Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 327: No. in the World

In the imperial city, a carriage slowly drove out from the palace gate.

Inside the chariot.

"Brother Jiang, I heard that your brother Li has already arrived at Beiding River and will go to Beijing tomorrow. Are you really not going to see him?"

Gu Changsheng looked at Jiang Linxian with a smile.

Jiang Linxian smiled and shook her head:

"We are so familiar with each other, it doesn't matter whether we meet or not."

Then he added: "By the way, Brother Gu, I'll trouble you to spend more time on the following matters."

Gu Changsheng:
"They are just small matters, don't worry, Brother Jiang."

Jiang Linxian nodded.

In fact, even if Li Rui didn't come this time, he would find a way to get Li Rui to come to Beijing.

Since Li Rui came to Kyoto to escort the third princess, he was spared some trouble.

Jiang Linxian: "Brother Gu, I heard that the third princess is a powerful character, aren't you worried?"

He is very self-aware.

He was only the deputy supervisor of the Imperial Observatory. As a deputy supervisor, he only had to complete the tasks assigned by the supervisor and he would not get involved in any other important matters.

Therefore, he just watched the show when the third princess came to the capital.

Gu Changsheng smiled slightly: "The Fourth Prince has always been a Buddhist monk, but in fact, his personality is most similar to your Majesty. This time he will be married to the Third Princess, and he should start to show his talent."

Immediately, he smiled even more broadly: "But what does this have to do with my Imperial Observatory?"

Jiang Linxian was speechless.

After all these years of getting along, I have found that Gu Changsheng is not only capable, but also has a big heart.

It seemed as if nothing in the world could trouble him.

soon.

The carriage drove to the gate of Kyoto.

Gu Changsheng jumped off the carriage, showing a serious look for the first time: "Brother Jiang, take care on your journey. If you can fight, fight. If you can't, come back and ask for help. It's not shameful."

Jiang Linxian rolled her eyes:

"Borrowing the prisoner is a good word."

Done.

The carriage moved slowly, raising a cloud of dust as it went away.

The smile on Gu Changsheng's lips gradually disappeared.

He murmured to himself:
"Brother Jiang, you don't know how important your status is. You must not die."

The river is widening, there are more and more ships around, and the buildings on the shore are becoming more and more dense.

"I have lived for decades in vain. This is my first time entering the capital."

Tan Hu opened his big mouth.

It's not just Tan Hu.

Among the hundreds of people on this ship, perhaps less than five of them have been to the capital.

"That's right. It's thanks to big brother that we can come to the capital to have fun this time."

"Gan, if I had known we were going to Beijing, I should have brought more money with me."

"Don't panic, the banknotes of Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce are from Yu State."

"Okay, okay, tonight, in the Jiaofangsi, no one can stop me. Whoever stops me will make me angry."

Ning Zhongtian and a few others were chatting animatedly.

There is even a happy scene of him holding the former prince and noble lady in his arms.

Everyone on the boat stretched their necks to look at the scenery on the shore with great interest.

On a deck.

He Qiannian rarely walked onto the deck, and Li Rui stood beside him, half a body length behind him out of courtesy.

"It's been a hundred years since I last visited Kyoto."

He Qiannian's eyes were full of nostalgia.

If he had not escorted the third princess of the Wu Kingdom this time, he might never have come to the capital again in his life.

That's not necessary.

"People never like to stay in one place for their whole lives. I have lived by the Beiding River since I was a child, and the more I look at it, the more I hate it."

Li Rui's heart moved slightly.

He took note of it silently.

He Qiannian, his ancestral home is in Zhili, Beidinghe.

"Little Li, this capital city is actually not that interesting."

"."

Li Rui was speechless.

You are an old man who has eaten and played a lot, so of course you find it boring, but you still have these poor brothers below you.

Look at Ning Zhongtian and the others.

It is no different from the old lady surnamed Liu entering the Grand View Garden in the previous life.

My eyeballs were about to fall into the canal.

Even he could not escape the temptation to see the charm of the capital city.

Li Rui glanced at the room where the third princess was. Chen Ming, who had been guarding the door, had disappeared. Since entering Zhili, he jumped off the boat and left.

Because this is Zhili, at the foot of the Dragon Court, nothing can go wrong.

Even the Ghost Cult wouldn't dare to cause trouble here.

Tight security.

The bigwigs in the capital must have known about Chen Ming's action. Even if Chen Ming got off the boat now, those bigwigs would have to think twice before taking action against the third princess.

At least a second-grade earthly immortal must be called upon to take action.

Soon, the large ship slowly sailed into the capital city without any obstruction.

The guards in the capital were notified early on, and the large ships were exempted from the complicated procedures for entering the city.

The bustling noise exploded in my ears as I passed through the majestic gate.

There are countless pleasure boats, countless merchant ships, and no fishing boats at all. It is extremely prosperous.

Ning Zhongtian and his companions had never seen such a scene before. There were many pleasure boats docked on the canal that were several stories higher than Zuixian Tower. Each of them had a profound aura and it was obvious at first glance that they were not ordinary passers-by.

