Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Beauty Introduces Nanxun Hall
Since the cold winter in Chang'an City, the climate temperature difference has been very abnormal. In the early morning, wearing a turban, you can feel the cool breeze passing over your head. By noon, the sun gradually warms the air, and people take off their turbans one after another.
A large cloak on the surface of the collar robe.
The ruts on the loess road have not been frozen hard, and the wheels running through the ruts make a clattering sound.
Li Siye rode behind a pair of carriages on a fat black horse, with golden tassels hanging on the roof, and bells jingling as the carriages shook.
This is the special car used by Yang Yuyao's family for traveling. Most people with status in Chang'an City can recognize it. Some minor officials traveling on the road saw it and quickly moved aside.
The carriage approached the Jinming Gate of Xingqing Palace. People who are familiar with Xingqing Palace will know that Jinming Gate is the shortest way to Nanxun Hall where Concubine Yang lives. Even the Longwu Army and the Longwu Army who were on duty at Jinming Gate
The palace officials are also people specially arranged by the imperial concubine to facilitate the Yang family sisters' coming and going.
So when the carriage approached the Jinming Gate, the eunuch on duty who saw the decorations on the carriage immediately ordered the city gate to be opened. However, seeing someone following the carriage, the eunuch did not dare to let him go without permission, so he quickly approached the carriage and asked in a low voice
: "Madam, are you introducing me to the palace again?"
The answer he received was like cold water being poured out: "Step aside, you'll have a lot to worry about!"
The palace eunuch quickly retreated to the side, his face turned pale and he lowered his head. Li Siye followed the carriage past him, held the reins of the horse and paused for a moment. He took out a Sasanian gold coin from his sleeve, bent down and whispered: "I'm sorry, this
I’ll give you a small gift as tea money.”
The palace official was used to working at the city gate, so he subconsciously reached out to pick it up, and when he touched it, he felt it was a heavy gold coin. He couldn't help but raise his head to look at Li Siye, who was already heading toward the palace gate with the horse's belly between his legs.
go.
He didn't dare to have any objections to Yang Yuyao's reprimand just now, so he only dared to shift the target of his resentment. However, Li Siye took the initiative to bend down and give a gift, which only made him sigh that the widow was really hateful and incompetent.
After entering the Jinming Gate, there is a row of stables under the city wall on the right, which are specially used to collect horses and carriages entering the palace. Li Siye got off his horse, and two Longwu soldiers took the initiative to lead him away.
Yang Yuyao got out of the carriage, stood on the carriage shaft, opened her arms and moved her arms, and then got out of the carriage with the help of a servant. Li Siye stepped forward and followed her, and the two of them walked along the stone road in the palace toward the South Xun Palace.
And go.
The planning of Xingqing Palace is not strictly based on the layout of the palace. It is entirely Li Longji's personal creative design. In this open garden-style palace, there are no layers of palace walls like those in the Daming Palace.
This kind of architectural level seems extremely solemn and cramped, and aesthetic fatigue will appear for a long time. On the contrary, the open, flexible and eclectic design of Xingqing Palace made the emperor feel spiritually comfortable.
Everything has two sides. The palace shows the majesty of the emperors, but also restrains their souls. They must be homebodies from the moment they ascend the throne. The room for all their ideas of creating beauty is in their own houses.
.
Yang Yuyao walked slowly in front, turning back to look at him from time to time, her eyes full of charm.
Today she is wearing an apricot yellow jacket on the upper body and a princess-colored gauze skirt on the lower body. The chest-high skirt is decorated with peach petal patterns. This kind of clothing is at the forefront of aesthetics. The laces of the skirt are just barely able to block a
She is fair and plump, and her openness and boldness exceed that of any woman in the palace. The difference between ordinary women is as big as the difference between ordinary women's clothing and the Victoria's Secret underwear show.
Li Siye suddenly realized at this moment that since he met this widow, he had never seen the same clothes on her. Today there is one outfit and tomorrow there are many different patterns. Although they are all gauze skirts and undershirts, the complicated changes in patterns and colors are also
Let him think that this woman will never wear clothes with other women in her life.
"You have already been to Nanxun Hall last time, right."
"Well, it seems so. Speaking of which, it was also here that we first met." Li Siye felt regretful after saying this, which sounded a bit ambiguous.
