The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 628
There are tall buildings in Gusu.

Outside the city is Hanshan Temple, which has been famous for a long time and was very prosperous for a while, but now it is declining like Shaolin.

In the center of the inner city, there is the Zixuan Palace Group, which is the office of the heads of the three divisions of one state and symbolizes the majesty of the emperor.

In the northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest of the temple complex, there are towers for the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter that can also be used as lighthouses and watchtowers.

On the street market in the outer city, there are "double cranes" standing on the flock of chickens.

Among them, the Songhe Tower with a height of ten feet and a total of seven floors is the tallest building.

The Wanhe Tower, which is eight feet high and has five stories in total, is next.

Of course, no matter how tall the buildings in the outer city are, they must be lower than the tall buildings in the inner city.

Although there are only a lot of speeches about the importance of the people and the despise of the monarch throughout the ages, at least in terms of architecture, the official ones have always been more glorious, and they will never be inferior in height. status.

Before Jiang Yichen and Leng Mei parted ways, the other party mentioned something about his brother.

Speaking of Fir Shan, she goes south to Gusu every year in early June and stays in Songhe Tower for more than ten days.

It's just that it's mid-July now, and since Fir Shan has not returned to Beijing, it remains to be confirmed whether she will stay in Songhe Tower.

Fortunately, after Jiang Yichen woke up full of energy, Shen Xinling gave him an affirmative answer.

Under the blue sky and white sun, Jiang Yichen made some hands and feet on his face, changed into a set of white clothes that are as bright as the dust, and pretended to be a son of a famous family but went out in a low-key way, and joined the crowd on the street.

……

……

If you climb to the top of Zixuan Hall or Four Seasons Tower, you can overlook everything in Gusu.

Then come to the top floor of Songhe Tower, and you can enjoy most of the magnificent scenery of Gusu.

It's just that Zixuan Hall and Four Seasons Pagoda are important places for officials, and not anyone can come in and out at will.

As for Songhe Tower, as long as you have enough money and dress up decently enough, you can experience the feeling of "seeing all the mountains and small things at a glance" at any time.

In the final analysis, Songhe Tower is still the way of yellow and white things.

But every expense in Songhe Tower will make you feel worthwhile.

Unlike Songhe Tower, which integrates restaurants, inns, and viewing services, Wanhe Tower, which is slightly lower in height but larger in scale, is a pure restaurant.

And the price is affordable and close to the people. It is a place where people of all ranks and grades can gather together.

When Jiang Yichen first arrived in Gusu City, he went to Wanhe Tower to taste local delicacies.

It's not that Jiang Yichen doesn't want to go to Songhelou, it's just that Songhelou is famous for its exquisite food, and he, a young man with no money, can't afford it.

This time, Jiang Yichen was still not a wealthy young man with a lot of money, so naturally he didn't think about spending a penny out of it.

This attire and the silver bills that Shen Xinling gave him to stuff his purse were all superficial, just in case.

It wasn't that Jiang Yichen was stingy, but that he felt there was no need to waste the money.

To put it bluntly, he didn't come to Songhe Tower to spend money to enjoy the food, he just came to find someone.

And still looking for it secretly.

……

……

The main building of Songhe is a tower building.

There are corridors above the first floor.

You can watch the scenery through the window while dining, or walk along the corridor to enjoy the bustling scene of Suzhou.

Although the seventh floor is named "Longevity Hall", it means "like a pine evergreen, like a crane adding longevity".

But it was jokingly called "Thousands of Gold Hall".

That is to say, if you want to stay on the seventh floor, you need a thousand taels of silver for the daily basic expenses.

It also means that those who can get these silver taels to come here are all rich and wealthy.

Even so, the top floor of Songhe Tower has at least 350 days of no shortage of customers in a year.

In the recent days, many high-rollers who wanted to spend a lot of money in Changshou Hall couldn't ask for it.

They even spared no expense to queue up to reserve the share for more than ten days, which shows that the business is booming.

