Chapter 243: Entering the Imperial Court for the First Time
The next day, the two of them, who hadn't slept well, got up together to wash.
Huo Xiaoting changed his dress, and his face didn't look much like Huo Yunjing, but his posture was ......
Li Cha is not entangled.
The two had a little breakfast and rode together to the princess's mansion.
Because yesterday I saw Princess Huaiyue and Huo Yunjing also riding into the royal court.
The servants of the princess's house were commanded to go in through the corner gate.
The architectural level of Meng Yueguo is obviously not comparable to that of the Great Zhou. Although this princess's mansion is not small, it does not have the feeling of carved beams and paintings at all.
looks more than rich, but not elegant.
After waiting for a while in the outer courtyard, the servants of the princess's mansion said that the princess and the colt had come out.
Li Qia and Huo Xiaoting followed behind Princess Huaiyue's horse team.
Seeing Huo Xiaoting's eyes staring at Huo Yunjing's back, Li Qia gave him another comforting look.
Huo Xiaoting retracted his gaze and smiled at Li Qia, but his brows still looked like a layer of frost and he was preoccupied.
The princess's mansion is not far from the imperial court, and in less than two quarters of an hour, everyone came to the entrance of the imperial court.
The guards of the imperial court saw that it was Princess Huaiyue, so they opened the door and let them go.
When he was doubting whether Meng Yueguo's imperial court should be so easy to enter, he heard Princess Huaiyue in front of him say: "The last two people are from the Great Zhou caravan, see if they have any weapons on them?" ”
The guards answered, and two male and one female guards lined up.
Li Qia and Huo Xiaoting glanced at each other, jumped off their horses and let them check.
"Report to the princess, someone came with a box, which contains some bottles and jars and sharp weapons."
Princess Huaiyue turned her head to look.
Li Qia raised his eyebrows slightly, "The folk girl is a serious veterinarian, and the princess won't think that she can cure a disease with just one mouth." ”
"Sharp teeth." Princess Huaiyue said, then turned her head to the guards and said, "If there is nothing suspicious, let it go." ”
Just as Princess Huaiyue was talking to Li Qia, Huo Yunjing also turned around and glanced back faintly.
Huo Xiaoting caught his gaze, and the father and son looked at each other for the first time in seventeen years.
It's just that Huo Yunjing's gaze is like a cloud in the sky today, so faint that there is nothing left when the wind blows.
Huo Xiaoting told himself that it was the reason for the disguise.
Even if my father signaled, he would not forget himself.
Because when he was a child, he was so loving to hold him in his arms, and asked him gently: "Brother Ting, when you grow up, you must be like your father, pick up knives and guns, and defend the country!" ”
A person who was so high-spirited back then is now nested in such a small country, as an idle colt.
What is his ideal?
What is his feelings?
Huo Xiaoting only felt that grief and indignation were born from his heart.
"We're leaving." Li Qia reminded Huo Xiaoting to suppress the ups and downs in his heart.
He felt that he had always been a very calm person, but this happened......
Li Cha could naturally understand him, and deliberately approached him and gently rubbed his palm.
Huo Xiaoting raised his hand to take the medicine box handed over by the guard, this time he appeared as Li Cha's assistant.
After entering the imperial court, he naturally could no longer ride a horse.
Fortunately, the imperial court will not be as big as the Purple Palace of the Great Zhou.
Li Qia and Huo Xiaoting followed behind Princess Huaiyue and Huo Yunjing, and soon came to the main hall where King Meng Yue was.
"You wait." Princess Huaiyue turned to them again.
Li Qia and Huo Xiaoting waited outside the hall, and after a stick of incense, the maid beside Princess Huaiyue came out of the main hall and said to Li Qia Huo Xiaoting: "Your Majesty announced that you will enter." ”
I don't know if it was because of Princess Huaiyue's orders, she instructed again: "It is not easy to be able to get close to the pet of His Royal Highness the King." If it really doesn't work, don't wipe the princess's face. ”
Li Qia knew that Princess Huaiyue also had the attitude of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and did not have much hope for her.
Li Qia bowed, and whispered to Huo Xiaoting before stepping into the hall: "Let's see if there is a chance to get close to ...... later" She hesitated for a moment at Huo Yunjing's title.
Huo Xiaoting had already replied: "Take the opportunity to act, since I came here to be your assistant, I should not leave you." ”
Hearing this, Li Cha only felt that he was illuminated by the warm sun, and even his heart was warm.
The warm thing is that no matter where she is or what happens, he will still put her first.
Stepping into the main hall, Li Qia and Huo Xiaoting met with the king of Meng Yueguo.
The king was about fifty years old, and he looked quite kind, but there was a hint of sorrow between his brows.
But Li Cha doesn't intend to use first impressions as a criterion for judging a person.
Although he was betrayed by his concubine, he didn't have any ability, and he wouldn't have sat on the throne for so many years.
"Father, these two people are from Da Zhou, and they say that they have the ability to cure insect diseases."
Li Qia thought that this insect should be the name of King Meng Yue's pet, so he stepped forward and said, "King, the folk girl is from the Great Zhou Kingdom and is good at veterinary medicine. ”
"Good! Good! Good! King Meng Yue raised his eyebrows, revealing a little joy, "I hope that the talented people from the Great Zhou can cure my son's favorite playmate." ”
Li Cha guessed that the son in King Meng Yue's mouth should be the late little prince of Meng Yueguo, which was also mentioned in the message given by Uncle Xiao.
Originally, the king of Meng Yueguo liked his youngest son the most, and he planned to make his youngest son the crown prince, but ...... Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes!
"Then please ask Your Majesty to send someone to take us there."
As soon as the king of Meng Yueguo raised his hand, two palace people took Huo Xiaoting and Li Qia inside.
And Princess Huaiyue and Huo Yunjing stayed behind to accompany the king, who had not been comfortable recently.
"Father, all the materials bought from Da Zhou this year have been unloaded into the mansion of his son."
"You can do these things."
Li Qia heard these two sentences, and when he took Li Qia and Huo Xiaoting to the apse, Huo Yunjing still didn't say a word.
So what kind of role did Huo Yunjing play in Meng Yue's imperial court?
It can be seen how much Princess Huaiyue attaches importance to him...... If Huo Yun was willing to lead the troops, how could that unjustly named concubine still be there to show off his might?
No matter how Li Cha thinks, he feels a little uncomfortable.
However, she has always been ignorant of the affairs of the court.
By treating the worms, they inquired in detail.
But just thinking of this, I heard a tiger roar, which was deafening.
Maybe this cry came too suddenly, so that Li Qia didn't react for a while, and she couldn't help but shudder.
Worm, not a cat, but a tiger?
Huo Xiaoting beside him, his expression became even more solemn, and he had already gone up and pulled Li Cha's hand.
clearly meant to take her away quickly.
Li Cha still tapped lightly on the back of his hand, signaling him not to be too nervous.
"The worm is in a cage, right?" She asked the palace people.
