Chapter 1013: Entering the Palace
Along the way, the girls have gained knowledge, as a hidden family, there is little contact with the world, even Helian Yun'er, who traveled in the name of cultivating martial arts, has only been to Qingzhou City at the farthest, when the convoy left Qingzhou City, they saw that a completely different world, and what they imagined, is not at all the same.
Since the restoration of the Shenlong Empire, the rapid development and growth have stimulated the heritage of the Shenlong lineage for thousands of years, coupled with Liu Qingshan's use of the experience and experience of later generations, he has formulated quite a lot of development plans, not to mention the changes carried out last year, which have greatly promoted the development of the Shenlong Empire and aroused the creative motivation of the entire people.
Relaxed policies, a peaceful environment, and the glory of the divine dragon bloodline, how can you not develop in such a situation.
The closer they got to the capital, the more they could feel the loud voice.
"A few nieces, stay overnight today, and you can arrive in Dragon City tomorrow, it's very boring to stay in the car these days, do you want to get out of the car and walk around?" Zhuge Ming came to the front of the car, and the relationship between the women became closer and closer, and in order not to be bored these days, they stayed in a carriage.
The curtain of the car opened a corner, revealing half of Situ Mei's face, and a soft voice came: "It's really hard uncle, we're okay, we don't have to get out of the car, so as not to be troublesome, just stay in the hotel." β
"Well, my uncle brought you a few Imperial Daily, if you want to know about Dragon City, and learn about the news of all parties in the Empire, the Times is the best way. As he spoke, he handed over a newspaper that had just been printed in a local journal with the fragrance of ink, which was of course designed by Liu Qingshan, and it was very important for an empire to control public opinion.
So now the Imperial Daily is very popular, what big plans and big policies the empire has are publicized through the daily newspaper, and the habit of one newspaper every two days is accepted by more and more people, not only Dragon City, the influence of the daily newspaper has been centered on Dragon City, spreading around the empire, no, before it has reached Dragon City, there are already daily newspapers for sale.
took the daily newspaper, lowered the curtain, and the women were surprised and grabbed it one by one.
"What is this thing, a celebrity biography, or a poem?" asked Murong Lan a little inexplicably, she had never heard of the Imperial Daily.
Helian Yun'er traveled all over the world, saw a lot of things, and said: "The Imperial Daily is a kind of circular, which publishes the major events of the Empire, as well as the policies of the Empire, as long as the imperial plan related to the people's livelihood, it will be printed in the daily newspaper in advance, and it will be collected by the people, or implemented, or modified, or banned, it is said that it is very popular in Dragon City." β
"Wow, isn't this damaging to the authority of the emperor, the power of the king, how can people make irresponsible remarks, even if it is wrong, no one dares to say it?"
"No, it is said that the people of Longcheng are open-minded, the emperor is not bound by the world, and the implementation of all new policies will be supported by most of the people, otherwise it will not be implemented, or this is the biggest reason why the empire continues to develop and grows stronger and stronger. β
Shangguan Tianxue is a talented woman, but she didn't speak at this time, she just looked at the newspaper attentively, from the beginning, every news was not missed, a big newspaper, folded up, divided into four pages, the first page of the news, is about the emperor's selection, which is published about the preparation of the draft, as well as the progress, so that people can see it, at a glance.
Shangguan Tianxue was amazed in her heart, with this newspaper, she really didn't go out, and she could know the world.
When everyone reads the newspaper, the sound is gone, the carriage becomes very quiet, only the occasional voice of exclamation, this newspaper not only has the great events of the empire, the people's livelihood, but also the rumors of the market, which makes people laugh when they read it, it is really beautiful.
Entertainment is like a desert in this era, and even a newspaper can be read with relish.
waited until they finished reading and put down the newspaper, and the women began to talk excitedly.
"I'm really getting more and more interested in Dragon City now, I wonder if Dragon City is as good as it says?"
"Don't think about it, as a show girl, we are not in Dragon City, but to enter the imperial palace, and if we are selected by the emperor, we will become the imperial concubine, how can the imperial concubine leave the palace without permission, you can come out if you don't want to come out, if you don't choose, you can take a walk around Dragon City, and then go home. β
In the afternoon of the next day, a group of carriages finally entered Dragon City, which was different from all the big cities that had passed through a few days ago, there was no tall city gate here, and the highest place was only five or six meters of city towers, which made the women very surprised, and Murong Lan, who couldn't help talking a lot, asked in surprise: "It's strange, Dragon City is the capital of the empire, why is the city tower so short, if it encounters a military disaster, isn't it very dangerous?"
The women are also you look at me, I look at you, they all the way, when they pass through the big city, they are amazed by the grandeur of the city tower, but as the capital of a country, the dragon city, there is only such a short city tower, it is really incomprehensible, the place where the emperor lives, isn't it more heavily guarded and more impregnable?
A faint laugh came, Zhuge Ming turned his head and said: "Little girl, you don't understand this, this is the emperor's intention, when the new city was built, there were also ministers who drew drawings, the height of the dragon city tower, the grandeur, unparalleled in the world, but was vetoed by the emperor, the emperor said, as the national capital, is the safest place in the empire, if there is an enemy army can hit the dragon city, it is his dereliction of duty, so in order to promote his own progress, he will build these low city towers, in order to prove the strong heart. β
Saying this, all the women were in awe, and even the most literary and indifferent Shangguan Tianxue was also moved, what kind of anger does this have to be so domineering.
