Chapter 617: Inside Lufang Garden
"This is an extremely powerful person," Yang Muyun sighed: "In terms of scheming, this King of Annam is much deeper than the Ming Emperor who was far away in Beijing. ”
"I think the king is quite kind," Zheng Yu said, "but that Ruan Chi is very hateful, and he has repeatedly fanned the flames in front of the king......
"Without the secret instruction of this king of Annan, how dare he, a courtier, do this? You must know that casually interjecting in front of the king is a big taboo, Ruan Chi has been immersed in officialdom for a long time, can he know this rule? Yang Muyun shook his head and glanced at her and said, "You are still too young." ”
Zheng Yu sighed a few times and said unconvinced: "Are you very old?" Not like me, but only sixteen. ”
Yang Muyun smiled slightly, without arguing, although he was as young as Zheng Yu, it can be seen that his knowledge is much stronger than her. After all, there is no vain treatment in the Ming officialdom, Annan is independent from China, its culture is the same as that of the Ming Dynasty, the rules of officialdom are naturally the same as the Ming Dynasty, and the meaning of the words and deeds of the Annan monarchs and ministers Yang Muyun, an insider, can't see it.
Seeing that the monarchs and ministers of Annan had entered the city, Yang Muyun and Zheng Yu also followed behind.
Annam capital Tokyo is ancient China's Jiaozhou, after the five dynasties of the Song Dynasty Annam out of China, the founding monarch of the Li Dynasty Li Gongyun changed the city of Jiaozhou to Thang Long City, after the successive dynasties of Annam are capital, Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty received Annam as Jiaozhi, renamed Dongguan, and changed to Tokyo after Li Li restored the country.
After Yang Muyun entered the city, he felt that the architectural layout here was no different from the city of Daming, if the scale was not as good as that of the southern capital of Daming and Jingshi, but it was larger than the general state capital of Daming.
It may be that the region is southern, here is green everywhere, and the lakes in the city are everywhere, giving Yang Muyun the feeling of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
The people of Annam welcomed them, they rushed to see the demeanor of the king and ministers, the city was crowded with people, Yang Muyun roughly estimated that the population of the capital city of Annam like Tokyo should be no less than 200,000.
"Mu Yun," Zheng Yu's eyes flickered towards Yang Muyun, "How are we compared to the capital of the Ming Dynasty here?" "It seems that this little Nizi's sense of superiority is quite strong, and she even compares the capital of a small country of Annan with the capital of the Great Ming Dynasty.
"It's okay," Yang Muyun smiled faintly, "This place looks similar to my hometown Huzhou Mansion." ”
"What?" Zheng Yu was a little incredulous, "Is a Huzhou Mansion that big?" ”
"Well," Yang Muyun nodded, "Huzhou Mansion is not big, and the Zhejiang provincial capital of Hangzhou and the southern capital of Jinling are much larger than Huzhou Mansion. ”
Zheng Yu's eyes widened in surprise, and he shook his head slightly, "I don't believe it, you like to exaggerate." ”
Yang Muyun smiled helplessly, "If you don't believe me, I can't help it, if you go and see it in person, you will know that what I said is true." ”
"You come from the self-proclaimed Ming Dynasty of the Heavenly Empire, you must think that we are a remote barbarian land?"
"I didn't say that," Yang Muyun glanced at the onlookers in Annan, "at least they give me the same feeling as in Daming." ”
"Hmm......" Zheng Yubei bit her lips lightly, "It's the same, it's not Daming here, you still have to leave here after all, right?" ”
Yang Muyun didn't answer, but pointed to a tall blue-white stone pagoda in front of him and asked, "This tower is built so high, I don't know what it's called." ”
"This is the Baotian Pagoda," Zheng Yu said, "It was built during the Li Dynasty, about three hundred years ago. Then he said proudly, "You've never seen such a tall tower, have you?" ”
Yang Muyun smiled, compared to the Tianqing Temple Pagoda in Kaifeng Mansion, this Baotian Pagoda is like a small witch becoming a big witch. He didn't say it, so as not to hit the self-esteem of the feel-good girl of Annam.
