Chapter 113: Entering the Palace

Of course, Zhu Yi ignored Ye Meisu's resentful eyes behind him, he turned around and said respectfully to the rear: "Xuanyuan Zhenren, Chang'an City has arrived, do you need to come out to have a look?" ”

An old and hearty voice replied, "It's finally here, and if I go on, I'm afraid that my old bones will be scattered." As he spoke, a Taoist priest with a white beard and white hair, a purple yang scarf on his head, and a gossip robe came in the gentle breeze. I saw him on the back of a crane and a turtle, with phoenix eyes and eyebrows, a ruddy complexion, and an elegant demeanor, looking quite immortal.

He stood on the bow of the ship and looked around, and exclaimed: "It is worthy of the feet of the Son of Heaven, but it is really a rich and prosperous place!" ”

Xuanyuan Zhenren was also followed by two little Taoist boys wearing navy blue shirts and coats with dark blue heads and thick cloth shoes. They were about eleven or two years old, with round apple faces, red lips, and black hair tied up on the top of their heads, tied into horns. One was holding a handful of dust in his hand, and the other was holding a gourd in his hand, like a pair of fairy children, following behind Xuanyuan Zhenren unusually well-behaved.

Seeing this, Zhu Yi smiled and said, "It's hard to keep the Qing, it's hard to keep the integrity." After meeting the emperor, I will invite you to go shopping and eat delicious food. The food in Chang'an City can't be compared to other places. What donkey meat is burned, mille-feuille shortbread, jujube meat paste, green onion patty, and large meat potstickers are kept so that the corners of your mouth are oily. ”

In the end, it is a half-grown child, who is already at the age of gluttony, and has walked the waterway for more than a month, and the mouth of the guard is clear and upright. When Zhu Yi said this, the eyes of the two widened. A vigorous swallow.

Seeing this, Daoist Xuan Yuan flexed his fingers and knocked on each of the two heads. Then he stroked his white beard and said happily: "Remember, although you are not officially ordained, you can be regarded as a registered disciple of the real person, but you can't eat and drink big meat and meat."

"Yes, master." Keep clear. Shouzheng heard the words, his little face collapsed, and he replied weakly.

Zhu Yi saw this. "Poof" smiled and said, "It's okay, these are snacks, not big meat." If it is a real person, there is a taboo. Our restaurant at the foot of Mt. Fahua is also quite famous. As long as you have tasted it, you will like it. ”

Xuanyuan Zhenren frowned slightly and asked, "That Fahua Temple is on this Fahua Mountain." ”

Zhu Yi said with a smile: "Yes, the incense there is very prosperous." ”

Xuanyuan Zhenren sneered and said, "Hmph, if you have a chance, you must go and see it." ”

Zhu Yi immediately complimented: "The alchemy of real people is famous all over the world, and naturally it is not comparable to those monks who can only chant scriptures and worship Buddha. When Xuanyuan Zhenren heard this, he only smiled slightly. There was a hint of pride on his face.

Seeing the big ship getting closer and closer to the pier, the screams on both sides of the river. The cheers were endless. Whether it is a girl from a civilian family or those rich ladies, they all fell into madness. From time to time, some girls threw handkerchiefs, sachets, and sachets into the boat. Zhu Yi was careless, and the jade crown on his head was distorted by a sachet flying from the sky, looking extremely embarrassed.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Zhenren smiled and teased: "This little girl in Chang'an City is really enthusiastic, but it is the most difficult to accept the grace of the beauty, Prince Rui should be more leisurely." When Zhu Yi heard this, he had to smile bitterly.

The boat quickly and smoothly approached the dock, a wide wooden board connected the dock with the official ship, and the girls crowded on the shore were delighted, and looked in shyly, and the hatch suddenly opened. It was not Zhu Yi who came out first, but a group of extremely strong guards armed with spears, black clothes and black pants. The leader is none other than Zhu Yi's secret guard leader, Xingda. In the disappointed sighs of the girls, he looked around expressionlessly, suddenly waved his hand, and said, "Go." ”

"Yes." The guards' answers were sonorous and powerful, resounding through the sky. scared many unsuspecting girls so much that they subconsciously covered their ears.

Although these guards had been adrift on the water for a long time, they still walked in unison and behaved solemnly. They rushed out, and with the spears in their hands, they scattered without mercy the girls who wanted to gather together and the boys, until a road was vacant in the middle.

