Chapter 121:First Arrival in the Capital (Part 2)

Looking at the magnificent capital city in front of Lu Wei's unconsciousness flew farther away, thinking of many things that were closely related to this Beijing city.

This is an ancient city with a thousand-year history and a thousand-year accumulation, and it is an important city in the north since ancient times.Zhuo County, Yanjing, Nanjing, all, most... and today's Beijing, every name represents a long history, countless popular characters here, and here and destroyed, but Beijing is still silent on this northern plain.

When Daming Taizu founded the country and settled in Nanjing, the city seemed to have gradually been given up in the central position of the world, and only a hard backer to protect the Central Plains.But I did not expect that decades later, another storm surge, sealed here Yan Wang Zhu Di suddenly played the name of the sky, and finally swallowed the whole country with a corner, becoming the new owner of Daming.

Then it was the relocation of the capital, which brought Beijing back to its original lofty position, became the center of the world, and became the final destination of the coming of all nations.

For Zhu Yi's initiative in this certain capital, Lu Yi is very disapproving.In fact, in his view, for the Central Plains Dynasty, especially for the northern border, the Central Plains Dynasty who was always worried about the invasion of the grassland tribes, Beijing was too unsafe and unwise.

Although there are still several strong city leaders in the north of the road as a barrier, but it is not convenient, once the grassland tribe breaks through the gate in front, the vast and flat North China Plain can let the enemy into the long drive, not even a little bit of obstruction.Often once the enemy breaks through the border town of Datong, or opens the mountain customs, Beijing will be completely exposed to the enemy's quick machete.

In the history of Daming, he has suffered from the danger of coming to the city several times, and this is the root cause.Even a few hundred years later, when the ruling Central Plains was a grassland tribe, when the port of Tianjin was easily broken by foreign enemies, Beijing was still exposed to the enemy's powerful offensive, with little defense.

And all this is because Zhu Lei moved the capital to Beijing for his own sake because of his own preferences.When the big Ming is strong, Beijing as a capital city naturally has a hundred profits, but once the strength and weakness are easy to attack and protect, everything will be completely changed.

The Ming Dynasty was called the most tough dynasty of the Chinese nation, it did not count the courtiers, not tribute, discord, it was the son of heaven to guard the country, the king died.But in fact, the latter two points are very debatable strategy, people say that the son of Qianjin can not sit in the hall, the temple of heaven actually to keep in this most dangerous place, it is very unwise.

If Da Ming did not set the capital city in such a dangerous four-war land, perhaps its history, its national hue will be very different, far from Hantang may not be just a slogan, but the real history of real existence.

Unfortunately, all this has not been changed, and Beijing has been determined to be the center of the world for a hundred years.

With a sigh, Lu Wei finally shook the reins, and the horse went toward the tall and thick city gate to meet his unknown fate.

There are nine gates in Beijing, and it is said that Yao Guangxiao, the black-clad prime minister of Yongle Emperor, was built with the image of six arms, which led to these nine gates.Today, they come from the west, and they enter the west straight gate in the northwest.

At this time, Beijing City is naturally far from being compared with the world's leading metropolis, but its scale is the first in this era.Millions of people live in this ancient city, in addition to the Forbidden City in the middle, it is also divided into two cities inside and outside.The inner city is the residential area of the dignitaries, and ordinary people, as well as merchants who come from far away, can only find a place to live in the outer city.

In addition, Beijing City has always had the structure of rich and western, southern poor and northern acid, over time, under the inertia of clustering people together, the east and west sides are more and more prosperous, while the north and the south are more poor living.Of course, this is only a comparison with each other to come to the conclusion that, as the world's capital, Beijing's house prices are now not as exaggerated as the future generations, but it is far more than any city in the world.

After entering the city, what Lu Wei saw was a bustling scene, countless horses and livestock were surging forward and left on the spacious streets, and from time to time, a team of troops holding a spear and walking high, which belonged to the guarding team of the five city soldiers and horse.

As the capital city at the foot of the son of heaven, the public security work in Beijing City is naturally extremely heavy, and let alone major cases such as street fighting and killing, is an ordinary thief, and a bad thing may cause great chaos.Therefore, the court specially set up a five-city soldier and horse gate in addition to the Shutianfu Shumen and Wanping and Wanping and Daxing counties, which were specially used to maintain law and order and investigate and investigate private, and its function was generally equivalent to the combination of the local police station and the urban management department of the future.

