Seeing that the power of Xuanhuang's wish in Duwu Temple was greatly reduced, Cheng Yu's heart also thumped, and then he received a message from Jia Fei within his consciousness:
'Brother Cheng! That female Martial Lord from the Martial Lord Hall...'
Just now, Cheng Yu and Qin Hongyu were saying goodbye in the sky above Duwu Temple, and Jia Fei below could clearly see them. He saw that the female warrior was a little strange when she said goodbye, but she couldn't hear what they said.
At this time, Cheng Yu informed Jiafei about the Jiuzhou Soul-Calming Bell. After hearing this, Jiafei frowned and took another look in the direction of Duwu Temple. The look in his eyes became complicated to the naked eye.
Just when Cheng Yu was about to leave to return to the Martial Temple, the Martial Lord Token in his arms suddenly stopped declining and began to look cooler again.
So he stopped and observed carefully, and after about ten breaths of time, the momentum of the token was restored very quickly.
When Cheng Yu reached into his arms and took it out and held it in his hand, the coldness in his hand had returned to its original state.
Um……
He turned his head and looked over the Duwu Temple, and saw that the Xuanhuang Wish Power of the Qianyuan Prefecture Wujun Temple was gradually recovering.
fine……
It seems that the Jiuzhou soul-suppressing bell that was rung just now really consumed a lot of Qin Hongyu's Xuanhuang willpower. However, she had been a Martial Lord for a long time and had a solid foundation, so she recovered quickly.
He turned around and explained to Jia Fei again. The cat demon also breathed out a sigh of relief, and his frown finally relaxed.
'Let's leave here first. The Jinwu Guards over there are driving people away, and they should be clearing here soon.'
Cheng Yu sent a message to Jia Fei, and the two of them turned around and headed towards Yujie.
At this time, there were many shops on both sides of Imperial Street that were open for business, and pedestrians on the street either stopped to look up, or talked in groups, and more of them flocked towards the Wen and Wu temples.
However, even though the two temples had just undergone such a huge change, it did not hinder the sound of those silk and bamboo wind instruments, fists and orders.
But at this time, Cheng Yu and Jia Fei moved forward in silence with a tacit understanding.
He raised his eyes and looked forward. At the far end of the royal street was the imperial palace. With the help of the cat demon's clairvoyance, Cheng Yu saw wisps of purple gas steaming up from the depths of a large building complex with golden roofs.
The purple energy was leisurely and ethereal, as if nothing had happened. It seemed that the incident just now had not affected the fortune of the dynasty.
Suddenly, Cheng Yu remembered His Highness Prince Jin whom he met in Qianjiang Fucheng. At that time, the crown prince also had some purple energy on his head, but he didn't know where Prince Jin was at this time.
It stands to reason that the prince usually lives in the East Palace, but when he looked to the east, he did not see any imperial aura.
Perhaps as a prince, he also lived in the palace?
But that’s not right. It would be understandable if the young prince lived in the palace, but the Jin prince has already grown up...
Moreover, there should be more than one prince in the city. For example, King Yu, why can't he see his royal aura?
The main purpose of this trip to Beijing is to go to Prince Yu's Mansion to inquire about the Linglong Dice.
Hu Meizi said before that the red semen beads in the exquisite dice should be in pairs. Since these beads came from Prince Yu's palace, there should be some clues about the red semen beads in the palace.
But at the moment, he doesn't even know where Prince Yu's Mansion is. His consciousness has also carefully scanned the inner city several times, but he hasn't found anything.
Just now, we should ask Qin Hongyu in the Yin Division, and at the same time, we can also find out the details of King Yu.
Walking side by side on the street with Jia Fei, Cheng Yu kept thinking about his thoughts as he walked forward.
The cat demon next to her didn't notice anything strange about Cheng Yu at first, until she noticed that Cheng Yu's barrier formation was suddenly set up again, and then she looked at him in surprise.
'It's okay, I'm just in case.'
But Jia Fei was so astute that he immediately noticed something was wrong and started to get to the bottom of it.
Cheng Yu then conveyed his doubts to her.
'It's no wonder that Brother Cheng has doubts in his heart. The sudden changes in Man Mo Temple just now are really disturbing. How about... how about we find a local to inquire again?'
Cheng Yu had this idea in mind when he heard this. At this moment, a kind old man happened to be walking towards him. Seeing that he didn't look like he was going to join in the fun, Cheng Yu took two steps forward, saluted him and asked where the Prince Yu's palace was.
.
After asking, Cheng Yu saw that the old man did not answer him, but looked him up and down, so Cheng Yu added:
"I am a foreigner who came to the capital to look for friends. My good friend told me that he lives next to Prince Yu's Mansion. If you look for Prince Yu's Mansion, you can find his home, so I asked my father-in-law."
