Chapter 29 Fengqi Pavilion

Early in the morning, Mama Qin came to the Jiaofang Palace, she took Ling Xi around the harem, and began to familiarize Ling Xi with the palace of the harem. Ling Xi walked from Guanju Palace to Xiyan Palace in this way, and she realized that the backyard of this palace was so big, and in one morning, she had only seen the north and south palaces.

"The queen mother, there are three palaces and four palaces in the harem, the east and west twelve courtyards, the three halls are His Majesty's Feiyu Palace, the queen's Jiaofang Palace, and the prince's Linhua Palace, the four palaces refer to the West Palace Yixiang Palace, that is, the palace where the Queen Mother lives, the East Palace Yinghua Palace, the South Palace Guan Ju Palace and the North Palace Xiyan Palace. According to the harem regulations of Dongyu Kingdom, the titles of the inner women are the first queen, the second concubine, the fourth lady, and the nine beauties, as well as the female history, and there is no limit to the number of women. However, in the year when His Majesty was established, the number of women in the house was at most half of the regulations. Mama Qin accompanied Ling Xi on the green path of the harem and said to Ling Xi slowly.

"That means that Your Majesty is now in the harem, at most there are a queen, a concubine, a second lady and five beauties?"

"After Your Majesty's wedding, there are not many concubines in the harem, and now there are no concubines, only two ladies and three beauties. There are also some that are just the history of the royal women around His Majesty. Mama Qin patiently explained to Ling Xi.

"Your Majesty's Flying Feather Hall seems to be in the direction of the East Palace."

Only then did Ling Xi understand that Wang Shuyue's Yinghua Palace was so close to Xiang Hongxuan's Feiyu Palace, and the queen mother took great pains to let Wang Shuyue embark on the road of favoring the concubine.

"After the Dongyu Kingdom, His Majesty the Emperor's Feiyu Hall is in the east of the harem, and the Empress Niang's Jiaofang Hall is in the west of the harem. The Jiaofang Palace is closer to the Queen Mother's Yixiang Palace, and the Feiyu Hall is closer to the Prince's Linhua Palace. ”

Ling Xi couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, Mama Qin really knew how to avoid the important and light, it should be said that Xiang Hongxuan's Flying Feather Hall was closer to the Lingering Palace. And she is a wife who is marrying a Ming media, and she actually lives with her husband in the east and west, the palace is so big, what is the difference between this and Lao Yan's separation. Could it be that the emperors of the Eastern Yu Kingdom in the past dynasties did not want to see their queens, or is it that the heart-wrenching love like the Heavenly Saint Emperor and the Martial Saint Empress is not something that ordinary people can understand, so the emperor and queen need distance to produce beauty? Regardless of whether the other emperors and queens are not in harmony or not, Ling Xi knows that at least Xiang Hongxuan just doesn't want to see her, and it is estimated that Xiang Hongxuan can't wait for Jiaofang Hall to go farther away and get out of the harem.

Suddenly, Mama Qin stopped and stood next to a courtyard, Ling Xi looked up and saw that there was a plaque of Fengqi Pavilion hanging at the door of the courtyard.

"Queen Mother, this is the Fengqi Pavilion in the East Courtyard, that is, the Cold Palace." Mama Qin said quietly.

"Fengqi Pavilion." Ling Xi muttered in his mouth. The name of this cold palace is also quite interesting, the emperor is the dragon, the queen is the phoenix, and the phoenix pavilion? I don't know, I thought it was the queen's bedroom. Could it be that the emperor's beloved ones are all in the cold palace, and the furnishings are only in the Jiaofang Palace, thinking of this, Ling Xi's face couldn't help but smile bitterly.

With a bang, the door of Fengqi Pavilion opened, and a woman in her thirties came out, she quickly walked in front of Ling Xi and fell to her knees.

"The palace man Yan family visits the queen mother."

"Queen Mother, this is the housekeeper aunt of Fengqi Pavilion, Yan," Mama Qin whispered to Ling Xi that she was afraid, and then she immediately turned around, looked at Aunt Yan, and said to Aunt Yan in a stern tone: "Aunt Yan, you have to take good care of the Liu family, don't make a mistake, otherwise the Queen Mother will not let you go." ”

"The villain knows." Aunt Yan was expressionless, and replied to Mama Qin without humility or arrogance, as if she didn't care about Mama Qin's words. Ling Xi always felt that this Aunt Yan kneeling in front of him had a sense of arrogance, not like a palace person at all.

"Mama Qin," a call came from inside the Fengqi Pavilion, Liu Manzhi had already trotted to the door of the Fengqi Pavilion, she was clinging to the door, not daring to step out of the gate of the Fengqi Pavilion, and looked at Mama Qin with her eyes.

Mama Qin hurriedly came to Liu Manzhi's side, she blessed Liu Manzhi, and asked with concern: "Niangniang, what are you missing here, just ask the palace people to tell the old slave, the old slave has arranged everything for you, if the palace people here don't care about serving you, you just have to tell the old slave, and the queen mother will definitely make the decision for you." ”

"Mama Qin, you go back and talk to your aunt, so that I can get out of this Fengqi Pavilion and walk around outside, this Fengqi Pavilion is too small, not to mention a third of the Jiaofang Palace, and it is dilapidated everywhere, no matter how many things my aunt sends in, it is useless, everything is in ruins, I am too aggrieved here."

As she spoke, tears soon appeared on Liu Manzhi's face, and she looked a little pitiful. Mama Qin was also a little embarrassed after listening to Liu Manzhi's words, the Queen Mother could send Liu Manzhi to Fengqi Pavilion to Jinshan Yinshan, but she couldn't let Liu Manzhi out of the harem for half a step, and she could only stay in the cold palace after the abolition, no one could change it, and neither could the Queen Mother.

