Chapter 41: Please go to Lingyan Pavilion for the time being

"Let's go" Duguzhen took the lead out of the side hall of Hanyuan Palace, and only the soldiers of Jin Wuwei and Qianniu Wei were left all the way, and these soldiers watched the whole scene of the father and son fighting the ministers in the court today, and the admiration in their hearts was really like a surging river.

"Where are you going?"

"To see the Queen Mother"

"I know that I am going to see the Queen Mother, where are I going?"

"Didn't the saint say it? Yiqiu Palace"

"Where is Yiqiu Palace?"

"Tai Chi Palace"

"Where is the Taiji Palace? .... Tai Chi Palace? Do you still want to go to Tai Chi Palace? Dugu Xinci was a little dissatisfied, "Do you have to run so far?" I haven't eaten lunch, how can I have the strength to walk? ”

The three major palaces of Chang'an are also known as the three major palaces, Taiji Palace, Daming Palace, and Xingqing Palace.

Daming Palace is located in Longshouyuan, also known as the East Interior, from Gaozong to the saints are dealing with the dynasty here.

Xingqing Palace was built on the basis of the residence of the sage of Xingqingfang, where the pilgrim stayed most of the time.

The Taiji Palace was built impromptu in the previous dynasty, and was repeatedly expanded to form the Jingda Interior. Taiji Palace is actually the general name of Taiji Palace, East Palace, and Yeting Palace, which is located in the north of Chang'an City, that is, Chang'an people often say that the palace city.

Taiji Palace has Taiji Palace, which is the most respected among the three palaces in Chang'an. For the convenience of doing things, on the east side of the Taiji Palace, there are the introspection under the door, the Hongwen Museum, the History Museum, and the west side is equipped with the introspection of the Chinese book and the House of the People, which is the place where the ministers and the ministers work.

Taiji Palace and Daming Palace seem to be next to each other, but if you go through the city gate, you have to go around a long distance.

Out of Hanyuan Palace, walked down the dragon head road, to the Danfeng Gate, Dugu Xinci actually saw Qiu Bin Dugu Wu and the big bear and a dog, overjoyed, in the past to check the big bear's bag, sure enough, there was food, indiscriminately handed to the point and the king of Liaoyang County, squatting under the city wall to eat.

"There's no food in there?" Big Bear muttered.

"Why are you here?" Dugu Xinci stuffed the meatloaf.

"When I met Wen Langjun and them, they said that they would wait for you here, boss, do you have new clothes?"

"Sure, the sage Guan is talented and gave him a new dress"

"Then why didn't you give it food? It's almost the New Year, do you have any new clothes? ”

"Yes, yes, yes" Although the king of Dugu County was also hungry, he was always thinner than Dugu Xinci, chewing slowly beside the car, and replied with a smile at this moment.

"Yes, yes," the bear was immediately happy.

"Wen Langjun, what about them?" Dugu asked again

"They're ahead," the bear replied.

"Where's the front?"

"Looks like where you used to take the exam?"

"The new science and technology jinshi went to the South Courtyard of the Ministry of Rites," Qiu Bin explained on the side.

"By the way, Wen Langjun said to celebrate in the mansion in the evening," Da Xiong thought again.

"It's hard to be so busy, and you don't know how busy it will be? It's almost time to declare," Dugu complained.

Thinking about it, he instructed again, "Stay for a while, you are going to Taiji Palace, you are waiting at Jingfeng Gate, and when you see Wen Wei and the two Langjun, you will take them to Chongrenfang to find Gudra Butler"

"Steward Gudra? Old? Big Bear asked.

"Yes, remember that it is the Chang'an Club, let Wei Langjun take you to find it, find him or Stalin's son, let them arrange, and come over after finishing the business"

"Okay" Big Bear was excited, and he had a feeling that he was about to meet his old acquaintance in another country.

"Pay attention, he is now the teacher of the prince of Du Mei, the owner of the Chang'an Club, he has a head and a face, give him a little face" Dugu Xinci burped and rinsed his mouth with some water.

"When I go to see the Queen Mother, what kind of gift do you want to bring?" Dugu Xinci asked the king of Liaoyang again.

"What gifts to bring?" The king of Liaoyang County was stunned, every time he went, he came back empty-handed, but there were a bunch of rewards.

"It's really for your IQ to catch the emergency" Dugu Xinci despises.

"The Queen Mother won't let me bring it" The current Queen Mother Dugu is the aunt of the county king.

"That's just verbal talk, don't let it be a matter of bringing it, it's a matter of bringing it or not, if you don't bring it, the old man must be saying in his heart that he is not sensible, and bringing some gifts is respect, okay?"

