Chapter 427

To seal a palace, a lot of earth and stone is needed to build the walls.

When Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang and others arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw many craftsmen transporting gravel and bricks out one by one.

The guards at the gate of the palace were obviously strengthened, and Zhan Zhao took out the token of Kaifeng Mansion, but it was obvious that the guards had received an order and let everyone in directly without inspection.

The arrival of Mi Mi and Xiao Wu still attracted the attention of many guards, and many of the maids and palace maids who passed by stared at Mi Mi until they hit a tree.

Everyone was going to Zhao Zhen's study first, but Gonggong Chen came to pick them up, saying that it was in the garden.

So they diverted to the garden.

The Imperial Garden is not actually a single courtyard, as a huge garden connecting the various palaces in the center of the palace, it is composed of many different gardens, and the route is complex and there are many scenery, if you really have to walk down, it may take a day or two. Not only the garden, but also several lakes in the middle, some with bridges and some by boat.

He was very obedient with Bai Yutang, but when he saw a lake, he slipped into the lake, and Bai Yutang was helpless.

Gonggong Chen smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, you can't swim away." ”

Bai Yutang said in his heart - it's not that I'm afraid that I'm running away, but I'm afraid that it will suddenly come out of somewhere, and it won't be good to scare people.

"Ahh

Bai Yutang was worried when he heard a scream in the distance.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, followed the prestige, and saw that on the other side of the river, a palace maid didn't know what to do, as if she was frightened, and ran forward in a panic. The path to the garden was already very narrow, and she ran too fast, turning a corner, not beware of the river beach in front of her, and her feet slipped.

By the time everyone saw her, she had fallen into the river.

At this time, several shadow guards jumped down from all sides, and the guards also gathered over, and Gonggong Chen hurriedly shouted, "Save people!" ”

Zhan Zhao saw that the palace maid was struggling in the water and hadn't sunk yet, so he wanted to catch her up, and at this time, he ......

I saw a white splash in the waterhole, and then I saw Mi Mi rushing up from the water, grabbing the palace maid's collar with one paw and bringing the person out.

When everyone understood, they saw the maid flapping her wings, putting the palace maid on the grass in the garden, and throwing the water off the ground.

The palace maid was frightened, choked on the water a few times, and felt that she might die. This sudden change made her stunned, and she forgot to be afraid.

Gonggong Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that someone had rescued him, and motioned for the guards to go and see what was going on.

The guards immediately went to the path where the palace maid ran to see just now, but there was no one outside.

When Zhan Zhao and the others arrived at the palace maid, Xiao Sizi walked over and squatted down to check her pulse, and then raised his face to look at the palace maid's face, and found that he knew her.

"Sister Lianlian."

The palace maid was stunned for a moment, and then she came back to her senses, and when she saw the little fourth son, she shouted with a crying voice, "Little prince!" ”

Seeing her crying, Xiao Sizi stretched out his hand to wipe her tears, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Everyone recognized it, this palace maid is the personal maid next to the Queen Mother, called Qinglian. She has served the Queen Mother for many years, and she is the Queen Mother's favorite palace maid, and she often takes her with her.

Qinglian was soaked, although it was spring at this time, it was still cold when the breeze blew, and there were a large number of men around her, and the girl shrank to the side with red faces and red ears.

Everyone was also a little embarrassed, so Father-in-law Chen wanted to find a dress to put on her.

At this time, I saw a small figure running over, holding a big cloak in his hand, which was crumpled into a large ball, running behind the little fourth son, and dragging the hem of his clothes.

The little fourth son turned around, stunned, and then happy, "Xiangxiang!" ”

Isn't the little doll in front of you just Xiangxiang? In a blink of an eye, Xiao Xiangxiang can already run and jump, with snow-white skin and big eyes, which is extremely cute. She obviously knew everyone too, and she gestured forward with her robe, as if someone had asked her to hold it.

