Enter the palace

The carriage escorting Chu Zheng gurgled loudly, Chu Zheng sat in the carriage with a fog in his eyes, and he instinctively said to himself, "No, my father is not a faint king." They all deserve to die, they all deserve to die......"

The crowd around them gradually dissipated, and the carriage walked along the road leading to the palace, which was so long that it seemed impossible to see. In Chu Palace, he also walked the same palace road, but now his mood has changed......

I don't know how long I walked this road before I saw a large palace sitting there, and several fathers-in-law had been waiting there for a long time. Yan Yang looked at several fathers-in-law through the gauze curtain with a faint gaze. The leader is the celebrity around the former emperor, that is, the chief manager of Yan Yang's father during the reign of the emperor. As the so-called people go to tea and cool, and this father-in-law is still favored by the emperor after the death of the first emperor, which can be seen that the means are high.

I saw that Grandpa Cui saw Yan Yang's carriage, with tears in his eyes, red eyes, and a choked shout: "Your Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Yan Yang has spent time in the favor of the emperor since she was a child, and naturally she still remembers this father-in-law, she bowed her head slightly, looked around him with a cold gaze, rolled up the gauze curtain elegantly, looked at the chief manager in front of him who had done his best for Emperor Qi, and shouted with a sigh: "Father-in-law Cui." ”

Grandpa Cui was stunned, looking at the gorgeous and solemn woman in the carriage, her face slowly began to coincide with the childish face of the princess at the beginning, he knelt down and saluted respectfully: "Welcome Your Highness back to the palace."

The fathers-in-law behind him are all old men who have been in the palace for some years, but among these people, Grandpa Cui and Yan Yang know each other, and the others did not even have the qualifications to see Princess Yan Yang before, and their attitude towards Princess Yan Yang is naturally based on Gong Cui. Seeing that Gonggong Cui had already knelt down, and there was no reason for the others to continue standing, he knelt on the ground respectfully and shouted: "Welcome Your Highness back to the palace." ”

Yan Yang looked at his father-in-law who was kneeling down, basically some old people estimated that they had been in the palace for a long time, so it can be seen that Emperor Qi still took her sister to heart. But what she didn't know was that these were all arranged by the queen, how could Emperor Qi, who was obsessed with women all day long, still remember his sister who he hadn't seen for ten years.

"Get up," Yan Yang said with a smile to his father-in-law on the ground, and the father-in-law on the ground dared to stand up respectfully.

Gonggong Cui didn't dare to snub Yan Yang, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty heard in the imperial study that His Royal Highness has returned, and the dragon's heart is very happy." ”

Yan Yang said "um", she came to the palace to test Emperor Qi's attitude towards her, she was pampered by the emperor since she was a child, and those princes naturally had a lower status in her, and the current Emperor Qi was she at that time, but she had no confidence in him to sit in this position, not for anything else, he was not as good as the six emperor brothers in governing the country, he was not as good as the three emperor brothers in leading troops, he didn't know anything about civil and military affairs, and he was so absurd that there was a set. If it weren't for the fact that other princes passed away one after another for various reasons, how could he sit in this position, Qi Guo has also begun to gnaw at the foundation of the past over the years, it looks like the economy is prosperous on the outside, but it is already full of holes inside.

"Let's go and see Your Majesty." Yan Yang rolled up the bead curtain and stepped off the carriage elegantly, his eyes skimmed over the prisoner cart behind him and saw Chu Zheng curled up inside, and he was indifferent at the moment.

"Chirp," Grandpa Cui is such a shrewd person, he had heard that the eldest princess Yan Yang and the Chu Emperor had a son, but he didn't expect Yan Yang to humiliate her own child like this after destroying the Chu State, after all, the mother poison does not eat the child, it's just that he is just a eunuch beside His Majesty, and these things are still Princess Yan Yang's housework...... Hey, it's just a pity for such a young child.

Chu Zheng, who was locked in the prison, was wearing thin clothes, curled up in that corner without even raising his head, his white and tender little hands were now covered with ugly scars and became rough, and it was self-evident what he had experienced on the way here.

Father-in-law Cui only glanced at it hurriedly, and the other fathers-in-law didn't even dare to glance at it, the most they learned in the deep palace here was not to listen, not to look at, not to ask, the master's affairs, to be a slave, still have to be a slave.

As for Chu Zheng, how could Yan Yang take him to see Emperor Qi, so he was left here. And Yan Yang followed behind Gonggong Cui, and several people walked to the imperial study.

Yan Yang looked at the familiar and unfamiliar buildings in the palace, the people inside basically changed their faces, those grandmothers she was once familiar with had already left the palace, and the mother concubine went with her father five years ago. Now all she can rely on is a nominal identity.

