Li Shimin faked his death? Then I will be powerful enough to conquer the world!

"County Magistrate Wu, we're almost to Chang'an! There are more and more people on the road! It's really bustling!"

Lin Yu couldn't contain his excitement and exclaimed loudly at the top of his voice.

Ryan was also smiling.

His eyes sparkled brightly as he stared intently at the endless stream of cars and the bustling crowd outside the curtain, with a look of amazement on his face.

When Wu Meiniang heard this, she raised her hand slightly, and her slender white fingers gently placed on the curtain. With a little force, the curtain slowly opened.

The bustling scene outside slowly unfolded before her eyes.

On the wide official road, horse-drawn carriages, ox-drawn carts, and donkey-drawn carts crisscrossed each other, their wheels rolling.

The passengers on the bus included richly dressed dignitaries as well as simple common people. They were all smiling and talking to each other eagerly, and their laughter echoed in the air.

On both sides of the road, makeshift stalls are lined up one after another, and small vendors are shouting at the top of their lungs to sell all kinds of special small items, including exquisite handicrafts, fragrant dry food, and steaming hot tea.

Wu Meiniang stared at all this, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.

Memories flooded into her mind like a tide, thinking back to the past when she stepped into the palace surrounded by red walls at a young age and was favored by Emperor Taizong and became a talented woman.

When she first entered the palace, she thought she would be able to stand out in the palace with her talent and beauty.

Then her fate took a sharp turn for the worse and she was demoted to Ganye Temple.

Until His Majesty granted her amnesty, she was promoted to the seventh rank official position due to her good deed of donating precious medicinal herbs, and thus embarked on the road of official career.

Along the way, she relied on her wisdom and unyielding perseverance to work diligently in local governance, achieved remarkable political achievements, and eventually became one of the highly acclaimed top ten county magistrates.

Now, thanks to the special permission of Your Majesty, I am able to go to Chang'an to participate in the grand New Year's Day celebration.

Wu Meiniang slowly closed her eyes.

Chang'an, the Imperial Palace, I, Wu Meiniang, am back again.

All the things that happened in the past have become the whetstone on her road ahead, sharpening her today's tenacious determination.

This time, she is no longer the woman who depends on others for support in the palace struggle. She wants to use her real talents and hard work to carve out a vast world of her own in the court of the Tang Dynasty.

In order to move towards the pinnacle of power, she must become the most powerful official in the country and make everyone in the world look at her with admiration.

In another carriage, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng sat opposite each other.

Both of them were famous people, but at this moment they stared at each other like ordinary people. There seemed to be thousands of words in their eyes, but they were silent.

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang are young after all. Although they seem mature and steady compared to their peers in their daily behavior, they can't get rid of the innocence of children after all.

From the moment they set foot on Shaanxi Road, they were so excited that they could hardly control themselves and hardly even looked back into the car for a moment.

Di Renjie was originally struggling in his mind. As one of the top ten county magistrates, he had to figure out what would be the most appropriate way for him to go to Chang'an to attend the ceremony.

Although their county has gradually been put on the right track under his careful management, he feels distressed when he thinks about the huge cost of purchasing and using horse-drawn carriages, as he has always been frugal and simple.

Just then, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng came over. Di Renjie had an idea and decided to take a ride. He was very happy at the moment.

Along the way, Li Chunfeng's eyes always fell on Li Yuanfang involuntarily.

In his opinion, Di Renjie was at least a county magistrate, and he held an official position, and his status and identity were different from those of ordinary people.

Li Yuanfang was originally an orphan, but by chance he became a guard and was able to follow Di Renjie to Chang'an.

This dramatic change of fate is truly amazing.

Moreover, in Li Chunfeng's eyes, Li Yuanfang's daily behavior does not make him look like a good person at all.

The sharp look he showed from time to time and the fierce aura he exuded always made people feel that something was wrong with him.

It's a pity that he and Di Renjie have a deep friendship now and are already close to each other. Even if he has doubts in his heart, he can't say anything more and can only bury these doubts deep in his heart.

"It's lively! Do you feel that Chang'an is much more lively than before?"

Yuan Tiangang looked through the car window at the crowd and bustling scene outside. He couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly and sighed deeply.

Li Chunfeng also cast his gaze outside the car, carefully observing everything around him. After a moment, he nodded heavily in agreement, "This is more than just much more lively! I've been in Chang'an for many years, and the scene I've seen before is a world apart from what I've seen today."

"This kind of prosperity is unprecedented. I wonder how Chang'an has become so prosperous."

"You two are lucky!"

At this time, Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang had already leaned half of their bodies out of the carriage.

Everything can make them feel new and interesting.

The smooth and solid cement road on the ground.

Trees are neatly lined on both sides of the road.

The lanterns hanging around are of various shapes and colorful.

The magnificent city of Chang'an was slowly unfolding before their eyes, with the city walls stretching for miles, like a sleeping dragon lying on the earth.

Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang both widened their eyes involuntarily, deeply shocked by the scene before them.

Li Chunfeng looked at the two people in ecstasy, and couldn't help but feel a little proud. "So, this is Chang'an City. I've seen the world, right?"

His inquiry received no response.

Di Renjie's gaze was fixed on the Chang'an city wall, his eyes filled with a fiery light.

So big, so magnificent! At this moment, Di Renjie felt a strong sense of pride in his heart. This pride was not only derived from the magnificent scenery before him, but also from his deep love and sense of belonging to the Tang Dynasty.

He felt that he belonged to Chang'an, and this great city would be the place where he could realize his ambitions.

He didn't know that everyone who came to Chang'an City would be attracted by the unique charm of this city, and would have a strong resonance in their hearts that they belonged to Chang'an.

Here, their dreams can take root and sprout.
