The opening slave, the eldest lady fell in love with me at first sight

“Treadling…”

The horse convoy has been moving along the No. 1 Avenue of the imperial capital, and due to the dense flow of people, there is no way to ride a horse, so it can only move forward slowly, which is a little faster than ordinary people walking.

Unless the imperial army goes out to fight, or the military situation is urgent, the first street of the imperial capital is allowed to run fast.

Otherwise, the horse runner will be fined heavily.

The horse convoy walked for half an hour before reaching the gates of the inner city.

“The inner city of the imperial capital is not small, this length must be more than two thousand meters.” Qiao Ji estimated in his heart.

He looked at the walls of the inner city, which were about fifteen meters high and were all made of stone bricks.

“The walls are quite high.”

Qiao Ji sighed and asked sideways, “Uncle Feilin, how long did it take to build the city wall?” ”

“Why are you even curious about this?”

Feilin smiled dumbly, thought about it and said, “I think it should have taken less than ten years or so.” ”

He added, “The inner city used to be the outer city, and the current outer city was expanded later. ”

“It’s less than ten years.” Qiao Ji suddenly felt that there must be a lot of sweat and blood on the stone tiles on the city wall.

Such a wall made entirely of stone, he didn’t need to think about it to know what race was used, among which the giant race was essential.

Otherwise, huge stone bricks and stones carried by ordinary races alone would not require the participation of more than 100,000 people to be built within ten years.

How many slaves died in the first place, the numbers are cold.

Qiao Ji didn’t think about it anymore.

Out of the inner city, the outer city is another world.

Dirty is the first impression, followed by a smell.

The crowd increased by many sub-races, and the number of rich people dressed in bright clothes decreased by 50 percent.

The central street of the outer city is also No. 1 Street, but there are two more words, called No. 1 Street outside the imperial capital.

Walking on No. 1 Street outside the city, you will find that except for the shops on both sides of the street, which are a little better, the houses further away are all low thatched houses and mud brick houses.

When the convoy passed by the flow of people, the subhuman races avoided in advance and cast awe eyes.

But….

Qiao Ji found that there was more light in the eyes of these subhumans, as well as envy, jealousy and hatred.

Entering the outer city, Feilin and the others said less.

The knights became more vigilant, and the slightest person approached and flung a whip over.

The atmosphere is a little depressing, and the class difference is clearly reflected here.

Qiao Ji rode forward expressionlessly, feeling a lot in his heart, and suddenly felt that the life on earth was really good.

“Treadling…”

The horse convoy accelerated in the outer city, and also saw the gate of the outer city in about half an hour.

“The outer city is less said to be about 8 times larger than the inner city.” Joe Ji could only approximate in his mind.

He found that the imperial capital could accommodate less than three million people, but in fact it might be more.

Qiao Ji also found some problems, that is, the outer city wall was only about 10 meters high, and the stone bricks were not large.

From this, it can be speculated that either the national strength of the Golden Eagle Empire is declining, or there are officials who eat kickbacks in mixed waters.

Qiao Ji turned his head and didn’t speak yet….

“The outer city wall took a total of thirty years to build, and it took three generations of emperors.”

When the young man turned his head, Feilin said helplessly, “If you are curious about this, you can look for the ‘Chronicle of the Founding of the Empire’ in the library.” ”

“Thirty years and three generations of emperors? Wrong to say? Qiao Ji blinked his heterochromatic pupils.

Feilin was silent, tugged on the reins, and waited for the outer city gates.

He glanced around and said in a low voice, “The royal battle was the most ruthless, and when the empire was the most turbulent, six emperors died in twenty years. ”

“Shhhhh

It is equivalent to the death of a great emperor in more than three years, which is indeed a bit cruel.

No wonder the three hundred and fifty-five years of history of the Golden Eagle Empire has now been twenty-seven great emperors.

In addition to a few long-lived emperors, you can know how bloody the battle for the imperial throne is.

Qiao Ji suddenly understood why the Youwu family was neutral.

Not neutral, maybe just a few years after standing in line, the next emperor rebelled and ascended to the throne, and he must not kill a group of nobles ….

Coming and going, the Youwu family has been wiped out several times.

Qiao Ji still didn’t dare to say a word: It’s really strange that such an empire has not been destroyed.

Outside the city, it was even more dirty and smelly.

“Ahem…” Qiao Ji took out a handkerchief from his arms, lifted the mask and covered it over his mouth and nose.

He seriously suspected that he was blinded, and the moat was actually a river of smelly water, and all the excrement floating on it was excrement.

“You, you have to learn… Get used to it. Feilin said intermittently holding his breath.

Qiao Ji hummed in response, “No, I may not get used to it for the rest of my life. ”

“Let’s go.” Ferrin ordered and shouted.

“Treadling…”

The horse convoy picked up speed.

Qiao Ji rode to observe and found that outside the city was simply a slum, a wooden shack full of crooked slanting.

And the civilians with numb faces are carrying firewood, charcoal, stone bricks … These may be their sources of income.

“…,” Qiao Ji rode forward expressionlessly.

After leaving the imperial capital, I found that the air was so fresh and the river was so clear and bright.

The only imperfection is that there are several bare hills not far away.

Along the road, patches of golden wheat appeared in front of you.

Ten minutes later, the convoy turned onto another road.

This time, in less than three minutes, I saw a manor.

“This should be the estate of the Marquis de Merle family.”

Qiao Ji muttered in his heart, slowing down the horse.

There are butlers and knights waiting at the gate of the manor.

They saw the family crest of Duke Youwu’s family, and someone immediately came to guide them.
