After leaving from Mingxiaju, Danyang made a little arrangement, and then took Zizhu straight to the corner gate.

With Mama Zhou in charge, sure enough, there are complete carriages and horses waiting.

When it was time to get into the car, Zizhu couldn't help but pull Danyang's sleeve and whispered:

"County Lord, you really don't need to freshen up and change your clothes, do you really plan to enter the palace like this?"

Frightened, faintly with an eager crying tone, as well as overflowing worry and rejection, Danyang's footsteps paused for a moment.

She glanced down at her clothes, as if there was nothing wrong, right?

Zizhu doesn't need to look at it much, and he can guess his master's thoughts at the moment.

"Look down and sniff and you'll know."

Danyang glanced at Zizhu in confusion, raised his hand as he said, and lowered his head to sniff.

Smell of wine?

By the way, it was just dyed in the flower hall where the guests were entertained.

Tsk, how much good wine did Han Qinglan waste in the Princess Mansion?

As soon as he thought of this, Danyang regretted it again and sighed:

"The order I gave to "hospitality" before seems to be really excessive? ”

Her muttering immediately attracted a nod of approval from Zizhu chicks pecking rice.

"So, you'd better go back to Qi Shuangge first......"

But who knows, the next moment-

"County, county lord?!"

Danyang didn't wait for Zizhu to react, grabbed her arm, and boarded the carriage in two steps.

At the same time, a pleasant voice like a mountain spring had drifted to the coachman, and he said:

"Uncle Wu, go to the East Palace, you have to be fast and steady."

When Lao Wu heard this, he immediately replied loudly and enthusiastically:

"Okay, sit down!"

The moment the words landed, there was a crisp crackling whip explosion, resounding inside and outside the second door.

The carriage drove briskly out of the corner gate of the princess's mansion, and the whole carriage seemed to be filled with inexplicable joy from the inside to the outside.

But on the other hand, whether it was the little guy who cleaned up the footstool on the side, or the gatehouse and the nursing house who were responsible for removing the threshold, they all watched the carriage go away with sympathy.

To be precise, it was the coachman who was secretly worried and pitied, the old Wu Tou.

"Hey, it's so pitiful, the news of Old Wu Tou is too ill-informed."

"This is the difference in driving for the nobleman, and he can't grab it. Now it's been pushed on his head, hey. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? He was so happy to have such a troublesome errand. Tsk, pitiful, so pitiful. ”

Although Lao Wu Tou is a little old, he is still deaf and clear-sighted.

These whispers, under the tailwind, naturally reached his ears. also made him sigh in his heart after hearing it.

In fact, as early as when he returned home to feed the horses, he heard with his own ears the stewards who had just returned from the governor's hall muttering and discussing all kinds of things in secret.

It seems that the stewards have been secretly divided into two factions because of the neat and decisive decision of the county lord in the governor's hall. There are those who want to take the opportunity to flatter, gain the trust of the county lord of Danyang, and be the second steward of Sun; There are also those who are wise enough to protect themselves, and they plan to do less and make fewer mistakes recently, and they have managed to avoid errands recently.

And the stewards' hearts are fluctuating, and the people who do things below are even more panicked.

And then in the morning, all kinds of rumors spread. So much so that the maid sent by Mama Zhou to the stables to transfer cars and people was actually pushed back in person.

Probably, if he hadn't volunteered at that time, the steward's office would have had to go to the street to hire a car for the county lord.

But the county lord is planning to enter the palace!

Although he is a rough man, he also knows it in his heart. If the county lord is really allowed to enter the palace in a carriage hired on the street, not to mention that the princess's mansion will be faceless, and even the county lord will be secretly laughed at.

Speaking of which, before this morning, Old Wu Tou had only seen the Lord of Danyang from afar.

But although he didn't have much ability, and his brain was not smart enough, he had instinctive instincts and believed in his own feelings.

can think of a girl who has not eaten breakfast in the most ordinary person in the house, how can she not be a person who is messing around and making trouble. It is even more unlikely that it is the terrible master who deliberately criticizes his subordinates in everyone's speculation.

Therefore, when he heard that the county lord was in a hurry to use the carriage, he did not hesitate to take the urgency of the county lord of Danyang as his own urgency.

Maybe, after he gets down this trip, he will find trouble when he returns home.

But instead of regretting it afterwards by sitting on the sidelines, you should do what you think is right.

As for what happens afterward......

Thinking of this, Lao Wu raised his hand and patted the back of his head.

Anyway, at least he'll get a good night's sleep tonight.

————

All the way to the hurry, the carriage of the princess's mansion arrived at the east of the palace, in front of the dismounted monument outside the Donghua Gate.

In the middle of the vermilion palace wall here, a towering city platform higher than the city wall stands quietly, and the white marble Sumeru seat dotted under it extends to the outside of three zhang.

There is a city tower built on the city platform, five rooms wide, the main building with three rooms in depth, the beams and pillars are all painted with ink lines and large points of gold swirls, and the top of the heavy eaves hall is covered by glazed yellow tiles layer by layer.

So exquisitely carved, the entire Donghua Gate, which is resplendent and splendid, reflects the sunlight, and is so bright that it is difficult for people to look directly.

And here, it is only for the prince Xiao Jin to enter and exit on weekdays, and it is also the closest place to the prince's East Palace and Duanmu Palace.

In Gao Jun's city platform, there are 3 rolling gates. The outer part of the cave is square and the inner circle is round, and any one of them can accommodate two carriages at the same time.

However, although the three rolling doors here are all wide open, in fact, only the one on the far right is allowed to enter the outsiders.

And inside and outside the gate are strictly guarded by the Royal Forest Army, and the order is even better than in front of the Jinshui Bridge.

Whoever wants to enter the palace from here, or visit the crown prince, must hand in a prayer note in advance and wait for it to be transmitted.

But Danyang was not among them, she didn't even have to get out of the car, she just lifted the curtain, nodded slightly to the familiar guards, and was directly allowed to pass.

And that's not all, the little yellow gate, who was responsible for spreading the news at the city gate, immediately stepped forward enthusiastically when he saw Danyang:

"County Lord, you're here. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been talking about you for the past few days, and the slave family will go to you inside and outside the door to prepare your shoulders. ”

After speaking, Xiao Huangmen deftly beat a thousand children. Immediately after that, he turned around and straightened his posture, but his feet were like the wind and went on an errand.

Mama Danyang looked at the back in the distance, and only after a moment did she come back to her senses at the creak of the wheels, and looked up at the dazzling golden light that could no longer be seen, but still did not come to the city wall in front of her.

How long has it been?

Since the sudden change in her family in her last life, she has never been here, and she has never seen the prince's brother again.

Until the final meeting, it was just that she followed the wife who came to the palace to mourn, and bowed respectfully to a black wooden tablet with unclear words from a distance.

Even when she cries, she has to follow the old system of etiquette and follow the crowd. It can't be loud or timeout.

As soon as he thought of this, Danyang didn't know why, and his heart was like that dark day again, and he was almost suffocated with suffocation.

I could only bend down violently, gasping for silent breath and crying silently, so as not to faint completely.
