The "big man" carriage took a full half a moment to pass through the cross bridge, and the officials guarding the bridge then let the pass open.

Wu Lun looked back at the long convoy, and felt that the flag covered with dragons was a little dazzling. He asked Jing Dan: "Brother Sun Qing, can you tell who was the one who passed by just now?"

The New Dynasty has a comprehensive retro look in the chariot clothing. People of different identities have different levels of car driving and the number of entourage guards. The fifth reunion doesn’t know much about this. In addition, the recent trend of simplicity in the court has made some iconic ceremonial wars deliberately removed, making it even more difficult to identify.

"The car is a red liner, the beast is a lush deer, and the flag is a dragon-subduing text on the Jiujiu (yóu) flag."

Jing Dan guessed: "According to the ritual system, it should be the carriage of the crown prince and the princes."

Wang Long, who was standing beside him, responded: "In addition, there is a car that is dyed green on the left and right as the deputy, and the person in the car should be the emperor's grandson."

When Wu Lun crossed the bridge, he took a piece of goods and asked the officials guarding the bridge, and he got the answer: "It is the emperor's grandson, Gong Chonggong."

The Han Dynasty inherited the twenty-level titles of Qin during the Qin Dynasty. After Wang Mang replaced the Han Dynasty, he believed that this was a system of tyrannical Qin, so he abolished them all and restored the five-level titles of Zhou Dynasty. Under the emperor, there were Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi, and Nan, plus the Lifucheng equivalent to Guanneihou.

In addition to several founding fathers, such as the national teacher "Liu Xiu" who was named the Supreme Duke, Wang Mang also gave the son and grandsons the title of Duke. After this Zen era, the family still belonged to the world.

The just-passed Gong Chonggong Wangzong, although he was only Wang Mang's fourth grandson, was the most popular.

Jing Dan knew this court gossip and said, "I heard that the original title of the former Han Dynasty was 'Xindu Hou'. Later, he became Anhan Duke. The position of Xindu Hou was inherited by Wang Zong."

"In the ninth year of Jushe (8 years), the mother of the emperor, Gongxian, died. The ministers knelt down and begged the emperor not to abandon the world. So Wang Zong mourned on behalf of him and lived next to the tomb for three years."

What is this? This is political qualifications! Although Wang Mang made the fourth son Wang Lin the crown prince early, Gong Chonggong Wangzong was still regarded as a strong competitor in the position of crown prince, and he also accepted talented people. Maybe the emperor would change his mind one day and want to pass the throne to this "good saint grandson"!

The fifth relationship is clear, and it seems that there are also factional rifts within the royal family.

Everyone walked southeast after crossing Hengqiao. At this time, the weather was cold and autumn was cold. The trees were rustling by the road, and there were leaves in the lotus pond behind. The giant city in front was majestic. Before they could touch the city wall, the surroundings were already prosperous.

There are many streets along the way, with more than ten lanes in it. Every few neighborhoods, you can encounter a market. Just as the market has just dispersed, merchants lowered their heads and counted the money they had harvested today, and slaves drove the geese and brought their meat back.

This is still just the periphery of the capital. There are twelve city gates in Chang'an. Their entry into the city is the "Chef City Gate" located in the north. Now Wang Mang has been changed to "Jianzi Gate" - even a door can't escape the murderous hand of the maniac.

After the market was dispersed, the taxi and carriages and horses lined up at the door again. Jing Dan reminded the fifth and eighth clerks: "In addition to the talisman, you must also prepare the yellow cloth or goods and hold it in your left hand, so that you can enter the city."

This is not to pay the city entrance fee, but Wang Mang made too many troubles to make money, which made the whole world unhappy with new money. The new office then issued a law: "Officials and the people from one place to another must hold talismans and treasures that match this. Otherwise, the brigade stations are not allowed to stay overnight, and the pass ferry will be detained..."

But the problem is that a thousand-money yellow cloth that can be used as a thousand coins has been abandoned as the product of the last currency reform and will be completely abolished in another year. But if you still need it as a certificate when you enter and exit the city, wouldn’t it be ridiculous?

After finally entering the city, the fifth reunion could finally see the scenery of the capital. In his imagination, Chang'an, as the capital for two hundred years, should be the common people and rich, with women from the capital, and women from different directions, and wandering scholars were intended to be the Duke and Marquis. In short, the people in the capital must have high confidence.

But the scene in front of him disappointed him. The layout was indeed grand and regular, but there was a little less liveliness. Whether it was the street or the inside, there was depression everywhere.

There are indeed many cars and horses on the road, but each one is more than the other, with the highest financial resources in the world. In the past, people from Chang'an, who like to compete for wealth, have recently gone out and competed to ride mares or even ox carts.

All the gorgeous decorations on the car were wiped out, and pedestrians no longer wore luxurious silk, each wearing kudzu, erect and small sleeves for fear of wasting fabrics. Women did not wear gold and silver hairpins, but instead used jingle hairpins on their hair, and deliberately cut a piece of long skirts. The shoes on their feet were no longer inlaid with pearls and jade, which was beautiful because they were worn out.

