952 Entering the Capital for the First Time

Gu Xiaowan did not intervene in the management of the store in the capital, Qin Yezhi was always in charge.

Moreover, Li Fan is a veteran of opening a shop, and Gu Xiaowan is also very relieved to let him go to decorate the shop.

A letter from the capital said that the shop had been renovated, and it was planned to open on an auspicious day. Gu Xiaowan and the others brought the puppets, embroidered handkerchiefs, and other items such as insoles and embroidered pieces during this time. Pillowcases and some embroidery samples are all packed and ready to be sent to the capital immediately.

Gu Xiaowan had never been to the capital, and the carriage took ten days and a half to go all the way. Gu Xiaowan did not take Gu Ningping and Gu Xiaoyi with her. Although the two of them really wanted to go, they knew the distance was long. The road is bumpy, if they want to go, it will only cause trouble to their sister.

Therefore, in the list of people who went to the capital this time, there were only Qin Yezhi, Gu Xiaowan and Shitou.

Ah Mo knew martial arts, but Gu Xiaowan didn't let him follow him all the way, for fear that something would happen to Gu Yuan at that time, and there was no one around who knew martial arts.

A group of three people set out on the road after the family's thousands of instructions.

This time the carriage was drawn by three sturdy tall horses.

This carriage was newly purchased by Qin Yezhi.

The journey from Liujiazhen to the capital is a long way. It will take ten days and a half for a bare carriage. The journey will be bumpy. If you don't prepare a better carriage, Gu Xiaowan may not be able to stand the journey at all. hardships.

Qin Yezhi thought it thoughtfully before, but Gu Xiaowan also realized the role of this good carriage on the third day.

The carriage was covered with a thick layer of carpet, and there were several quilts with thick cushions on top of them, so I didn't feel that the road was bumpy.

Moreover, there are many other small things in the carriage.

For example, there are tea-boilers, snacks, and books, just to have something on the road to pass the time.

This trip took the carriage for eleven days.

In order to catch up with the auspicious time that Li Fan said, Gu Xiaowan and the others rushed non-stop, for fear of the wrong auspicious time.

However, Li Fan also reserved a lot of time for them. Gu Xiaowan just wanted to go to the capital early to see the prosperity of the capital, and wanted to have a look as soon as possible.

It was also the first time for Shi Shi to go to the capital. The prosperous capital had never been mentioned by others.

This time, knowing that he has to go to the prosperous capital, Shi Shi is also very excited, the carriage naturally rushes fast, and he wants to go to the capital as soon as possible!

The only one who is very calm is Qin Yezhi. He grew up in the capital since he was a child, and he knows every inch and every part of the capital.

However, because Gu Xiaowan was very excited, Qin Yezhi also pretended to be looking forward to seeing the prosperity and prosperity of the capital.

The carriage had been running for more than ten days, and Gu Xiaowan almost vomited in the carriage.

The transportation in ancient times was inconvenient. If it was left in the past, a high-speed rail trip would not have taken you to the capital in five hours.

Where do I use it now? After swaying around for more than ten days, I feel sick to my stomach when I think about it.

However, soon, the prosperity of the capital immediately suppressed the discomfort in her heart.

The three thousand prosperous capitals have always been at the feet of the emperor, and the prosperity here is really breathtaking.

Gu Xiaowan used to work in the capital. Every day, buses pass through Tiananmen Square in Beijing. The majestic Tiananmen Square always gives people a solemn feeling.

At this moment, she was standing on the mountain, looking at the high wall and deep courtyard, and there was some kind of lament in her heart.

The ancient monarchy and palace system were cruel.

As the saying goes, once the gate of the palace is as deep as the sea, Xiao Lang is a passerby from then on.

Such a high-walled and deep courtyard, how many people are looking forward to it inside, eagerly looking forward to jumping out of that cage and going to this free place outside.

But at this end of the wall, there are also many people who stretched their necks and looked in, wanting to enter this prosperous palace, to fantasize about the extravagant hope of being favored by the king and adding wealth and glory.

Seeing that Gu Xiaowan was a little sad, Qin Yezhi asked, "What's wrong, Wan'er?"

Gu Xiaowan smiled, pointed to the distant palace, and said, "Brother Yizhi, do you think the emperor really has seventy-two concubines in three palaces, six courtyards, and three thousand harem beauties? Is he busy here?"

Hearing Gu Xiaowan say such words, Qin Yezhi burst out and laughed.

He really hadn't asked this question in detail.

All I know is that when I enter the palace every day, except for a few eunuchs beside the emperor, it seems that no matter where I go, the one I see the most is the palace maid.

All the women in this palace, from the empress to the maids, are the emperor's women. If you count the maids, there may be three thousand harem beauties.

But are these seventy-two concubines?

It seems that so far, apart from having a childhood sweetheart queen and a little noble concubine, the little emperor has no concubine, right?

Qin Yezhi smiled charmingly, but Gu Xiaowan was startled again.

"What on earth are you thinking about in your little head?" Qin Yezhi laughed and scolded a little angrily: "How can we manage the emperor's affairs? Even if he has three thousand beauties and is busy or not, it is him. He wants so much, who would dare not give it to him in this world?"

Indeed it is!

Gu Xiaowan also smiled: "I'm just curious! People say that the emperor is the most honorable but also the loneliest person in the world. There are so many people around him.

Women, are they used to relieve loneliness? "

Qin Yezhi didn't expect Gu Xiaowan to say this, and asked with a smile, "The emperor is the most honorable person in the world, and I agree, but why do you say he is the loneliest person in the world?" Come and listen?"

"Think about it, the heights are very cold, the emperor is sitting in such a high position, in this world, apart from him, I am afraid that no one can match him! This has also caused him to treat the people and things around him. If it doesn't look real, what he sees may be an illusion." Gu Xiaowan sighed as she looked at the towering city wall at the foot of the mountain.
