On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Hechuan set off for Kyoto, and Jiang Sui accompanied him.
Both the Qi and Lu families prepared carriages and all the necessary things for the journey, and brought servants to guard the house to ensure their safety.
On the Feihua Tower side, Helian Jing also said hello and sent a few experts to escort them.
This time when Xiao Hechuan goes to Kyoto, he has a lot of things to face, especially some people who persecuted him in his previous life.
He was the top scholar, but someone did something to him and he was not able to enter the Hanlin Academy as he wished. Instead, he was sent to the Dali Temple, where he stayed for more than a year.
Kyoto is hundreds or thousands of times more complicated than Jeju. It is the biggest arena for power struggles. Power struggles are taking place in every corner of Kyoto, from small disputes over houses to big disputes over imperial power.
Before Jiang Suilin went to Kyoto, he had already arranged all matters for Bei Moting. If there were any issues that could not be resolved, Su Yanqing would help him to deal with them.
If Fang Miao really can't solve the problem, she can just go find Su Yanqing.
I don’t know why, but Jiang Sui always feels that there are still many things waiting for him in Kyoto. His intuition tells him that this will be an extraordinary journey.
It has nothing to do with Xiao Hechuan, but with himself.
…
It took us a full half month to trek along the way. The further north we went, the colder the weather became. The temperature in the north is already colder than in the central and southern parts of the country in winter.
The closer we got to Kyoto, the more ice and snow had not melted along the way, so we were delayed for two more days.
Before entering Kyoto, the coachman shouted excitedly from afar:
"We've arrived in Kyoto, we've arrived in Kyoto!"
Jiang Sui lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and what he saw was a magnificent city. This was the most prosperous and majestic place in the whole of Daqing, the true footsteps of the emperor.
The overwhelming momentum and the sense of oppression make people's hearts surge. This is a place that many people yearn for.
The towering walls were filled with soldiers and flags, with the word "Celebration" written on them, fluttering in the wind.
There are also countless watchtowers, which always keep an eye on any unusual movements inside and outside the city. The city gates are also heavily guarded, and patrol teams rotate every twelve hours.
This place is both the safest and the most dangerous place. There are many twists and turns hidden in the dark that are invisible to the naked eye.
Recently, the most important thing is the candidates who come to Beijing to take part in the Spring Examination. They all have documents to enter the city and have to go through layers of questioning and screening.
When Xiao Hechuan saw the city again, he was filled with emotion. He finally returned here again. Unlike the hardships in his previous life, his journey here was very smooth in this life.
I hope that after entering Kyoto, everything will go smoothly, but I can't just take things as they come.
The group entered Kyoto smoothly. Once inside the city, you could clearly feel what it meant to be prosperous in a different dimension.
Jeju is a transportation and economic fortress and is already very prosperous, but it is still far inferior to Kyoto.
There is no distinction between rich and poor here; everywhere you go is prosperous and strong.
In the true sense, there were great scholars chatting and laughing among the people, and there were no unlearned people among the people. Even the most ordinary people wore decent gowns and gold and silver jewelry. You couldn't even see a beggar, let alone a piece of coarse linen clothing.
Jiang Sui sat in the carriage, looking out curiously, and couldn't help but sigh, "Kyoto is really so rich and dazzling."
The group has not found a place to stay yet. They will be staying in Kyoto for several months, so they need to find a stable place to stay, preferably close to the Imperial Examination Hall. Of course, everyone is rich, so the environment cannot be neglected. At least it has to be elegant and quiet.
Xiao Hechuan was so familiar with this place that he led everyone to find a pretty good inn to stay in. After days of trekking, everyone was very tired, so they first found a place to stay for two days to recuperate.
Not long after they moved into the inn, Helian Jing received news that Xiao Hechuan and his wife had arrived in Beijing. He knew that Xia Wanning couldn't wait to see Jiang Sui, so he took her with him to look for them.
Both of them have extraordinary identities, and they travel very low-key. The main reason is that they don't want Xiao Hechuan to be affected before the Spring Examination. If someone with ulterior motives knew that he was close to Prince Xun's Mansion, who knows what kind of trouble they would make.
Jiang Sui woke up from a nap at the inn and was about to go out to find something to eat, but as soon as she opened the door, she bumped into Xia Wanning who came to look for her.
The two met again after two years, and were stunned for a moment when they saw each other for the first time.
Xia Wanning gave her a big hug:
"Sui Sui, long time no see, I have finally waited for this day."
She couldn't wait to take her to the theater she opened to have a look. The success of her theater today was inseparable from the two wonderful scripts she wrote for herself.
When he opened the door and saw the stunning beauty, Jiang Sui felt that his eyes were respected.
"Wan Ning, long time no see, you are getting more and more beautiful!" She said this subconsciously, making Xia Wan Ning laugh.
She took Jiang Sui's hand and looked her up and down. After not seeing her for two years, Jiang Sui had grown a lot taller and became more delicate, but her smile was still as sweet as ever.
She could say that in the whole of Kyoto, she thought there was no one else whose smile was sweeter than hers.
"You are becoming more and more beautiful, but your smile remains as sweet as ever!"
Jiang Sui pulled his hand away from hers, then took two steps back. This action made Xia Wanning a little confused. The two of them were close friends in Jeju, so how come they became more estranged after not seeing each other for two years?
Jiang Sui bowed to her very solemnly:
"Greetings to the Princess of Anping County. May the Princess be happy and prosperous forever!"
So that's how it is. Xia Wanning breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and scolded her, then went to help her:
"You scared me to death. I thought I had offended you in some way and that made you feel alienated from me. So it's because of this. Why should we care about these empty formalities between you and me?"
"Don't worry, it's just this once. The next time I see you, don't accuse me of committing a crime of insubordination!"
"No, no, the more casual you are, the better. Now that you are in Kyoto, there is still half a month before the Spring Examination. During this time, my mission is to take you to Kyoto to eat, drink and have fun."
Two girls who are very close to each other haven't seen each other for such a long time, but when they meet, they have endless topics to talk about, just like two chirping little sparrows.
Helian Jing found a very secret place to meet Xiao Hechuan, and the four of them sat down to reminisce about the past.
Jiang Sui and Xia Wanning were chatting non-stop, and the sound of a woman's silver bell-like laughter could be heard from the room from time to time. The two male protagonists, while talking, gently looked at the love of their life!