But Yang Yuyao didn't feel anything was wrong at all. She slowed down and walked side by side with him, whispering: "After leaving the palace today, don't go back to Pingkangfang to stay in the backyard. Stay overnight in the building of my mansion. Try
How does it feel to try it?"
The open-minded widow is unusual. She no longer needs to imply subtle hints in subtle ways when speaking. She is so explicit.
Li Siye said nothing because his mind was not here at all.
The two of them came to the Yingzhou Gate of Nanxun Hall and looked back at the rippling blue waves of the Dragon Pond and the misty smoke. The white marble pillars of the Yingzhou Gate seemed to be immersed in the clouds and smoke. The name really fits.
After entering the Yingzhou Gate, walk forward for dozens of steps, pass through another gate, and then enter the Nanxun Hall with a raised foundation. Follow the stone steps up to the corridor. The cornices at the four corners reach up to the sky, and the red columns are arranged in layers.
A palace eunuch stood at the door holding a whisk in his hand. When he saw the two of them, he bowed and said, "Madam, I said you don't need to announce your arrival. You can go in and see her directly."
After passing through the pillars and entering the palace gate, there was a long white wool Persian carpet in front of him. Even if it was pure white, it was so white that it had patterns and layers. He rubbed his shoes vigorously in front of the threshold for a long time before he had the heart to step in and step on the carpet.
The carpet moves on.
There were bronze charcoal stoves placed next to the pillars on both sides of the hall, and the ashes flickered inside. They stepped on the long carpet, and there was no sound of their footsteps. The two came to the independent partition, which was made of nanmu.
At the moon cave door, a curtain made of pearls and jade hangs down to block the scenery inside.
Yang Yuyao stopped, turned around and said to Li Siye: "Wait here for a moment."
She opened the bead curtain and entered the moon cave door. The sound of the delicate chatter came from inside. Li Siye stared at the still swinging bead string and began to divert his attention. It seemed like a green mountain waterfall shrouded in smoke. This beaded curtain must be
It took a lot of effort.
Yang Yuyao's voice came from inside: "Li Siye, come in."
He carefully adjusted his steps and walked in. He only raised his head once and then bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Li Siye, pays homage to your Majesty."
Yang Yuhuan held a white parrot in her arms, lying lazily on the fragrant imperial concubine couch given by Li Siye. Because the scent of this fragrant couch was so strong, the whole room was filled with a faint fragrance.
Li Siye didn't pay much attention to the change in Yang Yuhuan's appearance, but he felt that her body shape was wider. Of course, her waist was still slender, and she could feel the undulating exquisite curves lying there.
Yang Yuhuan said in a calm tone: "Si Ye, I heard from Third Sister, what do you want to do, Beiting Jiedushi? What is your current official position?"
"To express my gratitude to you, I am currently the deputy governor of Anxi and the envoy of Shule and Khotan."
Yang Yuhuan lowered his head in thought and spat out words intermittently: "I don't know much about the official position. Since you are the deputy governor of Anxi, why don't you further serve as the governor of Anxi where you are, but go to Beiting to serve?"
It turned out that Yang Yuhuan was really deaf to what was going on outside the window, and was not interested in her husband's country at all. He probably didn't know about Gao Xianzhi's successful expedition to Xiaobolu. Yang Yuyao quickly explained from the side: "My dear, it's not that Li Siye is unwilling.
Staying in Anxi, it’s just that Gao Xianzhi is already the governor of Anxi, and Gao Xianzhi has just made great military exploits, the saint will not give his position to others."
"It turns out to be Gao Xianzhi. I think I heard Sanlang mention it. I heard he is very powerful."
Hearing the soft words of the imperial concubine, I feel that her intimidation has plummeted, just like Lin Chiling's temperament can never play a ruthless concubine. Not only is she not ruthless, but she also loves small animals to the end.
"So who is Beiting Jiedushi? If you want to replace him, will there be any obstacles?"
Li Siye crossed his hands and said, "I would like to express my gratitude to you, the Imperial Envoy of Beiting, is Yang Zhilie."
Yang Yuhuan frowned and thought carefully. It seemed that he had never heard of this person before, and he was not a descendant of the Hongnong Yang family. There was no need to think about anything else. He immediately agreed to Li Siye and said: "I never ask Sanlang for an official position on behalf of others.
But don’t worry, I will hand it over to Gao Lishi, who will then recommend it to Sanlang."
