It's a bit of a cloudy day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The castle tower of Hanyang Palace seems to be wrapped in a layer of light clouds and light smoke, hazy. Even though the sky was already bright, the waning moon of last night still refused to leave, struggling to hang by the weeping poplar.
As soon as the incense car entered the palace gate, a straight avenue appeared in front of you.
There is a pond next to the avenue. At this time, the morning sun casts a ray of red glow in the pond through the cloud curtain, shining all over the bay of gulls and herons. The reeds on the edge of the pond are full of autumn colors.
The two sides of the avenue are planted with acacia and wood hibiscus, at this time it is in the flowering period, it blooms brilliantly, Yingying Douxiu, a tree fragrant wind, ten miles of continuous.
After walking on the heavenly street in the Hanyang Palace, most of the honor guards and maids in the car had been removed, leaving only eight palace maids and two little eunuchs still following behind.
Zhang Kejiu walked all the way to the side of the incense car, and as he walked, he explained the general situation of the palace to the people in the car in a voice that was neither high nor low.
Yunyang has been thinking about how to deal with himself after entering the palace, and the more he thinks about it, the more worried he becomes. I really haven't heard a few words of his words.
Until there was a "boom" outside and the majestic sound of water came.
"Where does the sound of water come from? Is there a big waterwheel here? Yunyang was puzzled for a moment, so he gently opened the curtain of the car......
The moment the curtain was opened, a mist had already hit his face. Yun Yang looked at it and didn't feel like he was there.
There is a big waterfall ten zhang wide and twenty zhang high in front of him, the surging water flow falls rapidly, the momentum is like a rainbow, the water flow smashes into the big lake below, stirring up a piece of broken jade.
Although Yunyang has seen waterfalls before, most of them are found in mountain streams and small rivers beside the road. I had never seen such an angry scene, and the expression on her face was quite shocking for a while.
Zhang Kejiu saw it on the side, leaned closer and said: "When the palace was built, Luoshui and Yishui were introduced into the palace, and a large lake with a radius of 300 hectares was built here, called Tianyuan Pond. ”
"In the middle of Tianyuan Pond, there are two immortal mountains with opposite horns, named Fangjia and Yangshan, and there are hanging corridors between the two mountains to connect with each other."
"The lake west of the two immortal mountains is called the West Sea, and this waterfall is the symbol of the West Sea."
"The lake east of Xianshan is called Cuiguang."
Yun Yang looked in the direction of his finger, only to see the two immortal mountains in the center of the lake were full of smoke, and when they reached the top of the mountain, there was a veranda with blue tiles and red pillars hanging in the air, connecting the two immortal mountains into one.
Dozens of cranes were dancing around the fairy mountain and verandah at this time.
"It's really a fairyland on earth." Yunyang secretly admired in his heart.
After walking for a while, Zhang Kejiu pointed to the shore with abundant water and grass on the east side of Tianyuan Pond and said, "The residence of Lord Scrivener is the Qi Ao Palace in front. ”
Yunyang raised his eyes to look, and saw a palace not far away with a golden glazed roof, jade grease and mud covering the wall, and a vermilion lacquer gate half-hidden in front of him.
The most conspicuous place of this palace is a three-story collection standing on the southwest side of the main hall, which shows that this place must be a place where all kinds of classics in the palace gather.
"Qi Ao, Qi Ao ......" Yun Yang silently recited twice in his heart, and it can be known that this name comes from the "Book of Songs". Wei Feng" in "Qi Ao".
"Zhan Bi Qiao, green bamboo. There are bandit gentlemen, such as cutting and learning, such as grinding. Yunyang silently recited the sentences in "Qi Ao", and secretly prayed in his heart that he would only be a good scrivener and spend the rest of his life in the palace peacefully.
When they arrived at the gate of Qiao Palace, the maid lifted the curtain, and Yunyang got out of the car with Zhang Kejiu's arm.
Standing in front of the palace gate after getting off the bus, Yunyang said: "Qi Ao Palace is windy and watery, with a wide field of vision, and the beautiful scenery of Tianyuan Pond can be seen at a glance. ”
Zhang Kejiu replied on the side: "It is said that the location of this palace is a treasure land, but there is a remnant hall not far from the north, and I heard that it was originally the sleeping palace where Emperor Song Xian lived." ”
When Yunyang heard this, his heart couldn't help but tremble: "Is this a coincidence or an intentional arrangement, if it is intentionally arranged, Emperor Xiaoya knows my background?" ”
She was shocked, and the expression on her face also revealed a little.
Zhang Kejiu took a look at it, thinking that she disliked this place because the remnant hall of the Song Kingdom was nearby, and while regretting that she had said the wrong thing, she said with a smile: "Actually, this remnant hall is very far away. There is also a herb-filled garden across the street called Eisui Orchid. ”
Yunyang glanced at him and knew that he had misunderstood himself, so he smiled faintly: "Father-in-law is too careful." In fact, I have always respected Emperor Song Xian's literary style, and it is indeed an honor to know that I can look at the dormitory where he lived. ”
Zhang Kejiu didn't dare to say more for a while, so he suppressed his voice and sent Yunyang into Qiao Palace.
I don't know if I haven't slept well because I've been scared for the past few days, or if I've been infected with the wind chill by sleeping in the open air, and as soon as I enter the main hall, Yunyang can't support it anymore. His legs were limp, and his face was sweating profusely.
They helped her into the inner sanctum, and lay her down. A personal palace maid named Sui Su looked at Yun Yang's pale face and asked cautiously, "Did Lord Scrivener eat this morning?" ”
Yunyang shook his head weakly: "I'm afraid the last time I ate was a day ago." ”
Everyone in the palace was surprised when they heard this, and another personal palace maid hurriedly said, "The maid is going to prepare." ”
Zhang Kejiu whispered beside him: "Don't take sticky dim sum, only use thin noodles and soup." ”
After a while, he held the lacquer plate and brought up a bowl of five-fruit yam and astragalus soup.
Probably already hungry, Yunyang didn't have much appetite, so he only ate two bites of the pale yellow honey cheese floating on the soup, and pushed the bowl away.
Sui Su served her beside her and rinsed her mouth. Yunyang only felt tired, couldn't open his eyes for a while, and fell asleep groggy.
When I woke up, it was almost dusk.
Yunyang sat up straight from Huang Huali's platform bed, and looked down to see that he had been changed into a silver-red satin jacket by the palace maid at some point.
After getting out of bed, Yoonyang found the inner sanctum empty. walked to the table, touched the Ruyao lotus pot on the table, the tea in it was still warm, and then took two sips.
Maybe he was in a hurry, and after putting down the teacup, Yunyang coughed a few times somehow.
"Are you awake?" A deep voice came from the outer hall.
This voice was so familiar that Yunyang's heart couldn't help but "thump" twice.
She passed through the mahogany carved hanging flower door that separated the inner hall and the outer hall, and saw Zhao Yuanzheng sitting on the jade arhat bed with his hands on his knees.
The yellowish sunset light shone on his face from the side, and half of his face glowed with a faint golden light. The light passes through the bridge of his towering nose, plunging the other half of his face into mysterious shadows.
But whether it was on the light side or the shadow side, his eyes were always shining brightly.
Yun Yang saw that between the light and dark contrasts, his angular face became more and more handsome.
"Has the emperor waited for a long time? The little girl is rude to snooze, and she asks the emperor to punish her! ”
"Reprimand?" Zhao Yuan stood up and walked towards Yunyang: "Why do others want to be rewarded, and the first thing you asked me to do was to punish you?" ”
