Chapter 312: Entering the Palace

Thinking of this, Xie Qingyu's steps were much faster, and after a while, he finally arrived at the main gate of the academy within the specified time.

From a distance, Xie Qingyu saw the very luxurious carriage parked at the entrance of the academy, the carriage was wrapped in expensive and exquisite silk on all sides, and the gold-inlaid windows were covered by a curtain of light blue crepe, so that people outside the carriage could not find out.

"Light rumor, you are here, this is the queen's mother-in-law who came to pick you up this time." At this time, Academician Fang also saw Xie Qingyu, and hurriedly beckoned over and introduced him.

"Miss Xie, our family is polite." Father-in-law Zhang raised his eyes and looked at Xie Qingyu, and said very naturally.

"This time, there is Lao Zhang's father-in-law." Xie Qingyu then gave Gonggong Zhang a half-salute and said.

"Since Miss Xie has arrived, let's go quickly, Niangniang has been thinking about which amazing person has appeared in the academy!" Seeing this, Gonggong Zhang nodded slightly, his face was slightly displeased, but he didn't vent everything, but his tone was a little colder.

secretly said in her heart that this girl is so ignorant, but she is still from a famous family!

In the past two days, Xie Qingyu's name can be regarded as famous in the entire capital, almost everyone knows about it, originally Huangyi Academy has attracted a lot of attention, but Xie Qingyu, a new lady, can defeat Wang Lingxi, one of the four beauties in the capital, in this literary fight.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this is almost impossible, but Xie Qingyu really did it, not only with amazing talent, but also born with the national color and natural fragrance, for a while, the entire Yanjing City for Xie Qingyu became more and more divine.

"Okay, my father-in-law has worked, academician, please go back." Immediately afterwards, Xie Qingyu saluted Academician Fang again, and then got into the carriage, originally she thought that the outside of the carriage was considered luxurious, but the inside was not bad at all, or even worse.

The inside of the carriage is made of cushions made of soft silk, and its surface is made of a different pattern made of the unique embroidery method of the court embroiderer, using luxurious thin gold thread, and the roof of the carriage is inlaid with various precious stones.

It is hard to imagine that this kind of carriage is actually used to pick up a middle-grade female official like her, and if the queen or majesty travels, how luxurious the carriage will be.

Xie Qingyu sat on it cautiously, very nervous in her heart, but also a little curious and a little yearning, she had never seen the ancient palace, and she didn't know what kind of luxury it was!

"I'm tired of Grandpa Zhang."

I can still hear the voice of the foreign academician in the carriage to Gonggong Zhang.

The carriage is very fast, and some breeze can not stop blowing in through the curtain, and the things on both sides are also changing rapidly, Xie Qingyu sat in it very seriously at first, but it was really boring in the back, so he looked at the scenery outside the window.

I don't know how long it was, but the speed of the carriage slowed down, as if it had reached its destination.

Swish!

Outside the car window, there was a sound of iron butting.

"Who's coming?"

A rather neutral voice slowly came into the ears of several people.

I saw Gonggong Zhang take out a bright yellow token from his arms, and stretched it out with disdain, so that the soldiers guarding the city gate could take a look.

"Still out of the way?"

When the soldier saw the token, he immediately withdrew the spear in his hand, moved out of the way, and said with a flattering face.

"The person who was originally the queen's mother, but the official was clumsy, my father-in-law can't help it, please hurry."

"Hmph, even if you are sensible, the queen mother in the car is waiting to see you, let's go first." Gonggong Zhang snorted coldly, as if he was very disdainful of this soldier, and said quite arrogantly.

"Where do I dare to stop my father-in-law, my father-in-law will ask first, my mother's orders are important." The soldier hurriedly let a few people in.

Although Xie Qingyu stayed in the carriage, she already knew everything outside, but she didn't say a word, lest she say anything wrong, and she didn't know what the queen mother looked like, whether she was old or young.

Just when Xie Qingyu was still stunned, the carriage had already arrived at its destination.

"Miss Xie has arrived." Father-in-law Zhang whispered a word of thank you outside, and there seemed to be a hint of impatience in his tone.

Xie Qingyu slowly got out of the carriage at this time, looking at the completely unfamiliar environment in front of her, she was slightly stunned for a while, but her expression quickly returned to normal.

When she got out of the carriage and held Grandpa Zhang's arm with her hand, Xie Qingyu took advantage of the situation and put a fifty taels of silver ticket into Grandpa Zhang's hand as if inadvertently.

Father-in-law Zhang probably thought that she would give a reward before getting into the carriage, but she didn't care about it for a while, and she forgot about it, but fortunately, it was not too late.

Sure enough, after Father-in-law Zhang received the money, his complexion changed in an instant.

"Miss Xie, the queen said to place you in Zhaoyang Palace first, you put aside the salute you have with you first, and the slave will take you to see Niangniang later, but Miss Xie, you have to hold on, Niangniang doesn't like people who are late." After Gonggong Zhang received the reward, his face softened a little, and he even mentioned Xie Qingyu with words.

