"Hehe, Xu Shaoqing don't be surprised, Gu Cheng may be busy with official business today!" Lai Xianren said with a smile, although this seems to be saying it for Gu Wuyi, but Xu Ziling knows that since ancient times, there has been no secret competition between colleagues.

But now it seems that this Xianren is more suitable for the survival of officialdom, and that Gu Wu is in his prime, and it is obvious that the hardware in all aspects is not as good as Cheng.

Xu Ziling smiled, then got up and walked away, that Xianren knew how to be measured and polite, he stood on the right side of Xu Ziling, slightly ahead of Xu Ziling, but he didn't lead, stretched out his right hand, and introduced Xu Shaoqing one by one.

To say that this Honglu Temple left the biggest impression on Xu Ziling, it may be decent, it covers an area of very large, there are hundreds of acres, and the road side is neatly planted with trees, which makes people unnatural and relaxed.

The courtyard of the four entrances, one into the one is more decent than one in, Li Shimin is such a face-loving person, the place to receive foreign guests is naturally not bad, this is his Li Shimin's face, and the layout in the Honglu Temple is naturally much better than other institutions.

It's just that this huge Honglu Temple, all the way down, didn't see many people, this Xu Ziling is not surprising, think about it, this institution is simply a place to eat and wait for death, only when there is a messenger may be a little busy.

Along the way, Xianren introduced Xu Ziling from time to time, and when the road was almost recognized, Xu Ziling opened his mouth and asked: "By the way, I suddenly remembered something, should I go to pay a visit to Honglu Temple?" ”

In fact, Xu Ziling knew that today's Honglu Temple Qing would not be here, otherwise Xianren would not have taken him directly to recognize the way, and at that time he would have taken him to see his superiors, but at that time, Xu Ziling did not break it, and now after he was free, he asked Xianren.

"Oh, Daqing is sick, and he hasn't been on duty for a few days!" Lai Xianren said, with a touch of sadness on his face.

Damn, this guy can pretend better than Lao Tzu, I see that you are psychologically wishing that Honglu Siqing would die early, and he would be on top!

"Then have you heard that envoys from various countries are coming to Chang'an recently?" Xu Ziling suddenly remembered a question, damn it, this Honglu Temple will be sick, is it possible to let Lao Tzu carry the banner of diplomacy?

"Huh? Naturally, I know that the chamberlain also specially explained that we should receive the envoys of various countries with you! Lai Xianren said: "Look at the days, these envoys should come to Chang'an one after another in the near future!" ”

Oh my God, I really guessed right, Li Shimin, this old fox, aren't you chasing ducks to the shelves?

"Don't you tell me that there are only a few of us in the huge Honglu Temple?" Xu Ziling asked in horror, if only these few people don't talk about hospitality, damn, call the doorguard, a few people get together to fight the landlord.

"Naturally, there are a lot of palace maids in the Yeting Palace today, why don't we go to the Yeting Palace and pick a few?" Lai Xianren's squinting words, the underlying meaning of which is understood by any man.

What is the Ting Palace? It is the residence of the palace maid and the family of some criminal bureaucrats, if you go in, you will not have a good way out in your life, of course, there are no absolutes in the world, Shangguan Wan'er is a good example.

The palace can be roughly divided into three areas, the central part is the palace maid's residential area, which also includes the place where the women of the families of criminal bureaucrats are assigned to work in the palace. The north of the palace is Taicang, and the southwest is the seat of the province of internal servants. The Ministry of Internal Service is a eunuch institution, the so-called "internal service, proclamation order", in charge of all major and minor affairs in the palace.

So it can be seen how low the status of women is here!

Xu Ziling had a straight face, his face was not good, his attitude made Lai Xianren feel a surprise for no reason, no, how could this Xu Lang be different from the legend.

But before Xianren could think about it, Xu Ziling spoke: "Why do you say it now?" He immediately changed to a lewd smile and said, "Why don't you go quickly?" ”

"Huh? Yes, yes, the ministers lead the way, Shaoqing, please! Lai Xianren wiped the man on his head, bowed down and asked.

"Remember, we're going to work! Pick competent people and get ready for us to receive foreign guests! Xu Ziling said with a righteous face.

The virtuous man was in awe, and said very cooperatively: "Shaoqing has worked hard, and the ministers will definitely repay the saint!" ”

The two of them walked very seriously, and walked towards the Yeting Palace in a high manner, I didn't know that they thought that the two of them were about to go to the battlefield!

Yeting Palace belongs to a part of Taiji Palace, located in the west of Taiji Palace, in front of the vermilion gate of vigorous and simple simplicity, there are several guards with knives, and there are guards patrolling back and forth by the tall white wall around it, preventing palace maids from escaping.

When Xu Ziling and the others came to the gate of the Yeting Palace, a few soldiers wearing armor and holding long knives immediately blocked the way of the two and shouted, "Who is it? Show the fish charm, check the reason! ”

Xu Ziling and Lai Xianren handed the fish talisman that showed their identity to the guard, and said with a smile: "I was ordered to receive the maidservant!" After speaking, Lai Xianren took the order in his hand to the guards.

The guards carefully checked and confirmed that it was correct, and then said, "Go in!" ”

The two went in and walked for a while, and the road was relatively empty at first, so Xu Ziling couldn't help but ask if Xianren had gone to the wrong place, but who knew that Xianren had cried and said that he hadn't been here either.

Xu Ziling couldn't wait to kick this pig's head to death, he didn't come and swore so much, anyone thought you had come.

The two walked for a while, and they could see the palace maids walking in an orderly manner under the leadership of the chamberlain.

About the middle of the position, gradually the number of people increased, into the eyes, there are groups of pairs of palace maids carrying meals, some are washing clothes and laughing and talking, and a few eunuchs are teaching the palace maids a lesson.

Suddenly, Xu Ziling's body froze, staring at the place where he reprimanded the palace maid.

Lai Xianren saw Xu Ziling's abnormality, and hurriedly said: "That Turkic girl is really good, why don't we want it?" ”

"You go and get the appointment order to find the consul to transfer people, I'll take a look!" Xu Ziling couldn't help but say yes to the virtuous and benevolent way.

"Oh!" Lai Xianren is a very knowledgeable person, he never asks for a reason, he carries a robe and leaves with an order, and says before leaving: "Xu Shaoqing is waiting here, I will come when I go!" ”

"Yes!" Xu Ziling's eyes were still staring at the direction of Shicai.

I saw that the eunuch was pointing at the Turkic palace maid, and when she said that she was angry, she couldn't help but use her hand to pinch the Turkic woman a few times.

Xu Ziling's brows furrowed even deeper, and he only heard the eunuch say: "I can't do this little thing well, I can spill the food with a plate, what should I do with these on my feet?" Lick me clean! ”

Only then did Xu Ziling see that the eunuch's feet were sprinkled with green vegetable leaves, and a large piece of black wooden shoes were wet.