After walking for a while, a tall and magnificent building appeared in front of him, and according to Zheng Yu, this was the royal city of Annam.
Yang Muyun entered the royal city from the south gate, and unlike the Ming Dynasty, the walls and gates of the royal city of Annam were made of cyan striped stone, rather than red bricks and yellow glazed tiles. Judging by the moss in the cracks in the walls, this royal city has been around for a long time.
As soon as he entered the royal city, Yang Muyun found that it was heavily guarded, full of palace guards, and looked like a great enemy.
He and Zheng Yu were blocked out of the Duanmen of the palace, and the reason given by the general of the guard guarding the Duanmen was that officials below the fourth rank were not allowed to enter unless summoned by the king.
But seeing Daddy enter, Zheng Yu was a little uneasy after all, and argued with the guards at the palace gate.
"We are Hou Ye's personal guards," Zheng Yu did not reveal his identity, "Why can't we go in with Hou Ye?" ”
"This is the palace of the king," the general of the Praetorian Guard said unceremoniously, "Do officials still have to bring guards when they meet the king?" ”
"You ......" Zheng Yu was very angry and wanted to say more. But I saw that the general smiled and said: "Little girl, it's quite interesting that you have this mask on your face, are you ugly and afraid of seeing people?" Otherwise, how about you take off your mask and let General Ben take a look, and if you're satisfied, let you in? ”
Zheng Yu was furious, and as soon as he pulled out half of his sword, he was stopped by Yang Muyun.
"The little girl drew her sword in anger," the general stroked his palm and smiled, "Which of you will play with her?" His eyes looked at the guards.
"If she takes off her mask, I'll compare it to her." One of the guards laughed.
"Ignore them and go!" Yang Muyun couldn't help but say, pulled Zheng Yu up and turned around and left.
Listening to the laughter behind him, Zheng Yuyi gritted his silver teeth and said, "Why don't you let me teach them a good lesson?" If you hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted them to look good. ”
"And then? If you dare to do this, you won't want to leave here today. Yang Muyun said in a low voice: "Is the palace a place where people can go wild? Aren't you causing trouble for Master Hou? ”
"I'm ......" Zheng Yu stomped his foot, and had to swallow the anger in his chest.
"Didn't Master Hou take you into the palace?" Seeing her impulsive appearance, Yang Muyun asked a little strangely.
"No," Zheng Yu shook his head slightly, "The king came to our house once, he spoke very kindly to Daddy, and he also had a good attitude towards me, but he didn't want the people under him to be such a bastard!" She said angrily.
"No wonder ......" Yang Muyun smiled slightly, this eldest lady of the Hou Mansion has not seen much of the real world, no wonder she can't hold back. The eldest lady has a noble status, so why should she be angry with these people? He advised.
"Also," Zheng Yu's eyes flickered, "These pickled talents, Miss Ben is too lazy to pay attention to them!" After a slight pause, "Mu Yun, you go back with me to meet my aunt, she will definitely like you very much when she sees her!" ”
"Uh......" Yang Muyun's face moved slightly, but his steps slowed down.
"Mu Yun," Zheng Yu asked again, "Is it really okay for my father to go in?" ”
"Probably not," Yang Muyun said: "Hou Ye is cautious and low-key, and besides, he has just returned from making a great achievement, how can the king immediately embarrass a great hero?" ”
"I'm relieved to hear you say this," Zheng Yu said, "I'm afraid that Ruan Chi and his henchmen will attack my father at the banquet, and then the king will favor ......them again."
"No," Yang Muyun comforted her: "Master Hou's sense of proportion has always been very good, and he will not give those people a chance to make trouble, the eldest lady can rest assured." ”
The two of them talked and came to the south gate of the royal city.