In the end, Zhu Yi walked out leisurely, his face was handsome and picturesque, and his gestures revealed an indescribable grace. The luxurious golden robe on his body, the hollow carved white jade belt, and the cowhide boots on his feet all reveal the nobility and luxury that symbolizes his status. Xuanyuan Zhenren also walked out with Shouqing, who was half a step behind him.

As soon as Zhu Yi appeared, he immediately attracted a burst of screams and cheers from all around: "Prince Rui, Prince Rui"

In the midst of the frantic shouting, the people tried to get closer. But Zhu Yi's guards were not vegetarians, and they used the spears in their hands and their bodies to turn into insurmountable copper walls. But there were too many people on the docks, and just as they were feeling the strain, a neat, powerful, dense sound of horses' hooves came from a distance.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw the two leading people wearing moon-white wide-sleeved robes, with scattered black hair, riding a snow-white lion snow. The other, dressed in a dark purple brocade robe and a jade crown, rode a black, curly-haired black horse. They were followed by a large number of black-clad guards armed with spears.

In an instant, everyone fell into an even greater madness: "It's the prince of Shu, and the prince of Guo"

"I didn't expect to see the three of them at the same time today, it's really worth the trip."

"If I could become any of their maidservants, I would be willing to die."

"You? Forget it, have you seen what the maid behind the prince of Shu looks like? With the appearance of you, you don't deserve to lift shoes to others."

Just when they looked at this and that, and only felt that their eyes were not enough, Guo Chengsi waved his hand, and the black-clothed guards behind him immediately stepped forward quickly, and together with Zhu Yi's guards, they built an unbreakable human wall.

Zhu Yi laughed and greeted him, and Zhu Fei and Guo Chengsi also got off the horse and walked towards him. After the three of them hugged each other, Guo Chengsi patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "After walking for such a long time, I see that you are dark." also lost weight, but I was afraid that the Queen Mother would feel distressed again when she saw it. ”

Zhu Fei tilted his head. After looking at him carefully, he smiled, "I think he is a lot stronger." He glanced around again and teased: "I'm afraid that today's grand occasion has spread to the palace, and the Queen Mother will be anxious to help you get married." ”

"Forget it, don't mention that." Zhu Yi smiled nonchalantly and said, "I'll introduce you to someone." ”

He pointed to Xuanyuan Zhenren and introduced to the two: "This is the famous Xuanyuan Zhenren, don't look at his childish face." Spirited. He is now one hundred and eight years old. ”

Ethereal Taoism, cultivation, a miraculous elixir. Charms always make people feel awe. Zhu Fei and Guo Chengsi really restrained the smiles on their faces, bowed their hands respectfully, and said, "I've seen Xuanyuan Zhenren." ”

Xuanyuan Zhenren stroked the white beard on his chin. said with a smile: "The two princes are very polite. ”

Zhu Fei beckoned. A horse-drawn carriage with a jeweled canopy of incomparably extravagant came. Guo Chengsi arched his hand and said: "Please get in the car with a real person, the emperor has been waiting in the palace for a long time." ”

Immediately, a guard placed a delicate pineapple pedal beside the carriage, and then respectfully lowered his hand to the side. Xuanyuan Zhenren smiled with satisfaction, so he led Shouqing and Shouzheng into the carriage together.

Someone brought another incomparable red wind horse, and Zhu Yi turned over and got on the horse. The three of them followed the carriage and drove away under the escort of the people.

Until the three of them walked away. The crowd on the docks gradually dispersed, and the cargo ships. Passenger ships have also resumed their daily work. Ye Meisu was still standing on the painting boat, her eyes staring blankly at the empty official ship in front of her, which had begun to start slowly. She never thought that Zhu Yi would completely forget about herself.

The kabuki on the first floor, as well as the musicians around her, had quietly retreated, and only the loyal Ying'er stood behind her with a worried face. Ying'er saw that her face was a little sad, and her whole body was still trembling, so she couldn't help but persuade: "Miss, it's windy outside, let's go back to the cabin first!" ”

"Go back? Go back and look at their faces and listen to their ridicule? Ye Meisu's thoughts formed a net messily, the net became tighter and tighter, reaching her heart, and after a faint pain, she said sadly: "What should I do?" Ying'er, I'm scared. ”

Without Prince Rui's support, her arrogance, her coldness, and her cleanliness can no longer be maintained. Although she and Yinniang are in a cooperative relationship, Yinniang can't force her to pick up customers or not. But the most important thing in the world is beautiful women, and she believes that it will not be long before she will be replaced by another group of younger, more delicate, and more tender women.