The old man suddenly nodded when he heard the words. Seeing that although Cheng Yu and Jia Fei had extraordinary temperaments, their clothes were very ordinary and they spoke with a foreign accent, he believed Cheng Yu's words and raised his hand towards the main gate of the imperial city.
Instructions:
"Prince Yu's Mansion is the first house on the left hand side of the Royal Street near the Imperial City Palace Gate. There are two vermilion doors at the door. There are 8864 golden door nails on the doors. The plaque on the door reads "Prince Yu's Mansion".
The big character is Li."
Cheng Yu heard this and bowed his hands to thank him. Next to him, Jia Fei scratched his head and said doubtfully:
"The first house on the left side of the Imperial City Palace Gate? How could I remember that it was the former residence of the Marquis of Jing'an? Please think about it again, don't remember the wrong door?"
When the old man heard what Jia Fei said, he immediately became unhappy and said:
"Hi! I have lived under the emperor for fifty-eight years. Among the high-ranking officials in the capital, which ones have been demoted and which ones have been knighted, I have nothing to do with them. But since I was a child,
I’ve never heard of a Marquis of Jing’an, but you, a young man from a foreign country, must have made it up on your own.”
The cat demon frowned when he heard this and was about to retaliate when Cheng Yu secretly sent a message:
'Don't fight against him like you did in the outer city. This old man doesn't know that the Marquis of Jing'an is also ordinary. I remember you once mentioned that the Marquis of Jing'an saved the founder of the country from the dead. Then his mansion
It’s understandable that it’s right next to the palace gate of the imperial city.
It's just that the Marquis of Jing'an of his Qian family was not hereditary. He was expelled from the capital and moved back to Qingchuan County after only passing on to the second generation. Naturally, this good location was freed up. It was passed down for hundreds of years and became the prince's palace.
, but no one has long remembered the former Marquis of Jing'an. People in the capital look down on foreigners, so there is no need to be angry with them.'
After restraining Jia Fei, Cheng Yu smiled at the old man again and said:
"My good friend said casually, I don't have to worry about it. It's just that when we first arrived in the capital, Prince Yu's Mansion must occupy a large area. My good friend never told him which direction he lived in the Prince's Mansion. I didn't know how to find it for a while.
, My father-in-law is a person who has lived under the Emperor’s feet for a long time, and he must be familiar with Prince Yu’s Mansion. I hope you can tell me a few things.”
As soon as Cheng Yu said these words, the old man's eyebrows finally relaxed:
"Hey, what this gentleman is saying makes sense. Old man, I grew up naked in the capital. Since your good friend said that you can find him by looking for Prince Yu's Mansion, he must be the one who lives north of Prince Yu's Mansion.
North Street.
You don't know, the Prince Yu's Mansion occupies a very large area. To the west is the Imperial Street, to the south is the palace wall, and to the east is the Dongcheng Bingmasi Yamen. There used to be several families near the Yamen.
Later, because a school field was built, they were all driven away. Therefore, only the North Street to the north of it has other people living there. You can go to North Street to find..."
The old man suddenly paused while he was talking and looked at a three-story building on the roadside. There was a pair of red lanterns hanging at the door of the building.
Cheng Yu looked around and saw that the lights in the building were brightly lit, singing and dancing were going on, and orders were noisy. The sounds of confusion could be heard all the time, and a strong fragrance filled his nose.
Check the bar.
The old man turned a blind eye to the warblers in the building, and only stared at the three young men who were about to come out.
The three of them were also dressed as young master Wen Sheng. When they all stepped out of the hooked threshold, the old man suddenly frowned and said:
"stop!"
The three literary students were walking out of the door with their arms around each other, talking and laughing. They were staggering a little while walking, and there was a faint smell of alcohol coming from them. They had obviously just eaten. At this time, they heard someone stop drinking.
All of them are clever.
"Hey! Daddy, why do you... hiccup! Why are you here too? I just heard that a large hall at Duwu Temple collapsed, but you also want to go see the excitement?"
One of the young men recognized the old man as his father and asked, burping from wine.
"Asshole! What am I looking for? I came out to look for you but couldn't find you. It happened that these two strangers asked me where Prince Yu's Mansion was, and that's when I saw you guys coming out of here."
"Prince Yu's Mansion?"
When the three drunken and slutty young men heard the words "Prince Yu's Palace", they looked at each other, their eyes full of teasing.
