"I've met all the seniors." Zhuo Mufeng stepped forward and greeted each of them, feeling ashamed that he was the last to arrive.
Qin Keqing couldn't bear it and rolled her eyes. It would be great if this boy was so well-behaved in front of her.
Everyone expressed their friendly attitude, and Le Qian even laughed and said, "If you don't come here, I'm going to drag you down. Speaking of which, this time I'll take advantage of your kid. Let's go."
As the greatest contributor to the protection of the Crown Princess, Zhuo Mufeng's name was on the list, and a group of elders from Songya Yuefu were also invited. Even Qin Keqing was in Zhuo Mufeng's favor.
There were several carriages waiting at the gate of Songya Garden. Zhuo Mufeng and Leqian rode in the same carriage. The rest of the carriages were paired up, and the coachman whipped up his whip and drove off.
The roads in the Imperial City were extremely wide. Zhuo Mufeng had not had time to pay close attention to them in the past few days, but this time he and Le Qian were chatting and admiring them, and couldn't help but admire the majesty of the Imperial City.
About half an hour later, the imperial palace appeared.
A few hundred meters away from the palace, there were no houses around, and everyone got off their horses and walked. There were carriages lined up around it, and it seemed that there were many people who had arrived earlier than them.
Judging from their clothing and demeanor, they are basically officials.
Under such circumstances, the three palace masters could only line up obediently and did not dare to make any mistakes. They accepted the inspection by the soldiers according to the rules and confiscated the weapons before everyone could enter.
Zhuo Mufeng finally got a glimpse of the true face of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty Palace. It was really magnificent, with a majestic majesty rushing towards him. As far as he could see, there were white marble carvings and golden glazed tiles everywhere.
If you take a closer look, you can see that there are five steps to the first floor, ten steps to the pavilion, a winding corridor, numerous palaces, and majestic white dragon stone carvings across the roof ridges, giving the impression of taking off into the sky.
Rows of armored guards stood neatly and solemnly, wielding weapons with their hands and expressionless faces, blending into the surrounding sculptures in the rising morning sun.
The huge palace was so quiet that there was no sound, and the silence conveyed a supreme majesty that overwhelmed all directions, enough to make anyone who came surrender.
Zhuo Mufeng, a man of two generations, was slightly absent-minded at this time, and it took him a while to recover. It was not the first time for the three palace masters to come to the palace city, and their expressions did not change much.
However, Qin Xi and other senior managers came here for the first time, and were so intimidated by Miyagi's aura that they became a little cautious in their actions. Qin Keqing's pretty face turned pale, and she didn't look at all calm.
The Lord of Chihuo Palace comforted him: "Relax, nothing will happen." His eyes caught a glimpse of Zhuo Mufeng, who was as calm as usual, and there was a slight flash of admiration.
Only then did everyone calm down and follow behind without saying a word.
There were soldiers leading the way, and there were other officials around who were familiar with it. They all gathered together to chat and move forward. Since the palace was very large, they walked for about two-quarters of an hour before they arrived at a huge white marble square.
superior.
I saw that desks had been set up all around, with fruits, wine, cold dishes, etc. on them. The elegant maids were shuttled back and forth, very busy.
Someone had arrived early and sat down in a fixed position. The neighbors chatted with each other and smiled, making it look very lively.
Zhuo Mufeng and others were seated at the back of the desk on the right. A shrewd-looking young lady led them to their seats, smiled, and then left to go about their business.
With their identities, Zhuo Mufeng and others are considered the most inconspicuous in a place like this.
Not long after I sat down here, I suddenly heard a joyful voice: "Senior Brother Zhuo!"
Zhuo Mufeng was observing the surroundings and looked to the left following the sound. Leqian and others were also curious and did not expect that Zhuo Mufeng had friends here.
I saw a girl in pink clothes walking towards me with a face full of joy. She had a slender figure and a slender waist, which made her legs appear to be extremely long. Her palm-sized oval face seemed to have been sketched out by an artist with great painstaking efforts, which contrasted with the bright smile at this moment.
Indescribably intoxicating.
The palace maids around were all of high quality, but they were all outdone by this young girl.
Zhuo Mufeng stood up in shock: "Junior Sister Qiu, why are you here?" This girl was none other than Qiu Rongshang, who had not had a chance to say goodbye at Dajun Mountain.
Qiu Rongshang was extremely surprised and excited to meet Zhuo Mufeng. Her face turned red and she smiled and said, "I came here with the Eleventh Prince."
It was a coincidence that Qiu Rongshang had been depressed since she left Dajun Mountain last time. Qiu Yue thought that her daughter was distracted and was afraid that she would get into trouble, so he offered to accompany her to relax.
The father and daughter passed through the imperial city and visited various scenic spots when they happened to meet the eleventh prince in disguise. The latter was only sixteen years old and was immediately fascinated by Qiu Rongshang's appearance and temperament, and tried every means to get close to her.
Qiu Yue failed to drive him away several times, and almost couldn't help but take action, provoking the guards who were secretly protecting him. Only then did the father and daughter know the identity of the Eleventh Prince.
The other party warmly invited her as a prince, and Qiu Yue did not dare to refuse, so she had to hold her nose and admit it. This time there was a big banquet, and in order to please the beauty, the eleventh prince used his status to bring her in, and this is how we are now.
scene.
The eleventh prince?
Zhuo Mufeng frowned secretly.
Before he could ask, a handsomely dressed young man with an impressive appearance walked over and stood next to Qiu Rongshang, looking at Zhuo Mufeng curiously and slightly hostilely.
