Chapter 2 The Imperial City

"Back to the Dragon City Lord, none of us have heard of these two names. After Vice General Li finished questioning the soldiers behind him, he immediately reported it to the city lord of Long Jianhui. "Why don't you wait until I get back to the General's Mansion and ask the soldiers in the city carefully?" Vice General Li asked tentatively.

"No, they'll come back when they've had enough. Maybe they were playful for a while and didn't go to the General's Mansion. The Dragon City Lord waved his hand and said.

"Dragon City Lord, please go to the city. I had been talking just now, and I forgot to invite the city lord into the city first. Vice General Li said embarrassedly.

Immediately, the city lord of Long Jianhui came to the general's mansion under the leadership of Vice General Li.

"Wow! It's so beautiful here!" said Madame Long after visiting the General's Mansion.

"It's a great place to be. It's just that it's time to change the sign outside this gate. The Dragon City Lord said in the dark.

"The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will send someone to do it. Vice General Li said immediately.

"Let's change it to the City Lord's Mansion. The Dragon City Lord continued.

"Yes!" replied to Vice General Li.

Just then, suddenly, a guard soldier ran in.

"Report to the lord of the city, there is a man outside the gate who says that there is a letter to be handed to the lord of the city. The soldier handed over a letter.

The dragon city lord looked at the envelope with the words "Father's personal opening" written on it, and it was still his son's font. So, immediately take it apart and take a look at the contents.

"I'm really angry!" said the Dragon City Lord angrily after reading the letter.

"What's wrong?" asked Lady Long curiously.

"Xuan'er and Ying'er actually secretly ran to the imperial city, and left a message for us not to worry. The Dragon City Lord said angrily, "I'll just say that the two of them didn't have such good intentions this time. said that he wanted to explore the way in advance. In fact, I just want to sneak away by myself. ”

"Forget it, with the kung fu of the two of them, they won't suffer under normal circumstances. Let them go out and learn a long way. Lady Long explained to the two children.

"You've spoiled you!" said the Dragon City Lord, shaking his head helplessly.

......

After more than ten days of travel. Zhu Yuan and Long Xuan, the brothers and sisters, finally arrived in the imperial city.

"Wow! The Imperial City is so big!" Long Ying praised excitedly.

"It's really an imperial city, as rumored. Zhu Yuan also said.

"I've long heard that the Imperial City is very prosperous. When I saw it today, it was true. Long Xuan also said excitedly.

"It's the first time I've been to such a big place. Zhang Dongyue also praised happily.

The Imperial City was the capital of the Ouyang Dynasty. It is divided into the inner city and the outer city, and the outer city is divided into four cities: east, south, west, and north. The size of the inner city alone is larger than that of Longzhou City. The outer city is several times larger than the inner city.

"Wow! That's a lot of people. There is no end to this road, and it is full of people. Long Ying said excitedly.

"Brother Long, we didn't buy more manpower along the way, what are we going to do now?" Zhu Yuan suddenly asked. When Long Xuan asked Zhu Yuan and the others to come to the imperial city with them before, he said that he wanted to make a big career.

"This ...... Brother Zhu smiled. Now that we have arrived in the Imperial City, the first thing we need to do is to understand the situation here. Only then can the next action be formulated. Long Xuan said.

"Let's have fun first, and then learn about the situation in the Imperial City by the way. Long Ying said happily.

"After all, we are mainly here to play in the Imperial City. By the way, I will make some more names and let my father take a good look. Long Ying continued.

"Let's follow what Miss Long Ying said, while playing, we will investigate the situation in the imperial city. Don't delay. Zhu Yuan said casually. The purpose of Zhu Yuan's trip was to hone his mind, and at the same time, he also wanted to find some materials with the attributes of the Five Elements to practice the Five Elements Refining Dafa by the way. Since they met the Long Xuan brothers and sisters in the tavern, they just followed their fate. Zhu Yuan wouldn't mind if he could make a name for himself.

"Yes, I heard that the inner city is the most prosperous place in the entire imperial city. There's definitely fun there. Let's go there!" Long Ying suggested. Long Ying originally thought that everyone would not agree, but she didn't expect Zhu Yuan to agree directly. This made her view of Zhu Yuan change a lot.

"The inner city is full of rich and noble families. Nature is the most prosperous place in the entire imperial city. But the inner city is not something that anyone can enter if they want to. Long Xuan said, "The four cities in the outer city are also very prosperous, so we can have a good time in the outer city first." Find a way to enter the inner city later. Long Xuan continued.

"It's Brother Yilong's. Let's take a good look around the outer city first. Wait until you have a certain foundation in the future, and then find a way to enter the inner city. Zhang Dongyue said at this time.

"I've heard that there is a very famous Red Street in the North Side. Tsk, it's full of beautiful women. It is said that if a man has not been to Red Street when he comes to the Imperial City, he is not considered to have been to the Imperial City. Long Xuan's face was flushed with peach blossoms.