The three of them laughed and laughed, and then looked at Cheng Yu and Jia Fei. Seeing that they were also two young gentlemen, the three young men laughed more and more wildly:
"You two dear brothers, could it be that they are also here in the name of the Five Beauties of Prince Muyu's Palace?"
The three young men smelled of alcohol and joked wantonly, which made the old man next to him so angry that he rushed towards him, covered his son's mouth and cursed:
"The evil beast is full of farts. You don't study well at home, but you go out to the public to talk about the emperor's relatives. Are you going to cause my family to be beheaded?"
"Hey! It's just chatting after tea and drinks. The news has already spread in the capital. Why is dad like this? It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!"
The old man's son pushed away the old hand in front of his mouth, and the two drinking buddies next to him also echoed with the smell of alcohol:
"That's right, uncle is overly worried. The reputation of Prince Yu's Mansion as one of the Five Beauties has been known to everyone in the entire capital since the beginning of the year."
The three junior students took advantage of the drunkenness and sighed repeatedly, causing Jia Fei on the side to look at Cheng Yu involuntarily, and then asked in a rough voice:
"Five beauties? What are five beauties?"
"These five beauties are...ah, hey, hey!"
As soon as the old man's son got up, he was unexpectedly grabbed by the ears by the old man beside him, and was beaten and kicked away.
When the other two young men next to them saw this, they pointed at the backs of the father and son and laughed and shook their heads:
"He is of no use. Let me tell you. These five beauties are the only legitimate daughter of King Yu. She was named the empress of Princess Anting when she reached the age of hairpin at the beginning of this year. In addition to her subordinates,
The four personal female officials are collectively called the Five Beauties."
"oh……"
Hearing this, Jia Fei let out a long oh, but glanced at Cheng Yu inexplicably.
At this time, Cheng Yu frowned slightly and asked the two drunken young men:
"It stands to reason that as my brother just said, the five beauties of Prince Yu's Mansion are a family matter in the palace of the royal family, so it should be difficult for outsiders to comment on it. But how did it become known to the whole city?"
"That's because you don't know something. King Yu is very independent in his behavior. He doesn't have many taboos on matters in his palace. And the little princess he gave birth to is even more distinguished from other royal relatives.
The ladies in the boudoir are very different. They have the style of King Yu in those days, so they are the most favored. Even when she was granted the title, the ranks of her four personal female officials, Xing, Yue, Yun and Feng, were higher than those of other families.
The female officer is half a level higher."
When the drunk young man talked about something he was proud of, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Then what are the stars, the moon, the clouds, and the wind?"
Another young man asked and rushed to reply:
"The so-called stars, moon, clouds, and wind are the four beautiful beauties who grew up with the princess. After the princess was granted the title, they were also named female officials, and they were called: Huanxing.
, soak in the moon, shine in the clouds, moisten the wind.
Among these five people, the young princess is especially talented and beautiful, which you and other outsiders would not know."
"You are just echoing what others say and have no opinion. In my opinion, the little princess is certainly extremely beautiful, but if she compares it with the four female officials around her, tsk tsk!"
"Tsk! You just can't reach the level of the little princess, so you can't eat the grapes and say the grapes are sour. In my opinion, not to mention the little princess, there are four female officials under her, each of whom is also a sixth-rank female chief.
, you, like a toad, still can’t eat it.”
Seeing that the two crazy students were about to get angry at each other, Jia Fei had no choice but to change the subject and asked:
"So, have you two met this little princess with your own eyes?"
When the two young men who were suffocating met the question, they immediately stopped arguing and both raised their chins and replied:
"That's natural!"
"They all live under the emperor's feet, so naturally they have seen it. Just two days ago, Prince Yu's family went to Xishan Villa to stay out of the city. We brothers also saw it with our own eyes on the roadside. That manner, that momentum... tsk tsk tsk!
"
"Eh? Isn't that right? When the princes and princesses go out of the city, don't they all stay in their cars? How did you see it?"
Hearing Jia Fei's rhetorical question, the two drunk young men looked a little disdainful and shook their heads and laughed:
"You must be from the north. I don't know that in my southern capital city, during the hot summer season, the car windows only have gauze to block mosquitoes, so you can naturally see them. It's a pity..."
"It's just a pity that it can't be seen clearly?"
"No, no!"
The drunk man shook his fingers and continued to laugh:
"Although it is through the gauze curtain and weft hat, you can vaguely see the beautiful appearance of the people in the car, tsk tsk! Every one of them is as beautiful as in the painting... It is a pity that Prince Yu and his family are going to Xishan Villa this time.
During my short stay, I only went to see the princess and two female officials. I only saw three beauties out of the five, and only two beauties were missing. Isn’t it a pity...what a pity?"
