When Gu heard the news of entering Beijing, it spread like a whirlwind all over the capital. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 I don't know how many families are happy and how many are worried.

Not to mention the reactions of all parties, Gu Wen was led by Xiang Thirty-seven along Xuanwu Avenue all the way to the north, and then turned to the east of Zhuque Street, after several twists and turns, but came to the foot of the imperial city.

As a city within a city, the imperial city was built on Longshou Mountain. Longshou Mountain was originally a hill in the north of the central part of the capital, and when the Great Chu established the country, the whole hill was leveled into a square earthen platform, and the imperial city was built on it.

The walls of the imperial city are thirty-three zhang high, made of basalt fine stones, and are guarded by ten real people who personally set up a large array of heaven and earth, and are indestructible. On all sides is surrounded by a moat twenty zhang wide, and nine gates are opened.

Among them, on the central axis of the north direction is the Longxuan Avenue of 45 zhang wide, which takes the meaning of ninety-five. This avenue starts from entering the Zhonghua Gate, except for ancestor worship, parliament and great gifts, chariots and horses are not allowed to walk in it.

The two avenues on the left and right, the left hand Zeyang is for the hundred officials to go up and down, and the right side of Yinghai is the soldier and the hundred workers.

Gu Wen and his entourage, but they took the left-hand Zeyang Avenue and went straight to the imperial city. In front of the Zhongsheng Gate, the Gyeonggi Sanwei 300-member team stopped.

As a protection force of the Beijing Division, according to the constitution of Great Chu, unless the emperor personally decrees, it is not allowed to enter the inner imperial city.

The Gyeonggi Sanwei army was extremely strict, and he never made friends with the government and the opposition when he was in the army, and even after he was discharged from the army, he could not talk about military affairs for the rest of his life.

Gu Wen said goodbye to the captain of the Gyeonggi Sanwei with a fist. Speaking of which, he has traveled tens of thousands of miles, and Gu Wen only knows that this person's surname is Zheng, and he doesn't know the specific name and official position. Captain Zheng raised his fist and beat his chest, and led the team away after saluting.

The remaining twenty guards of the Inner Mansion changed into golden armor and red cloaks, tidied up their appearance, changed into unbladed long swords for ceremonial use, and began to escort Gu Wen and his family into the imperial city.

The imperial city is actually the residence of the main sect of the Great Chu Xiang clan. The Xiang clan was originally a southern wang clan, but since Xiang Yuntian established the country, it has accelerated its reproduction. There are a total population of one million in the imperial city, except for the retainers, slaves, and vassal relatives, mainly the children of the Xiang family.

For non-clan members, only the incumbent ministers of the third rank or above, the family of the minister, the parliamentary committee and other important figures can live in the imperial city. It can be said that staying in the imperial city is a symbol of status.

Gu Wen was able to settle in the imperial city with a white body, which can be said to be one of the few people in the history of Great Chu.

At the heart of the imperial city is the Great Chu Palace, the exclusive residence of Emperor Xiang Yan. Gu Wen and his entourage were heading east on Zhongyuan Street, and they could already see the dark golden roof of Taihe Palace. Of course, it is definitely not vulgar gold, but mica pure gold that can resist meteorites outside the sky.

Xu Xiaofeng, a migrant woman, was already dazzled and frightened when she looked through the curtain in the carriage that could only see in one direction. Russell was quite calm, and whispered to his mother-in-law about the scenes, customs, and allusions of the capital along the way, relieving the worries of several old people when they first arrived in a luxurious place.

Gu Wen's ears are deaf and clear-sighted, and he hears clearly outside the carriage, and he likes the daughter-in-law he forcibly "picked up".

Because of the difference in the immortal martial system, the capital of Great Chu is more majestic and majestic than the ancient buildings of the Blue Star Imperial Capital, and Gu Wen also feels a feast for his eyes. Of course, he was accustomed to seeing all kinds of supernatural creations in the Blue Star Imperial Capital, such as "Bird's Nest", "Bird's Legs", "Bird's Egg" and the like, Gu Wen said that he was "still in the range of acceptance" for the Imperial City's blindly Zhongzhengda style.

For example, this building in front of you. The twelve-meter-high red wall, the vermilion lacquer gate with thirty-six nails, the eight-step white jade steps, and a pair of three-zhang high purple dazzling snow crystals in front of the steps. It's just that the door number above the gate is still obscured by a red silk.

"It's good, of course, but it's a pity that it's too big, and there are no 1,800 people, so I can't support popularity. Gu Wen also wanted to be reserved and save a like.

But at the opening of the door, a white-haired old man in a blue robe came out with dozens of mermaids, men and women on the left and women in front of the steps, and bowed and saluted together:

"Welcome Master Gu home!Master Gu is auspicious!Mrs. Gu is auspicious!Mrs. Gu Xu is auspicious!Mrs. Gu is auspicious!Mrs. Gu is auspicious!Mrs. Xu is auspicious!"

Gu Wen suddenly felt that the sky was thundering, and it seemed that he had instantly become an evil landlord and old wealth, so he had to nod with a smile and said:

"Hello everyone!

"Serve Master Gu!" the servants of the Gu Mansion responded in unison, well-trained.

