When Li Yuanqing arrived in Beijing, it happened to be the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In Beijing, the flavor of the New Year is already very strong, in front of every house, new couplets have been pasted, large households, have hung red lanterns, children naughty running around the street, firecrackers, building snowmen, adults are big bags to rush home, for the coming New Year to prepare more New Year's goods.

In the second year of the Apocalypse, although the Ming Dynasty has entered the stormy year, the Liao affairs are tight, the southwest is not quiet, the weather is ghostly, and the harvest is not very good, but the overall situation is quite good, compared with the first year of the Apocalypse, various affairs have risen slightly.

With Father-in-law An here, Li Yuanqing has saved a lot of effort in many things, and he doesn't have to rush anymore, just step on it.

At the beginning of the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, the whole northern land was covered with goose feather-like snow, from Liaohai all the way to Dagukou, and then to Jingshi, there was a white snow everywhere, which also added a lot of trouble to the rush of the group.

Li Yuanqing originally wanted to visit Li Banghua in Tianjin, for the Dongjiang River, Denglai is a fortress, but for Changsheng Island, Li Yuanqing is more inclined to Dagukou, mainly because Beijing has a canal, buying and selling materials, the speed is faster, and the transportation cost is lower.

But the heavy snow hindered the trip, and Li Yuanqing couldn't spare time, so he had to give up for the time being, ready to find a better opportunity to communicate with Li Banghua.

The skeleton of the giant whale had arrived in Beijing a few days ago, and the little emperor of the Apocalypse was very fond of it, and he had even decided to use carpentry to make a model of this whale bone and treasure it in the palace.

Li Yuanqing thought that this thing could be placed outside the palace, so that the common people could also see it and spread his prestige, but it was like this, and Li Yuanqing had to give up.

As the old saying goes, 'There are no impermeable walls in the world.'" ’

In other words, this thing maintains a sense of distance from the world, but it makes people feel more mysterious.

After all, according to the eloquence of these little eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, the things depicted must be more exciting......

But there are pros and cons to everything.

Li Yuanqing's reputation has indeed opened up in the Northland, Jingshi, and even the entire Ming Dynasty, but in the literati group, the word 'rigosho' has not run away.

In this regard, Li Yuanqing did not suffer too many gains and losses.

For the literati, he is just a vulgar and ugly lowly martial artist, even if he licks his face to please them, he may not necessarily gain anything, but it is better to let the common people be familiar with his name, just like Chang Yuchun and Mu Ying back then, and the gains and losses are at ease.

When the group arrived outside the palace gate, it was already evening, and the goose feathers and snow in the sky were scattered, and the whole world was covered with snow and fog everywhere, and the visibility was not very high.

The order given by the little emperor of the Apocalypse to Gonggong An was, 'Take Li Yuanqing to the capital and go directly to see him.' ’

This time, even if Li Yuanqing wanted to go to the Fog and Rain Pavilion to rest for a while, it would be impossible, and he would have to face the saint first.

"Brother, you wait here for a while, I'll report it immediately, at most an hour, there will be news."

Gonggong An hugged his fist at Li Yuanqing and walked quickly into the high red-walled compound.

However, although Grandpa An left first, people like him don't have to worry too much about doing things.

Although there is no shelter from the wind and snow outside the palace gate, as soon as Gonggong An enters the city, he has attracted a carriage, plus a few large braziers, and there is enough charcoal, Li Yuanqing, Huang Guoshan, Kong Youde, more than 20 personal soldiers gathered around the brazier next to the carriage, it is not too cold, and you can also roast whale meat by the way, but you have a lot of enjoyment.

After eating and drinking, Kong Youde looked at the red wall and green tiles not far away, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional: "General, this, is this the palace?" Roasting whale meat outside the palace gates was a ......"

He thought about it, but he didn't know how to describe it, and he smiled.

The pro-soldiers are also extremely proud, and with their own generals, no matter where they go, they will not suffer.

Li Yuanqing didn't have the heart to pay attention to these pro-soldiers, looking at this behemoth under the wind and snow, he slowly fell into deep thought.

In less than half an hour, it was already dark, the closed palace door opened again, and several little eunuchs hurried out.

"Which one is General Lee?"

Li Yuanqing hurriedly greeted him and said respectfully: "A few fathers-in-law, the lowly position is Li Yuanqing." ”

The leading little eunuch hurriedly saluted Li Yuanqing, "General Li, the emperor is waiting for you." Let's hurry up. ”

Li Yuanqing didn't dare to slack off, waved his hand to Huang Guoshan, motioned for them to wait here, followed a few little eunuchs, and walked quickly to the palace gate.

After handing over his saber weapon to the guards at the palace gate, Li Yuanqing once again walked into this huge palace complex.

The little eunuchs walked quickly, and Li Yuanqing also sped up his pace, and after about half an hour, the group came to a tall palace.

The little eunuch said respectfully: "General Li, you wait here, and the miscellaneous family will go in and report." ”

Li Yuanqing nodded with a smile, and quietly, a white and silver ticket had been stuffed into the little eunuch's hand.

The little eunuch's eyes couldn't help but light up, smiled, and walked in quickly.

Li Yuanqing looked at the palace carefully, but the courtyard gate was almost close to three stories high, magnificent, majestic and solemn, and people couldn't help but have a sense of inferiority.

It's a pity that at this time, Li Yuanqing and a few little eunuchs accompanying him were sheltering from the wind and snow under the courtyard gate, and there were guards around them, and Li Yuanqing couldn't go out to find out what the name of this palace was.

But after thinking about it, Li Yuanqing was also relieved.

The Forbidden City in later generations was rebuilt by the Manchu Dynasty on the basis of the Ming Imperial Palace, and it is probably unrealistic to find the shadow of later generations.

