Chapter 482 Liangzhou City
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng quickly arrived at Liangzhou on Longyou Road.
In order not to alert the enemy, Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng got off the flying boat outside Liangzhou City, took out Li Chuanyu's carriage and slowly drove into Liangzhou City. Of course, Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng did not release their spiritual consciousness, but only let Yu Shuheng control all the plants in Liangzhou City to start collecting information.
What can I say about this Prince Ning Yuwentai? Chu Yueyan, a second-generation member of the Su family, can be regarded as a talent sent to the Su family by Prince Ning Yuwentai. If it weren't for Prince Ning's cruelty, forcing Chu Yueyan and others to flee to Sujia Village, the Su family would be missing many talents now.
Therefore, Su Xiaoya really has a hard time describing how she feels about King Ning being taken advantage of. She doesn't want a talent like Chu Yueyan, but chooses to please a practitioner like Situ Haoyue who treats ordinary people like ants and has an evil mind.
Yu Shuheng drove the carriage carrying Su Xiaoya slowly towards the gate of Liangzhou City. Outside the gate there was a long line of people waiting to enter the city.
After observing for a while, Yu Shuheng decisively lined up in the carriage team. This team of carriages should be filled with stewards and servants of the wealthy families in Liangzhou City who were shopping.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya only paid 120 coins as an entrance fee before they were able to enter Liangzhou City.
The entrance fee to Liangzhou City is 10 wen per person, and an additional 100 wen is required for a carriage.
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng suddenly realized why there were so many small stalls lined up along the city wall in front of the city gate.
Some were selling firewood, others were selling fresh vegetables and freshly caught fish...
The reason they chose to do business here was that they could not afford the frighteningly high entrance fee to the city. However, the food, clothing, housing and transportation enjoyed by the wealthy families on a daily basis were all extremely exquisite and refined, and the ingredients must also be absolutely fresh. It is conceivable that in such a place in the city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, how could there be enough land to grow such fresh vegetables?
The entrance fee, which ordinary people think is ridiculously high, is not worth mentioning to these wealthy people. It is precisely because of this that the common people can only set up stalls outside the city.
Su Xiaoya couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It was really difficult to evaluate this King Ning.
However, everyone has their own destiny. Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng secretly observed while waiting in line to enter the city. The purchasing managers did not make things difficult for the vendors. They were probably smart people who knew they could not cut off their masters' source of fresh vegetables.
Although these vendors were unable to enter the city, they were still able to support their families and survive.
Of course, if we want to make a complete change and let these people live and work in peace and contentment, we must change the master of Longyou Road. This matter cannot be changed immediately. We still have to find out the details of King Ning and Situ Haoyue first, and then choose the most stable way to change the world.
Therefore, Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng just quietly paid the entrance fee and entered Liangzhou City.
The architectural style of Liangzhou City is unique, tall and spectacular. The city wall is soaring into the sky, with bluestones interlaced, as if it is an indestructible barrier.
The streets of Liangzhou City are wide and straight, crisscrossing like a chessboard. On both sides are neat rows of pavilions and mansions, which stand there quietly like sleeping giants. These buildings are magnificent, with carved beams and painted rafters, flying eaves and brackets, and every detail shows the prosperity and luxury of Liangzhou City.
In the center of Liangzhou City, there is a magnificent palace standing abruptly. The square palace wall is nearly three meters high, continuing the style of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, but the area is much smaller than that of the Kyoto Imperial Palace.
This palace is like a dazzling jade, exuding the solemnity of the supreme imperial power. This palace is the landmark building of this city - the former Ningwang Mansion, now it has been transformed into Ningwang Palace.
The walls of the palace sparkle with golden light, as if they were made of countless gold. The roof is covered with gorgeous glazed tiles, which reflect colorful light under the sunlight, making it dazzling and breathtaking. The interior of the palace is even more magnificent, with exquisite murals and carvings like a series of colorful paintings, which are dazzling.
The market in Liangzhou City is also a bustling scene. Various shops and stalls are scattered all over the place, and a wide variety of goods fill the shelves. From precious jewelry to exquisite handicrafts, from rare antiques and calligraphy to delicious local specialties, everything is available.
People come and go here, carefully selecting their favorite items or bargaining with the stall owners, and the noise is endless. There are also various snack stalls and teahouses scattered in the streets and alleys, and the aromas are so fragrant that passers-by stop to taste them. The stall owners are busy greeting customers with warm smiles on their faces. The teahouses are full of leisurely tea drinkers, who are enjoying the fragrant tea while chatting about the world, which is very pleasant.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya chose a medium-sized inn to stay in.