It's like returning to the natural world and returning to the three ancient dynasties. However, if you look closely, some people's rough clothes reveal gorgeous silk fabrics, which turned out to be just a surface project.

Jing Dan had known Chang'an's recent retro style and whispered: "The emperor thought that the country was weak and the people were poor, and the blame was for being extravagant, so he wanted the people to be unfair, and this was the situation."

At the Changping Pavilion meeting half a month ago, the fifth relationship was a coincidence. When it came to this simple style, Wei Xiang was listed as a typical example and was given to the table.

This wind has spread, and the Six Veterans and counties around the capital have also been promoted. Everyone has heard of it. Before coming, they removed the decoration of the carriage and horses and put on their bodies. The fifth rein looked back and couldn't help but smile: "If you pull up another black coffin, it will turn into a mourning."

When Wang Long arrived here, he said goodbye to them.

"The Qiongcheng Hou Mansion has a house in Qili, and I want to settle there. Brother Sun Qing, Bo Yu, see you tomorrow Lang's office."

After everyone said goodbye to him, Jing Dan couldn't help but say to the fifth reunion: "Chang'an's house has always become more expensive as it goes south."

"Brother Sun Qing is still concerned about the housing prices in Chang'an?" Di Lun was amused: "Where is the most expensive?"

"The most expensive one is of course Shoucheng Room (Weiyang Palace)."

Jing Dan made a joke that was not funny and said, "But that is a priceless place. If you want to talk about a valuable house, it should be the Beique Jiadi located outside the Xuanwu Gate of Shouchengshi, also called Qili. Qili Zuogui Palace and Youbei Palace, most of the people living in Shiqing's outer relatives. There were once Jin, Zhang, Xu, and Shi gathered, and Xiao also had a mansion there."

"The second is Shangguanli, located between Shoucheng Room and Changle Room (Changle Palace), which is adjacent to Jingzhao Yin in the north and has the prime minister in the south. He also lived here during the Wei Dynasty of Emperor Xuan of Han. It is said that there are often miracles. The four assistants, three dukes, four generals, nine ministers and six supervisors, and the brothers of Gong Chong, Wang Lin lived there."

"These two places can be worth a thousand gold."

The fifth reunification only thought that if the first ring is a palace, then the North Palace Jiadi is within the second ring of the capital?

As for Xuanmingli, which they were going to, it was already within the Third Ring Road. But the price of the first district house was as high as 100 gold and would not be sold easily. I don’t know when the Fourth Family got it, because the price was too expensive, no wonder I was willing to lend it to the Fifth Reunion instead of giving it to them.

Because the cost of living in Chang'an was too high, Di Wulun knew that Jing Dan had left the corpus and worked hard on his own and his family was not rich, so he took the initiative to invite him to live with him, which was convenient for each other to take care of each other.

"You are wrong, this is Xuanpingli, not Xuanmingli."

When he stopped and asked, a village head holding a wooden slip pointed the direction for them, and then heard the accent of several people from other places, and then asked, "Are there any female family members in the car?"

The few people shook their heads and soon understood why the village chief asked such a question.

But at the intersection of the streets and alleys, there were often straw mats, and a few people wearing plain white clothes and Confucian crowns were sitting kneeling, with wooden barrels placed beside them. They stared at every passerby, especially men and women walking together.

If a man and a woman get too close, or if a young man who knows Mu Shaoai forgets the ban and goes in and out, the group of men in white look like a hunting dog and get up immediately when they see the prey. They step forward a few steps forward, pull out the cloth banner soaked with red clay mud from the wooden barrel, and hit the "dog man and woman" heavily!

With a burst of exclamation, the couple's clothes were not said to be dirty, but they would be scolded by the confucian scholars.

This scene made the fifth reunion stunned. After asking, I realized that it was not a single dog who was taking revenge on society.

The clan said, "Those men in white are doctoral disciples from the Imperial Academy, but their behavior was followed by Yu Tang Zunxue."

He was one of the nine ministers of Yu and Tang. He took the lead in responding to the emperor's retro and simple policies. He brought up the atmosphere of superficial projects in this city. Emperor Wang Mang also praised him and issued an edict to entrust the ministers and ministers to "think and be at peace" with Comrade Tang Zun.

The superiors like each other will definitely have a greater advantage. Many people will learn from the good and learn from them. Those students who are crazy about ancient books and even took to the streets to strictly implement the Confucian ideal politics of "a different path between men and women".

But nowadays, people are not as rigid as Song Ming, and elopement is not a big deal, but now they can’t even go side by side, which is really an overcorrection.

The village chief was young and hated this trend deeply, and muttered: "It's amazing, why did a fellow man and a woman break the ban? When we were young, we did more than we did on the same journey! If everyone is so reserved and careful, it would be difficult to get married and have children over the age of 30. I want me to say that it would be a forbidden for not getting married and not going home to visit my father if my children don't go home!"

Chang'an should have been like a car and a horse like a dragon. After such a struggle, it became much deserted. No wonder, the city was carrying out a retro movement of Wang Mang and Chun Ru. The pedestrians were in a hurry and dared not stay for a long time, and there was strangeness everywhere.

