Chapter 156: The Courtyard of the Side Concubine
"Yu Zhen is not a person who is limited to details and conventions, so I don't plan to let her live in Cuiyang Pavilion." Jimo Hanfei's voice was very calm, but the displeasure on his face was obvious, "Aren't there still a few courtyards near my Lingrui Pavilion?" I'm going to let Yu Zhen live in Liurui Pavilion. ”
Hearing Jimo Hanfei's words, Du Chenghuan raised his head to look at him in surprise, the original design of Prince Jing's Mansion and the design of all the mansions of wealthy nobles are similar, the closest place to the man's courtyard is the hostess's courtyard, the hostess's courtyard is generally in the east of the man's courtyard, as for the west, there will be some courtyards of side rooms and concubines, according to different statuses, there are courtyards of different sizes, in Prince Jing's mansion, this Lingrui Pavilion is Prince Jing's courtyard, Cuiyang Pavilion is naturally the courtyard of the main concubine, although Liurui Pavilion is the largest courtyard in the west, it is twice as small as Cuiyang Pavilion, it is the courtyard of the side concubine, that is, Mo Hanfei's arrangement even Du Chenghuan feels very inappropriate.
"Lord, that's the princess of the Isidor Kingdom, or the emperor himself gave her a marriage, and she came in...... is not the identity of Miss Jiao Fusan. Du Chenghuan felt that if Jiao Yuzhen married into the palace of a close prince back then, with her identity as just a concubine in Jiao Taifu's mansion, even if she was a concubine, it would be forgivable that she would not be able to live in Cuiyang Pavilion, but now she is using the identity of the princess of many countries in Yixi, so the noble identity is still the woman of the concubine, and if she wants to live in the courtyard of the side concubine, if it is passed out, even if Jiao Yuzhen himself does not mind, it will be difficult to defeat the public.
"No matter what identity it is, since the emperor is willing to give marriage, it proves that he has let go of her, stepped into my palace, and became my concubine, so he naturally wants to accept my arrangement. Although this Cuiyang Pavilion is the largest courtyard, it is not very auspicious, not suitable for her, I hope she can live in the rich and compelling Liurui Pavilion, besides, if according to my life and rest, I go to the Liurui Pavilion is shorter and more convenient than coming to this Cuiyang Pavilion. ”
Jimo Hanfei's explanation is very decent and reasonable, even Du Chenghuan can't find something to find fault with, but he is still smart, it is impossible for him not to understand that although Jimo Hanfei does not say that he deliberately makes things difficult for Jiao Yuzhen, he is indeed maintaining this Cuiyang Pavilion, it's just that...... His current identity is a courtier, a subordinate, and it is really difficult to meddle in the family affairs of his boss, let alone a woman's affairs?
"What the prince said is, then the subordinates will go to the arrangement of the Liurui Pavilion. The Liurui Pavilion is indeed magnificent, and it will not lose face. When Du Chenghuan said this, he didn't say whose face it was that was "lost", anyway, as long as he had a heart, the listener would understand.
That is, Mo Hanfei didn't seem to care about these at all, and he didn't delve into it, but stopped Du Chenghuan: "Don't go to see the yard first." Just now I received a letter from Yu Zhen to the palace maid, saying that the protector Chang Lianying took her to Anyan Mountain, and she was uneasy, so she came to inform me, hoping that I could also go. But it's been snowing heavily these days, and the mountain roads are not easy to walk, so you can go with me. And with you, I don't think Chang Lianying will be like this. ”
mentioned the creepy young protector, Du Chenghuan couldn't help frowning, as a person from the Crescent Moon Pavilion, he was also very clear about the matter of the young protector Chang Lianying......
The identity of the young man is special and noble, his father Chang Tianlu was originally a cultivator, but because of a demon slaying and demon slashing and getting acquainted with the sister of the first emperor of the year, Princess Liuli was Mo Yingzhen, because of the appearance of the princess at first sight, life and death depend on marrying him, the first emperor loved his sister, and also felt that Chang Tianlu's magic power was very powerful, compared to what monk and monk Ke was much more powerful, so he was crowned the protector of the country and gave Princess Liuli to marry him.
