Chapter 475: Entering the Palace
Tianyuan Imperial Palace, magnificent.
The exterior wall can be seen clearly for ten miles outside the city, but only when you get closer, can you deeply feel its oppression.
In the city, the golden palace is lined up, carved beams and painted buildings, above the center, the "heart of the yuan" is quietly suspended.
At night, the vast and mysterious floating islands exude a faint milky white glow, replacing the bright moon and draping the imperial city with a layer of sacred soft light.
The Zhengde Gate in the south is the main gate, the gate of Phnom Penh Zhudi stands tall, outside the closed city gate, the guards are strictly guarded by five steps, one post, ten steps and one sentry, each guard has a serious expression, the eyes are blazing, no one smiles, no one slacks, as if one by one or static or moving machinery.
On both sides above the city gate, two men in regular clothes sat at one end each, their eyes closed and their knees cross-legged as if they were pranayama, and the aura on their bodies was so light that it was difficult to detect their presence unless they were seen directly.
However, this is only in terms of vision, if there is a congenital person who comes here to spread out the spiritual sense, he will definitely be shocked by the terrifying spiritual sympathy.
Suddenly, the two of them opened their eyes at the same time, and their fierce gaze pierced into the night sky in the distance, and when they could identify the comer, the hostility dissipated and they closed their eyes again, as if nothing had happened.
After a while, Feng Moxiu took Zhan Qianwu to the square outside the door, and the nearby Praetorian Guards immediately pressed their swords on alert, and after seeing the person who came, they lowered their hands and bowed their heads to salute.
Feng Moxiu bowed in return, motioned for Zhan Qianwu to follow, lifted Feng Zhiping up and clamped it tightly, and walked towards the left side door.
There were already people waiting here, and an old eunuch with a somewhat hunchback rushed to greet him and bowed.
"Pang Xi has seen the Hou Ye and the county lord. Master Hou, you're back. ”
Feng Moxiu smiled: "Grandpa Pang, I didn't expect it to be you, I haven't seen you for a long time, I thought you went out of the palace to recuperate." How's it going?"
Pang Gonggong smiled and said: "Thanks to Your Majesty and you, the old slave is all right, thank you for your concern." ”
After saying that, he turned sideways and let go: "The old slave has prepared the carriage, and the car is covered with thick cushions for the prince to rest, and the imperial doctor is also in place, please follow the old slave." ”
The carriage came, two, Pang Xi led Feng Moxiu to the front one, and when Feng Zhiping was placed and was about to put down the curtain, Pang Xi raised his hand to stop it.
"Master Hou, you sit in the back. ”
turned around and bowed to Zhan Qianwu: "County Lord, please get in the car." ”
"Me?"
Zhan Qianwu pointed to his nose and was shocked.
Men and women are not kissed, although the children of the Wuhou family are free and easy, but they also have to talk about the defense of men and women, especially in places like the palace, the rules and regulations are not chaotic in the slightest, and the slightest difference will be spread all over the city and criticized people's laughing stock, Pang Gonggong is an old man in the palace, he knows this very well, but he lets himself ride with Feng Zhiping, what is his intention?
He didn't have the courage to do that himself, someone must have instructed him!
Zhan Qianwu thought about the person who instructed him, and he refused to take a step.
Feng Moxiu was also a little surprised, he also felt that something was wrong, seeing Zhan Qianwu's embarrassment, he took the beginning of the conversation and said: "Lao Pang, you are a little unauthentic, my virtuous niece is not the first time to enter the palace, and you don't know it, how can there be such a difficult person." ”
Pang Xi smiled bitterly: "Master Hou, county master, how can the old slave have that guts, it's really not a good way." ”
"Not on the way?"
Feng Moxiu raised his eyebrows, glanced at Zhan Qianwu, turned around and asked, "Why is it not smooth, didn't you go to Yong'an Palace?"
Yong'an Palace is where the emperor's bedroom and the imperial study are located, and they will rest there when they are busy with government affairs on weekdays, and Feng Moxiu has been left in the palace after coming to Beijing, and the place where he lives is the side hall of Yong'an Palace.
Pang Xi lowered his head and said: "Back to the Hou Ye, when the old slave came out, His Majesty sent a message, His Majesty asked you to go to the Yangxin Palace to speak immediately after entering the palace, and the prince and the county lord stayed in Changchun Palace to rest for the time being, waiting for the summons." ”
"Where, Changchun Palace?" Feng Moxiu was dumbfounded.