"I'm a brothel, a brothel is a brothel. What else to say about the Red Street. Brother, if you dare to go, I will go back and tell my father immediately. Long Ying said with disgust.

At first, Zhu Yuan and Zhang Dongyue didn't understand what street they were all about beauties. Hearing Long Ying say this, he immediately understood. No wonder Long Ying's reaction was so big.

"I just want to take Brother Zhu and Brother Zhang to have a good time......" Long Xuan weakly explained.

"That's not going to work either. You can't spoil people. Long Ying didn't give her brother any face, and retorted directly.

"Alright. Can't I not go if I don't go?" Long Xuan didn't want his father to know that he was going to a brothel by himself, so he had to compromise.

"That's pretty much it. Long Ying rolled her eyes and said, "Hey, where are we going next?" Long Ying then asked.

Suddenly, a dirty little girl bumped into Long Ying who was walking in front of her.

"I said what's the matter with you?" Long Ying said in annoyance, as she turned to look at the little girl who had bumped into her.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" the little girl looked at Long Ying pitifully and apologized.

"Forget it, let's go! Long Ying said unmindfully, and kindly reminded the little girl.

"Sister Xie Lu, Sister Xie!" the little girl screamed sweetly, and then ran away.

"Hey, wait a minute. Zhu Yuan immediately stopped the little girl, seeing that the little girl was so pitiful, he suddenly thought of the two sisters Lan'er and Ting'er, who had been picked up by his mother before. Later, the two sisters sacrificed for themselves, and Zhu Yuan couldn't let go of it in his heart. I feel very guilty. So I wanted to give the little girl some money so that she could live a better life.

But the little girl didn't seem to hear it. Ran away as fast as he could.

At this time, Long Ying touched the money bag on her waist and found that the money bag on her body was gone.

"Ah! my purse is gone. Long Ying suddenly exclaimed.

"It must have been the little girl who stole it, go after it. Long Xuan suddenly came to his senses and said loudly.

So, the four of them chased in the direction where the little girl ran away. After all, there are many people in the Imperial City, and it is difficult to run faster. The little girl is different, she is small, and she can get through the gap if there is a gap. The four of them were thrown away by the little girl.

The four of them could only watch the little girl disappear from their sight little by little, and there was nothing they could do.

"Forget it, let's take it as a long memory! Long Xuan comforted his sister.

"Don't let me meet you again, next time I see you, I have to teach you a good lesson. Long Ying said viciously.

"I've been running for most of the day, and I'm hungry. Why don't we go eat? Long Ying proposed. She wouldn't care about the little money she lost. Her money bag was only a part of the money, and she had a lot of money in her baggage. Besides, there are many more of his brother's.

Soon, the group of four found a tavern and sat down. Get ready for a feast.

When they arrived at the tavern, Zhu Yuan and the four of them ordered a table of dishes and began to eat.

"Have you heard? The emperor is going to choose a horse for the little princess. At this time, a diner next to him said.

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, a relative of mine works as a guard at the palace. He heard it by chance. This can still be fake. ”

"Even if that's the case, it's none of your business. You think you're going to be a colt?"

"I'm still a little close, but maybe I don't know, what flavor Princess Lu Dao likes?"

"You have it, no matter how heavy the princess's taste is, she won't like you like this. ”

"Have you heard about the rules for choosing a colt?" asked the nearby diner curiously.

"I've heard that there are many contests, but the Emperor loves this little princess very much. In the end, he couldn't resist the little princess, and promised that as long as the little princess took a fancy to it, he would be fine. So, in the end, several people will definitely be selected for the little princess to choose. ”

"What, what else do you have that you can't come up with?" joked his friend at the table.

"If I have any ideas, just ask. He waved his hand at the moment of the previous question.

"Brother, don't be backed down by a few words. Maybe the princess likes you like that. ”

"You don't really have an idea, do you? The diner next to him asked the first person to open the conversation.

Listening to the tone of their voice, they should have come here to eat often. We know each other very well.

"What can I think, I don't say this news to be a colt. Rather, the city was completely open during the period when the horses were chosen, and everyone could enter at that time. ”

"What you said is true?"

"It's true!"

Zhu Yuan and the others were just listening curiously, they didn't have the slightest interest in being a colt. But when I suddenly heard that I could enter the imperial city when I chose a horse, I suddenly came to my senses.

"If we can really enter the Imperial City at that time, we can also go and see it. Zhang Dongyue said happily.

"I'm going to have a good look inside. Long Ying also said excitedly.

"I just don't know when it is. Zhu Yuan said suspiciously.

"It should be recently!" Long Xuan guessed.

"Hey, do you know when to choose a colt?"

"It should be two or three months from now! I'm sure there will be news soon. At this time, the diner next to him said. (To be continued......)
