Chapter 75: Entering the Palace to Face the Holy Spirit

Chang'an, the center of the Tang Empire, has been the lifeline of the entire Tang Empire more than a thousand years ago. In this city known as the largest city in China, I don't know how many strong people are hidden.

This is also a city that is said to never fall.

Looking at this city from afar, whether it is Zichen or Li Zijun, a sense of pride arises. Even Lin Xubai, who came to Chang'an for the first time, was deeply shocked by this huge city. What kind of power is needed to build this giant city with a length of more than 100 miles each?

Even the area of ​​this city exceeds the land area of ​​some small countries in the southern part of China.

Gradually, the team was getting closer and closer to Chang'an City. When the carriage came to the front of Chang'an City, Lin Xubai was surprised to find that there was no city wall in this city, and there was no city guard search even on the road level.

"Isn't Chang'an known as the most solid city in the world? Why... why don't there be even a city wall?" Lin Xubai, who was shocked in his heart, pointed to the unobstructed avenue ahead and asked with some trembling questions.

Faced with Lin Xubai's problem, Zichen and Li Zijun blurted out without any hesitation and said, "Chang'an, do you need a city wall?"

Lin Xubai was speechless, yes, does Chang'an need a city wall? With the national strength of the Tang Empire, which team can reach the foot of Chang'an City? Even if it really hits under the city wall, how could the strong men hidden in Chang'an City ignore it?

Over the years, only the Khan of the Chihuo clan led his army to the city of Chang'an, but what happened? The Chihuo clan, which was prosperous for a while, suffered heavy losses and returned from a crushing defeat. He was even more seriously injured and unable to recover. Now he has become a vassal of Zi Chen.

Thinking of this, even though Lin Xubai was not from the Tang Dynasty, he felt a sense of admiration.

Chang'an really doesn't need a city wall!

Chang'an City is divided into three parts: the imperial city, the inner city and the outer city. The imperial city is naturally in the center. The members of the royal family of the Tang Empire are living in the Tang Empire. The inner city is closely adjacent to the imperial city, and all the people live in princes, nobles, officials and nobles. Of course, some powerful merchants also have the ability to move into the inner city and the outer city, mainly ordinary people live. Because Chang'an City is too huge, it takes hundreds of miles to go straight from the east to the west of the city, so the streets of Chang'an City are extremely wide, enough horses to rush side by side. The 1,000 elite cavalry led by Zi Chen may be a huge number for other cities, but it is not worth mentioning for Chang'an City.

The wide streets are enough to accommodate this thousand-person cavalry entering Chang'an City.

The convoy slowly drove into Chang'an City, but did not attract the attention of ordinary people. In Chang'an City, thousands of cavalrymen were shuttled through each other from time to time, but the people were full of curiosity when they looked at the cavalry.

Although these cavalry were all wearing Tang Dynasty armor, their faces and their bodies were definitely not like ordinary Tang Dynasty cavalry. Some merchants who traveled around the world had already recognized that these were all grassland demons, but they just whispered a few words and did not shout or shout.

The Tang Empire accommodates all rivers. Not to mention the arrival of the grassland demons, even if the abyss demons appear on the street, it will not cause much panic.

It was a tight outer city, and it took about half an hour to walk. After all, the outer city has the largest area, and the distance to the inner city is about forty miles. When the convoy arrived at the inner city, he found that the inner city and the outer city were separated by a river. A huge arch bridge was built above the river, and under the river, various ships were spread. Whether it was ordinary people or those nobles, they all walked through the bridge or on the boat, and there was no distinction between inner and outer cities.

The royal family of the Tang Empire was enlightened. Even the most ordinary people were qualified to enter the inner city and even directly petition in front of the imperial city gate. Because of this reason, the officials of the Tang Empire have always been relatively honest, and few officials dared to do anything zoonotic.

The people of the Tang Dynasty are also the happiest people in the world.

Looking at the coming and going merchants and the heartfelt smiles on the faces of every Chang'an person, Lin Xubai sighed.

The Taoist sect has always promoted the ascension to become an immortal. The fairyland is beautiful, but there is no way to understand that Chang'an City is a fairyland on earth.

There may be struggles here, and there may be disputes here, but for ordinary people, being able to live carefree for a lifetime is a kind of happiness in itself.

And he also vaguely understood why the Tang Empire was able to fight against the powerful Qingtian Dao Sect for so many years. Just to protect this happiness, I don’t know how many Tang men dared to sacrifice their lives and shed their blood.

He finally understood why the Tang Empire was unable to resist the Taoist sect, resisted the grassland demons in the west, fought against the deserts in the north, and welcomed the East China Sea tribes in the east, not only were they not defeated, but became stronger and stronger.

The Tang Dynasty is still the Tang Dynasty after all!

What can be defeated by such a nation?

How could this be done if the Qingtian Dao Sect is determined to restore the tradition of the Dao Sect to the Tang Empire?

When Lin Xubai was amazed, the convoy had already passed through the inner city and finally arrived in front of the imperial city. Zi Chen sent Li Zijun back.

"Are you going to the palace to meet your father with me? Or go home to rest first? Come again tomorrow?" Zi Chen was ordered to come back to award merits this time. According to the rules, he should go home first and wait for His Majesty to summon him. However, because General Ziyang has a close relationship with His Majesty, Zi Chen has often followed his father to attack since he was a child. At this time, it makes sense to go to the palace as a junior to pay homage to His Majesty.

"My father is not at home, so it's boring to go back to that home. I'd better go with you to pay homage to Your Majesty first!" Zi Chen said with little need to think,

"Okay, but you subordinates and Brother Lin are probably going to wait here!" Li Zijun nodded apologetically at Lin Xubai.

Although Chang'an City is not defenseless, the imperial city is an imperial city after all, and there are still basic rules. One of them is that large-scale teams are absolutely not allowed to enter the imperial city privately.

"Your Highness, don't worry about me, I'll wait..." Lin Xubai quickly spoke. No matter what, he is also a prince. He came to Chang'an City with a member of the Qingtian Dao Sect and wanted to gain a foothold. There are so many places to rely on him in the future. He is so polite, so how dare he show off his own tricks.

"Haha, that's wronged Brother Lin..."

"Don't be wronged, don't be wronged!" Lin Xubai shook his head repeatedly.

At that moment, Zi Chen reminded Chiguxiong a few words, and then rode two horses into the imperial city with Li Zijun, and came to the gate of the palace before dismounting.

The news of Li Zijun returning to Beijing had already informed His Majesty that the eunuch on duty had been waiting at the gate of the palace. When he saw the arrival of the Fourth Prince, he greeted him in a flattering manner.

No matter how Li Zijun's mother was born, he is the son of His Majesty today, and it is definitely not something that these ordinary eunuchs can offend.

Including Zi Chen, who was following Li Zijun, also got the eunuch's flattering smile. Under the leadership of the eunuch, Li Zijun and Zichen walked through the corridors and came directly to His Majesty's imperial study. Now it has passed the court time, and His Majesty usually likes to stay in the imperial study.
