Chapter 248: The palace gate is difficult to enter
Perhaps it was because he fell in love at first sight for a long time, Xiao Jinfeng had a deep affection for the unconscious Qin Yuanxi at the moment.
This feeling has become heavier and heavier day by day since the initial disclosure.
……
It was also at this time that the housekeeper sent by Xiao Shilang to the palace arrived at the gate of the Ningsheng Gate of the palace.
The palace gate at night was naturally not so easy to enter, and the housekeeper took out the official seal of the waiter according to the master's instructions, and stepped forward to the gate guard.
Seeing a stranger approaching, the Praetorian Guard, regardless of anything else, took the lead in putting on a posture.
"Ning Palace forbidden land, idlers don't disturb!"
Ordinary people are naturally afraid when they see this Praetorian Guard, but fortunately, the housekeeper is well-informed and trembling and holds the official seal first.
"A few masters, I am not an idle person below, I am the housekeeper of Xiao Shilang Xiao's Mansion below, and I have 100,000 urgent things to inform Your Majesty."
"Xiao Shilang?"
One of the guards was startled, put away his weapon, and took the officer's credentials in his hand.
Pretending to fiddle a few times, the guard was stunned.
After all, he is a newcomer, and if he wants to say that several pavilion elders enter the palace by their appearance, he will naturally recognize them.
But how important the official seal of the squire is, it is never used as a certificate for entering and leaving the palace under normal circumstances, and he has never seen the authenticity of this official seal, where can he tell the difference.
Of course, as a palace guard, he knows the general appearance, and there is no difference from the mobile phone.
Looking at the meaty leader behind him, the guard couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Taizu's new funeral, martial law in the palace, no child's play.
Straightening his face, he handed the official seal to the brother next to him, "The official seal is real, but do you want to check it again?" ”
But when the brother heard this, he naturally didn't look at it again, and took it and handed it directly to the butler.
He pulled his voice and asked, "Since it's true, what are you talking about for the time being?" ”
"That's right," said the butler, bowing his posture as he took the official seal.
"My little young master returned from the palace and met Her Royal Highness the seriously injured Princess, Her Royal Highness is still seeing a doctor in Xiao Mansion for the time being, the situation is very dangerous, and His Majesty should be very anxious."
"Your Highness is seriously injured?"
The two guards were startled and looked at each other, trying to seek each other's opinion on such a matter.
"Your Majesty has many sons and daughters, I don't know which Highness you are talking about?" At first the guard spoke.
The housekeeper hurriedly bowed his hand, "It's Princess Yunxi, Your Highness." ”
"Your Highness?" The Praetorian Guard pondered for a moment, recalling it in his mind.
Soon, he denied it again, "Your Highness is going to pay tribute today, when did you leave the palace?" Are you fooling me?"
"Don't dare, how dare you fool the palace guards, what you said is true, it is indeed His Highness who was seriously injured." The steward is pious, and there is no falsehood in the slightest.
Considering the caution of the matter, the guards had to keep an eye on it and look at the brothers, "Strange, has His Highness been out of the palace today?" ”
The brother shook his head, "I don't know, after all, we are not on duty in the afternoon." ”
“……”
"Ahem," the guard coughed in a deep voice, "since you can't be sure whether what you said is true or false, you might as well take out the princess's token and have a certificate." ”
This can be difficult for the housekeeper.
The little master of his family is to save the princess, and he is not the princess who wants to bring a message into the palace, where is the token?
The situation is urgent, so you can't search people's bodies.
The housekeeper smiled awkwardly, and spread his face with his hands, "Your Highness has long been in a coma when he is seriously injured, where did the young master of our family get the token." ”
The faces of the two guards instantly turned cold, "Hmph, there is no token, how do you tell us to believe it?"
No matter how cautious he was, the butler's words were very suspicious.
His Royal Highness has a good and decent life, let's not say for the time being whether he will leave the palace, but how can he be seriously injured and comatose in this imperial city?
The Janissaries didn't believe that anyone had such a big trick, and they didn't believe that the royal princess would be framed.
Moreover, whether the official seal is credible or not for them remains to be examined.
For the sake of the peace of the palace, they will not believe the man in front of them, unless, it is really Xiao Shilang in front of them.
But the butler is not, he is just a butler.
The guards looked like they were guarding strictly, but the housekeeper couldn't help but be in a hurry.
His Royal Highness is still uncertain about his life and death in the house, not to mention how these things happened to the family this day, but if there is an accident, their Xiao family may also be implicated.
The butler has to complete the task no matter what, not to say that he will go in by himself, at least let His Majesty know that these are.
"The two generals are indeed the housekeepers of the Xiao Mansion, and every word they say is true."
"His Royal Highness has a noble status, and if he is not well protected when he leaves the palace, he will inevitably be framed by people with ulterior motives. The two generals should have known that just before the year, during the autumn hunt, His Royal Highness was hijacked by those thieves for profit, for this reason, His Majesty Taizu and His Majesty searched for people all day long, and almost exiled the commander of the Praetorian Guard at that time. ”
"Your Royal Highness can't afford to make mistakes, the two generals are guarding the Daning Palace, and it is their duty to protect Your Majesty and the princess and princess, for the sake of safety, if you inform Your Majesty, or see if Your Highness is not in the palace, you can know the accuracy of the matter."
"Otherwise, if Your Majesty takes the initiative to blame the two generals for negligence and causing His Highness to be in danger, the two generals will be angry."
After saying so many words, the housekeeper has always been kind and pleasant, but the words are important.
It is undeniable that he is still shrewd, and he quickly guesses the weaknesses of the two Praetorian Guards, and appropriately attracts their attention.
Sure enough, when the two janissaries heard these tirades, their faces became solemn.
can guard the Ning Holy Gate, they will naturally not be perfunctory, and they must be very clear about some things.
Just now, I just thought that what the butler said was too bizarre to be believed.
But it is very possible to think about it, after all, they know all kinds of things about His Highness, and they are familiar with the things of the past, and they are also taught to talk about it often.
Moreover, they also know that His Royal Highness likes to leave the palace, but now that His Majesty Taizu has died, several His Highnesses are not in such a bad mood.
Maybe there weren't any assassins in the Imperial City, but no one could guarantee that.
How did His Majesty the Emperor die?
The Son of Heaven does not even know about it in the whole world.
And the matter in front of him, that such an important thing as the official seal can be in the hands of the housekeeper, it must be enough to prove that the matter is serious.
When the Son of Heaven is Shengming today, maybe they went in to see the Son of Heaven and were really deceived, but the Son of Heaven will also encourage the two to be loyal to their duties and will not blame them.
Earn without losing money.
But as the housekeeper said, if they really let it go, it will really be something happened to the eldest princess......
If they neglect their duties, they will not even be able to save their lives.
The torrential rain was drenched, and the night wind could be described as cold, and the more they thought about it, the more afraid they became, and they were shocked into a cold sweat at the same time.
