Chapter 54: Brocade Guards

Zhending Prefecture, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Tiandu, happens to be the transportation hub of ancient Yanjin. Since the Xuande period, after the establishment of the Right Guard Command Department, it has become an important military town guarding Tiandu.

Although it is nominally a prefecture, it governs five prefectures and eleven counties, and it also has jurisdiction over the other counties directly under Tiandu.

Pei Xuanjing, riding on a top-notch warhorse gifted by Shen Qianhu, finally arrived at this major town adjacent to Tiandu after a three-month journey, only a step away from entering Tiandu.

The realm of Heaven and Earth here is much larger than in Pei Xuanjing's previous life. If not for his excellent physical condition as a third-grade Martial Artist and this warhorse capable of travelling a thousand miles a day, the journey would have taken even longer.

Originally, Pei Xuanjing planned to travel day and night directly to Tiandu.
