Chapter 93
There are six seas in the capital.
The first three seas are the North Sea, the middle sea and the South China Sea.
Beihai is open to the outside world as a park.
However, there are armed police on guard in Zhonghai and Nanhai, and tourists are strictly prohibited, because they are collectively known as Zhongnanhai!
The latter three seas: Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai, collectively known as Shichahai.
The sea is actually just a few lakes.
The reason why it is called the sea is actually a continuation of the name in the Yuan Dynasty.
Nomads live on the plateau, and water sources are extremely scarce. After the Yuan Dynasty established its capital in Beijing, the sea was used to describe the pool in order to cherish the water sources in Dadu city.
To put it bluntly, I haven't seen the real sea
The West Sea at the top of Shichahai is also called Jishuitan.
As the saying goes: without Jishuitan, there will be no Yuandadu.
Without Yuandu, there would be no Shangjing urban pattern today.
Jishuitan is the end of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal. It was once the general wharf of water transport in the capital and the royal elephant washing pond.
Since the Yuan Dynasty, elephants from Siam and Myanmar have been used as means of transport and court honor guards. On summer dog days, domesticators will lead elephants to Jishuitan to take a bath, so it is also called elephant washing pool.
Today, Shangjing has become a super first tier city in the world.
But here, it still retains the original folk culture. The traditional folk architecture with the characteristics of the old city forms a sharp contrast with the high-rise buildings outside the third ring road.
Dongming hutong is located by the West Sea. Open the door and you can see Shichahai not far away.
The summer waves here are as flat as a mirror, weeping willows, lotus in full bloom and dense fragrance.
In winter, Shichahai will become a natural skating rink.
Beautiful as Dai, beautiful scenery.
If you want to describe it more intuitively, you can only mention the house price.
The house price here
Twenty five thousand square!
Chen Xi walked into Dongming Hutong with the little guy in her arms.
Although the little guy played in Beijing for a few days, Chen Xi took her to some big scenic spots. Have you ever been to this old street with great folk flavor?
So when she saw the rows of high walled courtyards, she immediately felt very novel and chattered.
Feng Mintai took the road ahead.
The alley was not deep. After walking a few hundred meters, he stopped, pointed to the deep house and courtyard next to him, and said with a flattering smile: "boss, this is the house... Guangliang gate is still a big family..."
The so-called quadrangles are houses in the southeast and northwest, enclosing the courtyard in the middle.
Because there is only one door in the courtyard, the style of the gate is so exquisite that the identity of the family can be seen from the gate.
There are six main types of gates, Guangliang gate, Jinzhu gate, Manzi gate, Ruyi gate, narrow gate and wall gate, and the grades are from high to low.
Guangliang gate, also known as Guangliang gate, is the form of house gate adopted by officials with a certain grade. The scale of Guangliang gate is larger than that of ordinary people's houses, so it will be very prominent in the houses along the streets of Hutong.
Chen Xi hesitated in front of the gate.
But when he carefully observed the surrounding environment.
His heart sank slowly.
A lock hung on the door ring indicates that no one is at home, otherwise the door should be locked with a wooden latch from the inside.
Most importantly, he didn't hear anything in the compound at all!
"Hoo"
Chen Xi took a long breath, and then came directly to the gate with the little guy in her arms.
Although he knew there was no one in the room, he gently shook the doorknob and knocked.
"Bang, bang, bang"
With each sound, Chen Xi's heart will beat.
However, he knocked for a while, but there was still no movement behind the door.
No way, Chen Xi had to gently touch the iron lock on the doorknob and open the iron lock with Zhenyuan.
After putting the iron lock aside in the corner, Chen Xi held the little guy in one hand and pushed open the door in the other.
Maybe it's because I know this is my mother's hometown, so the little guy's little face is very tight, and his hands are tightly around Chen Xi's neck.
The door opened.
The first thing that came into view was a shadow wall.
The screen wall is very ordinary, but there is a big word "Qin" engraved in the middle.
Qin family.
This is a two in quadrangle.
The gate of the house is in the southeast corner. After entering the gate is the front yard.
There is a door in the middle of the front yard, also known as the flower pendant door.
The flower pendant gate is the boundary between the front yard and the inner yard. The front yard is used to receive guests. Outsiders in the inner yard are generally not allowed to go in and out at will.
The so-called "the gate does not go out, and the two gates do not step", the two gates here refer to the flower pendant gate.
Since she had broken in, Chen Xi would not be polite, so she went to the inner yard with her child in her arms.
