A carriage with a pale blue curtain slowly drove towards the east gate of the palace.

The two guards wondered, "Go in one, why is there another one?" ”

"Who knows, let's see." Another guard said.

The carriage stopped, Yang Fei'er opened the curtain, jumped down from the carriage, saw the two guards coming towards her, and said with a smile: "Hello two eldest brothers, I am a disciple of the Holy Virgin, and the emperor asked me to enter the palace to discuss the marriage between the Holy Mother and the Holy Mother, please be accommodating." As she spoke, she took out two silver tickets from her sleeve, which amounted to five hundred taels.

One of the guards saw that another fat sheep had come, and his eyes were green when he looked at the heavy silver ticket, and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, girl, wait a minute." "After that, I will take the silver ticket.

"Wait." Another guard shouted.

The money-greedy one said, "What's wrong with you?" ”

The guard said, "Don't you think it's strange? Just now, there was already a girl who said that the disciple of the Virgin Mary had entered the palace, why did she come again now? ”

"You're saying she's a fake?" The one who was greedy for money immediately retracted his hand that wanted to take the silver ticket, and said in his heart: What's the use of so much money? If I really let an assassin in, it would be a head-off thing, and I wouldn't be able to accept even 10,000 taels of silver.

Yang Fei'er said in her heart: Why is there still a person who claims to be the Virgin? So who is that? Could it be her?

Yang Fei'er hurriedly said: "The two eldest brothers misunderstood, in fact, which one of the people who went in front was my sister, because I pulled down something, so she sent it to me." She thought I had entered the palace, but in fact, I found that I had lost something halfway through the way, so I turned back to look for it. ”

"He doesn't look like he's lying." Said greedy for money.

Yang Fei'er had an idea and said: "This brother is really clear-sighted. ”

Greedy for money said: "That's, I'm not sure about anything else, but I Chen Siyue has countless people, and everyone here knows it." ”

Yang Fei'er hurriedly said: "It turns out that this is Brother Chen, the little girl never lies, and she blushes when she tells a lie." Also, in the canons of our Wushan Residence, it is stipulated that you can't lie, which is a big sin. ”

Yang Fei'er said and stuffed one of the five hundred taels of silver tickets into his hand. She glanced at the other guard, and saw that he looked at Chen Si with disdain.

Yang Fei'er understood: "This big brother doesn't know what to call it? ”

The one arched his hand and said, "Curt." ”

Yang Fei'er was stunned and said: How does it look like a foreigner's name. She immediately retracted her mind and said, "Actually, I can also understand Brother Ke's difficulties, but I also admire your cautious attitude. The emperor has guards like you, so it's really worry-free. ”

Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear. This is a wise saying that has been passed down through the ages. When Curt heard Yang Fei'er exalt herself like this, she hurriedly said, "Girl, you are serious. ”

Yang Fei'er saw that the iceberg had melted, and hurriedly said: "Brother Ke, this is the person I admire for you, I, Yang Fei'er, have decided to make you a friend, please accept this little meaning." As for whether I can see the emperor, I don't care so much anymore. Anyway, my sister is already in, and she should be able to do what I'm going to do. As she spoke, she handed over another silver ticket worth five hundred taels.

Yang Fei'er buttoned such a big hat on his head, which already made him flutter.

Yang Fei'er was about to leave, but Chen Si hurriedly said, "Girl, wait first, I'll go and inform you first, and see if the emperor will announce your entry." ”

"This ...... Won't it be difficult for the two big brothers? Yang Fei'er said.

Curt said: "Since the girl treats us sincerely, we should do what we can for the girl." ”

"Okay, then it's going to trouble the two big brothers." Yang Fei'er said happily in her heart.

