Chapter 27: Entering the Palace

When Li Jin walked into the wind horn private room again, Xiangxue was confronting the two of them in the corner like a fried cat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Xiangxue. Li Jin didn't shout hoarsely, but called very calmly, and after confirming that Xiangxue saw him, Li Jin's eyes drifted to the leader who followed behind him.

The leader who saw the tense situation didn't pay much attention, but after seeing the look in Li Jin's eyes, he immediately froze. He scolded the two subordinates in a deep voice: "There is no seriousness in doing things!"

Then he said apologetically to Li Jin: "They have no malicious intentions, but they are afraid that Miss will be in a hurry in the car......"

After seeing their boss follow Xiaosheng into the private room, although they didn't know that this person was what they were looking for, they immediately retreated. It's just because the careful look of the head and the two of them are unhappy, for fear that one of them will accidentally suffer from the pond fish.

"Are you okay?" Li Jin came to Xiangxue's side, the little girl's eyes were stubborn at this time, but her whole body was trembling slightly, and she seemed to be frightened.

"Miss......" Xiangxue called Li Jin in a low voice, and her eyes immediately turned red.

"It's okay, it's okay. is to take us to the palace to meet Concubine Jing, and then we can go back to the house. Li Jin comfortingly hugged Xiangxue in her arms and patted the little girl's back comfortingly.

Xiangxue nodded violently in Li Jin's arms, but she couldn't speak.

Just when the leader was about to polish his patience, Li Jin turned around and said, "Let's go." He took the lead and led Xiangxue out of the wind room.

On the way to the palace, although Li Jin has also walked many times, he still can't adapt to it. The cramped alleys and the endless turns made Li Jin breathe miserably.

Xiangxue had already fallen asleep against the wall of the car under Li Jin's careful comfort. Li Jin hoped that this would help her calm some of the frightens she had just had.

The sound of the axles and slate being crushed seemed to have a particularly hypnotic effect, and even though Li Jin felt that he was awake, he couldn't help but feel drowsy when he was contemplating.

Being summoned to the palace this time was unexpected but reasonable, that is, Concubine Jing did not call herself into the palace, and Li Jin also planned to enter the palace by herself this time. It's just that why he was suddenly in such a hurry to summon himself? This is something Li Jin couldn't figure out.

Now that he has a general understanding of what he encountered, he doesn't know why Li Jin feels that things don't seem to be as simple as Huaixi said to him, although it's just intuition.

At the same time, Li Jin remembered the words of Qiao Bai, the etiquette member he met in Yujing Zhai. Li Jin was a little unsure of the truth of the matter for a while. But everything makes perfect sense logically.

Li Jin shook his head and stopped dwelling on this, focusing his mind on the person he was going to face for a while.

How much does Concubine Jing know about the whole incident?

But what Li Jin can be sure of is that at least Concubine Jing will know better than herself the current situation and the entanglement of the forces in the entire court and the palace. Can I ask for more information from her?

Li Jin barely had a moment to rest along the way, and his spirit was too tense, so he instinctively increased his attention to the subtle sounds of the outside world. Because of this, she noticed many things that were different from the previous ones.

Originally, anyone entering the palace gate had to make a register - when, how many, where they entered, who accompanied them, and when they left, they had to go through the palace gate where they entered, and they had to keep a record, and the palace guards had to confirm whether it was the same person.

So at least Li Jin also needs to show his face. But this time, he was directly released, and he didn't even lift the door curtain. The group and the carriage entered the palace wall without stopping for almost a moment in front of the palace gate. Li Jin noticed that when he arrived at the city gate, it seemed that the people outside the car only whispered to the guards guarding the city gate and were let go.

And that's not all. Along the way, Li Jin heard the sound of three evasions in the distance, but his carriage did not stop once. Most of the notices in the palace are those nobles or relatives of the emperor passing by, and those with lower rank on the roadside or attendants or other officials and relatives passing by should avoid it.

You must know that officials like Li Jin must get off the sedan chair and salute to avoid various royal relatives in the palace at this time, even if Li Jin holds the title of a concubine's goddaughter, it is just a title and has no actual rank privileges.

Moreover, this time the carriage has been traveling longer than Li Jin's previous visits to the palace, and normally it should have been a place where the officials of Taihua Garden should have gotten off and walked.

But the carriage showed no sign of stopping at all, and Li Jin became more and more like a pins and needles in the car.

She wasn't sure what was going on, was it really Concubine Jing who had summoned her, why did she have so many privileges along the way, and what was waiting for her?

The convoy moved forward without any obstacles, and because of this, Li Jin and his party soon came to the range of the harem.

"Stop. The sound of stopping the carriage came from the leader Li Jin had met when he was in Yujingzhai.

This situation made Li Jin more and more uneasy.

"Miss Li has arrived, please get out of the car. The leader of the guards said respectfully towards the car.

Li Jin woke up Xiangxue, who had been sleeping uncomfortably in the car, and the two got out of the carriage together. Li Jin, who thought that he would be taken to other places at first, was immediately half relieved when he saw the familiar scenery in front of him. This is indeed Concubine Jing's dormitory - Xuanjing Palace.

Exotic flowers and plants and rare birds and beasts from the northern country are scattered all over the courtyard.

In the middle of winter, the yards elsewhere are only decorated with plum blossoms, but here these strange flowers and plants are specially transplanted in winter, so the whole yard shows a different kind of vitality.

At the banquet, the chamberlain who returned Jinpa to Li Jin also appeared in front of Li Jin, and after saluting, he said: "Miss Li comes with me, Niangniang has been waiting for you for two quarters of an hour." ”

Li Jin was secretly stunned, did she find herself in such a short period of time? She thought that Concubine Jing had just gone out and sent someone to the Li Mansion to look for her, but she only found it at this moment. I didn't expect ......

Obviously, the mother didn't tell the waiter where she went, but only said that she went to the temple to make a vow, and the place she told was completely wrong. How did they find themselves in such a short period of time?

Thinking that in addition to the incident at the banquet a few days ago, he also had another catastrophe on the same day, Li Jin's stomach immediately felt a sudden pain in his stomach. Have you been being watched ever since?

But no one in his family has ever come to Xingshi to ask for the crime, and it has not even spread on the streets and alleys. This shows that Li Jin's guess at that time was correct. The official suppressed the matter and blocked the news, although Li Jin did not know the specific reason.

Therefore, the calm days made Li Jin feel that the incident was big or small, and it was safe.

In that case, why should he spy on himself? Could it be that the official is spying on himself?

How did Concubine Jing know and contact the officials who monitored her? The harem of this dynasty was not allowed to interfere in politics, and even except for her own blood relatives, she was not allowed to have contact with any officials of the previous dynasty, not even her cousins.

Li Jin felt that he was starting to have a faint headache again, and he didn't seem to have broken free from that huge whirlpool.
