Subject to the emperor

The palace structure of the Taifeng Dynasty was divided into the outer court and the harem.There are three halls of Taihe, Zhonghe, and Baohe in the Outer Dynasty. Among them, Taihe is the place where the court meeting is held, and it is the tallest and most glorious.At the same time, matters such as the emperor's enthronement, wedding, canonization, appointment, and expedition were all held here.Behind the Hall of Supreme Harmony is the Imperial Study Room, supplemented by the Wenhua Hall and the Wuying Hall on both sides, and the House of Internal Affairs behind it.

To the east of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there are harems and imperial gardens where the concubines live.To the west are the small imperial garden, the sacrificial place, the residence of the princess and the prince, as well as the East Palace and the Hall of Compassion and Ning where the Empress Dowager resides.

The entire palace is surrounded by two layers of walls inside and outside.In the middle of the south is Danfeng Gate, which is the main gate.The east and west are respectively Wangxian Gate and Jianfu Gate.

In the middle of the north is Xuanwu Gate, and in the east and west are Yinhan Gate and Qingxiao Gate.

To the east is Zuoyintai Gate.

The west, north and south are Youyintai Gate and Jiuxian Gate respectively.

There are Jiacheng parallel to the city wall on the east, west and north sides, and in the middle of the north side is Chongxuanmen, facing Xuanwumen.

The imperial army was stationed on the east and west sides of the palace city, and the commanding organ of the imperial army, Beiya, was set up in the north gate and the city.

And Danfeng Gate is facing the Hall of Supreme Harmony!

On the first day of the eighth month of the fifth year of Ziyang, all ranks were ordered, and the royal family and mistress were ordered by the Queen Mother to enter the palace to attend the blessing ceremony!

The Dharma meeting was held in the Baohua Hall of the harem, and the Empress Dowager invited the Abbot Xiuyuan of Puji Temple for the Dharma meeting.

The Dharma meeting lasted for two hours, during which Wu Yiye was ordered to make medicinal meals and fast food for Mrs. Gaoming and Zen Master!

While everyone was eating, Wu Yiye found Abbot Xiuyuan.

"I have seen the abbot!"

"The benefactor is polite! The purpose of the benefactor Wu's coming here to find the old monk is already known to me, but I am sorry that I can't say more. The cause and effect have been accomplished, and the benefactor has no other choice but to move forward step by step!"

"May I ask what cause and effect the abbot said? You asked Ai Qi to look for you, but why?"

"The old monk just said that you can't say too much. As for the cause and effect, it is nothing more than love!"

"Affection?"

"That's right, you came because of love, and you will leave because of love! I hope the benefactor will take care of you, and I will leave!"

Come because of love, go because of love.What does it mean?Will he still leave?What about Feng Haoxuan?Could it be that he has no chance to be with Feng Haoxuan in his whole life?

Affection?Who is it?

After leaving the Baohua Hall with doubts, Wu Yiye led the maids into the Hall of Compassion and Ning with the refreshments they had prepared.Many imperial orders in the palace were chatting and laughing with the queen mother, among them the noble concubine Nangong Feifei and Liu concubine Liu Piaopiao were also there.

It was just or because of the events of the previous few nights that Concubine Liu looked listless, with pensive thoughts on her brows.

And Nangong Feifei was extremely thin, looking much sicker than half a year ago.The most important thing is that Wu Yiye is almost sure that the poisoner is Nangong Feifei.In the past few days, Wu Yiye often went in and out of the imperial dining room to chat, and learned that Nangong Feifei had been cooking ginseng soup for Feng Haoxuan every day for two years, and it was only recently that he stopped this habit.

In this way, I can understand why Feng Haoye went to find Nan Gongyu directly that day, and why Feng Haoxuan asked him not to say anything about it.It's just because they already knew who poisoned them, and they were worried about the person behind it, Nangong Siquan!

Thinking of Nangong Siquan, at this hour, it's time for them to enter the city!

After talking for a long time, the Empress Dowager was already tired, because she had to wait for the Degui Concubine who returned to the palace today to come to see the ceremony, otherwise, the Empress Dowager would have sent all the orders to rest.