Yang Fei'er waited outside the palace, the palace here was really incomparable to the palace in the capital. The Forbidden City is large in scale and majestic in architecture, and the palace is a wooden structure, with a yellow glazed tile roof, a blue and white stone base, and is decorated with brilliant paintings of gold walls. Its plane layout, three-dimensional effect, and form of majestic, magnificent, solemn, and harmonious, are rare in the world. When Yang Fei'er stayed in the capital, she didn't feel anything, but now that she came here, although it was the capital of the Qing Dynasty, and looking at the palace, it was not as good as an ordinary minister's mansion in the capital.

Yang Fei'er looked at it and thought to herself: No wonder the Qing Dynasty wanted to overthrow the Ming Dynasty, it turned out that everything was just a sharp word doing trouble. If it were me, I wouldn't be happy to spend my life in this wild place.

Yang Fei'er watched it for a long time, and secretly began to admire Huang Taiji in her heart, these soldiers under him, even if they were guarding the door, looked very heroic. Unlike the group of people in front of the Daming Palace, in addition to eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling all day long, they gather crowds to flirt with beautiful women, and they watch people in their nostrils.

When Huang Taiji heard this, there was a person who claimed to be a disciple of the Holy Virgin, and said, "Did she say what her name was?" ”

The father-in-law who came in to pass the word said: "I heard from the guards outside that that girl's name is Yang Fei'er." ”

"Yang Fei'er? It's a familiar name. Huang Taiji thought for a while, and finally remembered that Bo Jir had told this woman in front of her, and said, "Then you want her to enter the palace and stay in the other courtyard first, and when I want to see her, I will naturally summon her." ”

Chen Si and a eunuch came out of the palace gate, Chen Si said with a smile: "Miss Fei'er, the emperor announced that you have entered the palace." You can go in with this Gonggong Li. ”

Yang Fei'er said to the two guards: "Thank you so much, two big brothers, I will invite you to drink when I have time in the future." ”

She said to the father-in-law again: "Father-in-law Li has worked. ”

Gonggong Li smiled and led her into the palace gate. Reprinted in this book 1 /.

Although the imperial palace of the Qing Dynasty cannot be compared with that of the Ming Dynasty, there are quite a lot of pavilions and courtyards. Father-in-law Li took Yang Fei'er and walked through an unknown number of corridors, which made her head a little dizzy.

Yang Fei'er asked, "Gonggong Li, where is the emperor?" ”

Gonggong Li said: "The emperor announced that you would enter the palace, but he didn't say when he would see you, let you go to the other courtyard to live first, and when he wants to see you, he will naturally summon you." ”

Yang Fei'er scolded her mother in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Isn't the emperor very busy?" ”

"The emperor has a lot of opportunities, of course, he is much busier than ordinary people." Gonggong Li said.

While talking, the two had already arrived at the other courtyard, and Gonggong Li said, "Miss Fei'er, you can stay here tonight." ”

Yang Fei'er was about to ask something, but Gonggong Li had already walked away. She scolded in her heart: Grandma's, the eunuch is just holding chicken feathers as an arrow. Damn, you don't have that.

Yang Fei'er entered a side room accompanied by a palace maid. As soon as they entered, five or six guards stood guard at the door.

Yang Fei'er said in her heart: It's not good, is it to put me under house arrest? I'm going to probe them and see if they're really going to do anything to me.

She went over and casually approached the guards and started chatting. During the conversation, Yang Fei'er found that Huang Taiji's status in the eyes of his subjects was quite high, comparable to that of a god. And Dolgon's reputation is also good, especially for the fact that Huang Taiji can marry the Virgin Mary who is destined to return, they are all fully supportive.

Fei'er asked tentatively: "Then what if the emperor can't marry the Virgin?" ”

The little soldier stood up, blushed and said with a thick neck: "You are talking nonsense, Our Lady was born to marry the true son of heaven, and the current emperor is virtuous and benevolent, how can he not marry him." You're a woman, so I won't bother with you, and if anyone else says that, I'll have to throw him a few big mouths. If the Virgin does not marry the emperor, unless she ......"

"Unless what?"

