Chapter 031 Imperial Dragon City (Part 2)
The reason why Rijkald built his capital here was probably because he was attracted by the natural geographical environment here.
com He built the imperial city in the inner circle of the word "hui", which made the empire's power center float on the water like an island. Then he connected the floating bridge with a large ship, divided into eight directions, connected to the outer city, and transported by land. Once there is a war, as long as you withdraw the floating bridge, you can no longer attack the inner city with ten times or twenty times of your troops.
"Did you see it? It's the Water Palace." Lildor pointed to the imperial city and said with great enthusiasm. Born as a native of Zhongzhou, he naturally chanted proudly when he saw the magnificent image in front of him: "The wind scattered and hibiscus water, and the dense rain slanted into the wall of the lychee. The trees on the ridge cover the eyes of thousands of miles, and the river flows like nine ileals."
Looking from here, the scenery is really beautiful, especially the inner city water palace, surrounded by water, magnificent, Hu You and others were all amazed.
At this time, Zhu Daneng hummed, "Do you want to hear a story about the water palace of the imperial capital?"
Hou San curled his lips and said, "Come on, Zhu Daneng. What story can you have? You are not from the imperial capital. If you want to say it, it should be said by Lare."
Hu You knew that Zhu Daneng looked rough and knew a lot of things in his stomach. So he said, "I want to hear any good stories. If it is exciting, I will cover the cost of everyone today."
"Yeah. OK."
"Zhu Daneng, tell me quickly."
"Speak more excitingly, otherwise I'll beat you up."
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Zhu Daneng slowly spoke: "Don't look at the majestic water palace. At the beginning, such a design was opposed by many imperial Feng Shui masters. Because from a perspective of nature, this is a situation where the dragon traps shallow water and the foundation is unstable. As the center of power of the empire, the imperial city, using such a design, would have a bad omen.
Some people in the military also raised objections. Because this layout seems perfect, but it is very dangerous in real time. Once the outer city falls into the hands of others, the water palace will be surrounded by the enemy. Once the eight floating bridges are broken, it will be easy to defend at that time, but it will be more difficult to attack than climb to the sky.
However, with the old emperor's cold snorting, the imperial Feng Shui masters and military officials all closed their mouths. In the Mandala Empire, Rijkald was a god. If he was unhappy, the consequences would be very serious. Dare to question his decision, dare to say that his country is unstable, dare to say that the emperor will fall into the hands of others, and the imperial city will be surrounded. Who is too hard to be able to do anything?
The old emperor had made up his mind and no one dared to say a word. The only thing they could do was to prevent these adverse factors from appearing as much as possible."
Speaking of this, Zhu Daneng looked at everyone, saw Hu You with deep thought, and then continued: "Do you know what methods they have used to prevent these unfavorable factors?"
"Send more heavy troops to strengthen city defense." Hu You said.
"The captain said it was good. The military did expand the Royal Cavalry regiment and allocated a lot of money to build six major cities to protect the imperial capital.
But there is one thing that I don’t think you can guess. When building the Water Palace, the imperial Feng Shui master secretly used the blood of 1,08 boys and women to build the foundation to break the "Dragon traps shallow water" situation.
Therefore, the inner city should not be called the Water Palace, but should be renamed the 'Blood Palace'."
"Absurd." Hu You cursed.
At the same time, another voice shouted: "Stop it! Zhu Daneng, aren't you afraid of losing your head?"
The sound of shouting came from Lare, a small man who used to speak as delicately as a woman, had a sense of power at this moment.
Hu You could even see murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
The atmosphere became cold for a while, but fortunately, the third came out to smooth things over.
"Okay, okay, it's just a story, look at your seriousness.
Didn’t we agree to go to the incense lamp of the goddess of the imperial capital? If we don’t hurry up, we will be able to snatch the beautiful ones.”
After Hou San's fight, although everyone did not start arguing in the end, after listening to this story, everyone was not in the mood to go to the brothel to have fun together.
Lare first suggested that he wanted to walk around himself, and Lildor followed him. Both of them were from Zhongzhou and had their own friends in the Emperor. They had mentioned before that they wanted to take the opportunity to go back and have a look, but Hu You pulled them out to play together. Now that the situation has become like this, Hu You can't stop them anymore, so he let them go.
After Lare and Lildor left, Hu You saw that everyone was having fun, and he was thinking about finding a blacksmith to process arrows, so he simply let everyone go and have fun.
As a result, the fewer and fewer people in their team went into the imperial capital Dragon City, Hu You became alone.
The outer city of the imperial capital Longcheng has nine gates, which means nine extreme numbers. Hu You entered the imperial capital from Andingmen to get the imperial capital. He had no idea about the prosperity here at all. He asked several people in a row and finally found the place where the blacksmith was.
The imperial capital was just a small town, and it was built after it was built. Due to the complex traffic in the old and new neighborhoods, Hu You came for the first time and was dizzy when he turned around and found the road to light.
Guangming Road is the title of the official family, and the people call it Dajin Street. Dajin Street, as the name suggests, is engaged in iron and knife making, gold and silver jewelry processing, and agricultural tools processing in the imperial capital. In short, all craftsmen who make a living by making a living by metal processing are all concentrated on this road.
Although Guangming Road is called road, it is actually a back street. To be precise, it is more appropriate to call it an alley. As soon as Hu You walked into the intersection, he knew that he had found the right place. The air here is obviously much hotter than other places, and the jingling iron sounds all illustrate the role here.
Hu You came here without any haste. Instead of taking out the drawings to find the blacksmith immediately, he walked slowly from the street to the end of the street, and looked at all the processing shops, paying special attention to the popularity of the store, the number of craftsmen and the size of the shop.
Hu You was determined to reject the stores with deserted fires, fires, too small, and simple conditions. In Hu You's opinion, there must be many people who come to him to process various things. Those stores with poor fires and are almost unsustainable and must have problems of one kind or another. A craftsman who has rusted even common tools cannot be a good craftsman. Although such judgments may not be accurate, they are definitely applicable to Hu You who is not familiar with them.
After screening, Hu You decided on two blacksmith shops and an jewelry processing shop in his heart, and then he took out the pictures on his body.
The two blacksmith shops disappointed Hu You. Their family couldn't understand what Hu You painted. Although the family understood it, they said they were unable to do it. After two consecutive encounters, Hu You had to come to this alternative jewelry processing shop to try their luck.
The name of this processing shop is Zangjinlou.
