Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce
Chapter 239 Arriving in Luoyang
Luoyang also has the ancestral temple of the Lu family, so it has always been called the capital of Dadang.
Chang'an is 800 miles away from Luoyang. It can be reached in one day if you drive quickly. However, there are many people moving the capital, and it will take three days if you go faster.
However, there are many stops along the way, so it doesn't matter if you walk slowly.
Many officials have already sent people to Luoyang early to clean their mansions.
Although His Majesty has moved the capital to Luoyang, people still need to stay in Chang'an. After all, Chang'an is closer to the barbarian tribes.
King Su and King Rong stayed in Chang'an and temporarily took charge of Chang'an's military power.
Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Chang'an has been the capital for a long time.
The imperial court had long discussed moving the capital to Luoyang, and Mr. Ji was more inclined to locate the capital in Luoyang. He thought it would be fine to let Lu Xi go to Luoyang for half a year.
Qiao Jinniang was riding in a spacious carriage. When she opened the curtain, she saw the mighty and solemn troops on both sides.
After stopping and walking, it took three days to reach Ziwei City in the west of Luoyang City. There is also the East Palace in Ziwei City, and the main hall inside is still extremely luxurious, no different from Chang'an.
Because the palace had already sent people to tidy it up, the scenery was no different from that of Chang'an Palace.
The large army of emperors, empresses and courtiers had not yet arrived at Luoyang.
Qiao Jinniang got some freedom. As soon as she finished reorganizing, she wanted to go to Luoyang City to check out the places and sell the shops for business.
Seeing her anxious look, Lu Chen asked, "You're going out wearing this?"
"It seems inappropriate, but I didn't even bring any men's clothes."
Lu Chen said: "The last time I came here was when I was fifteen, and the clothes you wore at that time should be suitable for you."
Qiao Jinniang said: "Farewell, I will send someone out of the palace to buy a suit. The queen mother has said that the prince's clothes are not just for casual wear. This is a serious crime of treason."
Lu Chen smiled slightly, "How could you not be afraid of treason at all when you beat me? Now it's time to worry about this. It's not like I don't have casual clothes. You can just wear those casual clothes. I'll go to Luoyang City with you to take a look. ."
Qiao Jinniang went to change into men's clothes. Nowadays, it is fashionable for girls to wear men's clothes.
Therefore, Qiao Jinniang did not hide that she was a woman, as long as no one recognized her as the Crown Princess.
The customs and customs of Luoyang are not much different from those of Chang'an, except that Chang'an can see a lot of barbarians from all over the world, and the folk customs are rougher, while Luoyang has more literati and has the heritage of the Central Plains.
After a day of shopping, Qiao Jinniang saw a lot of scenery she had never seen before, and finally decided on a street of shops in Jiuzhou Lane in Luoyang, which is close to Ziwei City and is surrounded by mansions of noble families.
Before Qiao Jinniang opened, there was a Yingbin Building opposite. Isn't this a coincidence?
The man and woman who came out of the Yingbin Building were the shopkeeper and his wife of the Yingbin Building in Chang'an.
Lu Chen said to Qiao Jinniang: "I'm afraid Yingbin Building has the same idea as you. If we want to purchase the shops on this street, I'm afraid it will be expensive and not easy."
The business here is very good, there is no reason to sell the shop.
Qiao Jinniang said: "The terrain here is the best, and there are other places. But in terms of Feng Shui, this is the easiest place to attract wealth. I have a lot of money, so I can just follow their price. If it doesn't work, then find another place." The place."
When Qiao Jinniang went to negotiate, she learned that the entire Jiuzhou Lane's shops belonged to a wealthy businessman. The wealthy businessman was often away from Luoyang, and the shops here were only for rent, not for sale.
Unfortunately, the shops she was interested in were all run by merchants who were doing their own business and would not sell them no matter how much money they paid.
