Chapter 761 Entering the Mansion
"In that case, let's just get on with our journey." Chu Zhiyuan said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Yuzhen said hurriedly.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "If I don't hurry on, it would be like I want to harm Your Highness."

"My Lord..." Li Yuzhen said hurriedly, "Why would I think so!"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "You are just too impatient. You are born to be a hard worker."

He was still very satisfied with Li Yuzhen.

He is loyal but not pedantic, and can look at things and people objectively and fairly.

Such a temperament is really rare. It is not easy to achieve any one of these three points, but she can combine all three in one.

Chu Zhiyuan did not need to use his own strength, it was all Yuecan Shuangyi who did the power, which was more comfortable and faster than riding a horse.

Li Yuzhen was fine, but Fu Zheng was having a hard time. Although they were both venerables, there were still some differences between them.

But she gritted her teeth and held on without saying a word.

Chu Zhiyuan also pretended not to see it.

She needs to be tempered. She can't withstand the wind and rain if she grows up in a greenhouse.

……

The Phoenix Imperial City stands tall and majestic under the setting sun. It is vast and majestic. The sunset glows on the walls of the imperial city with a layer of gold, making it look even more majestic.

But most of the pedestrians passing by ignore this visual impact.

Turn a blind eye.

Chu Zhiyuan and the two women appeared at the city gate and looked at the city wall.

After such a long period of continuous speed march, the three of them did not look in a bad state, just a little weathered.

Each blue brick is painted with a phoenix pattern, hidden by the vicissitudes of time.

Chu Zhiyuan, however, could see through these traces of time and see their original appearance.

When these patterns are combined together, they actually form a vivid phoenix.

It seems like it is ready to take off at any time.

Chu Zhiyuan was shocked.

He felt an inexplicable power through these patterns.

There is no demon-repelling talisman at the city gate like the one at the gate of Yujing Imperial City.

Is Phoenix Imperial City so arrogant?

He speculated that this was not an overreaction, and that the power naturally emanating from the Phoenix Imperial City should be repelling the demon race.

The power it exudes is similar to that of the demon-repelling talisman, but even more powerful.

Is this the foundation of the Phoenix Dynasty?

They followed the crowd in line and walked inside. The soldiers in Mingguang armor on both sides just glanced at them coldly, without stopping them or questioning them.

They entered the city smoothly.

The prosperity and noise combined together, rushing towards them and shocking them.

Chu Zhiyuan first suppressed his super sense and did not use it to avoid alerting other forces.

The Phoenix Imperial City is different from the Jade View Imperial City. It has a deeper foundation and greater power.

Who knows if there are any old monsters? There are some strange people who can discover super-sensory existence.

It is better to be cautious.

Walking along the street, lanterns have been lit in the city and pedestrians on the street are walking slowly with relaxed expressions.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him with envy.

It seems that the people in this imperial city live a good life.

Warriors passed by from time to time, with swords and knives on their waists, looking extraordinary and vigorous like dragons.

Chu Zhiyuan took a few looks and found that although their cultivation was not very strong, their aura was powerful and their martial arts were obviously extremely strong.

This is exactly the opposite of the situation in the Yujing Dynasty.

The martial arts masters of the Yujing Dynasty often have a higher realm but weaker martial arts skills.

People have limited energy, so they need to focus on something, either investing most of their energy into the realm of martial arts or into martial arts skills.

Obviously, the warriors of the Yujing Dynasty are more inclined to the realm of cultivation, while the warriors of the Phoenix Dynasty are more inclined to martial arts.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

He didn't think which one was better. The former, the Yujing Dynasty, had a more gentle atmosphere, while the latter, the Fenghuang Dynasty, advocated more fighting.

Chu Zhiyuan and Fu Zheng followed Li Yuzhen forward and then turned west.

As we go west, the environment changes dramatically.

The streets became smoother and cleaner, the population became less dense, and strings of lanterns were lit up, illuminating the avenues.

Most of the pedestrians passing by were surrounded by guards, and they were either rich or noble.

Chu Zhiyuan recalled the information he had seen: Phoenix Imperial City was noble in the west, rich in the east, the north was the imperial city, and the south was for ordinary people.

They came in from the South Gate, which was not only not prosperous, but also the least prosperous place.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

The Phoenix Imperial City and the Yujing Imperial City are indeed not on the same level.