If she can't find a good home at the height of her fame, the riches and glories she longs for will be farther and farther away from her. She doesn't want to have this leisurely and comfortable life, she can see whoever she wants, and she can turn people away if she doesn't want to see anyone. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder.

The more you are afraid of something, the more you will come. Yin Niang walked up step by step, smiling. She shook the handkerchief in her hand, pressed the corner of her mouth, and then said: "Lady, it's really hard to practice for so long for today's grand occasion." ”

Ye Meisu didn't dare to hold it up, so she was busy and blessed, and said: "The sisters are really hard to practice this neon dance. ”

Yin Niang waved her hand indifferently and said, "They have rough skin and thick meat, and they just rehearse a dance, how hard can they be." Speaking of this, a meaningful smile appeared on her face, and she said: "This is just that after this neon dress dance makes its stunning appearance today, it will be performed in Meixiang Pavilion every night, and at that time, I still need your mother's help to accompany them with your beautiful piano sound." ”

Sure enough, without the favor of Prince Rui, this hidden girl was the first to come out and trample, Ye Meisu's body shook slightly, but unfortunately she has no confidence to resist now. I had to lower my eyes and replied weakly, "Yes." ”

Yinniang glanced at her proudly, and left with a sudden laugh. After she left, Ying'er said angrily: "It's really too deceitful, why did Miss agree to her request?" It's not that we don't have money, and we don't sell ourselves to Mei Xiangge, so we really don't walk, so why should we suffer from her.

Ye Meisu smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think that Yinniang will let us go so easily?" Besides, a month ago, a group of thieves from other places saw that people's money was exposed, and wanted to steal it at night, but they were bumped into by the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, which caused a big war, and I heard that many people died in the victim's family. They are a big family, all of them have been ruined by thieves, and our two weak women have a lot of property, where can we go? ”

Ying'er was also silent when she heard this, and suddenly she said categorically: "Miss, let's go and ask Prince Rui!" For the sake of the past feelings, even if he doesn't accept you into Prince Rui's mansion, ask him to arrange your future life for you. It's easy for him to think about it, even Yinniang definitely doesn't dare to interfere with it. ”

Ye Meisu fell down weakly, she whispered and muttered: "You let me think, let me think"

The emperor met Xuanyuan Zhenren alone in the imperial study, and Zhu Yi had not seen the queen mother for a long time, so he naturally went to Cining Palace to ask for guilt. Zhu Fei and Guo Chengsi accompanied him.

The Queen Mother had just met a few ladies who had specially sent a festival gift, and now she was sitting with the eldest princess drinking tea. After hearing the palace maid's proclamation, she immediately ordered the three of them to enter the temple together.

Entering the hall, Zhu Yi, Zhu Fei, and Guo Chengsi were about to bow down, but the Queen Mother personally got up to support Zhu Yi, and she said with tears in her eyes: "My Yi'er! How did you get dark and thin? ”

Even when I went to bring him back, he had been adrift on the ship for more than three months, and now he felt that his feet were still shaking even when he walked, and the pain could be imagined. It can be seen that the Queen Mother comforted her when she heard the words, and looked at her kind face, and he naturally swallowed all those pains. He only smiled, stood up straight and said, "The child is not filial, which makes the queen mother worried." Zhu Fei and Guo Chengsi also stood up.

The eldest princess over there also stood up and said with a smile: "I see that Yi'er is becoming more and more manly, he can come back in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it is a great joy, the Queen Mother should be happy, why are you still crying?" ”

Zhu Yi hurriedly arched his hand and said, "I've seen my aunt." ”

The eldest princess smiled and said, "Don't be polite, let's accompany your queen mother well!" These days, she is looking forward to wearing, thinking that you can't sleep at night, but I am afraid that even the gray hair will come out, you have to comfort and comfort her. ”

"It's not as exaggerated as you say." The Queen Mother laughed when she heard this. She took Zhu Yi to sit down beside her, and asked him to serve some fruits that he usually likes to eat, snacks and tea, and asked him about his experience for more than three months.

Zhu Yi was afraid that the old man would be worried, so he hid the hardships and dangers, and only selected some interesting customs and customs, as well as anecdotes from various places to tell the Queen Mother and the eldest princess. In addition, Zhu Fei and Guo Chengsi added oil and vinegar on the side, which only caused them to scream again and again, and they were full of interest.

Just as he was talking lively, there was a sharp report from the eunuch outside: "The emperor has arrived" (to be continued......
