Xu Panlong asked Qian Xingqi to sit down first, and then sat back in his seat. said calmly: "My father has been planning for a long time about Mr. Qian's affairs, so I'm waiting for good news.", he looked at Master Qian as he spoke, and didn't want to say more.

Qian Xingqi looked at Xu Panlong and nodded gratefully, not noticing Master Qian. Suddenly, I heard Master Qian ask, "Mr. Qian, where do you live now?".

As if hearing a stranger talking, Qian Xingqi woke up in a trance. I didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly turned my head to look at Master Qian, "Live in Wanquan Inn.".

Master Qian let out an 'oh' and quickly reminded him, "That's where people in Shanxi and Shaanxi live, and there are many soldiers, so you have to change places.", as soon as he finished speaking, he shouted to the door: "Deng Xiaoliu!".

Immediately after that, there was a shout outside, "Hey!", the door was suddenly pushed open, and a thirty-five or sixteen-year-old man, dressed plainly, with a smart eye, walked in with a smiling face. He saluted in a crisp voice: "Master Qian! What do you always command?".

Master Qian didn't see it, and said sharply: "You find a good place for Master Qian to live near the Gongyuan, and all the expenses are considered to be the son!", Xu Panlong didn't speak, Master Qian's words naturally counted.

Qian Xiaoliu's eyes squinted, and seeing that Xu Panlong didn't make a sound, he bowed down and nodded, "Okay!" I promise to let Master Qian move over within three days.", Xu Panlong and Master Qian did not doubt it, thinking that they believed that he would do it.

"You take Mr. Qian to look around, and by the way, introduce the matters to be paid attention to, and accompany him throughout the process! Your benefits are indispensable after the fact.".

As soon as Master Qian's words fell, Deng Xiaoliu replied quickly and humbly: "I don't want any benefits, as long as Xu Ergongzi can take care of him on weekdays, I will be grateful!", he kept nodding to Xu Panlong, waiting for his words.

Xu Panlong didn't know what he wanted, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "It depends on how things are done, and I won't treat you badly.", as he spoke, the fan knocked on his left hand a few times, obviously not the same thing, and there was also a look of contempt.

Deng Xiaoliu was so happy that his face was full of joy, "I won't let Xu Ergongzi down!".

Master Qian turned to Qian Xingqi and said, "Gongzi still has something to do, Gongzi Qian, you will take the first step!"

Qian Xingqi hurriedly saluted Xu Panlong, "Young Master Xu! Say goodbye, don't thank you!", after saying goodbye, he left slowly, Deng Xiaoliu also bowed to Xu Panlong and nodded, and left after him.

There are seven gates in the middle capital, and the north side is Yongsheng Gate and Xuanwu Gate from west to east. Due south is the Suzaku Gate, the center of the gate is the central axis of the central capital, a straight Zhengyang Street, leading to the main gate of the Imperial Palace, the Huangji Gate. On the right side of the Suzaku Gate is the Chongwu Gate, and the Xizhi Street leads directly to the Yongsheng Gate, and on the left is the Liwen Gate, and the Dongzhi Street leads directly to the Xuanwu Gate. The east side is Chaoyang Gate, and a Chongyang Street leads directly to the west gate.

There is a street in front of the Huangji Gate called Suning Street, which leads directly to the two main streets of Dongzhi and Xizhi, and you can see the Huangji Gate from afar. Ordinary people can only pass on foot, and only the royal family and nobles and first-class officials can ride horses in cars, otherwise the forbidden army on duty will be arrested and beaten and then sent to Shuntianfu to smelt the crime. The palace takes the center of the Huangji Gate as the central axis, and the first gate is the noon gate, and there is a large square in front of the noon gate, and the ministers are waiting here in the early court. After the noon gate, you can see the emperor, so the noon gate represents the face of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the courtiers petition is in the square in front of the noon gate. There is a Jinshui Bridge after the noon gate, after the two layers of bluestone steps on the Jinshui Bridge, it is the Zhengji Palace, the early dynasty, the great dynasty and the grand ceremonial celebration, the emperor's enthronement and the big wedding are held here, there are many wings on both sides of the Zhengji Hall and two independent small courtyards of more than ten rooms, the east side is called Jingxin Garden, the west side is called Ruyi Xuan, and Ruyi Xuan later became the office of the cabinet yamen. Go further on the gate of the palace city Qianren Gate, enter the Qianren Gate is the emperor's bedroom Qianren Palace, the left is the Chengyan Palace, there is a small door called the first left door in and out of the palace city, not far away is the Jingxin Garden, the right is the Qinzheng Palace, there is a small door called the first right door in and out of the palace city, next to the Ruyi Xuan. Behind is the queen's bedroom Kun'an Palace, on the left is the East Sixth Palace is Chengqian Palace, Duanhua Palace, Shouquan Palace, Yuqing Palace, Chonghe Palace, Changxing Palace. On the right is the West Sixth Palace, which is Yifang Palace, Ruian Palace, Yongchun Palace, Wenqin Palace, Danyang Palace, and Jingzhao Palace. It is the residence of the emperor's concubines, and then the imperial garden. Of course, there are many smaller palaces, there is no need to introduce them one by one, the palace inner garden will be lost when people go in, just know some important ones.

