Chapter 6: The Peony Palace

However, it was said that on that day, the crown prince Peony Zifeng drove to the gate of Yaotai Dan Palace, and he stepped down from the flower chariot, and then ordered Count Xuelu to take the carriage and horses for his own convenience, and then climbed the steps to enter the Dan Palace alone.

This Peony Palace, also referred to as Dan Palace, is a castle that resembles a flower. The latest curiosity is that it is constructed from materials such as thousand-year-old flower stalks, receptacles, and perianths. It's like a cluster of blooming flowers. The main hall of the palace is half golden yellow and half purple and black, and these two colors divide the palace with spires from top to bottom, but the structure is unified, making it appear both majestic and sacred, and mysterious and fantastic. Around the main hall in a semicircle is distributed layer by layer, one by one different colors, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple of various colored palaces, I think it is the residence of the concubines, princes, princes and grandchildren. This noble and elegant, romantic palace is the home of the emperor in today's flower fairy world.

Today's Kao supreme is the peony Yao Huang, and the queen is the extraordinary peony Wei Zi. King Yao Huanghua has taken over the throne from the hands of the first king for more than 100,000 years. He and his queen concubines had nine children. Queen Wei Zi gave birth to a boy and a girl, the boy was the eldest son, Prince Zifeng, and the daughter, the seventh princess of Ziyin. Kao has four other sons, namely Yellow Yi, Green Crown, Green Dragon, and Jade Tower, and the other three beautiful princesses are: Luo Hong, Pink Boy, and Ink Pool. These four princes and three princesses were all born to other concubines in the harem.

Prince Zifeng obeyed his father's order to marry Peony Yueying, the daughter of Peony Erqiao of the same clan, and gave birth to his son Peony Yong and daughter Peony Evening Makeup; He married Yang Jiu'er, the daughter of the drunken Yang Concubine of the same immortal family in Luoyang, and gave birth to twin sons, Peony Yu and Peony Jin; He is still known as the third prince and now lives alone in the Zen Heart Palace of Yaotai Flower Garden; the fourth to the seventh are princesses, and the other three have entered the heavenly court as a wife, and there are also those who have married into the fairy family of the world as a daughter-in-law, only the old seven peony Ziyin, who has lost the news, is still at home; the last two sons, Prince Yun Qinglong and Prince Yue Yuta, have not yet married. Although they have been canonized as princes, they always use the excuse that they are still young, have not yet made achievements, and do not want to start a family.

This peony royal family is constrained by the laws of the heavenly family, but whenever a girl is born in the royal family, the danzhixiang of the fetal belt will be sealed, and if the boy does not want to marry and fall in love with his own people when he becomes an adult, he will also be permanently dissolved from the danzhixiang in the body. Therefore, the crown prince of the peony royal family must marry the daughter of the same clan who is in the right family, so as to maintain the purity and nobility of the royal family's bloodline and inherit the mantle of Danzhixiang. As long as they are willing to give up the unique aristocratic symbol of the Peony royal family - Dan Zhixiang, the chosen person has enough family background, and the family is right, and the others are not too demanding.

When Prince Zifeng entered the gate of the Dan Palace, he went directly to the queen mother's bedroom. Because, the inside story of his outing to inquire about the matter this time is private, and it belongs to the private affairs of the Peony royal family, and it is inconvenient for him to go to the main hall to play his father's king. Prince Zifeng walked through the corridor and entered the queen's bedroom with a dreamy purple tone, and a palace maid had already opened the curtain and reported: "His Royal Highness the prince has arrived in ——!"

Everyone in the room turned their faces. When Prince Zifeng saw that his father was also here, he hurriedly approached to tidy up his clothes and salute to greet him, and asked his father and queen mother to be happy.

Today's Kao Peony Yao Huang, although he is not wearing the official court clothes of the previous dynasty, but the king, after all, is still inseparable from a red yellow. Look at him, wearing a silk robe embroidered with a rich peony pattern, a yellow crown of hair on his head, a gold silk embroidered belt around his waist, and a pair of black leather six-fold boots.