Although Chang Tianlu is a cultivator, it doesn't mean that he can't marry a wife and have children, he married Princess Liuli, and guarded Qingguo for many days as the protector of the country, and he was also a figure back then. It's a pity that such a character suddenly died overnight, and Princess Liuli died of martyrdom, and when the two died, Chang Lianying, the prince of the protector of the country, was not yet three years old. The first emperor took pity on this nephew and felt that it was really unlucky to keep him in the original Protector's Mansion, so he took him to the palace and asked Princess Liuli's nurse, an old grandmother, to take care of him.
When the first emperor asked Chang Lianying, who was less than three years old, to pick the palace, he picked a place in the outer palace where Chang Tianlu often stayed overnight in the palace in the past, and there was no name, not far from the imperial study, and a strange tree planted for Princess Liuli was planted in the palace courtyard before Chang Tianlu married Princess Liuli! The first emperor felt that Chang Lianying would pick the palace because his father had lived in it and had a good heart, so he didn't care, so he gave the palace to Chang Lianying, as for the name, Chang Lianying said the words "nameless palace" in a milky voice, which may be the beginning of the first emperor thinking that Chang Lianying's baby was very weird.
Chang Lianying's appearance is a fusion of all the points of Chang Tianlu and Princess Liuli, Chang Tianlu is thin and tall, fair-skinned, handsome, and is a famous beautiful man back then. Princess Liuli is the princess of the Jimo royal family, with a pair of royal unique phoenix eyes, charming and sexy, extraordinary, but this Chang Lianying is more inclined to his mother, or maybe not as good at martial arts as his father, so now he has fair skin, a thin and squeamish body, and a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, but all this makes him look a little more feminine.
But all this is not the point! Because even if he is a feminine and charming man, Du Chenghuan has seen it for many years in the rivers and lakes, and it is not strange to see it, even if Chang Lianying is very beautiful, he will not be so impressed, let alone because he mentions him, he has to feel creepy. The reason that makes Du Chenghuan feel cold is that Chang Lianying obviously likes to wear black clothes very much, but what is revealed on his body is not black calmness or loneliness, but a strong bloody killing aura, just like a bloodthirsty executioner who has killed countless people standing in front of him, as long as he meets the sight of Chang Lianying's phoenix eyes, anyone will become his prey, waiting to disembowel!
Chang Lianying grew older, although he looked cold, but the terrifying aura became stronger and stronger, and then the old grandmother who took care of him also died mysteriously, and then the palace maid and eunuch who waited for him would die in two years as long as they became his personal palace people, so he was always taken care of by a large group of palace people in turn, and no one was willing to take care of him for more than a year. The first emperor saw these strange things, and thought in his heart that Chang Tianlu moved his mortal heart as a cultivator back then, and also married a wife and had children, so he angered the heavens, so he gave him such a special son, if it weren't for the fact that this Chang Lianying was born with the ability to kill demons and demons since he was a child, the first emperor would have regarded him as a monster.
Chang Lianying has some special prophetic abilities and the power to kill demons and break the ominous atmosphere, and he was named the protector of the country by the first emperor at a very young age, but he is a child after all, without the love of his relatives, the first emperor also avoided him, so he more or less became reluctant to appear in front of people. When the first emperor was dying, he was still worried that this Chang Lianying would make the prince Jimo and Ao uncomfortable, and suffer from Jimo and Ao's killing, so he let Chang Lianying live in the Xihan Palace of the summer palace.
Jimo and Aocai will not be afraid of Chang Lianying, he is an extremely conceited person, but the existence of Chang Lianying is not threatening to him, and the Protector of the Kingdom is like a national teacher, which can only be said to be a necessary thing for a country, there is no real power, and no country wants him to kill demons every day, so Jimo and Ao ascended the throne, and did not recall Chang Lianying, the cousin, so that Chang Lianying has been eating and drinking in Xihan Palace, causing the world to almost never remember the existence of such a young Protector.
