Chapter 179: Entering the Study
Xu Mo returned to the Hongfu Inn, and saw that Yue Linlang was looking forward to it, although there was shyness in his eyes, but he was more worried, and jumped to his feet and complained, "Where did you go last night?" ”
Xu Mo said with an innocent face, "It's not that I don't tell you, it's that the incident happened suddenly, and I ......"
Xu Mo stopped abruptly.
The worried look on Yue Linlang's face was even heavier, and said, "It happened suddenly, what's going on?"
"Oh, it's okay, it's just that my stomach hurts a little, and then I went to a pharmacy over there to grab some medicine, no, it's not to grab medicine, it's to see a doctor, the doctor said that I ate a little too greasy yesterday, just drink more water." ”
Xu Mo is not a fool, he knows what to say and what not to say.
"Okay, okay, in that case, let's go into the palace to see Master...... My master goes. ”
"Hmm!"
Xu Mo nodded.
At this moment, it was almost just after the early dynasty, Xu Mo and Yue Linlang walked to the Qinglong Gate, the square in front of the door gathered the carriage on the left, and the sedan chair on the right, because the imperial court system stipulates that only the emperor's relatives and relatives can enter the sedan chair on horseback, so the official sedan chair of the early dynasty was parked outside, Xu Mo came to the Qinglong Gate, and General Wang, who was in charge of guarding, greeted him with a smile and said, "Xu Shaoxia is going to enter the palace, please." ”
He has been guarding for eight years, he understands a truth, to please the red people around the emperor is to please the emperor, and in his eyes, Xu Mo is this kind of red person.
But he didn't know that Xu Mo was not only not a celebrity beside Xiao Chenggang, but also racked his brains to deal with him, of course, the premise was fake.
"Hmm. Xu Mo nodded with his hands behind his back and said, "The one behind is the apprentice of Ma Zhenren of Rotten Sword Mountain, I remember that the emperor said last time that as long as it is a person from Rotten Sword Mountain, he can enter and leave the palace at will, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" General Wang hurriedly replied, "Miss Xu Shaoxia, please come in." ”
Entering from the Qinglong Gate, it is the palace area in the real sense, Yue Linlang's two pairs of eyes refused to stop rolling for a moment, eager to record every scenery, when she was in Rotten Sword Mountain before, she felt that the building group and area of Rotten Sword Mountain were large, but compared with the Imperial Palace, it was really like Yunyuan.
Even if it is the second time Xu Mo came, he could still walk in front and lead the way after passing the Qinglongmen for the first time, but after turning a few big bends and small bends, he immediately couldn't distinguish the direction and could only wander in place, Yue Linlang said bitterly, "Hey, didn't you say that you have been here, why can't you find a place yet." ”
"I ......" Xu Mo was speechless, to put it in his heart, he was very helpless about his road idiot symptoms, scratched his head and said, "There are too many roads in the palace, it's normal to not find it, you wait for me to find someone to ask." ”
"Ask, ask, follow you, I'm afraid that something will happen while walking. Yue Linlang continued to complain.
"Forehead......" Xu Mo didn't know exactly where he was at the moment, according to the palace, there should be forbidden troops patrolling everywhere, why was there no one here, but it seemed deserted. ”
He and Yue Linlang didn't dare to go any further, stopped in place, waited quietly for someone to pass by, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally after about half a pillar of incense, a young little eunuch appeared, Xu Mo ran up and said straight to the point, "Dare to ask what place this is." ”
It was also at this time that Xu Mo found that he was a little different from other eunuchs, especially unlike Hua Zhenchun, who revealed a disgusting disgusting meaning inside and out, and looked at him
In the process of the little eunuch, the little eunuch's eyes were not idle, and he looked around very dexterously to make sure that there were no outsiders, and immediately lost his temper and said, "Who are you and what are you doing here." ”
The sneakiness of the little eunuch in front of him aroused Xu Mo's curiosity, but at present, he should still ask the way clearly, the others are not important, no matter if he is here to steal things or what he does, just don't hinder it, so Xu Mo Gujing Bubo said, "I just came to the palace and couldn't recognize the road for a long time, and I was confused as I walked, so I wanted to ask you where the Senxuan Yuan is and what kind of place it is." ”
The little eunuch secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Senxuanyuan, I haven't heard of it, but I can tell you that this is the Cold Palace." ”
"Cold ...... Cold Palace!"
"Hey. ”
The little eunuch left as soon as his voice fell, without the meaning of saying more.
Yue Linlang pouted and said, "Look at the road you led, they were all brought to the Cold Palace, but what kind of place is the Cold Palace, is it particularly cold inside, no wonder the surrounding environment is very bleak." ”
Xu Mo said helplessly, "It's not cold, it's just lonely, don't talk about these useless, let's quickly find the way to the Senxuan Academy." ”
Before, Xu Mo was stopped by General Wang at the Qinglong Gate and was not allowed to enter, he was greeted with a sword, and then Ma Ruixin came looking for a sword.
Now, he thought that if he couldn't figure out the way, he would do it again.
"Follow the little eunuch first, leave the cold palace, and then say, when you leave here, you should meet the patrolling forbidden army, just ask them when the time comes. Xu Mo followed as he spoke, Yue Linlang was really speechless, his head drooped, and he was slightly decadent.
