Chapter 21: The Summer Capital

On the ninth day of the fourth month, the Xia Yuan banquet is an annual feast of the Xia Dynasty, and the banquet is of high standard, although it is held once a year, it is definitely not just anyone who can be invited. First of all, you need strength, and secondly, you need background, or you have a great contribution to the imperial court!

It is very rare for a congenital to be invited, because the innate is not considered a cultivator! Only when you step into the Jindan can you be regarded as a cultivator. Commander Xiong glanced at the invitation card in Xu Chuan's hand in disbelief, he, the commander of the Huang Fengwei, the cultivator of the Jindan Shidan Realm, and the celebrity under the command of King Jin, were not qualified to go to the Xia Yuan banquet!

In the nineteen states of the Xia Dynasty, how many princes and nobles are capable of producing people, and the quota for the Xia Yuan banquet is only one hundred and sixty-eight, Xu Chuan is actually qualified?

"It's really evil." Commander Xiong was not angry in his heart, and with his brain and bearing, he couldn't think of any meaning, but he felt that the court was blind, and turned around and left the Xu Mansion angrily.

Xu Chuan took the invitation and thought for a moment.

Invite yourself to the Xia Yuan banquet? This is a special honor of the imperial court, but with the strength and background of his own appearance, he has this qualification? He also felt strange.

This is like a big media platform holding an annual meeting in modern times, and the invites are all bigwigs and giant crocodiles in the same field, Tianjiao and nobles, and they fell coldly on a small shrimp, what's going on?

Xu Chuan couldn't help but glance at his prestige value, more than 7,600 prestige values, can it have this effect? It shouldn't be...

Regarding the matter of Princess Miaoyin, it's just that Emperor Xia and Emperor Qi have ventilated, and they can choose a good match for their heirs at will, this kind of thing is a private matter, pay attention to decency, and the door is right, so naturally it will not be earth-shattering.

As long as there is a little rumor, the circle that should be known will be known, like some ordinary people, small places such as Fucheng, is it necessary to know?

So this is a secret, even if it is Qianxiaolou, it will not be hyped up.

And the news spread, and learned that Xu Chuan was going to participate in a court feast, which was a special honor, and the prefect's government was overjoyed, first the emperor rewarded him, and personally issued an order, and then the Xia Yuan banquet, which was almost a state banquet, this is a sign of soaring and becoming famous as a young man, even Su Qing was a little happy, in her "memory", the Xia Yuan banquet was a court event, and there were very few people who could enter this threshold, and every year there would be big forces from all sides who wanted to fight for a place and show their faces.

Xu Chuan has the opportunity to go, which is a great thing!

On the fifth day of the first month of April, it will soon come, this is also the day when Xu Chuan left Dingjiang Mansion and went to the summer capital of Zhongzhou.

Su Qing dressed him up early, although he was still wearing a cyan enlightenment robe, but the headband on his head was replaced with a silver hoop, and white jade was inlaid with white jade, and even the clothes inside were inlaid with silver wire, and a belt Su Qing embroidered the mountains and rivers with his own skillful hands, with two jade beads falling, and the boots were also gangsters on a white background, and the lotus pattern embroidered with black embroidery thread could be faintly seen on it.

In Su Qing's words, this is called stepping by step to give birth to lotus, and the splendor.

"I'm not going on a blind date, or I'm going to a banquet, why are I dressed up so grandly?" Xu Chuan looked at Su Qing, who was squatting down in front of him and pulling the hem of his clothes, and couldn't help laughing.

"How can it not be grand to meet Emperor Qi, and in front of the Chinese military officials of the dynasty, as well as famous people from all sides." Su Qing got up with a smile, stood in front of Xu Chuan, looked at Xu Chuan's dress, as if looking at a work of art that she had carefully made, and nodded with satisfaction.

Xu Chuan looked at Su Qing in front of him fixedly, and he could smell a faint aroma on the tip of his nose.

"What are you looking at?" Su Qing noticed his gaze, and couldn't help but reach out and sweep a strand of green silk hanging down from his forehead, and asked softly.

During this period of time, Dingjiang Mansion has been calm and unwavering, and the relationship between the two has also developed rapidly under Xu Chuan's initiative, Su Qing has loved Xu Chuan, and Lang is a concubine, of course, there is no hindrance.

So Xu Chuan's main daily life is... Absorb the cultivation of the Purple Void True Dragon Dragon Ball and the cultivation of the Spirit Stone, comprehend the artistic conception, control the magic weapon with divine sense, etc., and then accompany Su Qing to vigorously develop the love career. How could the progress not be rapid, so the two of them except for the last step... Basically, everything that should be done between lovers has been done.

In the middle of this, Xu Chuan also discovered one thing, cultivating the Divine Hidden Golden Pill and knowing the sea and turning the spiritual platform into a spiritual platform, the divine consciousness can be scattered to cover itself, which can not only avoid the investigation of others, but also isolate the two lonely souls in the spiritual platform "peeping". Causing the Snow Mountain Swordsman to protest!

