On the other side, inside Zheng Xiang's carriage, which accelerated and soon passed Qi Bao'er, what Qi Bao'er didn't see was that there was actually a person sitting on the main seat inside.
If Qi Baoer hadn't used his spiritual consciousness to "peep" because he didn't want to cause trouble, he would have discovered that, hey, he is still an acquaintance.
After entering the imperial court as an official, you enter the palace through the east gate. Today is the imperial court, and the number of people entering the palace early in the morning is terrifying. The place where the carriages are parked is blocked and it is difficult to move. All the officials got off the carriages early and walked into the palace.
.
It’s not that there are no sedan chariots, but only officials with grades three or above are eligible to ride on them. Today, in Beijing, all officials with grades above five are required to go to court. The distribution of officials is like a pyramid. The lower the grade, the more people there are.
On the way to Jinluan Palace, there are people everywhere.
Qi Bao'er was riding in a sedan chair, with only Twelve and Little Coconut beside him.
The carriages took the broadest main road, so over time, a tacit understanding was formed. Officials walking to court would take the initiative to avoid the main road and take the side corridors or other lanes, and take the main road.
Going to Jinluan Hall has become another kind of status symbol.
Quite coincidentally, the front of Qi Bao'er's sedan chair was exactly where she would go to the peak from now on, Lord Shang Chengfeng, Minister of the Ministry of War.
In fact, it was no coincidence that Princess Anle would take over the vacant position of Minister of War. As Minister of War, he got the news earlier than others. He even knew about this appointment.
His knowledge of Princess Anle is more detailed than the rumors outside; naturally he will not secretly investigate Princess Anle. This is a taboo for the emperor. As a trusted minister around the emperor, naturally
I wouldn't make such a low-level mistake.
But the emperor often mentioned Princess Anle. Every time the princess was mentioned in the emperor's mouth, she was always so unsympathetic to her age and her magical powers.
He didn't believe it at first, it was too ridiculous.
Although there are gods and men in this world, they are only slightly stronger than ordinary people. The word "gods" is just an exaggerated honorific for them.
Later, after hearing too much, Master Shang became numb. Unknowingly, it was as if he had been brainwashed, and he accepted in his heart that Princess Anle was so powerful that no one could rival her.
No, knowing that Minister Qi would go to court together today, and taking advantage of his shame, he just squeezed away the other officials who were also curious and wanted to wait and see first, and waited at Xuanwu Gate [the first door after entering from the east side]
At the corner of the door, when Qi Shilang's sedan carriage approached, he pretended to be just one step ahead of her.
Hiss~
We can't see his other abilities for the time being, but for his ability to conquer a country and a city, and his unparalleled beauty, I think he is unrivaled by anyone in this world.
Forgive him for being a military general and not having read a few books. He really can't think of any other words of praise.
So beautiful, so beautiful that as an old man, he lost his consciousness for a long time just looking at it.
He glanced at the people around him with his peripheral vision. Fortunately, the officials in front had to save their face and not look back in a dishonorable manner. The attendants and the palace people carrying the sedan chair next to him did not dare to look up. Otherwise, he was really worried about what would happen today.
There will be road blockage incidents in the morning.
The traffic jam did not occur, but when the two of them entered the "Wenyisuo" one after another, they still achieved the achievement of complete silence.
Mr. Shang was silently rejoicing in his heart. He was glad that "Wen Yisuo" was a resting place in front of the imperial court that could only be entered by officials of the third rank and above. Those who could enter were basically people who were already quite old and experienced. Otherwise, otherwise
if···
Indeed, as he expected, the officials inside were not absent-minded for long, and they were all smart. There was no such thing as looking at the newcomers with scrutinizing eyes or staring at them with curious eyes.
Instead, it was as if nothing had happened. What I was doing just now was what I was doing now.
The tea drinkers continued to drink tea, and we continued to chat. The ones who sat in a daze were even more dazed this time.
Mr. Shang had already started talking to Qi Bao'er after getting off the sedan chair. Although they just greeted each other and came in together, they were considered familiar as they were all strangers.
No matter how capable she is, she is still a fourteen-year-old girl. Master Shang, who is already in his fifties and has just become Grandpa Zeng, unconsciously feels pity for her.
Besides, people always have a favorable impression of beautiful things.
Lord Shang slowed down and whispered, "Just sit next to me and stay with me when you go to court."
After thinking about it, I felt that the little girl might be really capable, but after all, she was still young, so I was worried that she might be lacking in human sophistication.
So he reminded again: "If someone comes to you and talks nonsense, you should fight back. We in the Ministry of War will not allow others to bully them casually."
Normally, no one should dare to provoke people from their military department, but we still have to be just in case.
Maybe there is someone out there who thinks the little girl is easy to bully because she is so young?
Shang Chengfeng has a well-known characteristic: he protects his shortcomings, the kind of person who helps others but not others.
Fortunately, he has strong restraint on his own people. If any of his own people make a mistake, he will deal with it first; otherwise, he would have been impeached for his "problem".
Qi Bao'er's eyes flashed slightly, receiving the kindness of the Minister, and nodded very obediently, "Thank you, sir."
Then he winked playfully and said, "Xiaguan is thick-skinned. Today, Xiaguan will follow you."
Oh my god, he has such an old heart.
It would be great if this was his granddaughter.
After thinking about his own appearance and that of his wife, well, they couldn't give birth to such a handsome and cute granddaughter.
Suddenly lost.
Shang Chengfeng suppressed the unreasonable melancholy in his heart and led Qi Bao'er to his seat. Before sitting down, he pointed to the position above his head and said, "Sit."
After Qi Baoer thanked him, she waited for Shang Chengfeng to sit down before she followed suit.
Although the people around him were doing their own things, their attention was always focused on these two.
Not to mention that the appearance of Qi Shilang was beyond their imagination, but also because he was appointed as the Minister of War as soon as he returned to Beijing, it was impossible for everyone to ignore her and the relationship between the Minister of War and her.
get along.
Take a look to see if the two get along well with each other, if there are any signs of disagreement, and if you can find something that can be done.
Shang Chengfeng was born in the First Battalion of the Army. It seems that he and Qi Baoer were somewhat related to each other. His father was once one of the deputy generals of the Zhennan Army.
The word "Zeng" here is a bit sad, because Shang Chengfeng's father died in the battle at the hands of the Huangqian Army when Shang Chengfeng was ten years old.
Also starting from this year, Shang Chengfeng became the youngest soldier in the Zhennan Army, who had never been seen before, and who would probably never be seen again in the future.
Shang Chengfeng is like his father. On the battlefield, he is the kind of tough guy who even if his eyeball falls off, I can press it in and continue fighting.
Therefore, the military success came quickly, and he was only twenty years old when he sat in the position that his father had only occupied for more than twenty years.
However, the injuries on his body were more severe than those in the army. There were always new injuries before the old ones healed.
At the age of thirty-five, he was hit on the waist by a hammer from the Arakawa Army, completely losing the chance to fight on the battlefield again.
