A wall more than three meters high, a corridor about seven or eight meters long and more than three meters wide, and a heavy Xihe Gate separated the two worlds.

Inside the West and Gate, it is the most graceful and luxurious, the most magnificent, the most magnificent and the most solemn palace of the Red Ice Country. It is also the place where the civil and military ministers of the Chibing Kingdom and the emperor of the Chibing Kingdom discuss the government affairs.

Outside the Xihe Gate, there were nearly fifty guards dressed in brown leather armor, armed with spears, and a long knife pinned to their waists. Their only duty was to guard the West and Gate for the children of the Imperial Family of the Red Ice Kingdom, as well as the guards, maids, and eunuchs who served in the inner court of the Red Ice Kingdom to enter and leave the Imperial Palace, and to arrest and put into the Heavenly Prison a misscrupulous person who intended to sneak into the inner court of the Imperial Palace and out of the Imperial Court.

Today, there is a small four-wheeled carriage pulled by three tall brown horses, which is actually made of high-quality nanmu wood, although it has a simple appearance.

Standing beside the carriage stood a woman wrapped in layers of thick layers like a brown bear with a sky-blue silk scarf on her face, and in front of the carriage stood a man in a gray caftan brown suit with a three-foot green peak in his hand, a man in a brocade robe, and a guard in leather armor, holding a spear, and a long knife pinned to his waist.

"Piano Master??" Looking at Yan Ziming and Leng Qing, the guard's eyes were full of suspicion.

When Yan Ziming heard this, he immediately nodded heavily, and responded with a smile: "Yes, this brother, you also know that our Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always wanted to come out one by one, saying that the wind is the rain." Isn't it that after listening to a song played by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the palace banquet at the beginning of the year, he was always clamoring to find a pianist with excellent piano skills to compete with the royal luthier of His Majesty, and my brothers were ordered to go outside the palace to find such a luthier for His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

When the guard heard this, he bowed his head and fell silent, as if he was thinking about the credibility of Yan Ziming's words.

Seeing this, Yan Ziming was not in a hurry, nor did he say anything to urge, but still looked at the guard with a smile on his face, quietly waiting for the guard's decision.

Time, passing slowly in silence and silence.

After about half a cup of tea. The guard suddenly looked up at Yan Ziming and Mu Wen, as well as the so-called "piano master" Leng Qing in the mouths of the two of them.

In Mu Wen's expressionless face, Yan Ziming's hippie smiling face, and Leng Qing's calm and calm. I saw the guard turn around and shout to the guards behind him, "You can let go!"

When Yan Ziming heard this, he immediately bowed his hand to the guard, and thanked him in a kind tone: "Thank you to this brother! Next time my two brothers are ordered to leave the palace, I will definitely bring this brother a jar of the best wine specially collected in the palace of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Yan Ziming is such an obvious show of goodwill, if he changes the person next to him. The other party will gladly accept it, but the guards who can be sent to guard the West Harmony Gate are all strictly trained - what can be done, what cannot be done, what can be said and what cannot be said, they are all strictly trained.

Therefore, the guard in charge of the investigation not only did not give Yan Ziming face, but also said in a cold tone: "No need! No one is allowed to stay in front of Xihe for long!"

Yan Ziming was not annoyed by the guard's cold face, but continued to smile and agree: "Okay, let's go in." Then our carriage will be disposed of by the brothers of Lao. ”

With that, Yan Ziming greeted Mu Wen and Leng Qing, and the three of them stepped into the Xihe Gate under the gaze of nearly fifty guards wearing brown leather armor, holding spears, and holding a long knife at their waists.

The guard in charge of interrogating Yan Ziming, Mu Wen, and Leng Qing watched the figures of Yan Ziming and the three disappear into the Xihe Gate, and then the guard waved his hand to summon a guard dressed in the same costume as him. Then he whispered in the guard's ear: "Go and report to the people in the queen's palace, Wang Quan and Muwen are back, and this time they have brought back a female luthier to His Royal Highness the Prince." Look at the woman's cold, she must have come from the south. Xu is the person of the big beam. ”

"Yes!" the guard whispered in agreement, then turned and trotted into the West Peace Gate.

The screen switches to the inside of the West and Gate gates.

The long, straight passage is paved with fine white marble at your feet, and on the left and right sides are gray-white walls more than three meters high, with arches at unequal intervals. A group of three people, Yan Ziming, who was disguised as a baby-faced, walked in the front. Leng Qing, who was wrapped like a brown bear, walked in the middle, and the most normal-looking pastoral wen walked at the end.

Because it snowed only yesterday, the weather is still a little gloomy, and there are only thick cumulus clouds in the sky, and even the shadow of the sun is not visible.

There is still a lot of snow piling up on the roofs of the houses on both sides of the street outside the Red Ice Kingdom Palace, and some of the eaves are still dripping with water due to the melting of the snow, so that pedestrians dare not walk under the eaves. But in the Imperial Palace of the Red Ice Country, inside the West and Gate, there was not even a shadow of a little snow!

