The Devil's Wife, I Just Want to Survive

Lingxiao calendar 3.25 million, January 24, 2721.

Zhou Dynasty's imperial capital, Da Zhou City!

As the imperial capital of the Zhou Dynasty, this city is huge, and the city walls on all four sides are also thousands of meters long!

On the golden red city walls, towers stand tall, and the hundreds of meters long city gates are carved with dragons and phoenixes, which are magnificent!

Through the thousand-meter gate of the city gate, you can see some of the scenery inside the city.

There are buildings of different styles, glazed tiles are shining, and the golden jade pavilions are also shining in the sun.

On the official road far outside the city gate, a team of horses is galloping...

"Wow, is this the rumored Da Zhou Imperial City? It is really much more magnificent than our nine cities in the northern region!"

On the back of the leading horse, Wang Que, dressed in a white robe, laughed and spoke.

He is tall and straight, and at this moment, riding a tall horse, he looks like a general returning to the city.

After more than two months of teleportation, they finally arrived near the imperial city. There is a teleportation station in the imperial city, but they are not qualified to use it yet, so they can only teleport outside the city and ride horses.

In the crowd, Huang Xiaozhu looked up and saw rows of patrolling soldiers on the towers of the city wall. Those soldiers were all armed and powerful, which made people feel awed and respectful.

At this time, a large number of passers-by gathered on both sides of the city gate. They all wanted to enter the city, but today, the city gate corridor was covered with red carpets, and the two rows of soldiers were all wearing heavy armor and holding standard spears.

This seemed to be... waiting for someone.

And before that person came, no matter whether entering or leaving the city, they were not allowed to approach the city gate!

In the middle of the city gate, Xu Haisi and Zhang Shengyue, dressed in brocade clothes and wearing crowns, stood solemnly. I don’t know how long they have been standing here.

Until... they saw the man in white in the distance on the official road!

The two looked at each other, then smiled and walked forward respectfully to greet him.

As they walked forward, the red carpet a hundred meters in front of them continued to materialize and spread forward.

Across from them, Wang Que's eyes moved slightly and whispered: "Madam, this is not to welcome us, right? This......... pomp is a bit too scary, isn't it?"

He was very arrogant in the Northern Territory, but he had discussed with Mo Lingqing on the way to the Imperial City, that is, to be as low-key as possible, and not to attract attention if possible, but now...

Mo Lingqing whispered: "Maybe there are other big shots coming."

Wang Que hummed: "It's better to be so, your husband doesn't want to be too ostentatious now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the voices of Xu Haisi and Zhang Shengyue came at the same time. Not only that, what they said was exactly the same: "The younger Xu Haisi (Zhang Shengyue), welcome Mr. Wang into the city!"

Not only are their voices clear and bright, but there is also the bonus of the noble spirit......... With this voice, countless pairs of eyes inside and outside the city gate stared at them.

These countless passers-by were either in awe, or curious, or envious and jealous, with all kinds of emotions, but no one dared to show disdain.

Being able to block the main city gate... that must be something that only someone from the royal family can do.

Now the main city gate is blocked, and a red carpet of 10,000 meters is laid, and two sixth-rank officials are sent to welcome him on foot. What kind of identity...

Countless people gasped: "Hiss, this person is so terrifying!"

"Mr. Wang? To be called Mr.... Is this a great scholar entering the city?" [ps: In the Lingxiaoxing literati cultivation system, literati who enter the virtual realm are called "great scholars". Of course, this is limited to the lower world of Lingxiaoxing. After ascending to the Dao domain, the literati system is another kind. I'll explain it in advance, so that no one will say that I write whatever I think of, and my setting is incomparably complete, hehe. I don't count the total number of words. ]

"There are only a few great scholars, and I haven't heard of a great scholar called Mr. Wang?"

"Look again, this person is so young, he must have taken the anti-aging pill, so good!"

Countless people whispered, but they were all motionless and didn't dare to make any disturbance.

At this moment, even the most vicious people in the imperial city were extremely honest. In such a scene, anyone who dared to act rashly would be sentenced to death!

And the shouts of Xu Haisi and Zhang Shengyue also made Wang Que's scalp numb.

The thing he was most worried about still happened. They were here to welcome him!

But in such a big scene...how could he keep a low profile?

No, I really want to keep a low profile, I really want to keep a low profile!

Wang Que showed a stiff smile on his face, and he raised his hand to signal everyone to stop their horses. This was the basic etiquette of the Zhou Kingdom.

If they were to welcome him on foot, he had to be polite.

He got off the horse and the twoHe walked to the horse that Mo Lingqing was riding and stretched out his hand to help Mo Lingqing get off the horse. This was also the etiquette of the Zhou Kingdom.

After everyone got off the horse, Wang Que looked at everyone helplessly, and then signaled everyone to follow him.

Taking a square step, Wang Que led everyone over.

When the two sides were still 20 meters apart, Wang Que and Xu Haisi all bowed and smiled.

Xu Haisi and Zhang Shengyue might be smiling for real, but Wang Que was really smiling. How could he smile at such a big moment?

"Welcome, sir. You must have suffered a lot from running around all the way..."

"It's okay, it's okay. These are all trivial matters for me. The imperial capital is the big thing..."

After a polite greeting, Xu Haisi and Zhang Shengyue bowed slightly and invited Wang Que and others to enter the city.

At this moment, I don't know when, there were more people in brocade clothes at the gate of the city.

Wang Que's scalp exploded when he saw this scene, and it was no longer numb: "Hai, Haisi, who are those?"

Xu Haisi smiled and whispered: "In the largest sedan in front, that is our current crown prince, that is, the sixth prince."

"What?!!!" Wang Que's heart stopped: "The crown prince is here?!!!"

"What identity do I have that makes the crown prince come out to greet me?!!!"

Xu Haisi shut up and sent a message: "Sir, don't be surprised. The crown prince is doing this to show respect to the wise. The crown prince needs a good reputation now..."

Wang Que sent a message back: "That's not to blame me!"

Xu Haisi continued to send a message: "You are the crown prince's guest, and you will present a poem later. If you don't have a reputation, then even if you present a poem that spreads all over the world, the influence will not be too great. But if you are famous in the imperial capital, you can present a poem then..."

Wang Que now completely understood that everything about him was planned and arranged by the crown prince.

Although he was not happy with the feeling of being calculated and arranged, he could not avoid it because he was not strong enough now.

Xu Haisi continued: "The person in the sedan chair one step behind is the vice president of our Yunxiao Academy. I mentioned it to you before."

"Behind them are the supporters of our prince. Thirty percent of them are old-fashioned dignitaries, and seventy percent are new-fashioned dignitaries. There are... three to four thousand forces in total."

Wang Que's heart trembled. How could three to four thousand forces in the imperial capital be so powerful?

Being able to gain a foothold in the imperial capital and having a large and influential force... any of them is a terrifying existence that he cannot afford to offend!

"Fuck, I really shouldn't have copied the "General Entering the Wine". Now I understand the arrangement!"

Wang Que cursed in his heart, but at this moment he could only bite the bullet and continue to move forward...

This time, this muddy water in the dynasty... I'm afraid it's hard to avoid...

In such a scene, even if he is low-key, the forces of the right prime minister will notice him...
