Tongyifang East Gulou Street is the most prosperous street in Chang'an except for Zhuque Street.
On both sides of the street, there are warehouses like clouds and restaurants.
Many long-established brands have existed since the middle of the previous dynasty.
It has survived hundreds of years and is famous at home.
Even on an ordinary day, it is crowded with people.
The rich men of the world linger here, the real land of every inch of land.
The red wall of the drum tower in the middle of the street is majestic, the eaves are windy, the scale is grand, and the momentum is magnificent.
Tell the time day and night for the people of the entire Shenjing City.
The second drum closes, and the fifth drum opens, and it is almost a city that never sleeps.
What's even more rare is that the north side of the drum tower is where Guozijian is located.
Even in the downtown area, you can also hear the sound of reading.
For this red dust land, it has added the fragrance of books and ink.
And today's Shangyuan Festival, the Guozi Prison will rest for a day, and all the prisoners will be idle today, and they will go out of prison to spend the Lantern Festival with the people of the city.
The inmates are the main force in guessing the lantern riddles tonight, and of course, they are actually the main force in the lantern riddles What's even more rare is that tonight there will be a lot of lively rich and powerful ladies, women dressed as men to go out for fun.
If you favor whichever one you want, recruiting you as a son-in-law is also a rare story of talented and beautiful women.
With such an introduction, it is becoming more and more lively today.
I can't wait for the night, and the city is full of joy and hustle and bustle.
Jia Cong and Ni Er rode in a carriage and came from Xicheng leisurely.
The carriage is not spacious, not to mention compared with Jia Baoyu's car, even if it is not as good as Jia Huan's car.
With two people, there's not much room left.
But this is also a part of Aunt Ni's heart.
She felt sorry for Ni Er's recovery from serious injuries, and she also felt sorry for Jia Cong's precious status.
Neither of them wanted to disobey the kind old woman It's just that when the carriage reaches the corner of Gulou Street, it can't go in anymore.
Because the streets are full of people, not to mention horse-drawn carriages, it would be nice for pedestrians to have a place to stay.
If it is a carriage of the powerful mansion, perhaps pedestrians will avoid it.
But an ordinary carriage is afraid of being overturned when it enters.
From ancient times to the present, no matter which dynasty or generation, the temperament of the people in the capital is one and the same.
And most of them have complicated relationships behind them, and I don't know which royal mansion and which public mansion will be involved.
For ordinary people who don't have a heel, they don't know what avoidance is.
So when they arrived at the west end of the street, Jia Cong and Ni Er got out of the carriage and followed the crowd inside.
This is the most prosperous place in the city of Shenjing, and there are various warehouses on both sides of the street selling a wide variety of goods.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all available.
Restaurants and teahouses are also overcrowded.
In this era, although there are not many tourists from other provinces, scholars, officials and wealthy people from all over the country still fill up the entire Shenjing City.
After passing several teahouses and taverns in a row, but finding that they were all full, Ni Er patted his head and said with annoyance: "It's all my fault for being a pig brain, I can't even think of booking a place in advance."
Even the son has no place to stay."
Jia Cong didn't care, his bright eyes narrowed slightly, and he carefully looked at the crowd coming and going on the street, he chuckled: "Just look at the street and see what you want to do in the teahouse."
Ni Er still blames himself, but his wife repeatedly told him not to wronged Jia Cong.
Jia Cong glanced at him and said, "Second Brother Ni, I still need to save some money for now."
After Shihantang has made a name for itself, you have big things to do over there, and there will be more silver days.
At this time, we have not yet reached the time to enjoy the blessings. ” Ni Er heard that he had something to do, and felt that Jia Cong was really doing great things, so he was overjoyed, and said in a loud voice: "Okay, I'll listen to my son, I'll listen to my son."
Jia Cong walked dozens of steps along the street with the crowd, and finally at the corner of an intersection, he saw a three-story Zhu Building on the opposite side.
There is a plaque on the main entrance of the Zhu Building, with three gilt characters on it: Shihan Hall Just looking at the mottled patent leather and dim big characters on the door plaque, it can be seen that this Zhu Building has been for a long time.
Compared with the lively scene of the surrounding doors, there are very few tourists in Shihan Hall.