The queen peony Wei Zi, who is sitting on a few leans, is also home clothing today. She was dressed in a lilac cardigan dress, embroidered with a peony brocade pattern, covered with a jade-colored cigarette and gold silk light gauze shirt, lined with a moon-white water pink water lily short waist undergarment, slightly greased, silver hair with a chic flying cloud bun, an amethyst pendant magnolia hairpin inserted in the cloud temples, a circle of exquisite purple flowers hanging on the neck, the most conspicuous thing is that there is a purple peony flower blooming on the side of her right sideburns, so that the whole person is faintly fragrant, all over the body. Although the queen said that she was already an old woman, she was still handsome, graceful, and luxurious. The beauty of the Kao queen is naturally extraordinary.

When the queen saw her son's return, she beckoned him to come and sit beside her.

Prince Zifeng was a little restrained when he saw his father in his mother's harem, not as casual as he was when his mother was alone on weekdays. He walked over and stood beside his mother, but didn't dare to sit down, so he said: "Father, mother, and son-in-law returned from this visit in vain, and they have lived up to the trust and expectations of their father and queen mother." ”

The queen asked anxiously, "Aren't there any valuable clues?"

"No, Queen Mother. The most ridiculous thing was the stubborn stone, and now the whole thing was a mess, and he was surprised to hear the news. ”

Peony Kao stood up with a solemn face, and he paced the room with his hands behind his back. Shao leaned, he muttered and said, "Since there are no more useful clues, then our search method is inappropriate. It stands to reason that the seven princesses of Pingsuri are the most cautious in dealing with people, and their cultivation is also good. With her skills, the mortal tribulation is complete, and she should be able to deal with ordinary events. He did not go on, lest the queen would be more worried, and he only looked at his son.

Prince Zifeng understood, and said, "Father's analysis is right. There shouldn't be anything, I think Seventh Sister will be back soon. ”

Queen Wei Zi had already stood up anxiously, and it was still a little suspicious to hear their father and son say this. She said, "Is that going to happen? Otherwise, I'll go to the lower realm to find it." ”

Prince Zifeng hurriedly comforted: "Queen Mother, sit down quickly, why bother you to move to the mortal world in person for this little thing." You are a golden branch and jade body, in charge of the world's flowers and moons, harem trivial housekeeping, enough to worry about, isn't there still us. ”

The Peony Flower King also said: "Don't work for you to act personally, besides, seeing that the February Twelve Hundred Flowers Festival is coming, there are still many things that you need to prepare and decide, so don't think nonsense, I will make other arrangements for this matter." ”

The queen sat down slowly, with a deep groan, and thought about it. The son can't help the father, and the daughter can't help the mother. The children are all older, and she, as a mother, is really powerless to do many things. I think that she strongly opposed Yin'er's mortal tribulation at the beginning, didn't she still say that it was not counted? Seeing that their father and son were confident, she could only let them solve it. For the time being, she doesn't have to worry about this daughter's affairs, but she thinks of her grandson again. She patted her son's arm and asked, "Didn't you take Yong'er with you?" What about the others? Why didn't you bring them over to see me, didn't he want Grandmother Wang?"

"How could he not want you, you spoil him so much. Prince Zifeng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Yong'er, this kid needs to be strict with the rules, otherwise, maybe he will cause trouble in the future." Looking at the inquiring eyes of his father and mother, he gave a rough account of what had happened that day, and then said, "This child is too clever and very thoughtful, and he must be disciplined strictly in the future." I've had him go into the claustrophobic palace for three days to reflect. ”

The queen was a little distressed and said, "Isn't he still young, these three days are a bit too long?"

"Mother, you're just too spoiled by him. ”

"I've been very spoiled by you since I was a child, aren't you also very good?" Seeing Prince Zifeng's sneering appearance, the queen glared at him with a smile, and then stopped talking and didn't say anything deeper.

Peony Yong is a candidate for the position of the third generation of the Peony royal family, and strict discipline is also necessary, which goes without saying that everyone knows it very well.