I saw an old eunuch in a dark blue robe walking up with a smile on his face and asking, "May I ask who is Yang Muyun Yang Gongzi from the Ming Dynasty." ”
"I am," Yang Muyun saluted him, "May I ask my father-in-law something?" ”
"The king wants to see Yang Gongzi," the old eunuch said with a smile: "Gongzi, please come with the miscellaneous family!" ”
"Oh?" Yang Muyun and Zheng Yu glanced at each other, "Didn't the king feast with his ministers to Marquis Zheng?" ”
"Yang Gongzi is right," the old eunuch said: "The king and all the adults are feasting in the Zhijing Palace, and the special miscellaneous family took Yang Gongzi to Lufang Garden to wait," said one side and made a gesture of invitation, "Yang Gongzi, please!" ”
"Well, father-in-law, please!" Yang Muyun had no choice but to turn around.
Zheng Yu also turned around with him and wanted to move, but was stopped by the old eunuch.
"The king has ordered," the old eunuch said with a smile: "I only ordered the miscellaneous family to take Yang Gongzi alone, and the girl should stop." ”
"Father-in-law......" Zheng Yugang wanted to speak, but saw Yang Muyun say to her: "Since father-in-law said so, the eldest lady should stay," lowered his voice, "Don't worry, I won't be fine." Master Hou will not have anything to do, the eldest lady must be calm in everything, and must not be impulsive! As he spoke, he arched his hand to her, turned around and went with the old eunuch.
....
Yang Muyun followed the old eunuch through a long road, turned into a corner gate, and a lake appeared in front of him, rippling blue waves. The two of them walked along the path by the lake to a temple with flying eaves and arches, and the old eunuch nodded slightly to the two guards guarding the door of the temple, and the two opened the temple door.
"Young Master Yang, please-" The old eunuch did not move, but said: "The king will come over after the banquet and drink, and invite Yang Gongzi to come in and wait." ”
"Well, there's Father-in-law." Yang Muyun bowed and walked inside.

Since that hurricane blew himself to the shores of Annam, he began a series of adventures in Annam, until today he came to Tokyo, the capital of Annam, where he stands. There is some suspicion between Zheng Ke and Li Yuanlong, and he knows it. Could it be that I was brought in because of this kind of dislike? It stands to reason that he is just an insignificant little person, so small that it is impossible to attract Li Yuanlong's attention, but Li Yuanlong noticed him, and asked him some words, and when he was asked that he was from Huzhou Mansion in Zhejiang Province of the Ming Dynasty, the face of the king of Annam did not have a surprised expression, as if he already knew his identity. No, Yang Muyun suddenly understood a little, Zheng Ke's army must have secret agents from the imperial court, and they will secretly report everything they can hear to Li Yuanlong.
When Zheng Ke's army was still dozens of miles away from Tokyo, Li Yuanlong had already led his ministers to greet him outside the city gate, which showed that he knew the progress of Zheng Ke's army well. Such a king is by no means as simple as his appearance of charity. Yang Muyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze fell on the black lacquer screen, the picture on the screen did not seem to be an ordinary figure painting, but a picture of a battle...... Yang Muyun's eyebrows were raised, and he could see clearly that the other party was wearing a red mandarin duck battle jacket, which turned out to be the army of the Ming Dynasty.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard a "crunch" from behind, and the two door panels closed.
Yang Muyun was stunned and stopped.
The hall is quiet, there is no one, the beast ding incense burner in the corner of the wall emits curling cigarettes, and in front of it is a large screen with black lacquer inlaid landscape figures. Yang Muyun didn't dare to walk around, so he stood still in front of the screen, and his heart couldn't help but be full of thoughts. Why did Li Yuanlong, the king of Annam, let him bring himself here? Is this a good thing or a bad thing? When he thought of this, he felt a little apprehensive in his heart.
