After a few days of traveling, Tang Ying and Li Chunfeng finally returned to Chang'an, where they had been thinking about it for a long time. Riding into Chang'an City from the Chunming Gate in the east of the city, you will be greeted by the bustling atmosphere of the world's largest metropolis. The thriving street scenes all depict the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the peace and contentment of the people.

The two of them have gone through so many difficult and strange things, and only when they see all this will they sincerely feel satisfied and worthwhile.

It was the first year of Linde (664 AD). As early as last year, that is, in the second year of Longshuo, Daming Palace was officially put into use, opening the glorious time when the emperor was in power here for more than 200 years. However, at this time, Daming Palace was renamed Penglai Palace, probably in order to benefit the auspicious color of longevity. It's just that Tang Ying is too impressed by the name Daming Palace, so he will always say it wrong.

She blamed a certain TV series more than once, if it hadn't left her with the impression that "Daming Palace" was too deep and beautiful when she was young, it would not be so difficult to remember the name Penglai Palace.

The palace is located in the northeast corner of Chang'an City on the dragon head plain, it was originally a palace built by Li Shimin for Li Yuan, but Li Yuan died without waiting for repair, so this majestic and gorgeous palace has been shelved.

It wasn't until Wu Mei became queen that the project was restarted. The external reason is that it is said to improve the environment for Emperor Li to recuperate. In fact, it is to escape the deep-rooted yin qi of the Taiji Palace. And there are so many memories here that she will never want to talk about. The deaths of Concubine Xiao Shu and Queen Wang are always nightmares that she will never forget, and Princess Andingsi, who only stayed in the world for a month, is also an eternal pain in her heart.

Therefore, she has too much reason to rebuild Penglai Palace. And, now, too, she has the right to decide everything.

Tang Ying and Li Chunfeng broke up after passing through the East Market. Li Chunfeng's first thing naturally returned to his post in Chang'an City. And Tang Ying went straight back to Penglai Palace.

The palace complex has a circumference of more than 7.6 kilometers and an area of about 3.2 square kilometers, four times the size of the Forbidden City in Beijing. There are a total of 11 city gates, and there are sandwich cities on the east, west and north sides; Guarded by three palace walls in the south, it is the most magnificent and largest palace complex in ancient China, and it is also one of the grandest and largest palace complexes in the history of the world.

The whole palace can be divided into two parts: the former court and the inner court, the former court is mainly for the court, and the inner court is mainly for residence and banquets, which is not much different from the original Taiji Palace. It's just a change from the steady and atmospheric architectural style of Taiji Palace, where the posture of fairyland is highlighted, the building is more solemn and exquisite, and the garden is more ethereal and chic.

To the south of Danfeng Gate, the main gate of Daming Palace, there is Danfengmen Street with a width of 176 meters, and to the north are the three most important halls of Penglai Palace, such as Hanyuan Palace, Xuanzheng Palace, and Zichen Palace. In addition, there is the north-south central axis composed of Penglai Palace, Hanliang Palace, Xuanwu Palace, etc., and most of the other buildings in the palace are distributed along this axis.

Tang Ying passed through the first two palace walls, and was about to walk towards the Chongming Gate of the third palace wall through the History Museum, when he suddenly saw two teenagers walking in front of him. Wearing a golden crown, thick black hair, clear eyebrows, a luxurious moon-white silk robe, a belt with a gorgeous pattern of gold thread around his waist, and a black square head on his feet, he was walking steadily towards the Chongwen Hall in the west. Behind him came a short boy in a red robe, who was not tall but also pretended to be a little adult, holding a book and shouting, "Brother Huang, you have taken this one less!" ”

The older boy stopped and waited for him, and the kind result book looked at the cover, and said to him softly, "Master will not talk about this book today, and besides, you are too young to read it." ”

The young boy was not convinced: "I am only two years younger than you, and besides, the queen mother said that I spoke earlier than you, so I can read as much as you can." ”

Tang Ying looked at the two familiar children with relish for a long time, and when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

The two teenagers immediately looked back at her vigilantly, she felt out of shape, and hurriedly coughed twice and saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince, see King Pei." ”

Prince Hong recognized Tang Ying and hurriedly greeted him kindly, "Hong'er has seen my aunt." "Because Tang Ying's identity to the outside world has always been Wu Mei's cousin, since these children are sensible, they are all called aunts. Tang Ying nodded with a smile and turned his head to look at Li Xian. saw him looking at her angrily, his big crystal eyes seemed to have a little tears, but he didn't say hello.

Tang Ying remembered that before he went out, the child came to be coquettish when he still found an opportunity. How is it that in just over a month, the attitude has changed so much?

She thought that she was blaming her for being away from the palace for too long, and that he was losing her childish temper, so she clapped her hands and opened her arms, and teased him as before, saying, "Come, let my aunt hug!" ”

Who knew that this sentence made Li Xian's face red as if it was burning, and he said angrily: "You, don't treat me like a child." Don't think I don't know that you are also the woman of your father! ”

Tang Ying's eyes widened in astonishment after hearing this. Li Hong's face changed when he heard this, he was obviously not surprised by this information, but he felt that it was really unreasonable to embarrass Tang Ying, so he scolded Li Xian and said, "Xian! Hugh is presumptuous! ”

Li Xian still shouted unrelentingly: "You are the same as Sister Helan, you are all bad women!" ”

Li Hong stepped forward and took two steps to grab his sleeve, and scolded solemnly: "What kind of system is yelling here, you shut up for me!" Before the words fell, Tang Ying had already rushed in front of them, raised his hand and slapped Li Xian.

Li Xian was stunned by the fan, and a red finger mark appeared on his face instantly.

Li Hong was also stunned. It stands to reason that Li Xian's identity is more noble than Tang Ying, but Tang Ying is an elder who watched them grow up after all, and he has a special identity. For a moment, he didn't know who to be on.

"You, how dare you hit me?" Li Xian shuddered and said this, and his arrogance disappeared without a trace.

Tang Ying condescendingly looked at the child who had just reached his chest, and said coldly: "I beat you, first of all, because as a person, you don't know what benevolence and righteousness are!" When your mother gave birth to you, it was this bad woman in front of you who brought you into this world with her own hands! Secondly, as a junior, you don't know the basic etiquette, and it's really embarrassing to scold me if you don't call me up when you meet! Third, as a prince, you have neither the backbone nor the brain, and you believe rumors casually, how can you take on important responsibilities in the future? This slap of mine is to teach you a lesson for your parents, don't think that you will be great when you grow up, learn more from your brother! ”

Li Xian was speechless when he said this, he had obviously never been so wronged, his face was very ugly, and he threatened to sue the emperor and queen to save a little face.

After hearing Ha Lu Ha Da laugh, Tang Ying pointed to the tip of his nose and said, "If you don't sue me in front of them tonight, you will not believe your words." Hmph, little brat! ”

When Li Xian heard the title of the most reluctant, he finally cried like a child. Li Hong persuaded him at first, but the more he cried, the more he didn't stop, and he even sat on the ground. Tang Ying couldn't bear it anymore and said to Li Hong: "Why hasn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gone to the academy yet?" ”

Li Hong was so frightened that he took a step back, his eyes wandered back and forth between her and her younger brother a few times, and finally hurried towards the Hongwen Pavilion.

Tang Ying clapped his hands proudly and said to Li Xian: "You, cry casually here." This girl is no longer accompanied. After saying that, he walked towards the inner court as if no one was around.
