Chapter 350: Summoned
"One qiē according to the meaning of the king. Jiang Ang nodded.
"Xiao Linzi, you take the four adults to the Imperial Garden. Chief Wang instructed a little eunuch behind him.
"The four of you go over first and wait for the emperor to summon you. Jiang Ang said.
Huang Xiao and the four of them naturally didn't dare to say anything, and followed the little eunuch Xiao Linzi away.
Jiang Ang did not go to the Imperial Garden with Huang Xiao and the others, but left with the chief manager of the king.
"Master Jiang, I didn't expect that there was such a young kid among the guests this time, I don't know which disciple it is?"
"The disciple of the 'Poison God Valley', named Huang Xiao......"
Huang Xiao faintly heard the conversation between the two in his ears, but because the two sides were in opposite directions, he soon couldn't hear the sound.
He didn't expect Jiang Ang to seem to be very respectful to that Wang Steward, it seems that this Wang Steward should be the head of the eunuchs in the palace, that is, the person close to the emperor.
It is such a special relationship that no one dares to underestimate this big manager, even if it is a concubine in the harem, she has to please him.
However, Huang Xiao can also feel that this Wang is in charge of martial arts, and his skills are unfathomable, even if it is himself, he can faintly detect a trace of signs.
It seems that this Jiang Ang is very respectful to him, I am afraid that it is not only the identity of the general manager, but also his skills.
"Four adults, this is the Imperial Garden, you can rest in this pavilion. Xiao Linzi led Huang Xiao and the others to a pavilion and said.
Huang Xiao looked at the surrounding lake rockery, stone benches and stone towers, as well as all kinds of rare flowers and plants, and even in the distance, there were many white cranes in the woods and grasses from time to time.
"Then let's wait here!" Liu Sanfu said as he sat directly on the bench in the pavilion.
Huang Xiao could also see that this little eunuch didn't want to let himself and the others walk around the imperial garden at will, but not far away, there was a team of internal guards looking at this side, obviously they were guarding against the four of them.
"After walking for a while, I'm a little tired. Brother Han, don't you sit down and rest?" Huang Xiao smiled at Han Jing and said, before they called themselves Little Brother Huang, then it was not easy for them to call them elders.
"Yes, it's okay to sit and wait, this imperial garden is really wonderful, although it is made by people like opening from the sky, this scenery, this pavilion, wonderful. Wonderful, wonderful!" Han Jing sighed.
"Brother Han also has research on this garden landscaping?" Huang Xiao asked with a smile after hearing Han Jing's words.
"It's not about research, it's just about knowing a little bit of gossip. This landscaping pays attention to nature......" Han Jing couldn't help but say some of his experiences.
When Zhou Ding saw that no one took care of him, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "Isn't it just planting some flowers and plants, planting some trees, and building some pavilions, what you say is so mysterious and nonsense!"
"Nonsense? Do you think this imperial garden is so simple? There are a lot of formations hidden in it. If you trespass without permission, even if you don't have to worry about your life, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out for a while. Han Jing sneered.
Huang Xiao nodded, agreeing with Han Jing's statement. Although Huang Xiao is not very proficient in formations. But after all, he had studied it, so he was still more sensitive to the formation. There are indeed a lot of formations in this imperial garden, but these formations are not killing formations, most of them are some maze formations. Trapped.
For example, those cranes and sika deer are raised, and there are formations around it. With the existence of the formation, they will not step out of a certain range.
Like people, falling into such a formation, what you see in front of you may be a cliff, it may be a river, in short, it is blocking the way, and what you see above may be a cage, and the crane can fly at a low altitude, but it does not dare to fly too high. These are all illusory, but people can fall into them, let alone birds and beasts.
After Zhou Ding heard Han Jing's words, he just snorted coldly and didn't say anything more.
Just as Huang Xiao, Liu Sanfu, and Han Jing were chatting, they saw a woman dressed as a palace maid not far away, led by a guard, and came to the pavilion.
When Xiao Linzi saw this palace maid, she hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said, "What is the matter with Sister Tao'er coming here?"
"It turned out to be Xiao Linzi, didn't you follow the chief manager?Oh, it seems that you were sent on an errand by the chief manager, right?" The palace maid named Tao'er chuckled and said, "Okay, I won't make fun of you." ”
After speaking, Tao'er stood in front of the steps of the pavilion and glanced at the four people in the pavilion.
Huang Xiao and the four of them naturally discovered this palace maid a long time ago, but they didn't know her intention, could it be that the emperor sent them to let the four of them over?
"Dare to ask this son, are you Huang Xiao Huang Gongzi?" Tao'er fell on Huang Xiao's body at a glance and asked.
"It's down there. Huang Xiao was a little puzzled in his heart, and he didn't know why this woman specifically mentioned herself.
"Then would you like to ask the son to go with the slave?" said Tao'er.
Huang Xiao hesitated for a moment, he still didn't know who this palace maid was and who sent it.
"Lord Huang, since it was Sister Tao'er who called you over, you can go over for a while. Xiao Linzi said aloud on the side.
Since the little eunuch who brought him here also said so, Huang Xiao naturally nodded and said, "There is Miss Lao!"