However, the protest was ineffective, and he was directly imprisoned by Xu Chuan in the "Lingtai Little Black House".

"I'm looking at my lady." Xu Chuan said with a smile.

Su Qing reached out and patted Xu Chuan's chest when she heard this, she had also reached the innate level under the supply of Xu Chuan's spirit stone, but this beat naturally did not contain any true qi, and said angrily: "It's nonsense again." ”

Although she was angry, there was a sweet smile on her face. Now that Xu Chuan's position has been stabilized, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds, reaching a height that many people can't reach in their lifetime, his health is healthy, and he is already a great achievement to be an ordinary person, how can Ailang come to this point, how can she not be happy?

She still remembers that she was picked up by Xu Chuan's mother on the street, she will never forget that winter, she curled up in the streets of Dingzhou in embarrassment, she thought she was going to die like that, it was the weak woman who was pregnant, holding her in her arms... She will never forget that kind of warmth. So...... She transferred all her gratitude to Xu Chuan's mother to Xu Chuan, she was like a sister, like a mother, and like a lover to Xu Chuan. She had a secret, but that secret looked powerful on the outside, but it wasn't like that before.

Along the way, she has accompanied Xu Chuan to endure a lot of hardships, so she cherishes the current Xu Chuan more than anyone else and is satisfied with everything now.

Xu Chuan stared at Su Qing and reached out to hold her tender palm, he didn't dare to say anything to Su Qing before, but as a man, of course Xu Chuan also has his own wishes in his heart, he wants to give his loved ones a rich and comfortable life, and he wants to make his loved ones happy and happy, this little bit of thought is the most ordinary wish.

Before... He was incapable.

Now, he is already the prefect of Dingjiang, and his strength is also sophisticated, which is enough to protect the safety of his lover, of course, he has that confidence and qualification, so Xu Chuan said solemnly: "When I come back, we will get married, okay?" ”

Su Qing was slightly stunned, and a touch of ecstasy seemed to flash in her eyes in an instant, but she suddenly felt that this look was so unreserved that he looked at him, so he quickly recovered his gentleness and tranquility, buried his head and let Xu Chuan hold his hand, and said softly: "Isn't it... Too urgent? Don't be in such a hurry. ”

Xu Chuan smiled: "Not in a hurry? Then wait another three or five years! ”

"Huh?"

Su Qing raised her head suddenly. happened to meet Xu Chuan's narrow eyes. Without waiting for her to be annoyed, Xu Chuan had already reached out to wrap around her slender waist and kissed the corner of her slightly opened lips.

"Hmm..."

Su Qing reacted, it was not the first time that the two of them had been so affectionate, a couple in love... In addition, she has always been demanding from Xu Chuan, of course, Xu Chuan has already succeeded. So after a little pause, he wrapped his hands around Xu Chuan's neck and responded with a little greenness.

……

Outside Xu's mansion, two white-faced beardless figures were waiting.

"This Governor Xu doesn't know what it has to do with Gonggong Deng, so he actually asked our Jindan Xudan master to welcome him from Zhongzhou in person."

"Who knows."

Both of them are eunuchs working under Gonggong Deng, and as the general manager of the interior, it is easy for Gonggong Deng to privately transfer some eunuchs who are celebrants, and these subordinates dare not disobey.

Jin Dan Xudan, that is, the level of Mrs. Hongyu Cuiluo, is very suitable for driving a flying boat to run errands.

Xu Chuan also received a summons from Gonggong Deng, and he already had some music in his heart. At this moment, he walked up to the two of them and waved to Su Qing and the others who were standing at the door of the mansion.

"Wait until I get back."

He turned and walked away.

"My lord just went to the banquet, why is he so solemn, and he said that he would wait for him to come back?" Xie Yu stood beside Su Qing, his face full of doubts.

The smile on Su Qing's face was sweet, and there was a different kind of expectation and brilliance in her water-cutting eyes.

……

Out of Fucheng, the two fathers-in-law took out the flying boat and flew into the sky, heading towards Zhongzhou. And these two fathers-in-law were also very withdrawn, neither asking Xu Chuan anything nor saying anything. Xu Chuanle's purity, sitting on the flying boat silently realized.

"I have now absorbed and refined all of the Purple Void True Dragon Dragon Balls, and I have also absorbed and refined more than three hundred lower-grade spirit stones, but there is still no sign of True Qi Gathering Yuan and Condensing Yuan as Dan. The method of cultivating in the past to become a golden pill is also not applicable. Xu Chuan said secretly in his heart.

Commander Xiong has a saying that is right, the more domineering the innate true qi, the more difficult it is to become a golden pill, "Dragon Yuan Gong" is an extremely domineering exercise, and then integrating the true qi of Xu Chuan's three innate martial arts practitioners, plus the bonus of the purple void true dragon dragon qi, Xu Chuan's current innate skill can be said to be overbearing to the extreme!

This situation has an advantage, his innate true qi is comparable to that of ordinary Jindan Zhenyuan, and his domineering is even worse!

The disadvantage is that it is extremely difficult and extremely dangerous to become a Jindan!

Drink and peck.

