Chapter 148 Entering Fengdu City



Chapter 148 Entering Fengdu City

Su Yueyao stretched her head and looked towards the city gate. There were soldiers guarding the gate. There were civilians queuing on both sides, and some were waiting for carriages. They should be led by Cui Yiyang, so they probably cut in line.

It's the same everywhere. If you have power, everything will be convenient.

The carriage entered the city smoothly without even a basic identity check. When the carriage reached the city gate, Su Yueyao saw a soldier standing by holding a man's identity card. After careful checking, the man handed the soldier a copper coin before letting the man into the city. It seemed that the check was quite strict.

"What are you looking at, Ayao? You're so focused."

"I see that soldier is checking so carefully. If we let the deputy commander lead, it will save us a lot of trouble."

"Deputy Commander Cui is the closest minister to His Majesty in Fengdu. He has the power to confiscate the property first and then report to His Majesty. I'm afraid no one dares to investigate the people he leads. The key is that our group can save money on entering the city." Yang Qianxun said.

Su Yueyao took a deep breath when she heard this. Fortunately, she did not offend him at the post station, otherwise, he would say something in front of Her Majesty the Queen and she would be in big trouble.

"Do I need to pay money to enter the city?"

"Yes! The entrance fee to Fengdu is quite expensive. It costs 20 copper coins for a man and 10 copper coins for a woman. You need to have a household registration and a pass issued by the household registration office. If you don't have these, you are considered a refugee. If you find a man, he will be sent to the army, and a woman will be sent to the women's building."

"Ayao, look, we have more than a dozen servants with us. Can't this save us money?" Yang Qianxun said with a smile.

"..."

"Is this entrance fee to prevent the people from flocking into Fengdu?"

This amount of money may be a lot for common people, but it is actually nothing for the wealthy families in Fengdu. The only purpose is to prevent common people from coming.

"I guess so! Fengdu is the capital of His Majesty after all. If we don't enforce strict rules, there will be chaos."

"All right!"

She is still thinking about how to gain a foothold in this prosperous Fengdu, protect Yang Qian and them, and hide in the backyard to lie dead! Although it is difficult, she firmly believes that it can be done if she has an idea.

"Lady Su, we have entered Fengdu City. I still have to go to the palace to report to His Majesty. My subordinates will take you to the house at the front alley." Cui Yiyang said.

"Thank you, Deputy Commander, for your escort along the way. Please tell His Majesty that Su Yueyao will come to the palace to express her gratitude early tomorrow morning." Su Yueyao said to Cui Yiyang.

"Okay, I'll take my leave."

After that, Cui Yiyang left on horseback, and the carriage headed towards the front alley.

"Qianqian, Fengdu is indeed very prosperous." Su Yueyao saw shops with open doors, people coming and going, and horse-drawn carriages everywhere on the streets.

I didn’t expect that the streets in Fengdu were so wide that two medium-sized carriages could pass side by side.

"Ayao, this is the official road, it's not bad. The alleys in the north of the city are more lively. I remember when my sister and I went out for the first time when we were young, we went to the alleys in the north of the city. Sometimes there would be fireworks at night, and there would be performances by craftsmen, etc."

"Really? Then let's go for a walk together when we have time." Su Yueyao said with a smile.

"The front alley where we live is not far from the north of the city. We can walk there, but most of the alleys in the north of the city are not official roads, so carriages cannot enter."

"Is there any difference between the official road and ordinary roads?" Su Yueyao asked curiously.

"The official road was built by the court, and His Majesty always takes the official road when leaving the palace. If we want to travel by carriage, we can only take the official road in Fengdu." Yang Qianxun explained.

"Okay! I was just wondering why this road is so wide!"

It turns out that this road was specially built for Your Majesty’s convenience in traveling!

When they arrived at the house at the entrance of the alley, Su Yueyao got off the carriage and found that the plaque on the door had been changed to "Su Mansion". There was a wide road outside the gate and there seemed to be a house opposite, but she could not see clearly the name written on the plaque.

Kasuga went forward and knocked on the door. After a while, the person inside saw Kasuga and immediately opened the door. After a while, more than a dozen servants came out and knelt on the ground.

"I greet the Lady, the Master, and the Concubines."

When Su Yueyao saw them, she recognized some of them, after all, they were transferred from Yi County, but she didn't recognize some of them.

"Everyone get up!"

"Thank you, Lady."

"Ayao, let's go in!" Yang Qianxun said with a smile.

"it is good."

After Su Yueyao entered, she found that most of the scenery here was renovated according to her preferences.

"Do you like it? My Lord and I have modified it in advance according to your preferences. The paths in the courtyard are paved with bluestone bricks. This way, when it rains, you don't have to worry about getting muddy when you walk."

"And didn't my wife think that the drainage in the yard we lived in before was not very good? We specially hired a craftsman to dig two more drainage channels here."

"And my wife, we specially had a few big trees planted in the front and back yards, and there are soft beds under the trees for resting! This way, my wife can lie down and rest whenever she wants, without having Haruhi and the others carry the soft beds back and forth."

"We have also built a small river in the backyard, and put a lot of small fish in it. My wife likes fishing and can go there anytime. We also built a pavilion over there, which is connected to the corridor outside the house. When it rains or snows, we can enjoy the scenery here." Lu Yuanjin said with a smile, pointing to the scenery in front.

"When will you send someone to repair it? It can't be repaired in a short time!" Su Yueyao said with some emotion.

This kind of favor that was put in someone's heart! She really liked it.

"After Yuan Jin and I married you, and the daughter and son of the Lu family left Yi County, we discussed with the master and thought that the wife might come to Fengdu, so we planned to make arrangements in advance, but we didn't send anyone over at that time. After the daughter of the Yang family in Fengdu came, we sent people over. The master drew the renovation plan himself, and Yuan Jin and I added some more."

"Fortunately, the scenery of this yard was already good, so it wasn't very troublesome for us to make the changes." Lu Yuanyi explained with a smile.

"Ayao, do you like it?" Yang Qianxun said with a smile.

"I like it, I like it very much, thank you." Su Yueyao immediately hugged him and said.

Then he hugged Lu Yuanyi and Lu Yuanjin.

"As long as my wife likes it, it's fine. If she doesn't like it, we'll make some changes."

"Ayao, what Cejun said is right. As long as you like it, don't wrong yourself."

When Su Yueyao heard their words, her eyes suddenly became moist. No one had ever said to her before: as long as you like it, don't force yourself.

She used to be wronged, but she was always asked to do it, that was what she should do, it was what she should do…

"My dear wife, are you moved by us? Are you about to cry?" Lu Yuanjin's enlarged handsome face suddenly appeared in front of her. Su Yueyao was choked for a moment, and the trace of sadness she had just felt was wiped away by him.

"Yes! I am very touched." Su Yueyao said and then pinched Lu Yuanjin's face.

"My dear wife, please be gentle, be gentle. Your face will turn red if you pinch it. How will you face people?" Lu Yuanjin shouted.

"Just shut up. If you yell again, I'll pinch you harder."

"My wife..."

When Su Yueyao heard Lu Yuanjin's pitiful tone, her heart softened. After he broke free from her, Su Yueyao hurriedly chased after him.

"You still dare to run, Lu Yuanjin, stop right there."

"No, my face can't get red anymore."