Ruyixuan is further to the right is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there are many craftsmen who have papermakers, framers, folding craftsmen, tailors, etc., these craftsmen enter and exit from the Xihua Gate every day after dawn and before dark, and can not stay in the palace, and can only walk around within the scope of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, otherwise they will be caught and beaten to death, so they know very little about the inner garden of the palace.

To the left of Jingxin Garden is the Hanlin Academy and Wenyuan Pavilion, which is the place where the literati yearn for, gathering the most talented people in the country, where the collection of books is complete, and the scholars are proud to stay here, away from right and wrong to concentrate on learning. There is a Liyi Garden here is the place where the prince takes classes, and there are also the children of the royal family to accompany the study, which is a symbol of honor, once the prince succeeds to the throne, the playmates of the young will be high-ranking officials, but there are only a few people, and there is no chance if people are not clever and misbehave.

There are many palace courtyards on the left and right of the palace city, which are reserved for the young prince to live, firstly, it is inconvenient for the prince to stay in the palace, and secondly, there is no palace to live in yet, and he temporarily lives in these side halls. There are also some palm print eunuchs, the residences of the palace stewards and grandmothers who are favored by the queen and the concubines, there are many rooms here, and some powerful eunuchs and grandmothers will have the upper one, but they do not live often, and live in the courtyard purchased by themselves in the inner city when they are free.

In the northwesternmost corner of the imperial city, Emperor Zhaowu specially built a grand attic for the military generals and heroes of the Shulu War who followed him, named Shulu Pavilion. There are the names and titles of the founding fathers, and the portrait of the founding prince is painted in the attic in the fifteenth year of Zhaowu, with a total of sixteen dukes, thirty-eight marquises, and fifty-four uncles, seventy-six sons, and two hundred and seventeen male names in the attic.

With Deng Xiaoliu's company, Qian Xingqi wanted to see the important places in the inner city. Out of the gate of the Risheng Tea House is Chongyang Street, connecting the west gate and Chaoyang gate. Walk two miles east along Chongyang Street, which is Zhengyang Street. To the north, you can see the imperial city in the middle, and walk three miles to the north is Suning Street, which is the main gate of the imperial city.

When Qian Xingqi stood in the distance of the Huangji Gate and looked into the imperial city through the gate, he was full of reverence and excitement. If you can get into the Zhengji Palace, what a glory it should be, and I lost my mind in reverie for a while, Deng Xiaoliu didn't understand the reader's state of mind, and he was still muttering in his heart.

"Little brother has been in the imperial city?", in fact, Qian Xingqi didn't have much hope, just asked casually.

That knew Deng Xiaoliu snorted lightly, "There are five or six times a year, but I entered from Xihua Gate, and this Huangji Gate is not something that ordinary people can approach.".

Qian Qixing knew very well in his heart that the Huangji Gate could only be entered by hundreds of officials when there were major events in the court, such as the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, the emperor's birthday, the general's expedition, the national funeral, etc., and he could only enter through the four small doors symmetrical on both sides on weekdays. But it is also amazing that a common man can enter the imperial city." Can you tell me?".

Deng Xiaoliu was excited in his heart, and it was also the capital to show off, and he replied arrogantly: "Then talk about it?".

Qian Qixing nodded hurriedly, "Have you ever entered the Zhengji Hall?"

