The scenery outside the window gradually changed.
The plains were far away, and the convoy was traveling through the winding mountains and forests. The endless open space was gone, but there was more green right in front of us - that was coniferous pine and spruce.
Occasionally there are alpine rhododendrons, but it seems that the spring breeze has not yet reached here, so those alpine rhododendrons are in bud but have not bloomed.
Fu Xiaoguan looked quietly through the car window, but his mind drifted to the temple of the Yu Dynasty.
The eastern border army was defeated, and the eldest prince was appointed by His Majesty himself. Although the opposing voices in the court were superficially deceived by the lies he had woven, in fact, those who could stand on the golden palace were not fools.
If the eldest prince wins the battle, the lie will become truth.
But the eldest prince was defeated, and those officials who had taken advantage of him in the past would probably take this opportunity to launch a counterattack - those censors would even criticize the emperor, let alone him, a fourth-rank censor.
He was not very worried about this. After all, there was Yan Beixi in the temple to help him, and there was Queen Shang in the harem to support him. However, gossip could melt gold, and he had to be on guard against what those guys might do to him behind his back.
Especially the fourth prince Yu Wenshu!
This guy must not take advantage of the eldest prince's defeat to cause trouble. Fu Xiaoguan absolutely does not believe that Yu Wenshu's power is limited to Yuhuatai!
If he colluded with some high-ranking officials of the imperial court, or even persuaded his uncle Xue Dingshan, and raised the banner of rebellion, the Yu Dynasty would really fall.
What Fu Xiaoguan didn't know was that his father, Fu Daguan, had already arrived in Guanyun City and bought a place that he could not even imagine.
He was about to arrive at Guanyun City, and Official Fu had just left Guanyun City. He did not return to Linjiang in the Yu Dynasty, but went straight through Fan State!
Fu Xiaoguan had no idea that the person accompanying Fu Daguan was a woman. If Fu Xiaoguan saw her, he would be shocked.
She is the master of huqin played by Hongxiuzhao!
Huqin Hu Dajia was peeling a grape and asked Fu Daguan, "Are you that worried?"
"I'll have to think about it a little more."
"Who in this Wu Dynasty can touch him? Wouldn't it be a waste of time for you to go to Fan State?"
"It's always good to have more ways to retreat."
Mrs. Hu threw the peeled grapes into her mouth and frowned, as if she felt something was sour. She looked up at Mr. Fu and finally couldn't help but say, "His surname should have been Wu!"
"No...!" Official Fu suddenly became furious. "He is Yunqing and I's son, and his last name is Fu!"
Mr. Hu chuckled, shook his head and looked out the window.
"If his last name was Fu, you wouldn't have come to Guanyun City to buy that Xianqing Residence, nor would you have refused to visit the Second Princess, Her Highness Yu Yu. As his position rises, his enemies become stronger. You worry you can't protect him, and you need to find a safe place for him. In this world, there's no place safer than Guanyun City. Why... deceive yourself!"
Official Fu's anger faded, and a smile appeared on his fat face. "There are some things you don't understand."
"But he's about to arrive in Guanyun City. Even if he doesn't go to find out the truth, someone will eventually tell him the truth!"
…
At noon, the convoy came out of the mountains and was greeted by a plateau - this was the extremely famous Li Luo Plateau of the Wu Dynasty - as they left the dust, they saw falling stars.
The sky is clear and blue, with towering snow-capped mountains in the distance and lush green meadows nearby. There are several herds of horses, a few tents, and wisps of smoke.
Guanyun City is located on the Liluo Plateau.
Fu Xiaoguan lifted the front curtain and saw a silhouette like a blue dragon lying on the horizon!
It was the capital of the Wu Dynasty.
Because you can watch the clouds surge from the city, it is named Cloud Viewing City!
This city brought great shock to Fu Xiaoguan and many students!
Compared with Jinling, it does not have the delicate beauty of Jinling, nor does it have the ubiquitous fragrance of ink and literary charm of Jinling.
It looks extremely tough and a bit more masculine than Jinling.
The city wall was built with black stone. It was majestic, tall, solemn and rigorous, giving people a great sense of oppression.
The buildings in the city are also very different from those in Jinling City.
Most of the buildings in Jinling City are brick and wood structures, which are exquisitely decorated and gorgeously decorated.
But as the convoy entered Guanyun City and arrived at Honglu Temple, all the buildings Fu Xiaoguan saw along the way were built of bluestone, most of which were two-story buildings, giving him a sense of ruggedness and heroism.
Even the streets were much wider than those in Jinling. Pedestrians were shoulder to shoulder, and all of them were carrying swords.
The Wu Dynasty valued martial arts, while the Yu Dynasty valued literature, which was fully reflected in these places.
The Honglu Temple is located in the inner city. When Fu Xiaoguan and his party arrived here, the lights were already on.
The person who came to greet them was the Minister of the Guanli Hall, whose surname was Chong and whose name was Shan, and who was about forty years old.
In the huge square of the Honglu Temple, the important minister held a simple welcome ceremony, and then the officials of the Guanli Hall, led by the right vice minister Bian Lin, handed over the students and accompanying officials from the four countries to the envoys of various countries stationed in Guanyun City.
A minor incident occurred during this time, involving the Yi Kingdom's Sixth Prince Yan Hanyu. This guy arrived here in a prisoner cart, and Wu Linger did not inform Chongshan in advance, which led to some disputes when he met with the Yi Kingdom envoy.
Wu Linger said that this guy had injured Yu Dynasty official Fu in Fanning City and wanted to take him to the Ministry of Justice. Of course, the Yi Kingdom envoys refused to accept this. What a joke! For the Sixth Prince, arriving in Guanyun City in a prison cart was a great humiliation in itself. If he was immediately imprisoned, would they still have their heads?
So after some negotiations, the envoy of the Yi State made a guarantee that the Sixth Prince would not commit any crime in Guanyun City. Finally, Wu Linger gave in and handed the guy over to the envoy of the Yi State.
Afterwards, Wu Linger bid farewell to Fu Xiaoguan. She wanted to return to the palace and said she would come to see him early the next morning.
Fu Xiaoguan and his party came from the Yu Dynasty, and the ones who came to greet them were naturally the Yu Dynasty envoys stationed in Guanyun City.
"Your Highness Deng Xiu pays respect to Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess!"
"No need for formalities... Where is our residence?" Yu Wenjun felt a little tired. She had a severe headache since she came to the Li Luo Plateau. It just so happened that she had her period at this time, so she felt very uncomfortable and wanted to rest.
"...Please follow me."
The group got on the carriage again and, led by Deng Xiu, left the inner city, walked along a quiet street, and arrived at a courtyard in the middle city.
This is a two-story courtyard house with only two entrances. There is no front yard garden and no rockery in the courtyard. There are only some flowers and plants planted in the backyard. Those flowers and plants are neglected and grow wildly in this spring.
The backyard is not big and is mainly for the female family members to live in.
In the front yard, Yu Wenyun and Dong Shulan said goodbye to Fu Xiaoguan, and then went to the backyard to rest under the guidance of a maid.
Deng Xiu was busy running around, and it took him half an hour to settle down a hundred students and more than ten officials.
As for the five hundred black-armored knights led by Xue Pinggui, they stayed in Fanning City - this was the rule of the Wu Dynasty, foreign soldiers were not allowed to enter Guanyun City.