"You look at it yourself," Dugu Wang Ye listened to it.

Dugu Xinci and Dugu Wang Ye jumped into the carriage, Ah Dog drove, Qiu Bin sat on the carriage, Dugu Wu and a few guards rode horses, and the hard-working bear had to follow, but fortunately, he was tall and had long legs, and it was not difficult to follow.

"Little prince, what kind of title is this?" Qiu Bin looked curious, he was no better than a big bear, thinking that it was just a new dress, and the purple robe was not something that could be worn casually.

"Well, Far Eastern Hou, do you say that it is better to call the little prince or is it better to listen to the Hou Ye?"

"Uh, Master Hou" Qiu Bin was stunned, is there any confusion about this?

"Hou Ye is called old, right? A certain has just been ten years old, and Hua Ye "is lonely and compassionate."

"That's still the little prince," Jian Xuan master Qiu Bin was helpless.

"Why don't you change it the next day?"

Everyone was drunk.

Danfeng Gate eastbound to Huangchenggen, turn southward, first to Yanxi Gate, this street east to Chang'an East City Wall North Gate Tonghua Gate.

Dugu Xinci casually pulled some small things such as pastries and snow clam paste, packed them in a delicate wooden box, and got off the car with them.

Helped down the king of Duguzhen, let Dugu Wu and them take the big bear and the dog to the east gate of the imperial city in front to block the two Langjun of Wenwei, Qiu Bin and Qiu Bo waited for the two of them to come out by the gate of Yanxi Gate, and went to Taiji Palace to greet the queen mother and had to go back to the Lin De Hall of Daming Palace to accompany the saint to dinner.

Yanxi Gate is facing Anfu Gate, and Anfu Gate is facing the first gate to the north of the east city wall of Chang'an.

Between Yanxi Gate and Anfu Gate is a wide street, separating the Imperial City and the Imperial City, and there are naturally no civilians coming and going, all of whom are officials who go to and from the Imperial City Council of the Imperial City.

In the imperial city, there are various ministries and institutes of Shangshu Province, nine temples and five prisons, and the Twelve Health Administrations Yatai and half of them are in the imperial city, but Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, which are more closely related to the sages, are all in the palace to act for political affairs, as well as Hongwen Museum, Hanlin Academy, National History Museum, Jixian Yuan and other institutions.

The palace city has a city wall and has four gates, once it is the Changfu Gate of the East Palace, and the Changle Gate, Chengtian Gate and Yong'an Gate of the Taiji Palace. There are two bell towers behind the Chengtian Gate, and the morning and twilight street drums of Chang'an are all issued from this.

The Chengtian Gate is facing the Suzaku Gate and the Mingde Gate, and there is a palace square about 300 steps wide in front of it.

Dugu Xinci followed the king of Dugu County and wandered around and entered the Chengtian Gate, anyway, there was food in his stomach and he didn't panic.

The layout of Taiji Palace is based on the ancient system as the front and back bedrooms, and the palace is divided into two parts: "front court" and "inner court".

The former dynasty was laid out in accordance with the "Three Dynasties System" of the "Zhou Li".

Chengtianmen and the east and west halls are the outer courts, which are "the places where the great ceremony is held and the people are inquired";

There are actually two urn cities behind the Chengtian Gate, through the Jiade Gate to the Taiji Gate, and the Taiji Gate is facing the Taiji Hall after the Taiji Gate comes in. The most respected position among the three palaces in Chang'an, and at the same time, it is also the second lowest place in the entire Chang'an City.

The lowest place of Chang'an City is also the back garden in the palace city, there are several large pools in the middle and west of the garden, called the east, the west, the South China Sea Pool, this is the ninth of the six lines of Chang'an, the hidden dragon is not used.

Taiji Hall is located in the 29 slopes, belongs to see the dragon in the field, should be placed in the palace, in order to be the residence of the emperor.

The slope of ninety-three, "The gentleman is dry all day long, and he is not to blame." "If the Hundred Officials and Offices are placed here, it can reflect the concept of civil and military officials who are constantly strong and strong, loyal to the monarch and diligent in government. So the palace city and the imperial city were arranged on the slopes of 92 and 93 respectively.

Taiji Hall is the middle of the dynasty, is the emperor's main place to listen to the government and see the court, every Shuo (the first day), hope (fifteenth) day, the saints all come to this hall to meet the ministers, depending on the court to listen to the government. In addition, the enthronement of saints, the canonization of queens, princes, kings, princesses, and banquets of tributary envoys are also held in this hall. After Gaozong, the saints moved to Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace, but every time they encountered pilgrimage and other great gifts, they still moved to this hall.