It was rumored that the Longevity Hall had been rounded up by a mysterious person in the past half month.

Ordinary people, of course, do not know the name of this mysterious person, so they can only use their imaginations to make various guesses.

To let them know that the person living in the middle is an official, they have to complain a few gossip about being an official after dinner.

Even if the official is someone's elder brother, Jiang Yichen could not help but secretly slander him.

……

……

At the beginning of time.

Pine Crane Tower.

Longevity Hall.

Windows on all sides.

Sunlight penetrates from the east.

Changfeng blows through the hall from north to south.

A Confucian scholar from Qingshan sits on the west side of the hall drinking tea and playing chess.

What I tasted was Xinyang Qiu Maojian, which was brought by others as a filial piety yesterday.

What was played was a chess game related to the overall situation of Zhongzhou.

Yes, even if there is only one person, Qingshan Confucian scholars are very cautious every time they make a move.

On the chessboard, the black chess is on the rise, and the white chess is gradually encircling.

White's next counterattack position selection is extremely important.

Fir Shan twists the white chess piece, leans forward continuously from a sitting posture, until it turns into a contemplative posture with both hands and elbows on the legs and the back of the hands resting on the chin.

While hesitating, his brows suddenly raised.

Sitting up again, he spoke as if no one else was around.

"I thought Han Wuyue was the only one who could walk within [-] steps of me quietly in this world."

"If you're not Han Wuyue, you can only be that brat."

"It's really scary for young people, come in."

Fir, of course, is not talking to himself.

Just when Leng Shan tapped the coffee table with the white stone in his hand, there was already another person ten feet away in front of him.

Leng Shan said gently to the white-clothed young man who was unaware of ghosts and ghosts before he appeared, but couldn't hide his restrained attitude after entering the house, and said gently: "Sit."

Jiang Yichen sat down obediently, not to mention what the old man and Luo Piaoling had explained, but there was nothing left of the drafts of how to word words that he had planned before meeting, and there was only a blank in his mind.

How could Leng Shan not see Jiang Yichen's embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Do I look so scary?"

Jiang Yichen quickly shook his head, although it was a long time since he first met someone, that appearance was not deeply engraved in Jiang Yichen's heart, but it was still lingering in his mind for a long time, and it was indeed somewhat similar to the person in front of him.

Leng Shan said again: "Is it because my official authority is full and I am too domineering?"

Jiang Yichen still shook his head, someone's elder brother is really very amiable, comparable to Luo Piaoling, who appears to be harmless to humans and animals.

Leng Shan frowned, and said with a serious face: "Then it must be because of my high skill, even if I didn't deliberately release the machine, the domineering coercion still overwhelms you, and you dare not speak."

Jiang Yichen's head was as thick as a rattle, but he still didn't say a word.

Leng Shan was surprised that this guy didn't understand his teasing words, so he laughed angrily, and slapped the chess piece on the table.

"Then, you should introduce yourself and why you are here!"

Jiang Yichen was slightly startled, woke up like a dream, clasped his fists and faltered and said: "I'm moral, uh, Tingyu Pavilion, Jiang, Jiang Yichen."

"Here, I'm here to ask Mr. Leng for advice, and I hope Mr. Leng can help me."

Fir Shan was a little surprised when he heard the words, but not too surprised.

Jiang Yichen, who had finally regained his composure, slowly came to his senses.

While running through the few words Leng Shan said in his mind, he looked at the other party's expression calmly.

Jiang Yichen first felt that Governor Leng was indeed a person who had lived in the palace for a long time.

Not to mention other skills, but being able to perceive the slightest movement from a distance, the ability to avoid danger must not be bad.

The second is to confirm that Leng Shilang has expected his arrival, but there is a deviation in his judgment of his coming.

However, no matter how much the little fox pretends to be indifferent, the experienced old fox has already seen through everything.

Just throwing out a sentence lightly, let the little fox's vigilant camouflage fail again.

"Mr. Leng? What a gentleman, I thought you came here specially to see my uncle, so why should you call out brother!?"