Now, Yan Ziming, Mu Wen and Leng Qing are walking on foot in the palace inside the West and Gate.

Previously, Leng Qing stood on the half-human-high wheel and looked into the distance, and could only see the top of the glazed tile heavy eaves hall one by one, the majestic and majestic of which was blocked by the wall that was only more than three meters high, and now walking in it, immersive, Leng Qing was impressed by the scene she saw along the way-

Along the way, every step of the road is paved with high-quality white marble, look around, the towering palaces, revealing a brilliant glazed tile heavy eaves of the palace, it is particularly dazzling and brilliant.

At the ends of the cornices of the palace are two dragons with golden scales and claws, which are carved by craftsmen so vividly that they seem to be flying away in the next moment.

Each palace is built according to the topography of the terrain, as if it is surrounded by each other, but it is in its own right. The paving under the eaves of the hall and the forehead are depicted with delicate danqing, which complements the vermilion lacquer door.

From a distance, every palace is so majestic and splendid!

This is really a response to "five steps on the first floor, ten steps on the first floor; corridor waist back, eaves teeth high pecking; each hugging the terrain, hooking the heart and corners." The long bridge lies on the waves, the clouds are not cloudy, the dragon is empty, and the road is empty, and the high and low are confused, and they do not know the west and the east. The song platform is warm, the spring is melting, and the dance hall is cold, and the wind and rain are sad. In one day, between one house, and the climate is uneven".

Even if the weather is gloomy today, and there is no sunshine, it cannot hide the splendor and grandeur of this majestic palace. When people walk in it, they only feel small and unbearable, and they can't compare with it.

This feeling of near-oppression is different from the Forbidden City that Leng Qing has visited in the past.

The Forbidden City, although it is also a magnificent and majestic palace, is only a historical monument left over, lacking a fresh atmosphere. And the palace in front of Leng Qing, although it does not have the majestic atmosphere of the Forbidden City, it has a more vivid atmosphere than the Forbidden City, so that it feels more real and real.

"Hello !!" An irrepressible sneeze interrupted all Leng Qing's thoughts.

Yan Ziming, who was walking in front with a baby face, heard the not-so-heavy sneeze behind him, and immediately stopped and turned around and smiled: "You can still sneeze when you wear so much and are wrapped like a bear, and you won't be so cold!"

Because of the silk scarf on her face, Leng Qing couldn't rub her nose with her hands, so she could only wrinkle her nose, but after that, Leng Qing still felt that her nose was very uncomfortable, and when she heard Yan Ziming ridicule herself like this, Leng Qing immediately glanced at Yan Ziming and retorted coldly: "Do you think that everyone is not afraid of cold like you! Say I'm a bear, you are simply a natural bear!

At this moment, in front of him, a group of patrol soldiers in jet-black armor, armed with spears and long knives at their waists, stepped out of an archway. I saw that the group of soldiers made a turn and walked head-on in the direction of Yan Ziming and the others.

Seeing this, Mu Wen immediately reminded him: "Master, the forbidden army is here. ”

When Yan Ziming heard this, he looked back and saw that there was really a team of soldiers in jet-black armor coming over, and even though he no longer spoke to Leng Qing, he was only busy pulling Leng Qing under the gray-white wall on the side to make way for the patrol soldiers.

Mu Wen also retreated to the side under the gray and white wall, silent.

In Yan Ziming and Mu Wen's bated breath, Leng Qing's confusion, I saw that the patrol soldiers were expressionless, and their expressions were solemn, their eyes did not squint, and they walked in front of the three of them in unison.

Watching the patrol soldiers go away, Yan Ziming looked at Leng Qing and said with a smile: "Although I don't know what a polar bear is, we are indeed ......."

However, before Yan Ziming's words were finished, he was interrupted by Leng Qing mercilessly-

"That group of soldiers just now...... Is there anything special?Why do I feel like you're a little afraid of them?" Leng Qing asked as the patrol soldiers in jet-black armor, spear in hand, and long knives at their waists walked into an arch in the distance.

Whether it was in front of the Suzaku Gate or in front of the Xihe Gate, in the face of those guards guarding the door, Yan Ziming and Mu Wen were very calm and calm, and they could even be said to be at ease, but after the team of patrol soldiers in jet black armor appeared just now, how could Leng Qing not notice Yan Ziming and Mu Wen's abnormal attitude?

In Leng Qing's opinion, the only difference between that patrol soldier and those guards guarding in front of the Suzaku Gate and Xihe Gate was that the armor they wore was different colors, but Yan Ziming and Mu Wen were like frightened birds after seeing that patrol soldiers, and they didn't even dare to speak, and even pulled her aside to make way for the patrol soldiers!

Leng Qing was very curious, and the patrol soldiers ...... What's so different about it? (To be continued.) )
