Since Chu Qianqiu conquered the soldiers of the Tang family with his face, his reputation has skyrocketed again, and the favor owed by the Fan family is not enough to compensate even if his daughter marries.

And this favor is equal to eating two fish with one fish.

The Fan family sold a favor here, and the Fuwei Dart Bureau sold another on the side.

Even Master Yuanjue had to pat his chest and accept Chu Qianqiu's favor.

After doing all this, there were no more bandits in Lingzhou, and the caravan finally arrived in Shangjing, the capital of the Shenwu Dynasty, without danger.

Yongzhou, Shangjing

The 3,000-year-old imperial capital, I don't know how many ups and downs, magnificent and magnificent, backed by the Holy River, is located in the Central Plains, connecting the north and south.

Even Linghu City, the largest city in Lingzhou, is just a small town compared to it.

If Chu Qianqiu overlooks the earth from the sky, he will find that the entire Shangjing presents a star-shaped shape, with a forest of watchtowers and heavy guards, which looks very similar to the fortress in the previous life, which is a concave polygon.

Successive dynasties were very keen to repair and strengthen the imperial capital, and even the bricks used were specially made, and ordinary warriors used internal strength and brute force may not be able to break it.

However, what is humorous is that this imperial capital has not undergone a baptism of war in the past thousand years.

Whenever the rebels or enemy troops hit Shangjing, then the nobles in Shangjing have already begun to negotiate with the enemy on the terms of surrender.

In the past, when Xiao Taizu raised troops and fought from Yuzhou to Shangjing, Emperor Li had been killed by Ji Nu, and the nobles in Shangjing had no will to resist at all, so they directly opened the city gate and welcomed Wang Shi.

I really don't know what the actual role of this fortress, which is claimed to be the number one fortress in the world, is.

It has not had any effect, at least for the past millennium.

However, after inheriting the foundation of the Jinpeng Dynasty, the Xiao family still spent huge manpower, material resources, and financial resources to build Shangjing more solidly.

Perhaps the Jinpeng Dynasty liked to build large-scale construction projects the most, and Emperor Han, who was ranked second-to-last, inadvertently told the truth.

"The defense of Shangjing was naturally not built for war, but for better surrender."

"If you don't build it stronger, how can you sell it for a good price?"

In short, after the construction of successive dynasties, Shangjing's defense system can be described as an impregnable wall.

Even in the eyes of martial arts masters, you can glimpse a white dragon hovering in the sky of Shangjing, intimidating every rebellious minister and thief, and guarding the tranquility of the imperial capital.

If you count the red-clothed fast, purple-clothed fast, Ouchi masters, etc., making trouble in the imperial capital is indeed no different from looking for death.

Therefore, wealthy merchants from all over the world like to move to the imperial capital, even if every inch of land is expensive here.

"Shangjing, which has been in Beijing for a thousand years, is indeed the state of the emperor."

Chu Qianqiu released his spiritual power, and after entering the city gate, he enjoyed watching this huge city to his heart's content.

"My lord, are we going to the post station, or are we going to the No. 88 pawnshop to find Lord Yao? Or go to the Tiansenkan? ”

Yang Guang also came to Shangjing for the first time, but he still remembered his duties and hurriedly asked Chu Qianqiu about his distance.

First of all, Chu Qianqiu is a court official, so he can live in a post station.

Secondly, the eldest sister has an industry in Shangjing, that is, the No. 88 pawnshop.

In the end, Tianquan Pavilion is an industry purchased by the Yang family in Shangjing, and Yangguang can also entertain Chu Qianqiu here.

"No, let's go to Wanshou Temple and meet the general." Chu Qianqiu said bluntly.

"Yes, sir!"

Shangjing, Wanshou Temple.

One of the branches of the Maha Temple, the strength is comparable to that of the Guangming Temple, and even in a place like Shangjing, where there are many strong people, it still has a decisive influence.

Because to a large extent, Wanshou Temple represents the attitude of Maha Temple.

In order to gain the support of Buddhism, the royal family of the Xiao family naturally did not hesitate to build a large number of buildings on the Wanshou Temple.

Even Yang Guang, who was in Lingzhou, knew a lot, and on the way to Wanshou Temple, he hurriedly talked about the information he had collected.