To go to the imperial study, you must pass through the imperial garden, although it is still early spring, but the imperial garden is full of flowers. A woman in a light blue palace dress sat in a pavilion making tea, and several palace maids lowered their heads around the woman. The woman felt Yan Yang's gaze, and as soon as she raised her head, she staggered Yan Yang's gaze, and she continued to lower her head and fiddle with her white jade teacup.

"Who is she?" Yan Yang asked Gonggong Cui beside him.

"Your Royal Highness, it's the queen's mother," Grandpa Cui replied respectfully.

Yan Yang looked at the woman in the pavilion again, this is Mochan of the Mo family? It is said that Mo Chan is also a magical woman, Yan Yang also heard of her ten years ago, but because the two circles are different, they have never met. Mo Jiamo Chan is the apprentice of Master Fan of Guozijian, at the age of ten, he once asked a question to knock down the champion of the year, and at the age of twelve, he ended his course from Guozijian at the age of fifteen, and he was even more famous, and many beautiful people asked to marry, but Mo Chan refused everyone's proposal to marry, saying that he would not marry in this life, and concentrate on research. But I don't know why five years later, Mo Chan entered the East Palace and became the queen mother above 10,000 people under one person, and what is even more strange is that Shen Weizhi, a close friend of Mo Chan in the past, was also named a concubine, and the Mo and Shen families broke up because of this.

Yan Yang was suddenly curious about her, the imperial sister-in-law, although she was not favored by His Majesty, but in the harem, no one dared to offend the queen, except for Emperor Shen's concubine, what kind of person was the queen, maybe she could become her ally, thinking of this, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Let's go and see the imperial sister-in-law first." ”

Father-in-law Cui didn't want to urge anything, standing there watching Princess Yan Yang walk towards the small pavilion, Mo Chan also paid attention to Yan Yang coming over, took out a white jade teacup from the tea set next to him, poured the tea he brewed, and gently fanned the tea on the stove with a golden silk nanmu fan in his hand, and the faint fragrance wafted in the air, driving away a little cold air in early spring, and the people in the whole pavilion felt warm.

"The imperial sister-in-law's tea-making skills are really wonderful," Yan Yang walked into the pavilion with a smile, and caught a glimpse of the two cups of tea on the small table, one was only half a cup left, and one was still full of steaming, facing the direction she came from, it seemed that this cup was prepared for her.

"Princess Yanyang," Mo Chan bowed slightly to the maids around her, and the maid took the golden silk nanmu fan in her hand and moved the small stove away from a position, "Sit." ”

Yan Yang saw the fox fur blanket on the ground, and didn't say anything, sat down and quietly looked at the cup of tea in front of him, and then looked at Mo Chan opposite, only to see Mo Chan's eyes looking at the cup of tea in front of her, Yan Yang picked up the tea, smelled the hot air coming out, and the ethereal fragrance sneaked into her nose, Yan Yang took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that he was a lot more energetic, looking at Mo Chan's eyes with a little more sincerity, he took a few sips of tea slightly, the lingering fragrance lingered between his teeth, Yan Yang slowly put down the tea in his hand, and a smile was raised on his lips, Looking at Mo Chan's eyes with a little more inquiry, people who are willing to make tea to the extreme, she doesn't believe that this person has no scheming, unless, unless this person has no desire to fight, in the harem, how is this not a kind of ability?

Mo Chan glanced at the teacup she put down, her face remained unchanged, and she asked with a slight bow: "Does the princess think this tea is not in line with the taste?" ”

Yan Yang smiled lightly and said, "How can this tea be bad?" It's just that this person can do better. ”

Mo Chan picked up her own cup of tea on the table and took a sip, then looked at Yan Yang's smiling expression, seemed to understand something, put down her teacup, looked at the floating tea leaves on it, and said indifferently: "What if this person doesn't want to?" ”

The smile on Yan Yang's face paused, and she looked at Mo Chan's eyes with a trace of indifference and a hint of complexity, and finally she smiled: "Then, just disturb." ”

"Yo, my sister is so lively today?" Outside the pavilion, a luxurious woman in a bright red palace dress covered her lips and smiled, looking at Mo Chan with malice in her eyes.

"See the concubine Niangniang," everyone looked at the people who came, and knelt down to pay homage, Yan Yang looked at the concubine who walked slowly with interest, she was Shen Weizhi? It seems that the discord between the queen and the concubine is not alarmist. Mo Chan didn't look at the comer, she lowered her head and picked up her teacup and continued to drink the tea in the cup, as if she didn't see anyone at all.

Shen Weizhi was not annoyed, looked at Yan Yang, who was sitting opposite Mo Chan, and smiled majestically, "Princess Yan Yang." ”

Yan Yang looked at Shen Weizhi in a red palace dress carefully, she was the only one who slapped the queen in the face so openly, but she had to say that she was more suitable for surviving in the harem than Mo Chan.
