Xuande Hall is an inner hall. If you want to leave the palace, just go outside.
But the young eunuch took Li Xia to the west for a while, looked around for a while as if he was lost, and then stopped.
Lin'an Palace is not big at all. Even Empress Dowager Yang has no place to live. If she moves out and builds her own mansion, there is definitely no chance of getting lost.
"So that Li County Lieutenant will know that our Sun An is sending one of our own to Concubine Yan's palace."
"Master Sun is so polite."
"Wait a moment, Concubine Yan has something to tell you."
After waiting for a while, I saw a group of eunuchs and palace maids coming with a guard of honor. Among them were several female captains wearing Cuju uniforms. They were obviously on their way to Jucheng.
The gorgeous sedan slowly descended, and a palace maid called Sun An to come forward, said a few words, and called Li Xia to come forward.
Li Xia walked to the sedan, gave a salute, and said, "I've seen Concubine Yan."
The sedan curtain was only raised a little, so Li Xia couldn't see inside, but he could be seen inside.
Concubine Yan's voice was charming and could be heard in one's bones, but she spoke very directly.
"I want to watch Guan's Cuju. Remember a few words, and remember them closely."
"yes."
"From now on, you are mine, and you must consider everything for me. Hide that secret first, and wait until I let you reveal it, then you reveal it. The time has not come yet, so you might as well leave Lin'an for a while."
"clear."
"The official family will not trust you, but they will promote you. Because you are born to oppose the loyal king. If the official family can give birth to a prince, in terms of position, age, and talent, you can be the mainstay of the true prince line.
, I will ensure your success within ten or twenty years."
"clear."
"But if there is no prince, do you know what to do?"
Li Xia whispered: "For example, if Wu Qian wants his father to come forward to testify, he must first instigate all officials to make Yan Guifei the queen. Otherwise, my father and son will never come forward. This means that Yan Guifei comes first in everything."
"You're fine."
After a while, Concubine Yan said again: "The jade pendant you stole from the Huang family is in my hand, so be it, I will give you another one, take it..."
A jade hand poked out from the sedan curtain. It was delicate, soft, smooth and white, and the movement of holding the jade pendant was also very elegant.
Li Xia took the jade pendant.
It is as green as emerald feathers, even in color, and engraved with a luan and phoenix. The carving is exquisite and extraordinary, and you can tell it is valuable at a glance.
I got Wenrun, she gave it as a last-minute gift.
"From now on, you will only wear this piece of jade, do you understand?"
Li Xia said: "I understand."
"Although you are called 'Feiyu', you can be said to be a flawless beauty. From now on..."
Suddenly, there was a clear female voice in the sedan: "I just want to tell you a few words. How long has it been? Come on, I have to go play Cuju."
"Okay, okay... get up the sedan."
Li Xia stepped away and could still faintly hear the conversation in the sedan.
"You're not afraid that I'll tell daddy."
"Just say it, it doesn't matter..."
After a few steps, the bone-chilling voice gradually became less audible.
Li Xia went outside the palace.
Behind him, the honor guard headed towards Jucheng. In the sedan, in addition to Concubine Yan, there was also Princess Ruiguo, the only daughter of the official family.
Princess Rui was born to Concubine Jia Guifei. After Concubine Jia Guifei passed away, the official family gave her to Concubine Yan to raise her as a sign of favor.
The eunuch carrying the sedan did not feel that the sedan was heavy, but the weight of the two women in the sedan in the heart of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty was not necessarily much lighter than that of the country...
After leaving the palace, Li Xia looked up at the blue sky... and didn't feel much.
It is just another step taken on the road of life.
Although Zhao Yunqi's words are casual, they are vaguely in line with his mentality. Feiyu has always known that he still has many shortcomings and is always making up for himself.
At least in terms of his state of mind, he has transformed from a chess piece into the state of mind of a chess learner.
Before returning to the north, he might have assassinated King Rong if this happened, but now, he has learned to use more means to protect himself.
Sometimes, dealing with things is very simple, even just one sentence is needed.
Turning around, Li Xia saw Wang Geng again, and Feng Zhong was waiting outside the palace in a carriage.
"Li County Lieutenant, Prime Minister Ding wants to see you and orders the little men to take you to the Privy Council..."
Ding Daquan naturally knew that Li Xia had become an official, and it was he who had managed the official position.
This title is obviously a reminder.
Li Xia also did not shy away from meeting Ding Daquan.
Yan Martin was convinced that he had been completely branded as a traitor.
After all, it was inconvenient for Dong Songchen to give orders to Concubine Yan in many specific minor matters, so Ding Daquan had to handle them.
But the difference from before is that Li Xia is no longer Ding Daquan's lackey; no matter how low his official position is, he is just like Ding Daquan, and he is also a member of Concubine Yan's outer court.
Power is not ranked by surname...
Sure enough, during this meeting, Ding Daquan treated Li Xia less casually.
