Chapter 58: Entering the Palace

In the afternoon of the next day, a spacious and gorgeous carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a man in brocade clothes and jade crowns leaned out, and the personal servant who had been waiting by the side respectfully stretched out his hand and helped him out of the carriage.

A group of people stood outside the palace gate, and the most faceable prince Fu Gonggong around Emperor Chu led a group of palace maids to wait here early to welcome His Royal Highness King Ling.

At present, no one in the palace knows that His Royal Highness the King of Tomb is now the treasure on the tip of the emperor's heart, and he will be summoned to the palace to talk at every three or five o'clock.

"The slave knocks on His Royal Highness the King of Ling, and the princess of the Ling ......"

Xia Taozhi got out of the carriage after him, and before she could stand on her feet, she was startled by the battle of kneeling down and shouting salutes. The breeze swept across her forehead, and she stood there stunned, not knowing how to react, which was very different from the treatment they had when they first entered the palace.

At that time, the gate of the palace was deserted, and only a small chamberlain named Li Huai greeted them at the door.

She glanced around, and sure enough, she saw Li Huai kneeling in the back row.

Song Yuanxi was already surprised by this kind of scene, and waved his hand casually, "Get up." "

Gonggong Fu smiled and bowed down to meet two steps, "Your Royal Highness is here, the emperor has been thinking about it......"

Song Yuanxi bowed: "Father-in-law Fu is tired to lead the way." "

Yes, when he was the prince of Xitu who called for wind and rain in the past, he must have been like this, and he was hugged everywhere he went. But she was very uncomfortable, so many people followed, and she couldn't even take a steady step, and a few times she accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt that was too long, and quietly tripped twice. Fortunately, Peony helped her so that she would not be embarrassed.

She was holding the corners of her skirt and paying close attention to the road, and a chuckle came from her ear, and a slender and white hand reached over, held her, and gently instructed: "Slow down, take care of your steps." "

Her face turned crimson, and she tried to withdraw her hand, but she was so tightly held that she couldn't pull it out, so she had to glare at him in shame.

In front of so many people!

The faces of the palace maids were all flying red, and their eyes were full of envy, intoxicated by this strange picture and could not extricate themselves. Most of the women in the world have no resistance to men who are born noble and have extraordinary appearance and tenderness, and they all sigh in their hearts that Princess Ling is really too happy......

A glimmer of light flashed in Gonggong Fu's eyes, but he smiled kindly: "Your Royal Highness really cares for Niangniang and envy others." "

Song Yuanxi accepted his flattery and said politely: "Father-in-law Fu laughed." "

The Chu Palace is still so resplendent and beautiful. But she didn't have a good feeling at all, and she always felt that under the carved fence and magnificence, they were all cages, in which prisoners who had lost their freedom were locked up, and they were willing to be slaves of power.

He led her in front of him, as if he felt something, and turned his head to ask her, "Do you like this palace?" "

She couldn't help but think of the young lady Xie who should have lived her life freely but was buried in this deep palace by mistake, and instinctively frowned and replied, "I don't like it."

Song Yuanxi didn't say anything more, and held her hand tighter.

It doesn't matter if you don't like it now, sooner or later you will like it, because I will let you sit in the highest position in the harem, protect you for a lifetime, and allow you to prosper for a lifetime, stay with you for a long time, and grow old.

In the blink of an eye, bursts of floral fragrance came, and the front was full of purple and red, a hundred flowers blooming, and the flowers were delicate and pleasing to the eye.

The Imperial Garden has arrived.

At this time, the flowers in the Imperial Garden are at their most beautiful and the scenery is the most pleasant. A few stone-paved paths curved and spread to all corners of the Imperial Garden. But such a beautiful scenery like a picture scroll, His Royal Highness the King of Ling and Princess Ling have no intention of appreciating it, and they are inexplicably displeased.

Others don't know, but Li Huai, who is walking behind, is clear.

The last time His Royal Highness and Niangniang entered the palace, they bumped into Princess Shuyi here, and then Niangniang and Princess Shuyi had a dispute, and His Royal Highness and Niangniang were punished by Queen Xue at that time to kneel on this stone path for several hours, and almost knelt their legs out!

However, now His Royal Highness King Ling is not what it used to be, and the crown prince and Queen Xue have also received karma, so Princess Shuyi should not dare to come again...... Bar......

He couldn't help but rub his eyes, a little incredulous that he saw the figure that was running towards them quickly.

Obediently, why is this enemy again?

"Brother Xi, Brother Xi ......"

The old rule of Princess Shuyi, people arrive before they arrive, and then in the blink of an eye, people have already rushed to the eyes, past the saluting crowd, and go straight towards Song Yuanxi.

Gonggong Fu hurriedly stopped in front of Song Yuanxi.