Changchun Palace usually lives where the royal family stays in the palace, and Zhan Qianwu can go according to the system, and Feng Zhiping is not qualified.
Now His Majesty let Zhan Qianwu go to Changchun Palace, and let Feng Zhiping go with him, what does it mean?
What the hell!
Feng Moxiu stepped forward, put his face to face with Pang Xi, and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Old Pang, don't fool me with nonsense, let me ask you, what does Your Majesty mean?"
Pang Xi smiled bitterly: "Master Hou, the old slave really doesn't know, and the old slave also wonders why it was arranged like this." ”
Having said that, Pang Xi was not surprised in his heart, but felt normal.
Yong'an Palace is His Majesty's bedroom, the most important place in the land, it is not in accordance with the rules to seal Mo Xiu to live in, but the respect of the Marquis of Mo Xiu, and the holy family is very strong, it is finally reasonable, but if his son also lives in, it will become a big joke, and it will seriously damage His Majesty's prestige.
So take a step back and place Feng Zhiping in Changchun Palace, although it is not in accordance with the rules, but with the prestige of Feng Moxiu, the weight of Feng Zhiping is barely reasonable, which not only reflects His Majesty's grace to the Marquis of the Sword but also preserves the prestige of the emperor, which is very appropriate.
Feng Moxiu didn't think so, he vaguely guessed something, stood up straight with a toothache on his face, and sighed secretly at the end, turning his head and smiling at Zhan Qianwu.
"Since Your Majesty has spoken, then this kid will ask his niece to take care of one or two. ”
Zhan Qianwu was stunned and didn't know how to answer, waiting for Feng Mo Xiu to say it again patiently, only then did he come back to his senses, and lowered his head a little helplessly: "Hou, Hou, I, that, I will definitely look for him, please rest assured." "Beautiful
Feng Moxiu nodded with satisfaction, smiled and got into the second carriage.
What kind of character is Pang Xi, he has ever seen such a twisted Miss Zhan Si, and after a little pondering, he tasted something, his old and spicy expression did not change at all, only a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he smiled and waited for Zhan Qianwu to get into the car.
When the door was closed, the curtain was lowered, and the group set off slowly.
It is not allowed to run at will in the imperial city, and if there is no urgency, it is not possible to go faster, because the speed of the team is very slow, and the clattering hooves of the horses are urging people to sleep, but the people inside and outside the car are not sleepy.
Zhan Qianwu sat in the car, holding her cheeks with her hands, looking at Feng Zhiping lying on the thick felt carpet on the side, stunned.
It's not the first time she has entered the palace, she doesn't dare to say that she knows everything about the layout of the palace, but she is definitely familiar with it, and like Feng Moxiu, she also feels that it is very strange to be placed in Changchun Palace, and she faintly feels that it is not as simple as staying overnight.
You must know that in addition to being a place for the children of the royal family to stay, Changchun Palace also has another feature - it is very close to Yuhualou and Qihuang Pavilion.
Yuhualou is the dormitory of Princess Liuli, Qihuang Pavilion is the residence of Princess Yuehuang, Princess Yuehuang is nothing, a sick seedling, she has never seen it, only her father has seen it a few times, Princess Liuli is different.
Zhao Wei, the prince of Weiyuan Hou, once euphemistically introduced Princess Liuli to Feng Zhiping, and if Zhan Qianwu was replaced at that time, she would not hesitate to tell Feng Zhiping directly, that is, a vain and mean slut.
Liuli looks beautiful, born with a penetrating charm, a pair of seductive and charming eyes, she smiled at a glance of nine out of ten men can not bear to be moved, and born in the emperor's family, since childhood upbringing and let her behave graceful and charming, which makes many aristocratic men fall in love with it, but only when you really get in touch with it, you will know how arrogant she is.
Like her appearance, her arrogance is also in her bones, and she is extremely strong.
There are many people in the capital who can make her smile, but none of them can really get into her eyes.
The ridicule hidden in the eyes that can only be tasted after aftertaste is more hurtful than a straightforward indifferent face, and the worst thing is those who have the courage to show love to her, she will use the gentlest tone and the most elegant wording to say the most ruthless words, which can be summed up in one meaning - the toad wants to eat swan meat, are you worthy?
Not only that, but she also has a great temperament, especially hates women who look no less than herself and surpass herself, which makes the maids around her dare not wear makeup, at most only light makeup, for fear that the master will misunderstand them and steal the limelight.
