Chapter 102: Entering the Palace and Facing the Saint

In the Zhaohua Hall of the Imperial Palace of Jingyang City.

At this time, the hall that should have been empty for a long time was still full of princes and ministers, and the emperor of Yasukuni was sitting high on his dragon chair, discussing things with the ministers below, all of them looked serious, and the atmosphere was a little solemn.

A little eunuch trotted in and reported: "Your Majesty! The envoy of Shan Li Kingdom and the people of the Cloud Mist Pavilion have arrived, and they are waiting for the decree outside the palace! ”

Hearing that the envoy of Shan Li Kingdom and the people of the Cloud Mist Pavilion had arrived, everyone's expressions eased, and a smile appeared on their faces, looking curious, they all wanted to see what the world-famous "Living Hell King" and the famous business wizard looked like.

As soon as the emperor raised his hand and motioned to the personal old eunuch beside him to make a noise, the old eunuch immediately shouted in a sharp voice with their characteristic voice: "The delegation of the Li Kingdom and the Cloud Mist Pavilion are here!" ”

After less than half a cup of tea, the little eunuch at the door sang: "The Shan Li delegation is here!" ”

King Wei led Zheng Yang, Qiu Jing, Qiu Xia and more than 20 officials, large and small, into the Zhaohua Palace.

This is the largest and most luxurious contingent of missions that Yasukuni has ever received, with two princes, a county king, a county lord, and a number of first-class and second-class officials.

The envoy saw the emperor according to the traditional rules and presented a congratulatory gift, and the old eunuch read aloud with the list of envoys and the congratulatory gift list, and it took a lot of time to operate.

While the old eunuch was reading loudly, the officials present in the court looked at the mission curiously, especially the two princes and the young county lord.

I saw that the county lord was not timid at all, and he could stand calmly on this Jinluan hall at a young age, with a royal demeanor.

Qiu Lin had been waiting outside the main hall for the end of the Shan Li Kingdom's mission and then it was the turn of the Cloud Mist Pavilion to meet them, and when it was their turn, it was almost half an hour later.

As the little eunuch's sharp shouts fell, Qiu Lin lifted his senses, straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and then took Su Yun and strode towards the main hall.

Qiu Lin suppressed his excitement and tried his best to put on a steady and deep expression, so as not to expose too much of his emotions.

also told herself not to look at the person in the high position as much as possible, no matter how much hatred this person has with her, for the sake of the children and Wen Qixiao, she must not be impulsive, she is not here to cause trouble.

Since Qiu Lin's figure appeared at the door of the main hall, everyone in the hall looked at her in unison, she always looked straight ahead with an indifferent expression, and walked calmly step by step towards the depths of the main hall with a calm step.

As she approached, the old ministers in the hall were not calm after seeing her appearance clearly, and they looked like they had seen a ghost, and they were stunned and speechless for a long time.

Of course, the emperor sitting on the high seat also saw it, but because the location was a little far away, he couldn't see it very really, but he was really shocked in his heart.

Only Wen Qixiao looked at her very calmly, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Qiu Lin walked to the front with Su Yun, saluted, and said loudly:

"The grass people are the master of the Cloud and Mist Pavilion of the Shan Li Kingdom, see the Emperor of the Yasukuni Kingdom!"

"Su Yun, the deputy pavilion master of the Cloud Mist Pavilion of the Grass Minshan Li Kingdom, see the Emperor of Yasukuni!"

Qiu Lin and Su Yun still maintained the posture of saluting after saluting, and they had not heard the emperor's will to "flatten their bodies" for a long time, and they were wondering what was going on, but they didn't dare to look up.

Just thinking about what this old foolish emperor was going to do, he saw a pair of yellow boots and a large yellow hem appear in front of him, and then a pair of hands held her elbows up, and a familiar and unfamiliar voice sounded in his ears at the same time: "Autumn Pavilion Lord, please get up!" ”

Qiu Lin's body tightened, the person bent lower, his head lowered, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is tormenting the grass people, and the grass people are panicking!" ”

This time, the emperor disregarded the rules and etiquette, and personally stepped down from the high seat to help Qiu Lin up.

The emperor's behavior not only surprised Qiu Lin, but also really shocked the people in the hall, this kind of treatment will only appear on the ministers who have made significant contributions to the country, and as a commoner, but also a commoner from other countries has never enjoyed this kind of treatment.

Although the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces of Yasukuni knew that their emperor attached great importance to the Cloud Mist Pavilion and had always wanted to cooperate with the Cloud Mist Pavilion, this time they also specially invited the Pavilion Master of the Cloud Mist Pavilion to come over to participate in the Longevity Festival. But this kind of flattering relationship is enough to show how much the Yasukuni Emperor attaches great importance to the Cloud Pavilion and how much he attaches importance to the autumn shower.

Wen Qixiao couldn't help frowning, and his heart also twitched, even if he was happy, he was more worried.

If his father really values Qiu Lin and can always go in a good direction, then he and Qiu Lin can walk more smoothly in the future, and it will be relatively easier for his father to accept Qiu Lin.

