Chapter 903: Court Battle!
After sleeping until noon, Xiao Zheng woke up leisurely. He booked a hotel service with Tina first and settled lunch in the room. Then he and Tina repeatedly deduced the possible accidents that could occur during the mission. It wasn't until Tina was a little too verbose that Brother Ah Zheng closed his mouth and went back to the living room to watch TV.
Maybe both of them have been on the battlefield for a long time and were once the best partners in the world, so even if this execution is the assassination of the peerless powerhouse Ito. They are also in good spirits. There was no tension at all.
It was six o'clock in the evening. According to the time agreed with Ling Lai, it was time for him to go to the palace where Ling Lai lived.
"See you in the evening." Xiao Zheng smiled at Tina.
"Be careful all the way." Tina said.
"Hmm."
Seeing that Tina gradually became talkative, Xiao Zheng was in a very good mood. In the past, when I spoke to her before the mission, she might have simply responded, or even said nothing, just nodded slightly.
Now, she does talk a lot. People are no longer as silent as they used to be.
Out of the hotel. Xiao Zheng drove directly to the palace. Of course, he couldn't just let the driver park at the entrance of the palace. That's too big a goal - and most importantly, the driver doesn't dare to break into the palace in a taxi even if he is killed.
You know, the Japanese imperial family has been preserved for the longest time so far, and the imperial flag on the wall has never been changed. Whether it has experienced two world wars or countless global crises, the Japanese imperial family has always been passed down from generation to generation.
Of course, this does not mean that the Japanese imperial family is necessarily so strong that no one can defeat it. Rather, throughout the Japanese Empire, the people did not regard the imperial family as human beings, but as gods. Members of the royal family do not even have the hukou of ordinary people, and only exist in the royal family genealogy like black households.
From another point of view, doesn't it prove that there is a world of difference between members of the royal family and ordinary citizens?
Coming to the side gate of the palace agreed in advance, Xiao Zheng just got out of the car, only to see Baidi Mitsui leading a palace maid to come forward. Without waiting for Xiao Zheng to say hello, Baidi Mitsui instructed the palace maid to take out a set of clothes for Xiao Zheng to change into. Then, she first confessed to Xiao Zheng, and then her hands were extremely dexterous and pounded on Xiao Zheng's face. After about three minutes, Baidi Mitsui took two steps back, seemed to appreciate his masterpiece, pursed his lips and said, "Mr. Xiao, this is just a preliminary disguise. In order to prevent the eyes and ears of the palace from seeing the abnormality. When you arrive at His Royal Highness's mansion, I will give you a second disguise. ”
With that, she took out a mirror and handed it to Xiao Zhengdao: "You are familiar with the current appearance, and you can blend into this face as quickly as possible." so as not to reveal flaws. ”
Xiao Zheng took the mirror and looked at it, and was attracted by himself in the mirror.
His eyes are like Tony Leung, his nose is like Wu Yanzu, and his chin is like Andy Lau, and his temperament is very consistent with Chow Yun-fat-
"Grandma Baidi, can you keep me like this forever?" Xiao Zheng asked Ai Ai. Very shy.
"Yes." Baiji Mitsui nodded. "But if the skin is covered under the disguise for a long time, it will age faster than ordinary people, not to mention, it will grow something."
"What does it look like?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Poisonous sores or something." Baidi Mitsui said concisely.
Xiao Zheng was startled, and immediately felt that his face was itchy and unbearable. I really want to tear the foreign object off my face.
But he knew that this was just a psychological effect, so he adjusted his mentality a little and quickly got used to it.
Baidi Mitsui waited for Xiao Zheng to fully adapt to his current appearance, and led him in through the side door.
The Japanese Imperial Palace is different from the atmosphere and grandeur of the ancient Chinese country, but adds a bit of feminine charm and gentleness. But walking in it, passing by groups of dignified and steady palace maids, Xiao Zheng vaguely returned to ancient times. I felt the atmosphere of feudal society.
But in fact, most of the people who can enter the palace to serve now are from famous families, with many requirements, strict rules, and very complicated rules and regulations. It is not as lowly as the palace maids in ancient China. It is even more impossible to say that you will kill it. For today's palace maids, serving in the palace is largely just a high-paying and high-pressure job.
Of course, if he is dismissed by the palace, it will be a huge shame for the palace maid and the entire family behind the palace maid. It's like a student being dismissed from the school, which is extremely humiliating.
In addition to the above differences, the palace is still a place where the struggle for power is more sinister than ordinary society or even huge groups. Where there are people, there will be struggles. Struggle is the driving force of human progress and an eternal and permanent proposition. In any age and in any environment, it must exist.
In the palace, if you keep up with a good master, you will be able to eat and drink spicy food, and you will be prosperous. But if you serve a master who is not valued and has no power position, not only will the working environment be bad, but the quality of life will not be high. Even dignity is easy to be trampled on.
Not only the palace maid, but also the master.
For example, the palace maids around the queen dare to criticize the nobles who are not favored and have no status. The latter could only endure it and did not dare to resist.
Along the way, Xiao Zheng found that the palace maids and waiters who passed by didn't seem to respect the elderly Baidi Mitsui. Even if Baidi Mitsui met an acquaintance and took the initiative to say hello, those condescending palace maids and female officials only glanced at each other and nodded arrogantly. It seems cold and uncomfortable.
"It seems that His Royal Highness is not comfortable living in the palace." Xiao was on an unmanned road and whispered.
"As Mr. Xiao can see, I, an old man who has served His Highness for more than 20 years, do not get any respect. One can imagine what kind of life His Royal Highness lives in the palace. Baidi Mitsui said modestly. But there was still a hint of fierceness in his eyes.
Xiao Zheng pursed his lips slightly, knowing very well the situation of Prince Ling Lainei.
His father was just an ordinary nobleman, and he belonged to the royal family, and although the family was stained, it was difficult for him to fight for any benefits. Her mother disliked Ling Lai as a cripple and felt that there was no need to waste her energy and time on a waste. simply ignored it and lived his own life alone.
And what kind of treatment can a paralyzed daughter who ignores her mother even be treated in the palace?
Baidi Mitsui is such an old palace maid by Ling Lai's side, which can be imagined.
Shaking his head slightly, Xiao Zheng understood very well in his heart. Ling Lai seems to be restrained everywhere and doesn't get any favor, but isn't she working hard to cultivate her own power? Or would she have the guts to kill Ito? How can you reach an alliance with Shang Jingtian's daughter?
As Ling Lai himself said, his leg is broken and he walks less, but he can read a few more books and think about a few more questions.
It seems that this Prince Ling Lainei is not reconciled to this, and still wants to turn over and become an immortal.
"Call your master out!"
As soon as the three of them arrived at the door, Xiao Zheng suddenly heard a quarrel in front of them.
I saw a richly dressed young woman commanding at the embarrassed-looking guards, with a proud face. Obviously, the anger is not light.
