As the sun sets, the sound of horses' hooves resounds in the Forbidden City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the eunuchs were in a hurry, they controlled their speed very slowly when they got on the road.
Although it is on a horse, its speed is not much worse than walking, and it is even slower.
Except for Wei Wuji, there were only four eunuchs left, and they didn't say a word from beginning to end, like wood.
Because the guards were not allowed to accompany him, Wei Wuji didn't even have anyone to talk to now, so he could only walk towards the palace wall in this lonely environment.
The small courtyard of the Forbidden City was on the east side of the Forbidden City, so Wei Wuji was taken to the east gate of the palace instead of through the main gate, as he thought.
After arriving at the side gate, several eunuchs dismounted one after another, and the leader led Wei Wuji towards the palace gate.
The guards at the side gate, after watching this eunuch come over, all saluted him attentively, but Wei Wuji in the back was ignored.
This made Wei Wuji smile bitterly, why didn't this face come in handy at the critical moment, and the benefits of looking like his father were not reflected at all.
But Wei Wuji still knows that he is low-key, and at this sensitive moment, he is summoned by Wei Hou, and the fewer people who know it, the better.
Therefore, Wei Wuji consciously lowered his head a little and followed the eunuch towards the palace gate.
Through the doorway, Wei Wuji and the others came to a laneway, a very deep and high lane.
This is the mezzanine between the two palace walls, so it is very deep.
Wei Wuji lowered his head and walked after the eunuch.
Wei Wuji had also taken the initiative to talk to this person before, but the other party had no intention of chatting with him at all.
So, until now, Wei Wuji didn't even know what the other party was called.
This "alleyway" was very long, giving people a very oppressive feeling, and Wei Wuji's aura began to rise and fall.
He gradually became nervous, it was difficult for him to control his emotions, and he felt a tightness in his chest within the walls of this tight palace.
But fortunately, this mezzanine was finally completed, and after passing through a palace gate, Wei Wuji came to the middle of the complex.
Although there are a lot of walls here, they are indeed much shorter than just now, and they don't have that heavy feeling.
Wei Wuji guessed that this should be the area of the Inner Palace, not the previous dynasty.
Following the eunuch to continue to move forward, the number of people he met on the road gradually increased, and the eunuch palace maids would appear from time to time.
After a while, Wei Wuji was taken to a side hall, and after a brief arrangement, the eunuch was about to leave.
"The messenger stayed, that is, my father summoned him, why did he leave me here!" Wei Wuji asked out loud, who knows how long it will take, seeing that it is going to be dark.
"When the king summons him, he will naturally send someone to invite the son, and the son will rest here for a while!" The eunuch replied, and then left without looking back.
Your sister's! Looking at the back of the eunuch who disappeared, Wei Wuji scolded in a low voice.
A eunuch, do you pull a hair? Lao Tzu is the identity of this son, do you dare to drag it? Wei Wuji felt very uncomfortable.
Afterwards, a palace maid came up with refreshments, saluted Wei Wuji and left.
Thirsty to the core, Wei Wuji picked up the teacup and poured it down, and there was a "grunt" sound.
As the minutes ticked by, it was difficult for Wei Wuji to keep his mind calm in this quiet environment.
As the sky gradually darkened, eunuchs entered the temple one after another and lit the oil lamps inside.
There was no communication, and the eunuchs were like puppets, very mechanically doing what they were doing.
Looking at their expressionless faces, Wei Wuji swallowed back the words he had originally wanted to ask.
It wasn't until this moment that Wei Wuji suddenly felt that it was not a good thing for his mother to leave the palace.
Staying in such a boring environment, even the most rich and luxurious life seems to be boring.
When the whole side hall was lit up, the eunuchs gradually retreated, probably to send light to the next place.
The lights are bright, but it also shows the darkness outside the hall, a kind of oncoming darkness.
Feeling uncomfortable sitting, Wei Wuji stood up and began to walk around the hall.
He didn't know the purpose of Wei Hou's summons, which made him feel uneasy, and he kept thinking about what he had done wrong these days.
But there was no answer at all, although Wei Wuji jumped out, he himself did not do those things that pressed the red line.
Barely countable is the incident in Wei Wushu's military camp a few days ago.
As the forbidden body of Wei Hou, Wei Wushu must not let others get involved, not his own son, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do it at all.
This made Wei Wuji feel terrified, and he seemed to be back in the military tent two months ago, when he and Wei Chengze were both kneeling in front of Wei Hou, bearing the thunderous rage.
"Childe, the king summoned you over!"
Just as Wei Wuji broke out in a cold sweat, a shrill voice sounded behind him.
"Oooh...... Mmmm, let's go ......" Wei Wuji was slightly alarmed and quickly wiped the sweat stains off his forehead.
As soon as he turned around, Wei Wuji saw a young eunuch of his age standing at the entrance of the hall.
"Childe, please come with the minions!" The little eunuch bowed and said.
Wei Wuji tidied up his appearance and made sure that there were no flaws before following the little eunuch.
At this time, the sky was indeed dark, and if it weren't for the lights along the road, I am afraid that I would not be able to see the road under my feet.
Turning left and right, I don't know how many corridors he walked through, Wei Wuji was finally led to a large hall.
Standing under the towering pedestal of the main hall, Wei Wuji felt his own insignificance, and even more felt the immensity of the monarch's majesty, which naturally emerged from his heart.
The little eunuch continued to lead the way, leading Wei Wuji up the stairs step by step.
When they came to the front of the main hall, another eunuch greeted them and completed the handover with the little eunuch.
Regarding the rules and regulations in the palace, Wei Wuji has a clear understanding of this time.
"Childe, please come with the minions!" The eunuch whispered, for fear of alarming something.
This also brought Wei Wuji into the rhythm, and his movements began to be cautious.
Unable to enter through the main entrance, Wei Wuji was still led to a side door, and then he heard the eunuch say to Wei Wuji, "Childe, the king is inside, and the slave can only be sent here." ”
"It's hard work!" Wei Wuji said very politely, he had seen it from the TV series, and it was very troublesome for these eunuchs to offend.
"Childe's words are serious, and the slave retires!" After the eunuch bowed, he slowly retreated.
At this time, except for those puppet-like servants not far away, Wei Wuji was the only one left.
The side door was open, and Wei Wuji could still see the flickering firelight in the hall.
He tried to calm his good mood, suppressed his worries, and then strode in.
The hall was brightly lit, and there was no dim feeling, and there were wisps of fragrance coming from the incense burner, which made Wei Wuji feel free to diagnose.
But Wei Wuji soon felt that something was wrong, compared to the lifelessness of the eunuchs outside the palace, the attendants in the hall seemed very nervous.
You can see that their bodies are tense, and even their breathing seems weak.
Wei Wuji's heart became heavier and heavier, and his steps couldn't help but become lighter, and he slowly walked towards the inner hall.
The further inside, the more pronounced the tension became.
It wasn't until Wei Wuji walked outside the inner hall that he saw through the curtain that Wei Hou was sitting on the throne in the hall.