Yang Fei'er asked. "Unless she's dead." The little soldier said angrily.

Yang Fei'er stuck out her tongue, her scalp was secretly numb, it seems that Huang Taiji wants to marry Yu'er, this matter is expected by everyone, and the people want it, Dolgon, if you don't come back, it will be really dangerous.

Yang Fei'er saw that they didn't look like people who were unfavorable to them, so she hurriedly said, "Do you think it's possible for the emperor to summon me before tonight?" ”

The guard replied: "The emperor is very busy today, and he really doesn't have time to see you, girl, please rest in the courtyard for one night, and meet you tomorrow." ”

Yang Fei'er exclaimed: "What are you doing? Does the emperor know that I am a messenger sent by the Virgin? ”

The little guard nodded: "The emperor knows, girl, but the emperor is really busy today, you better rest in the other courtyard first, please." ”

Everyone said this, and Yang Fei'er couldn't say anything, so she could only obediently go with others. Although she was nervous and annoyed, she still pretended to be calm on the surface. She stayed up all night, thinking about how best to solve the problem.

After a night of painful thinking, Yang Fei'er's face was haggard and her eyes were blank, she picked up the mirror and looked at herself, and patted her head hard, hey, this is not good.

Sticking her head into the basin, the cold water made her feel a little smarter, and her head was much clearer. A thought crossed her mind: Is this a so-called psychological tactic, and I became discouraged while waiting. No, I need to pull myself together. Thinking about it, she felt a little better. She went out to eat a casual meal, and waited for the messenger to summon her into the palace.

The wait was long, and finally there was news, but Fei'er was already groggy and asleep. The little guard called out to her several times before she opened her eyes in a daze. Seeing the little guard, he said happily: "Little brother, is the emperor free to see me today?" ”

The little guard glanced at Yang Fei'er with a strange expression, and said, "Let's go, let's go to the palace." ”

Yang Fei'er was so happy that she didn't want anything, and she followed the little guard into the palace. This palace doesn't look great on the outside, but it's big inside. Yang Fei'er followed the little guard, walking in turns, for fear of being thrown away.

After walking for a long time, he finally arrived at a courtyard, and the little guard turned around and said to Yang Fei'er: "Girl, you wait here first, and I'll go in and report it." ”

Yang Fei'er was looking at the carvings on the wall, so she nodded and said, "Go, go." ”

Yang Fei'er found that the walls on all sides of the palace were woodcuts, and the carved characters were very vivid, and they all seemed to have a storyline, and she had studied for a long time before she could figure it out. I heard the little guard call: "The emperor summoned the girl, you will see you." ”

When Yang Fei'er heard this, this was finally going to meet. He hurried into the open door.

There was a moment of hesitation in her mind the moment she walked through the door, and she thought, what if I get through this door and I can't get out again? But how can you back down? She cheered herself up, closed her eyes hard, and walked in with a heart.

The first sight of the room shocked her. Because she saw that the kneeling person in the center of the room turned out to be Yuanyuan, and when she saw Yang Fei'er who walked in the door, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

Yang Fei'er thought to herself: It's bad, could it be that Yuanyuan was actually ...... by this color emperor?

She turned around sharply, slapped the table at the man sitting in front of the desk and looked down intently, and yelled, "What did you do to my sister-in-law?" ”

The man was startled, Chen Yuanyuan, who was kneeling on the ground, and the little guard who was just about to leave outside were all shocked, Yuanyuan hurriedly stepped forward and dragged Yang Fei'er, and said, "Sister Fei'er, what are you doing?" This is the emperor. ”

Fei'er turned her head to Yuanyuan and said, "I know he is the emperor, sister, don't stop me, I came to settle accounts with him today, and I won't let him bully you in vain." As she spoke, she pushed away her round hand vigorously, and then turned her face, a slightly pale, but very majestic face, and a pair of cold eyes staring at Yang Fei'er. In an instant, Yang Fei'er was trembling, and she asked in a trembling voice, "You, who are you?" You're the ......."

