Scholars unparalleled

"Those talented women are not bad either. Each of their poems has a profound artistic conception, and they are quite holy."

Several gifted scholars spoke one by one, and it could be seen that they all yearned for Xing Seoul.

The boatman on the side laughed immediately when he heard this.

"The talented scholars in the city are quite talented. They have done a lot of masterpieces and even the current emperor has praised them."

After saying this, it immediately attracted the attention of a few talented people on the side.

"Your Majesty has already praised you?"

"Will His Majesty pay attention to the poems written by these talented scholars?"

In the minds of the talented scholars in the world, the current Holy Master is the great talent. To be praised by the Holy Master is definitely a kind of affirmation.

In addition, the current status of the Holy Majesty, in the eyes of everyone, even if the poems are in the eyes of the Holy Majesty, it is already a great honor.

Therefore, they were directly concerned about whether the poem could reach the ears of the Holy One.

"If your poems can be written very brilliantly, they will naturally be able to be heard by the heavens. You must know that today's imperial concubine is a talented woman, and she likes poems very much. If your poems are outstanding, it will only reach the ears of the sage. Sooner or later."

The boatman has been here for a long time, so he still knows something.

The talented scholars looked at each other, and they were overjoyed.

If the poems he wrote can catch the eyes of the Holy One, then he will have no regrets in this life!

"Did you just come to this imperial city?"

Funato slowed down the speed of the boat and asked a question.

Then without waiting for their answer, he said, "If you just came here, there are many places you can go to. You can go to the Wangyue Pavilion at night. The Wangyue Pavilion is very high, and you can see the stars and the moon in the night sky." .

That place, if it comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will be the most lively place, and the place where the talented and beautiful people like to go the most.

But when you go, there are more rules, either you have the status and talent and you get the invitation letter, or you need to match some pairs to be able to go.

However, this place has a very high reputation, and the scenery upstairs is excellent. You can see the night view of Star Seoul.

Yes, you must go to the dragon head to have a look. When Xing Seoul City was built, a water dragon was accidentally dug, and the water from the water dragon came out all at once, and it has not stopped until now.

At the beginning, a feng shui master went off in person, and then made a feng shui bureau, and this star Seoul became a place where dragon spirits rose.

From the head of the faucet, the water dragon whizzed out, which was extremely spectacular. Although the water in this city of Seoul was connected to the outside, it was actually a dragon spring.

If passers-by are thirsty, they can fetch water directly from the canal to drink, but basically no one does this, because the water at home is taken from Longquan.

After many talents come to Xinghan City, the first thing to do is to go to the dragon head and drink a sip of Longquan. This Longquan flows through the place of the Holy One, and it is more or less infected with the talent of the Holy One, which can make your talent more profound. . "

Funato chatted on the side, talking about the various benefits of Star Seoul.

The speed of the boat slowed down, mainly to let them see the scenery on both sides.

After listening to Funato's introduction, the gifted scholars quickly took out their pens and wrote down one by one. What the other party said made them yearn for it.

Wangyue Pavilion, think about it, how nice it would be to go in and talk about poetry with other scholars during the Mid-Autumn Festival?

There is also the dragon head. I have long heard that there is such a dragon vein in Xinghan City. As long as the dragon spring does not dry up, the dragon energy will always be there to protect the Xinghan Dynasty. No matter what I think, I want to go and see for myself.

Funato's introduction was extremely careful, even including the peach blossom forest in the city.

"This peach blossom forest is not ordinary, it was planted by the Holy One himself! The peach blossoms are almost in bloom at this time."

"I know this. There was a deceased wife, Jiu Guifei, who loved peach blossoms very much. Later, the Holy Majesty planted a few peach trees every spring, and there was also a peach blossom poem to commemorate Jiu Guifei. Peach trees were planted every year, and they bloomed in Duanchang. hour!"

When the scholar at the side heard this, he quickly responded.

There are not many people in the world who don't know about this matter.

Funato nodded cheerfully, "That peach blossom grove is not forbidden to enter, you can go and see, after all, the Holy One planted it with his own hands, remember not to touch those peach trees when you go, if someone sees it, then But punishable."

As the peach trees planted by Lu Chensheng himself, although there is no restriction on entry, it is the common sense of the people in Xinghan City whether these peach trees can be moved around at will.

Scholars naturally wouldn't do such a thing, so they just nodded their heads when they heard the words, indicating that they understood.

"In short, there are still many interesting places in the city, and there are even more places to eat. Many dishes have been handed down from the palace. Recently, there is an additional dish of roast chicken, which is delicious. In short, I can't say enough. Yes, you will know when you go in."

The boatman spoke a little dry, so he stopped altogether.

Seeing this, the talented scholars quickly expressed their thanks.

Funato also responded cheerfully, "The days are so good now, the Holy Majesty has asked the common people to breed all kinds of chickens and ducks. If it were not so, tens of thousands of chickens would be killed in the city every day, and there would be no place to buy them."

After the grilled chicken came out, it directly became a famous dish in the city, and many people eat it.

The surrounding farms have made a lot of money directly, and they have lost a lot of breeding, otherwise they would not have these chickens for them to eat.

After a while, the boat finally stopped in the city, and everyone got out of the car after paying, feeling the prosperity of this star Seoul.

This place is indeed a bustling place, as soon as we got off the boat, we could hear the cries around us, as well as the crowds coming and going.