Song Yumei's eyes widened, "You get out of the way, I'm looking for Brother Xi, not you!" "

Father-in-law Fu has already become a jing, how can he not understand the current situation. Princess Shuyi is now out of protection, even if the emperor still loves this princess in his heart, it is indeed not as good as before. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and in the end, no matter what, it is still a golden branch, and he can't afford to be offended, so he has to persuade on the side: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Your Royal Highness Princess, rest your anger......"

"You dog, get out of the way of this princess! Don't think that Princess Ben doesn't know that you have a bad stomach! Recently, every time Princess Ben goes to ask to see her father, you have tried every means to obstruct many excuses! What is the intention? "

In the end, Gonggong Fu is also a celebrity in front of Emperor Chu, who is not polite and flattering him on weekdays, even His Royal Highness the King of Ling, who is now powerful, is not half rude to him, but now he is scolded by someone so in public, if he is still the princess who is usually high, it is just that, now that he has lost his momentum, he dares to be so domineering, don't blame him for not taking it.

The smile on his face became more and more kind, and his face was aggrieved: "Her Royal Highness the princess said so, but he wronged the old slave, the old slave is a hundred guts, and he definitely doesn't dare to stop Her Royal Highness the princess from meeting the emperor's father and daughter!" But if the emperor doesn't want to see the princess, there's no way to be a slave, right? Why is the emperor willing to see you, doesn't the princess count it? "

"You!"

Song Yumei was so angry that she couldn't speak, she grew up in this deep palace since she was a child, so she naturally knew that this palace had always worshiped high and low, and it was not strange. It's just that she never thought that feng shui would take turns, and she would have this day, and even these dog minions would dare to ride on her head to make a fortune.

Good! She endures! She's not here to fight a dog minion!

"Brother Xi, Mei'er has something to say to you alone, you let these others step down first!" She bit the word "others" and deliberately stared at Xia Taozhi.

Xia Taozhi looked at Song Yumei expressionlessly, but secretly squeezed the hand of the tsundere prince in her hand.

Do you dare to try?

Someone forced a smile and had a serious face: "This king wants to go to see his father first." "

Song Yumei said hurriedly: "I know, my father refuses to see me, I really have no choice but to come to ask Brother Xi's ......"

She bit her lower lip, her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked at Song Yuanxi fixedly, and I felt sorry for that look.

Oh, it turns out that this noble princess has come to ask for help...... But you still die of this heart, if it was your former "Brother Xi", maybe there would be a play, but this dead tsundere can hold a grudge, and he will definitely not help you.

However, she heard him answer, "Okay. "

???

She heard her right, right? The tsundere prince knew Song Yumei's thoughts about Song Yuanxi, and besides, they were not really brothers and sisters, a poor princess put down her body and begged him, and then threw herself into her arms, well, it is easy for something to happen, okay......

"Father-in-law Fu, please bother you to go back to your father first, and say that this king will arrive later."

"Yes, the old slave obeys."

"Li Huai, you take the princess to the small pavilion in the middle of the lake for a while, and after taking this king's face, I will meet you."

"Yes, Your Highness."

After giving these orders, he turned around and left, without looking at Xia Taozhi from beginning to end.

Song Yumei squinted at Xia Taozhi, with undisguised provocation and ridicule in her eyes, smiled proudly, and turned to leave.

"......"

Xia Taozhi's lungs are about to explode!

What pleases her and likes her is all fake. Seeing a beautiful woman throwing herself into her arms, he followed them without looking back!

Oh, man......

Go to a fart kiosk in the middle of the lake! She decided, took the portrait and left, and never paid attention to this dead tsundere again!

"Li Huai, where is the palace we went to last time when we entered the palace, you take me there!"

Li Huai was a little embarrassed, "But...... His Royal Highness said to let Niangniang go to the small pavilion in the middle of the lake and wait for ......"

What are you waiting for, that dead tsundere is all merry and happy!

"Leave him alone, just take me there."

Li Huai peeked at Peony, but Peony didn't dare to speak, so he had to respond.

"Yes."

The palace seemed not far from the Imperial Garden, and after walking for a while, you could see a dilapidated palace in front of it, and the people in front of the palace were busy and repairing. The last time they had come was at night, and it was pitch black with nothing to be seen, and there was no one.

She asked Li Huai uncertainly: "This is the palace we went to last time?" "

Li Huai said: "Back to Niangniang, exactly." "

"Are you sure?"

"Slave sure." Li Huaidao: "This Lanyue Palace is currently being repaired, and it is a big project appointed by the emperor, and the slaves will never be mistaken." "

A light flashed through her mind.

Lanyue Palace?!

"Could it be ......?"

"Yes, this is the Lanyue Hall where His Royal Highness's biological mother, Concubine Xian, lived before her death."

Bang! Something exploded in her head, and there seemed to be a thread stringing together many small pieces.

This deserted palace is the Lanyue Hall where Concubine Xian lived before her death, and there is a portrait in the hall, and the appearance of the person in the painting is similar to the portrait of the master hanging in his master's study thousands of miles away, and it is also similar to her......

"I'm going to go in and have a look!"
