Chapter 591 Unexpected Encounter
After the "morning exercise", Su Xian took another hot bath and felt refreshed. Every pore seemed to be breathing, and the fatigue was swept away.

Yan Dashan, Lin Chuan and others also got up one after another. After everyone had breakfast, when they walked out of the inn, they happened to meet someone picking up the bride, and there was a lot of excitement with the playing of gongs and drums.

Su Xian and the others retreated to the side of the street, waiting for the team to pick up the bride to pass by, but they did not come back to their senses. The deafening sense of joy was nothing short of deafening to them.

After a long time.

Liu Huixiang just asked in a low voice: "Husband, do we want to set off for the divine capital immediately?"

Su Xian thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's not in a hurry. There are many places of interest here. How about we visit and travel at the same time?"

This move was approved by everyone.

So they set off from Yanshi to Shendu, visiting many famous monuments along the way, leaving their footprints.

After wandering all the way, coupled with the "joyfulness" they got in the morning, everyone's mentality gradually changed and they were no longer immersed in yesterday's sadness.

Life is always looking forward.

Living in the past does nothing but cause trouble.

By dusk in the afternoon, they happened to reach a small town dozens of miles east of Shendu City.

Su Xian decided to rest here for one night and officially enter the Shendu City tomorrow.

Silent all night.

The next day.

Su Xian and Liu Huixiang boarded the carriage, escorted by Yan Dashan, Yang Zhilan and the soldiers, and drove slowly along the official road to their destination——

God City!
Shendu City covers an area of ​​more than fifty square kilometers. In addition to the imperial city, there are [-] squares and three markets, namely "Fengdu City", "Tongyuan City" and "Datong City".

In addition, there are two small lanes, "Beili" and "Nanli", which are the fireworks and willow lanes and are located in the southwest corner of the city.

The streets in the city are criss-crossed, shaded by willows, and densely covered with rivers and canals. Tongji Canal leads directly to the inner city. Luoshui divides the entire city into "South City" and "North City", and water and land transportation are extremely developed.

There is a city gate in the south of the city named "Dingding Gate". When you enter the city, you can see a straight and broad street that leads directly to the imperial city in the north of the city. It is more than 150 meters wide and is called "Heaven Street" by the world.

Tianjie leads directly to the Imperial City.

The Imperial City is located in the northwest corner of the city, and contains small cities such as Taiwei City, Ziwei City, Donggong, Dongcheng, Hanjiacang City, and Yuanbi City.

The entire city only has gates on the north, east, and south sides, and there are no entrances and exits on the entire west side, because the west side of the city is adjacent to the royal forbidden garden-Shanglin Garden.

Shanglinyuan covers a huge area, with a circumference of more than 200 kilometers. It contains the "Shangyang Palace" and various garden buildings, which is spectacular.

……

The distance of tens of miles was not long at all. Su Xian and his party drove slowly along the official road and soon saw the tall and majestic giant city that seemed to have no boundaries.

Really big!
Su Xian couldn't help but be speechless. Yingzhou City and even Youzhou City were nothing compared to Shendu City, and they were not on the same level at all.

In the carriage, Liu Huixiang smiled and explained the history and culture of Shendu City to Su Xian. After all, she grew up here. Although it was difficult for her to leave home when she was a girl, she also knew the entire city very well.

"After finishing the business, I have to trouble my wife to take my husband for a nice stroll in the city, so as to show my friendship as a landlord." Seeing that Su Xian was about to enter the city, he turned back to look at Liu Huixiang and said with a smile.

Although he was smiling, he did not forget the two main goals of this trip -

First, he passed the Queen's final test and successfully joined the inner guard.

Second, find a way to eradicate Zhang Huaiyi.

Both of these things are difficult to handle.

The Queen is the one sitting in that position after all, so it must not be easy to think about it.Zhang Huaiyi won the Queen's trust and favor, and even Princess Lanling was extremely afraid of him.

Difficult.

However, he did not express these concerns externally.

……

They came from far away from the east this time. Logically speaking, they should enter the city through the "Shangchun Gate", "Jianyang Gate" and "Yongtong Gate" in the east of the city, which is faster.

However, in order to see the legendary "Tianjie", Su Xian took a detour to the south of the city, entered through the "Dingding Gate", and went along the Tianjie to the Imperial City.

Princess Lanling's Mansion is located in the imperial city.

"Okay."

Liu Huixiang smiled and agreed, but when she turned her head, the smile on her face slowly disappeared and was replaced by a complicated look.

Shendu, she is back!
Since she was kicked out of the family a few years ago, she has been living on the outside. She once thought that it would be impossible to return to the place where she was born and raised in this life...

Outside the carriage.

Yan Dashan rode a horse and walked in front of the carriage. He looked up at the familiar city wall, feeling filled with emotion and a hint of deep fear in his heart.

The more than 20 concubines in the mansion, once they know that he has returned to the divine capital, they are afraid... that they will eat him alive!

what!
Just thinking about it, Yan Dashan felt chills in his heart, a chill rushed from his spine to his forehead, and he had several cold wars in a row.

Behind the carriage.

Yang Zhilan followed silently on horseback. She looked at the city wall that had been ravaged by hundreds of years of wind and rain, and scenes of the past appeared in front of her eyes, which seemed to be long-lasting memories.

Half a year ago, when she decided to leave Hebei Road and prepare to die alone and silently, she never thought that she would be able to return to the divine capital alive in this life.

……

Compared with the emotions of Su Xian and others, the mood of the accompanying soldiers is so wonderful that it cannot be described in words. As soldiers of Fan Yanghou Mansion, they are about to enter the city!

Hou Suxian of Fanyang County, just for his "method of disrupting the Liao Dynasty", was enough to defeat the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in the capital city. They were really honored to be the soldiers of the Hou Mansion.

However, just when they were immersed in their beautiful fantasy, they were about to enter the city when they were suddenly knocked down by a group of people rushing out from the side.

For a time, people turned their backs.

who? !
How dare you collide with the convoy of Fanyang County Marquis?
Don't you die?

The soldiers were immediately furious. They were the soldiers of the Marquis's Mansion in Fanyang County. They had just entered the city, and before they had time to enjoy the welcoming ceremony of being lined up by the people, they were bumped into first?

The soldiers, who were extremely unhappy, helped up their knocked down companions and looked at the group of uninvited guests with gloomy eyes.

But what almost made them explode was that before they could speak, someone from the other party jumped up first and yelled:

"Where did the savages come from? Are they blind? It's hard to walk on such a wide road..."

"..."

The soldiers were immediately furious, and immediately started a verbal exchange with each other.

Yan Dashan and Yang Zhilan immediately escorted the carriage from front to back. In the carriage, Su Xian gently patted the back of Liu Huixiang's hand and then got out of the car with a frown.

We hadn't even entered the city yet, but to encounter something like this, it really ruined the scenery, and Su Xian felt slightly unhappy.

At the same time, someone in the convoy on the opposite side opened the curtain and stepped out of the car.

The man was tall and tall, handsome and heroic in appearance. He was in his thirties and looked full of energy.

While Su Xian looked at the heroic man, the voices of Yan Dashan and Yang Zhilan rang in his ears. One was surprised and the other calmly said at the same time:

"Zhang Huaiyi?!"
