Chapter 188, entering the palace

As soon as the three of them went ashore, they found that the Hongqiao ferry port was three steps and one sentry, seven steps and one post, and it was really heavily guarded.

Zhao Ying grabbed one of the Ouchi guards patrolling the ferry, told him her true identity, and she also tore off the scarf on her head, revealing her flowing hair.

The Ouchi guard had a long mouth, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, he was surprised and uneasy.

The surprise was that he had long known about the disappearance of the eldest princess Zhao Ying, and even more knew that Boss Zhao had secretly offered a reward of 500 yuan to find Zhao Ying, but he didn't expect that he would actually meet Zhao Ying now. The uneasy thing is that no one knows the current situation of Boss Zhao, who has given a heavy reward, so it is still unknown whether the bounty of 500 yuan can be cashed.

"Is it really a sister?"

Xiao Qiang's eyes widened, his mouth grew up, he didn't say a word for a long time, and after a long time, he remembered something, and said to Zhao Ying in the tone of learning piano exercises: "Sister Ying, where are we going?" ”

Qin Cao on the side was not satisfied with Xiaoqiang's address to Zhao Ying, she said angrily: "Sister Ying, that's your name, if you want to call the eldest princess, where to go, where can you go, of course you have entered the palace!" ”

"Enter the palace!"

Xiao Qiang's whole person was petrified, he held his breath, there seemed to be a yearning luster in his eyes faintly flickering, he looked at Qin Cao, and then looked at Zhao Ying, until Zhao Ying nodded to him, he jumped up and shouted loudly: "Enter the palace, enter the palace!" ”

Qin Cao glanced at Xiaoqiang: "Isn't it just to enter the palace, is it worth shouting like this." ”

At this time, the Ouchi guard had already informed a squad leader of the Imperial Forest Army of the news of Zhao Ying's arrival, and the squad leader hurriedly asked someone to prepare a sedan chair to pick up Zhao Ying.

Seeing that Zhao Ying and Qin Cao got into the sedan chair one after another, Xiao Qiang followed behind Qin Cao, and also wanted to squeeze into the small sedan chair, but was stopped by several internal guards.

The guard pointed to a group of green horses on the side of the sedan chair and motioned for Xiaoqiang to ride a horse.

"Horseback riding, small ones don't know how to ride!"

Xiaoqiang's face is like a vegetable. Trembling came to the horse, and when one of the guards lifted him onto the horse, he lay on the horse with his hands in the saddle, and trembling with his eyes in his eyes.

One of the guards saw that he really didn't want to ride a horse, so he deigned to be a small strong groom, pulled the reins, and led the horse to follow behind the palanquin.

All this that happened outside, Zhao Ying had just seen clearly through the curtain on the side of the sedan chair, she shook her head and thought, "This person must not dare to brother." Even if he doesn't know horsemanship, he will have the courage to drive the horse wildly, and he will not think like Xiaoqiang, lying on the horse's back and letting people take it away. ”

Thinking about it, Zhao Ying was stunned, she was complaining to herself, how could she link Xiaoqiang and Li Dang together, Xiaoqiang was just a subordinate, how could it be Li Kang. I suspected that he was Li Kang before, and I always felt that he had the shadow of Li Kang on him, and that was because he missed Li Kang too much.

Several people quickly entered through the Donghua Gate and crossed the Royal Street. Pass through the palace gate and come to the palace.

The anger in the palace was even more depressing than outside, and there were only patrolling Praetorian soldiers everywhere, all of them armed. As if facing a great enemy.

"What the hell is wrong with the royal brother?"

Zhao Ying couldn't help it, and asked a forbidden soldier beside her again.

The man shook his head silently, he really didn't know Boss Zhao's current situation. Since Boss Zhao suddenly fell ill more than twenty days ago, except for a limited number of people in this palace, no one has seen him anymore.

