Chapter 234: Continent of the Gods

Continent of the Gods * Chaofeng Palace

Chaofeng Palace is located in the east of the Continent of the Gods, different from other palaces concentrated around the Imperial Garden, if you want to enter Chaofeng Palace, you first need to pass through a long water bridge corridor, under the bridge corridor is full of clear water ponds, lotus leaf pavement, every summer is particularly beautiful, but in winter there is a cold depression.

Passing through the bridge corridor, you can walk into the jade steps in front of the Chaofeng Palace, the jade steps have a total of nine layers, wide and flat, straight to the palace gate, there are two golden laurel trees towering on both sides, the leaves are luxuriant, but there is no half of the fallen leaves on the ground, obviously the people who clean are very frequent.

Push open the palace door and enter the palace, the whole hall carves the dragon and the phoenix, noble and gorgeous; turn right through the main hall, lift the purple crystal bead curtain, you can see a screen embroidered with the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River in March, in front of the screen is a low stool and a zither.

Through the screen, you will come to the inner room, which is very simple, with a bed, a dresser, and a soft couch, which is placed in front of the window that is open all the year round.

Coral for the window, sit on the soft couch and look out of the window, it is a garden full of strange flowers and plants, there are 22 flowers and trees of different varieties, the plants are tall and handsome, such as the beginning of summer, the wind moves and the flowers fall, all kinds of petals are spread all over the clear pond, but it is also another scenery.

In the spring and autumn, the gate of Chaofeng Palace is always closed, making people forget several times that this majestic work that once gathered half of the Demon Domain craftsmen, and I don't know how many years have passed, in the winter of Daqing, the door of the Black Gold Palace slowly opened, awakening the sleeping Demon Domain.

The heavy gate slowly opened, and the rumbling sound was particularly clear on this winter afternoon, attracting the attention of the three concubines who were admiring the snow in the imperial garden.

Demon Demon Monarch Jun Liang, ascended the throne at the age of seventeen, changed the name of the country to Daqing, married the daughter of the Mu family in the same year, and started to build Chaofeng Palace at the end of the year, and searched for the Demon Domain skilled craftsmen after three years before completion.

On Allure's nineteenth birthday, Jun Liang gave Chaofeng Palace as a birthday gift to Allure, and since then Chaofeng Palace has officially been known as the palace of the Queen of the Demon Domain.

However, just half a year after Allure moved in, on a sparse and ordinary night, the gate of Chaofeng Palace was never opened after it was closed, and not only Junjuan, the entire Demon Domain seemed to have lost his memory, as if they had never had a queen, and the Mu family was also hidden in the court, only Allure's nephew Mu Jian'an had a six-rank virtual title in the Ministry of Rites.

Jun Liang doesn't like women, and there are only three concubines and six concubines one after another over the years, and it is the three concubines who hear the sound for the first time at this time: Concubine Ling Xueyao of the Ling family, Concubine Jing Feng of the Feng family, and Concubine De Wan Xinzhi.

The sound sounded from the east. "Concubine De is the oldest of the three, sixteen into the palace, and now it is only two years, and she has the love of two sisters, and her temperament is still a little delicate, "Two sisters, should we go over and have a look?"

Feng Yuning entered the palace a year earlier than Wan Xinzhi, and her temperament was a lot calmer, "At the beginning of entering the palace, Father-in-law Hua seemed to have instructed us not to go over. ”

"Oh, why is Sister Feng so daring. Wan Xinzhi felt that this harem was extremely boring, and there was no excitement at all as she imagined, she was about to go crazy, and looked at Ling Xueyao, who was the first to come in between them, "Sister Ling, you can take Xinzhi over to have a look." ”

Feng Yuning also looked at Ling Xueyao, she was also a little curious.

Ling Xueyao heard Wan Xinzhi's voice, her fist under her sleeve quietly loosened, she exhaled softly, and raised her hand on the hand of the girl Ning Zhu, "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”

Wan Xinzhi was very happy, and made a smug face at Feng Yuning, "It's better to Sister Ling, Kai Luck and Kai Fu will follow quickly." ”

Feng Yuning smiled dotingly at Wan Xinzhi and followed closely without anything.

At first, the three of them walked side by side, and gradually the flower path on the road could only accommodate the two of them to pass in parallel, and slowly it became Ling Xueyao in front, Wan Xinzhi in the middle, and Feng Yuning last.

Wan Xinzhi was very excited, she was very curious about the east of the harem, she hadn't been here before, but she was often stopped by someone in front of the pavilion by the clear pool, and then in less than half a stick of incense, the black-faced Hua Gonggong would appear and let her go back, which was just angry with her.

It's different now, they heard the noise, and Ling Xueyao was there, forgive them for not having the guts, even if they were still stopped, the three of them could break in, and by the time Father-in-law Hua came, they had already finished visiting.