The footsteps became clearer and the surroundings became quieter.

Wherever he passed, there were only cold guards staring at him, and it felt like they were about to pounce on him at any time. The further west he went, the fewer people there were, and the larger the mansions became.

Some prefectures even occupied an entire street.

This was the Twelve Princesses' Mansion where they arrived.

There is only this princess's mansion on the entire street, and no other residents.

Chu Zhiyuan was secretly shocked.

She is indeed the most favored princess.

Even the princes did not have such treatment. They usually only had one street, two prefectures, or even three or four prefectures.

As soon as they stepped into the street, guards came forward to greet them.

Li Yuzhen showed a silver badge and was released.

When they arrived outside the three-story glazed gate with flying eaves, they handed over a golden waist badge.

The two waist plates are different colors and shapes, and the latter looks more delicate.

She originally thought she could get in and calmly glanced at the guards around her.

Two teams of guards were patrolling each other. Each team had nine people, wearing silver armor that only showed their faces. They had long swords on their waists and looked stern.

As he walked, silver light flashed, but his footsteps were silent.

They all had a terrifying aura and were obviously masters who had experienced life-and-death battles.

The six guards guarding the gate formed two rows and looked at the three of them vigilantly.

The middle-aged guard in charge glanced at the badge, looked at her a few times, and shook his head.

Li Yuzhen was startled and asked hurriedly, "Is it possible that I cannot enter even though I have this inner court badge?"

"Please forgive me, young lady. It is an extraordinary period and outsiders are not allowed to enter the mansion." The middle-aged guard looked solemn, respectful but arrogant.

Li Yuzhen frowned slightly and said, "Then let Li Yuchun come out to pick me up."

"Butler Li?" The middle-aged guard was startled.

Li Yuzhen said: "Is this okay? Give her this badge, and she will know who I am."

"...Wait a moment." The middle-aged guard went in with a golden badge.

Chu Zhiyuan and Fu Zheng said nothing.

They all knew that Li Yuchun was the twelfth princess's personal maid and the deputy chief of the guards.

Like Li Yuzhen, she grew up with the twelfth princess.

Chu Zhiyuan and Fu Zheng knew the most basic information about the Twelve Princesses' Mansion.

Li Yuzhen turned her head to look at Chu Zhiyuan and smiled embarrassedly.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "It's a good thing to be on high alert."

Li Yuzhen nodded slightly.

Amid the vigilance of many guards, footsteps were heard and a young woman came out lightly.

She has a graceful and slender figure, a beautiful face, and is dressed in a white robe. She appears gracefully and with a faint fragrance.

Seeing her appear, Li Yuzhen moved her lips and whispered in secret.

Li Yuchun was startled, then nodded gently: "Master Yan, I'll take him in."

The middle-aged guard clasped his fists and said, "Please come in, Chief Li."

Li Yuchun glanced at Chu Zhiyuan, then turned lightly and entered the side door.

Li Yuzhen did not reveal Chu Zhiyuan's identity and followed him in.

Chu Zhiyuan and Fu Zheng also followed in.

After entering the princess's mansion and passing the screen wall, you will see the spacious front hall.

Clusters of flowers and a green tree are arranged lightly but not sparsely, elegantly and harmoniously.

Chu Zhiyuan was quickly led into a small courtyard, leaving Fu Zheng behind.

Li Yuzhen left with Li Yuchun.

Chu Zhiyuan sat down in the small pavilion and looked around.

This is an elegant and beautiful courtyard.

Green bamboos rustle at the foot of the wall, and there is a flower bed next to the bamboo forest.

Dozens of flowers bloomed, emitting various floral scents, floating in the courtyard.

Chu Zhiyuan took a sip of tea, looking relaxed.

Fu Zheng walked around, looking around, unable to sit still for a moment.

She finally returned to the pavilion: "Your Highness, what shall we do next?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "The guest should follow the host's wishes, let's see what's going on."

Fu Zheng's makeup remained unchanged, and she frowned slightly: "Can Your Highness save the twelfth princess?"

She thought about it and thought that this could only be the reason, and it should not be the proton identity or anything else.

"Who knows?" Chu Zhiyuan looked relaxed.

When you are in this situation, all you can do is practice well, and the rest is to wait and see.
