Is this the legendary Chang'an of the prosperous Tang Dynasty?
Indeed, it is very lively here, with people coming and going, and all kinds of hawking and shouting are intertwined, forming a lively picture of the market.
However, the ground was a bumpy loess road, and every time a carriage or pedestrian passed by, it would raise a cloud of dust.
Moreover, there is often a faint stench on this road, which is a mixture of livestock manure and sewage.
The streets were filled with all kinds of donkeys and horses, walking around without restraint, sometimes even defecating in the middle of the street.
The most outrageous thing is that many people would happily pick up the feces from the ground while it was still warm, run home as if they had found a treasure, and use it to fertilize their crops.
Don’t be disgusted by it, it’s not easy to pick up! It’s not uncommon to see Chang’an residents fighting over a little shit, and the scene is truly horrific.
Compared with now, there is a world of difference. Today's Chang'an finally has the charm and atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Mr. Qi was like an experienced tour guide, enthusiastically telling Li Chengqian about the various existing plans of the Tang Dynasty.
His eyes sparkled with pride. As he walked, he pointed at the surroundings and said, "Your Majesty, look! This cement road has now been paved from near the Imperial Palace all the way to the South City. This has greatly facilitated the people's travel."
"Also, we plan to build the school in East City. The environment there is quiet and suitable for children to study."
"Look at this street again. We've already built several public toilets. This sanitation issue cannot be ignored."
"By the way, the houses in this block are too old. We are planning to demolish them and then redevelop the area to make it look brand new."
Li Chengqian listened with great interest, nodded from time to time, his eyes full of anticipation for the future of Chang'an.
The three of them walked and talked like this. Li Chengqian saw that Chang'an was getting better and better, and the sadness that had accumulated in his heart because of Lu Jingsuo's incident was like a dark cloud dispelled by the sun, and it was reduced a lot.
He secretly vowed that as long as he was alive, he would change the Tang Dynasty bit by bit, making it like Xianyang, full of vitality and hope, so that the people could live and work in peace and contentment.
Chang'an is the next Xianyang. He wants to make this city a shining pearl of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
As he walked, Li Chengqian saw that people on the street were enthusiastically learning to read and write. The lively scene made him talk more involuntarily.
I saw a few people not far away competing on the roadside to see who knew the most words. Their faces were all red and they were arguing fiercely. Their serious expressions were very interesting.
Li Chengqian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and then walked forward with a sly look.
He first circled around the people, his eyes full of disdain, and then shouted, "With your level, you're still competing? The few words you know are nothing!"
Several people were stunned by his sudden ridicule and turned to look at him, their eyes full of dissatisfaction and confusion.
Li Chengqian didn't care at all and continued, "I'm telling you, I know every word. So don't embarrass yourself here."
When the people heard this, they looked at him seriously and with disbelief, as if they were looking at a madman who was talking big.
Upon seeing this, Li Chengqian snatched the newspaper from their hands without saying a word, and then read out a long paragraph at a very fluent speed, as if he was showing off his treasure.
Several people suddenly widened their eyes and looked at him in shock, as if they had seen something incredible.