There is no other reason, it's just that the area where this inn is located has the most plants growing, making it convenient for Yu Shuheng to collect information without making any noise.
In this bustling and lively scene, people fully experience the unique charm of Liangzhou City. The streets and alleys are filled with various aromas, and the snack stalls are crowded with people, and the stall owners are busy serving customers; the sounds of singing, dancing and laughter come one after another, interweaving into a cheerful movement.
And all this prosperity originated from an order from King Ning - he actually forcibly relocated all the noble families in Longyou Road to Liangzhou!
Today, Liangzhou City is almost the same as the capital. It has gathered talents and wealth from all over Longyou Road, and has become a place full of vitality and opportunities.
This move by King Ning undoubtedly changed the fate of Liangzhou. In this new environment, how will the noble families adapt? What changes will they bring to Liangzhou? All of this is unknown, but it is certain that Liangzhou City is still very prosperous under King Ning's series of operations.
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng were certainly not wandering around aimlessly. They passed by Xian Yu's residence intentionally or unintentionally.
On the surface, there seemed to be nothing unusual, but what was surprising was that there was a large group of vendors gathered near the front door, back door and side of Xianyu Mansion.
There are all kinds of vendors, including peddlers carrying loads on their shoulders, vendors selling candied haws, merchants selling fruits, etc.
However, what is puzzling is that the peddlers carrying loads on their shoulders should be walking around selling their goods; and the sugar on the strings of candied haws has almost melted, and it is obviously not suitable to be sold here anymore; looking at the fruits again, they also seem lifeless, as if they have been left there for several months without anyone paying attention to them.
A little observation will reveal that these people are obviously the spies responsible for surveillance. Their disguise is too poor, and they have not tried to conceal their true identity at all. Such careless behavior is really laughable.
Or maybe it was just this kind of blatant surveillance.
However, the situation did not go as planned, and the Xianyu family was completely powerless to resist. You know, they cannot easily raise the banner of resistance, because this will trigger a war, and the first to be hurt are the ordinary people who have always followed their family.
After all, once the war begins, these innocent people will suffer. This is the hometown where the Xianyu family has lived for thousands of years! It is not only the family's habitat, but also their roots.
For King Ning, he didn't care whether Longyou Road would become dilapidated and full of misery. But the Xianyu family couldn't just sit back and watch. At this critical moment, all the Xianyu family could do was to escort their own children out.
The head of the Xianyu family knew very well that in such a difficult situation, he could not abandon these neighbors and flee alone. Otherwise, the Xianyu family would lose the foundation on which they depended for survival, and would never recover from it, with no way back.
Ugh!
If you want to wear its crown, you must bear its weight.
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng continued shopping without revealing any flaws. They walked around the palace from a distance and indeed felt the subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy.
This Situ Haoyue is actually a hardworking person?
However, Liangzhou does not have much spiritual energy, and is not as good as the sacred mountains and rivers.
Could it be with the help of spiritual stones?
In this comparison, Situ Haoyue is indeed much richer than Li Chuanyu. No wonder Li Chuanyu is so stingy that he is reluctant to use even a thousand-mile teleportation talisman. In the end, he even has the idea of staying in the mortal world to abuse his power.
The two of them walked slowly along the way, observing with their extraordinary hearing and eyesight. Even if they did not use spiritual power or spread their spiritual sense, the hearing and eyesight of the foundation-building cultivators far exceeded those of the great masters in the secular world, and their sharpness was absolutely amazing.
What's more, Su Xiaoya has the support of space and system, and her mental strength has long been comparable to that of the Yuannao period.
Not to mention Yu Shuheng, whose Mahayana cultivation had long been the ceiling of combat power in this world. The reason why he was unwilling to act rashly was mainly because he did not understand what the current state of the Qingyuan Star cultivation world was like.
In Li Chuanyu's memory, Penglai Island would send envoys out to sea every hundred years to patrol and capture evil cultivators and cultivators who violated the rules and brought disaster to the mortal world.
The cultivators on Penglai Island must be strong. Otherwise, how could they carry out such an important mission? They both believed that the cultivators on Qingyuan Star would not suddenly disappear.
However, Yu Shuheng didn't know what those so-called holy places looked like. After all, Yu Shuheng was just a tree that couldn't transform. Even if he lived for 100,000 years, he was still just a ninth-level evergreen tree spirit.
Ugh!
I will cry if I continue.