"Okay, don't think about it, wait for the palace, a lot of things, you will naturally understand, I have contacted Tianfeng, you can stay in the outer palace tonight, and after the review is needed tomorrow, you can enter the inner palace, along the way, everyone is also very hard, take a good rest today, recuperate, maybe tomorrow into the palace, you can meet the emperor, you can pay more attention, enter the palace, uncle can not help you." β
"Uncle Xie told me that we will keep it in mind. β
The curtains on both sides have opened a corner, a few women gathered by the window, looking out, this is the Dragon City, but it is really lively, on the street, people come and go, cars come and go, along both sides of the street, there are many shops, it is really a prosperous business, and the country of richness in their dreams, more and more coincide.
Just from this prosperity, one can imagine the strength of the Divine Dragon Empire.
At the gate of the Shenlong Emperor's Palace, Zhuge Tianfeng has long been waiting in person, as the imperial concubine, or one of the first few daughters to be concubines, her status in the imperial palace is of course different from Cong, not to mention, she has a best friend, Concubine Wu, Luo Tianwu, as one of the four generalissimos of the empire, is in charge of the military aircraft department, which can be regarded as a high authority, no matter who it is, she has to give a little face.
This time I received news from my father, knowing that the hidden family had surrendered, and sent the daughters of each family, I heard that among them, there were two cousins of the uncle's family, of course she had to take care of it, this is also for the benefit of the empire, for the benefit of the emperor, the hidden family can integrate into the Shenlong Empire, it is also a great achievement.
In addition, the Great Emperor has an accident in his cultivation body, and he needs more pure and innocent yin, and now that these concubines of the hidden family are coming, of course she has to choose carefully, and besides, she is also a member of the hidden family, of course, she also hopes to have more natural allies.
Several carriages stopped at the gate of the palace, and several women got off one after another.
At first glance, I saw the magnificent Great Emperor's Palace, as a symbol of the empire, even if Liu Qingshan opposed extravagance and waste, but this kind of faΓ§ade matter, the courtiers would not allow it, so the imperial palace was still decorated with golden brilliance, the empire developed greatly, and the financial resources were abundant.
This is also to maintain the face of the great power of the Shenlong Empire, so unlike the general faint monarch who is greedy for enjoyment, in the Shenlong Empire, the maintenance of the imperial palace is personally responsible for the cabinet, and he is not afraid of spending money, but he is afraid that it is not spectacular.
The majesty of the guards contrasts with this majestic imperial palace, which makes people feel the power of the tall king.
The second sight is to see the person standing and waiting at the gate of the palace.
The leader, dressed in a colorful red palace dress, dressed in a luxurious manner, although he just stood there, he gave people the momentum of an imperial concubine, some things were not there before, but after living in the imperial palace for a long time, naturally, it will be smoked.
This imperial concubine is Zhuge Tianfeng.
Behind Zhuge Tianfeng's side, there are many personal female officials, palace maids, inner palace guards and the like, as the imperial concubine of the inner palace, no matter where she goes, there can be only one person, this is not only to protect security, but also a symbol of status.
"I've seen my father. "Although the royal power is the greatest, in the imperial palace, this kind of rule is not enforced, otherwise at this time, only Zhuge Ming would salute Zhuge Tianfeng.
"Tianfeng, my father has already brought people over, and the rest will be left to you, if you can, take care of one or two, you can't stay here for a long time, go back first for your father." β
The daughter knew, and the father walked slowly. β
In the past few days, several women have become familiar with Zhuge Ming, and now as soon as he leaves, he comes to a strange place again, or this kind of imperial palace that gives people infinite pressure, and all the women follow the rules one by one and salute Zhuge Tianfeng.
"The people have seen the imperial concubine. β
Even Situ Mei and Situ Li are no exception.
Zhuge Tianfeng walked over, waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't be polite, Xiaomei, Xiaoli, I haven't seen you for a few years, do you still recognize your cousin?"
The two girls looked at Zhuge Tianfeng, they were very stressed, and they really didn't dare to meet each other after being separated for several years.
Because of Zhuge Tianfeng's changes, it is too big, not only has it become more beautiful than before, but also because of the name of the imperial concubine, there is more invisible majesty.
"Cousin, you're so beautiful. β
"Cousin, your clothes are so beautiful. β
Zhuge Tianfeng grinned, stepped forward and grabbed the hands of the two girls, and said: "Let's go, I'll take you into the palace, let's live in the outer palace today, all those who enter the inner palace need to be strictly inspected by the female officials in the palace, and my cousin can't make an exception, otherwise the emperor will take a fancy to it, but it won't be pleasing to it, then it will be troublesome." β
Every person who enters the palace must go through a strict inspection, and it is the kind of full body inspection, which is responsible for a special female official, because it is related to the emperor's bedtime, no one can make an exception, even if the two palace masters let people enter the palace, they must go through this pass, and they can only enter if they are qualified.
For example, a woman who has just entered the palace must be a pure body, from head to toe, there is no abnormality, such as peculiar smell, different color, alien shape, etc., after all, every woman who enters the palace may have the grace of the emperor to sleep, if there is a sick woman mixed in, provoking the emperor to dislike, that is a big problem.