As soon as she thought of this, Wan Xinzhi was so excited, seeing that they were about to walk to the pavilion, she hurriedly took two steps to squeeze away the condensation beads, and personally stepped forward to help Ling Xueyao, "Sister, there seems to be someone guarding there." ”

Ling Xueyao looked over, but her eyes did not fall on Wan Xinzhi's two people, but walked through the bridge corridor, looking at the wide open palace gate, the luxurious palace gate on the nine-story white jade steps, she still saw it open when she was born eight years ago, but unfortunately her identity at that time was not enough to be invited in, so she could only kneel in front of the jade steps and leave.

Now, the unreachable palace door is wide open, and the two palace maids in front of the door are sweeping the ground, and she is going there as the first concubine of the harem.

It's been eight years, and that's a lot of time.

"Sister?" Wan Xinzhi shook Ling Xueyao's arm, "Sister, what are you thinking? What's wrong with you?"

Wan Xinzhi pouted and looked at Ling Xueyao, listening to Sister Ling's seventeen-year-old entry into the palace, she is twenty-five years old this year, she won't be old, plus she has been bored in this harem for too long, what is wrong with her spirit now?

Ling Xueyao came back to her senses and looked at Wan Xinzhi, her breathing was slightly short, "What's the matter?"

"There are people in front and in front. Wan Xinzhi was frightened by Ling Xueyao's appearance, "Sister Ling, what's wrong with you, why are you sweating?"

Hearing this, Ning Shuang stepped forward and stood in front of Ling Xueyao's side, looking worried, and took out a handkerchief to wipe it for Ling Xueyao while speaking with concern, "Niangniang, you are not feeling well, and your forehead is soaked. ”

"Nothing. ”

Taking the handkerchief of Ning Shuang, Ling Xueyao looked at the two people standing under the wooden pavilion ten meters away, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she had been here before, but she was blocked back, presumably this time was no exception, so that Wan Xinzhi died, "Let's go, let's go up and ask." ”

She was still timid.

Feng Yuning looked at Ling Xueyao's abnormality, and didn't dare to step forward with some hesitation, but looking at the dazzling and majestic palace behind Qingchi, after all, curiosity overcame anxiety and followed.

There was a wooden pavilion on the left and right sides of the bridge corridor, and under each of the wooden pavilions stood a eunuch, and it was obvious that all three of them had been here, and they all stopped three paces away.

Ling Xueyao took a deep breath, raised her foot and took a step forward, Wan Xin Zhifeng Yu Ning stopped in place, staring nervously at the movement in front of her.

I saw that Ling Xueyao's footsteps had just settled, and the two eunuchs under the pavilion had stepped forward synchronously, bowing their heads respectfully and saluting, "Concubine Niangniang." ”

Only greeted Concubine Shu, the other two seemed to be invisible at all, the eunuch on the right side spoke, his voice was immature and sharp, and people had goosebumps when they heard it, "Concubine Shu Niangniang wants to go over?"

Before Ling Xueyao could answer, Wan Xinzhi stepped forward to stand beside Ling Xueyao, and didn't forget to pull Feng Yuning together, "What do you mean by this, can this concubine and the two sisters cross the bridge with the permission of the two of you?"

"Concubine De, Concubine Jing. ”

Seeing them come forward, the two of them greeted each other unhurriedly.

Compared with Wan Xinzhi's irritability, they are more like a master calmly, which makes Feng Yuning's face on the side a little dark, she was just dragged by Wan Xinzhi and staggered two steps, at this time, looking at the demeanor is not as good as the two eunuchs, is this going to spread that their Feng family still has a face?

The eunuch on the right spoke again, "Slave courage, do the three maidens want to go over?"

Seeing that this eunuch dared to completely ignore her words, Wan Xinzhi was about to get angry in anger, but Ling Xueyao quickly grabbed her and glared at her angrily, "Concubine Jing, pay attention to your identity." ”

Wan Xinzhi was stupid, since she entered the palace, Ling Xueyao had treated her as her own sister, and this was the first time she had seen her call her by her name.

"Sister......

Ling Xueyao held Wan Xinzhi's hand tightly, as if she wanted to divert her uneasiness, and almost crushed Wan Xinzhi's palm, but she had just been drunk by Ling Xueyao, and she actually gritted her teeth and held back.

"Yes. Ling Xueyao straightened her back and looked at the two who bowed and saluted, and kept telling herself that they were just eunuchs, "Concubine Ben and her two younger sisters heard a noise here in the Imperial Garden, so they came over to take a look. ”

Ling Xueyao took a breath before she barely let out a long breath, now she just waited for them to refuse, and then they could turn around and leave, there would be no difference between today and the past.

