    It has been more than 200 years since the founding of Daxia. The long-term prosperity of the country and the people has created unprecedented prosperity for it.

    The greatest manifestation of this prosperity is its capital city.

    ??The tall city, the crowded motorcades, the merchants of silk and satin, the plump women in gold and silver, and the sky above the city in the clear sky and the fireworks are blooming.

    There are four hundred states and thousands of cities in the world, all of which are unique.

    People, carriages and horses came and went in and out, and there were well-dressed guards, but no checks were set up. Daxia had a broad mind and all nations came to the court.

    Zhongwu followed the crowd through the city gate, walked skillfully through the streets and alleys, and stopped in front of a house with the simple and unsophisticated word "Li Zhai" hanging on it.

    This is Li Fengan¡¯s private residence in the capital.

    The house looks inconspicuous, but it is not easy to live in the capital, and it costs a lot to buy one in this location.

    Li Fengan had not lived in this house a few times during his lifetime, but it was always clean and tidy and very popular. Even if Li Fengan suddenly opened the door without any news in advance, he could still sit down and take a sip as if he were on Jiannan Road.  Hot tea, lying on a fluffy and soft bed, smelling the customary incense and falling asleep peacefully.

    The layout here is exactly the same as that of the Jiannan Road Governor's Mansion, but it's just a few sizes smaller.

    The fifth grader stood in the hall, holding a pot of tea and drinking it without any image.

    "Top five!" someone came in and shouted.

    Zhongwu almost choked: "Zhonghou, what the hell are you screaming for?"

    The man who came in looked very loyal and held up a letter in his hand: "This is scarier than seeing a ghost. Is this an order from Master Yuan? Is Master Yuan crazy?"

    The fifth grader understood his mood very well, because when Yuanji gave the order, he had the same thought, but he didn't shout it out.

    "This is the eldest lady's order." He put down the teapot.

    Zhonghou swallowed his words. He couldn't help but say that the eldest lady was crazy. His expression turned into worry: "Is the eldest lady okay?"

    What happened?  The eldest lady actually wants to bow her head to Liang Zhen and beg for mercy?  That's the old guy who sent happy words to the Governor's funeral!

    The fifth grader waved her hands calmly: "The eldest lady is very good. Things at home are arranged in an orderly manner. Don't start yelling at the beginning, but continue reading. Did the eldest lady tell us to bow our heads?"

    Zhonghou took a deep breath, sat down and read the letter before exhaling. He only told him to go see Liang Zhen and hand over the letter from the eldest lady. There was no need to do anything else.

    "The old guy's concierge can punch at most ten people. We can punch in with five people." He rubbed his big hands and was eager to try.

    Since we just sent the letter to Liang Zhen, asking to go in and typing it in are the same as long as we go in.

    Of course they chose to fight in.

    "I've long disliked them. Do you know what that old guy did? He melted the gold coffin we gave him and beat it into gold leaves and held flowers. It's so shameless." Zhonghou spat.

    The fifth grader touched his chin and thought for a while: "You have to be smart when you hit me. Don't rush me, old man, and tear up the lady's letter without even reading it."

    Skills were not something he considered. Zhonghou scratched his head and said, "I'll call everyone here and let's discuss it."

    People in the capital are busy and overwhelmed with new things one after another, and new things have become stale.

    There was a rare commotion on the bustling street, and countless people rushed in one direction.

    ¡°Those who knew what was happening and those who didn¡¯t knew what was happening also hurriedly ran after him, but the crowd was driven to both sides like chickens and ducks.

    "What is it?" Those who crowded in the back stood on tiptoe and looked around, seeing five groups of people occupying the wide street.

    These people wear colorful clothes and ride tall horses. The men in front are brave. There are also women on horseback in the team. They wear skirts and power fences. The power fence tulle is not to cover the face, but to make the face more beautiful and looming.  As they walked, the streets were dazzling with golden light, and when they passed by, countless people jumped to the ground with cheers.

    There are pearls and jade pendants scattered on the ground. I don¡¯t know if they are decorations that fell from horses or people.

    "Can I rob it?" The new countryman bit his fingers in fright, "They will come looking for it."

    This is valuable jewelry.

    "How could the Luo family pick up things that fell on the ground?" The people in the capital calmed the country people condescendingly.

    Hearing the word "people of the Luo family", the country people exclaimed: "Is it Concubine Luo?"

