I knew Suzaku Street was special, but seeing it with my own eyes was still a very shocking feeling.
The central street of Chang'an City is also the glory of this magnificent capital.
It connects the palace city, the imperial city and the outer city from north to south. Its actual width is about 127 meters, equivalent to 36 lanes in both directions in modern times. It is extremely wide and spectacular.
This width design was made for the emperor's travel safety and also demonstrated the strong national strength of the Tang Dynasty.
Seeing Zhuque Street, Xiao Ran seemed to see the image of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.
Zhuque Street is of vital importance. It faces the gate of the imperial palace and is one of the most important roads in the entire Chang'an.
Envoys and merchants from various countries entered the inner city of Chang'an along this avenue, leaving countless footprints here and witnessing the magnificent scene of all nations coming to pay tribute during the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
There are numerous neighborhoods on both sides of the street.
These neighborhoods are neatly arranged like small communities, each with different functions.
Some neighborhoods are inhabited by dignitaries and nobles, who live in luxurious mansions; some neighborhoods have shops to meet the daily needs of residents.
Whenever the emperor ascended the throne, or at the winter solstice, the first day of the first lunar month, and the first month of summer, the emperor would personally lead all officials from the palace in the north of the city, pass through Zhuque Street, and go to the Yuanqiu Altar outside Mingde Gate to offer sacrifices to heaven.
There were many people on Zhuque Street, including ordinary people walking and officials and noble families riding in carriages.
Although it is winter, there are still quite a few people.
The Big G is so special that it attracts many people to watch it.
I am curious about this huge creature's strange appearance and its ability to move on its own.
The people of the Tang Dynasty couldn't understand why they could move without horses.
"This is too spacious!" Xiao Ran was shocked.
Li Shimin saw all of this and felt quite proud.
This is much wider than the streets of the city that never sleeps more than a thousand years later.
This was more than a thousand years ago...it's terrifying when you think about it.
Although time has passed and the Suzaku Street of the Tang Dynasty has disappeared in the dust of history, the glorious years it represents will remain forever in people's memory and imagination.
Now Xiao Ran didn't expect that he could see Suzaku Street with his own eyes and feel its majestic style and prosperous scene.
A sense of pride arises in my heart.
"How do you feel?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.
"It's really spacious. Uncle, you should go and take a look at that place when you have a chance."
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Of course I will go. Forget about it now, maybe later!"
"It's winter now, so there are fewer people. If it were spring, summer, or autumn, there would be more people..."
Li Shimin introduced Zhuque Street to Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran also saw that many families were decorating with lights and preparing to welcome the new year.
Xiao Ran was not driving fast. When he reached the other side of Suzaku Street, he stopped the car and said, "We have to go back. If Mingda wakes up and doesn't see me, he might make a scene."
Xiao Ran also realized this.
"Okay!" Li Shimin felt a little unhappy, but he had to admit that Xiao Ran doted on the little princess.
The little princess became more and more dependent on Xiao Ran.
Li Shimin liked the car Xiao Ran gave him very much. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, Li Shimin pointed and said, "Your house is in Xingdaofang, next to the palace. Do you want to go and have a look?"
"Uncle, let's talk about it later. I have to go back today and wait for Mingda to wake up." Xiao Ran looked at the time. The little princess had a very regular schedule.
The house was deserted and seemed to be of little interest.
The house is definitely not as good as Li Shimin’s palace. Several princesses don’t even want to live in the palace, and Xiao Ran doesn’t want to go into the house either.
"Alright!"
This time, seeing the black G-Class, the soldiers at the city gate did not dare to stop it and quickly made way.
The soldiers looked respectful and showed admiration for Emperor Li Shimin.
Charge into battle and kill the enemy.
Li Shimin had extremely high prestige and strong personal charm.
Li Shimin's influence was unique in the Tang Dynasty.
Not only in the early days of the founding of the country, but even in the late Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin's influence remained.
The fact that a song of Qin Wang breaking through the enemy's formation could prolong the Tang Dynasty's reign is enough to prove Li Shimin's influence.
He single-handedly protected the Tang Dynasty for three hundred years.
There has never been such a person before, and it will be difficult to find such a person in the future.
Parking the car in front of the Taiji Hall, "Uncle, please be careful when you drive by yourself."
"Okay, okay, I got it!"
"Instant noodles don't have much nutrition. Eat them occasionally. Don't eat them all the time!" Xiao Ran couldn't help but say.
"Isn't it delicious? It's full of flavor, how can it not be nutritious? Besides, didn't I add sausage and braised eggs?" Li Shimin still liked to eat it.
"Okay, okay, as long as you like it, uncle."
Several people got out of the car, and Xiao Ran even helped Li Lizhi.
Li Lizhi walked to the other side to support Princess Gaoyang.
"How are you three going to get back?"
"I'll arrange the carriage!"
"No need, we can just walk over there. I also want to take a look inside the palace." Xiao Ran said.
"That's fine! I'm going to make a phone call in the evening." Li Shimin explained in advance.
"Okay, I'll pick you up in the evening." Xiao Ran also agreed.
After saying that, Xiao Ran and the other two left.
Xiao Ran looked at Li Lizhi, "Wu Niang, put on your hat."
"Okay!" Li Lizhi put on the hood of her down jacket.
"Seventeen, you too."
"Brother, I'm not cold." After saying that she was not cold, Princess Gaoyang obediently put on her hat.
The few of them returned to Fengyang Pavilion chatting and laughing, and many palace maids and princesses saw Xiao Ran.
It was abnormal for a man to appear here, but since Li Lizhi and Princess Gaoyang were there, no one cared about it.
"The palace is so big!" Xiao Ran couldn't help but sigh after returning to the little princess's inner palace.
It is much larger than several parks in the ancient city.
"Actually, it's not that bad. What the young master has left is only a small first part!"
Li Lizhi smiled.
"When the weather gets better, I'll go out and explore other places."
"Okay!" Xiao Ran's identity was definitely not suitable, but since Li Lizhi was accompanying him and Empress Changsun and Li Shimin had no objection, then there would be no problem.
Li Lizhi pulled Xiao Ran's arm. Princess Gaoyang also knew what to do, so she pulled Xiao Ran's arm without Xiao Ran telling her.
The three of them returned to the villa.
"Yushu, is Mingda awake?" Xiao Ran asked hurriedly.
"Young Master, no! Qingping is watching from above."
"That's good!" Xiao Ran walked towards the second floor and saw Qingping coming out holding the sleepy little princess.
The little princess was confused and said, "Little sac-kun~ Hug me~"
"Okay!" Xiao Ran hurried over and took the little princess.
The timing is just right.
Cuiwei also came out holding Princess Chengyang.
Both little princesses are very punctual.
