Chapter 37

After Li forgot to worry about leaving, he saw that Yang Zuo in the study was half angry, twisted his beard and laughed.

In fact, it was Yang Zuan's idea for Yu Shinan to attend the poetry meeting.

On that day, Yu Shinan jumped angrily and left when Li forgot to worry. When Yang Zuo sent the teacher out, he whispered to him.

"Don't be angry, sir. I have a way to clean up my lazy temper." Yang Zui whispered in Yu Shinan's ear.

"Xu Qing said quickly. What's a good way?"

"Ziyou is really talented. At the age of 16, he can write poems such as Shangyang compilation and Xiake Xing. No one in the students' memory can be as evil as him. It's not difficult for the teacher to want him to become an official."

"Oh? This boy is stubborn and wants to make money. What can you do? Tell me quickly! I can't watch Ziyou go astray."

"Brush fame!" Yang Zui whispered.

As soon as Yu Shinan heard Yang Zuo's words, he immediately understood.

There are many ways for literati in the Tang Dynasty to become officials. They can take the imperial examination, introduce themselves, recommend themselves, grace shade, join the army and become aides. However, it is obvious that Li forgets worry will not accept these methods.

Another way is to brush fame. As long as fame is high enough, even the emperor will take the initiative to recruit into the dynasty as an official.

Yang Zuan doesn't believe it. Can this bastard refuse when Li Er orders to recruit Li forget his worries?

"Xu Qing, you go on. What should I do?"

"Do you remember the poetry meeting to be held in Qujiang pool, Chang'an City in a few days?"

Yu Shinan immediately understood what he meant, twisted his beard and said with a smile, "it's a good idea to continue Qing! But are you sure to let the boy attend the poetry meeting?"

"Hey, sir, don't forget that Ziyou still owes me money from the county government." Yang Zui said with a smile, "why don't you worry that Ziyou won't be in the eyes of the sage when you go back to Chang'an to recite Ziyou's two poems?"

Yu Shinan nodded with satisfaction. Supported by his old servant Yu Da, he boarded the ox cart and returned to Chang'an.

Li Lianyou, who was secretly calculated by Yu Shinan and his disciples, knew nothing about it. He went to the county government stables to borrow horses, led three horses out of the county government, and brightened the eyes of the two brothers of the cattle family.

"Dalang, Erlang, can you ride a horse?"

Li forgot to worry about the question did not get any answer, but saw that Niu Yong and Niu Wu chose a horse respectively, reached out and stroked the horse's neck a few times, and then jumped onto the horse's back.

Even Niu Yong, who had only one arm, had no stagnation. With one arm on the saddle, he sat firmly on the horse's back.

"Xiao Lang, you were still sucking when our brother rode into the battle. Ha ha." Niu Wu said with a careless smile.

Li Qieyou looked at the two brothers' skillful movements and secretly scolded himself for being talkative. These two were originally special soldiers of the king of soldiers. They must be skillful in bowing and riding horses.

But he himself was a small white-collar worker in his previous life and had never ridden a horse at all. However, the original owner of the body can ride a horse, ride a horse, shoot arrows and dance swords, which are all necessary skills for nobles and scholars in this era.

This is why he dared to ask Yang Zuo to borrow a horse.

However, when he really stepped on the stirrup, Li forgot to worry and knew that riding was not as simple as he thought!

According to the method in memory, stand in front of the horse's left shoulder, hold the reins in your left hand, lift your left foot high and pedal the stirrup

But he didn't want the horse to struggle uneasily and almost overturned Li forgetful to the ground, which made him very embarrassed.

The Niu brothers sitting on horseback couldn't help laughing at his appearance. Niu Wu got off his horse and walked to Li forgetful.

"Hold the reins and mane with your left hand, so that you can hold the horse's body and keep it from moving. Jump with your right foot, hold the stirrup with your left leg, and turn on the horse..."

After some guidance from Niu Wu, Li forgot to worry and finally got into the saddle.

"Ha ha, Xiao Lang, you have to practice your horse riding skills more." Niu Yong smiled.

Li forgot to worry about his face and didn't explain. The three rode out of the city slowly and trotted to Chang'an city.

On the way, Niu Wu galloped several times and ran back to Chang'an Avenue in Huxian county. When the horses were sweating, he took back the reins and jogged back.

"Ha ha, have fun! I haven't ridden a horse for many years."

Li Qieyou can see that the Niu brothers are also horse lovers. I think they rarely have the opportunity to gallop like this after they return to the field.

In Dingzhou village, we didn't even see the bad horse pulling the cart. There were only old cattle farming in the village.

The elite like the Niu brothers have no chance to ride a horse for more than ten years. I'm afraid they are really oppressed. It's just as painful as future racing drivers don't have the chance to touch the car steering wheel.

After all, Niu Yong broke his arm, and Niu Wu was one or two years old. He was a lot calm, but he rode the horse slowly and followed Li forgetful.

After a while, Chang'an city was already in sight.

In my memory, the former owner of the body had been to Chang'an, but when Li forgetful saw the dream capital and the most powerful city in the world, the shock still left him speechless for a long time.

The twelve meter high wall can't see the edge at all, just like a barrier that can never be conquered.

Chang'an City, composed of Waiguo City, palace city and Imperial City, covers an area of about 87 square kilometers, roughly half the size of the Third Ring Road in Xi'an.

Waiguo city is about 20 miles wide from east to west, which is equivalent to Li forgetful walking from Dingzhou village to Huxian county. It is about 70 Li long from north to south, which is basically the distance from Huxian county to Chang'an city.

More than one million people live in this magnificent city.

You know, it was in the Tang Dynasty. More than a thousand years ago, there was no more magnificent city in the world than Chang'an. Chang'an is seven times larger than Constantinople in the same period, and even the most famous ancient Roman city is only one fifth its size.

There are 14 East-West streets and 11 north-south streets in Chang'an City, dividing the city into 108 Li Fang of different sizes. The whole Chang'an city is horizontal and vertical, just like the chessboard.

Li forgot to worry for a moment, and a voice echoed in his mind for a long time - dreaming of Chang'an!

I have also traveled to Xi'an in previous lives, but Chang'an at this time is not comparable to Xi'an in future generations.

The outer city wall of Chang'an is divided into four directions: Southeast and northwest. There are three gates in each direction, with a total of 12 gates. They came to Chang'an from Huxian county and walked through Mingde gate in the south of Chang'an city.

Mingde gate is also the gate of Chang'an city. Other gates have three doorways, while Mingde gate has five doorways.

The so-called doorway is the door opening on the wall, which is equipped with heavy city gates. Although Mingde gate has five doorways, only the small doorways on the left and right sides can be used for people.

They set out from Dingzhou village early in the morning and arrived in Chang'an. It was already noon. There were long queues waiting for inspection at the gate of the city.

Li Qieyou looked at the queue curiously, including caravans composed of mules and horses, and even western regions caravans riding camels. Those Hu merchants with white skin, yellow hair and blue eyes, as well as the hot Persian singer, dazzled Li.

After waiting in line for a long time, the city guard checked the public inspection of the three people and finally entered Chang'an city.

"Xiao Lang, where are we going now?" Niu Wu asked. They didn't know what happened when Li forgetful came to Chang'an city.

"Go to chongrenfang and find a place to live first."