"Your Majesty, this is Senior Brother Zhuo I told you about. He is amazing." Qiu Rongshang introduced both parties.
Zhuo Mufeng finally knew that the person in front of him was the younger brother of the current emperor.
The Eleventh Prince followed the example of a Jianghu man, clasping his fists and saying, "You are the most handsome man in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Mad Dragon?" There was a hint of disbelief in his words, but he was full of demeanor.
Unexpectedly, even the other party knew his name. Zhuo Mufeng smiled bitterly: "I have met the prince."
The Eleventh Prince looked at him and said: "I heard that you have the strength of the Tianxing List at a young age, and this time you saved the Crown Princess of Northern Qi. Don't leave after the banquet, and compete with my guards to see if you are
Live up to the name." There was no room for rejection in his gesture.
If an ordinary person knew the other party's identity, they would not dare to disobey him if he heard these words. Zhuo Mufeng's expression remained normal, but he was extremely unhappy in his heart.
But Qiu Rongshang had already seen something, and she was afraid that Zhuo Mufeng would offend him, so she quickly said: "Your Majesty, since Senior Brother Zhuo is in the imperial city, there are many such opportunities, so don't rush now."
The Eleventh Prince smiled, seemingly in agreement, and believed that Zhuo Mufeng would not dare to disobey him.
Qiu Rongshang didn't dare to let the two of them stay for a long time, so she cast an apologetic look at Zhuo Mufeng, then made an excuse and left with the Eleventh Prince. The latter just didn't want to see his sweetheart chatting with other men, so of course he had no problem with it.
After the two of them left, Le Qian, who was sitting at the planning table in front of him, turned his head and looked at Zhuo Mufeng with a smile: "Mufeng, your boy is very handsome. That girl likes you."
As soon as he said this, everyone else looked at Zhuo Mufeng with different expressions.
They are all people in the world. Recently, the news about Zhuo Mufeng and Wu Yuanyuan's engagement has spread all over the world. Everyone is envious of Kuanglong's good luck and has been favored by one of the top ten.
Just now, Zhuo Mufeng also introduced Qiu Rongshang to everyone, and she turned out to be another one of the most beautiful women, one of the only two beauties left in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. When he heard Le Qian's words again, he naturally murmured in his heart.
Zhuo Mufeng said helplessly: "Senior, please stop making fun of me."
Le Qian said with a smile: "My eyes are not blind. Boy, you can do it. I think you can work harder and deceive that girl too. I have two of the most beautiful women in Eastern Zhou who fall in love with one person at the same time. It is said that
Going out is also a good story, hahaha..."
Everyone was speechless at this dissolute master of the palace, but several men could not help but look at Zhuo Mufeng curiously, as if they wanted to know what methods he had to successfully provoke the cold snorts from Qin Xi and other women.
Qin Keqing's eyes were the most strange, because she knew that in addition to the two mentioned above, this boy also had a confidante who was not inferior in appearance, and they all lived together at Tianhaimen.
What a sin, Qin Keqing shook her head, too lazy to care about such nonsense.
As time went by, more and more people came. At this time, there was a sudden sensation at the scene, but it was the arrival of a group of people that attracted everyone's attention.
Zhuo Mufeng looked up, his eyes slightly frozen.
He saw Su Zhilan at the first sight. She was wearing an orthodox purple palace dress today, with a jade ring on her waist, and light purple jade pendants hanging from her ears. Although she only wore light makeup, it perfectly highlighted her fairy-like beauty. That
The corners of his mouth that are always raised, coupled with the curling movements of his steps, give off a sinfully charming look all over his body.
It's hard to take your eyes away.
But there were also many people who looked at the young man who was half a step ahead of Su Zhilan.
This man is more than seven feet tall. Although he is not very tall, he has a well-proportioned figure. He has a golden crown on his head, a handsome appearance, and a pair of eyes that are breathtaking. He shows the magnanimity and demeanor of a prince in his stride.
Even Zhuo Mufeng and others immediately recognized that this man must be the rumored Prince Qi Yuanhao of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
Qi Yuanhao and others were arranged at the front desk on the right, but when passing by Zhuo Mufeng, Yao Fei suddenly approached Qi Yuanhao and said a few words with a smile.
Qi Yuanhao stopped in astonishment, turned his head, and walked over with a sincere smile on his face: "Dare I ask if it's Mr. Zhuo who's in person?" Every move and every move showed a humble and courteous demeanor, which made people heart-broken.
Zhuo Mufeng sighed secretly. He didn't want to be in the limelight, but the situation didn't allow it, so he had to stand up and smile back: "Your Majesty, you're welcome."
Qi Yuanhao laughed and said: "These past few days, I have heard my wife praising Young Hero Zhuo. When I met her today, I realized that the meeting was even more famous. My wife's life is entirely dependent on Young Hero's rescue."
Zhuo Mufeng didn't believe that Lu Jing didn't tell the other party about his suspicions about him. He didn't know whether the other party was really grateful or just pretending, but he smiled and said, "It's just a duty. The prince is being polite."
Qi Yuanhao smiled and said a few more words. With his status, it was of course impossible for him to chat with Zhuo Mufeng for a long time. He apologized and said he would express his gratitude, and led everyone away.
The demon concubine quietly blinked at Zhuo Mufeng, which was full of temptation, but unfortunately Zhuo Mufeng didn't look at it. On the contrary, Gongyang Jin's cold eyes were completely absorbed by him.
But this time, Zhuo Daguanren showed no signs of weakness.
