Imperial Dragon Mountain, Xiaoshanhe Institute.
Besides the days of ancestral worship ceremonies, today was the busiest day of the year for Xiaoshanhe Institute.
Below Imperial Dragon Mountain, figures surged everywhere, gathering into a black sea of people all climbing toward Imperial Dragon Mountain. Of course, there were also some wealthy nobles riding in carriages, ascending along the official road.
There were official roads and mountain paths on Imperial Dragon Mountain.
Peasants and commoners could only take the mountain paths.
Officials and dignitaries of the fourth rank or above were allowed to ride carriages up the official road straight to the middle of the mountain.
As for the official road that leads directly to the mountain top.
That was a privilege reserved only for members of the royal family and first-rank officials of the court.
Even so.