Unlike an institution in the future that is called the strongest in the world, only 3,000 can flatten the universe, but now the five-city soldiers and horse are extremely bitter existence.Their official positions are low, their power is not large, and they are in a city where Beijing is such a high-ranking official, and there are many powerful people like dogs in the city, and they can hardly control anything.The only thing that can be done is to try to maintain order, and at the same time carry a few large black pots on your back.

However, because of the existence of a special thorny occupation of the history of the city, they had to patrol the spirit all day, which can be described as the double pressure of the flesh-body spirit.

Lu Wei, who knew the duties of this hustle and busted, did not think that he would have any contact with them, but glanced at it and went on, intending to find a post or inn nearby to stay.

Because the Qin Gong father-in-law did not give out the specific plan, he did not know how long he would stay in this Beijing city, and this accommodation problem became the most troublesome problem.With the density of Beijing officials entering and leaving, it is obviously unrealistic for a small county like himself to want to get a place to live in the official museum, so it seems that it is still necessary to find some large inns to settle down, and even find a dental line to rent a courtyard first.

Just as he was playing this abacus, a group of patrol soldiers passing by them suddenly stopped, and then a military attaché came up and down, looked up and down after a few eyes, and asked him a question that surprised him: "You are from Datong?"

The other side is also too god, actually said their own history, which makes Lu Wei as one of the sting.Many soldiers and pawns subconsciously put their hands on the weapon, for fear that these guys will suddenly be unfavorable to themselves.

But Lu Yi still nodded: "It is true that the officer is fighting from Datong Guangling, I don't know what the general's instructions are."He deliberately identified his own official status, for fear of cheating on the other side.

Don't want to listen to each other, but busy with a hand salute: "It is indeed Lu County to make face-to-face, small disrespect."The little ones of the soldiers and the horse of the West Side are ordered here today to wait for the orders of the Lu County, and to guide you to the abode that was prepared for you.”

“Oh?”Lu Wei stood still again, even if he understood it, obviously it should be Wang Zhen, or the arrangement made by his men.They may do this in order to win themselves as a sign of grace, or to hold themselves in their hands, or both.However, no matter what kind of purpose, Lu Wei could not refuse this arrangement of the other party anyway.

"Then General Lau has led the way."Lu Yi also arched his hand, indicating the other head to lead the road.

So, the Lu Wei line who entered Beijing was accompanied by a team of soldiers and horses to go to the front, and the surface looked really strange, as if they were escorted by these people.

On the way, turning into a rather deserted remote alley, when they came to the fifth house, the people finally stopped.

This is a three-way, occupied not a small single courtyard, the left and right neighbors also have a good distance from here, it seems quiet and not noticed.

Shortly after the military attaché knocked on the door, several lean men opened the door.Looking at the situation, a few people brought a smile, and they made a courtesy to Lu Wei: "Lu County makes you come, we have been waiting here for a long time."

He also returned a salute, and then asked about their identity.A few people only said that they were the next person and steward here, and they served him during this time.In this regard, Lu Wei is naturally aware that they are only afraid that Wang Zhen and others have arranged to monitor their own men.

Now it seems that the other person is very good to themselves.From the beginning of entering the Beijing land, there are people who are constantly in contact with themselves, not only to test their own minds, but also to master their own affairs so clearly, and finally to arrange such a residence to control, it seems that this matter they are determined to become.

Thinking about this, Lu Wei, who entered the hospital, felt a heavy weight in his heart.Now his situation has become more and more unfavorable, if it is a good thing that really hurts Wang Zhen, I am afraid that with this stingy character, myself, and the fate of the second daughter of Chu Yunrong will not be too good.

But even so, his mind has not changed!

Since the other party arranged so well, they are good to live here to enjoy, anyway, they can't come up with any idea now, just wait for someone to contact themselves and talk to yourself about specific strategies.

In this way, just after entering Beijing, Lu Wei lived a lot of life that neither now nor many northern drifters in the future have dreamed of but cannot, not only have a big house to live in, but also do not have to run for their own livelihood every day, and the ease is a day.

As for the soldiers who escorted him to Beijing all the way, they stayed here for only two days and went back.After all, they belong to the Datong garrison, and naturally they cannot stay in Beijing for too long.Although Lu Wei wanted to keep Li now, in the end, he could only let him leave, hoping that the two of them could still have some encounter and cooperation.
