Chapter 118: Visiting the Imperial Temple
Chu Yuan approached the hall and saw that there were tablets of emperors of the past dynasties in front of him, and many self-portraits of emperors of the past dynasties were hung on the wall above. Since the ancestors established the Chu State, thousands of years ago have passed, Chu Yuan looked at the tablet of that statue, and his heart was full of emotion.
All the tablets are placed from the top down, and the emperor is ranked below, but it is indeed at the forefront. Chu Yuan looked at the tablet of the first emperor, stared at it for a long time, and then slowly knelt down with a heart full of respect, and made a big salute seriously.
At this time, the queen and they have also come to the door of the central hall, but they are not qualified to enter the central hall dedicated to the tablets of the emperors of the past dynasties, but after kneeling outside the door, they went to the Buddhist hall to chant and pray for blessings.
Everyone left, leaving only Prince An outside, and he was reluctant to leave. Chu Yuan didn't look back, but he could feel a hot and deep, sad and complicated gaze behind him, staring straight at his back.
Without too much guesswork, Chu Yuan knew that this person was Prince An, and Prince An's eyes were not looking at him, but at the tablet of the emperor in front of him. At this moment, Chu Yuan was really curious, he could be sure that something must have happened between Prince An and the first emperor, but what had happened was unknown to him.
"The portrait of the former emperor is the last one on the right!" Chu Yuan knelt in the center of the hall, and after bowing his head again, he slowly stood up, and saw Prince An's eyes looking upwards, looking for something in those portraits, and couldn't help but remind.
"......" Prince An According to what Chu Yuan said, he saw the portrait of the former emperor hanging on the far right at a glance, the appearance of the person in the portrait looked the same age as him, the expression was cold and indifferent, a light smile overflowing from the corner of his lips, and the proud confidence in his eyes, it was completely an arrogant and arrogant posture that looked at the world.
That person is still the old face, still chic and handsome, proud and noble, faint and alienated, which makes people look at it with a deterrent power. As before, his face and temperament are the same, but his appearance and charm look more calm and introverted, full of mature charm, and his face is indifferent, but he is free in his chest.
"Imperial Wind ......" Prince An couldn't help it, looked at the portrait of the former emperor, and called out sadly.
When Chu Yuan heard this low and tangled title, he immediately frowned, even if as Xiao Chengmo said, Prince An may have had a very good relationship with the former emperor back then, but now Prince An should not call the former emperor by name so intimately and casually.
Prince An, he doesn't have this qualification!
Chu Yuan raised his eyes and looked over, his eyes were very cold, Prince An noticed Chu Yuan's expression, and hurriedly walked out of his trance, feeling that he was a little rude, and lowered his head very ashamed and embarrassed.
"Your Majesty......" Prince An lowered his head, his voice was very dark, Chu Yuan was a little touched when he heard his voice, and he didn't seem to be able to show such a tough attitude.
"Prince An, your mood is somewhat understandable, but I still hope that you will pay attention to your identity, please respect yourself!" Chu Yuan grimaced and deliberately said indifferently.
"Yes, it's rude!" Prince An was very reluctant to look at the portrait again, and after retracting his gaze, he bowed his head and said nothing.
Chu Yuan knew that Prince An's heart might really be very expectant, and he really wanted to enter the palace and worship his ancestors, his father, and the former emperor in person......
However, the rules are the rules, even if Prince An, who almost became the emperor at that time, as long as the final result is not him, then he is not qualified to step into the palace, and the tablet after death will definitely not be placed in this imperial temple.
"You...... Let's go down!" Chu Yuan wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth and didn't know how to ask, so he simply waved his hand and no longer let Prince An disturb his mind here.
"Yes!" Prince An's mood was slightly gloomy, but he also knew the rules, and when Chu Yuan didn't have a good impression of him, it was already rare to be able to say such a few words to him with this attitude, he was content!
Prince An left the middle hall, Chu Yuan stood at the door of the hall, looking up at the clear and clear sky, a little gloomy and a little sad in his heart.
Thinking of what his subordinates reported that day, he said that Han Feng was very likely to make trouble here for a few days, although listening to his words, Prince An did not agree when Han Feng said this, but no one dared to guarantee whether Han Feng would be obedient.
Chu Yuan was a little worried that Han Feng would make trouble here, although he was not afraid of Han Feng making trouble, he always had a way to clean him up. But if Han Feng really acted in the past few days, then for Prince An, Chu Yuan would not be able to eliminate his distrust and suspicion of him.
If Prince An really defended the Qingling of the former emperor, then Prince An should explain this matter to him, otherwise, he can only regard the two as accomplices. Because he didn't know if it would be just an illusion set up by Prince An for him, the purpose was to confuse him, so as to help Han Feng complete the action.
After Chu Yuan heard the news, no matter whether Han Feng would take action or not, he was already fully prepared, if Han Feng was sent to the door to find death, then he would capture him alive. If Han Feng is interested, then he can live a few more days, and when the day of the emperor's death passes, they will settle the account.