In addition to being mean to her own maids, she is also mean to other people's maids, Zhan Qianwu entered the palace for the first time when she was a child, and the palace maids around her were scolded by her for this.
It is not proper to open her mouth, and she is shameless when she closes her mouth, although Zhan Qianwu is young and has a clear brain, she knows that Liuli Zhisang, who is also a girl, scolds Huai, and is giving her a special identity as a "princess".
What kind of character is Zhan Qianwu?
Born with pride, the ancestor of carbon explosion!
She didn't want to do much trouble soon became impatient, and replied directly, so that Liuli couldn't find a chance to interject and almost fainted, if it weren't for the palace guards coming quickly, the palace maids on both sides would have been persuaded desperately, and maybe they could take a few more punches from her.
In this way, the two formed a bond, and after learning that his father only smiled slightly and had no intention of punishing after learning about it, Liuli was even more jealous of Zhan Qianwu, and the same was true for Zhan Qianwu.
With the passage of time, Zhan Qianwu gradually grew up, smoked, and became a big girl from a little girl, no less than Liuli's posture and the sassy and heroic posture of those who practice martial arts made her quickly become the focus of the wealthy family's discussions, and also made Liuli grit her teeth with hatred, and she stumbled openly and secretly at every opportunity, but Zhan Qianwu was too strong and domineering, and it was completely ineffective.
Only Zhan Qianwu knew that those stumbling blocks were not without effect, and her reputation had been ruined.
Just as her fame gradually spread, female tyrannosaurus, tomboy, crazy woman who is more rude than a reckless man, and a violent maniac full of muscles that no one dares to marry, one after another notoriety quietly spreads, and these notorieties are all inseparable from Liuli, either directly spread, or secretly instigated and instigated.
It is true that Zhan Qianwu is so strong that she doesn't let her eyebrows be bearded, but she is also a woman, what woman wants to be named with these notorieties on her head?
What's more, it's the time of the meeting!
She was angry, but she didn't show the slightest, she knew that if she was angry, she would lose, the more intense the reaction, the happier Liuli laughed, and she couldn't lose to this slut if she lost to anyone in this world.
She continued to go her own way, she did not accept or refute these notoriety, how the world wants to love and think about it, she doesn't need to bend to meet anyone, because these rumors give up on her is the loss of the renouncer, she just took this opportunity to find a Ruyi Langjun who is really suitable for herself.
Who knew that after a long time, her fame increased instead of decreasing, attracting the admiration of many good men, especially after Liuli's temperament was exposed, her admirers instantly exploded.
Helpless, like Liuli, she can't look down on any of those men, but this doesn't prevent her from showing off in front of Liuli, looking at Liuli's face that is constantly twitching with suppressed anger, she feels refreshed.
Later, You Wanli deliberately pointed her out to You Jinglian, but she was resolutely opposed, in addition to disliking You Jinglian very much, she was also very tired of getting married to Liuli, thinking about this kind of sister-in-law, she was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit.
Sneaking out of the house today, I don't want to be discovered and then announced into the air, and I came here to learn that I and Feng Zhiping were going to take a car to Changchun Palace to rest for a while, if I didn't know that Pang Xi was the old man in the palace would never mess around, she would definitely think that this was a bureau made by Liuli's fake holy decree, and the purpose was to see her jokes!
Even so, she still suspected that this matter had something to do with Liuli, otherwise, why did it have to be put in one car when it could be solved by two cars?
Came to Changchun Palace with apprehension, entered the side hall, and watched the palace maid and eunuch carefully carry Feng Zhiping into the room and hand it over to the imperial doctor, Zhan Qianwu breathed a sigh of relief, and followed the palace maid who led the way to look at his residence.
When she came to the door, she felt that there were people in the house, and after the palace maid bowed down and retreated, she stood outside the door and hesitated for a moment, finally cleaned up her mood, gritted her teeth and pushed the door open.
When the door opened, his expression had changed to a calm smile, like a little peacock that stood out from the crowd.
Then, the smile froze.
"You...?!"
Inside the house, the girl was dressed in brocade and dress, expressionless, and looked at each other coldly.
For a long time, he hooked the corners of his mouth proudly but sarcastically.
"Zhan Siwangnu, long time no see!"
The words "Zhan Four Princesses" bite very hard, just like Zhan Qianwu's mood.
