"Wen Zhong, what's going on?"

Guan Yulin, who galloped from the official road, saw from a distance that hundreds of people and a number of officers and soldiers who were crowded at the gate of the city and made a commotion from time to time suddenly pulled the reins and stopped on the side of the road.

"Wait, Miss. ”

Wen Zhong rode his horse to the gate of the city, saw the notice on the city wall at a glance, glanced at it, and then turned his horse's head and returned quickly.

"Miss, everyone is looking at a list posted on the city wall, a wanted savage boy. And they have preached that the demons have angered the gods. It's just,"

"What?"

"There's something strange about the portrait. ”

Seeing the strange look on Wen Zhong's face, Guan Yulin, who was full of curiosity, did not continue to ask, but slowly walked over with the reins.

Looking at the portrait, it is clear that it is the young man, but when did an extra handful of hair stand up on his head?

"Wen Zhong, is this really him?"

"Miss just look at the list. ”

Looking at it from the beginning, it is true that the young man is right.

"But ...... this portrait?"

Wen Zhong didn't know what was going on, but at this time, Zhao Yu stepped forward and grabbed an onlooker and asked, and then he knew the reason.

"How is it possible, that a good thing will suddenly grow a handful of hair? Moreover, the extra handful of hair on the portrait is not artificially added, but the gods who see it with their own eyes?!"

"Do you see the gods?"

"I didn't see the gods, but there was no such hair on the demon portrait. It was only when the demon came to watch the inscription that the hair grew on the portrait without warning. At the same time, everyone saw that the demon's head also grew in an instant, and a handful of hair was exactly the same. ”

"What about the demons?"

"Chased away by officers and soldiers. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the mountains to the south.

Guan Yulin subconsciously turned her head to take a look, and all she saw was the mountains and mountains under the sunset, where was there half a figure?

However, I thought again: Why did he also come to the capital?

The group rode directly to the inner city, that is, outside the gate of the imperial city, Guan Yulin showed his identity card, and according to the instructions of his aunt He Ruohui in the letter, he handed a small jade pendant sent to Yingtian City with the letter to the messenger guarding the door.

"The person who came is He Niangniang's relatives, the county lord of Tiancheng Guan Yulin Guan?"

"Exactly. ”

"He Niangniang has already instructed that after the arrival of the county lord Guan, he will temporarily live in the guest house and not go out at will, and wait for the summons of Niangniang at any time. ”

In this case, Guan Yulin had no choice but to turn around and lead Wen Zhong and the others to the State Guest House to stay and wait for news from the palace.

It's just that tomorrow is the once-in-a-decade ceremony, and Guan Yulin still doesn't know why her aunt summoned her to Beijing. It was inevitable that my heart would think about it, so that I didn't sleep all night.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, Guan Yulin had already gotten up to clean up.

"Miss, today is the ten-year festival period, and the people of the capital are flocking to the sacrificial square outside the east city gate. ”

How could Guan Yulin not know the meaning of Zhao Yu's words?

"Well, you six don't have to stay here, just go to the festival. ”

"Miss, how does this work?"

"It's okay, it's none of his business to come to see my aunt, you just have to go. ”

In the end, Wen Zhong and the others couldn't help but yearn for the ten-year festival in their hearts, not to mention the grand ceremony in the capital. Thinking about it carefully, there would definitely be no accidents in the State Guest House, so he obeyed Guan Yulin's instructions, and after breakfast, he also went to the sacrificial square outside the East City Gate with the people on the street.

Guan Yulin stayed alone in the State Guest House until the end of the day, when she saw a little eunuch in the palace, followed by a small sedan chair and slowly walked into the door of the State Guest House.

"Which one is Guan Yulin, the county lord of Guan from Ying Tianfu?"

"Father-in-law, the little girl is. ”

"Let's go, He Niangniang summoned you to the palace to see you. ”

"Yes. ”

Guan Yulin sat in the four-person sedan chair and walked for almost two and a half hours, until two o'clock in the afternoon before being carried to the front of a very secluded palace in the palace. When the sedan chair landed, Guan Yulin bent over and walked out, and there were already two palace maids waiting there.

"But Lord Guan?"

"Ying Tianfu Guan Yulin visited the two sisters. ”

"The slave doesn't dare to be, the lord of Guan County invites in, He Niangniang has been waiting in the palace for a long time. ”

Following behind the two palace maids, along the deep passage covered by flowers on both sides, I came to the door of the main hall after a while, and saw at a glance the aunt He Ruohui, who was standing there accompanied by two palace maids, who had not met for four years, and was dressed in flowers. Guan Yulin hurriedly took two steps, and had to follow the court etiquette to bend her knees and salute first.

"At the request of Guan Yulin, the daughter of the king of Tianfu Guanjun, He Niangniang. ”

"Lin'er, you don't have to be like this, come over and let your aunt take a look. ”

was helped up by two palace maids, and as soon as he walked up the steps, he was approached by He Ruohui and looked up and down.

"It's really a woman's eighteen changes, four years ago Lin'er was an eleven-year-old ignorant little girl, and now she is a beautiful girl who has become slim. ”

was praised so much by his aunt He Ruohui, who was only two years older than herself and only seventeen years old this year, although Guan Yulin was very twisted in her heart, she had to pretend to be shy, and said casually and humbly: "Thanks to He Niangniang's false praise, Yulin really dare not be." ”

"Go down, all of you. ”

When they came to the palace and sat down, the palace maid put on the refreshments, and after He Ruohui waved her hand and drove away the palace maid and the eunuch at the door, she was very anxious to Guan Yulin's side and asked quietly: "Did Lin'er ever guess why your aunt summoned you to Beijing?"

",......。 ”

"Lin'er, call Auntie. ”

"Auntie, Lin'er doesn't know. ”

"My aunt estimated that Lin'er should arrive today, but she didn't expect it to be a day earlier. ”

Speaking of this, He Ruoyu looked up and looked around, looking very mysterious. After confirming that no one was eavesdropping, he said again: "Does Lin'er remember the emperor's announcement two years ago?"

Of course, Guan Yulin remembered that it was at that time that he met the savage boy on the official road leading to Yingtian City in Hongyi County.

"Lin'er remembers, auntie?"

Lin'er listened to her aunt. Since the emperor issued that announcement, many treasures have been offered to prolong life and even nourish yin and yang, but there is still no concubine in the palace who is pregnant with a dragon. Seeing that more than two years have passed, the emperor's body is getting worse day by day, and everyone in the harem is as anxious as ants on a hot pot. Even, some people even thought of borrowing seeds. ”

Speaking of this, He Ruohui suddenly stopped, looked at Guan Yulin in a daze, and looked at Guan Yulin's back coldly.

"Aunt won't, won't she want to ......?"

"Alas, Lin'er doesn't know. Once you enter this high-walled compound, it is like being imprisoned. If the emperor suddenly dies one day, the only way left for the aunt is to stay alone in the empty room until she dies of old age. ”

As she spoke, her aunt He Ruohui's eyes were already bursting with strings of tears.

seemed to understand her aunt's intention to let her enter Beijing, but Guan Yulin never imagined that it would be for such a ridiculous thing. Even if he has the heart, how can he have the ability to help the aunt who lives in the inner courtyard of the palace with strict guards? Besides, once the matter is revealed, this is a serious crime to exterminate the Nine Clans!

Thinking of this, Guan Yulin suddenly had an urge to stand up and run.