After looking at it all the way, the Fifth Reunification was simply powerless to complain, and he only said intimately: "I am worthy of being the new dynasty, and I have many 'elegant politics'!"

...

The atmosphere was so subtle that they were not outside for a long time. They followed the direction pointed by the inner long distance and walked eastward along the east-west Xiyin Street. Next to Xuanpingli was the Lifang with the three words "Xuanmingli".

Wu Lun didn't care about the layout of his new home "community", but turned his head to look back at the palace in the south.

The evening is sunny and dusk, like red glows falling in the city. The palace in front of you is not as majestic and grand as other buildings. The raised eaves are a bit delicate. It is independent of the Shoucheng Room and the north of the Changle Room, forming a single unity and appearing a little lonely.

Wu Lun then pointed at it and asked the gate of Xuanmingli's inner prison: "I dare to ask which palace is this?"

The guardians in the capital are different from other places. They have long been used to seeing kings, princes, generals and ministers passing by. The fifth reunion and Jing Dan are nothing.

He lowered his head to check the talismans of several people and said, "In the past, it was called Mingguang Palace, but now it has been changed, it is called Ding'an Pavilion."

The inner prison gate raised his head and had no good expression: "The person living inside is the Lord Huang's family!"

The fifth reunion and Jing Dan suddenly realized that they were talking about Wang Mang's daughter, the empress of Emperor Ping of Han in the previous dynasty.

It is said that she married into the palace at the age of eight and became a widow in the world. At the age of eleven, she became a widow. In a few years, the Han Dynasty was destroyed. So she became the empress dowager of the Han family and was renamed "The Lord of the Yellow Royal Family" by Wang Mang. She became the eldest princess of the Xin Dynasty and lived in Ding'an Hall.

Calculate her age, she is only twenty-one years old.

This identity is really complex and subtle. The fifth reunion looked back and walked into Xuanmingli with Jingdan before the sun set completely.

Compared with the fifth mile in Changling countryside, Xuanmingli is outside the Second Ring Road, but it is worthy of being at the foot of the emperor. It is connected to each other and living in alleys. Not only is the road straight and straight, but it is also very clean and tidy. Water has been sprinkled in front of every household, cleaning the feces left by the livestock and the dead leaves falling from the treetops.

The people in the village also had no contact with each other and were polite to others. When they saw a carriage and horse coming, they just glanced away at random. They would not be like the tribe members of the fifth mile, and would squat on the side of the road and watch for a long time when they came.

Thinking of this, Di Wulun shook his head and said to himself: "I have only been away for a long time, and I am a little homesick."

The ditches on both sides flowed, and there were deep ruts on the bluestone slabs. They drove along it and soon arrived next to a small house. Compared to the pink walls and green tiles of the neighbors, it was a bit dilapidated, and an old elm tree poked its head out of the wall.

According to the address given by the Fourth Xian, this should be the one.

Wu Lun went to the main door and knocked on the door. Wu Fu got out of the car and brought his clothes to carry his bags, but he was tripped by something and fell to the ground with a roar.

When I turned around, I saw someone lying beside the ditch on the exterior wall of the house!

"Die...dead?"

When Wu Lun and Jing Dan heard the news, they looked carefully in the moonlight. They were an old man with all white hair and beards, smelling of wine. Seeing the ups and downs of his stomach and the snoring from time to time, they were obviously drunk, and they were muttering, saying something mysterious and mysterious that no one could understand.

"I have been in charge of all my life, my hands and feet calluses, and my hands and feet are called, and my body is exposed. My friend said that he is so angry that he will go to the palace. How can I be blamed? I will do it for you!"

As he was talking, he started to cry, like a child, his nose, tears stuck to his white beard, looking very pitiful.

At this time, the door opened, and it was indeed the residence of the Fourth Xian family. There was a pair of servants and husbands who were guarding the house here. They had long known that the Wulun would come over and immediately lifted the threshold and let the carriage enter the yard.

Wu Fu broke his chin and continued to work while cursing, but Wu Lun asked them to carry the drunk old man in.

"What should I do if I die inside?" Di Wufu was unhappy and touched his bleeding chin, thinking that he should not meddle in other people's business.

"It's late autumn now, and the weather is cold. If I don't care about him, I'm afraid I can't live tonight after being frozen for a night at such an old age."

The fifth reunion is very good at hypocritical gains reputation, but he still has some kindness in his heart. Jing Dan also believes that this should be done: "Since you can walk around in Xuanmingli, it means that you are a neighbor, or an old father who is drunk and lost, so you can't leave it alone."

The eighth stool and the fifth fox raised their heads and feet, moved the old man into the yard, found a straw mat for him to lean on, covered it with a blanket, and asked someone to cook some hot ginger soup.

The servant in the house lit a torch, took a photo in front of the old man, and said with a smile: "Isn't this the drunk old widow in the book Yang Xiong? Which one of the houses to go to have a drink tonight?"

After hearing this, Jing Dan was stunned: "You said, is this person why the doctor Yang Xiong of the Zhongsan?"

"Yangziyun in Western Shu?"
