Xiaoyouzhutian, send Yi Xiaochuan to the palace to start
Chapter 555 Chang'an, Li Shimin
After leaving Baihu Ridge, Liu Hao headed straight for Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty.
He had no idea at all that, after just one contact, Tang Seng actually had the idea of changing his allegiance. How could he avoid being brainwashed a second time?
It seems that the first time he killed a living being, the first time he drank alcohol, and Liu Hao’s previous words really made Tang Seng feel deeply touched.
After leaving Baihu Ridge, he soon arrived at the prosperous capital, Chang'an.
At this time, night slowly fell, like a huge black curtain gradually covering the earth.
Although there is a curfew in the Tang Dynasty, it is not yet time and the streets and alleys of Chang'an are still bustling with activity.
Liu Hao strolled leisurely on the streets of Chang'an, feeling the unique charm of this ancient capital.
The clean streets are bustling with traffic. On both sides of the streets, there are shops lined up with bright lights. The shouts of vendors can be heard one after another, and the dazzling array of goods is overwhelming.
Common people came and went, there were dignitaries in gorgeous clothes and common people in simple clothes. Most of them had smiles on their faces and looked really content.
At this time, under the governance of Li Er, Chang'an was well organized, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, which ushered in the prosperous Zhenguan era.
It’s not like when he first ascended the throne, when he needed money here and there and couldn’t make ends meet.
Now that the economy is booming, people can live and work in peace and contentment. At least they don't have to worry about having enough food to eat.
This is especially true in Chang'an, which was the capital of the Tang Dynasty. It must be said that Li Shimin did a really good job in this regard. Liu Hao also admired him very much. At least he had the means.
After strolling on Chang'an Avenue for about ten minutes, Liu Hao was attracted by the laughter coming from a restaurant. Liu Hao looked up and saw that it was a three-story restaurant of considerable size.
You can also smell the aroma of food coming from inside.
Liu Haoxin walked into the restaurant. The restaurant was full of guests and very lively. There were many local people from the Tang Dynasty and foreign merchants. He found a quiet corner and sat down.
A waiter saw Liu Hao walking in wearing fancy clothes and ran over to him, "Sir, what would you like to eat?"
Liu Hao took out a medium-sized gold cake and threw it to the waiter: "Would you like to take this?"
The waiter saw a golden cake half the size of his palm and was immediately overjoyed: "Yes, of course. I'll pick out the best ones for you right away."
Liu Hao smiled and nodded. Although gold was not the mainstream currency in that era and Kaiyuan Tongbao was generally used, this was Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and some larger stores would still accept it.
Soon, the waiter brought seven or eight delicious dishes and two jugs of wine.
"Sir, you still have extra money, please see..." the waiter said with some embarrassment after serving the dishes.
"Here's a reward for you." Liu Hao smiled and waved his hand. The waiter's eyes lit up when he heard this. The remaining money was enough for his salary for a year. "Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir!" The waiter thanked him repeatedly and left.
The waiter served Liu Hao a bottle of white wine and a bottle of red wine. Red wine was very popular in the Tang Dynasty at that time.
The winemaking technique was brought over from the Western Regions. After the attempts of winemakers from the Tang Dynasty, they combined the winemaking technology of the Tang Dynasty to create a unique wine.
It is rumored that Li Er was very fond of drinking wine made from mare's milk grapes. This wine had a mellow taste and a rosy color, and was very popular among the people of the Tang Dynasty.
Liu Hao poured a glass of wine with great interest. The wine was rosy and translucent, and the rich fruity aroma instantly spread.
He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then drank it all in one gulp: "Mm, not bad, fragrant, sweet, and with a strong grape flavor."
"The alcohol content is low too. This is an ancient version of a cocktail, more suitable for women."
Liu Hao smiled slightly and poured another glass. Wines these days are all brewed by hand-squeezing, without any high-tech or hard work, thus preserving the original flavor of the grapes to a great extent.
The natural and pure taste is unforgettable.
"We can take some away and let Chi'er and the others have a taste." After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.
At this time, a young man who looked like a scholar stood up. He seemed to have drunk a lot. His face was flushed and he said passionately: "Now that the Zhenguan era is prosperous, we should be grateful to Your Majesty!"
"Cheers to Your Majesty!" He said, picking up the wine glass on the table.
After hearing this, most people stood up, raised their glasses and said with rosy faces, "Cheers to Your Majesty!"
Not to mention, Li Er is a pretty good person and has quite a few followers.
Liu Hao also tasted some Tang Dynasty delicacies, including the Hubing, which was golden in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with some marinated mutton inside, which had a unique flavor.
Biluo, which also has many varieties and various fillings, is a kind of snack. (Tang Gui has appeared.)
The mutton was roasted until it was sizzling and the surface was golden and crispy, but it was only sprinkled with a little spice and salt, so the taste was just average. After all, cumin seemed to have been introduced around the middle of the Tang Dynasty.
After three rounds of drinks, Liu Hao walked out of the restaurant contentedly.
At this time, it was less than a quarter of an hour before curfew, and the vendors on the street began to skillfully organize their goods and prepare to close their stalls.
There were fewer and fewer people on the streets, all rushing back home before curfew.
Liu Hao smiled slightly, looked at the street which was gradually becoming quiet, and then disappeared on the spot.
Two foreign merchants who had just come out of the restaurant reeked of alcohol. One of them happened to see Liu Hao suddenly disappear and sobered up instantly.
"Did you see anything just now?" He quickly patted his companion beside him.
The drunk companion waved his hands and said, "What are you looking at? Is there a pretty young lady?"
"No, you didn't see a figure? It disappeared in a flash?" The man looked around in horror, looking a little scared.
After hearing this, his companion drunkenly looked up at him, raised his eyebrows, and asked teasingly: "Was it a whoosh? Or a swish?"
That person: “…Is there a difference?”
On the other side, Liu Hao flashed and appeared above the Daming Palace like a ghost.
This is Li Er’s palace. The Daming Palace is magnificent and majestic, demonstrating the majesty and dignity of the royal family. It covers a large area, which is several times larger than the Forbidden City.
Li Er had a rare moment of leisure today, so after dinner he went straight to the bedroom of Concubine Yang, the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui. After all, Empress Changsun had already passed away by then.
"Your Majesty, you are here?" Concubine Yang smiled when she saw Li Shimin enter her bedroom.
Li Er saw the still charming Concubine Yang, walked up to her, gently held her hand, and smiled: "My beloved concubine, you have been waiting for a long time."
Then...
Just as Li Er was sweating profusely, he heard a teasing voice in his ear: "Oh, Emperor Taizong is so busy? He really has a lot of things to do every day."
After hearing this, Li Er's face changed and he shuddered all over. After a few seconds, he angrily asked, "Who is it?"
