It is said that the area of ​​Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty reached 84 square kilometers.

It is said that there were 108 markets in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty.

It is said that the population of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was as high as one million, which was more than that of the eastern capital Luoyang...

However, Yang Shouwen has never seen all this before!

The Suiye City imitates the pattern of Chang'an City. It has a permanent population of about 150,000, with a total of 36 fangs. It is definitely the largest town in the western frontier.

Yang Shouwen and the other two entered the city smoothly and did not suffer any difficulties.

After all, Suoye City is a commercial city, mainly relying on past merchants. Even though a large-scale rebellion had just occurred, it still ensured the normal entry and exit of the city. However, after entering the city, you can clearly feel the depression in the city. There are many pedestrians on the street, but compared with the scene of merchants gathering in the book, it is obviously much deserted. Along the way, Yang Shouwen could even see the remains of the ditches on the side of the road.

"Master, where are we going?"

Feng Changqing also got off the horse and followed Yang Shouwen.

He held Yang Shouwen's sleeve tightly with one hand and looked around nervously.

His little face was a little white, obviously because he just saw a broken arm in the ditch on the side of the road. Yang Shouwen smiled slightly, reached out to rub his head, then held his hand and walked slowly along the street.

"I dare to ask the donor, how to get to the Qing Dynasty in Suiye City?"

Yang Shouwen stopped a Hu man and asked about the path with a smile.

He spoke Turkic words. The Hu man was stunned and then pressed his hand on his chest to return the favor, and then pointed behind him.

"The elder walked along the road, passed three markets and turned left, and the fourth market was the Qing Dynasty."

After saying that, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "The elder is from another place. The Sailye City has been a little turbulent these two days. It is best to find a place to stay before dark and don't come out again at night. Otherwise, you may encounter trouble."

There was a string of Buddhist beads on the hand of this Hu man, who was obviously a Buddhist.

Yang Shouwen hurriedly thanked him and said goodbye to him.

After the turmoil, there will be chaos... Suoye City itself is a place of mixed fish and dragons. Just as a rebellion occurred, it is inevitable that the rats would be rampant. It is easy to say during the day, but if it reaches the night, some changes will easily occur.

Yang Shouwen was mentally prepared for this.

The city of Qing Dynasty is a market in Suiye City. Its nature is similar to the three cities in Luoyang and two cities in Chang'an.

It is named after the Daqing Pond, not far from Suiye City, and is purer and larger than the markets in Luoyang and Chang'an.

There are many shops in the city of Qing Dynasty.

As soon as I entered the market, I saw flags flying.

Different shops and banners have different patterns.

However, this market, which should have been extremely prosperous, is deserted at this moment.

Even on the ground, there were still some blood stains... It was obvious that the rebellion a few days ago also affected this place.

Yang Shouwen walked slowly along the street. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he suddenly stopped.

In front of him was a porcelain workshop with the words Maitreya written on it.

"Wujing, take the Chou slave here to wait for me."

"yes!"

Yang Shiliu said, took the reins from Yang Shouwen, and then took Feng Changqing to find a shaded place next to the store.

It's already May and the weather is very hot.

Seeing that the two of them were sitting down, Yang Shouwen turned around and walked into the porcelain workshop.

"Elder, just say whatever you like, all the porcelains here are shipped from Middle Earth. The quality is excellent."

The guy in the store came up and looked very enthusiastic.

Yang Shouwen smiled and said, "Donor, I came from the East Land. I passed by here and saw the exquisite porcelain here, so I wanted to choose a few. I worship my Buddha, but I wonder if there is any introduction to the donor?"

The guy was stunned and spoke just now, but he heard someone in the room say, "Xiao Liu, go and do your business, I'll come to entertain this elder."

From the room, a man in his thirties walked out of the room, with a handsome appearance.

"Where is the elder coming from Middle Earth?"

"I came from Longmen Mountain and went west to visit Lusana."

When the man heard this, his eyes lit up.

"If you want to worship Lushenna, you still need to receive real gold."

"I have nine pounds, nine taels, nine ounces, nine coins of gold, and can cast a golden body for the Buddha."

"Amitabha!"

The man smiled and said sideways, "The elder said he wanted to buy porcelain to worship the Buddha, please follow me."

As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the inner room, and Yang Shouwen hurriedly followed.

That's right, this porcelain shop is a contact point in Xiaoluantai set up in Suoye City. The previous conversation was also the code word of Xiaoluantai. After Yang Shouwen followed the man into the inner room, the other party invited him to sit down first, and then served iced wine.

"Dare you ask the donor, your surname is Gao?"

"The villain's name is Li Ke, who is from Changlong, Mianzhou.

Twenty years ago, I came to the Western Regions with my father and settled here. I wonder what instructions did the envoy come here?"

Yang Shouwen took a sip of wine and glanced outside the house.

Li Ke said: "Don't worry, although Pang Huanlong is a Turkic species, he has been with my family for three generations and is considered his own person."

"Very good!"

Yang Shouwen then spoke with a smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, let him watch outside, and let him give me some water to my two apprentices."

"Please wait for the messenger."

After Li Ke finished speaking, he hurried out.

After a while, he returned to the house and closed the door.

"I came to Anxi with the order to inquire about Yan Zhi's whereabouts."

"Is the messenger Yan?" Li Ke was stunned and said softly: "I haven't seen him for a long time... The last time I saw him was in August last year. After that, he said he would go to Hulun City to see someone, and there was no news again. I always thought that he had gone back."

Hu Luncheng is the capital of Luona Prefecture (Jiudu Prefecture), which belongs to the jurisdiction of the Gaofu Governor's Palace.

This is an affiliated place, and in terms of geographical terms, it should be considered within the territory of Tochar.

Yang Shouwen frowned and said softly: "What did he do when he went to Lun the city?"

"This, the villain is not clear about it... But before the envoy Yan left, he said to the villain: The great man planned to Tochar, and the ninth surname of Zhaowu seemed to be a little shaken. He went to Huluncheng to find someone, and it is said that there is very important news."

"Do you know who he is looking for?"

He immediately scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "Yan Jun is the head of the Protectorate of the Binchi Province. His spies have always contacted him in a single line. Although the villain is the head of the Thunder Ye City, he must obey his command. If he doesn't say many things, the villain cannot know... By the way, when Yan Jun left, he said that if an accident happened, I would ask me to light three bonfires on the Qianquan Ridge of the Snow Mountain on the 15th of each month..."

"Did you ignite it?"

"If the messenger had not come, the villain would not even know that something had happened to Mr. Yan, so he would not have ignited it."

After hearing this, Yang Shouwen frowned.

Calculate the day, today is the third day of the fifth lunar month, and there are still twelve days left before the fifteenth lunar month.

If he wants to contact Yan Yao’s spies, he has to wait twelve days, but it’s a bit troublesome...

Wait, or not?

Yang Shouwen was a little hesitant.

However, this is not something that needs to be decided immediately, so there is no rush.

When he arrived at Suoye City, he contacted the spies from Xiaoluantai, which was also considered to be in contact with Shendu. Yang Shouwen was not in a hurry, so he pondered for a moment and asked again: "When I entered the city just now, what did the rebellion of the gang people?" (To be continued.)