Gonggong Chen took the cloak from Xiangxiang's hand and put it on Qinglian, Qinglian had already gotten up and saluted behind Xiangxiang, "Your Majesty ......"

When everyone turned around, they saw Zhao Zhen, who was dressed in casual clothes, standing there at the gate of the courtyard behind Xiangxiang.

Although Zhao Zhen has always been very easy to get along with, after all, he is the emperor, so it is necessary for everyone to give him a character courtesy, but Zhao Zhen waved his hand and walked down.

Tell Gonggong Chen to take Qinglian to change clothes, and he will ask questions in a while.

Gonggong Chen took Qinglian and left.

Walking in front of everyone, Zhao Zhen looked at it with a raised face, and after a long time, he turned around and asked Bai Yutang seriously, "Male and female?" Cubs? ”

Bai Yutang thought for a moment and nodded.

Zhao Zhen's eyes lit up, and the look in his eyes was obviously - he gave me a cub to raise.

The fourth son tugged at Zhao Zhen's clothes and whispered, "Emperor, I raise thousands of taels of silver a year, and my father counted it that day." ”

Zhao Zhen touched his chin, "Uh...... That's it. ”

As he spoke, he reached out and touched his nose, "I'll take a look......

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a "whoosh" and bit Zhao Zhen's hand.

Moment...... It was as if it was frozen, and there was silence.

After a long time, with the little fourth son, "Ah! With a single voice, dozens of shadow guards fell from all directions, and they all opened their mouths wide.

Bai Yutang supports the forehead...... I'm going to die!

Zhan Zhao was also speechless - the legendary assassin king?

Yin Hou glanced at Tianzun silently, and Tianzun also sighed - it is really suitable for Yutang to raise!

Yin Hou nodded-isn't it, Bai Yutang is such a reliable person, and he is surrounded by troublemakers.

Zhao Zhen was also stunned for a moment when he was bitten, but he didn't seem to be in pain, and waved his hand at the nervous ghosting guards, looking at him with some puzzlement.

He grunted twice, then took a "wow" and seemed to spit out something.

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, and Bai Yutang silently lit a candle for himself......

Then, as soon as he let go, he let go of Zhao Zhen's hand.

Looking again, I saw a round, jade ball in Zhao Zhen's hand.

Everyone was stunned.

Zhao Zhen stared at the ball, then suddenly smiled, wiped the ball on his body, held it in the palm of his hand, and gently patted his neck with the other hand, "It turned out that it fell into the river." ”

Seeing that Zhao Zhen was not injured, the Taishi hurriedly came up and said, "Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?" He is very well-behaved and does not hurt people. ”

Zhao Zhen nodded, signaling everyone not to be nervous, "This ball was played with a lot when I was a child, but I couldn't find it later, it turned out to have fallen into the river, and it helped me pick it up." ”

Everyone was surprised, how did they know that the ball was Zhao Zhen's? Could it be because of the smell of the balls? But think about it, everyone can distinguish the smell of Bai Yutang on Zhanzhao's body, and it is estimated that its sense of smell is particularly special.

The lively fragrance was bouncing around the girl, calling "Long Long" with milk in her mouth, holding Xiao Sizi with one hand and Xiao Liangzi with the other, looking very happy.

Zhao Zhen asked the Taishi to take Xiangxiang and them to the other courtyard, find Concubine Pang and the Queen Mother, and motioned to everyone to come in with him.

Zhan Zhao and the others followed Zhao Zhen into a small courtyard, and saw that Zhao Pu was also in the courtyard, studying a drawing with a young guard.

The guard raised his head, and immediately his face flushed, and he began to stammer.

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched - it turned out to be Ge Qing.

Xiao Geqing hasn't seen him for a while, and he still looks so serious, but it's a pity that this baby was originally very good, and when he saw Tianzun, he immediately felt bad.

Tianzun also saw him, and patted his head, "Ah! Little ravioli! ”

The crowd sighed.