Huang Xiao could see that this little eunuch seemed to be quite giving face to this palace maid. It stands to reason that this little eunuch is the person next to the chief eunuch, and ordinary palace maids and eunuchs may not dare to offend him. From this point of view, the person who is served by this palace maid is obviously not simple.
"What about us?" Seeing that Huang Xiao was called away, Zhou Ding hurriedly pointed to himself and asked.
"The slave and maid came over and just called Huang Gongzi, as for you, the slave and maid don't know. Tao'er chuckled and said, "Huang Gongzi, the slave will show you the way." ”
Seeing Huang Xiao leave with Tao'er, Zhou Ding's face was very ugly, what is this? Is it different?
"Little father-in-law, where did they go?" Zhou Ding asked Xiao Linzi on the side. Although Xiao Linzi is just a little eunuch, Zhou Ding is still quite polite.
"I don't know. Xiao Linzi shook his head and said.
Zhou Ding scolded in his heart, and said in his heart: "How can this be true, you are a little eunuch who still dares to play music with Lao Tzu, if it weren't for the palace, Lao Tzu would have split you with one palm." ”
Although Zhou Ding was depressed in his heart, he was helpless. He didn't know if the eunuch really didn't know, or if he knew and didn't tell himself.
"It's not strange, it's not strange, Little Brother Huang's skills are profound, and he is naturally different from us. When Liu San saw Zhou Ding's appearance, his heart was very happy, and he couldn't help but smile loudly at Han Jing beside him.
"Yes, this first summoning should be Little Brother Huang. Han Jing also nodded.
Zhou Ding glared at the two, he knew that the relationship between the two was good, and he couldn't get along with him, and now he was squeezing himself. It's just that he also knows that what these two people said is right, after all, Huang Xiao's skills are indeed not simple, and in addition, he has fought with Murong Xing, so it is not impossible to attract the attention of the emperor.
After all, the guest of the 'Six Doors' came over, and there was no clear rule on what form the emperor was to summon. Sometimes the emperor may summon everyone at once, and sometimes he may summon them one by one, in short, this qiē depends on the emperor's mood and arrangement.
Either way, the first to be summoned must have been taken seriously. Now that Huang Xiao has passed, he Zhou Ding is naturally very jealous in his heart.
Huang Xiao's thoughts in his heart were similar to those of Liu Sanfu and the others, he felt that it should be the emperor who summoned him, after all, didn't he and the others come over this time to meet the emperor?
"Huang Gongzi, please here!" Tao'er said.
"En?" Huang Xiao was a little surprised, because this direction was not the direction of the palace hall, if Huang Xiao didn't feel wrong, it also belonged to the imperial garden, and I am afraid it was close to the location of the harem.
"Could it be that the emperor is there?" Although Huang Xiao had some doubts in his heart, this thought quickly dissipated. In any case, he has never been to the palace, and he doesn't know where the emperor usually receives ministers, especially the guests of the 'six doors' like himself. Therefore, no matter where he is, Huang Xiao can only pass.
"Miss Tao'er, I don't know if this time was summoned by the emperor?" Huang Xiao felt that he was still in the imperial garden, but this imperial garden was very large, coupled with the countless formations around, Huang Xiao could no longer see Liu Sanfu and the others, nor could he see the pavilion, the scenery here was very different from the previous one, but one thing was absolutely right, this was still the imperial garden.
"Huang Gongzi, don't worry, when the meeting comes, you will know. Peach smiled slightly, and then continued to lead the way ahead.
Huang Xiao had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart and continue to move forward. He faintly felt in his heart that this past should not be the emperor's intention. It's just that who will summon him? Huang Xiao didn't think of it for a while, but, as Tao'er said, he will find out later.
"Did Childe see the pavilion on the top of the rockery?" Tao'er, who was leading the way in front, suddenly stopped, leaned sideways slightly, and pointed to a rockery not far away.
Huang Xiao looked along and saw that the rockery was huge, nearly ten zhang high, covering an area of several acres. It's also a commanding height in this imperial garden. There is also a combination of pavilions and corridors built on it, which is obviously for the palace concubines to enjoy here.
Seeing that Huang Xiao nodded, Tao'er continued: "Please go up again!"
"Go up?" Huang Xiao asked.
"Yes. Momo replied.
When Huang Xiao saw Tao'er's appearance, it seemed that he was going up alone. So he thanked him and walked towards the rockery.
"I don't know who's up there?" Huang Xiao thought secretly in his heart, he naturally knew that the person who summoned him must be on it.
Because he was thinking about this question in his heart, Huang Xiao's pace was much faster than usual. If it weren't for the fact that this was in the palace, such a distance, he would have been able to reach the top of the mountain in less than two breaths.
When Huang Xiao walked up to the top of the mountain along the somewhat winding stone steps of the rockery, he saw a woman in pink palace dress standing in the pavilion corridor. After Huang Xiao saw the woman's back, his face showed a sudden look.
"The humble 'Six Doors' first-class arrest Huang Xiao, see Her Royal Highness the Third Princess!" Huang Xiao did not hesitate, and hurriedly clenched his fists and said respectfully. (To be continued......)