When Xie Qingyu heard this, he felt that the fifty taels were not in vain, the man in this world is heavy on money and a woman, and now this eunuch woman can't get it, naturally the money has to be in place, and he is new to the city, and it is good for multiple people to help.

"Thank you Grandpa Zhang, I'll put my luggage down and come out, but Grandpa Zhang's Zhaoyang Palace is so big, which room do I live in?" Xie Qingyu hurriedly said, just looking at so many rooms in this palace, he was in trouble for a while, and he didn't know which room to live in.

"Miss Xie is free to choose, this Zhaoyang Palace has always been prepared for the female officials of Huangyi Academy, this year there is only Miss Xie in the academy, Miss Xie is at will." Father-in-law Zhang replied very earnestly.

Originally, the place where the female officials of the academy lived was not here, but the queen felt that the distance was too far to deal with things, so she changed the place to Zhaoyang Palace.

Since Zhaoyang Palace has become a lady in the Huangyi Academy, the residence set up by the palace ceremony, as for those female officials who have long been on duty in the palace, they have another residence, and now the birthday banquet has not yet begun, and after the results of the Wendou competition came out, only Xie Qingyu came, and for a time the entire Zhaoyang Palace had only Xie Qingyu.

Although she had never seen the palace before, but the Zhaoyang Palace in front of her still surprised her, the huge hall, placed neatly placed books, inside are all paved with marble paths, its upper pavilion in the light of golden glazed tiles, the dark red gatehouse is more of an old taste.

"That's the case, then father-in-law, I'll go and come back quickly." When Xie Qingyu heard this, he finally understood, and hurriedly walked into the hall, picked a side room at random, and put his luggage aside.

At this time, the carriage had been driven into the exclusive stables in the palace, but fortunately, Zhaoyang Palace was not far from the Fengqi Palace where the queen lived.

Father-in-law Zhang watched Xie Qingyu enter, and hurriedly took out the silver ticket given by Xie Qingyu, and was so satisfied that he saw the style of fifty taels of silver in it, and finally smiled.

Secretly, this Xie family's people are arrogant.

After Xie Qingyu put down the things, he immediately walked out quickly.

"Miss Xie, put things away so quickly?" Gonggong Zhang saw that Xie Qingyu's figure quickly walked out, and hurriedly put the silver ticket in his hand into his arms, and said earnestly.

"How dare you make the queen wait for a long time, Grandpa Zhang, let's go." Xie Qingyu nodded lightly, although the queen mother did not say exactly when it was, but this kind of thing, and it is the first time, naturally the sooner the better.

"Miss Xie is really a well-mannered person, so let's leave now." Father-in-law Zhang saw that Xie Qingyu before meeting was so polite, and his impression of Xie Qingyu was getting better and better.

But after thinking about it, this is understandable, after all, the main test of this Wendou is etiquette, if Xie Qingyu's etiquette is not outstanding, how can he stand out from so many ladies in the academy?

Xie Qingyu then followed behind Gonggong Zhang, and the two walked together towards the Fengqi Palace where the queen mother was.

Along the way, Xie Qingyu just looked at everything around him indifferently, the high palace wall blocked all the people in the inner palace, Xie Qingyu sat in the carriage before and didn't feel it, but after coming out, he only felt that people were so small, no wonder outsiders often said that once he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and it seemed that if he entered the inner palace, it would be difficult to go out again.

The dark red palace wall seems to block everything outside, and the palace wall is covered with glazed tiles that also shine, which looks gorgeous.

The floors are made of fine marble, and everywhere is gentle, without the slightest hint of steepness.

Along the way, Xie Qingyu saw many palace maids in pink palace clothes, combing their hair in neat buns, all walking towards the front with their heads down, all with serious faces and very silent.

Xie Qingyu finally noticed something different at this moment, it was quiet, everything here was unusually quiet, and there were originally some sounds of reading in the academy, but when he really entered the palace, it had become a sin to say more.

The two of them walked for about two quarters of an hour, and finally stopped at the gate of a graceful and luxurious palace.

"Hello Father-in-law Zhang." The two little eunuchs standing at the gate of Fengqi Palace hurriedly saluted sideways when they saw Gonggong Zhang coming in.

Xie Qingyu raised his head and saw the palace in front of him, and there were two very elegant sandalwood palace lamps placed on the stone platform at the door, and this place was contaminated with a lot of clear wood aroma because of the sandalwood.

The two little eunuchs in navy blue palace clothes only had a little light blue decoration around their necks, but Father-in-law Zhang's sleeves and neckline were embroidered with a layer of very gorgeous python patterns on his chest, which looked different from other little fathers-in-law.

The crimson palace gate is open at this moment, you can get a glimpse of the infinite scene inside, and there is a plaque hanging on the palace gate with the navy blue high-grade nanmu, on which the dragon and the phoenix dance are written three big characters Fengqi Palace.

"Miss Xie, please." Gonggong Zhang looked at the stunned Xie Qingyu and opened his mouth to remind.

The place in Fengqi Palace is very large, divided into the main hall and the side hall, the main hall is facing the palace gate, and the position on both sides of it is the side hall, but the two places are not connected, and then there is a road leading to the back house.
