Finally, after nearly half a month of trekking, Ye Li and Bian Yingxiong finally arrived in Tang Jingcheng.
The city where the Emperor of Tang lived was indeed extremely majestic.
The city's walls are thicker than Jinzhou City, and its size far exceeds all the big cities Ye Li has seen, including Imperial City and Paradise City.
The city wall, which is more than 80 meters high, looks like a mountain and looks extremely majestic.
"Ye Li, this is Tang Jingcheng.
How about it?
Isn't it very spectacular?"
Along the way, Bian Yingxiong and Ye Li also became familiar with each other, and their names were also changed.
Bian Yingxiong now calls Ye Li directly by his name, and Ye Li also calls Bian Yingxiong Uncle Bian.
"It is truly spectacular.
I have never seen such a magnificent city before."
Ye Li said with great emotion.
In Tang Jing City, except for delivering official documents or the royal horses can run freely, other horses and carriages are not allowed inside, so the two of them could only get off the carriage at the city gate and walk into the city.
A young man wearing brocade clothes and jade robes nearby, after hearing Ye Li's praise, turned his head and glanced at him, muttering "bumpkin" in a low voice.
Ye Li didn't get angry when he heard the people next to him ridiculing him.
He just glanced sideways at the other person.
This young man has a rather distinctive appearance, with a protruding forehead and a nose pointing upward, which makes him look a bit ugly no matter how he looks at it.
"snort" When the young master saw Ye Li looking at him, he immediately snorted disdainfully, turned his head away, and accelerated towards the other direction.
Ye Li reached out and touched his nose gently, and said to himself: "I look like I have never seen the world."
Bian Yingxiong just heard the young master's sarcasm towards Ye Li, and he could only smile helplessly and said: "Ye Li, Tang Jing city is full of powerful people's mansions, and any official who comes out will have a higher position than me.
The young master just now, I don’t know which family he is from, has a somewhat arrogant look, which is normal.
Not to mention you who have been living in seclusion all year round, they also look down upon me, a court official from out of town.
In the eyes of these young masters, the vendors in Tang Jing City are much nobler than us country folk from other places. " "Hey, aren't we wrong to think so?
You are an old hat from the frontier, aren't you just a lowly outsider?"
While Bian Yingxiong was talking to Ye Li, a sturdy middle-aged man walked over from the side and looked at Bian Yingxiong with a mocking expression.
The moment Bian Yingxiong saw the other party, his eyes froze, as if he recognized the other party's identity.
"I asked who it was, it turned out to be you, Yue Longxiang.
Even though I come from the frontier, my identity is an important frontier minister and an official of the imperial court, the same as your father.
You, the son of a concubine from the Yue family, are just ordinary people, so what right do you have to look down on me?"
After Bian Yingxiong recognized the other party, a sarcastic look appeared on his face and he retorted.
When the other party heard Bian Yingxiong's specially emphasized words "son of a concubine", a look of anger immediately appeared on his face.
"Bian Yingxiong, don't be too proud.
You were guarding the border and were far away from the center of the vortex, so you were able to avoid a lot of disasters.
Now that I heard that you will be promoted back, you will definitely be sucked into the whirlpool.
I want to see how you can cope with it. " After Yue Longxiang finished speaking, he turned around and left without waiting for Bian Yingxiong to speak, with a mocking look on his face as he left.
Watching the other party leave, Bian Yingxiong frowned slightly, with a worried look in his eyes.
"Uncle Bian, what's wrong with you?
Who is this guy?"
Ye Li asked.
Bian Yingxiong took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and said: "This guy's name is Yue Longxiang, his father Yue Leichi is from the Ministry of War, and I am an old acquaintance.
After Yue Leichi defected to the eldest prince, his official position rose faster and faster.
It is said that he is expected to be promoted to the leader of the Second Department of the Zhenzhong Army by the end of this year.
The Zhenzhong Army is a force directly under His Majesty the Emperor.
Anyone who can hold an official position in it is considered a person trusted by His Majesty the Emperor, and will hopefully become a high-ranking member of the Ministry of War in the future.
This Yue Longxiang, before his father joined the eldest prince and became successful, had always suppressed his identity and called me Uncle Bian.

Unexpectedly, when we met now, he was sarcastic and sarcastic.
It was really disgusting. " Ye Li didn't know much about the official positions here, and he didn't quite understand the meaning of these official positions, but he could understand Bian Yingxiong's unhappiness.
He looked at Bian Yingxiong, smiled, and said, "Uncle Bian, I think it's disgusting for a guy like this to call you uncle.
Fortunately, he doesn't call you Uncle Bian anymore, otherwise I will call you by another name soon, so as not to end up with that kind of thing. " Listening to Ye Li's teasing, Bian Yingxiong's unhappiness mostly dissipated and he said: "Well, you're right, now that I think about it, it would be really disgusting if he calls me uncle again.
Okay, Ye Li, let's not delay and go to the palace in the inner city to report.
This is a place of disputes.
If the eldest prince's people find out that we haven't reported to the palace for a long time after arriving in Tang Jingcheng, they may find an excuse to read our book, which will make me feel sick again. " After Bian Yingxiong finished speaking, he took the first step and led Ye Li towards the center of the city.
As Ye Li followed Bian Yingxiong towards the palace, he kept looking around.
The streets here looked very wide and neat, and the square buildings everywhere made it easy to distinguish the direction.
Both sides of the broad street are lined with magnificent shops, and the pedestrians are very dense, making it very lively.
Bian Yingxiong led Ye Li through the main road in the middle of the city, and soon arrived at the gate of the inner city.
The entire inner city here belonged to the palace.
Bian Yingxiong took out an edict from his body and handed it to the guard guarding the palace gate.
After checking the edict, the other party looked at the two people again, and then allowed them to enter the palace.
Bian Yingxiong said: "Ye Li, my name is the only one on my edict.
You are not qualified to enter the palace, but I just told the guards that you are my retainer guard, so you can follow me into the inner city.
However, he did not have the right to enter the palace and could only wait outside the palace.
I will first enter the palace to apply for an interview.
According to general circumstances, it is impossible for His Majesty to summon us right away, so I will just go through the formalities to report that I have arrived.
As for the specific time to meet with His Majesty, that will be We will wait for further notification.
You wait for me outside the palace later.
I will come out as soon as I go in.
Then we can go to the harem to meet the second prince and ask him to accept you as a guest.
I have the token he gave me, so I can enter and leave his residence directly
