Chapter 40: The Palace Goes to the Banquet 1

"Ah Ling~"

In a trance, she seemed to hear someone calling her name and shook her head, she thought she had heard it wrong. Just as she was about to find a tall building to see where Meng Ruyue had gone, there was a sudden panicked cry on the street, and she turned her head sideways to see a crazy horse galloping towards her.

She could have easily avoided it, but before she could move, a white figure had already passed by the street, and when the warm incense enveloped her, she had been taken to the safety of the street in an instant.

In the dim light, Feng Mingzhen's handsome face leaned over and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Mu Lingkong's heart moved slightly, and he shook his head, "It's okay!" ”

Feng Mingzhen let go of her at this time, looked at her thin little clothes, untied her cloak, and put it firmly on her, "It's such a cold day, why don't you bring a cloak out!" ”

Mu Lingkong tilted his head, "Have you ever seen a little guy wearing a cloak?" ”

Feng Ming shook his head with a smile, put the hood on her again, and let go of his hand when he saw that it was tightly wrapped, "I'll send you back!" ”

Mu Lingkong hurriedly shook his head, "Ruyue is gone, I still have to find her!" ”

"I'll send you back first, and then arrange for someone to find Miss Meng Er, and when you arrive at the gate of the mansion, you will naturally see her people."

When Feng Mingzhen said this, there was a power that made people naturally convincing, so she obediently followed back.

When the two of them were far away, one of the people in the dark alley on the side of the street also withdrew his gaze.

He slowly put his sword back into its sheath, looked sideways at the dead bodies lying all over the alley, and said coldly to the people standing behind him, "Clean up!" ”

Looking at the two people walking away from the street, their palms suddenly clenched into fists, and their bones were almost white.

He intercepted his father's secret report, and learned that the princess was missing near Cloud Chasing City, worried, he hurried all the way over, and finally saw Mu Lingkong after searching on the street for many days, and he couldn't help shouting under the excitement, and at the same time he also found the abnormality of the surrounding alleys, and then turned back into the alley to intercept and kill a group of killers.

He couldn't help but murmur again, "Ah Ling......"

After the alley was cleaned up, a black-clothed guard stepped forward, "Master, doesn't it matter if you intercept and kill the killer of the prince?" The prince is now deliberately promoting the fourth prince to fight against you, and now you ......"

"Needless to say, I've got my own thoughts." He glanced at the street where there was no longer a human figure, and thought secretly, Ah Ling, you wait for me, I will sweep away all the people and things that harm you for you, and not let you be hurt in the slightest!

When he walked out of the alley, he had a slight smile on his face again, his charming peach blossom eyes were full of affection, and in the cold wind, his lips were ruddy like peach blossoms in March.

He slowly put on the hood of his cloak, "Let's go back to the North Underworld, send someone here to keep an eye on it, and let me know as soon as there is any change!" ”

When Mu Lingkong and Feng Mingzhen arrived at the mouth of the alley where the Prime Minister's Mansion was located, they didn't stand for a while, and they heard the sound of the wheels of the carriage gurgling, and she looked at it, a guard drove the carriage to this side, and Meng Ruyue had already lifted the curtain and waved at her from a long distance.

Mu Lingkong saw that someone was coming, so he untied the cloak on his body and returned it to Feng Mingzhen, "It's really troublesome Your Highness today!" ”

Feng Mingzhen took the cloak and smiled slightly, "It's nothing!" ”

Over there, Meng Ruyue had already jumped out of the carriage, walked over in a few steps, and saluted Feng Mingzhen first, before complaining to Mu Lingkong in a low voice, "Why didn't I see you again when I turned my head!" ”

Mu Lingkong took her arm and walked to the house, "Yes, yes, let's go, let's go, my fault!" ”

The two sneaked back to the house again, and as soon as they entered the Qingshui Courtyard, they saw Dongxue and Qingli walking around the courtyard against the cold wind, and when they saw her, they both ran over, "Miss, you're finally back!" ”

"Is something wrong?"

Qingli said quickly, "The lord has just returned to the house, and I heard that tomorrow His Majesty will have a banquet in Zhaoren Palace, and all officials above the third rank will bring their families to attend, and it is estimated that the housekeeper will come to pass the word!" ”

Then the two of them didn't stop, they had already stripped off Mu Lingkong's little clothes, changed into a jade-colored regular clothes, and were still wearing belts, when they heard the voice of the housekeeper Meng Ze sounding outside the courtyard, "Miss, are you sleeping?" ”

Mu Lingkong motioned for Qingli to open the door, "Not yet!" ”

Meng Ze stood in the middle of the courtyard, and said neither high nor low, "Miss, tomorrow the lord will bring his family into the palace for a banquet, you should dress up in time tomorrow morning, don't miss the time to enter the palace." ”

"Got it, there's a housekeeper Lao Meng!"

Before dawn the next day, Mu Lingkong in her sleep was pulled up by Qingli, smeared with grease and powder, and put Huadian jewelry on her as much as possible, and when she opened her eyes, she couldn't help but be startled, is this person in the mirror still her?

The head of green silk is combed into a cloud bun, and an agate hairpin of excellent color is carved into a lifelike plum hairpin, which is inserted obliquely into the bun, and there is no other decoration on the head.

And a plum blossom-shaped flower is also pasted on the forehead, and the eyes are swept out of a faint crimson, which makes a pair of eyes particularly bright and moving.

Although the dress is elegant, it has its own style, moving and unconventional.

Then she changed into a purple silk and emerald dress, and put on a soft wool brocade cloak, and then went out of the room and went to the door.

When all the people in the mansion arrived, the carriage that Meng Huai'an and his wife rode took the lead, followed by the carriage of the late aunt and the ladies, and marched to the palace in a mighty way.

Mu Lingkong opened the corner of the carriage curtain, looked outside, and sighed in his heart, which palace in the world is much the same, nothing more than red walls and glazed tiles, solemn and solemn, extraordinary, and at the same time, people are breathless.

According to the rules, the official carriages and horses had to walk into the palace after arriving at the Xuanzhi Gate, so at this time, the Xuanzhi Gate was densely packed with carriages from various prefectures, and when they got off the car, they met familiar people and greeted them.

Mu Lingkong saw a group of black-armored soldiers coming from a distance, not like the forbidden army, but with the killing intent and sharpness of the battlefield to the death, she squinted her eyes slightly, and asked Meng Ruyue next to her, "Is that the forbidden army?" ”

Meng Ruyue followed and took a look, "I don't know the people, I know the armor, this is His Royal Highness the Prince's personal soldiers, the Black Armor Army!" I heard that today the Black Armor Army assisted the Forbidden Army in guarding the palace. ”

"Oh!" Mu Lingkong turned his head to look again, and his eyes lit up a little.

Prince Nanyue's black armor army is famous all over the world, although there are only 5,000 people, I heard that all of them are elites with one enemy and one hundred, and they are fierce generals on the battlefield, but I don't know who is more powerful compared to her frost and snow battalion.

Meng Ruyue pushed her beside her, "Don't look at it, we're going to enter the palace!" ”

Mu Lingkong suddenly turned his head, and saw the palace door slowly opening in front of him, and inside, it was where the imperial power of the Nanyue Kingdom was located, the Nanyue Palace.