They guessed that Boss Zhao's current situation would not be too good, because it was rumored in the palace that Chen Meiren, one of Boss Zhao's most favored concubines, had already begun a hunger strike. The concubines went on a hunger strike, of course, to bury the emperor, so everyone always guessed the current situation of Boss Zhao in the worst direction.

The forbidden soldier hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help but say to Zhao Ying: "Chen Meiren doesn't know why, I heard that she has gone on a hunger strike. ”

Xiao Qiang behind Zhao Ying heard that Chen Meiren was on a hunger strike, and something suddenly lit up in his eyes, but soon his eyes returned to normal.

"Why did Chen Meiren go on a hunger strike?" Zhao Ying hurriedly asked.

After she finished asking, she found that this question seemed to be very simple, and she didn't need the head to answer it at all, so she hurriedly said: "Where is the imperial brother, this palace wants to see the imperial brother." ”

The forbidden army is also sophisticated, he arched his hand to Zhao Ying and said: "Eldest princess, the little one doesn't know much, and the little one who knows has already told the eldest princess where the official family is, and the little one really doesn't know, the little one is just ordered to take the eldest princess to Qingren Palace and go to see the queen mother." ”

Zhao Ying saw the innocent look of the forbidden army, knowing that after all, his status was humble, and it was impossible for him to know the secrets of the palace. Zhao Ying looked up at Qingren Palace, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she found that Liang Weijian, the most favored eunuch of Boss Zhao, was not far ahead.

"Grandpa Liang!"

Zhao Ying waved her arms and shouted.

"Who is this son?"

Liang Weijian watched Zhao Ying grow up since he was a child, and at this time he didn't know if it was presbyopia, or because of other reasons, he didn't recognize Zhao Ying.

"This palace is the eldest princess of the Yue Kingdom!" Zhao Ying hurriedly said.

"Oh, oh, it's the eldest princess, it's the eldest princess, the old slave thought he would never see you again!" After Liang Weijian finished speaking, he burst into tears.

Zhao Ying looked at Liang Weijian, who was like a tearful person, she thought that maybe it was because Liang Weijian was too close to her previous relationship, and he regarded himself as a goddaughter, so when she saw her return to the palace, she was so excited.

"Father-in-law Liang, take this palace to see the imperial brother!" Zhao Ying said anxiously.

"Official!" Liang Weijian shook his head, and he said, "The old slave should take the eldest princess to see the queen mother first, she wants to kill the eldest princess." ”

Liang Weijian said, and suddenly found Xiaoqiang and Qin Cao behind Zhao Ying, and he asked, "Who are these two people, how can they be allowed to enter the palace?" ”

Zhao Ying saw Liang Weijian asking, hurriedly stood beside Xiaoqiang and Qin Cao, pointed to the two of them, and said: "Father-in-law Liang, this is a pair of brothers and sisters who met outside the palace in this palace. When Hongu came back this time, he wanted to take care of them more than once along the way, so he kept them with him. ”

Liang Weijian looked at Zhao Ying, he nodded, and then shook his head and said: "What kind of identity is the eldest princess, no matter what difficulties she encounters, she can always easily turn the danger into a disaster, if this brother and sister are really kind to the eldest princess, then they really have to be treated well, but now is a very moment, the old slave persuades the eldest princess to leave their brothers and sisters outside the palace." ”

Zhao Ying hurriedly said: "Father-in-law Liang, this palace is served by their brothers and sisters outside, and they are all used to it, so after entering the palace, I still want them to serve me, so I brought their brothers and sisters into the palace." ”

"Let them serve you?"

Liang Weijian's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt and worry, and he asked, "Has this young man been castrated?" ”

"Castration, of course castration, he is a natural father-in-law!" Zhao Ying hurriedly explained.

Liang Weijian looked at Xiao Qiang carefully, and he found that Xiao Qiang's face was as white as jade, and he had no beard under his chin, so he nodded and said, "I see." ”

"You've just been castrated!" Xiao Qiang actually knew that this castration meant purification, and he cursed in his heart. (To be continued......)
