When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they were stopped by officers and soldiers. Xu Sheng showed his official card before entering the palace gate.

In this majestic palace, Si Koulin felt more and more small and powerless.

In the golden palace court, the emperor sat on the high throne, dressed in a dragon robe, solemn. The hundreds of officials in the court held official cards and stood with their bows.

"Report, the prince of Tai'an led the four princes of the Kou Kingdom to make a pilgrimage." The father-in-law said in his voice.

All the officials looked back, the general in silver armor, and the young man in white costume who followed him.

Si Koulin straightened his back, lowered his head, followed the heels of the great general, and walked step by step.

The eyes of the surroundings and the quiet coercion of the screen are even more than three years ago, when he appeared in the country of Sikou as a prince for the first time.

Xu Sheng took Si Kuolin to the front of the hall, lifted the corner of his clothes, and respectfully bowed to the emperor and said, "The son knocks to see the emperor." ”

Si Koulin stood aside and was stunned, and then slowly knelt on the ground, but he didn't know what to say.

There was a commotion among the hundreds of officials below.

Xu Sheng turned his head and gestured to Si Koulin.

Si Koulin said slowly, "The fourth son of the country came to see the emperor. ”

Fortunately, the emperor didn't care, raised his hand and smiled, "Get up." Fu said kindly, "Haoyuan Sikou, now it is a friendly fellowship. Child, you can just treat Haoyuan as your own home. ”

"Yes." Si Koulin bowed his head and said.

"Father, these four princes are still young, so it's better to let the queen mother take him." The prince paced out. Although anyone with a discerning eye can see it, what age is it still young? They are already fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers.

It's already the age when you can wear a crown and tie your hair. But the prince said that he was still young, so he was naturally still young.

However, on the other side, Prince Rui, who was dressed in a purple suit, chuckled, "Brother Huang, children at this age are greedy for fun, Yan Xue clamored for me to accompany her to study every day, why don't you let him go and be a companion with Yan Xue." "The fourth princess Xu Yanxue is at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and it is a good time to be innocent.

"Yan Xue will be in time next year, so I still have to learn more about my daughter." The crown prince bowed to the emperor and said, "Father, it's better to let the queen mother take it." ”

The emperor asked the hundred officials, "What do the hundred officials think?" ”

Below, Prime Minister Wang Cheng stood up, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that a country should be educated later to show his kindness." ”

When the head of the court bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the four princes have reached the age of tying their hair and standing crowns, so they should be assigned to serve in the palace, and they can enter the Taixue school with the prince and princess on weekdays." ”

Si Koulin lowered his head and stiffened, listening to this group of people who had nothing to do with him, arguing about what to do with him. Raising his eyes, he secretly glanced at the silent general next to him, standing up straight, looking at the ground with a solemn face, as if everything that happened around him had nothing to do with him. The rebelliousness that I had seen all the way to the border before had all been converged at the moment.

The emperor pressed his brows, and finally said, "Then let the queen take care of it." ”

In this sentence, he decided where he would go in the future. Si Koulin lowered his head, clutching his sleeve tightly in his hand, he didn't want to admit it, but he still had to admit that if he was to be selected among this group of strangers, he would rather go in the future than the general who came back with him all the way, no, it should be the prince of Tai'an of Haoyuan Kingdom.

But he didn't even say a word, didn't say a word.

In this case, why do you have to take care of yourself along the way?

Si Koulin buried his head, naturally silent, and naturally it was impossible to react or resist.

After leaving the court, Si Koulin was taken to the queen's palace with the slaves.

In the Fengxiao Palace, he met the graceful and luxurious queen, and assigned him a residence very casually, and arranged two little eunuchs and pretty slaves. let Si Koulin retreat.

Queen Xia is more dignified and dignified, she is the queen of a country, and her manners, words and deeds are all national etiquette. Her appearance is not as beautiful and enchanting as Ruan Guifei, but more of a kind and kind person in middle age.

But the wrist and ability are far from being as simple as they seem, and they can live in this deep palace without making mistakes.

"Mother, we can be considered to have made a comeback." Following Queen Xia was Xu Haoqiong, the crown prince of the dynasty. Dressed in dignified yellow, Prince Kowloon costumes.

"Who knows?" Empress Xia sat down dignified and said, "This matter can only be said to be in our hands. ”

The prince saw that his mother was still displeased, so he had to restrain his smile just now, "Yes." ”

"Now I still have to find Wolongzi. Don't let anyone else get ahead of you. Queen Xia advised, "Be respectful, don't mess around." ”

The prince didn't think about it, it was because you always had this uncontested personality that you let others climb up. But he couldn't say this by himself, "Erchen knows, you can rest assured that the queen mother." ”

"How can I rest assured? You have never understood that as a prince, you should sit upright, have the world in your heart, have the style of a prince, and not be too narrow-minded, you have no great wisdom, but you are in the name of benevolence. The queen said bitterly to the prince, "You are fashionable and kind, but now you are much more narrow-minded. ”

"Queen Mother, why do you say that about your son?" The crown prince said beside the queen, "Erchen was stupid when he was young, but when he grew up, he naturally thought more. You have said that the son was kind when he was young, that is his nature, and he will not change it. Now it's just not going to work. ”

Empress Xia listened to what the prince didn't listen to, and even quibbled. "You won't listen. That's it, stand down. "There are some things that you can only understand if you have experienced them. Now he doesn't understand it, and it's useless to say more.

