Chapter 180: Price

In front of it is Kunning Palace!

Zhu Qiming strode into the north-south palace road, and was secretly glad that he hadn't met Yingying Yanyan along the way, but he was stunned by the scene that suddenly appeared in front of him, and immediately stopped his feet.

A slightly plump woman stood in the middle of the road, just looking at the chamberlain Mao Gui and several kind-faced palace maids behind her, Zhu Qiming immediately realized that she was the daughter of the Zhou family!

At this moment, Zhou stared at a slender woman in front of him, bowing her head, and her eyes were a little aggressive. Juan'er stood beside the slender woman, needless to say, the slender woman was the niece of the Jingci Immortal Master, the Qin family.

He turned his face sideways, his heart tangled. This is the only passage to the Qianqing Palace, if you want not to meet with the Zhou family, you can only detour out of the Donghua Gate, enter the palace through the noon gate, and take the Qianqing Gate after turning a big circle. It's too much of a hassle!

On second thought, why should I be so cautious? Didn't the emperor let go of the words "whoever you bump into is whoever you meet"? Well, it's just a chance encounter, not a voyeur! One of the popular candidates to meet the future queen, the peerless face is there, don't look at it in vain!

raised his eyes to look at Zhou, and saw that her eyes were the same as Zhou Xiaodie, big and bright, embedded in a goose egg face, very recognizable; The face is thinly powdered, and it can't hide a touch of natural blush; The bridge of the nose is straight and softly contoured, and from a modern point of view, it is the standard Greek nose; The two corners of the mouth are like two curved arcs.

Regardless of the importance of the Queen Mother, with this face alone, the Zhou family will definitely become one of the fifty people who will win the election in the end!

However, the corners of Zhou's eyes and eyebrows naturally have a sultry style, and at this moment, because of his arrogance at Qin, there is a hint of daunting scheming. Zhu Qiming searched all the images of famous harem women in ancient times recorded in the history books in his memory, and after comparing them one by one, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the Zhou family would most likely become the emperor's favorite concubine, as for the queen, it seems to be hanging!

"You ran in the same class as me, but you have been eliminated, why are you still lingering in the palace and not returning?" There was a faint ruthlessness in Zhou's eyes, but her eyes always liked to look at Kunning Palace from afar, and intentionally or unintentionally revealed her hidden thoughts, indicating that she had lofty ambitions and great plans.

Hey, there's a story! Could it be that there was a conflict between the two? Zhu Qiming's gaze immediately turned to the Qin family.

The Qin family still hung his head, "I was ordered to enter the palace to visit my aunt······ Jingci Immortal Master was about to leave the palace, and then set off home, but he met here······ Sister. ”

A trace of disdain flashed in Zhou's eyes, "I can't afford your sister!" You have to be careful, the Queen Mother is most tired of seeing some people hanging around in the palace! ”

Empress dowager? Is it really the Queen Mother who blocked the Qin family's draft channel?

During the muttering, Zhu Qiming heard Qin's response: "The carriage and horse are already waiting outside the Chengtian Gate, and I will set off on the road after leaving the palace, and I will not stay in Beijing for a moment." ”

At this time, dozens of show girls came here one after another to see the excitement, and their eyes only glanced at the faces of the Zhou family and the Qin family, and then fell on Zhu Qiming one after another.

Zhou's face was smug, and he glanced at Qin Clan lightly, "It's so good, the Forbidden City is not a place where everyone can stay." ”

"Look, that little father-in-law is here again!" A show girl laughed.

In the chuckle of several people, the Zhou family finally gave up the Qin family in front of him and threw a surprised glance at Zhu Qiming.

Mao Gui turned his head to see Zhu Qiming, squinted and smiled, and then glared at those show girls, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something to reprimand everyone, probably because he felt that those show girls were not characters that he could easily offend, so he gave up the show girls, trotted to Zhu Qiming's side with a cigarette, and said indignantly: "Your Highness, let them take a closer look, Your Highness is not a little father-in-law!" ”

That's a really good idea! Zhu Qiming glanced at Mao Gui and walked forward.

Juan'er and the palace maid behind the Zhou family hurriedly bowed and saluted, "See His Royal Highness King Yue." ”

King Yue? Zhou hesitated slightly, just Yingying Yifu, but he was not very willing to lower his figure too much.

For the future pillow person of the Son of Heaven, Zhu Qiming didn't dare to put on a stand, he bowed to the Zhou family in front of him, which made the Zhou family very useful.

He wanted to leave, but he couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, turned his eyes to Qin, and saw that she was giving a salute with great grace, and quickly moved away as soon as his gaze touched his face.

Zhu Qiming looked at it and saw it really well.

There is nothing special about dismantling her facial features and observing them one by one, but together, they are extremely special!

The delicate layout of the facial features, the pitiful charm between the eyebrows and eyes, all reveal a deep valley orchid flavor, elegant and refined. Compared with her, the Zhou family looks extremely gorgeous, but no matter how gorgeous it is, under the background of the Qin family, the Zhou family is also a vulgar flower after all!

It's a pity that her eyes reveal the innocence in her heart. Alas, the court is sinister, and this is indeed not a place where good people can easily stand on it!

Suddenly, seeing Juan'er bow down again, Qi Ai's eyes fell on his face, and he only called softly: "His Royal Highness King Yue." ”

Zhu Qiming was in a trance, and he couldn't tell whether the flashing gaze in front of him was Juan'er's or Jingci Immortal Master's, for some reason, he actually moved to Qin's side, "This sister might as well wait here, Jingci Immortal Master may have forgotten to tell her sister a few words, and someone may find her here." ”

Seeing Juan'er smile brightly, she grabbed Qin's arm, as if she was afraid that she would suddenly fly away if she was not careful.