At the same time, it is also this kind of too much attention, and it is not necessarily a good thing if the limelight is too strong, and in the future, Cloud Mist Pavilion and Autumn Rain may encounter difficulties from some well-intentioned people.

Especially now that the position of the crown prince is vacant, several princes are brothers and friends on the surface, but they are secretly competing, even if he has no intention of deliberately staying away from the center of the dispute, as long as the position of the prince is uncertain, he will not escape the influence of this whirlpool.

I don't know how much impact this will have on Qiu Lin after the two make their relationship public in the future.

Suddenly, he regretted it, he regretted that he was carried away by love and didn't think much about it, and he inadvertently pulled Qiu Lin in so recklessly.

He was already planning to give up his old life here to follow him, and he didn't want to see him hurt a little, even if it was a little implicated.

Zheng Yang and King Wei also frowned slightly when they saw each other, and the two glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of uneasiness in each other's eyes, but they all had a faint look on their faces, and there was no change in mood at all.

The emperor helped Qiu Lin again: "Qiu Pavilion Lord, please get up quickly!" It doesn't have to be so polite! ”

"Emperor Xie!" Qiu Lin followed the emperor's movements and stood up straight, but he still lowered his head slightly, looking like he didn't dare to look directly at the holy face.

The emperor observed the legendary Cloud Mist Pavilion Master in front of him at close range, he was very young, a navy blue robe set off his calm and capable, his face was natural and quiet, there was no trace of panic or timidity when he saw this kind of big scene, and he said in his heart: "Sure enough, he is a young talent, a rare talent!" It's a pity that it's not his Yasukuni people. ”

The emperor looked at Qiu Lin carefully, and didn't speak or move next for a while, just looked at her.

Qiu Lin was a little weak-hearted, thinking that he had recognized her, but after thinking about it, it was impossible, even Wen Qixiao got along day and night without being recognized, and the old faint monarch would never see through it, and he would only think that he had an identical face, so he looked up at him, just met the emperor's gaze, and Qiu Lin was not stage frightened and looked at him directly.

When the old emperor looked up with Qiu Lin and saw her face clearly, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and his exhalation became heavy for a moment, but he was soon suppressed by his years of imperial cultivation.

Resemble! It's so similar!! It's exactly the same!!

Except for the beard, this face is simply carved out of a mold, this red phoenix eyes, this straight nose, this slightly upturned corners of the mouth...... It is exactly the same as the Qi princess Liu Jingyi in her memory.

The excitement in the old emperor's heart was indescribable.

Jingyi's child was also grown up by him, and he married it to his favorite prince early because he liked this child very much, thinking that with the power of the Liu family, he could bring support to Wen Qixiao, a child, and be able to sit in that position in the future, who would have thought ......

Alas...... The past can't be chased!

He subconsciously turned his head to look at Wen Qixiao, who happened to be standing next to Qiu Lin, only to see that his eyes were faint, and his expression was the same as before, without any abnormality.

It may be that Wen Qixiao's indifferent attitude made him calm down, and he glanced at Qiu Lin again, and found that he just had the same face, and it also made him understand that this was a handsome man, not the cute little girl.

He sighed in his heart and said in his heart: "It's hard for this child." ”

The emperor he saw in Qiu Lin was no longer as young as he was back then, and the traces of time had clearly left on his face, and he had not seen him for more than ten years, but he was twenty years old.

God is still very fair, and he will not be spared the arrangement of birth, old age, sickness and death because of who is in a position of power.

Qiu Lin motioned to Su Yun to present the congratulatory gift, saluted the emperor again and said: "Your Majesty, the grass people learned that the emperor liked to collect Du Yi's Danqing ink treasures, so they asked someone to look for them, but the grass people had limited ability and time was in a hurry, and only three authentic paintings were found. Today, the grass people will send these Danqing ink treasures as congratulatory gifts to the emperor, wishing the emperor happiness like the East China Sea and longevity! ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of whispering in the room.

"Du Yi's real handiwork? Du Yi's Danqing ink treasure is hard to find, and it is not something that can be obtained with money, and there are very few works that have been lost. ”

"Cloud Pavilion is really wealthy, and it is already difficult to find a pair of Du Yi's authentic works, and I found three of them at once."

"Oh my God! It's going to cost a lot of silver, right?! ”

“……”

Su Yun lowered his head slightly, presented calligraphy and paintings in his hand, and laughed in his heart: "The Du Yi in your mouth is now living in seclusion on the back mountain of the Cloud Pavilion, others are hard to find, but Qiu Lin can have as many calligraphy and paintings as you want." These three paintings were taken from Du Yi's study the day before Qiu Lin went to the back mountain and took them from Du Yi's study. ”

Thinking of Du Yi's works hanging in many industries in Cloud Pavilion, you may be able to see his works in the corridor of a certain inn, in the lobby of a certain restaurant, or even in the room of a certain place of wind and snow, I don't know what kind of expression these people will have when they know about it.

The old emperor was clearly pleased.

The old eunuch took the three calligraphy and paintings and put them away, looking very precious.

This Du Yi is a famous teacher that the old emperor likes very much, although he is still alive, but he has a very strange temperament, it is quite difficult to get his paintings, and he only has seven collections.
