The architectural pattern of Nanmu Imperial Palace is not the same as the courtyards of ordinary Nanmu folk houses, with very distinct local ethnic characteristics, but is very similar to the architectural style of "two entrances inside and outside, four flats and three columns" in the Central Plains.

In the overhead era of Zhifeng thousands of years ago, the so-called "two inside and outside, four flat and three columns" is unified in the architectural layout of the imperial cities of various countries. "Inside and outside" means that the mansions of large families will be divided into outer courtyards and inner houses, and when used to describe the inner palace of the palace, it becomes an outer city and an inner city (Note).

The outer city covers a large area, a high wall separates the pride of heaven from the ordinary people in the imperial city for eternity, and there is a moat around it, as if it is strong enough to resist foreign enemies.

The vast area from the outer city wall to the inner city wall was mainly the camp of the royal guards, such as Long Wuwei, Shenwu Wei, and Yu Lin Wei, as well as a large number of places where the royal low-level miscellaneous servants lived and lived.

In today's era, countries will also place some contact points of administrative agencies in this region, most of which are state functional organs, that is, such as the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, and other three provinces and six ministries of the official offices are permanently used to deal with urgent affairs, or to transmit news and communicate feelings.

Then there are some large places in the inner city that cannot be accommodated, such as the inner court martial arts arena, a small racecourse, an altar for festivals, and a large artificial lake on which you can raft.

It is not until you enter the inner city that you really come to the so-called Imperial Palace, where there is also a wall separating the inner city from the outer city, and this wall is the so-called Xiao Wall.

Within the Xiao Wall, there are several main halls where the core of Nanmu's power discusses and decides on national affairs, as well as the residence of Emperor Jinghe Qin Yun and his harem family, and is also divided into the outer court for the courtiers to gather and discuss, and the inner court for the living life of the heavenly family.

Zhifeng, Duan Ningmei and the others walked through and controlled the outer city gate is the main gate of the south of the Nanmu Palace, Chaotian Gate, there is a main gate and several auxiliary gates on the southeast, northwest and northwest sides of the imperial city.

Let's just say that the south gate of the imperial city, in addition to the main gate Chaotian gate, there are also the Chengfeng Gate, the Vermilion Bird Gate, the Hanguang Gate, the Duanshu Gate and so on.

The royal relatives and nobles, a group of people with status and above the clan and above enter and exit the imperial city, and the one who walks is the Suzaku Gate, which is dedicated to checking and passing those special news such as the military intelligence and political reports that are sent in, is the Duanxu Gate, and the Hanguang Gate is a cold scholar, and the literati and are looking at Tianyan or entering the palace to try the carp jumping the dragon gate!

Zhifeng and the others went from the outer city to the inner city, and the straight-line distance was about five miles away, and on the way, there were no less than a dozen groups of Yulin guards and Long Wuwei who were on duty in the palace to inspect and inspect, after all, dozens or hundreds of 'outsiders' rode into the palace at once, which was an unprecedented vision in peacetime, let alone today's eventful season.

It's just that on the official side, there is a little Huangmen Kang San'er pretending to take advantage of the situation to chant the holy oracle, and secondly, there are some loyal and loyal Yulin guards on duty at Chaotianmen who swear to the death of the king, accompanied by the escort and the proof, plus the secret Duan family in the palace and Shiwu should ventilate the news, or find some real and false reasons to prevaricate in a timely manner, Zhifeng and these people did not encounter too many difficulties and obstacles and came to the inner city outside the Xiao wall.

That's right, Xiao Wall is the birthplace of the famous idiom 'woe Xiao Wall', and the palace dispute that has been the most depressing for the emperor's family since ancient times is in this Xiao Wall thousands of times A similar plot has been staged.

In the imperial cities of various countries in the world, the Xiao wall can be regarded as a world of difference compared to the palace walls of the outer city, and in the imperial palace of Nanmu Kingdom, the thin and low Xiao wall is especially like a formalistic existence. It's just that even if it is a papier-mâché wall, the subordinates and the people dare not touch it in the slightest, let alone directly tear it open and break into the inner city.

Coming to the inner city gate at the south Xiao Wall, the little yellow gate Kang San'er shouted loudly and shouted with Duan Ningmei, Zhifeng and his party entered the palace to face the saint, but this time, Ren Kang San'er couldn't let the team enter the inner city together.

This is also easy to understand, don't say that you are a little yellow door just saying that the holy oracle has not yet been used, even if there is really an emperor's edict, it is impossible for the inner city guards to allow your family to come in without re-verification, who knows whether you are loyal ministers or anti-thieves, even if there is only one in ten thousand hidden dangers, no one dares to take this responsibility.

After the final roundup, in the sound of Kang San'er pulling the tiger skin and coercion and temptation of Emperor Jinghe's dictation, the royal guard sergeant on duty in the inner city finally allowed Young Master Duan San'er and the high priest of Xuanyang to enter with five guards and Zhifeng, while Xiahou Haoyue and Cui Niang reluctantly blended into the inner city as famous doctors and maids who needed to rescue the seriously injured Zhigongzi at all times. As for the Duan Family Feiyu and the Kutu Holy Sect members, they could only stare at the Xiao Wall and smell the birds and flowers.

The pattern of the inner city of Nanmu Palace is far more delicate and compact than the outer city, during which the palace buildings and halls are carved and painted everywhere, and the rockery ponds are rippling with rockery and water waves, which makes people feel relaxed and happy at first sight.

It's just Duan Ningmei, Xuanyang and his party of more than a dozen people all looked stagnant, worried, although Xiaohuangmen Kang San'er has already explained the situation in the Taihe Hall in detail enough to everyone, but what happened during this time, whether Jinghe Emperor Qin Yun completely lost control of the situation, where was the weakness of his being grasped by Chang Qing, and whether the lives of the three fathers and sons such as Taifu Duan Jingnan and others were in danger now, and many questions were congested in everyone's hearts, and they just hated to fly to the Taihe Hall immediately with their wings.

Everyone's hearts were anxious and worried about praying to the sky during this time, but it was not in vain to do useless work, Jing He Emperor desperately borrowed Kang San'er's hand to send out a blood letter for help, and the two of them just acted like a double reed of dialogue and behavior, which made Chang Qing puzzled at the same time, not only failed to respond in the first time, but also delayed the situation for less than half an hour in vain, gaining time for Zhifeng and others to enter the inner city, and also making Chang Qing too late to issue another vicious order.

It was in such a seemingly calm but actually dangerous and strange process that Zhifeng and the others finally came to the outside of the Taihe Palace.

Xiao Huangmen Kangsan's loud voice was like a heavenly sound that made Emperor Jinghe almost burst into tears, and the inner servant provincial supervisor, Chang Qing, the chief manager of the inner house, was extremely disgusted as if he had been bitten by a mouse, and the convergence of Xuan Yang and Zhifeng Duan Ningmei was a situation he never expected, and on his side, whether it was Tsing Yi Ming Gong or the general Liu Linjing and other three people, none of them should have come, and even the news did not come in, which made Chang Qing's heart begin to feel uneasy.
