation time and the wrong season, many events could not be held. In the end, he had to hold a simplified version of the Winter Games, and the real sports meeting will be held in this year's It was held in the sixth month, and now it is the middle of May, so naturally countless people rushed to Chang'an.

"No... No way, are these people going to Chang'an to participate in some kind of sports meeting?" Yang Wei asked with wide eyes, a little shocked.From what he saw on the road, it is estimated that there are at least tens of thousands of people. If so many people are participating in the sports meeting, then the scale of this sports meeting is too big, right?

When Li Yin heard this, he hurriedly explained with a smile: "Uncle misunderstood, the number of people participating in the sports meeting is actually a small number, the main reason is that once the sports meeting starts, countless people will definitely watch it, and this is undoubtedly a huge opportunity for all businesses. Business opportunities, so most of the people we saw on the road are merchants in several cities near Chang'an, and you can see that most of the carriages in front of them are transporting various goods."

Yang Yan looked at Li Min's fingers, and he found that the carriages in front and behind were all carrying large and small packages of goods, and judging by the attire of the people on the carriages, they were indeed fellows in the firm.Only then did he laugh dumbly and said: "I see, but what is this sports meeting for? How could it attract so many people?"

As soon as Yang Yan asked about this, Li Ke immediately laughed and pointed at Li Min and said, "Uncle, you have found the right one. This sports meeting was created by Liu Lang, and we held it once last winter."

When Yang Hao heard that it was his own nephew who made it, he was naturally more interested.Cai'er, who was lying on the car window next to her, also heard about the sports meeting, immediately jumped out of her seat and ran over to sit next to Li Yin, and asked curiously: "Second cousin, please explain the sports meeting to me and my father." , isn't it fun?"

"Haha~, we, Cai'er, are the smartest, and got to the point right away, this sports meeting is really fun!" Li Yin rubbed Cai'er's little head, and smiled affectionately.At the beginning, their motivation for organizing the sports meeting was for fun. Although there were other meanings, they were not in Li Yin's consideration.

Next, Li Yin explained the sports meeting in detail, and Yang Yan was amazed at the result. As for Cai'er, who was only ten years old, she yearned for it even more. Stars almost appeared in her eyes when she looked at Li Yin. I really didn't expect that my second cousin could come up with such a fun idea, and then I would have to watch every game in the sports meeting in person.

Because there were too many people on the road, Li Yin and his convoy were caught between the carriages and horses, and they couldn't get up to speed at all.Although the retrograde road next to it is very empty, and there are passages connecting the left and right sides of the isolation belt, but no one dares to drive in the reverse direction. The punishment is too heavy. Officials will check every other section of the road. If someone is found to dare to drive in the wrong direction, the transportation and goods will be confiscated, and a huge fine will be imposed. In severe cases, they may even face a lawsuit and be locked up for several years. Not surprising at all.So in order to catch a little time, there is no need to take such a big risk.

Of course, driving in the reverse direction is not absolutely forbidden. In the newly added laws of the Tang Dynasty, there is a situation where driving in the reverse direction is allowed, that is, when encountering an emergency military situation, the messenger who reports the letter can drive on the road at will, including driving in the reverse direction. And even if he hits someone, he is innocent, and the person hit may even be punished. After all, the military situation is urgent and there is no delay.

Li Yin is a prince, and there are Li Ke, Li Yun, and Li Zhen in the convoy, which add up to four princes, but even so, their convoy still drove honestly on the right, after all, they did not cross the boundary.Firstly, this road was proposed by Li Yin, and of course he must take the lead in obeying the rules on the road. Secondly, although they are princes, they do have privileges in certain aspects, but they are not unsupervised. For example, if they dare to go against the road , if a certain bold censor is asked to participate in the next book, although it will not be a big deal, it will definitely make Li Shimin unhappy, so when it is time to keep a low profile, you should keep a low profile.

After chatting with Yang Yan and Cai'er for a while, Li Yin made an excuse to have something to do, and then under Cai'er's dissatisfied gaze, Yang Yan's and Li Ke's teasing gazes, Li Yin got off the carriage with a smile, and ran to the back of the carriage. in a carriage.

This carriage is smaller than the one in front of Yang Hao, but it is also very comfortable. The dozen or so guards riding beside it are not from Li Yin's people, but from Cheng's mansion. These people are all sent by Madam Cheng. It's for Mengxue, so don't ask, the one sitting in this car is naturally Mengxue.

Li Yin came to the carriage, greeted the guards next to him, and then got into the carriage directly. These guards all knew the relationship between their young lady and Li Yin, and they were also familiar with Li Yin, so they naturally smiled knowingly and did not stop them.

As soon as Li Yin got into the carriage, he heard a noise from inside the carriage. When he opened the door, he found that Mengxue was holding a silver needle in her left hand and holding Chongchong's arm in her right hand, laughing and about to give it to her. The cowardly Chongchong hid away in fright, but the space in the carriage was limited, no matter how she tried to hide, she couldn't escape her lady's 'claws'.

Fortunately, Li Yin came in at this moment, and Chongchong finally found a savior. With a 'whoosh', he hid behind Li Yin, and at the same time said in a timid voice: "My lord, help me, Miss is bullying Chongchong again!" Tang 268

Cui Mengxue didn't expect Li Yin to come in suddenly, she doesn't look like a lady in her current appearance, plus Chongchong's "uncle", it made Mengxue feel ashamed and angry, she glared at Chongchong, and then hurriedly sat down. Get up, stroke your messy hair behind your ears, show an awkward smile to Li Yin and say, "You're here!"

After getting along for this period of time, Mengxue has completely accepted Li Yin.And when getting along, Li Yin found that Mengxue was not as quiet as she seemed on the surface, and occasionally when she was alone, she would show her lively nature, so for today's situation, Li Yin It's not strange for a long time.

Li Yin sat down with a smile, and drove Chongchong to the corner of the carriage, and then said, "Mengxue, we can return to Chang'an the day after tomorrow at the latest, have you really made up your mind?"

"Well, one person's power is limited. If you want to treat more people, you need a large number of doctors, so I also want to open a medical school of my own like Dr. Sun!" Cui Mengxue said firmly.

"Okay, if that's the case, then take advantage of this time to teach at Datang Medical College and get acquainted with the management and teaching of all aspects of the medical school. After we get married, I will take you to our own I will build you a medical school that is bigger than here in Chang'an!" Seeing that Mengxue had made up her mind, Li Yin nodded and said.

When Cui Mengxue heard the word 'married', she couldn't help blushing, but when she heard Li Yin promised to build a bigger medical school, she couldn't help showing excitement on her face. She has been obsessed with medicine all her life, only to cure diseases and save people. It can be said that she is a real doctor. Now that she can find a better way to save people, she is naturally more willing to do it.It's just that Mengxue's excitement lasted for a while, but she thought of something embarrassing for her, and a trace of worry appeared on her face. .