The two followed the little eunuch out of the area of the cold palace, and finally met the people in the palace, a group of gorgeously dressed and beautifully dressed girls, led by an old woman, coming head-on, Xu Mo of course would not let go of the opportunity, stepped forward and said, "Hello, in the lower Xu Mo, because I didn't know the way when I first arrived at the palace, I want to ask how to go to the Senxuanyuan, which is the Shenxuanyuan where two real people live." ”
The old lady set up her vigilance and said, "Who are you? ”
"No, no, no. ”
Xu Mo said with three non-denials, "That's the case, His Majesty the Emperor invited Ma Zhenren from Rotten Sword Mountain and Zheng Zhenren from Maoshan to the palace to discuss important matters, and now I live in the Senxuan Courtyard, I came with them, but I am not familiar with the route in the palace, so I got lost, how can I be a thief, the Great Chu Palace is so tightly guarded inside and out, even if I am a thief, I can't break in." ”
The old lady was still staring at Xu Mo suspiciously, the palace was tightly guarded, but no matter how tight it was, it was inevitable that there would be fish that slipped through the net, noticing Yue Linlang behind Xu Mo, the old lady raised her eyebrows and said, "What about her? Who is she?"
"I am a disciple of Ma Zhenren. Before Xu Mo could speak, Yue Linlang answered on his own.
The old lady is the head of the harem, often accompanied by the queen to take care of the queen's daily life, as well as the training of the slaves and maids in the palace and the selection of show girls, she is going to take the show girls to report at the moment, although she is not involved in political affairs in the harem, but she is close to the queen, and she can hear a lot of wind and grass in the temple, and there seems to be some real people entering the palace recently.
Xu Mo complained in his heart about this old guy, General Wang, who guards the Qinglong Gate, has to be respectful when he sees me, you have to be fucking twittering to suspect the truth, if I were a thief, I would have killed you with a knife, and I would have let you live until now
The old lady seemed to be observing Xu Mo with all the eyesight in her life, eager to see him inside and out, and finally considered that she would have to take the show girls to report for duty, and the time could not be delayed, so she said, "Look at you and don't look like a bad person, forget it, tell you, from this road all the way to the direction of my finger, about 800 steps away, and then turn left to Chunyuan Lake and then pass through the emperor's Qianyuan Zhai to reach the Senxuan Temple."
"Well, what do you mean I'm not like a bad person, I'm not a bad person in the first place. ”
For the sake of her informing the road situation, Xu Mo just repeated this sentence in her heart and did not say it.
Say some polite words against the old lady to thank you, Xu Mo walked in the direction she said, and after some distance, you will know that although the old lady does not give a pleasant impression on the surface, she speaks honestly, and she can see the so-called emperor's study far away from Chunyuan Lake, Qianyuanzhai, as long as he can reach Qianyuanzhai, he can return to Shenxuanyuan with a familiar road.
After all, accompanied by Hua Zhenchun, he once walked the road from Shenxuanyuan to Qianyuanzhai.
After Qianyuan Zhai, Yue Linlang's tired chest was pressed against his back, he really didn't expect the palace to be so big, it was as big as ten rotten sword mountains, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Such a big palace, it should take a long time to walk from the place where the emperor lives to the place where he eats, and he must not be tired to death, and he feels troublesome to eat, I really can't figure it out." ”
Xu Mo replied, "Of course we can't figure out their way of life, but like the emperor, the crown princess, and those who travel will have a special sedan chair, in their words, they are public opinion, and they are tired, and they don't exist at all." ”
"Stop, stop, the more you say, the more tired I feel, let's hurry up and go to the Senxuan Temple, I want to sleep." ”
"Okay, let's go. ”
They were walking on the avenue outside Qianyuanzhai, separated from Qianyuanzhai by a wide willow forest and rockery, and after taking a few steps, Xu Mo suddenly stopped as if he was stunned, and Yue Linlang hit him on the back.
Yue Linlang stomped her feet and complained, "What are you doing, why did you stop suddenly!"
Xu Mo lowered his voice and said, "I want to go into Qianyuanzhai to have a look." ”
"Go to Qianyuanzhai?"
"Yes!"
Xu Mo thought that since Xiao Chenggang was an impostor, he should be able to find some clues in the Qianyuan Zhai where he often stayed, maybe he could know his true identity, and he could know what his purpose was in pretending to be the emperor, of course, Xu Mo would not tell Yue Linlang the true situation, just casually prevaricated a few words, and then launched the Imperial Land Jue to go in the direction of Qianyuan Zhai.
When he came to Qianyuanzhai, Xu Mo did not poke his head out quickly, but listened to the movement above through a very thin layer of soil, and only broke through the ground after making sure that there was no one in Qianyuanzhai.
Looking around, the furnishings in the room are the same as the ones he saw when he came yesterday, on the left side of the bookcase are stacks of bamboo slips and books, on the right side are pen holders and inkstones, today, Xu Mo noticed that there is also a beautifully made white jade lion head ornament on the bookcase.
The white jade lion's head had always been there, but he only found it today.
"The lion's head is not badly carved, but I'm not interested in you. ”
Xu Mo patted the lion's head, went around to the bookcase and began to rummage frantically inch by inch, Xu Mo is now determined: no matter what his true identity is, he will be exposed, poked to death.