I saw Deng Xiaoliu nod his head suddenly, "Only once, the Zhengji Hall is repaired, and there is a lack of leftovers, which I sent, and the emperor's throne can only be seen from a distance, and I dare not approach. I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will be killed. It's the biggest temple I've ever seen in my life.".

Qian Qixing didn't think it was funny, if he did, he would definitely not dare to mess around, maybe he might not be as good as him." Have you seen anything surprising?".

Deng Xiaoliu didn't feel that his request was excessive, and couldn't help but arouse his great interest." Of course, it is Shulu Pavilion, I always hear people say that it is the place where the official lord yearns for, but it is just dozens of portraits, and some names. But the décor is top notch and I have never seen anything more luxurious.".

Qian Qixing couldn't help but let out an 'oh' when he heard it, Shulu Pavilion had long heard of it, and it was also a place he deeply longed for, but he could only imagine that he couldn't see it in person. And this seems to be ordinary, but people who are just begging for life can see it with their own eyes, and it is not in vain in this life. When can I enter Shulu Pavilion to take a look, but I don't dare to think about it, but I am confident that I can do it, and I must do it.

"The Shulu Pavilion built by the Taizu of this dynasty for following the left and right from birth to death, and the heroes who have repeatedly made military exploits, is it comparable to the world, and it is naturally the benchmark of the world, otherwise who will spend his life is to squeeze himself into the Shulu list.", Qian Qixing was infinitely excited when he said this, and he had reached the point of stiffness all over his body.

But he still said with a smile: "It's not as simple as dozens of portraits, it's sixteen founding princes, thirty-eight founding princes, and I don't know how many are as for the Bozi Baron.", said and looked at Deng Xiaoliu with some ostentatiousness.

"Oh! I didn't expect the master to remember it so clearly, I just took a cursory look.".

"Since the first dynasty of the Hongshi Dynasty, the first-class title has been the fifth, the second-class title has been the third, and the third-class title has been the first, and only the founding princes can be hereditary. The only glory of the title of the future is that the name can enter the Deer Pavilion and receive incense from generation to generation. Except for the founding lord, no one's portrait has ever been on the Shulu Pavilion, and there were still people who opposed it at the beginning, but under the heavy pressure of Emperor Hongshi, they all slowly accepted it. Isn't it a proud capital that the name can stay in Shulu Pavilion. After becoming a habit, I don't say the name into the Shulu Pavilion, but say that I have been on the Shulu list, and it has become a trend to be able to be on the Shulu list in the Yuan Hui Dynasty. People have two sides, yin and yang, and no one can say it clearly.

"So that's the case!", although Deng Xiaoliu was not interested, he did not forget to echo.

"Emperor Hongshi formulated the path of feudal marquis only by military merit, thus putting an end to the path of civil official feudal marquis. Only military attachés have the hope of being a marquis, and today's marquis is even rarer.", Qian Qixing was a little sad between the words.

"If I remember correctly, the last one to squeeze into the deer list was Cao Shoufu, who exhausted all his strength to build the outer city, and he was just an earl. If you don't have military merits, you can't be a marquis, so you can see how difficult it is to be a marquis.", Deng Xiaoliu didn't forget to say what he knew.

"Yes! It's a second-class cultivator, it's not easy! How can we think of it!", a series of sighs, Qian Qixing has not come back to his senses, his eyes are like a fool, and his body trembles.

"Leaning on Cao Shoufu, the lord will definitely be able to be knighted and pay homage to the prime minister, I congratulate you here first! Then you can take care of the villain.", Deng Xiaoliu did not forget to pat the ass, a flattering villain's face.

Qian Xingqi's mind is sober, how can he get carried away because of the other party's words. just smiled proudly and nodded in a long voice, "I can achieve such a good thing, naturally I won't forget you!".

Deng Xiaoliu hurriedly bowed ninety degrees, "Thank you, sir!" In the future, even if I am told, I will spare no effort!", but I thought in my heart, is this possible? This is just your own flattery, and the other party is just an empty check, not counting!

Qian Qixing, who came back to his senses, looked at the depths of the Huangji Gate and let out a long sigh. Happily follow the walls of the imperial city, walk to the easternmost part, and return again. Looking at the forbidden army standing on the city wall all the way, I didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, so I went south along Xizhi Street, and unconsciously came to the vicinity of Baiye Street and Xingye Street.