The man looked at Yang Fei'er's embarrassed and flustered appearance, and smiled slightly: "Yes, I am that person." ”

Yuan Yuan was confused by them, and Huang Taiji waved his hand to the little guard and said, "You take her down, so you can treat her." He pointed to Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan insisted on refusing to leave, Yang Fei'er comforted: "Good sister, you go back first, it'll be fine later, if your sister Fei'er can't even handle such a trivial matter, is it still like words?" Go, go. Yuan Yuan walked out step by step.

Yang Fei'er turned around and stared at the man in front of her: "It turns out that you are the emperor, I really didn't see it." There was no one left and right, and Yang Fei'er didn't care about anything when she spoke.

Huang Taiji looked up to the sky and laughed, and only stopped it for a while, he stared at Yang Fei'er fiercely, and said, "Didn't you see anything?" Who do you think I will be? Scoundrel or villager? His eyes smiled wickedly.

Yang Fei'er found that anyone with status and status was not as good as he showed in front of everyone in private. Everyone has a nature, perhaps, this is the nature of Huang Taiji, although stern and domineering, but with a touch of cunning, childish naughtiness. This makes Yang Fei'er feel a lot more comfortable, she likes to penetrate a man's heart, and then prescribe the right medicine.

In fact, Huang Taiji was also looking at the woman in front of him who was full of combat power, she was more witty than any woman he had ever seen before. When I saw her for the first time above, I thought that this woman was ten difficult characters to deal with, and sure enough, he probably knew what her purpose was here. Because last night, just as he was indulging in the big dream of the future empire, another stupid woman knocked on his door, and that was Chen Yuanyuan.

At first glance, when he saw Chen Yuanyuan, he was indeed shocked. In the decades of his life, he has seen countless beauties, large and small, seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courtyards, all of them are as beautiful as flowers, and even Yu'er, who met by chance in Changbai Mountain last time, was eclipsed in front of her. The woman in front of her, as long as she smiled lightly, it was enough to make all men ecstatic, she only needed a gentle wave of her slender hand, and countless men would do whatever it took for her, even their lives. Such a woman is born with trouble, although she is very beautiful, but Huang Taiji still reminds himself very calmly: Don't be confused by beauty.

He calmly asked her what she was here for, but he didn't expect this Chen Yuanyuan to beg him not to marry the Virgin Mary as his wife, and said a lot of nonsense. But when she asked why she couldn't marry the Virgin, she refused to say anything. Even, at the end, she even told him that she could marry instead of the Virgin, provided that she spared the Virgin Mary and all the people in Wushanju.

It's really inexplicable, how can he be the lord of a country who is dignified, how can he go back on his word, besides, although Chen Yuanyuan is beautiful and delicious, he thinks that her identity is suspicious, and she doesn't match the preface and afterword, so Huang Taiji detained him. When Yang Fei'er also came, he guessed that it was also for this.

He occasionally heard Yang Fei'er's name from Bo Jier's mouth, and said that this woman was very smart and clever, not an ordinary woman, and when he was in Changbai Mountain, he also sent someone to inquire about the origin of Yang Fei'er and Chen Yuanyuan, only saying that it was robbed from the sea, and the specific situation has not yet been ascertained.

But these are not important, the key is that what he wants to marry at this moment is the Virgin, not only because of her lovely eyebrows, but also because, by marrying her, his ideals can be realized. Although it is said that the Virgin must marry the true dragon and the son of heaven is false, if this news has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, relying on this to win over the people's hearts, there is no worry that things will not be done.