The blue-shirted and white-haired old man rushed forward, only to see that he had a childish face, excellent complexion, a straight back, and meticulously cleaned up and down, not even a single messy white hair. The old man lowered his hand to Gu Wen and said:

"Master, the younger one is Liu Gui, the current chief butler of the Gu Mansion, with five hundred servants for the time being. The lord has worked hard from afar, please go in and rest first. ”

He said to Xiang Thirty-seven again: "The thirty-seventh master has worked hard, and the guards of the Inner Mansion have worked hard." You have worked hard to protect Master Gu's family all the way. Gu Fu prepared a small profit and expressed his gratitude. It's inconvenient for you to be on duty, so I'll send someone to the house. ”

As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, several healthy servants walked out quickly with a few loads of dowry. These bride gifts are mostly some gold beads, satin, pills, charms, etc., which are worth a lot but not excessively, and they are sealed one by one, all of them are held in transparent crystal boxes, and the picks are tied with red flowers, and the ribbons read: "Gu Fu Thanksgiving Gift".

The servants put down the bride price and let Gu Wen and his party look at it. At this time, Russell had already stepped out of the car with the support of the two maids, glanced at it slightly, and nodded slightly.

Liu Gui was slightly happy, waved his hand again, and the servants picked up the bride price and marched to the end of the street. Passing by the streets and alleys, I also gave gifts to some seemingly passers-by. Those passers-by were actually military commanders, and they all accepted them with a smile and quickly disappeared.

Xiang Thirty-seven said to Gu Wen at this time: "Mr. Gu, please enter the house to rest first." Tomorrow, Emperor Xiang may issue an order to summon him. We're leaving!"

The military commander and the janissaries left one after another, Gu Wen turned over and fell into the snow, took a light breath, and under the guidance of Liu Gui, he walked up the white jade steps.

Crossing the threshold of Zhu Tan, which was two feet high and half a foot thick, Gu Wen glanced back, and saw the slaves and maids like ants, some of them were supporting Russell and Xu Xiaofeng, and some were carrying a soft sedan chair to invite the four elders, those who carried luggage, and those who led horses, although they were busy, they were still in order.

Gu Wen's eyes skimmed over the busy crowd, skimming the streets and the rows of mansions opposite, past the shadows of the city walls in the distance and the pale gray ridges of the Qiyuan Mountains beyond. I saw a bright red sun slowly falling in the clouds.

Three points of melancholy suddenly flowed in his heart, and Gu Wen was a little distracted in an instant.

Suddenly, a soft little hand put on his hand, Gu Wen lowered his head, and saw Russell smiling and looking up at him. Her expression was indistinguishable in the backlight, but she could still be seen with gentle comfort in her eyes.

Gu Wen's heart warmed, he slowly exhaled the turbid breath held in his chest, reached out to clasp Russell's little hand, smiled slightly, and the two walked side by side towards the deep courtyard.

In the dead of night, on the low-key and luxurious rosewood bed, Gu Wen and Russell lay side by side.

Unlike the legend, the master bedroom of the Gu Mansion, which is the same in shape, is not too big. According to Feng Shui, an oversized bedroom will have Yin Qi deposited and Yang Qi insufficient, which is not good for the owner.

However, for Gu Wen, this not too big and unfamiliar room made him feel as if he was back in the hotel where the Blue Star consultant stayed on a business trip. The only difference is the petite woman who sticks to herself next to her.

Today in front of outsiders, Russell unexpectedly showed the aura of a wealthy lady, acted in an orderly manner, and handled the housework in an orderly manner, which impressed Gu Wen.

However, in the middle of the night, Russell was close to him, wrapped his arms around Gu Wen's arms with both hands, and squeezed his body into Gu Wen's arms as much as possible, like a little girl desperately looking for security.

Although Russell's breathing was slow and long, Gu Wen knew that she was not asleep. In this strange environment, except for the most familiar husband, everything is actually unknown.

Feeling Russell's softness pressing on him, as well as the faint and dark fragrance that kept emerging, Gu Wen's heart was filled with a strange peace. I couldn't help but gently stroke Russell's smooth hair with my free hand.

Russell's small body trembled slightly, raised his head and opened his eyes. The darkness in the room didn't stop the gentle light in her eyes.

"Is this happiness?" Gu Wen suddenly had a little realization:

"It seems that happiness is not so mysterious and unattainable. It's ridiculous that I was in a hurry in my previous life, and I don't know how many olive branches that I was lucky enough to have been discovered. ”

"But happiness really seems to depend on luck. It's just that when luck strikes, don't let it go easily. ”

Gu Wen was thinking about a serious life, and slowly lowered his head and began to kiss Russell's hair and forehead.

Since the departure from Duntou Village, the two of them have rarely had such intimate time, and Russell was a little shy and evasive at first.

When Gu Wen's kiss slowly lowered along with the bridge of his forehead, eyes and nose, Russell's somewhat stiff body began to relax. She looked up slightly, and their lips met.

The temperature in the room began to rise slowly.

"Hmm..... is it okay, I'm going to see the emperor tomorrow." ”

"It's not good! What is the emperor, let him wait first......"

Therefore, a man who is dominated by the lower body cannot reason with his mouth. (To be continued.) )
