The 300 feet tall Yan Huang City wall was made of large bluestone, but its surface was very smooth. The scars of war were all healed. A large Li flag hung on the city wall, and there was also a Wang Lu that symbolized nobility. There were also soldiers dressed in gorgeous armor on the city walls. Their armor was just for show. Their beast bodies were their true combat strength.
Jun crossed two provinces and spent six days to reach Yanhuang City. He could not help but let out a long sigh of relief. They had finally arrived. Standing under the towering city wall, there were three gates below the city. The door in the middle was closed and would only be opened when he was out of the army, welcoming the army, or when King Jun was out on a grand trip. The small door on the left was open, and there were soldiers patrolling the city gate.
Jun arranged the team to wait for them to enter the city. He looked around from time to time and sighed at the thickness of the city gate. It should be made of iron nanmu! It was almost two bricks thick. How old must the tree be to make it! The city gate was nearly 30 feet tall, and the main gate was nearly 40 feet tall, which was 15 meters tall.
When it was Jun's turn, the soldiers all looked at Jun with disgust. This beggar from the countryside must not have anything valuable looking around. They kicked Jun and told him to get lost.
Jun's image was indeed disgusting. He washed his face before leaving on the mountain and never changed after rushing down the mountain. He had never seen such a large city wall and gate before. Looking around, he could easily be mistaken for a beggar. He thanked her repeatedly and quickly entered the city gate.
This was the real city. Jun sighed and compared it with the Wang Family Village. The city was tall, and the main road could even allow fifteen carriages to pass side by side. The buildings on both sides were more than three stories tall, and some even had five stories, but it was still very crowded. The Wang Family Village could only have ten rows at most, and the buildings were only one or two stories high, with the highest being only three stories. When they entered Yanhuang City, all they saw was a crowded crowd. Although there were people in the Wang family, there were a lot fewer. All kinds of people came and went. It was already noon when Jun arrived. Jun was a little blind. Yanhuang City was so big, but there was no clue. He randomly found a decent looking inn and walked in.
"What would you like to eat?" This waiter looked average but was not that snobbish. Seeing that Jun was dressed in rags, he did not give Jun a snobbish look and still treated him respectfully. Anyone in Yanhuang City could be a big shot.
"Give me some of the specialty dishes of this shop and some wine to try.”Jun took out an ingot of silver from his tattered clothes and asked,""Is this silver enough?"
"Enough, enough, absolutely enough.”The waiter's eyes lit up, thinking that there were indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers!
"Where's the extra? Consider it my reward, as long as you answer my question.”Seeing the waiter reach out to receive Jun, Jun took the silver and asked.
"Don't just ask one question, even ten or a hundred questions will do.”The waiter thought that the silver was worth five taels and the food was only a few cents. He did not expect this customer to be so generous.
Jun placed the silver in the waiter's hand and asked,""Where can I hear the latest news here?”
The waiter replied,"Of course it's the flower street in the north of Yanhuang City. There are the most people coming and going at night, and the news is the most well-informed."”
"Oh! I know. Help me book a room and boil some water for me later.”Jun knew about it after a few days in the army. These soldiers talked about women the most, and women from brothels at that. They thought that Flower Street was a place where brothels were run. She planned to dress up properly at night.
These few days of traveling had made De Jun very tired. He planned to buy some clothes, take a bath, and rest for half a day before leaving.
After taking a hot bath, the water was changed three times. The waiter who was changing the water was so tired that he complained. He looked at the set of clothes that he had bought from the street vendor for only half a tael of silver. It looked pretty good.
At night, he wore the best clothes he could remember. If one didn't touch it, it would definitely look like silk. It was a blue scholar robe with a bun on his head indicating that he was an adult. It was tied with a white cloth. This was the most popular scholar attire in Yanhuang City.
Jun's body belonged to the lean type, agile and average in strength. It was just that its body would emit a very thick and honest aura. This was the Three-Eyed Reckless Bull. It was also mixed with Wang Lu's nobility and the snake's ruthlessness. Only then would people know that this was a person who had cultivated a beast body.
He asked the passers-by how to get to the Flower Street on the Thinking Huai River. The passers-by looked at him strangely, thinking that the scholar actually didn't know how to get to the Flower Street. It seemed that he was another bookworm. The Flower Street in Yanhuang City was one of a kind. There were all kinds of people coming and going every day. The most common thing was that scholars fell in love at first sight after meeting a beautiful woman.
They arrived at the so-called River of Thoughts. The river was no wider than eight meters. The surface of the river was very calm, but it was illuminated by lanterns as bright as day. There were all kinds of flower boats, and there were some colorful buildings on the shore.
Jun walked on the street and looked at so many buildings, but he was worried. Where should he go to ask for information?
However, a middle-aged woman dressed flirtatiously came forward and asked,"Young Master, do you want to play?"”She did not let Jun agree and pulled Jun into the house.
However, Jun knew why she was here. He looked at the middle-aged woman and quickly avoided her. "No need, I still have things to do."”She turned around and left without looking back. But he heard a voice behind him say,"The poor scholar still doesn't know how to appreciate favors."”
Jun laughed lightly. He was not a scholar, and he had tens of thousands of taels of Wang Lu notes with him to save the Second Prince. They were all military expenses for the Braving Blade Camp.
Jun thought that there had to be a lot of people to get information, so he looked around to see where there were more people. He casually pulled someone over and asked,"Brother! Where are the most people in this place?"
The man pointed ahead impatiently and said,""Go and see for yourself."
"Oh! Thank you." Jun thanked him and walked forward.
As expected, there were many people. Looking at the crowded crowd in front of him, he sighed. However, they were all stopped outside the door, waiting for the door to open.
Standing at the periphery, he saw that these people were dressed differently. There were escorts, scholars, young masters, and even scholars. People who were familiar with each other gathered together and chatted.
This was what Jun hoped for. Listening to these people gather and chat, Jun kept squeezing around, hoping to hear the information he wanted. She squeezed her way to these scholars.
A white-robed scholar with fair skin and a hint of red said,""Fantasy Demon Immortal will be on stage again today. Squeak squeak! Her dancing skills are incredible. I heard that many important officials in the court came to support her, but she didn't see a single one!”The scholar said proudly.
"What's the big deal? I also heard that Fantasy Demon Immortal not only has unparalleled dancing skills, but she's also proficient in the four arts. Even the current emperor wants to take her into the palace!”The one who spoke was a slightly shorter scholar in an earthen yellow robe.
"Oh!" The surrounding scholars sighed in surprise.
"Humph! If he was really that godly, he wouldn't have to perform here.”Jun thought and squeezed to the side of those who looked like rich kids.
However, they were all discussing romantic matters. Jun Ke was not interested in these things. After running for a long time, he did not hear anyone discussing the current major events.
"The door is open, the door is open." Just as Jun was about to squeeze into those who looked like officials. The door opened, and someone shouted,""Everyone pay five taels of silver first."
"What? Five taels of silver?”Jun thought in surprise. Jun was the kind of person who would spend money when it was necessary. No matter how much it was, he would never frown. Just like how he used five taels of silver to inquire about information during the day, he believed that saving the Second Prince was a big deal. But now, he had to spend five taels of silver to enter.
Looking at the people squeezing into the house in front of him, Jun had a premonition that something important would happen tonight, so he gritted his teeth and went in.