But why don't they let Yu'er marry me? Is there something wrong? Huang Taiji was bent on solving this mystery, so he left Yang Fei'er. This woman, it seems, can be exploited, or, cooperated? ……

Yang Fei'er had calmed down, her face was full of pride and confidence in the past, and she stepped forward and said, "Although you are the emperor, I have to say some things. ”

Huang Taiji smiled: "If the girl has something to say, please speak." ”

Fei'er couldn't either, so she moved a chair to face him and said, "Let's not talk about the rest, just today's incident." The girl who just went out, do you know who she is? ”

Huang Taiji said: "I know, she is the maid next to the Virgin, and she is also your sister." ”

Fei'er nodded and said, "Well, it's the maid, and so am I, that's right, but do you know?" Our Lady of the Virgin and we are like brothers and sisters, and we have never seen us as human beings, and we are very close to her. But, what did you do to Yuanyuan? What did you do to your future queen's maidservant? ”

Huang Taiji said contemptuously: "What can I do? Did she come to me on her own initiative? ”

Fei'er was angry and said loudly: "She is looking for you? How can it be? She is a weak woman, powerless, she, she, she ......" Yang Fei'er herself felt that her confidence was insufficient, she suddenly felt a little cold, she rushed in desperately for the sake of her sisters, and Chen Yuanyuan, how could she take the initiative to seduce Huang Taiji?

An idea suddenly flashed in Yang Fei'er's mind, she was a little happy, and secretly lowered her voice and said to Huang Taiji: "Then the emperor, why don't we discuss something." ”

Huang Taiji said with interest: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Yang Fei'er said: "What the little woman means, that is, don't marry the Virgin, you marry Chen Yuanyuan, you see that her country is beautiful and fragrant, sinking fish and geese, how many people don't want their lives for her, even the Ming Emperor treats her as a treasure." ”

Huang Taiji stood up in a hurry, grabbed Yang Fei'er's next door, and asked anxiously, "Emperor Ming?" What does he have to do with Chen Yuanyuan? Say it. ”

Yang Fei'er thought that Chen Yuanyuan would not be so famous no matter how famous she was, so she said: "Yuanyuan's sister is famous in Beijing, and countless people are vying for it, and the emperor is no exception, but Yuanyuan is arrogant and arrogant, and no one looks down on her." But now she has a crush on you, not to mention, although the first time I saw you, I thought you were flamboyant, but now that I think about it, you are really rich and noble, I hope you don't care about the villain, forgive the little woman. In the following, it will definitely promote a good marriage between you and the round girl. ”

Yang Fei'er snickered: No man can resist Chen Yuanyuan's temptation, including the man in front of him.

But this man's mouth was wide open for a long time, and he finally understood what it was, let go of his throat and laughed, and Yang Fei'er, who was laughing, was a little unconfident. She asked dissatisfiedly, "What about you, what are you laughing at?" Okay, in a word. ”

Huang Taiji said in his heart: It turns out that she is Chen Yuanyuan who has captivated the country and the city. It's no wonder that when I first saw her, I felt that there was an invisible charm that attracted me.

Huang Taiji also heard a little about Wushanju hijacking Daming and Dongying's pro-ship fleet, but he didn't expect that woman to be Chen Yuanyuan. I heard that General Takamura of Dongying also coveted her, and did not hesitate to exchange Chen Yuanyuan for the condition of dealing with our Qing Dynasty with his relatives.

Originally, Huang Taiji also thought that what loved the country and loved the beauty more was just a boast in the wild history, but since he saw Chen Yuanyuan and learned her identity, he knew why those men at the peak of power loved beauty and didn't love the country.

Huang Taiji couldn't help but ask himself: Could it be that I am also that kind of person? No...... My heart is used to load the world, and one day the splendid rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty are also my Emperor Taiji's!

Huang Taiji finally suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Do you know what the round girl is here for?" ”

Yang Fei'er said suspiciously: "Isn't that just here to take refuge in you?" "I wanted to say that I seduced him, but I felt uncivilized, so I quickly changed my words and said that I had taken refuge.

Huang Taiji laughed and said, "Wrong, she came to persuade me not to marry the Virgin Mary." ”

Yang Fei'er let out an "ah" and exclaimed, "Really? Why? ”