But a few days ago, there was a mutiny, and the people in the capital were panicked, and in order to stabilize the mood of the people, Jimo and Ao invited this mysterious young protector out, that is, he appeared in public for a while, and after doing some rituals, it was time for Jimo Hanfei to take the tiger talisman to propose marriage, Jimo and Ao sent Jiao Yuzhen to the summer palace, and it seemed to have something to do with this Chang Lianying, but Du Chenghuan didn't think that Chang Lianying would take Jiao Yuzhen to Anyan Mountain.
No matter how you look at it, that young protector is not a person who has a very lively and cheerful temperament and will have a good relationship with his neighbors!
Although his heart was full of questions, Du Chenghuan still wouldn't say it directly: "The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will go with the prince." Anyan Mountain is a long way from the capital, and the snow is slippery, so it will take a better time to set off now......"
The implication of Du Chenghuan's words was that if Chang Lianying wanted to do something to Jiao Yuzhen, even if they arrived, it would be useless.
"The Lord Protector should know it in his own heart. Although I didn't have anything to do with him back then, he should also know that since I would use the tiger talisman in exchange for this marriage, if he moved Yu Zhen, I would not be finished with him. Ji Mo Hanfei rarely said such words, but when he thought of Jiao Yuzhen being with the super ominous person in his memory, he was panicked.
******
There is indeed a fire fold in the cave, Chang Lianying took the fire fold, found some firewood and made a fire, the skillful appearance does not look like a high-ranking protector at all, Jiao Yuzhen heard him say that his birth is also very noble, looking at the white hands without calluses, he also knows that he has not done any rough work......
"Seeing that you are so skilled in making fire, do you have this specialty?" Jiao Yuzhen didn't actually mean to joke, but this sentence was a bit of a joke.
Chang Lianying was obviously a person who had never joked with him, he didn't hear anything special in Jiao Yuzhen's words, he just replied very smoothly: "When I practice various rituals, the palace people will be very afraid to approach, if I don't even know how to make a fire, how can I catch demons in the forest?" ”
"Are there really demons in the world?" Jiao Yuzhen's previous life was a materialistic world, although he experienced such things as going down to the Yellow Spring and falling into the blue water, and then jumping off the Nai He Bridge and falling into weak water, and even borrowing the corpse to resurrect the soul, but he still has not seen any supernatural events other than his own experience, so he really wonders if there is nothing abnormal in this world except for her abnormality.
"It's not a strange thing that there are always demons in the deep mountains and old forests. I've seen quite a few, but if they don't kill at will, I won't arrest them. After lighting the fire, Chang Lianying turned his back to the fire a little embarrassed, let the fire dry the clothes behind him, and carried the light on his back, he looked at Jiao Yuzhen, and there was an unknown light jumping in his slender phoenix eyes, "It's a pity that there are some demons, even if they don't have the heart to harm the world, they are a scourge themselves." ”
Jiao Yuzhen didn't know that Chang Lianying was talking about herself, and took it for granted that she added: "Is this what it means not to kill Boren, but Boren died because of me?" ”
Chang Lianying didn't understand the allusion quoted by Jiao Yuzhen, but he didn't delve into it, just watched Jiao Yuzhen speak: "What I said before is still valid, if you marry me, I can not kill you, you haven't officially married Prince Jing yet, so you still have a choice." You can go and tell the emperor that if you want to marry me, then I can marry you. It's just that you want to make peace with us Daqing, and whoever marries you is, I don't think the Khan of the Isidor Kingdom will care. Prince Jing is disabled, and now he still holds the power of the army, and he will also go to the battlefield in the future, he may easily die on the battlefield like that, you should marry me instead of being widowed early. I also read it when your birthday was reported, you are only sixteen in spring, and I will be eighteen after spring, and the two are also of the same age, and the time spent together for a lifetime must be sufficient, which is better for you than Prince Jing. What do you think? ”