"The old slave went back and told the Queen Mother, Niangniang, you have to take care of your body, and you have to be relieved." Mama Qin continued to enlighten Liu Manzhi.

Liu Manzhi saw Ling Xi not far away, the dazzling dress on Ling Xi's body made Liu Manzhi recognize at a glance that this was the queen's dress, and suddenly her face was a little angry, she pointed to Ling Xi and asked Mama Qin, "Who is she?" ”

"She is Your Majesty's newly married queen mother." Mama Qin whispered.

Liu Manzhi smiled bitterly, it turned out that the person who took over her position was such a woman who was not good-looking, she thought that Xiang Hongxuan would choose a beautiful queen. If she hadn't been abolished, with Ling Xi's appearance, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to enter the harem, in the end, she had fulfilled Ling Xi, and when she thought of her difficult situation in the cold harem, she suddenly became extremely disgusted with Ling Xi.

"This is a joke to see me, don't be too proud, you may not be able to sit firmly in the position of the queen." Liu Manzhi yelled at Ling Xi, so frightened that the palace people and the chamberlains didn't dare to make a sound.

Ling Xi was stunned, it turned out that this was the abolished queen, she slowly approached Liu Manzhi's body, she knew that Mama Qin was staring at her, and wanted to know how she would refute Liu Manzhi. Although Liu Manzhi was deposed, there was the Queen Mother behind her, and Ling Xi did not dare to slack off. And Ling Xi is not annoyed by Liu Manzhi's rudeness to herself, because she is right, she is the queen, her husband does not love, her mother-in-law does not want to see her, and there are a group of unconscious harem concubines, and she is not in a good position to sit in the queen.

"Niangniang, seeing that your face is not good, Xu is overly worried and hurt your body, it is windy outside, you better go back to Fengqi Pavilion to rest first." Ling Xi waved her hand to Aunt Yan, and Aunt Yan soon came to Ling Xi's side.

"Aunt Yan, go and ask Niangniang for a royal doctor, and then grab more tonics, Niangniang is in a bad mood, you have to serve carefully on weekdays, if you dare to slack off, this palace will not spare you."

Aunt Yan walked towards Liu Manzhi knowingly, and was about to help her into Fengqi Pavilion, only to see Liu Manzhi sneer, and said with some disdain: "Don't cry and fake mercy, this palace is waiting for you here." After saying that, she glanced at Ling Xi proudly, and walked back to Fengqi Pavilion.

Ling Xi followed Liu Manzhi's figure, she leaned out curiously, and looked slightly into the Fengqi Pavilion, sure enough, the Fengqi Pavilion was overgrown with weeds, and the palace walls were also a little dilapidated. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's special care of Liu Manzhi, maybe the decay of Fengqi Pavilion would be several times worse than now. However, after all, Liu Manzhi once lived in the palatial Jiaofang Palace, and when he arrived in such a dilapidated cold palace, it was naturally difficult to accept. Even if the Queen Mother can decorate the house where she lives exquisitely, it can't fill the frustration in Liu Manzhi's heart. But if she arrives in this cold palace one day, maybe she is really not as good as Liu Manzhi.

"Not far in front of the queen mother is the Flying Feather Palace, do you want to go to Your Majesty?" Mama Qin said coldly, as if she intended to lead Ling Xi to the Flying Feather Palace.

Ling Xi came back to her senses suddenly, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, it turned out that the cold palace was so close to the Feiyu Palace, and the emperors of the Eastern Yu Kingdom who were affectionate were quite affectionate towards the women in the cold palace, at least in terms of distance than the empress. Today, Mama Qin probably deliberately brought her to the cold palace, no matter what the purpose, she didn't want to take Mama Qin to the Feiyu Palace now, originally Xiang Hongxuan didn't want to see her, and then let him see that as soon as he entered the palace, he was close to the people in the Queen Mother's palace, so Xiang Hongxuan couldn't dislike her.

"No, Your Majesty has political affairs to do, let's go back." Ling Xi said lightly.

Suddenly, the ginkgo behind him shouted, Ling Xi turned around and looked, only to see that in the distance, a guard guarding the door entered the harem, as if he was looking for someone, looking left and right.

After hearing Ginkgo's voice, the man looked at Ling Xi, not only did he not run away in fright, but walked slowly towards them.

"Presumptuous, come on, come and stop that guard." Ling Xi shouted with some anger.

"Queen Mother, don't panic, this is the son of Wang Shao, the chief of the halberd, I'm afraid I'm here to find the old slave." Mama Qin hurriedly explained to Ling Xi.

Ling Xi was stunned, the halberd chief? Isn't that the head of the guard guarding the gate of the inner palace? Today she opened her eyes, and they all said that the inner courtyard of the palace was heavily guarded, how could such an outer palace man be in the harem like visiting his own home, even if he was a guard, this was not in line with the rules, and no one cared about such a grand palace in the harem. Ling Xi thought that Mama Qin called that man Wang Shao in her mouth, and this Wang Shao came to find Mama Qin again, what did he have to do with the relatives of the Wang family? Ling Xi's heart couldn't help but mutter.

Maybe Wang Shao was frightened by Ling Xi's roar, Wang Shao didn't dare to go to Ling Xi again, he lowered his head and stood on the side of the path, avoiding Ling Xi's gaze.

"The queen mother, the queen mother has something to do with Wang Shao's son, and the old slave will leave first." After saying that, Mama Qin saluted Ling Xi, and hurriedly left the east courtyard with Wang Shaogongzi and walked in the direction of Yixiang Palace.
