Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 7909

Outside the gate of Zhongjing City.

"This is Zhongjing, and the city tower is quite tall."

Finally arriving at the gate of Zhongjing, Luo Xingchen lifted the curtain and glanced outside.

"Zhongjing is the most prosperous city in Liao Kingdom, even more prosperous than Shangjing." Shi Yiyun sat upright, like a dignified and virtuous lady.

"That's natural. Zhongjing is surrounded by water on three sides and leads to the sea. There are many merchant ships from countries such as Sunrise Country. When there are more people doing business here, the city will naturally prosper."

Luo Xingchen had heard of the name of Zhongjing a long time ago, and Yang's firm relied on the ocean companies founded by foreigners to do business in Zhongjing.

On the surface, the Liao State did not have any major business with the Qi State. In fact, the merchants took advantage of various loopholes in the law, and the business was getting bigger and bigger, and it never stopped.

Many high-level executives and nobles in the Liao Kingdom knew the truth, but they still chose to turn a blind eye, probably because there were huge interests in it.

And the upper class is precisely those with vested interests, who have obtained huge wealth from trade, so how can they give up the business they have obtained.

"There are people checking at the gate, our city entry credentials are all forged..." Luo Xingchen was a little worried.

"Who said our city entry certificates were forged? Ours are all real."

"Also, even if we don't have a certificate, we can still enter the city."

Shi Yiyun opened a corner of the curtain.

At this time, Luo Xingchen happened to see Lan Yiping stuffing a silver ingot into the hands of the inspecting soldiers.

The soldier weighed them a few times with his hands, and his serious expression suddenly turned into a happy smile. With a wave of his palm, he let them in.

Luo Xingchen was slightly taken aback.

If it was in a small remote place, the scene in front of me would be understandable. However, Zhongjing is the largest city in Daliao, and the soldiers guarding the gate dared to openly collect money. Is there any reason for such a rotten country not to perish?

"Look, Zhongjing Fenghua is quite different from Daqi."

The carriage was walking slowly on the road, Shi Yiyun said casually while eating the fruit on the plate.

"It's very different. Compared with the luxurious ladies like Zhongjing, the capital of Daqi is more like Xiaojiabiyu." Luo Xingchen said.

"But the imperial palace in Daqi's capital is resplendent and resplendent. Daliao's Shangjing, Zhongjing, and Xiajing all have imperial palaces, but the imperial palace in Zhongjing is small in scale and has a small family air." Shi Yiyun said.

"Sister Shi, have you been to the capital of Daqi?" Luo Xingchen raised his eyebrows.

Shi Yiyun is the Great Saintess of the Fire Worship Cult, but she has been to the capital of Daqi?
"I went there many years ago. At that time, Master took me to travel around the world. Naturally, I must go to the capital of Daqi." Shi Yiyun said.

"I heard that Zoroastrianism has a strict set of etiquette rules. Didn't they say that saintesses are not allowed to wander around?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"Where did you hear the gossip? Don't listen to outside news, it's all fake." Shi Yiyun said.

"That's true. When I was drinking tea at the Daqi Jingcheng teahouse, I sometimes heard the storyteller talk about Zoroastrianism. They said that the Zoroastrian saints sucked up ten men in one night, and the Zoroastrian leader ate ten virgins in one meal... I never believed it." Luo Xingchen smiled.

Shi Yiyun's cheeks turned red, and then she was a little annoyed.

"Who is talking so nonsense? I'm still a virgin! The saints of Zoroastrianism must remain pure!"

"Isn't that right? I think that Chuxue had an affair with Beililong." Luo Xingchen said.

"Chuxue, he is still a saint, so it is impossible for him to be with Beililong...Although she attacked me secretly and is my enemy, I am telling the truth." Shi Yiyun said.

"Okay, I believe you can't do it!" Luo Xingchen said hastily.

"What I'm saying is the truth, there is no falsehood, forget it, I can't explain it clearly to you little boy, in the future, you will understand." Shi Yiyun decided not to break up with Luo Xingchen, and simply ate the fruit, looking at the side of the road scenery.

Lan Yiping, who was sitting in front of the car, chuckled a few times and said, "Okay, stop arguing, we're almost at the end of the road."

Sure enough, not long after, the carriage stopped slowly.

Luo Xingchen glanced sideways.

The place where the carriage stopped was the doorway of a noble family, facing two huge stone sculptures, but the sculptures were not common lions, but rare elephants.

A wooden plaque hangs over the door.

"Kaiping Palace, we are going to Kaiping Palace!" Luo Xingchen was slightly surprised.

This Daliao Kaiping King is not a simple character.

The first King Kaiping was a hero who joined the Tuoba clan as a survivor of the Southern Dynasty when the Daliao Dynasty was founded.

King Kaiping was amazing in martial arts and unparalleled in strategy, and made great contributions to the founding of Daliao.

The Taizu of the Daliao Dynasty named him Kaiping King, which means to open Taiping for the Daliao.

And the Kaiping kings of the following dynasties were all outstanding generations, and there were no mediocre talents.

There is no mystery in it, and the source lies in the family management skills of a generation of Kaiping kings.

He only used one method, that is, if the descendants want to inherit the title of King Kaiping, they do not rely on the sons and concubines, nor do they rely on the order of seniority, but rely on military merit!

All descendants will join the army, and the winner will be judged by military merit.

This generation of King Kaiping also rose from the army, defeated several of his brothers, and inherited the throne.

But back then, the king of Kaiping was marginalized by the succeeding emperor after the princess left the Liao Kingdom because he secretly supported the eldest princess.

Now King Kaiping has been living in the mansion for many years, and many of them have never been involved in world affairs.

What puzzled Luo Xingchen was, how could this king of Kaiping have anything to do with the Fire Worship Cult?
The carriage paused for a moment, and drove in directly from the side door of the palace, and finally stopped in a small courtyard inside.

A man in Tsing Yi stood under the eaves with his hands behind his back and a gentle smile on his face.

A bird cage hangs from the eaves.

There was a parakeet inside.

When Luo Xingchen saw the parrot, he thought of the parrot raised by the owner of Peacock Villa.

Before heading to Qishan Pass with Mo Anbai, he separated from the owner Xian Yuzhong.

If he had known that he would be taken away by Shi Yiyun, he would have asked Xian Yuzhong to go to Qishan Pass with him. Anyway, Xian Yuzhong didn't have any important matters, he was just going to other places to make money.

Lan Yiping jumped out of the car first.

"When I saw the letter, the Lan family thought it was a joke when they wanted to go to Zhongjing. Unexpectedly, they saw it."

The man in Tsing Yi smiled happily, obviously in a happy mood.

"What? You don't want to see me?" Lan Yiping raised her eyebrows.

"How can it be? I've been looking forward to your coming for a long time. For so many years, I have sent people to look for you everywhere... I was very happy when I received the letter." The man in Tsing Yi laughed.

"Don't worry, I can't die."

"Wait a minute, I still have two junior disciples, you send someone to arrange a place for them." Lan Yiping said.