"My lord, do you know that there are three treasures, Buddha statues, pagodas, and Buddha halls in that Wanshou Temple."

"Oh, the temples all have three treasures, what's so strange about this Wanshou Temple?" Chu Qianqiu asked casually.

"The three treasures of this Wanshou Temple are known as the Buddha statues more than people, the pagoda is higher than the sky, and the Buddha hall is deeper than the sea."

"This ground is full of gold and splendor, and the Buddha is bright."

"It is said that the Amitabha Buddha on the Daxiong Hall is made of pure gold and weighs more than 200,000 catties."

In order to show off the luxury of the Buddha hall, Yang Guang ran the train with his mouth full, and the eyes of the other Li people widened when they heard it, they really had never seen such a large pure gold Buddha statue.

"Okay, Xiaoyang, this is not a good thing to show off."

"Huh?"

Chu Qianqiu and his entourage rode their horses and whips, and after a while, they came to the foot of Wanshou Temple, which was crowded with believers and laymen.

There are so many people like this, riding high-headed horses, and swords with swords are still very rare.

Seeing this, several novices hurriedly stepped forward and asked:

"Amitabha."

"This donor, this is a pure place for Buddhism, I don't know if the donor is here to worship the Buddha or to find someone."

"How about worshipping the Buddha, and how about finding someone?" Chu Qianqiu smiled and asked, he was dissatisfied with the extreme luxury of this Wanshou Temple, but he would not make things difficult for a little novice, that would be too immoral.

"If it is to worship the Buddha, please also ask the donor to dismount, if you are looking for someone, the donor can go up the mountain from the path."

"There are still two roads up the mountain?"

"Amitabha."

"The Dharma has clouds: if there are 84,000 wisdom born from the ordinary, why is that? There are eighty-four thousand dusts for the world. (Note 1)

"If the donor comes to worship the Buddha, it is best to dismount and walk, walk 84,000 steps, the dust is scattered, and wisdom is always present."

"If the donor comes looking for someone, he can ride a horse up the hill from the path, but the path is narrow, not as wide as the avenue."

This little novice looks very good, although he is not as good as his own Sanxiu virtuous brother, he also looks smart and clever, and his eloquence is unhindered, no wonder he was sent by Wanshou Temple to entertain outsiders, and he also hinted in his words that walking up the mountain is to worship the Buddha.

Religion often has a strong sense of ritual, allowing believers to accumulate a wide range of recognition through repeated actions, and eventually solidify into habits.

Chu Qianqiu understood the deep meaning of this approach, smiled, and even applauded the little monk.

"Okay, the little monk said it well."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"There are also stables nearby that can accommodate many horses."

The little novice said with a slight meaning, but he didn't know that his remarks would cause great trouble.

"I'm here to worship the Buddha and I'm looking for someone."

"Dismount en masse!"

"Yes, sir."

Chu Qianqiu's personal guards got down from the horses neatly, and they were full of momentum.

"I wonder who the donor is looking for?"

"I'm the Li battalion guarding Chu Qianqiu, and I'm here to meet the general."

"Ahh

"You, you're ......"

Xiao Shami was stunned, he didn't expect Chu Qianqiu to be the most sensitive identity at all.

"Everyone, follow me step by step, to Wanshou Temple."

Chu Qianqiu sneered, he had already made a plan to make a big deal about the general, and the bigger the trouble, the better.

"The Li battalion garrisoned Chu Qianqiu, and came to meet the general."

This group of warriors who rushed from Lingzhou seemed to be crying out for him between heaven and earth, shouting a word every few steps.

"The Li battalion garrisoned Chu Qianqiu, and came to meet the general."

Yang Guang immediately came to his senses, this was to put pressure on the imperial court.

Spread the word.

So he shouted with Chu Qianqiu.

"The Li battalion garrisoned Chu Qianqiu, and came to meet the general."

Princes of the Imperial Court, do you hear this voice?

The faces of the nobles who came to offer incense changed.

Note 1: From the "Sutra of the Altar of the Six Patriarchs"

There was a lot of delay on the road, which belonged to the precursor rehearsal of the big brawl in Shangjing, and it was written a little slowly, and I officially entered Shangjing today, orz
