Chapter 57: The royal palace

The Royal Palace.

The place that symbolized and represented the Mauryan Empire.

It was a vast majestic castle built in the middle of the capital. 

High walls covered all around the castle and a huge Lion statue were built in the front yard flower garden representing the Mauryan lineage.

There were five buildings inside the high walls that constituted the royal palace.

On the far right and left were the mansions where the maids and soldiers lived respectfully.

And about some distance from the soldier's adobe was the Guest mansion, where the ministers, generals, foreign envoys, and other guests resided temporarily.

Between the guest mansion and the Soldier's adobe, there was a huge training ground built for the training of royal guards that were stationed in the royal palace.

And besides, the maid's mansion was the Consort's palace where the Queen and the concubines of the emperor resided.
