Chapter 1144: The Eye Is Above the Top
When the carriage of the eldest princess's mansion stopped at the gate of the palace, it was already the end of the Shen period.
Today's guard of the palace gate happens to be Li Ping, the deputy general of the Yulin Army, who has just made great contributions to Zhou Tianqigang in the county town of Northern Xinjiang, and has now been reinstated.
Lin Wan nodded and smiled at Li Ping, and asked lightly: "Vice General Li, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has something important and must meet the emperor immediately." Do you know where the emperor is now?"
Li Ping bowed and saluted, and said respectfully: "Back to Princess Wanxin's words, the emperor is in Yulin Palace at the moment, does he need the last general to pass it on?"
When Zhou Changying heard this, he waved his hand and said, "No need, this palace also happens to go to Yulin Palace to see the Jade Concubine Niangniang, let's go." After speaking, without waiting for Li Ping to say anything, he ordered Gonggong Bai to drive the carriage to the harem.
Lin Wan shook his head slightly at Li Ping, who bowed down knowingly and didn't say anything more.
The eldest princess has the right to enter the palace at any time, and the Yulin Army must not stop her. As for the fact that there was no communication in advance, even if the emperor blamed it, Li Ping could be said to have ordered it by the eldest princess, at most, he was reprimanded by Feng Qizheng.
The relationship between Yulin and the army is complicated, and Feng Qizheng's commander is not easy to do.
First of all, the deputy commander of the Yulin Army is the sixth prince Zhou Tianzhong, this deputy commander basically does not come to the Yulin Army on weekdays to take shifts, and only when the Yulin Army is assigned a major task, he will show his face. For example, in the past, when envoys from various countries visited, he was responsible for inspecting the post house every once in a while, and when the hunting ceremony was held, he was responsible for going through the scene and performing his duties as deputy commander.
However, the deputy commander of the Yulin Army, who was as valuable as the Sixth Prince and didn't care about anything, didn't cause too much trouble for Feng Qizheng.
Among the four lieutenant generals of the Yulin Army, Wu Qi is the son of Yin of Kyoto Prefecture, and Feng Zhigang is the son of Feng Qizheng.
Li Ping is the person of the Seven Princes, and it is already obvious. Otherwise, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince would not personally order a former deputy general of the Yulin Army who made a mistake and was dismissed before going to Northern Xinjiang, and escorted military rations and salaries to Northern Xinjiang with him.
And Chen Yin, another deputy general in the Yulin Army, is from the Chen family in Haining, and his relationship with the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Lu Guogong Mansion is extraordinary. He is not only strong in martial arts, his eyes are above the top, but he is also very bold, and he often doesn't even pay attention to Feng Qizheng, the commander of the Yulin Army.
Therefore, after Liu Shikui came back a few days ago, the emperor intended to let Liu Shikui take over the position of commander of the Yulin Army, but for Feng Qizheng, he did not have any complaints, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Everyone else thought he would want his son to take over his position. However, Feng Qizheng knew very well in his heart that his son Feng Zhigang could not do the position of the commander of the Yulin Army, who was restrained everywhere.
Lin Wan thought to herself, although Liu Shikui did not win the title of the first warrior in the hunting ceremony. Zhou Changan also did not announce that Liu Shikui would take over as the commander of the Yulin Army for the time being, but since Zhou Changan already had this intention, of course, this matter was only a matter of time.
While thinking about it, the carriage had stopped at the door of the harem. Zhou Changying and Lin Wan got out of the carriage and slowly walked towards Yulin Palace.
There was nothing to say all the way, until Yulin Palace was in front of him, Zhou Changying stopped, glanced back at Lin Wan, and said lightly: "Wan'er, although I am with you, and the Jade Concubine helps to speak, but don't make the emperor too embarrassed for these trivial things about children's affection, understand?"
Lin Wan nodded obediently and said, "Yes, master, Wan'er understands." ”
Zhou Changying nodded reassuringly, smiled and glanced at Lin Wan deeply, then turned around and walked towards the gate of Yulin Palace.
Gonggong Li was waiting outside the door, and when he saw Zhou Changying and Lin Wan coming, he hurriedly greeted him, bowed down, and said, "Slaves, see Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Her Royal Highness Princess Wanxin!"
Zhou Changying nodded slightly, and asked lightly, "Gonggong Li, is the emperor here?"
Gonggong Li nodded without hesitation and replied: "Back to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the emperor has just arrived, and he and the jade concubine are talking inside. ”
Zhou Changying nodded, didn't say anything more, and walked towards the hall. Lin Wan followed behind Zhou Changying, and Gonggong Li hurriedly walked in front of Zhou Changying to lead the way.
Gonggong Li quickened his pace, walked to the door of the main hall, bowed to Zhou Chang'an and Concubine Yu in front of him, and said, "Emperor Qi, Niangniang, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and Her Royal Highness Princess Wanxin have arrived!"
Walking into the hall, I saw that Zhou Changan and Concubine Yu had already stepped down from their seats.
Lin Wan took a step forward, curtsied to Zhou Changan and Concubine Yu, and said, "Wan'er sees her father, she sees Aunt Yu, I wish my father and Aunt Yu all the best, long live my father, long live Long live, long live Aunt Yu, long live Thousand Years Old!"
Zhou Changan smiled and nodded, and said, "Wan'er, flat!" As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhou Changying and said with a smile: "Imperial sister, why are you here?
Concubine Yu followed Zhou Chang'an's side, and also said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, what kind of wind blew you here? Concubine Yu has always been interested, and she knew that Zhou Changying had something to do with Zhou Chang'an, so she immediately left under the pretext of excuse.
When she walked to Lin Wan's side, Concubine Yu glanced at Lin Wan suspiciously, and secretly wondered in her heart, Lin Wan is also here, what is going on?
Lin Wan nodded slightly and gave Concubine Yu a reassuring smile, and Concubine Yu turned around and walked out of the hall with confidence.
Zhou Changan and Zhou Changying had already walked to the main seat above the main hall and sat down, Lin Wan walked to the left, and Zhou Changying's head sat down. Immediately, a maid came up to serve tea, and respectfully placed the tea bowls in front of Zhou Changan, Zhou Changying and Lin Wan.
None of the three of them spoke first, each picked up the tea bowl in front of him, lifted the lid of the bowl, gently blew the floating tea foam, smelled the fragrance of tea, and slowly put it down.
Zhou Changying didn't like to beat around the bush, and said bluntly to Zhou Changan: "Your Majesty, I came today mainly to bring Wan'er to ask for your advice, so let Wan'er say it herself." If the emperor thinks this matter is too difficult, he doesn't have to look at my face. ”
Zhou Changan frowned, looked at Lin Wan suspiciously, and said with a faint smile: "Wan'er, you have always been very sensible, you have always solved problems for me everywhere, and you will never cause me trouble." This time, what are you asking me to decree this time, so that even the imperial sister will feel embarrassed by me?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and said embarrassedly: "Father, you praise Wan'er so much, Wan'er is embarrassed to say it." ”
Zhou Changan laughed and said, "You girl, you have always been unstoppable until you reach your goal, how can you change your original intention of coming here because of a few words of praise from me?"
