Not long after Gao Delun entered the Zichen Palace, he slowly walked out holding Fu Chen.
"Your Majesty, General Li, Mr. Yang has come to see you!"
"Your Majesty Yang Zhao, your Majesty Li Kuo obeys the decree!" They both clasped their fists and received His Majesty the Emperor's oral instructions.
"General Li, when you meet the Holy One later, you have to know in your mind what you should say and what you shouldn't say." Gao Delun read Li Longji's oral instructions and posted them over, giving his own advice.
This is the first time for this young gentleman to enter the inner palace to meet the Holy Spirit. He needs to be reminded of some etiquette that needs to be paid attention to.
"Thank you, Eunuch Gao, for reminding me!" The young man nodded to Gao Delun, and then he and Yang Zhao entered the Zichen Palace.
Zichen Hall is one of the three main halls of the Daming Palace and the largest palace in the inner court. As the emperor's resting palace, starting from His Majesty Gaozong, most of the saints of the Tang Dynasty reviewed memorials, lived and rested here. But now that the emperor has ascended the throne,
Later, the Xingqing Palace was renovated and upgraded to Xingqing Palace. This Xingqing Palace is the so-called Qianlong's House. Even His Majesty, who is a saint, has to be in awe of the things of gods and ghosts. In addition, Xingqing Palace is adjacent to the city
In order to facilitate His Majesty the Emperor to observe the people's sentiments, the saint built the main building of diligent government affairs to encourage himself. In this way, the saint would live in Xingqing Palace for most of the year, and the Daming Palace would be visited less frequently.
However, in the past few days, because the emperor wanted to reward the meritorious officers of Longyou, His Majesty the Emperor moved into the Daming Palace together with the imperial concubine. The Zichen Palace, which was rarely cleaned on weekdays, immediately took on a new look, and even the few stones in front of the Forbidden Palace
The beasts are all in full glory.
The Zichen Hall is divided into five compartments by nanmu. The middle compartment is the largest and is used for His Majesty the Emperor to temporarily convene important ministers to discuss matters. The two adjacent compartments are warm pavilions for His Majesty the Emperor to rest. The compartments on the farthest sides are
It was used by the personal guards to stay with them. Since His Majesty the Emperor did not live permanently in Zichen Hall, the side halls were not repaired and only the main hall was renovated.
Having just finished the morning court, the saint was quite tired and obviously did not want to meet Li Kuo and Li Kuo in the main pavilion.
Li Longji then ordered Gao Delun to take them directly to Dongnuan Pavilion.
Li Kuo closely followed the steps of his attendant Gao Delun, fearing that he would break a taboo if he made a mistake. In comparison, Yang Zhao seemed much more calm. It's not the boy's fault. The last time he entered the palace was a year ago.
During the polo match. Even though he was lucky enough to witness Long Yan at that time, the young man had never had the opportunity to enter the inner court harem. This time he received the imperial edict and went to the palace for pilgrimage, so he was naturally a little nervous.
"Your Majesty, General Li and Master Yang are here."
Gao Delun walked through a screen, knelt down and said respectfully.
"Oh, tell them to come in." Li Longji was obviously in a good mood and his tone was quite warm.
"Please, you two." Gao Delun nodded to the two people beside him and smiled with teeth.
"My ministers Yang Zhao and Li Kuo pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor and wish His Majesty long live."
When the two of them entered Dongnuan Pavilion, they both bowed down and chanted.
"The two beauties are equal." Li Longji nodded and waved lightly with one arm.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yang Zhao took the lead and stood up, bowed and said: "Your Majesty's complexion has become more and more rosy today. In my humble opinion, Your Majesty can kill a tiger with bare hands now!"
"Oh?" Li Longji was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "Well, Yang Zhao, you haven't learned anything else, but you can shoot horses smoothly. Well, but, I feel very comfortable when you shoot me.
"
"I am telling the truth, and there is not a single falsehood. Your Majesty, please tell me clearly." Yang Zhao's mouth seemed to be smeared with a layer of candied fruit, which sounded quite beneficial.
"Okay, I don't have time to listen to your words of praise. Today I have invited the master to come for my beloved concubine." Li Longji stroked his beard and looked at Li Kuo proudly.
Yang Zhao understood and nodded, and turned the young man with his elbow. Only then did Li Kuo understand that Yang Zhao wanted him to express his position, so he bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Li Kuo, is willing to die for your Majesty!"
"Alas!" Li Longji pushed his hand and said, "I don't need your service. As long as you are willing to serve my jade ring as a master with all your heart, I will reward you heavily."
"Wei Chen obeys your orders!"
"Yeah." Li Longji nodded and said: "I heard that General Li's archery skills are extremely accurate and he often shoots down enemy generals when the two armies are fighting. After hearing about it, Yuhuan pestered me to ask you to teach her archery. She is so
After three rounds of grinding and two grinding, I couldn't stand up to the general, so I agreed, General Li will have to put more thought into it."
"The imperial concubine is very intelligent and intelligent, and she will definitely learn it as soon as she learns it!" Li Kuo, however, did not dare to make excuses and replied quickly.
"Yeah." Li Longji nodded, feeling quite proud. It seems that this young man named Li Kuo is indeed a malleable talent. Not only is he good at both civil and military skills, he has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements, he also knows how to advance and retreat, and he is sensible and loyal to himself. That's it.
His talents are rare among the young generation in the capital, so he really has to make good use of them.
"Sanlang, I just heard someone say bad things about the slave family." Yang Yuhuan dragged a floor-length lake blue dress and walked out of the inner room surrounded by ladies, and sat down next to Li Longji calmly.
side.
He picked up a Gaochang grape, peeled it and put it into Li Longji's mouth. Yang Yuhuan repeated softly: "The slave family just heard someone complaining about the slave family, Sanlang..."
Being tickled by Yang Yuhuan's petulance, Li Longji smiled and said, "Whoever said bad things about our Yuhuan, I will make the decision for you."
Yang Yuhuan turned away her jade face and complained angrily: "Your Majesty is so bad. It was clear that she was the concubine that Your Majesty complained about just now, but now she has been completely dismissed."
"Oh?" Li Longji then remembered that what he said did have some hint of this meaning, so he followed suit and said: "Well, it's my fault. I voluntarily punished you with three drinks." After saying that, he picked up a few glasses of wine.
A jade cup was placed on the table, and a cup full of fine wine was poured into his mouth.
"Your Majesty, pay attention to the dragon's body!" Yang Yuhuan immediately grabbed Li Longji's right hand and said calmly: "The imperial doctor said, you can only drink one drink a day, and you can't be greedy."
"Okay, I'll do whatever Yuhuan says. One drink, I'll have a drink." Li Longji's face was full of smiles. When he spent time with Concubine Yang, he only felt that he was ten years younger.
"Your Majesty, you haven't said how to punish yourself yet." Yang Yuhuan didn't intend to let Li Longji get away with it like this, so he gently stroked Li Longji's cheek with his jade hand.
"Oh, my dear concubine, how should I be punished?"
"Haha." Yang Yuhuan turned around and looked at Li Kuo longingly and said, "Your Majesty will be punished for the archery competition with General Li. If you lose, I will not allow your Majesty to enter the house tonight."
Concubine Yang looked back and smiled, just like a peach blossom blooming, full of charm for a moment.