Occasionally, someone "strayed in", and they couldn't stay in it for a cup of tea, so they would come out in a hurry.

The complexion is still not good-looking.
Jia Cong and Ni Er stood across the street, and when they saw this scene, Ni Er said: "This building is the old property of the Lin family, and he has been opening a bookstore here since his ancestor.
However, he has never made any money, and he has been losing money all these years.
There were a lot of family funds in the past, and they could still afford to pay for it.
Now alas If you don't have a son, you won't be able to last long. ” Jia Cong smiled and said, "It's not too late now." ” As he spoke, he looked to the north of the crossroads, and not far from here, a tall archway covered with bright yellow glazed tiles stood tall.
The sun shines brightly, and the brilliance is dazzling.
Even if it is hundreds of steps apart, you can also see the three golden characters on the archway: Guozijian "Second Brother Ni, are they all arranged?"
Jia Cong asked again.
Ni Er hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Childe, then Qiu San has led people to practice many times."
Lin Cheng and I used to laugh at him for tossing around, but now it seems that this kid really has a set" Ni Erhua only looked at the crowd on the street, his heart was pounding, and his palms were sweating.
He is not a person who has no interest in the table, and he used to make a living by putting money in the gambling stall, which is not a small fight.
But how can those compare to today's things?
At that time, he only relied on a few servants, lent money to some gamblers, and made some gray income, but today But it's going to be famous all over the world Just thinking about what is going to happen for a while, and being able to disdain to talk to him in the past, and the person who looks dirty with his eyes, dominates in the palm of his hand, Ni Er can't help but tremble.
"Bell" "Bell" "Bell" At this moment, the melodious drum tower bell rang.
The crowd let out a burst of cheers, and Ni Er was more excited than them, and shouted to Jia Cong in a suppressed voice: "Childe, the country is in prison for the morning class, and the prisoners are going to rest."
Jia Cong's face was still indifferent, he only nodded lightly, and said, "Well, just act according to the plan." ” Guozijian, named after the Taixue from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty thousands of years ago.
Throughout the feudal period, it was the location of the highest official school in all dynasties, and not all scholars were qualified to enter the school.
Even in the middle of the previous dynasty with the lowest threshold, it was necessary to at least raise the identity of the person, and after failing to pass the test, he came to the country to sit in prison, which is the so-called lifting of prison.
In this dynasty, in addition to the eunuchs, although there are also tribute eunuchs and regular eunuchs in name, their essence still falls on the shadow eunuchs after all.
The so-called shadow prison refers to the children of civil officials above the seventh rank, and the children of military attachés and honored relatives of the third rank or above, who can enter the prison to study after passing the examination.
Of course, this kind of assessment is much easier than the real school entrance examination, and it is far less than the township examination, which is still above the entrance examination.
However, after the inmates drop out, the inmates can directly participate in the township examination, or they can directly wait for the award.
Therefore, in the Guozi Prison, the prisoners who were born in prisons mostly looked down on the children of official families who were born in prisons.
And the second-generation children who were born in the shadow prison also look down on the poor children who are from poor backgrounds and will not be able to try, so there are often contradictions.
Of course, that's all for later.
In any case, in the eyes of the world, Guozijian is a first-class, noble, and even sacred holy place for reading.
And the prisoners are also protégés of the Son of Heaven.
In the future, they will all be officials and masters.
Their status in the hearts of ordinary people is extremely high, therefore, when the bell of the drum tower rings, without a cup of tea, from the Guozijian archway out of the crowds, wearing Confucian shirts and green guards, the crowds of people on the street of the drum tower, after a short silence, actually burst into enthusiastic cheers.
After all, in several extremely lively lamp markets such as Gulou Street and Zhuque Street today, the prisoners of Guozijian are the protagonists of guessing lantern riddles.
Just like a star in the future.
And no matter how reserved and arrogant the proud sons of these days are on weekdays, in the face of such a welcome scene at this moment, they all show approachable smiles and respond from afar.
Naturally, there was a burst of even more victorious cheers.
Wherever the prisoners of the country walked, pedestrians avoided them one after another, lest they "suddenly beautie".
However, just when the prisoners, who numbered more than 100 students, walked to the intersection of Gulou Street in an elegant manner, and were about to be diverted to various places in Shenjing, an accident suddenly happened :