"Please wait a moment for the three maids, and the slave will go and ask for instructions. ”

The words fell, and before Ling Xueyao could react, the person on the left who had not spoken had already turned around and went up to the bridge corridor, and almost in the blink of an eye, he had already reached the front of the jade steps.

Ling Xueyao looked at it with burning eyes, her heart pounding uneasily, as if she might burst out at any time, and the people inside ...... Isn't it dead?

Wan Xinzhi also forgot the pain in her hand, and looked excitedly at the eunuch kneeling under the jade steps, could they pass?

Feng Yuning was a little calmer than the two of them, but he also looked at the situation in front of the palace gate without blinking.

The eunuch knelt on the ground for a while, and a maid in a light blue gauze came out from the top of the jade steps, and everyone only felt that her eyes were looking at them, and then the red lips touched and spit out a word, and then turned and entered.

After the eunuch waited for the maid to enter the door, he flew back, and suddenly came to them, "Three mothers, please." ”

got permission, but Ling Xueyao suddenly became timid, she even wanted to turn around and leave desperately, but Wan Xinzhi was staring at herself excitedly.

Hard-headed, Ling Xueyao finally stepped on the bridge corridor and walked step by step towards the palace she had longed for, nervous and excited.

The light blue woman walked into the palace, gently lifted the crystal curtain and looked at the woman sitting in front of the pipa, "Niangniang, they are here." ”

The woman did not look up, her long fine black hair fell from her shoulders to her chest, her eyelashes trembled gently with her moving fingers, but they covered her eyes just enough to make it impossible to see, and her delicate chin tilted forward slightly, playfully showing the blessing of existence from the loose hair

The light blue maiden took two steps back and said no more.

The woman's fingers continued to wander on the strings of the lute, but they did not touch the strings at all, and naturally there was no sound at all.

"Blue sleeves. ”

The woman raised her head with her eyes closed, her red lips opened lightly, and a flawless and beautiful face was exposed to the air.

"The slave is here. The light blue woman stepped forward and complained with some dissatisfaction, "Niangniang, you have overtime again today." ”

The corners of the woman's lips curled slightly, "Yes, why don't you call me." With that, the woman raised her right hand, stood up with her blue-sleeved arm, and slowly opened her eyes.

If it was just the ink breeze blowing the dust, then the moment the woman opened her eyes, it could be called a gorgeous sun, and a pair of black eyes seemed to have exhausted the beauty of the world.

"The slave is called, and you have to be the mother. Blue sleeves pouted, anyway, every time it was like this, just every time it was not taken seriously.

Bypassing the screen, he helped the woman to sit on the stool in front of the dresser, Blue Sleeves took a step back, and Purple Sleeves immediately stepped forward and began to groom the woman with a wooden comb.

"There were a few people. The woman picked up a red blood bracelet in the makeup and put it on, and the contrast between the white wrist and the red color was very satisfying.

"Huai'an Bao is the third concubine of Shudejing. Looking at the red blood bracelet on the woman's hand, Blue Sleeves handed the purple palace dress he had just selected to the palace maid, turned around and began to choose again.

The mother doesn't like the combination of red and purple.

"Third concubine. The woman blinked, "It seems that there are a lot of palace skirts now." ”

Blue Sleeves stood behind the woman with the grapefruit gold palace dress in her hand, so that she could just see the clothes in the mirror, "It's not that you are so lively, it's too late to regret it now." ”

"Lan'er's vision is getting better and better. The woman bent the corners of her mouth, not minding the following offense of the blue sleeves at all, "Zi'er is more simple to go to school"

"Yes, sis. Zi'er sped up the movement of her hand.

After half a stick of incense, the purple sleeves had just inserted the last hairpin, and the green sleeves came in with a few palace maids, and the tray in their hands was the incense powder that had just been made today, "Niangniang, people are already in the main hall." ”

The woman got up, and the blue-sleeved and blue-sleeved immediately stepped forward to change her clothes, while the purple sleeves stepped forward to open the jar of incense powder and began to select one by one.

"Niangniang, is it okay to moisten the roses with water today?"

"Hmm. ”

Purple sleeves picked up the powder jar of moist roses and waved away the palace maid, the blue sleeves and green sleeves just sorted out the woman's clothes, and the moment she turned around, she only felt that her eyes were bright, and the purple sleeves smiled and squinted, "Niangniang is really more beautiful the more you look at it." ”

Giggles, Zi'er's mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter. The woman listened with a smile on her face, and her brilliant face made the whole room seem to light up a little.

At this time, Red Blood, who was far away in the imperial study, looked up at Huatai in disbelief, "What are you? Who wants to see you?"

Huatai's voice trembled a little, "Your Majesty, it's Huai Zhun, Huai Zhun of Chaofeng Palace." ”

Huai Zhun.
