Light Dance Jiajing

The one who received them was Qiu Fu, the mayor of Bansheng City. He had a good relationship with Zhao Quan. In their early years, they worked together in the White Lotus Sect. Later, Qiu Fu was sent to Mongolia, while Zhao Quan continued to stay in the Central Plains. Qiu Fu knew Zhao Quan's ability, so he was very welcome to him. Qiu Fu came out from afar, took Zhao Quan's hand and laughed, and warmly welcomed him into the city. However, Zhao Quan held Qiu Fu and said, "Wait a minute, I'll take you to see someone first." Then he lowered his voice and whispered, "Zixuan also came with me."

Qiu Fu was stunned for a moment before he reacted and asked, "Are you talking about the Young Master?" Zhao Quan nodded. Qiu Fu was surprised and asked, "What is he doing here? Does the Master know?"

Zhao Quan shook his head and said, "The leader probably doesn't know, but he insisted on following me. I can't do anything about it. I've already written to the leader. Now, I can only settle him down first. Sorry, I've caused trouble for Brother Qiu."

Qiu Fu formed his own country in Bansheng City. Although he nominally belonged to the White Lotus Sect, if it weren't for the antidote that the leader took once a year, he would have become independent long ago. Now Zixuan came to his territory, and he didn't want to give people a chance to criticize him for neglecting the young leader, so he hurriedly followed Zhao Quan to meet Zixuan and personally welcomed him into the city. Qiu Fu ordered people to clean up two upper rooms, let Zixuan in and said, "My humble abode is simple, and I cleaned up these two rooms in a hurry. I'm sorry to trouble the young leader and his wife. Do you think you can take a look?" He said casually. He glanced at Ayuan with interest. Qiu Fu had always been lustful. He was stunned at the first sight of Ayuan and thought that this woman was really beautiful. It was a pity that Zixuan's woman could not be touched. He couldn't help feeling jealous, but he saw Ayuan's eyes looking at him. There seemed to be a flash of fire when their eyes met. What a charming pair of eyes. Qiu Fu suddenly felt numb half of his body, but the beauty had lowered her head. Qiu Fu was delighted. He was an old hand in the world of flowers. He could tell at a glance that this woman was a restless one. Haha, as long as she was willing, what could Zixuan do to me?

Zixuan looked at the two rooms, which were spacious and bright, with a flower bed in front of the house. He felt comfortable at the sight. He turned around and said to Qiu Fu, "Thank you for your help. It's very nice here. City Lord, please don't be polite and just call me Zixuan. I'm sorry to bother you this time." Qiu Fu said a few more polite words, arranged for the servants to serve him, and then took his leave.

Meidaizhao is the Khanate where Altan moved in not long ago. All the buildings are brand new. The outline of Meidaizhao City can be seen from a distance. As the distance gets closer, Mei'er can see it clearly. The outer wall of the castle is built with rammed earth and the outer wall is inlaid with stone. The wall is 5.3 meters high, 4 meters wide at the bottom and about 2 meters wide at the top. The city walls in the southeast, northwest and northeast are surrounded by the city walls, with a circumference of more than 11 meters. There are five layers of dragon and phoenix colorful dripping water towers at the corners of the city, which are very gorgeous. There are "horse-faced" piers extending about meters at the four corners, and corner towers are built on the piers. The city gate opens to the south, and there is a tower on the upper part of the gate. It is a two-story building with a cantilevered roof. There is an outer wall made of blue bricks on the city wall, which is also called "crenel". Although the overall wall is not as high and deep as Yanmenguan City, the scale is also impressive.

In Meng'er's impression, Mongolians all live in yurts, so when she entered Meidaizhao, she was surprised. The streets near and far were straight and orderly planned, and the scattered residential buildings were also made of brick walls and rubble. People were busy coming and going, creating a lively scene. Isn't it said that life outside the Great Wall is hard? It doesn't look like that at all.

Walking forward from a distance, you can vaguely see the magnificent palace built against the mountain. It seems that the area is very large, and the flying eaves and brackets are shining under the sunlight. Meng'er looked around again, and Altan simply explained: "The three floors in the southeast are storehouses, and further back is the meeting place." Seeing Meng'er's curiosity, Altan led him to see. After walking for a while, they saw a large house in front of them, which covered a very large area. On the gate hung a plaque that read "Shiqing Kaihua Mansion". After passing the three halls, the second door hung a plaque with "Weizhen Huayi". The courtyard was surrounded by east, west and south wing rooms. Meng'er saw the dragon and phoenix patterns painted on the columns, which were lifelike. She didn't expect that the Mongolians were so particular.

This is still the outer city. The inner city is still a long way to go. Continue forward along the central axis to reach the place where Altan lives, which is the palace seen from afar. This is Altan's palace. Enter the inner city and walk along the central axis. In front is the largest hall in Meidaizhao City. The hall has three eaves, is more than 20 meters wide and nearly 20 meters high. The interior is tall and spacious. Altan said that this is also the important place where Altan gathers leaders and ministers to discuss and deal with affairs. It is more majestic than Shiqing Kaihua Prefecture. Altan said that this palace is also called the Nine-pillar Palace. Mei'er was startled. The Yi people regard the number nine as the most respected. The Nine-pillar Palace refers to the emperor's palace. Altan's ambition is obvious. Mei'er thinks that this person will become a great threat to the Ming Dynasty.