……
At this time, Han Feng was outside the Imperial Temple, and he wanted to give Chu Yuan something to do at the sacrifice of the first emperor, but because of Prince An and for some other reason, Han Feng gave up this idea.
Knowing that Chu Yuan would bring people to the Emperor's Temple early this morning, Han Feng stayed there early in the morning, waiting for everyone to enter the Emperor's Temple, he wanted to follow in, but he was afraid of startling the snake. He could see that Chu Yuan had set up a lot of guards inside and outside the Imperial Temple, and if he wanted to sneak in, it would take a lot of effort.
Zheng Hanfeng hesitated whether to go in to investigate the situation, but received a message from a subordinate that he saw King Yi leading people in the direction of the Imperial Temple.
As soon as he heard Xiao Chengmo mentioned, Han Feng's heart was a little disturbed, he knew that Xiao Chengmo came to Chu State this time, and he did not disclose his identity, and he couldn't enter this imperial temple, so what did he do here?
Han Feng was puzzled, and his subordinates led the way to the place where Xiao Chengmo came. Han Feng went very fast, while Xiao Chengmo and the others were slow, walking leisurely on horseback, like a leisurely stroll after dinner.
When Han Feng saw Xiao Chengmo, they just stopped the horses, and Han Feng looked over to see where they stopped, it seemed to be a large courtyard. The gate of the courtyard was open, and there were two mighty gatekeepers outside the gate, and when they looked inside the gate, they could see the intricate and elaborate courtyard design.
Han Feng was very curious about what Xiao Chengmo was doing here, and quietly approached them a little closer, and could hear their conversation.
"Master Su, this is it, the master will let you live here. It's always been taken care of, with everything in it and people ready for you to call on. If there's anything else you need, just tell me!" The person sent by Chu Yuan was the chief eunuch in charge of internal affairs in the palace, he used to be the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion, although he was not as popular as Lin An now, but he was also a popular person around Chu Yuan.
Although this person didn't know Xiao Chengmo's true identity, he didn't dare to slack off, but he had seen the emperor smile when he spoke to this person, Lin An was even more respectful to this person, and he could be so valued by the masters, no matter what this person was, he couldn't provoke it, so his attitude must be sincere and respectful.
"It's hard work!" Xiao Chengmo nodded lightly, turned over and dismounted, someone took the reins of the horse in his hand, and others walked towards the courtyard towards him.
Han Feng heard the eunuch of the internal affairs speak, and immediately understood why Xiao Chengmo came here, it turned out that Chu Yuan placed him here, so Chu Yuan placed him here because he was close enough to the Imperial Temple?
Han Feng's heart was not a taste at this time, and that kind of hatred and a hint of jealousy rose and fermented in his heart, making him feel angry and aggrieved.
Han Feng was angry and dissatisfied in his heart, and after the person who led Xiao Chengmo to come left, Han Feng appeared directly in front of the door of this mansion, and at this time the guards outside the door were Xiao Chengmo's subordinates, Han Feng stepped forward and said directly: "In Xia Hanfeng, I have something to meet the next king!"
Originally, if someone wanted to go here, they could ignore it for any reason, but Han Feng stepped forward and directly said the word "Yi Wang", which made the person guarding the door have to pay attention to it, and he was busy going in and reporting alone.
At this time, Xiao Chengmo is admiring this unique style of courtyard, which is similar to the courtyard of garden design, the trees and flowers are lush and brocade, and the construction of the small bridge rockery corridor is more complementary, the gurgling water under the bridge, a plum tree with a crooked neck by the river, such a beautiful place to live, it is really detached and elegant.
Xiao Chengmo admired the delicacy everywhere in the courtyard, and before he walked to the courtyard where he wanted to live, he heard someone come to report that it was Han Feng asking to see him.
"Why did Han Feng come here?" Xiao Chengmo was suspicious, thinking that it might be that Han Feng saw them walk in, "Let him come in!"
Xiao Chengmo has nothing to taboo, Han Feng will see him if he wants to, if he really says something sensitive, he will also tell Chu Yuan as appropriate.
Han Feng was quickly led in, and at this time, Xiao Chengmo was sitting in the pavilion by the river, and the little pendant had already sent someone to serve hot tea and some fresh fruit cakes. Han Feng saw Xiao Chengmo sitting under the pavilion, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and saluted Xiao Chengmo's rules.
"Han Feng has seen the Yi King!"
"You're welcome, sit down! Small pendant, look at the tea. Xiao Chengmo replied lightly, sitting in this pavilion, looking at the surrounding scenery, there was a unique indifference and quietness, so the mood was much better, and the corners of his lips hooked up a smile as light as ripples.
Han Feng looked at his smile, his heart beat even faster, and he looked at Xiao Chengmo with a blank expression, Xiao Chengmo noticed his gaze, raised his eyes to look at him, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"There is no ......" is full of charming, Han Feng can't be indifferent, hurriedly lowered his head, and his voice was a little hoarse and whispered.
I'm sorry.,Yesterday I said two more but didn't update.,I'll make it up this afternoon!