Another half an hour later, only the father-in-law came outside the door to report that Concubine Degui and King Qi had arrived outside the Hall of Compassion and Peace, waiting to say hello and present!

Speaking of Concubine Degui and King Qi really had a good relationship, didn't they do a lot of good deeds?Not only did he live in the temple for two years to pray for the country, but he also helped many disaster victims along the way.Otherwise, how could there be so many imperial concubines waiting here with only one noble concubine.

Not long after, I saw a woman in her early thirties wearing a green shirt and a yellow skirt without too many hairpins entering the hall with a smile on her head. Such a plain attire really looked like someone who was eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha.Beside the woman was a young man of about twenty, who looked neither humble nor overbearing.

"My sister has met the queen mother's sister!"

"Qi'er has met her mother, and her mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

Concubine Degui and Feng Haoqi bowed down to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager ordered Nurse Ying, who was beside her, to step up and help Concubine Degui up, and they helped her to sit beside the Empress Dowager on the empty sable bed Carved chair.Feng Haoqi also stepped forward and sat down beside Concubine Degui.His gaze was falling on Wu Yiye who was opposite him.

"The noble concubine has been away from the palace for two years to pray for Dafeng. This time, she has been back and forth in the palace for several days. It's really hard work. It's time to have a good rest. Why did you come to see Ai's family in such a hurry!"

"What's the matter with the Queen Mother, praying for Dafeng should be the best we women who enjoy wealth should do, and paying respects to the Queen Mother's sister is also the sister's duty, the two are not in conflict! And Qi'er kept saying Looking at Empress Dowager Jin An, I said early on that I would be relieved to see Empress Dowager Ankang first."

"Yes, mother, the emperor bought a lucky bag at Lingtai Temple. For the past two years, he has chanted scriptures for this blessing bag every day. The emperor has not been able to fulfill his filial piety in front of his mother in the past two years. I hope this peace talisman can replace the emperor Your filial piety, I wish your mother a happy life and a healthy life!"

While talking, he handed the amulet to the queen mother, who held it with great joy, looked left and right, and then handed it to Nanny Ying, applauding to keep it.

Feng Haoqi's action really won the praise of the imperial clan and others in the palace, they couldn't help but praise King Qi's filial piety, even in the poor Lingtai Temple, he still didn't forget the queen mother in the palace.He also praised the virtuous and benevolent concubine Degui for teaching King Qi to be so filial.

The Empress Dowager kept silent and let them praise her, so that she could live up to the good reputation that the Empress Dowager had earned through her long efforts.

"Qi'er really has a heart. I haven't seen her taller, more handsome and thinner in two years. I'm sorry for you!"

"Queen, the emperor is not bitter, the emperor is stupid and unable to help the emperor in the court, and the only thing I can do is sincerely pray for blessings and do my best!"

Feng Haoqi's words sounded a sense of loss and melancholy, and soon someone came out to speak for him.

"Yeah, King Qi is 20 years old in a blink of an eye, and the emperor has already ruled the world when he was 16 years old. Presumably King Qi will be entrusted with important tasks when he comes back this time, and he will not worry about not being able to fulfill his ambitions by then!"

The one who spoke was Princess Minjun, who had a good relationship with Concubine Degui, and her husband, Prince Minjun, was also a concubine, the younger brother of the late emperor.

As soon as this remark came out, many people echoed it, and Concubine Degui also showed a smile on her face at the right time: "When the child grows up, he should join the court, so as to share some burdens for his imperial brother. Princess Duan still remembers the late emperor He often sleeps with King Duan and discusses political affairs. Now that the emperor loves his brothers, he exhausts himself! This sudden sudden illness makes me very worried!"

What the Concubine Gui said is well-founded, she not only used the late Emperor and the youngest King Duan as examples, but also worried that the Emperor would be too tired, it would be difficult not to be impressed by her 'sincerity' .

Anyone with a discerning eye can hear his real intention, that is to let Feng Haoqi join the court to gain real power, instead of being an idle prince for a long time! .