Yu Shuheng himself felt very aggrieved. Thinking about his fellow countryman, not only did he have a system when he traveled through time, but he also had such a large spiritual power space. It was really frustrating to compare with others.
Every time Yu Shuheng thought of it, he would turn into a lemon, feeling extremely sour.
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng took a general walk around Liangcheng. Although they seemed to be strolling leisurely, their speed was actually not slow.
The two finally chose the tallest restaurant, Lingyun Pavilion, to have dinner.
Lingyun Pavilion has four floors. It is the second tallest building in Liangcheng besides the royal palace, comparable to the most famous Fan Tower in Kyoto. Of course, it is only comparable. The height of Fan Tower and the palace city in Kyoto are higher than Lingyun Pavilion and the palace wall of Ningwang Palace in Liangzhou City. Fan Tower is a five-story building, and the palace city of Kyoto is 39 meters high.
The only thing about eating at Lingyun Pavilion is that it is expensive!
Very expensive!
Very expensive!
The minimum consumption for a meal is 1000 taels, and the extra amount must be supplemented; if you don’t consume enough, then sorry, no refund will be given. And you have to pay first and then consume.
就连消费时间也是有限制的,总不能1000两就在凌云阁待一天时间吧。所以,1000两白银是一顿饭的时间。一天分中餐和晚餐。中餐消费时间段是:巳时初到未时末(早上9:00点到下午2:59点);晚餐消费时间段是:申时初到未戌时末(下午3:00点到晚上8:59点)。
Don’t blame others for having high consumption and many demands, it’s their fault!
It was high enough that one could ignore the palace walls and vaguely glimpse the towering palaces and broad squares in the palace, as well as see the guards patrolling like ants and the busy eunuchs and palace maids.
It goes without saying that this Lingyun Pavilion is definitely the property of King Ning. Apart from King Ning, who else would dare to open a high-rise building that could peek into the palace? I'm afraid they don't like the head on their neck being too strong.
Of course, only those who are wealthy and courageous would go to the only private room on the fourth floor of Lingyun Pavilion.
Yes, the Lingyun Hall on the fourth floor of Lingyun Pavilion is designed as a completely open hall, spacious and bright. In addition to the one-meter-high mahogany wall facing the palace to the north, the two-meter-high double-opening carved windows are all on top. The other three directions are huge double-opening French windows, which are usually fully opened and directly connected to the wide terrace outside, bringing plenty of natural light and fresh air to the entire space.
The terrace is surrounded by exquisite railings with delicate patterns carved on them, which complement the overall style of Lingyun Pavilion. Standing on the terrace, you can overlook the prosperous scenery of Liangzhou City, including the mountains and winding rivers outside Liangzhou City.
The most ingenious thing is that a small hall is enclosed on the north side of the terraces on the east and west sides, with only a chaise longue in each hall, which is provided for drunken guests to take a nap or for female relatives to change clothes.
The floor of Lingyun Hall is paved with smooth marble, reflecting the light of the dazzling crystal chandelier hanging in the middle of the ceiling. When night falls, the candles scattered on the crystal chandelier are lit, and the whole hall instantly shines.
The one-meter-high wall of Lingyun Hall facing the imperial palace is hung with gorgeous tapestries depicting various mythological and historical scenes, adding a mysterious and solemn atmosphere. It looks low-key yet luxurious.
In the center of the Lingyun Hall, there is a round century-old mahogany dining table and chairs with a diameter of about 1.9 meters. In front of the one-meter mahogany wall facing the palace, there is a row of mahogany armchairs facing each other. In the middle of the mahogany armchairs is a small mahogany high table for guests to rest and communicate. Of course, there are standing spaces for two or three people between the back-to-back mahogany armchairs, ensuring that guests sitting by the window can whisper.
The four corners of Lingyun Hall are decorated with delicate flowers and green plants, which bring vitality and vigor to the entire space.
The environment on the fourth floor of Lingyun Pavilion is both elegant and comfortable, making people feel as if they are in a dreamlike world, away from the hustle and bustle, feeling the tranquility and beauty.
Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng naturally spent their dinner time. After quietly savoring the delicious food, they sat by the window and began to admire the night view of Liangzhou City.
As night fell, Liangzhou City seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil. The entire city was brightly lit, brilliant and splendid, like a city that never sleeps.
Not only the shops of all sizes, but also the doors of the mansions are decorated with big red lanterns, which dot the whole city like stars, illuminating every corner and forming a sea of lights. The candlelight flickers in the exquisite lanterns of various colors, just like the stars in the sky blinking their bright eyes. It is so beautiful to look down from the railing, which makes people intoxicated.
