Chapter 66
So fast?
Liu Ji instinctively felt that something was wrong, because of Feng Changqing's recital, the Son of Heaven might be interested in him, which was not surprising, but it had not been half an hour since he entered the city, and the people in the palace had already arrived at Gaofu in advance, which could only mean that the edict was issued before, and then they had been staring at the itinerary of their team, so that they could do it well.
During the whole process, he didn't even notice it at all, it can be seen that there are many eyes and ears in this Chang'an City, and he can't distinguish them at all.
The two didn't have time to make a noise, so they had to hurriedly change into regular clothes, and they were pulled out by Gao Xianzhi, from Xuanyangfang to Xingqing Palace, and bypassed Pingkang, Chongren, Shengye and other squares, as well as Dongshi.
For this famous palace built in the city, rebuilt by Xingqingfang, Liu Ji saw some differences, it can be said that it is the most people-friendly palace in history, the people pass under the palace wall, you can see the towering palace tower at a glance, it is rumored that the sound in the building can be heard clearly, and there are even people laughing.
So he got his first impression of Li Longji, the son of heaven, who loves to be lively and loves to share with others, and it is natural for such a person to be happy.
The palace wall of Xingqing Palace is remodeled on the basis of the original square wall, widened, thickened and heightened for the sergeants to guard on it, and there are corner towers built at the four corners, and there are horse faces everywhere, needless to say, the defense is strict.
"Ouch, General Gao, our family has been waiting so hard, if we don't come again, we will go to your house to find it."
"If you have been waiting for a long time, Gao Gong can you?"
"Serving everyone in the building, I'm waiting for you, this is Feng Zhongcheng, fortunately, this is Liu Guoyi?"
"Don't dare, it's right below."
Outside the palace gate, a man dressed in a lieutenant's costume saw them, hurriedly greeted them, briefly confirmed their identities, and led them inside.
"Zhongcheng and Guo Yi are both facing the saint for the first time, the rules can only be said simply, for a while, wait until the roll call, you can enter, don't look up, walk slower, steady, the Son of Heaven's favorite is a side general like you, you have always been generous, even if it is a little rude, it is okay, you can speak louder, don't let the Son of Heaven ask again, there are still some taboos, remember to ......"
"The lower officials and others have written it down, thank you for reminding me."
In a short period of time, this lieutenant has been teaching them the precautions for facing saints, from his words, Liu Ji heard some clues, this son of heaven, in fact, does not pay much attention to the rules, some do what he wants, and even some stubbornness, which makes him think of the famous An Fat Man in history, a bloated Hu man, with no background and low background, who will get so much trust, this first impression may be the key.
His actions have managed to get his attention, and the next thing is to see how he performs.
Soon several people came to a building, the plaque in front of the door is inscribed with the words "diligent government book", about seven times high, covering an extremely wide area, almost half of the palace gate, and the other building opposite it, the shape is similar, the size is also about the same, like the twin towers, standing side by side.
"Oops, I almost forgot, untie the sword, untie the sword before you can enter."
The three of them untied the sword at their waists at the same time, this sword Liu Ji had never used, and he didn't know how to use it, but it seemed to be more ornamental, because he saw in this Chang'an City, most of the long shirts would wear swords, almost everywhere.
"The two of you go in with our house, General Gao, please stay, but please don't go far, so as not to ask everyone about something."
Gao Xianzhi took his saber and was stunned on the spot, only to watch the two of them enter, and couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
Liu Ji followed behind the Zhongguan with some curiosity, looking at the political center of the Kaiyuan and Tianbao periods, saying that it was a building, but it was actually a large hall, and the lower floor was quite large, enough to accommodate hundreds of officials, presumably used during the court meeting.
The lieutenant took them straight upstairs, the wooden staircase, stepping on it, did not make a single noise, the wood was as thick and strong as steel, so it came to the third floor, and it was a large hall, which was naturally much smaller than the first floor, the door of the hall was open, and there seemed to be a figure walking around, and a lieutenant waiting at the door asked with his head.
"Are you here?"
"Coming, coming, everyone asked?" The lieutenant who brought them in wiped the sweat from his forehead, not knowing whether he was tired or frightened.
"It's not yet, the high bus waits, once it comes, it will be introduced immediately, which one is Feng Zhongcheng?"
"The next official is."
Feng Changqing was obviously a little nervous, and the lieutenant glanced at him and nodded: "Later, let's go and report it." ”
With that, the man bowed his head and went in, and soon he came out of it, stood at the door, and called his name loudly.
"Xuan, Yushi Zhongcheng, Anxi Deputy Metropolitan Protector, Four Towns Jiedu envoy Feng Changqing into the pilgrimage!"
Feng Changqing took a long breath, and as soon as his voice fell, he stepped out of the slightly longer leg and walked into the hall.
His appearance made the hall quiet all of a sudden, Li Longji sat on the Hu bed, looking at his figure with blazing eyes, and Gao Lishi beside him was also staring, it was really the image of this handsome, too amazing.
At this time, Feng Changqing, dressed in a martial arts suit, his face has been retouched, and he looks much more refreshed, in addition to walking, he is also a little uncomfortable, and he looks like an ordinary rich old man.
"The Four Towns Festival envoy Feng Changqing see Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven is safe." Feng Changqing followed the previous instructions of the lieutenant official, stood at a distance of about three steps, and bowed down.
When he finished saluting, Gao Lishi was about to shout, but was stopped by Li Longji's eyes.
Li Longji stood up from the Hu bed and walked in front of Feng Changqing.
"Feng Qing, raise your head."
Feng Changqing raised his head as he said, only to see the Son of Heaven staring at him solemnly.
"It is rumored that your appearance is strange, but when I look at it today, it is clear that you are the image of the Lord."
As he spoke, he actually stretched out his hand and personally helped him up, Feng Changqing never expected it, and he was so excited that he choked up for a while.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... It's really unbearable......"
"Unsightly? Do you want to say that when I choose materials, I look at the appearance first, and then talk about the others, and I am almost born, and I don't even have the opportunity to serve the country? ”
"You, underestimate me, and underestimate yourself."
Li Longji stopped his defense and said with a smile: "Today, it's not a court discussion, but I just want to see what heroes the generals who annihilated our great enemy. ”
"You came late, but you didn't disappoint me."
Only then did Feng Changqing see clearly that he was not the only one in the hall, Ge Shuhan and Cheng Qianli, one left and one right, were staring at him.
