Chapter 58: A city is not like a city palace, and a palace is not a palace
Probably because I was pregnant, my mood did fluctuate, and although Yanyu was always coaxing me, I still cried in the dark, and my eyes were swollen like walnuts when I woke up the next day. Twilight Changyan was shocked when he came to deliver me an official document.
Dr. Yan came to check my pulse and said that I was weak. The doctor didn't say anything about the pregnancy, but told Twilight that I needed to recuperate.
After sending the official document, Twilight Changyan asked me to read it in two days, and let me rest for a few days. He also apologized to me, saying that he shouldn't have arranged so much for me to do lately. I feel guilty, and I don't really work too hard, at most it's just a little uncomfortable to be noisy, and there are few things that really have to use my own brain to figure out. As for my physical condition, it's just because I bled again yesterday, and I cried all night while pregnant, so it's okay to slow down, it's not that important.
Yanyu paid attention to Lei Nian's movements, and after Lei Nian woke up, he really apologized to Lei Nian as soon as possible. I don't know what Yanyu said, anyway, seeing Cao Kan send Yanyu out of the camp, the two of them politely shook each other, looking very relieved.
It's okay that I don't rest, but after two days of rest, my body is more delicate, I get up early to eat and vomit, and I don't know what to do when I am anxious.
Fortunately, we finally entered the gates of the Imperial City.
As I passed through the gate, I saw that the heavy, open gate had fallen crookedly, and there were countless marks of slashing on it. I thought that when I entered the city, I could see the smell of life curling with cooking smoke, but as far as I could see, the houses were either collapsed or dilapidated, and almost none of the houses had their roofs intact, which was even worse than I imagined.
Although the road is wide, the people in the dilapidated houses in the imperial city have come out to greet them, one by one wearing tattered clothes and shoes, thin skin and bones, but they are still kowtowing to me, and they are greeting me, I look really uncomfortable, so I pretend to have a headache and pinch my eyebrows, close my eyes, and I was pulled by the carriage and walked for a long time before entering the palace gate.
The view of the palace was even more terrifying, and I even saw a white bone in the corner of the palace gate.
Twilight Changyan rode a horse to my left, Yan Yu was on my right, Yan Yu often looked at me with concern, and handed me a gentle look, and Twilight Changyan, his face was already full of tears, but he always held his head high.
The city is not like a city, the palace is not like a palace, the walls are ruined, and it is desolate.
Despite this, I still saw the Lingmu Valley that Xuanhu was thinking about.
It turned out that the Xuancang Imperial Palace was built in a ring around the Lingmu Valley, and a long staircase was built along the steep wall of the Lingmu Valley.
I glanced at Xuanhu beside me, who was weeping as he stared at the dead wood at the bottom of the valley.
Looking back at the circle of buildings outside the valley, the hall where the pillars collapsed in front of the door should be the political hall, walk into the main hall, is this the place where the Xuancang coup d'Γ©tat and Lei Nianping rebelled and killed? Although it has been cleaned now, the once solemn shadow can still be seen, but there is no longer that majestic and majestic momentum.
The ministers who stayed in the palace knelt down to me in the palace, and I asked Twilight Changyan to settle the accompanying officials and people first, and then resume morning deliberations in three days.
Twilight Changyan knew that I was going to go out of the city with Yanyu in the past three days, and if I hadn't forced him in the name of the empress, he wouldn't have agreed at all. Even if he didn't say anything now, I knew how worried Twilight Changyan was.
As for Lei Nian, Yan Yu originally hoped that Lei Nian would also accompany him, and if he encountered difficulties with the night ghost soldiers, Lei Nian could block it. But two days ago, Yanyu just injured Lei Nian, and before that, I didn't have time to mention this stubble to Lei Nian before Lei Nian found out that I was pregnant, and after a toss until now, although Lei Nian also woke up, he was able to ride a horse, but I don't know if he was still angry.
Because I told Twilight to tell the others about it after I left the city, he didn't say anything more. I quietly found the relatively complete courtyard where Lei Nian lived, Lei Nian was sitting on the front steps of the door basking in the sun, and when he caught a glimpse of me coming, he turned his head and entered the house.
I had to follow him back into the room and ask him who was sitting on the couch, "King Xian, are you okay today?" β
Lei Nian sneered and remained silent.
I said again: "King Xian, look, I won't pursue you for beating me, Brother Yan has also apologized to you, you can dissipate your anger, I still want to ask you for help." β
Lei Nian sneered again, "Now that you have reached Your Majesty's realm, if you have any orders to Your Majesty, just say it directly, Xiao Wang will never die!" β
You see, this king has become a little king, and this is not angry.
Lei Nian's attitude, I don't think it's fun to let him go out of the city with me, but since I'm here, I always have to ask, what if it happens, right?
I continued to laugh, "King Xian, Brother Yan and I are going out of the city, and I want to ask if you are interested in going together." β
Lei Nian raised his eyebrows, "The same thing, Yan Yu just left, and you came to ask again." β
"Brother Yan has been here?"
Lei Nian was silent again.
"Then do you promise to go together?" I really can't serve this person anymore.
"Xiao Wang's waist card has been borrowed by Yanyu, and the night secluded garrison checkpoint can be passed unimpeded, as for Xiao Wang, his body has not healed, and it is inconvenient to go together. Your Majesty, please go back. Lei Nian gave an eviction order.
Cao Kan came over to ask me to go out, I could only go out, just walked to the door but was shocked, looking back at Lei Nian, he was wearing a sly smile.
"Lei Nian, is your waist card also unimpeded in the Yeyun Territory?" I ran back to him and asked.
Lei Nian's smile did not change and nodded.
This Yan domain, shouldn't you take Lei Nian's waist card and go to the night to find Lei Duel, right?! I yelled that it was not good, and when I saw people all the way, I asked if I had seen the Yan guard, until one of them said that the Yan guard was leading the people to straighten the fallen doorpost in front of the main hall, and I hurried to the political hall again.
Seeing that Yan Yu was directing the Yan family, the white-clothed family tied up the pillar and shouted slogans to straighten it hard, my heart fell when I mentioned my throat, and I panted and went to Yan Yu's side to blame: "Brother Yan, you let me find it!" β
"Huh? Didn't I let you lie down on your own for a while? Why are you coming out again. Yan Yu looked innocent, and the pair of watery peach blossom eyes in the sun smiled very well.
I was able to laugh out loud and push Yan Yu's arm, "Are you looking for Lei Nian to ask for a waist card?" β
"I didn't intend to take the waist card, but I just asked him to go with him, but he didn't agree, and threw the waist card in my face, so I had to take it." As he spoke, Yan Yu lifted the silver dragon pattern sign hanging on his waist and showed it to me.
I said dumbly: "He can't bear to smash your pretty face with a waist card." β
Yan Yu couldn't help but be teased by his appearance, his face was dyed with a faint flush, and he whispered to me: "Beware of your tongue." β
I stuck my tongue out at him, "Slightly, if you have the ability, you will cut it, I will never resist." β
Yanyu smiled and scratched the tip of my nose, "If you have a good rest, we will be on our way." I have already instructed that the Yan family will obey Qiao Yun's dispatch and repair the palace first. When we return in three days, this palace will have the appearance of a palace. β