Behind the Taiji hall is Zhu Ming Gate, its north is the Liangyi Gate, and the horizontal street between the Zhu Ming Gate and the Liangyi Gate is the boundary of the Dynasty and the Bed.

The dormitory is divided into two rows of palaces before and after by a side street (Yongxiang), because this part is the dormitory, the defense is more tight, and four horizontal gates are added in Yongxiang: East Hengmen, Xihengmen, Rihua Gate, and Yuehua Gate. The south of Yongxiang is the emperor's living area, that is, the "emperor's bed", and the north of Yongxiang is the living area of the queen's concubines, that is, the "back bed", and foreign ministers are absolutely forbidden to enter. In the middle of the front row is the Liangyi Hall complex.

The Liangyi Hall is the inner court, and it is the place where the saints and the sect members meet and retreat to receive the doctor. Liangyi Hall because in the forbidden, only a few ministers can enter and the saint to discuss state affairs, so the behavior is more casual, here is often Taizong feast ministers and tribute envoys, Taizong has many times in this hall banquet more than five officials, it is the second hall in the Taiji Palace.

Taiji Palace is cold and damp, after Gaozong, this place is basically idle, and the bright and gorgeous Daming Palace has become the place where the sage governs.

This dynasty built a more elegant Xingqing Palace, the saints are in the Xingqing Palace every day, and the saints and concubines are all in the Xingqing Palace.

In the Taiji Palace for decades, except for the Taiji Palace, few saints have arrived, and the police precautions are naturally much lax.

Although most of the palaces were picked up by eunuchs, the lingering decay was immediately visible.

There is Yiqiu Gate in the east of the Liangyi Palace, and the left side of the Yiqiu Gate is the Qianqiu Palace and the Princess Courtyard, and the right hand side is the Yiqiu Palace. The dormitory of the current Queen Mother Dugu.

Dugu Doulu, Queen Gaozu Dugu side branch, young and chaste, the clan is different, the body is benevolent to the Shun clan, from filial piety to the family, indecent do not speak, non-pass can not be transmitted, benevolent hair, keenly mark the first emperor, Gaozong's beloved son. When the concubine was fifteen years old, she took the son of a good family as her widow, and was the heir of the first emperor, and the prince Rong Pi Ye was registered as a concubine.

When Emperor Wu was in power, Empress Wu's nephew Wu Chengsi instructed Wei Tuan'er to falsely accuse the crown princess Liu and Concubine De Dou of being an accomplice and curse Wu Zetian with a spell. In the first month of the second year of longevity, after Emperor Wu sacrificed to the heavens in the Vientiane Shrine, he killed the imperial heirs Liu and Defei Dou who entered the palace to see him, and the bones were gone.

Ruizong's concubine Dou will be the great-granddaughter of the master craftsman Dou Kang. Grandfather Dali Qing, Xin Guogong Dou Dan, father Runzhou Thorn Shi Dou Xiaochen. The Dou clan is docile and virtuous, especially observing etiquette. After being killed, his son Longji was only eight years old, and the female Siying and Zhiying were even younger, and they couldn't live in fear.

The concubines of the first emperor avoided it, but the lonely concubine took it and raised it, raised and taught it. Dugu Guifei had no children, with three people as children, and the three of them also took her as their mother, and Chengyi, the son of Concubine Liu, was also adopted by her.

Yan Longji, Yan Hongye, later known as the saint, posthumously called Empress Liu as the Holy Empress of Su Mingshun. The posthumous mother Concubine Dou De is the Holy Empress of Zhaochengshun, and the Dugu Guifei is the Empress Dowager of Zhen'an Cishun, and is known as the Empress Dowager of Dugu.

Dugu Xinci knew this section of the palace Xin, and looked at the Yiqiu Palace and couldn't help but sigh, it is not easy to save his life from the hands of Emperor Wu, and he can also raise the children of the people he hates, which is against the sky.

But this Taiji Palace is like a cold palace, how can you still live here? Look around, when you enter the Yiqiu Gate, there is no palace maid to guard it, and there is dead silence all around, and the palace gate is closed.

Dugu father and son knocked in front of Yiqiu Palace, and there will be an old eunuch who opened the door, Dugu Xinci looked at it, happy, recognized, one of Li Sanlang's companions in Qujiang Pond in September, of course, Dugu Xinci entered the Hanyuan Hall and knew that the so-called new Puzhou driver is today's sage microservice.

Duguzhen is actually familiar with this person, and stepped forward to call Uncle Qiu, Dugu Xinci blinked his eyes, Uncle Qiu? People from the Qiu family? Qiu Bin's clansmen? Hey. This won't be the ultimate Persia of the Taiji Palace, right?