Qiao Jinniang said: "I also sincerely want to do business. The territory here is good. If you only do calligraphy, painting and antique business here, I'm afraid you won't earn much. Ask your boss. Money is easy to negotiate. Just ask. Just give me a price."
"Mr. Sir, madam, please don't embarrass me. My boss collects these treasures. My boss is not short of money. He just likes these antique calligraphy and paintings. I usually use the good ones to keep for myself. No. If you like doing business here, it’s not just for money.”
Lu Chen heard this and said, "Is your boss's surname Lin?"
"Yeah, how did you know?"
Lu Chen said to Qiao Jinniang: "There is no need to buy it. When father comes to Luoyang, just ask him for it."
Qiao Jinniang asked: "Is it possible that this street is all father's property?"
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Yes."
Qiao Jinniang couldn't help but be a little surprised, but it was not surprising to think that His Majesty had some private properties of his own. Although the treasury was still abundant despite the fact that there had been no war for several years, His Majesty claimed to be a wise king and could not abuse the money in the treasury.
Therefore, there is also some private industry.
After all, the East Palace has a lot of private properties. After Qiao Jinniang entered the East Palace, she discovered that Lu Chen owned many houses and shops in Chang'an, and there was no shortage of money.
Not to mention the industries the two of them had in Jiangnan.
By the time His Majesty arrived in Luoyang, it was already five days later. Luoyang was lit up all night and was even more lively than during the holidays.
When His Majesty and the officials arrived during the day, all the people knelt down to greet them.
All the distinguished ministers returned to their homes to tidy up.
Zheng Xiao wanted to take care of her newborn daughter who did not come from Chang'an.
Although the Qiao family has been separated, the Anyuanhou Mansion is still deserted, so the family members of the second master of the Qiao family still live in the Anyuanhou Mansion.
Mrs. Qiao Er helped with the housekeeping.
Mrs. Qiao Er's natal family is in Luoyang. As soon as she arrived in Luoyang, her natal family came to visit.
"younger sister."
"Sister-in-law." Mrs. Qiao Er felt sad when she saw her mother's family.
Mrs. Fu said: "What kind of injustice has my sister suffered? I heard that your sister-in-law has never come to Luoyang. You are the housekeeper of this huge Hou Mansion. What a big deal this is."
Mrs. Qiao couldn't help sighing: "It's not like my two daughters went to the southwest without saying a word. I wrote to them with so many excuses to come back, alas."
Mrs. Fu said: "My sister has just arrived in Luoyang and has a lot of chores. I didn't want to bother her. But your useless niece is also seventeen this year and has not yet been engaged. I heard that the dignitaries from Chang'an are here, and I hope my sister will be here." Would you like to help with the matchmaking to make the marriage happen?"
Mrs. Qiao Er frowned and said, "Is it necessary to be so urgent? These people have to stay in Luoyang for half a year!"
Mrs. Fu said with a shy smile: "I heard that there is a Crown Princess in the Qiao Mansion. Do you think your niece's appearance and bearing can help the Crown Princess when she enters the East Palace?"
Mrs. Qiao Er sneered, "Sister-in-law, I advise you to give up this idea and don't come to Qiao's house to visit relatives.
It's only your first day in Luoyang, and you already want your daughter to enter the palace?
Little did they know that one of the conditions for the Crown Princess to marry into the Eastern Palace was that the Crown Prince would not be allowed to take concubines. "
Mrs. Fu said in shock: "How is this possible? The princess is joking, right? Or does my sister not want your niece to enter the palace and steal the love of the Qiao family's daughter?"
Mrs. Qiao Er despised this sister-in-law extremely, "You go slowly, I won't send you off!"
Mrs. Fu said: "All the daughters in Luoyang want to enter the East Palace. Your niece is not bad in appearance and bearing. If you help her, she will always be of benefit to you in the future!"
Mrs. Qiao Er sighed, "I am stupid for helping your daughter enter the palace."
