Chapter 1033 Waiting for the Meeting
The majestic imperial city suppresses the four directions of the earth veins, and is the place where the dragon energy of the nine states gathers. Not to mention that there is a true dragon emperor entrenched in it. For an outsider like Wu Yi, fear arises from the bottom of his heart.
The others have already started their steps. Gu Qingyue, who came with Wu Yi, also entered with curiosity and caution. Only Wu Yi was left at the end.
The imperial envoy walked forward for a while, and seeing that Wu Yi did not catch up, he smiled and said: "General Chen led thousands of troops, and the northern barbarians were so brutal, but he did not change his face. He should not be afraid of this trip."
Praise in public and criticize in private!
He didn't know that at this moment, Wu Yi's back was sweating profusely. The whole back was mostly wet, but the front was normal. Wu Yi nodded awkwardly and followed.
Every step was extremely difficult. In this place, Wu Yi didn't even dare to peek at the fate star plate. As a last resort, Wu Yi could only secretly visualize the pattern on the reverse scale of the golden dragon of the fortune of the Great Dynasty. After several rounds of visualization, the feeling of oppression finally subsided a lot.
However, after a long time of visualization, Wu Yi seemed to go from one extreme to another. Wu Yi was surprised and even terrified, and found that he actually felt that this majestic imperial city was somewhat familiar.
This is my first time here! This inexplicable sense of familiarity, needless to say, must be related to the reverse scale pattern of the golden dragon of fortune.
"The court has been dispersed, and the official is reviewing the memorials. After the review, he will receive outsiders. You will wait at the gate at that time. When you hear the eunuch calling you in, go in without looking sideways! Whatever the official asks you, you can answer!" Perhaps because he entered the imperial city, the imperial envoy did not dare to speak loudly, and whispered to Wu Yi.
In fact, he had said similar words no less than three times, but he was still worried. If Wu Yi and the other two made mistakes in their pre-holy memorials and left a handle, he would also have to take responsibility. That is, people like Wu Yi who made their first memorials needed to be said a few more times, and others did not even need to be reminded.
Wu Yi and Gu Qingyue nodded and agreed.
This imperial city was blocked by towering walls. Many places were not necessarily exposed to the sun all year round, which made it feel a bit gloomy. There were flat and solid white stones underfoot. From a distance, it seemed that the ground was covered with jade. Because they were not allowed to ride horses, they really ran to the mountain and died. They walked for almost half an hour before they reached the waiting gate.
The team here almost formed a long dragon. Roughly speaking, there were no less than fifty people.
This was the daily life of the Emperor of Shenzhou. In addition to the morning court and reading memorials, he also needed to meet forty or fifty people every day.
Among them, many people were like Wu Yi. After making outstanding contributions, they traveled thousands or even tens of thousands of miles to the capital to meet the emperor.
For many people, this is a rare highlight in their lives. This experience can be written in the local chronicles and passed down to future generations.
But the real fact is that many of them may not even last three minutes before they have to change people.
There are so many people waiting, why should you take up so much time.
After leading Wu Yi and the other two to the waiting gate, the imperial envoy left, and his mission ended here. Wu Yi looked around, there were people in military uniforms and people in wide robes (i.e. civil officials), the two sides were clearly divided, and they were not even willing to talk to each other.
At this moment, Wu Yi was also in military uniform. He had no merit and started his career with military merit. At this moment, Wu Yi naturally wore military uniform.
Specifically, he wore a shiny iron hat, a cloud-like colorful headband, a black and golden oil, a jade belt with eight treasures, a black silk robe like splashed ink, and a pair of suede boots.
There was originally a precious carved bow with a magpie pattern, a chisel arrow with a pot point, and two water-grinded whips, but these weapons were removed before entering the city.
No matter how you think, it is impossible for you to bring weapons to the emperor.
It is ridiculous to say that this set of clothes was given to me by Zhang Tianwen before I left. It is a treasure he treasured. If I don’t have ten thousand taels of silver, I am afraid I can’t do it.
On the battlefield, wearing this is to seek death, especially when you are charging into battle. It is so conspicuous that the enemy’s archers think that they have not made enough military achievements!
This thing is too expensive. Wu Yi wanted to refuse it, but the imperial envoy said it was okay, so Wu Yi shamelessly brought it and treasured it all the way.
It was not until before entering Zhongdu that he put it on. Just putting on this set took Wu Yi a lot of effort. He couldn’t put it on without the help of three or two people.
Judging from his appearance, Wu Yi looked like a son of a general, who came here to seek the protection of the court. I don't know if it was because of this reason, other people didn't dare to approach Wu Yi to talk, but just looked at Wu Yi from a distance, with envy, but envy, and jealousy.
Wu Yi was left alone, and didn't want to socialize with these people anyway. He found a place alone and sat on the ground, looking at the sky leisurely. If he could pick a dogtail grass at this moment, it would be even better.
Wu Yi was despised by others. He was indeed a dandy boy who didn't care about etiquette at all.
Gu Qingyue was dressed in gorgeous clothes, her hair was full of gorgeous decorations, and her clothes were full of colorful colors, dazzling, like the queen of thousands of butterflies. At this moment, it was naturally impossible for her to be as vulgar as Wu Yi, standing proudly and waiting silently.
She was born in a marquis family and had been taught good family rules since childhood. Seeing Wu Yi acting like this, she naturally looked down on Wu Yi from the bottom of her heart. The class difference was obvious.
It's strange to say that the deeper he went into the imperial city, the more balanced and relaxed Wu Yi's mentality became, as if he had returned to his own home. It was strange and inexplicable. Otherwise, even if Wu Yi didn't know what was going on, he wouldn't be so bold to sit astride in the imperial city.
Half an hour passed, and it was the time of sunset, that is, Weishi, which is equivalent to 13:00 to 15:00.
News came from inside that the official had finished reading the memorial and was summoning everyone to come in! Others hurriedly looked in from outside the waiting door, stretching their necks as much as possible, as if the longer their necks were, the more they could call themselves.
Wu Yi stretched his waist and didn't care about these. Others came early in the morning, and he could be said to be the last batch to arrive. How could it be his turn so soon?
Gu Qingyue pushed Wu Yi and whispered: "You will implicate me if you do this!"
"Don't worry, don't worry, it's still slow! When the time comes, I will get up naturally. Now, let me take a nap!" After saying that, Wu Yi yawned and actually fell asleep.
Gu Qingyue was so angry that she kicked Wu Yi several times. She didn't know whether he was really asleep or pretending. She could only sulk by herself. This man was well-behaved before, but now he seemed like a different person.
