The carriage staggered and picked up dust all the way, and finally arrived at the foot of the most majestic city of the Liang Kingdom in the evening.

"Seven countries have eight cities, the lion and tiger are entrenched in the mountains, and the dragon lies at the source of the blue sea, which is the capital of the Liang country - the lion and tiger city. Luo Shanhe jumped out of the car and dragged the package with great difficulty.

The luggage, which was about the size of his own body, was equipped with wooden wheels at the bottom, and it was easy to push on the smooth stone road in front of the city gate.

The mission of this trip has been learned on the way, and it is to participate in an innocuous event on behalf of the Takenama faction.

The court temple is no better than the country house, there are complicated rules everywhere, and the official selection event held every year needs to be sent by Takema as a judge.

The origin of the Lion Tiger City can be traced back to the establishment of the Liang Kingdom thousands of years ago, when the founding emperor rode a handsome and incomparable lion and tiger beast from the west through the mountains and came here.

The walls are more than 10 meters high and more than 15 meters thick, and the outer layer is watered with metal, which shines in the evening sun.

The servants of the official family, who had been waiting for a long time, were waiting at the place outside the city gate, and when they saw the arrival of the two, the servants hurriedly took over the luggage.

Along the way of the Luoshan River, I saw the prosperous scene of the street side market, and the face was moved, which was very different from the environment around the lonely mountain, and the number of residents in the imperial city was far beyond that of ordinary cities.

The vendors of the merchants sat like sand at the bottom of the river, crowded on both sides of the not very spacious streets, and under the leadership of the official servants, they stumbled and squeezed out a way into the official road.

The spacious official road is naturally another scene: far from the noise of the market, the official road is so quiet that three or two finches stop and make a chattering sound.

The flat road is enough for two horse-drawn carriages to gallop, and I don't know how much real money is spent, and the animals carved on the stone piers along the road are vividly displayed.

Although he is full of poetry and books, and he is full of economy, Luo Shanhe is also a lonely mountain boy who has never seen the world, and it is inevitable that he will lose his mind.

At this time, there are basically no pedestrians on the official road, and generally the official road in the imperial city is mostly in the early morning to the morning period, and the officials returning from the imperial court to deal with government affairs will meet on this road.

The court did not dare to communicate too much privately, and many times it was inconvenient for officials to contact each other, so this short and short official road became the best choice for exchanging information with each other.

"Elders, it's time to get there. The carriage came to a steady halt in the open space in front of a splendid mansion, and the two men stepped out of the carriage, and the grand butler of the mansion, dressed in a sophisticated gown, made an inviting gesture to let them into the threshold.

"Elder Luo and Elder Meng of the Bamboo Sect, the mansion has already prepared a little wine for hospitality, please move to the middle hall and come with me. ”

"Thank you, thank you, and ask the big butler to lead the way. Luo Shanhe took advantage of the situation to make a concession and took a step to follow.

Although after more than half a day's trek, the white robe on his body is still spotless, which is closely related to the special fabric.

From the main entrance of the mansion, Luoshan River smells the smell of money, and when you come to the middle hall, you can see that there are carved beams and paintings, rockeries and flowing water.

Although it is said that it is a little thin wine, there are still twenty or thirty kinds of dishes on the table, all of which are carefully cooked, including special delicacies from all over the Liang Kingdom, and precious ingredients that are usually difficult to eat.

"Elder Luo, the official selection activity is scheduled for three days later, and the prince is discussing specific matters at the emperor's bedroom at this time. The butler spoke slowly, his voice magnetic, making his words more convincing.

"Then let's visit tomorrow, Elder Meng, we should go. Luo Shanhe stood up, took out two wrapped ink stones from the luggage leaning against the door, and put them on the dining table.

"This is a gift I only bring on behalf of the school, please be sure to pass it on to the fourth prince. Luo Shanhe said, and couldn't help but drag Meng Changge out of the threshold.

The big butler sent out the door with a smile on his face, and this smile disappeared completely after Luo Shanhe's figure melted into the darkness.

The two ink stones were taken away by the servants, along with the scraps piled up on the dining table. These leftover dishes, enough to feed the inhabitants of the city for a few days, are now reduced to the dregs that even the dogs of the mansion do not want to swallow.

Meng Changge, who was forcibly dragged away, was sulky, and she didn't interject in the conversation at the dinner table, and now she was directly dragged away, and she hasn't tasted those dishes carefully.

There is no such treatment on Sanjian Mountain, the fourth prince is now in the court, almost like the shadow of the emperor, and he often stays in the palace when he encounters things.

This kind of noble status is incomparable, and it is also in the limelight in the Imperial City for a while, and it is very good to be able to live here and wait for the event to be held, in the opinion of Meng Changge.

As soon as he walked out of the prince's mansion, a dark shadow came out of the dark passage, and he saw the other party's face clearly when he walked in.

"Two elders, the eldest prince is invited. This servant from the Great Prince's family bowed deeply respectfully.

"Seeing that it's getting late, I still can't bear to disturb the eldest prince, please transfer these two pieces of ink stone to the eldest prince for me, and I will personally visit him one day." Luo Shanhe also bowed deeply, and the amount of bending down was no smaller than that of the other party.

The servant wanted to say more, but he was blocked back by two heavy ink stones.

Within a short hundred meters from the official road to the nearest Fang City, he actually encountered more than ten servants hiding in the shadows, and each of them appeared in front of him, Luo Shanhe would respond with the same words, and the final result was to send out two ink stones.

When I arrived at the inn, my heavy bags were empty, and I gave them away as gifts.

The sullenness in Meng Changge's heart had been thrown on the official road, and she felt that the distance of 100 meters was more tiring than fighting dozens of times the enemy.

Looking at Luo Shanhe's iconic smile and natural movements, it seemed so natural in front of the servants who represented the forces behind him.

And the most surprising thing is that these ink stones, as big as bricks used in construction, are willing to bring them with them.

Without these gifts, it would have been obvious that it would have been difficult to escape the repeated invitations of the servants.

There was only one room in the room, it was a single bed, Meng Changge followed upstairs with some vigilance, and soon after the store outside the door sent another bedding, which was spread on the ground by Luoshanhe.

"You sleep in the bed, I sleep in the ground. With such politeness, Luo Shanhe felt mentally exhausted and needed to rest.

Meng Changge reluctantly began to ask, "Why don't you stay with the fourth prince, come to the inn and sleep on this kind of bed?"

The girl had never spent the night in a room that smelled faintly of rotting wood, and she could not sleep in the first half of the night.

"The bed of the fourth prince, I'm afraid I can't sleep well. Over there, Luoshanhe lay flat and soon fell into a deep sleep.