    Nowadays, the Luo family is the most prosperous in the Great Xia Dynasty. Luo family women are beautiful, good at singing and dancing, and have unique reputation.She is the favored concubine, and her sisters and brothers are all high-ranking officials in the feudal state. When entering and leaving the palace, the princess must stay out of the way when she sees them.

    "The emperor has left the palace with his concubine again, and the Luo family will accompany him."

    "The emperor has been in the palace for more than half of this year. Will he still go to court?"

    "Prime Minister Choi is here."

    ¡°It¡¯s getting cold here, why don¡¯t you go out to escape the heat?¡±

    "It's not to escape the summer heat, but the imperial concubine's parrot died. The imperial concubine was sad. In order to avoid seeing things and missing birds, the emperor took her to the palace to relax."

    Passers-by talked skillfully about the royal court affairs, and the country people listened intoxicated. The noise on the street here has not stopped, and there is another bustle in the distance.

    "There's a fight!"

    "The bandits broke into the house and robbed it!"

    Fights are not uncommon, but bandit robbery is unprecedented. The four gates of the Imperial City of Daxia are open to the world, but there are no soldiers to maintain order. How can bandits plunder wantonly?

    The people watching the excitement were not afraid of the bandits at all, and they flocked to watch the excitement. When they arrived at a place, the officers and soldiers had already maintained order.

    What was maintained was that the spectators were not allowed to come forward, but the fight in front of the door continued, and the officers and soldiers did not try to dissuade them at all.

    "It can't be controlled. It can't be controlled." Everyone shook their heads, "Private grudges have been going on for more than ten years, and the emperor can't control them."

    What kind of personal grudges can the emperor not care about?

    "This is the home of Governor Liang. Are these people from Jiannan Road? Didn't they fight once? Are they going to fight again this time?"

    "Last time someone from Jiannan Road called us and said it was Old Governor Liang who sent a happy message to Governor Li at his funeral."

    "Then why this time?"

    There are no secrets in the capital, and explanations soon sounded among the onlookers, who watched as dozens of people in front of the door punched in, punched out, and punched in again.

    After fighting again, a big man in disheveled clothes wiped away the blood from his nose and pointed at the opponent with a swollen head and face in front of him.

    "Old man, if you have the guts, just read our lady's reply! Our lady knows the best etiquette. You sent a funeral, and our lady replied to you with a thank-you letter!"

    Although the opponent had a bruise on his nose, a swollen face and a crack in his eye, he showed no sign of weakness and let out a loud laugh: "Are you just writing a letter without a gift? How can you understand etiquette here?"

    The entourage behind him laughed loudly: "Send more gold. I've finished using it and I'm missing you."

    "Grandson, I hope grandpa will take good care of you."

    You come and I curse at my grandfather and your grandson, and those who maintain order here will nod: "That's about it." Then with a wave of their hands, the officers and soldiers who have just arrived to watch the excitement come forward to disperse.

    The two groups dispersed, yelling at each other reluctantly.

    At the feet of the Emperor, enough is enough. Everyone knows this truth. You gave me face, and I have to give you face.

    "Bah grandson."

    "Haha, it was a great beating."

    ¡°I didn¡¯t fight last time, but I tried my best this time.¡±

    Zhonghou, with his hands on his hips, laughed and swaggered with his brothers. The officers and soldiers gave way, and the onlookers also gave way. A black wall blocked the way.

    Zhongwu stopped and looked at the wall warily.

    This is a human wall with fourteen or five men. Although the people retreated to both sides, the street is not wide. This group of people blocked the road by standing still.

    They wore broad hats and black coarse clothes and carried baskets on their backs. They smelled strange, like the smell of cattle and sheep and the smell of grass. Are they businessmen selling livestock or farmers plowing the fields?

    "You, people from Li Fengan on Jiannan Road?" asked the leading man.

    His voice was jumpy and full of curiosity, like a simple countryman who had just entered the city.

    ?????????? But the hair on my hair stood up instantly when I was in the fifth grade.

    He raised his head and saw a pair of deep and quiet eyes under the hat, and a face with pale skin.

    "You, Zhenwu Army?" Zhongwu blurted out in a low voice, and he didn't even realize how he came to the inference.

    ¡°Perhaps it was the hostility revealed by this pale-faced man, or perhaps it was the smell of blood mixed with the smell of these men¡¯s grass, cattle and sheep that finally distinguished them, and their appearance in front of the door of Liang Zhen, the former military governor of Zhenwu.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
