Chapter 978: Ninety-Nine-Six: Lively

As soon as she entered the carriage and made sure that outsiders couldn't see her, the solemnity on the face of the Empress Dowager immediately disappeared, and a smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth, and the smile became thicker and thicker. The dignified Daming Shoufu came to greet her in person, which she did not expect, which also made her feel the sincerity and attention of Daming.

"It turns out that the emperor and officials of your Han family value my Chahar Department so much, since this is the case, it will be much easier to act in the future." She muttered to herself.

After a while, she lifted the curtain and looked at the scene outside, and when she saw the appearance of those Han generals, at first glance, she was immediately shocked, and said in her heart that these forbidden troops in the capital of the Ming Dynasty were really majestic. But after taking a closer look, the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked slightly, revealing a disdainful smile.

She is also a person who is very familiar with military affairs, and she can see at this time that these people are all good-looking goods, and they are just good-looking.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered that Dong Ce was coming, and said softly: "If there is really a war, it depends on those people under you." ”

Soon, he arrived in the capital and entered the city gate.

As soon as you enter the city gates, there is an endless hustle and bustle.

The wide street was crowded with people on both sides, and everyone was looking at this side with their feet crossed, and the noise shook the sky, and countless kinds of voices converged together, converging into a huge wave of sound, and smashed into everyone's ears, and suddenly, nothing could be heard in the ears except this noise.

There were people on both sides of the street, and even on the roofs of the shops on both sides of the street, there were many people on the roofs, and there were also many people standing on the big trees on the side of the street. And the restaurant, teahouse, and brothel on the street are making a fortune at this time, and if you want to stay on the second and third floors, you have to get an extra piece of silver.

But even so, the people above were still crowded, and everyone was huddled around the window and looked out.

Countless people want to take a look at the big scene that they haven't seen in more than ten years!

What a lot of excitement this is! Look at this time, there will be boasting for many years to come!

The officials of the Shuntian Mansion stood on the side of the street, pushing and shoving the people who kept moving forward, preventing them from rushing to the center of the street. I've got to leave a way for the team to pass!

Fortunately, the streets of Beijing are relatively wide, and they were built very magnificently when they were built, and they are not small when they are set aside.

As soon as she entered the city, the Empress Dowager felt the endless noise rush into her ears, making her head a little dazed. She quietly lifted the curtain and looked out, and immediately gasped!

Oh, my God! This is the Ming Dynasty, is this the capital of the Ming Dynasty?

In her life, she had never seen such a prosperous scene, never seen such a lively street, never seen such a wide and straight street, never seen so many tall buildings that stretched out to the end of the eye, and never seen so many people!

She finally had a preliminary impression of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.

Not only her, but all the Fujin, all the nobles of the Chahar Ministry, and even all the people from the Chahar Ministry, were shocked.

And their shock has only just begun.

The team continued to move forward amid the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, and after an hour, they finally arrived at the Huitong Hall.

This way, they have walked a considerable distance, and the people of the Chahar Department can be regarded as walking half of Beijing City. They finally got to see the scenery of Beijing, one of the greatest cities of this era, and many people were shocked and speechless.

Big, too big!

Prosperous, too prosperous!

Before they went to Dacaotan, many people lived in Guihua City, and in their impressions, Guihua City was already an extremely majestic and magnificent city. And now, they found that Guihua City is not even as big as a corner of Beijing, and in terms of prosperity, it is even less than a percent of Beijing City.

In fact, the Huitong Hall is not a separate yamen, but is subordinate to the Ministry of War, and it should be called the 'Huitong Hall of the Military Department'.

In addition to the function of receiving foreign tributes, the Huitong Hall will also receive some official documents from the Ministry of War. The office of the Huitong Pavilion is located in the Yamen of the Ministry of War, but the building used by the Huitong Pavilion to entertain foreign envoys and accommodate them is not there, but in Daxing County, Shuntianfu, also known as the Northern Huitong Pavilion.

When they arrived at the land, all the nobles dismounted or got off the carriage, and were led to settle down first.

The hall has also been renovated, spending a lot of silver, inside and outside are new, and it is also magnificent.

The nobles have divided their accommodations, and they are also very particular, and the entourage has brought a lot of luggage, and after settling everything properly, it is already noon.

Then the officials in charge of the museum sent exquisite dim sum dishes to everyone, so that everyone could fill their stomachs first.

The dinner was to be eaten in the Forbidden City.

His Majesty the Emperor is going to give a feast.

In the evening, the Empress Dowager and other nobles from the Chahar Department sorted out their descriptions and came to the Forbidden City accompanied by officials of the Ministry of Rites.

The Forbidden City bathed in the golden sunlight in the evening is tall and majestic, magnificent to the extreme, and countless golden and cyan glazed tiles glow with charming light, making the Forbidden City at this time like a heavenly palace shrouded in divine light.

When stepping into the square in front of the three major halls, seeing the tall white marble pedestal, and seeing the majestic and magnificent hall, the Empress Dowager and others couldn't help but let out a burst of undisguised exclamation and admiration.

They were really shocked, it was the first time in their lives that they had seen such a magnificent building, so shocking to their hearts, that they were speechless for a long time. There is also a palace in the Naturalization City, but compared to the palace in front of him, it is too simple.

A few elderly officials on the side stroked their beards and smiled on their faces. The expressions on the faces of the Empress Dowager and the others were very familiar to them, and the envoys and even kings of the small vassal countries they had received before, when they saw the Forbidden City for the first time, they were almost like this, or even worse than this, and there were quite a few people who lost their temper.

But it's a pity that they haven't had a chance to see this scene for a long time, and today, finally, again.

After a long while, the Ministry of Rites Shang Shu Fang coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Several, let's go in!" ”

The Empress Dowager and the others came back to their senses, and they were a little embarrassed in their hearts, but the Empress Dowager was also bold and fierce, and she would say whatever she wanted, bowed her head slightly, and exclaimed: "The Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty, I have long longed for it, and when I see it today, I have no regrets in this life!" ”

This is her sincere words, nothing false compliments, just the truth at this moment. When this shocking energy passes, it is estimated that I will not really feel that I will have no regrets in this life if I can see the Forbidden City.

Then he entered the palace to meet Emperor Chongzhen.

It's all some extremely cumbersome etiquette, and the rest is lackluster, and the content of the play and speech at this time is all arranged in advance, but it is just a process to go through.