Zhu Qiming avoided a pair of curious eyes and walked away quickly.

Without waiting for the word to be transmitted, Zhu Qiming walked straight into the Qianqing Palace, only to see the emperor sitting on the royal platform, with hatred at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

Wang Zhen on the side was the first to see Zhu Qiming, although his face was a little gloomy, but a smile still appeared in his eyes.

The emperor slowly turned his head to look at this side, and immediately stood up, his face turned from cloudy to clear sky in an instant, strode down the imperial platform, and stretched out his hand to support Zhu Qiming, who was about to make a big salute.

"Third brother!"

"Your Majesty, please lead the troops to exterminate the Tartar thieves who have entered the Kou!"

In the laughter that several close servants couldn't hide, a laugh overshadowed everyone's heads, sweeping away the remaining haze in the Qianqing Palace.

"Good! I'm right. How many centaurs do you want? ”

"Five thousand."

"The three major battalions in Beijing are selected by you, and the people and horses should be the best!"

"From the three major battalions ······ in Beijing" Zhu Qiming caught a glimpse of Xining entering, and immediately stopped.

"Your Majesty, this is the third time that the little slave has passed the meal, and I ask Your Majesty to move the dining room." Xining bowed.

The emperor was surprised for a while when he saw Zhu Qiming's face was different, and then returned to the royal platform and sat down, waving his hand at Xining, "I know, you can step down." Then he commanded his chamberlain, "Stand down, all of you." ”

There were only three people left in the palace, including the emperor, Zhu Qiming, and Wang Zhen, and Zhu Qiming reopened his mouth: "The military affairs are important in secrecy, and the selection of soldiers from the three major battalions in Beijing is too big, and I am afraid that it will be detected by the eyeliner secretly laid by the Warat people, so it is better to select and send strong soldiers from the guards around the capital to go directly to the north to assemble and stand by." ”

"Okay, where to select troops and where to assemble are all up to you, I give you the right to act cheaply, and the military department and Sima Jian will fully cooperate with you. Also, these 5,000 men and horses no longer need to set up the post of eunuch of the prison army, and the whole army will obey your orders! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust! If the selection of troops goes well, the minister will leave for the north within ten days. ”

"From today onwards, you will go back to Yuefu to live." The emperor laughed heartily again, and after a while, his eyes suddenly froze, and he looked straight at Zhu Qiming, as if he remembered something, "If you have something to ask for a private matter, I am not allowed." ”

Is that to negotiate the price? I think that since the emperor took the lead in Xianxi Palace in the morning, why don't you follow suit! Everyone may wish to play a fun game.

Guess, guess, guess!

Seeing that Zhu Qiming was silent, the emperor turned his head to look at Wang Zhen.

Wang Zhenchong and Zhu Qiming smiled, "I'm afraid that those recitals accusing Lu Xi are all nonsense, and His Royal Highness King Yue doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Seeing that the emperor frowned blankly, Zhu Qiming immediately realized that most of the things in the book had nothing to do with the Son of Heaven, but Wang Zhen was abusing power!

He was there without saying a word.

The emperor was stunned and seemed to be in trouble. It seems a bit early to talk about rewards before the troops are dispatched; Seal the official, well, no, even if a prince has great merit, he can only be a prince.

Suddenly, the emperor's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have an understanding, "Oh, I heard that Lu Xi's daughter was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager in the other courtyard, there may be some misunderstanding in this." After all, it is the person chosen by the Empress Dowager herself, so it's okay, when you return triumphantly, I will go to the Queen Mother to talk about it, and allow her to return to the other courtyard to be your companion. You are almost an adult, and I feel that the candidates for Princess Yue do not have to follow the old system, and no matter who you ask for as a concubine, I will not be allowed to do so! ”

Zhu Qiming's heart was beating wildly, and he wanted to open his mouth to thank him, but he suddenly slammed it, as if his throat was blocked by something.

"Jingci Immortal Master said that he would scold the minister again, and the minister was panicked. However, the minister was really puzzled, and he didn't know what had happened to the Jingci Immortal Master recently, and he wanted to find the minister to vent his anger. Please also ask Your Majesty to make decisions for your ministers! ”

The emperor waved his hand, "The big war is coming, you don't have to care about such trivial matters······" The emperor's gaze froze again, he looked at Zhu Qiming suspiciously, and said to Wang Zhen: "Where is the niece of Jingci Immortal Master?" ”

"I entered the palace in the morning to visit the Jingci Immortal Master, and I don't know if I am out of the palace at this moment." Wang Zhendao.

"Please go to the hospital and take a look, and if she is still in the palace, bring her. After all, she is the niece of Jingci Immortal Master, even if she is not good-looking and is eliminated early, I should give her a heavy reward to show my kindness. ”

After Wang Zhen went out, the emperor walked down the royal stage, and he didn't shy away from anything, and talked with Zhu Qiming about the draft anecdotes he had just heard, what female King Kong, yin and yang face, fox smell, etc., in short, it is not a good thing, in the end, the emperor sincerely invited his cousin to take the time to go to the draft site to take a closer look after the reopening of the talent show, don't let those old servants derelict their duties, so that the dominatrix or something weird people mixed into the harem.

It seems that the emperor is young after all, and he is married for the first time, so he has no experience.

"The people's daughter Qin respectfully invites the emperor to be holy and blessed!"

The Qin family didn't know when he entered the Qianqing Palace with Wang Zhen and knelt on the ground to make a big salute.

The emperor glanced at the Qin clan lightly, "Flat." Then he turned around and looked at Zhu Qiming with a smile, as if he wanted to continue the conversation on the topic of Fang Cai.

Suddenly, the emperor's eyes lit up, he turned his head sharply, looked at the Qin family in a daze, and after a while, a smile appeared on his face that surprised Zhu Qiming.