Dugu Xinci also gave gifts.

"I want to call Mrs. Qiu," Duguzhen introduced.

"Don't you dare to be called that by the Marquis of the Far East" The eunuch surnamed Qiu smiled, he actually knew about Dugu Xinci's reward, which shows that this palace is the fastest place to transmit news.

"Seeing Taigong Qiu again, it is really a blessing to be kind."

"Seeing Dugu Langjun again, a certain is also happy" Mrs. Qiu is too old to tell the age, and the folds on his face are also trembling with a smile, "But it is really not the right time to wait, at this moment Concubine Qian De is greeting the Queen Mother"

Dugu's father and son looked at each other, and they suddenly felt congested.

Concubine Qian De, the biological mother of the fourth prince King Wu, King Wu was stripped of his title today, and the prince who was most favored by the saint was almost reduced to a prisoner under the stairs, all because of Dugu's kindness.

Dugu Xinci smashed his mouth, "Taigong Qiu, I heard that the environment of Taiji Palace is elegant, can you take someone to visit one or two?" ”

Mrs. Qiu praised Dugu Xinci, this is to avoid its edge, the son of the family was bullied, came to complain, and took the Dugu father and son out of anger, Dugu father and son can still argue with the first imperial concubine?

Dugu Xinci retreated decisively, Duguzhen was also downhill, and the two followed Qiu Taigong to the back garden to hang out.

There is a manna door behind the Liangyi Palace, there is a manna hall behind the manna gate, and after the manna hall is the back garden of Taiji Palace, one of the three major gardens of Chang'an.

"The king of the county and the little prince don't have to be depressed, the queen mother still doesn't know about the affairs of the current dynasty, and she still said to a certain person at noon that she wants to meet the heir of the prince of Liaoyang County?"

"Seeing that it's getting dark, I'll leave the palace after a while" Dugu Xinci saw that the sky was almost there, and sighed, "Why don't you go to Daming Palace for dinner first"

"What's the hurry?" Dugu Wang Ye is really not in a hurry, "Let's go home after a while, there's no better place to be at home?" ”

"Also, let Wen Dalang and Wei Erlang play by themselves, and go back to the palace to eat stewed by themselves."

"Okay, where is the pig's tail on the last halo is pretty good"

"Then let's see if there is any, I have to eat it tonight" Dugu Xinci and the king of the county chatted casually while watching, the trees in the inner garden are neatly placed, and it is refreshing and clean to see, but there is no natural charm.

"That's Lingyan Pavilion?" Dugu Xinci pointed to a corner of the cornices and said.

This is an inconspicuous small building, far less eye-catching than the magnificent Sanqing Hall on the side.

"Far Eastern Hou has good eyesight," said Qiu Taigong, who was silently listening to the chatter between the two fathers and sons.

"It's really Lingyan Pavilion? A certain is to say casually: "Dugu is kind and humble."

"Sensei listened to his nonsense, before entering the palace, a certain person told him that Lingyan Pavilion was behind the Shenlong Palace, next to the Sanqing Palace" Duguzhen exposed someone's nonsense.

"Can't you let someone put it on?" Dugu is dissatisfied.

"What's there to pretend? How do you feel when you see Ling Yan Pavilion? Duguzhen asked.

Yantang Taizong "is a monarch, drive heroes, and treat people with heart", in order to remember the many heroes who fought the world together, Yan Liben was ordered to depict the portraits of twenty-four heroes in the Lingyan Pavilion, which is the "Twenty-four Heroes Picture", the proportions are all life-size, and the portraits are all facing north, and Taizong often goes to nostalgia. The pavilion is divided into three layers: the innermost layer is painted with the most meritorious ministers; The middle layer is painted as a minister of a high prince; The outermost layer is painted with other heroes.

"I'm wondering, is it possible for a certain father and son to be like a portrait of someone to enter," Dugu Xinci said with a smile.

"I don't want to, it's possible for you to work hard?" Duguzhen shook her head.

"I don't want to," Dugu Xinci also shook his head, "No one wants to offer themselves here."

"Why?" Qiu Taigong is curious, who doesn't want to be named in Lingyan Pavilion?

"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither" Dugu felt sadly, "I can't help but be the enemy, and my relatives and friends are also ten thousand bones."

"A nice sentence" Duguzhen was too lazy to comfort, he knew his heir, there were always a few days when he was a little sad, but the past was over, and the next day he still ate and drank.

"About Lingyan Pavilion? Think about it."

"Let's have some happy verses"

"Why don't you take Wu Hook and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures.

Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis? ”

Why don't the men take Wu Hook and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures.

Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis?
