The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

The Game Behind Chapter 124
I have to say that Li Muyun really underestimated the bottom line of the nobles of the Tang Dynasty this time. In the previous life, those with status would rarely carry out such an assassination if they didn't want to die, because every circle has its own rules. You can kill others for money today, and others will kill you for money.

What's more, everyone is on the scene, because if you make a big move with a little money, you will easily be rejected by the people in the circle, and you will become an outlier. Let alone doing business, I'm afraid no one will even listen to your words.

Li Muyun misjudged the situation, thinking that Tang Xungui would be like the people of the era he was familiar with, so he was negligent and was seriously injured.

Fortunately, he was lucky, Su Wanqing came in time, so he didn't hand over his life to those generals who only hacked with a broken knife.

Sitting on the carriage to Chang'an, Li Muyun recalled his various experiences in the past few days, and planned his future behavior standards and ways of doing things.

"Muyun, what are you going to do when you go to Chang'an this time?" The three fat guys sat opposite Li Muyun and broke the silence.

"What else can I do? Kill people to pay for their lives, debts to pay back money! Han Qiang committed a crime in our county, so naturally we have to take him back for questioning." Li Muyun, who was in a daze, came back to his senses, and said in an indifferent tone .

"You, a little county magistrate, went to the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Punishment to arrest his son, what do you think is the possibility of success?" The third fat man looked at Li Muyun with a very strange look.

This is not the first time he has asked this question, but as he gets closer to Chang'an, he still wants to make sure.

"I told you that we can definitely take him back. Even if that old ghost takes revenge, we can only wait for us to go back. You don't have to worry about this at all." Li Muyun looked at the fat man helplessly, Sighed.

If it wasn't for the fact that the injuries on his body were not healed, Li Muyun would rather climb to Chang'an by himself than take this long-winded guy with him.

Sure enough, the third fat man did not stop, and continued to ask Li Muyun: "How can you guarantee that the old lamp will not attack you in Chang'an City? He dared to attack you in Shanyin County, let alone Chang'an."

"I don't know, life and death are up to fate, wealth is up to heaven!" Li Muyun really didn't want to explain all this to the fat man, after casually perfunctory him, he simply closed his eyes and fell asleep, letting the fat man ignore him.

……

Shuozhou is more than [-] miles away from Chang'an, and the speed of the carriage is about [-] miles in one day, so it took Li Muyun and his party a full twelve days from Shanyin County to Chang'an.

When they arrived in Chang'an, it was already after the Lantern Festival, and they missed the famous Lantern Festival, and not only that, they arrived at Chang'an just in time for the evening.

Looking at the closed city gate, Li Muyun was embarrassed.

No matter in the past or in the future, travel restrictions seem to have always existed, but it was changed from restricting numbers during the day to prohibiting entering the city at night. Although this was done for safety, the result was undeniably the same. Their business was locked up Can't get in from outside.

But fortunately, the weather in Chang'an had started to turn warm at this time. Compared with Shuozhou, the temperature at night was similar to that during the day, so Li Muyun and the others squatted at the gate of the city for half the night.

……

As the sun rose, the number of people waiting to enter the city gate gradually increased.

With the harsh friction of the door shaft, the closed city gate slowly opened.

Then, Li Muyun saw two rows of armored soldiers striding out of the city, similar to the guards of honor in later generations. The people on both sides began to move.

Under such circumstances, Li Muyun and his party followed the flow of people into this city that he had fantasized about countless times.

……

Later someone asked Li Muyun what it was like to enter Chang'an for the first time.

Li Muyun didn't comment on this, but just shook his head lightly.

For a person who has memories of countless metropolises in later generations, Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was actually not that big, and what Li Muyun could see was just a kind of sentiment, and this kind of sentiment gradually faded with the passage of time.

And the most important thing is, this shit is not in Chang'an, I really don't know that I am a small official.

In Shanyin County, Li Muyun is completely like the Tu Emperor, but in Chang'an, there are seven ranks of guards at a city gate, and the director of the market management office (decree of the eastern and western cities) is actually a sixth rank official. The order turned out to be of the fifth rank.

Of course, this still refers to a real job, if it is counted as a casual official...

Well, in fact, no matter how he calculates, Li Muyun found that he, as a third grade, would not be able to stand on the stage in Chang'an.

"Hey, stop!"

Just when Li Muyun was thinking about the official in Chang'an City, a rough voice interrupted his train of thought, but when he listened carefully, he found that the voice was somewhat familiar.

Before Li Muyun could figure out who the owner of that voice was, he heard the person say again: "Where did you come from, don't you know if you went the wrong way?"

"My lord, we are from Shuozhou, no, I don't know the rules here..." The driver of the car didn't realize it until this time, and explained repeatedly.

"This is the Royal Road. Since you are foreigners, I will not hold you accountable. I will leave immediately." Although the rough voice was not kind, he was not a bad person. Listen to me The voice that spoke was not from Chang'an, so he didn't go into it, and waved his hand to drive the carriage away from the middle of the road.

Of course, the carriage mentioned here is walking on the imperial road, but it is just that a wheel of the carriage has run over a section of the imperial road in the middle of the road, and it is not really running on it. If that is the case, the people who stopped Li Muyun and his party are probably also It won't be that easy to let them go.

But just as the carriage deviated from the main road, the third fat man who lifted the curtain suddenly called out in surprise: "Cheng Chumo..."

I didn't want the guy blocking the way to be slapped, but he heard the fat man's voice, and immediately looked at the carriage: "Who is it? Who is Lao Tzu?"

Seeing such a situation, Li Muyun naturally didn't want to pretend to be stupid anymore, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and leaned out from inside, cupped his fists and said, "Mr. Cheng!"

Cheng Chumo was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his eyes, and then exclaimed excitedly: "Oh, I'm going, brother-in-law!?"

It is not easy for a person to learn to be good, but it only takes a short time to learn to be bad.

Cheng Chumo, who only stayed in the cottage for a short day, learned a fluent swear word, and when he saw Li Muyun, he spit it out reflexively.