What is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon?

In the capital, you might even meet a martial arts genius when you go out for breakfast.

If this happened in Qinghe, it would be something that the entire Yunzhou would not even dare to imagine.

There is a pool of water in the capital city.

In fact, it is a large pond that is several miles in radius and is the main dock for canal transportation.

The last word "tan" should be yinping, pronounced as "tan".

Locals in Beijing often use this to judge whether someone is from other place.

Jishuitan is connected to the moat.

When the ship Li Rui was on sailed into Jishuitan, there were already hundreds of merchant ships in the pool.

What is a prosperous scene?

This is the scene of prosperity.

This is something that the people of Yunzhou dare not even imagine.

The ship slowly approached the shore. Officials from the Honglu Temple and eunuchs and maids from the palace were already waiting on the shore. Leading the group was a big eunuch wearing a bullfighting costume. Just by looking at his aura, one could tell that his kung fu must be very good, at least above the innate level.

"Tsk tsk, it's worthy of being the best place."

A eunuch is congenital.

Li Rui actually had a sense of déjà vu as if he had practiced hard for a thousand years and then ascended to become one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers.

The eunuch walked onto the boat with a smile on his face.

Very perceptive.

He went straight to the third princess's room without even looking at Li Rui and other foreign officials.

arrogant.

But he does have the capital to be arrogant. Those who can wear bullfighting suits are real eunuchs, fourth-rank officials, and they serve the Holy Emperor at close range. They have even more power. It would be strange that they would look down on Li Rui and other country bumpkins from Yunzhou.

It takes about the time of an incense stick.

A large group of palace maids escorted the third princess Xia Yun out of the room, got off the boat and boarded an exquisite and gorgeous small boat, heading towards the narrow waterway in the corner of Jishuitan.

That's where the moat leads to.

The goal is to enter the imperial city from the moat.

Of course, people like Li Rui are not qualified to enter the imperial city. Being able to take a look from afar is enough for them to brag about it for a long time when they return to Yunzhou.

The third princess was sent away.

Nie Siming left and came back.

He seemed to be in a good mood and was accompanied by a young official from the Honglu Temple.

The young official was very polite:
"You have come from afar, thank you for your hard work. I have prepared accommodation for you in the Honglu Temple. You can rest for a few days. There are many places to visit in Kyoto, so you may as well go for a walk."

The Honglu Temple is one of the Nine Temples, and is in charge of foreign guests and court ceremonies. Those who can be served by the Honglu Temple are all royal relatives and nobles.

The town of Annan alone is not qualified enough for the Honglu Temple to intervene.

Li Rui benefited from the third princess Xia Yun.

Before getting married, Xia Yun was the princess of the Wu Kingdom. Since it was a foreign affair, of course she had to be received by the Honglu Temple.

After hearing this, Ning Zhongtian and other soldiers showed even more excitement in their eyes.

He had enough of Jiang Feng and almost lost his life.

It's finally time to enjoy.

The young official from the Honglu Temple led the Anning Guards to a secluded house near Jishuitan.

This is the Dianke Office of the Honglu Temple.

The so-called Dianke Office was the accommodation provided by the Honglu Temple to foreign envoys. It was not luxurious, but it was quiet in the midst of a bustling city.

In the capital, judging a family's status by the exquisite decoration of their house is an understatement.

The key is location.

The small courtyard on the edge of the imperial city is rarer than the eight-story mansion on the edge of the city. You can't even ask for it. Even officials of the third rank have to queue up. You may never have the chance to live at the foot of the imperial city until you die.

Who says the capital city is not short of kings, princes, generals and ministers?

"That's not so good."

Ning Zhongtian walked into the Dianke Office excitedly, but immediately lost interest.

This Dianke Office is also quiet and elegant.

But it is not as good as An Ningwei’s own house, so it is not surprising.

Li Rui walked into the door with a smile and said to Ning Zhongtian:

"General Nie said that we will stay in Kyoto for seven days. Tell the brothers under his command to be humble and not to cause any trouble. They must travel in pairs of five. If anyone does not follow the rules and goes out alone, they will be punished by military law."

"Okay, big brother."

Ning Zhongtian nodded seriously.

This is Kyoto, there shouldn't be too many people you can't afford to offend.

If you are not careful, you will offend an important person. It would be fine if you lose your life, but it would be troublesome if the disaster falls on the An Ning Guards.

Nie Siming's reputation is useless in the capital.

Because no restriction is too strict.

Li Rui did not completely confine these hundreds of people to their homes, as he was well aware that it was better to loosen up than to block. Too strict control would be counterproductive and cause a big mess, so he just needed to impose some restrictions.

The An Ning guards had just settled down.

Soon.

There were only a few people left in the Dianke Office, even Nie Siming and He Qiannian had gone out.

Li Rui was not in a hurry to go out.

Instead, he stayed in the guest room until the evening, until someone knocked on his door.

As soon as I opened the door.

I saw a middle-aged man with outstanding aura and extremely elegant appearance standing at the door.

The middle-aged man smiled and said:
"Brother Li, right? My name is Gu Changsheng."
