Tang Dynasty: Beyond Time and Space, My Best Friend, Princess Jinyang!

"After two expansions in the 17th century, it has reached its current size. The main building of the Potala Palace has 13 floors, is 117 meters high, covers an area of ​​more than 360,000 square meters, and is magnificent."

"The Potala Palace preserves a large number of rich murals, including the story of Emperor Taizong of Tang's five difficulties in marrying the Tibetan envoy Garlu Dongzan, the difficulties and obstacles Princess Wencheng encountered on her way to Tibet, and the warm welcome she received when she arrived in Lhasa."

"These murals are exquisitely composed, the characters are lifelike, and the colors are bright. The Tubo of the Potala Palace Behind the Tibetan ruins, there is a room where Songtsen Gampo practiced self-cultivation and meditation. The walls are decorated with colorful statues of Songtsen Gampo, Princess Wencheng, Lu Dongzan, etc. "

Li Lizhi thought, "Is the Potala Palace far from here? Let's go and have a look."

"Very far. The seaside over there is very high. Many people can't stand it. It's only more than 3,000 meters here. The average altitude on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is more than 4,000 meters."

Seeing Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo in the temple, Li Shimin and several princesses also understood that this princess had a high status in Tubo.

Seeing that the records are basically praising Princess Wencheng.

"So amazing!" Princess Gaoyang was young, but she also understood that it was not ordinary to be able to build a temple to worship her.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang felt a little sympathetic. The two were old and knew what it meant to come here for marriage.

It's interesting to come here to play now, but Princess Wencheng more than a thousand years ago didn't come here to play.

"She is one of the most famous princesses in the Tang Dynasty and one of the princesses who made the greatest contributions. Her historical contributions and status cannot be ignored in the cultural exchange between Han and Tibetan peoples and national unity, and her personal experience and emotions are also touching and sympathetic."

Xiao Ran does not believe in Buddhism and does not know how to kneel down. He is in awe and knows that this is an extraordinary person, so he has no intention of kneeling down.

Li Shimin's empress Changsun must not kneel down. Speaking of which, Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo are both juniors and should kneel down to Li Shimin's empress Changsun.

Several princesses did not kneel down.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang sympathized with this sister more.

Walk out of the Princess Wencheng Temple and continue walking forward to see a huge statue.

Getting closer to see the beautiful bun of the statue, you can tell at a glance that it is the style of the Tang Dynasty.

"Wow~" The little princess thought this was amazing.

Li Shimin also had a complicated heart, and Empress Changsun was even more so.

Coming here means losing a family member for the family.

Li Shimin pulled Empress Changsun, "No, she won't come again."

Empress Changsun nodded.

"Young Master, when I return to Chang'an, I want to find her, to make up for the contribution this sister has made to the Tang Dynasty!" Li Lizhi is kind-hearted.

"Okay, I have this idea too."

Li Shimin probably won't object to this.

After reading the information, you will know that this princess has contributed to the Tang Dynasty.

"Little Nangjun is hungry~" The little princess pulled Xiao Ran's arm.

"It's almost noon, let's go eat!" Xiao Ran picked up the little princess, who didn't want to walk when she was hungry.

"Hehe~Little Nangjun~Seven Youyou~"

"Okay, eat meat."

There is a big restaurant here, because it is off-season, there are not many people.

There are not many tables inside, it looks a bit deserted.

After ordering the dishes, Princess Gaoyang whispered, "No one is here. Is it not delicious?"

"I don't know, but this is the only restaurant nearby. If you don't eat this, you can only eat instant noodles." Xiao Ran didn't know whether it was delicious or not.

The price is not expensive, a little more expensive than ordinary local restaurants, which is reasonable, after all, this is a scenic spot.

"The price here is obviously expensive." Princess Yuzhang also saw that although she was not short of money, she was still concerned about the prices.

"The further west you go, the more expensive the prices are. It's normal here." Xiao Ran poured a glass of water for several people.

"It's because the transportation cost is high! It seems that many things here can't be grown, so they can only be transported here." Li Lizhi said.

"It should be like this." It doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive, provided that the taste is similar.

Even if you are not short of money, you can't be a sucker.

"So big?" Seeing the boiled yak slices, several people were also surprised.

Such a big bowl, this price is not expensive.

"Yes~" The little princess swallowed her saliva.

"Eat."

"It looks good, very appetizing!" Li Shimin picked up the chopsticks and handed them to Empress Changsun.

"Yak meat, I haven't eaten this before, just try it." Princess Yuzhang smiled.

"Sister, that was a yak just now!" Princess Gaoyang asked.

"Yeah."

"Hehe~" The little princess got what she wanted and ate yak.

"It's a bit hard to chew, chewy!" Li Shimin frowned.

Xiao Ran didn't know it was meat.Old, or just like that, it's the first time I've eaten it.

This thing is not common in the ancient city, I never thought of eating yak meat.

"Xiao Ran, when you have time, you can prepare it and provide some help. Dalang has declared war over there." Li Shimin reminded Xiao Ran.

"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible! Food and clothes are fast, but weapons are slower. I've talked to my uncle before, and they are more sensitive."

"I know that it will take some time to prepare the army, and it should be in time. Just try to be as fast as possible."

Xiao Ran is still very happy to help with this kind of thing. The amount required is large, and Li Shimin can't get Xiao Ran for free, but he can't let Xiao Ran cheat him.

Xiao Ran can't cheat in this kind of thing. Xiao Ran can cheat Li Shimin, but he won't cheat the Tang Dynasty.

It doesn't cost much to prepare some supplies.

"Young Master, are you still going west?" Li Lizhi put down his chopsticks and asked Xiao Ran.

"Since we are here, let's go a little further down. I want to see the salt lake. I've never seen it before." Xiao Ran looked at Li Shimin, "Uncle, salt is very expensive in the Tang Dynasty, but there are many salt lakes here. The salt storage is terrible. Why is it still a scarce resource?"

"I have heard of the salt lake. It is not close to the Central Plains area of ​​Chang'an City. If you take things from here to the Tang Dynasty, even the cheapest things will be sold at a sky-high price, even if the price itself is not expensive. The cost is too high."

Xiao Ran frowned, "If more are transported, won't the cost go down?"

"You don't know that the cost of transporting materials in the Tang Dynasty is different from now. Do you know the loss of food during transportation? Most of it is eaten on the way. Half of the food and grass that are actually sent to the front line is not efficient. It is shockingly low compared to now."

Xiao Ran did not ask any more questions and sent Li Shimin back to the Tang Dynasty. Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang left Empress Changsun, wanting her to see the salt lake as well.

Several princesses were in the car, and Empress Changsun found Xiao Ran, "Xiao Ran, Auntie has something to talk to you about."

Xiao Ran walked to the other side, knowing that Empress Changsun didn't want the other princesses to hear.
