The carriage arrived at the gate of the North Palace. After Liu Zhangping stepped back, he personally carried Zhen Mi into the North Palace.
Although the Chang'an Imperial Palace has not been repaired, basic cleaning has been completed long ago.
Now all the palaces are very tidy, and many rooms in the North Palace are decorated as well as Changle Palace.
Zhen Mi was hugged horizontally, her whole body hanging on Liu Zhang's body.
After the conversation between Liu Zhang and his three wives, Zhen Mi became even more elusive about the powerful man in front of her.
A king who was so decisive in killing was actually so kind to his wife.
In front of outsiders, Liu Zhang's image is majestic and domineering, and no one can touch his beard.
But in front of his wives, Liu Zhang was like a gentle and attentive husband, carefully protecting them.
Zhen Mi felt very clearly the helplessness and sadness in Liu Zhang's heart just now.
But back then in the General's Mansion, Yuan Shao treated his wives with beatings and scoldings, which meant that his wife, Liu, was treated better.
From this point of view, Liu Zhang is really completely different from other princes.
"Mi'er, what are you thinking about?"
Zhen Mi's face turned red and she buried her face in Liu Zhang's arms with some embarrassment.
"Haha, are you still shy?"
Maybe Zhen Mi didn't know when she would dare to act so boldly.
Soon they arrived at Beigong's room, and Zhen Mi looked around curiously.
After all, to ordinary people, the palace is mysterious and curious.
But what she saw in front of her was completely beyond Zhen Mi's expectations.
The room was big and tidy, but nothing else could be said about it. . .
Apart from being big, this room is nothing like the imperial palace. It is not even as luxurious as the Zhen family's carriage!
"Mr. Qin...do you live in a palace like this?"
Zhen Mi couldn't help but question. This was not even as good as Yuan Shao's former general's palace.
Liu Zhang had nothing to say about this and nodded generously.
"Yes, Guanzhong is exhausted, the people are destitute, and the economy and production have completely collapsed."
"First it was cholera caused by Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, Guo Si and others, and then it was attacked by more than 100,000 Xianbei people."
"Today's Guanzhong is no longer the land of abundance in the past, and Chang'an is no longer the Chang'an it was when Emperor Gaozu ascended the throne..."
Zhen Mi is well-read and naturally knows that Chang'an declined after Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty.
But she never thought it would be so dilapidated.
"Didn't Duke Qin think of repairing it? After all, it represents Duke Qin's majesty..."
Liu Zhang shook his head. Perhaps it was because he was a time traveler that he did not pursue the palace too much.
"It's easy to repair, just say a word. But it makes the people suffer!"
"Mi'er, do you know how many people there were in Guanzhong when Gu just captured Chang'an?"
Zhen Mi shook her head slightly. She only knew that Guanzhong had been destroyed one after another, and she didn't know the specific situation at all.
"Haha, you may not believe it, there are less than 10,000 people in Guanzhong!"
"ah...!"
Zhen Mi covered her mouth with her hands and couldn't help but exclaimed.
Ten thousand people?
There are not as many people as Wuji County!
Zhen Mi is well-read and understands the situation in Guanzhong.
At its peak, the population of Jingzhao Yin County alone exceeded one million!
Despite all the hardships, wars and the relocation of the capital, Guanzhong began to decline.
However, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the three counties of Jing Zhaoyin, Zuo Fengyi, and You Fufeng still maintained a combined population of more than 500,000.
After Dong Zhuo moved the capital, millions of people from Henan Province nourished Guanzhong, which will surely revive the land of Guanzhong.
Unexpectedly, in just ten years, the population was reduced to one hundred!
"Mr. Qin, then...why did we see prosperity after we entered Chang'an City?"
Since Zhen Mi and his party passed the Weihan Ancient Road, they have also passed through many cities in Jingzhaoyin.
Although these places are not so prosperous, they are not as dilapidated as Liu Zhang said.
Especially after entering Chang'an City, you can hear an endless stream of people.
Liu Zhang smiled and couldn't help but reach out and pinch Zhen Mi's fragile little face.
"In order to not be restrained by Gu in the battle with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao specially ceded the two counties of Hedong and Hongnong."
"The population of more than 500,000 people in these two counties has now been relocated to Guanzhong."
"There are also aboriginal people who fled from Guanzhong to Nanyang County and Hanzhong County, and now they have all moved back."
"What you see in Guanzhong already has more than a million people!"
Zhen Mi's face instantly turned red. She didn't expect that not long after Liu Zhang got serious, he started bullying her again.
"Hey..."
Seeing Zhen Mi's shy look, Liu Zhang chuckled in his heart.
At this time, women have hardly enjoyed the taste of love. It is entirely the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker.
Some of them got married without even meeting each other.
For a girl of Zhen Mi's age, it's natural for her to be in love!
This sense of youthfulness is also what Liu Zhang likes the most.
I had experienced this from Cai Yan, Liu Yun, and Wu Ran before, but as time passed as a couple, this feeling completely disappeared.
Now Zhen Mi's arrival has once again aroused Liu Zhang's thoughts.
Liu Zhang's big hands only stopped at Zhen Mi's face and did not continue to tease her too much.
Then he helped Zhen Mi tidy up her hair, and after covering her with the quilt, Liu Zhang was ready to leave.
The journey from Hebei to Guanzhong was extremely arduous due to the fatigue of traveling and traveling. We had just been tormented by Liu Zhang for a long time, and we were even more exhausted.
"Mi'er, take a good rest for now. I'll come back to see you later."
As soon as Liu Zhang stood up, he felt a pair of young hands grabbing him.
"Mr. Qin...I'm...scared..."
Just now in the carriage, Zhen Mi heard Liu Zhang's wife's misunderstanding about her.
The other party must hate her deeply now. If Liu Zhang leaves, nothing will happen.
Zhen Mi stood up and grabbed Liu Zhang's hand, completely forgetting that she was not wearing any clothes at all!
Gulu. . .
Liu Zhang's breathing became rapid in an instant, and the jade body in front of him made his blood surge.
Zhen Mi followed Liu Zhang's direct gaze and realized her gaffe.
I wanted to quickly retreat into the quilt, but I was afraid that Liu Zhang would leave.
Zhen Mi was in a dilemma. She could neither move nor move.
However, after much deliberation, Zhen Mi decided to leave Liu Zhang alone.
Maybe it was because he had a substantial relationship with Liu Zhang, or maybe Liu Zhang gained Zhen Mi's favor after a brief contact.
Now Zhen Mi not only does not reject Liu Zhang, but also does not want Liu Zhang to leave.
Hey, he is his person anyway, let him alone. . .
Thinking of the Zhen family and her sister, Zhen Mi immediately made up her mind and gently took Liu Zhang's big hand and put it into her arms.
Feeling the softness from his fingertips, Liu Zhang seemed to have his bestiality aroused and pushed Zhen Mi onto the bed.
. . .