Ge Qing had seen Tianzun appear a few times before, and Tianzun's memory probably didn't remember what his name was at all, but he remembered that he was afraid of wontons, so he called him "little wontons" by the way.

Everyone looked at Ge Qing sympathetically, but Ge Qing was not unhappy or disappointed at this time, on the contrary, his heartbeat was increasing rapidly - Tianzun gave him a nickname! Tianzun called him Little Wonton, does it mean that he is very cute and delicious?

Zhao Pu saw that Ge Qing's face was flushed and was about to catch up with the ripe shrimp, and the whole person was in the form of a wandering spirit, and he was also a little speechless.

Bai Yutang noticed that Zhao Pu was holding a diagram of the internal structure of the house, so he went over to look at it.

"This is said to be the design drawings of the Four Seas Hall when it was built." Zhao Pu is also quite an amateur in this regard, so he gave the manuscript paper to Bai Yutang, and glanced around by the way, slightly puzzled, "What about Gongsun?" ”

"Oh, he's going to dig up Qige's ashes." Zhan Zhao replied, "It is said that it is to investigate the cause of Qige's death." ”

Zhao Zhen was quite curious, "Can this be found out?" Turned to ashes. ”

Zhan Zhao learned the tone of Gongsun and said, "I can find out how she died when she turns to ashes!" ”

Zhao Pu couldn't help but laugh - this nerd is getting more and more capable.

Zhao Zhen looked at the sky and said to Zhao Pu, "Uncle Nine, Dadan is almost here, you hurry up and bring someone to pick it up." ”

"I said it would be tomorrow." Zhao Pudao.

"Don't you say it's possible to arrive early?" Zhao Zhen urged him, "You are so waiting with the Empress Dowager, she hasn't seen Da Dan alone for so long, and she is going to be restless at this time." ”

"It's ......" Zhao Pu felt that he should go back to accompany his mother, so he left first.

Everyone obviously felt that Zhao Zhen was deliberately supporting Zhao Pu.

Zhao Zhen motioned for everyone to sit down, took a sip of tea and sighed, "The matter of Qige is a bit complicated, and I am quite embarrassed. ”

Except for Bai Yutang, who lowered his head and focused on the drawings, everyone else looked at Zhao Zhen.

Zhan Zhao asked with great interest, "Your Majesty, do you also believe that this time it is the ghost of Qige?" ”

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly and said, "I don't believe it, but if she really comes out to make trouble, it is reasonable." ”

Everyone wondered what it meant to be reasonable.

"Qige died strangely, she was cremated hastily without checking it out back then, she has been a lonely ghost for so many years, it is normal to want to avenge her life, or rather, she is still in love with something else, and she is reluctant to ......leave" Zhao Zhen sighed.

"Did the emperor say that she was in love with the Ninth Prince?" Master Pang was curious.

Zhao Zhen frowned, "Qi Ge is a little crazy about Uncle Jiu, if she really becomes a ghost one day, I also think her soul will haunt Uncle Jiu." ”

Everyone raised their faces and thought about it-Zhao Pu is usually very arrogant, and he can't see it......

"The soul of Qige really attacked Zhao Pu?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Zhao Zhen nodded, "I was there that night, it's true!" ”

Everyone felt furious when they thought about it, but they wanted to ask the details in detail.

But at this time, Bai Yutang put down the drawings and asked very concernedly, "This Four Seas Palace...... Who designed it? ”

Zhao Zhen looked at him, "Is there any problem?" ”

Bai Yutang glanced at the drawing again with great concern, "This building...... It wasn't built for people to live in. ”

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched when they heard this-......

Zhao Zhen smiled and asked, "That's not for people to live, but for whom?" ”

Bai Yutang didn't seem to be able to say much.

Zhao Zhen smiled and said to Bai Yutang, "The back of these drawings has the name of the palace, but in fact, the Four Seas Hall is not the full name.

Everyone was stunned.

Bai Yutang subconsciously flipped over the drawings in his hand and saw four big characters on the back - Four Seas Ghost Palace.
