Chapter 267 The Capital
The capital city, as the center of the entire Tianyu Dynasty and an important hub, is undoubtedly prosperous and magnificent. Just standing at the gate of the city, Chunqiu has already experienced the unusual solemnity. Compared with the behemoth before him, Chunqiu feels Linfang County, where she lived before, was a poor mountain valley, and she couldn't help being discouraged. Anyone who has been to the capital city will be attracted by its magnificent appearance, and then be deeply intoxicated by it, unable to extricate itself.

Chunqiu's eyes are full of hot emotions, it is an indescribable intuition, Chunqiu is a human being, and it is not that she has not visited famous holy places in her previous life, although she has seen many more majestic buildings in her previous life. There is no such thing as the shock that comes in front of me, which makes people's hearts flutter.

That kind of emotion that bursts from the bottom of my heart, that kind of strong spiritual collision, made the excited spring and autumn unable to be described in words.

The bodyguard team stood not far from the city gate and did not move for a long time. Not only Chunqiu was absent-minded, Master Wang and the others were also watching the scene in front of them intently. Everyone's eyes were wide open, as if observing Anything important is ordinary, and I can't bear to miss it in the blink of an eye.

Chunqiu herself was awakened by the resistance of the carriage's sudden advance. The strong buffer force made Chunqiu almost be thrown from the curtain in front. Fortunately, she had quick eyesight and quick hands to hold the wooden barrier beside the carriage in time.

"Oh, it hurts," Chunqiu blurted out habitually, holding the handle with her left hand, and quickly touched the part on the top of her head with her right hand. Although most of the force was blocked by herself, she still knocked aside In the compartment, and the place where it was knocked was a door frame.

Chunqiu glared resentfully at the "culprit" who caused her to kowtow to the head, although the wooden Zhuangzi in front of her could not speak, but this did not prevent Chunqiu from releasing her anger.

Sitting in the carriage, he muttered softly for a while, until all his depression was dispelled, Chunqiu stopped, and then turned his gaze to the outside, and stuck his head out of the carriage by the way.

As the center of a country, the capital is the place where the biggest boss of the entire dynasty lives. The deployment of troops around the main city is naturally extremely important.

Just when Chunqiu himself was muttering in the carriage, the bodyguard team had already arrived at the gate of the city. Apart from the soldiers not far away who were riding tall horses and constantly patrolling around, there were also passers-by with weapons under the gate. Soldiers, Chunqiu compared the soldiers in front of him with the ones in Linfang, and found that the two soldiers at the gate of Linfang City inspected them, just like playing with children.

Chunqiu was a little dumbfounded, especially to the group of soldiers in front of him, who still looked serious and staid, with a strong evil spirit.

The pedestrians in front of him were walking faster and faster, Chunqiu was also asked by Qingsong beside him to get out of the car for inspection, because of the particularity and importance of the capital city, no matter who is in the car, as long as they enter the city, they must get out of the car for inspection. (Neither does the Son of Heaven)
Chunqiu walked to Zhou Huaiyan's side, and carefully looked at the passers-by around him. The capital was really crowded with people. In just a short while, Chunqiu had already seen several carriages going out of the city. Just by looking at the appearance, he knew it was extraordinary.

Zhou Huaiyan lowered his head and asked Qingfeng, a servant beside him, to pay the entrance fee, while he kept beating the back of his hand with a folding fan.

After a while, Qingfeng came back, and the silver in his hand was replaced by a blank piece of paper.

"Master, that's back." Qingfeng lowered his head and handed over the white paper in his hand.

Zhou Huaiyan reached out to take it, folded it and put it in his cuff without looking at it, and then responded with a "huh".

Chunqiu was curious on the side, and asked quickly, "Brother, what did you put up?" After Chunqiu finished speaking, he also glanced at Zhou Huaiyan's cuffs that had not been put down.

Zhou Huaiyan smiled, and waved the arm with the white paper in front of Chunqiu, "Junior Sister is so smart, guess what?"

Chunqiu couldn't hear Zhou Huaiyan's teasing, taking advantage of Zhou Huaiyan's inattention, Chunqiu directly reached out and grabbed Zhou Huaiyan's arm, and took out the white paper with a corner, "Senior brother, since you don't say it, the younger sister can only outsmart you." It's gone." Chunqiu triumphantly raised the white paper in his hand, then opened it directly, and looked down.

Zhou Huaiyan also couldn't help but laugh when he saw the other party's obvious "bandit" behavior.

The font on the top of the white paper is not difficult to read, Chunqiu also learned calligraphy from Yang Chunming for two years before, after reading ten lines at a glance, Chunqiu also knew what the white paper in her hand was for.

"Senior brother, here you are." Chunqiu smiled and called out sweetly, folded the white paper in his hand, and returned it to Zhou Huaiyan respectfully.

"Hehe, let's go to the city." Zhou Huaiyan took it, put the white paper away, said to Chunqiu, and walked into the city.

Chunqiu followed behind Zhou Huaiyan with a smile, walking unhurriedly, thinking that the white paper he had seen turned out to be a talisman for entering the city.

The talisman is equivalent to a kind of passport in later generations. Only those who have obtained the talisman can enter the city. When leaving the city by the way, the talisman must be handed in.

Of course, this kind of talisman is only for outsiders like Spring and Autumn. As for the natives in the capital, they only need to take a talisman to go out of the city.

After entering the city, Chunqiu began to look at the surrounding buildings in an open and honest manner.

Different from the strong modern atmosphere of later generations, the ancient streets are full of charm.

There are many shops on both sides of the streets in the capital, teahouses, wine shops, workshops, and small buildings. A bit hazy and poetic.

Chunqiu looked lazy, observing the busy street a little casually, stopping from time to time to watch, with lightness under his feet.

Since entering the capital, Chunqiu has not returned to the car,
Zhou Huaiyan's expression changed when he saw it, and he directly accompanied Chunqiu to watch the beautiful scenery of the capital.

When the sun rises high, the gorgeous sunlight is sprinkled between the brick and tile city walls everywhere, the abrupt cornices, the high-flying shop signboards, and the sparkling The chariots and horses, the endless stream of pedestrians walking around, and the peaceful and comfortable smiling faces all reflect the people's self-satisfaction with the prosperous world.

Because of Chunqiu's high interest, Zhou Huaiyan and I gave in to Chunqiu. Master Wang and others saw the behavior of the two of them and slowed down the speed of the convoy. Chunqiu was like a bird that strayed into a holy place, showing her incoherent energy With enthusiasm, Chunqiu will happily pull Zhou Huaiyan to watch something interesting and delicious along the way, and even buy some gadgets to enjoy himself.