"Yes, the retainers are retired." The prince bowed out. I still feel that the queen mother is old, otherwise as the queen and the prince, how can I let others climb to this position if I take some means, especially if there is actually an eight dragon ball king. When I was young, I didn't understand it, and no one taught me, but now, it is not an open and secret struggle to step on them and sit in the seat that belongs to me.

The prince came to the proton, and the queen mother was still the same. Arranged this to be a nice secluded place with beautiful maids and servants. Is this to be a proton, or to enjoy the blessings in this bustling palace?

The prince summoned the two maidservants and eunuchs, and gave some orders. Give him a little hardship first, and then come and take him away yourself.

Give a mallet and a date. Now he is in this situation, and it is not up to him to say it.

As arranged by the prince, Xu Taiyan is not doing well somewhere in this queen's palace. At first, the two maidservants and the three eunuchs were respectful. In the blink of an eye, there is no dignity. After half a day's effort, I really saw the inflamed forces and hundreds of faces in the depths of this palace. Even a small handmaid and eunuch have this ability. The attitude of changing faces is like changing people.

But it can only be accepted silently. Here, it's even as if under house arrest.

Xu Sheng returned to the Tai'an Palace.

The Tai'an Royal Mansion is well organized, the two big stone lions outside the door, the red characters on the door, the Tai'an Palace. Domineering and powerful. It's been more than a month since the last time I entered the mansion and went to the border to settle affairs. Picking up the proton and going directly to the palace again. Didn't go home.

Last time it was dilapidated and overgrown. Now, there is finally some royal appearance.

Xu Sheng stopped outside the door of the mansion and smiled. The golden eyes were filled with a rebellious look.

It's ridiculous, but what's the point? Touched the sweaty and bloody horse under his crotch, and said in his heart, take your time, it's always mine.

Dismounted, and entered the mansion. I have to praise Steward Song's ability.

The original overgrown courtyard is now such a beautiful color, rockeries and clear water, pavilions and pavilions, and the layout everywhere is exquisite, which is very pleasing to the eye. It's just that many flowers and plants have just been planted, and they are a little sluggish, and they are not very lively. Take your time, you can always grow red and willow green, full of life.

As soon as I returned to my home and settled down, I had to report to the secret agent. Even with a portrait in the middle. With the appearance of a clean scholar, this person would actually be the sect master of Dulomon.

That's interesting. Moreover, I am afraid that now I am afraid that I deliberately revealed my identity.

It turned out to be Wen Taifu's proud protégé, but he didn't know that he was the sect master of Dulomon.

I'm afraid that the threshold of the Wen Taifu family will be broken by the prince and the prince Rui. Xu Sheng burned the note in his hand.

Sure enough, spies came to report in a few days, and the prince and Prince Rui secretly wooed him, but found that the scholar was indifferent at all.

It coincides with the day of Wen Taifu's beloved daughter and Lu, and her birthday is celebrated. Invite all the important ministers to Wen Taifu's mansion to celebrate.

It is not surprising that Xu Sheng received the post, he has always had dealings with Wen Taifu. When she was young, her mother had a very good personal relationship with the princess. When I was a child, I also frolicked with the daughter of the Fu family.

prepared a generous gift and went to Taifu's house.

Among the surrounding guests, after a glance, he finally found the scholar, in the corner, drinking alone, very literati. It's just that such a person says that he is the sect master of the world, but it is not convincing.

Of course, capable people naturally cannot be taken away by ordinary people.

When Xu Sheng was looking at the scholar in the corner through the congratulatory crowd, the scholar looked up, and the two looked at each other.

Xu Sheng smiled, raised his hand to signal the wine glass, and drank the wine himself.

Unexpectedly, the scholar turned out to be a bold person, and he also raised his wine glass, took a glass of wine to Xu Sheng, and drank it.

Xu Sheng smiled, it was really not the pedantic appearance he imagined.

At this moment, a servant came loudly to report that the prince had arrived.

Many officials in the courtyard were very surprised, but they didn't expect that Wen Taifu's daughter and Lu would even be alarmed. Could it be that the beauties in the world are really so beautiful? And I heard that the daughter of Wen Taifu, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, is not only the first beauty in the capital, but also has the teaching of Wen Taifu, virtuous and virtuous, which is really rare in the world.

In this way, the prince came to congratulate her on the day of her and Lu, did he want him to be the crown princess?

In everyone's speculation and thinking, the prince was dressed in a golden imperial robe, and there was wind under his feet. He was followed by a group of attendants carrying gifts. There were two chests of treasures.

"The lower officials see the prince." Wen Taifu and everyone saluted the prince.

"Mrs. Fu, please get up." The prince held the hand of the prince. "Taifu loves his daughter and Lu, and the widow came to congratulate him."

"The lower officials are terrified." The prince hurriedly bowed to the prince, "The lower official thanked the prince on behalf of the little girl." ”

"It doesn't matter." The prince turned to look at the many officials in the courtyard. In the end, his eyes were locked on a shabby scholar in a corner.

Mrs. Wen was about to take the prince to sit at the table. But there was a servant who announced, "Lord Rui has arrived!" ”