After waiting for a while, there was no movement inside, which was a bit unreasonable, and Li Yuanqing was a little distracted for a while.

At this time, an eleven or twelve-year-old young man in a golden brocade robe and a little thin walked out of the darkness on the side with a smile, "But General Li? The emperor has been waiting for you for a long time, so come in with me. ”

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but be stunned, but the eunuchs and guards around him lowered their heads one after another and saluted the young man.

"Thank you, thank you, little boy." Li Yuanqing had already understood something at this time, but after all, this place was extraordinary, and he didn't dare to speculate and say too much.

The young man couldn't help but smile, "General Li, come with me." ”

As he spoke, he took the lead and walked forward.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly followed behind him.

Feeling Li Yuanqing's steady steps behind him, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but smile slightly.

In fact, since he learned that Li Yuanqing could come to Beijing today, he had been waiting in the palace early in the morning.

Just now, the little emperor of the Apocalypse was going to directly summon Li Yuanqing to meet him, but he took this errand by himself and secretly spied on Li Yuanqing for a long time in the darkness by the courtyard gate.

This is also a method taught to him by his great companion Wang Chengen.

To see how a person is, it is best to look at his patience first.

He secretly glanced at Li Yuanqing for a long time, and found that Li Yuanqing always stood straight, calmly looking at the surrounding scenery, and did not have the slightest eagerness and impatience, and saw that Li Yuanqing was tall and powerful, isn't this exactly what he imagined to be a loyal and patriotic general?

Zhu Youzhen laughed as he walked, and his steps began to be a little frivolous.

Although Li Yuanqing has been able to judge that eight ~ nine is not far from ten, he will lose if he says too much, so he can only endure it for the time being.

However, looking at this young master's appearance, tonight, things shouldn't be bad.

was about to come to the gate of the palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids standing around lowered their heads and saluted this young master.

Maybe he was too excited, and the threshold at the door was a little high, but suddenly, Zhu Youzhen's feet slipped, and he was about to lie on the ground.

The surrounding eunuchs and palace maids were so frightened that their faces were almost green.

If you want to fall like this, this young master is afraid that he will break his front teeth.

"Your Highness, be careful." A eunuch shouted.

According to the degree of love of the little emperor of the apocalypse for his brother, if something really happens, how can they still be alive?

Zhu Youzhen was also a little annoyed, he was a big fool now, he didn't expect this threshold to cause him any harm.

But just when his face was about to make intimate contact with the threshold, behind him, a big hand firmly hugged his chest and helped him up steadily.

"It's snowy and slippery, Childe be careful."

Li Yuanqing carefully helped Zhu Youzhen aside, helped him pat the broken snow on his shoulder, and respectfully stepped aside.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

This big hand is too powerful, he has grown so big, he has never felt like this, this is a feeling he can't describe at all, but this big hand makes him extremely reassured, as if there are thousands of troops, he can not care.

"Thank you, thank you, General Lee."

Zhu Youzhen suddenly smiled, "General Li, please." ”

He actually opened the door for Li Yuanqing in person.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but be speechless, this, it's not going in, it's not going in, it's not going in, it's fucking ......

In the hall, a warm breeze came to the face, with a little incense smell that Li Yuanqing didn't know how to describe, which made people feel refreshed.

This door is very large, and he pushes it a little hard.

The eunuchs and palace maids next to him wanted to come forward to help, but they were stopped by him with a look.

Li Yuanqing's mind spun rapidly, and after a moment, he gritted his teeth and arched his hand: "Thank you for your love." ”

With that, he strode into the hall, and after crossing the threshold, he helped him hold the door again.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but smile, "General Xie Li." The emperor is waiting for you inside. Let's get in quickly. ”

At this time, the little emperor of the Apocalypse heard the movement outside, and walked out quickly, and when he saw Li Yuanqing, he couldn't help but be happy, "General Li, are you here?" ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly knelt on the ground and respectfully saluted the little emperor of the Apocalypse, "The last general, Li Yuanqing, the capital of Dongjiang Changsheng Island, knock to see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”

The little emperor of the Apocalypse smiled and helped Li Yuanqing up with his own hands, laughing, "General Li, don't be polite. It's snowing outside, hurry, come in and get warmer. Brother, come in quickly. ”

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly smiled and followed behind the little emperor of the Apocalypse.

Li Yuanqing followed behind the two of them and carefully entered the main hall.

Walking into the main hall, Li Yuanqing carefully probed the surroundings.

This palace is very large, but it is very different from the last time when the palace was very official, this palace is full of the smell of home, several braziers around the 'crackling' sound, and more than a dozen eunuchs and palace maids are standing around.

This may be the dormitory of the little emperor of the apocalypse. Li Yuanqing secretly speculated.

Walking through the front hall, Li Yuanqing followed the two to a small palace that was not too big.

The palace is very warm, and there is an incense stick that is not named, exuding a faint fragrance, which makes people feel very comfortable.

The little emperor of the Apocalypse sat on the throne with a smile, and Zhu Youzhen sat on the side of him, and the two of them looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile.

Li Yuanqing was a little speechless, and stood aside respectfully, not knowing what these two children were going to do.

After a moment, the little emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly smiled, "Brother Chen, how do you feel?" ”

Zhu Youzhen also smiled, "General Li is really a hero." ”

The Little Emperor of the Apocalypse laughed, "General Li, I'm not joking with you. This is my brother, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters. ”

Li Yuanqing also understood that this pass may be that the two children wanted to take the school examination themselves, and they were busy saluting Zhu Youzhen respectfully, "Humble Li Yuanqing, I have seen His Royal Highness King Xin." ”