This is the golden nest of the capital, Deng Xiaoliu specially took him to a tall archway, the decoration is conspicuous, but the people who come and go are very rare." Master! This is the famous Sang Ri Xuan in the capital, it is daytime now, and it is lively at night!".

Qian Qixing couldn't help but let out an 'oh', I don't know if it was perfunctory or not interested at all.

Deng Xiaoliu didn't care what he thought, he continued with great interest, "Gu Yuanyuan, who is one of the five beauties in the capital, and the other four beauties are all high-ranking officials' families, it's rare to see, do you want to see it?"

After the lesson of Risheng Teahouse, Qian Qixing couldn't help but feel palpitations, the consumption inside must be very expensive, and he didn't have much silver on him. Hurriedly waved his hand, "No! Just a brief introduction of the little brother.".

Deng Xiaoliu also concluded in his heart that he was not a rich man, and he was reluctant to pay for silver. It's just that when you go in, you can only stand aside and accompany you, so it's better not to go in." There are four major sales in the capital, and only Sang Rixuan can't help but be jealous of officials, because it is the most high-end place of sound and sex, and he only sells his art and does not sell his body. No matter how rampant the royal family and nobles are, they don't dare to make a mistake, its backstage is too hard.".

Qian Qixing let out an 'oh' and asked in disbelief: "Who has such a deterrent power?".

Deng Xiaoliu pointed to the sky with his right index finger, "I can only mean that it cannot be spoken, master, you can think about it yourself!". Then he said: "Paper Gold Building, Laixian Pavilion and Pianwu Fang are different, it is forbidden for officials to enter, but these years are nothing, if someone deliberately harms you, and falls into the abyss at once, I advise the lord not to take chances.".

"Who are the owners of these three families, do you know?", Qian Qixing is a series of whys.

"I only know that the paper gold building belongs to Song Guogong, and the other two are not sure. It's like selling the world's news, and I don't know who the owner behind it is. In these years, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the capital, who would be stupid enough to be strong, and the disaster will fall on their heads.", Deng Xiaoliu did not hide his secrets, which can be regarded as a warning to Qian Qixing.

Qian Qixing thinks about it, he really can't afford to play here, or stay away from this place.

"In fact, there are two good places in the capital where officials can go at will, do you want to see and see?", Deng Xiaoliu's purpose is to make Qian Qixing happy, and he did not forget to introduce it diligently.

Qian Qixing just looked at him, neither making a sound nor nodding. Deng Xiaoliu has a unique eye for observing people, and said tentatively: "Why don't I take the master to have a look, just know the place, and come back next time.".

This is exactly what Qian Qixing wants, and he nodded and said, "Then go to recognize the door?".

"Okay! I'm walking in front, master, can you keep up?", seeing Qian Qixing nodded, he took a step forward, looking back from time to time, don't get too far away.

First of all, there was a row of eaves steaming hot, and two large curtains were hung on the door, and everyone who came in and out lifted the curtains. From time to time, people come and go, and it's quite lively. Deng Xiaoliu did not forget to introduce, "This is the Leisurely Pavilion, a place for rich people to take a bath. Everyone is waiting for everyone when they go in, and the most basic is back rubbing, as well as massage. If you have a special hobby, you can go to the private room to let the woman massage, you can rub the oil, but you can't mess around, the natural consumption is much more expensive.".

Qian Qixing was not interested in this, and felt that there was no need to spend this unjust money, it was better to make a meal. Deng Xiaoliu seemed to see his thoughts. Lead him to continue to live in front of the walk, soon came to a two-story archway in front of the house, on the words 'full banquet gathering'.

Qian Qixing heard people talk about it in his hometown, and couldn't help but sigh, "It turns out that this is the world-famous banquet, it's really better to see than to hear!"

"That's right! The officials who came to the capital did not gather for a banquet before the whole banquet, which was considered to be in vain. Eating is not only delicious food, but more importantly, people are of high grade.", Deng Xiaoliu's words did not come out, his hands are not wide today, and it will be the same in the future..

Qian Qixing just smiled, he didn't have much silver on him, and he was even more embarrassed when he went in, and said with a stiff expression: "Is it?" It's a pity I didn't bring enough money today, otherwise I'd have to enjoy it.".

"Then wait for next time, I'll take the master to another place to see.", said without waiting for Qian Qixing to respond, and led the way in front.
