Chapter 238: The Imperial Front
According to the time of the notice, when Lin Hui arrived at the Antai Palace, she was very startled by the royal pomp.
The Antai Hall should take the meaning of the peace of the country and the people, and the emperor has always received the mission here.
Outside the hall, rows of Imperial Guards and Ouchi guards stood up straight like javelins. Walking by, I could feel the sharp eyes on my body, and the pores all over my body were prickly.
This one...... It is probably to embody a brilliant heavenly power and make the foreigners subdued.
Finally climbed more than a hundred steps, only to see that in the court room of the outer hall, there were crowds of people, and many civil and military officials had arrived.
Like Lin Hui, in terms of identity, he is just a "child" who can't be smaller, not even a genuine scholar, of course, he has no qualifications to enter the court, so he can only wait outside the gate.
The Ministry of Rites is estimated to be pouring out of the nest, and low-level officials in green official uniforms are busy and chaotic shuttling around, like big grasshoppers, appearing everywhere from time to time. In the winter, some people are so busy that their heads are hot.
Lin Hui was led to the back of the people in the Tai Hospital.
Lin Hui didn't recognize any of the people who came from the hospital this time.
Cao Yuanju and Imperial Doctor Ma estimated that they had learned from the past, and they still guarded the three-third of an acre of land in the Tai Hospital, and no longer sharpened their heads and drilled into the palace. Doctor Jia and Doctor Hong were not among them.
Not long after Lin Hui stood up, someone led Old Man Shen and Old Man Yao over.
It's good to have someone to be a companion, and Lin Hui's heart is a lot more stable.
Old Man Shen greeted Lin Hui with a smile: "I actually met here." February 26 is my birthday. How about inviting your brothers and sisters to come and sit down? ”
Lin Hui's heart was cold, this old man was obviously going to arrange a blind date on his birthday. Just as he was about to speak, he saw an old man from the Tai Hospital standing in front of several people, suddenly turned his head, looked at Old Man Shen, and said coldly: "No noise here!" ”
Noisy...... Wow......? Well, okay, although Old Man Shen has lowered his voice, the tone is still quite big.
Old Man Shen's signature Maitreya Buddha's smile froze on his face. It's so old. It was said like a reprimand. It's a bit of a face.
It's just that the Shen family has a big business, and there are many children who make a living in the capital, and they still have some scruples about the Tai Hospital. Moreover, on such occasions, it is always impossible to argue regardless of it.
Old Man Shen had no choice but to pout. Stood aside. But wait until he turns back. A thick finger was stretched out. stabbed the man in the back of the heart a few times.
Lin Hui only looked funny, Old Man Shen's temperament. Is...... Old kids.
I saw that the complement on the official uniform of the Tai Hospital was the same as that of Cao Yuan. It seems that this should also be a court judge, no wonder he is so prestigious.
According to the preparation of the Tai Hospital, there is a full hospital envoy, and one or two hospital judges on the left and right. In fact, the judgment of the Cao court is the judgment of the right court, so now this should be the judgment of the left court. There were also two medium-sized imperial doctors standing beside the judges, presumably his descendants.
The cold wind was biting, and at this time they couldn't wear clothes like cloak and cloak, and everyone stood outside for half an hour, waiting to die.
Finally, the sound of the silent whip was heard, and the eunuchs standing at the door shouted and led everyone in.
The four corners of the hall are lit with carbon basins, and the best silver frost carbon is used, and there is no smoke at all. The crowd finally warmed up, and their faces were bloody.
In the huge hall, there were hundreds of officials who entered, and everyone was very familiar with their positions, and they stood according to their ranks. Only the yamen, which does not appear at all under normal circumstances, need special guidance.
After all, the court judge and others had official positions, and they were led to the corresponding places that were temporarily squeezed out. Lin Hui and Shen Yao, the two old men, can only accompany the last position.
After standing for a long time, Lin Hui only felt that her legs were almost numb, and then she heard the sound of neat footsteps outside the temple gate. I saw the envoy of the country of Na Gran coming up from the bottom of the steps, and there were three leaders, the first one seemed to be the envoy, and the latter two were dressed in black and white, and the legendary black and white double evil was a black missionary and a white Mr. Mai.
The members of the mission in the red uniforms at the back were divided into two columns, the front one reached the entrance of the main hall, and the back one was still under the stairs, and there were at least sixty or seventy people. Unlike when they had marched into the city, these men were not only dressed in new clothes, but also wore thick bearskin hats on their heads and carried polished spears in their hands.
Wait a minute! Lin Hui's eyes froze, spear?!
Lin Hui turned his head to look at the throne that was still empty, and felt very surprised. What exactly does the Ministry of Rites do? How can so many people line up with spears?
Although the muzzle of the gun is pointed at the sky, if there is a deliberate disorder, the level is also very fast.
Fortunately, in Lin Hui's memory, such a spear seemed to be very troublesome to load, and the projectile had to be filled in, and it had to be stabbed with a strip to get in place.
That being said, it's hard to guarantee that these people have already filled one in it before.
Lin Hui frowned, staring at the young faces lined up at the gate of the main hall, unable to make up her mind what to do.
Obviously, it is inappropriate to jump out of the corner and let the family put the gun down. With his own little voice, most of the time before the matter was clear, he was treated as a troublemaker and left.
Don't you see many bigwigs in the DPRK and China wearing red robes, all standing solemnly, you are a small citizen who doesn't even have an official rank, what are you yelling about?!
But if you ignore it, your heart will be very awkward.
Between hesitations, I heard the silent whip sound three times in a row, and I don't know where the musicians who were hiding in the hall moved together, the golden bell and jade chime sounded in unison, and in the pleasant sound of the Cheng Cong Cong, the eunuch led the emperor to ascend to the throne.
Behind the emperor, led by Concubine Xie and Concubine Jin, there were more than a dozen concubines in a large line, and Huanpei Jingdong also followed, and sat on both sides of the emperor's throne according to their positions.
Lin Hui's eyes widened. What kind of play is this?
The concubines are all dressed up, and the older Xie Guifei and others are estimated to be in their forties, and under the exquisite makeup, they look like they are only in their thirties.
The young lord should be seventeen or eighteen years old, and on such occasions, he tried his best to dress himself up in a dignified manner, and look old-fashioned.
For a while, the emperor was under the light of the crowd, and the face under the golden crown was quite domineering.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Hui also figured it out.
It's not that the concubines can't see outsiders, but they must see outsiders under the leadership of the emperor. Looking at the appearance of the courtiers, you can know that the appearance of the concubines must be one of the rituals. Only when you come for the first time like this will you feel weird.
The emperor is also a man, and there are so many beauties in the harem, if you don't have the opportunity to bring them out to show off, it will be simply a brocade nocturnal walk, tyrannical things!
I'll show you my woman, ring fat and thin, everything! Let you gentile shallow-eyed fellows drool. (To be continued......)