"It's worth my efforts to protect you. I have been planning an official position for you recently. You can get it at any time."
"Xie Dingxiang."
Ding Daquan's eyes fell on the jade pendant around Li Xia's waist, and he stroked his beard and said, "I will do my best for the establishment of the queen after I have settled down."
Li Xia smiled politely and said: "This is natural, but the palace told me that this matter also needs the support of civilian officials. Just relying on arrogance is not enough. Righteousness is also important.
."
For a moment, Ding Daquan's blue face seemed to be darkened.
When it comes to Qi nourishing skills, he is far inferior to Cheng Yuanfeng.
Li Xia didn't say any more, waved his hand and said, "Of course, it's too early to talk about this now, let's wait for the opportunity."
The atmosphere seemed to have solidified.
Finally, Ding Daquan smiled, waved away Li Xia's aura that was comparable to that of Zai Zhi, and took over the conversation between the two again.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. The day after tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. You can go back home for dinner."
The word "return to the house" makes it seem as if Li Xia is already the grandson-in-law of his Ding family.
Li Xia said: "I plan to leave for my post tomorrow. I wonder if the regulations can be completed today?"
When the confidants around Ding Daquan heard this, their expressions changed, and they could no longer bear it.
Li Xia also knew that he could not be too disrespectful to Ding, so he added another sentence and explained: "It would be better for me to leave early, so as not to conflict with anyone again and miss the important event of Ding paying homage to the prime minister."
"You kid, you are so considerate..."
Next to him, Ding Daquan didn't bother to say any more and ordered someone to take Li Xia to do it.
Until he saw this young man leaving the office, his blue face finally turned gloomy.
"Prime Minister Ding." A confidant came forward and said in a low voice: "This kid is too ignorant. I haven't seen anyone dare to be so arrogant in front of Prime Minister Ding in many years."
Ding Daquan suddenly smiled, as if he was very generous.
"Young people are not tempered yet, but they still have spirit. Let's wait until they have stabilized their position before mentioning..."
The small house on Lampwick Lane.
Han Chengxu squinted his old eyes and drew on the paper with a pen, planning the route to the north.
He always felt that if Li Xia could bring them back from the north, it would not be more difficult for them to defect to the north.
As a survivor of the Jin Kingdom, he has never gained a sense of recognition even after staying in the Song Dynasty for nearly twenty years.
It’s not that Jiangnan is bad, but his roots are in the Central Plains.
This time Li Xia was wanted, Han Chengxu felt happy that "this was forced by Zhao Song, so he will betray him."
Suddenly, I heard a movement outside the door.
I heard Han Qiaoer cheering and seemed to be calling "Brother Li".
After that, the whole courtyard was filled with only Liu Jinsuo's loud voice, covering up all other people's voices.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"Young Master, do you know? Just now, my brother's appointment has come down, and Wu Xinjun is preparing to be general. This is too stingy! He is leaving today, and Liu Niang and I haven't got married yet, just because I'm worried about you.
The delay is annoying me to death..."
"Haha, you have indeed become a county captain! Traitors are different, they can become civil servants without any title. But the house still has five days of rent left to pay..."
Han Chengxu didn't have time to put down his brush, stood up and walked outside the house.
The moment he saw Li Xia walking through the door majestically, he felt a complex emotion that was hard to describe.
The gray beard was a little messy by the breeze, and his old eyes were also full of mess.
Han Chengxu has always thought that he is the person who knows Li Xia's abilities best.
The young man's wisdom, courage, and ambition are far beyond ordinary people... He sometimes wonders if he thinks too highly of Li Xia.
At this moment, he realized that Li Xia was more capable than he thought.
The prime minister of the current dynasty could do nothing to him, and even the dignified king could do nothing to him?
The brush fell to the ground.
Han Chengxu stepped forward and murmured: "The young man is back... It'll be good if he's back..."
"Hahaha!" Liu Jinsuo laughed and said, "Mr. Han, look at you, you are shocked. What's so strange about this? I told you that nothing would happen to him. I already knew it."
"You know nothing, you don't understand anything." Lin Zi cursed.
In the midst of the hilarity, Li Xia smiled and suddenly turned around and saw Gao Mingyue.
Seeing the deep concern in her eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and a thought suddenly came to his subconscious.
"If I marry this Bai girl in the future, I will also want to take a concubine. It is rare in this era..."
In just a flash, Li Xia dismissed this nonsense.
We are going to a dangerous place, and we are still growing, so what are we thinking about?
Don't linger in your mind, don't linger in your mind.
"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, but we have to leave. In this way, we will celebrate the festival in advance and have a good time shopping in Lin'an City tonight, shopping for things, and eating at Fengle Building."
Everyone did not expect that when Li Xia came back, he would say this instead of saying anything else.
"What's there to see in Lin'an City?" Liu Jinsuo said, disgusting with the scenery, "It's crowded and expensive."
"Shut up, there's nothing wrong with going to Fengle Building to eat..."