However, Xu Chuan glanced at his nearly five thousand luck, so much luck, he has come to this point, it is a shackle, and it is also an opportunity.

The stronger the true qi, the stronger the Jin Dan condensed in the future!

Fear?

Xu Chuan didn't have any confidence in his heart at all, only indomitable self-confidence. It's just that his current spirit stones are indeed a little tight, relying on the innate list of three hundred low-grade spirit stones a year? It's just enough to plug between your teeth. The imperial order chosen by the military guards has not been decided, and the way of this spirit stone really has to be thought about.

The speed of the flying boat is extremely fast, and in less than half a day, it has crossed several states to Zhongzhou.

"Governor Xu, we are coming, and there is the capital of Great Xia in front of us." A voice sounded beside him.

Xu Chuan opened his eyes, and the two fathers-in-law had a look of pride on their faces, working in the imperial city, and being a person in the imperial city, of course, they were proud of it.

"Summer Capital City." Xu Chuan looked ahead, and also looked forward to it, the nineteen states of Great Xia, and the summer capital of Zhongzhou are the core of the core, and he has not been to such a place yet.

The flying boat passed through a cloud and mist, and a huge city appeared in front of it, and the noon sun shone brilliantly on the entire city. It's more like a world!

Yes, this is a noble, glorious, and shocking world!

The magnificent and domineering, towering city wall, winding without end, within the city wall is more than a thousand main roads, each road is like a rushing river! Among them, there are a number of quaint mansions, large and small, staggered, before arriving in front of you, there is an ancient atmosphere rushing to the face.

At the height of Xu Chuan, you can clearly see the majestic and shocking palace in the center of the city, and above the palace is a huge bright spirit stone like a small sun!

It exudes seven-colored light, and on the four sides of the core and largest palace, the rolling palace group is even more faintly like forming some kind of formation, overlooking the past, self-contained, exuding endless might!

"Artistic conception..."Xu Chuan was shocked.

The entire summer capital city, the entire palace, contains a huge artistic conception that is dormant, containing but not developing, and an outbreak, that is, destroying the world and destroying the earth!

His divine consciousness was released, and in the observation of his divine sense, the entire Xia Capital City was like a huge energy body, and a slight tremor was not something that life could withstand!

What a summer capital.

"I've been to the summer capital before, but I've never seen it like this... Really..."The Snow Mountain Swordsman was also shocked.

Soul Li said calmly, he once drove a flying boat. This kind of scenery has naturally been seen.

The two fathers-in-law were very satisfied to see the shock in Xu Chuan's eyes, in fact, they lived in the summer capital city when they were weak, and they didn't feel shocked, until they cultivated the golden pill, they could fly in the sky, and drive the flying boat to look down from a height of 10,000 meters, it would be shocking!

Of course, they can only be overlooked from afar, and as soon as they get closer, they are about to land.

The flying boat quickly fell.

Falling a few miles away from the city gate, a few people walked away, the capital is so huge, and the city gate is more than 10,000! Xu Chuan was led by two fathers-in-law to a city gate.

From the top to see the summer capital city majestic, the closer it is, the landscape is pleasant, this city gate is closer to the huge lake 'Baihua Lake', usually come here to play a lot of people, there are more small bridges and flowing water, the gallery in the lake, the scenery is beautiful.

"Governor Xu!"

Before entering the city gate, there was a tall figure in the distance, wearing a dark green robe, with a peaceful face, striding forward, and chanting cordially from afar. A lot of people have come to see it.

"Your Excellency."

"Uncle Deng."

The two fathers-in-law saluted from afar, and the eunuchs were outside, and they subconsciously did not call their fathers-in-law, and they all used the pronouns of "grandfather", "uncle" and "adult".

"Mr. Deng." Xu Chuan now also knows that the father-in-law Deng who passed the decree turned out to be the head of the inner house, and his status was quite high, and he was able to come to this Xia Yuan banquet this time, which was also his contribution, so he immediately bowed.

But Gonggong Deng had already walked up to him and enthusiastically held his arms: "Governor Xu and our family are polite, let's go, our family has set up a banquet in the "Tianjiao Building", specially for the Xu Governor's Mansion to catch the wind." ”

Gonggong Deng took Xu Chuan's arm and entered the summer capital city, the two fathers-in-law followed behind the buttocks, and felt more and more that this Xu prefect was amazing, Deng Gonggong didn't say that he was arrogant on a fair day, and he was also the head of the inner house, how could he treat a small prefect like this, and he couldn't help but be much more humble.

Tianjiao Building is one of the best restaurants in the summer capital, and the lowest consumption in it is 10,000 taels of silver.

The restaurant is divided into nine floors, the higher the floor, the more expensive, like the six floors up, are booked out early.

On the seventh floor, there are two halls, and in this hall there is a group of richly dressed young people drinking and talking and laughing with each other.

"Yun Tengying, you are also too anxious, why do you have to break through the Jindan early, stay on the Great Xia Innate List for one more day, and not have one more day of spirit stones?" A rugged young man in a pale gold robe laughed.