At a glance, the street is very clean and tidy, passers-by wear clothes of high-quality fabrics, and from time to time you can see rich people wearing brocade.

There is a saying that an inch of brocade is an inch of gold, who can wear brocade, who is not a rich man?

Originally, they could have expected the prosperity of this place, but after seeing it now, they were still stunned.

The wealth here is really beyond their imagination.

"Let's go, let's find a restaurant to stay and talk."

The scholars planned to come down and walked straight to the front. There were a lot of restaurants on both sides, and after asking, the prices were extremely cheap.

Originally thought, how could consumption be low in such a land?It was only after I came that I realized that the price was actually not that high.

Probably because there are so many restaurants here, the price is much cheaper.

In any case, this made them feel a lot more about this place.

When I first came along the way, the things sold on the road were extremely cheap, such as cheese, which was also extremely common here.

This thing has already appeared in some things now, but in terms of price, because the transportation is far away, the price is quite expensive, not so cheap.

A group of people looked around, and then sighed with emotion.

No wonder some people who came here were reluctant to leave later, the charm here is so attractive.

They can all feel that everything here is so beautiful.

The people here are extremely kind, and when they ask each other something, they always look polite.

It doesn't look like some places, because in the bustling city, some people just look down on them.

Here, they don't feel the Tao at all.

Although the situation has been gradually improving, what is being done here is the best.

"Sure enough, if the road is not lost here, it is really the best."

As a gifted scholar, I naturally like this kind of atmosphere.

in the palace.

Lu Chensheng is planting a peach tree, which he bought back from the palace himself.

In the palace, there was a specially planned area to plant peach trees for Lu Chensheng.

"My husband remembers planting peach trees every year, and wrote so many poems to Jiuniang. It's a pity that I don't have such treatment."

Seeing Lu Chensheng planting peach trees, Linyu pouted slightly, with a bit of jealousy.

At first, when I saw this matter, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, the other party was gone, so I still had some respect in my heart.

But now, it has been several years, and my husband has not forgotten this matter. He still plants the peach tree every year after the beginning of spring, which makes her a little envious.

Bai Yi pursed her lips when she heard the words, "If my sister can't stand it, ask her husband to write a poem for you too."

"Hmph, my sister doesn't have so many poems, doesn't my sister have too?"

Lin Yu said something.

Bai Yi didn't seem to care that much, "It's enough for the concubine to have the lover's sword with her husband."

Couple sword!

Hearing this, Lin Yu's silver teeth bit his lip immediately, how could he forget about it.

Bai Yi's sword was given by Lu Chensheng, and the two of them are lovers' swords, so they are very crooked when you think about it.

So what's between her and her husband?

Lin Yu thought a lot with a sad face, but still felt nothing.

This time, she was in a bad mood.

But it was only for a moment, "No matter what, my sister still has a song called Fengqiuhuang!"

Feng Qiuhuang?

Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that there was indeed such a thing.

The phoenix and the phoenix return to their hometown, traveling all over the world to seek the phoenix, how can I not remember this poem.

Thinking about it this way, Bai Yi was also a little discouraged. Compared with this, the two of them seemed to be in the same boat.

Lu Chensheng had already planted the peach trees at this time, and after walking out of the garden, he looked at the two of them strangely.

"what happened?"

Feeling that there seems to be some gunpowder between the two, Lu Chensheng is a little strange, he hasn't seen the two of them arguing, what happened today?

The two women shook their heads when they heard the words, and they didn't upset Lu Chensheng because of this matter.

I have a little taste in my heart, but that's just a little bit, my husband has been annoying enough these days, there is no need to continue to make my husband so troubled.

Seeing that the two of them seemed to have nothing to do, Lu Chensheng did not continue to ask.

After nodding casually, he walked towards the imperial study room. He has a lot of things to do today, and he took a little time to come here to plant a few peach trees.

Chapter 8: Declare War

Chun Geng was extremely busy. It can be said that the entire Xinghan Dynasty was busy.

And at such times, one after another, new ships begin sea trials.

These ships are all equipped with steam engines, and they start very fast.

On the canal, you can immediately see the roaring ships emitting black smoke, running towards the front at high speed.

Some people have never seen such a ship, and when they see it, they all stand on the bow and watch it curiously.

It wasn't until they arrived in Xing Seoul that they realized that these ships had been equipped with steam engines.

There are not many people in the Xinghan Dynasty who don't know about steam engines.

This thing is too powerful, it can break boulders if it is big, or it can break rice into rice, it is extremely useful!

Up to now, it can still be installed on ships, which is really an eye-opener!

Star Seoul is really full of miraculous objects right now!

The people also like to discuss these new gadgets very much.

These things are also related to their lives.

I heard that when there are more of these ships, some can be invested in merchant ships.

At that time, wherever they want to go, the speed will be much faster.

Also, new crop seeds have been sown in some places, just wait and see, it's time to harvest.

If there is such a large output, there will be no shortage of food in the future.

This is indeed a great joy for the common people.

Right now, during the spring plowing, they are working even harder.

In the palace, Lu Chensheng raised his brows as he looked at the memorial presented.

"The latest batch of guns has already begun to be equipped?"

"Yes, it has been equipped, and the soldiers have begun to try to use it now."

Minister of the Ministry of War Chengxue immediately responded, thinking of the rows and rows of uniform salvos she saw today, her expression fluctuated a little.

After seeing today's test firing, she knew that the battle in the future might have to change.
