v5 Chapter 36: The Gu family entered the palace and met the emperor and queen
When Yang Qiong shouted Zhao's and others, they were all energized. They resisted the cold and followed them out of the car windows. They were all amazed when they saw the towering city wall in front of them.
"Finally here! The city wall of Jiankang is really different from the city wall over there. It's tall and long, and you can't see the edge!" The soldier explained with a chuckle: "Old Madam, this Jiankang is the capital. What you see is only a corner. When you enter the city, you will know how prosperous it is."
Zhao immediately looked forward to it, and was no longer as lackluster as before.
The soldiers guarding the city in front wanted to do a routine inspection. Dong Yuanjie took out the waist badge from the carriage, and all the soldiers immediately knelt down, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Wen."
How dare those soldiers really check, they let it go after just a few glances, and they don't even know who is sitting in the carriage behind.
As soon as the carriage entered Jiankang, Zhao and others were shocked by the prosperity in front of them, "This Jiankang is worthy of being a capital city, even the houses are several floors, our place is the best It's just one floor and a small attic."
Zhao Shi suddenly came up with a sentence, Yang Qiong next to him was stunned, thinking that she had never mentioned Jiankang to anyone for so many years, she couldn't help but think deeply, what is she really Is she heartless, or does she not care about her previous life at all?
Yang Qiong couldn't understand, seeing everyone still looking around, she said after deliberation: "Mother, don't look at it, we will have time to look in the future, and now we have to enter the palace, you still think about it What if we enter the palace later, after all, we are the mother's house of the Empress, and we can't go wrong with the rules, otherwise it will be easy to discredit the Empress."
"Then what are we going to do?" Hearing this, Zhao Shi immediately became nervous.
"Ask Wen Wang and Wu Wang before entering the palace later, and see what they say." Yang Qiong has never been in the palace before, so she doesn't know how to bow.
Zhao thought for a while, then suddenly smiled: "Yang Qiong, I thought you were going to live a carefree life, but I didn't expect Jiankang to be able to think of these things, and it really has grown a lot."
Yang Qiong laughed twice, can she think of a lot of past when she enters Jiankang? This Jiankang is no better than other places. If you hit a person on the road, it may be from a high-level mansion. If you are not careful in words and deeds, you will easily get into trouble.
Fortunately, among them, she is more likely to cause trouble.
The carriage went all the way through the bustling street market, and then passed a high-level mansion, Yang Qiong introduced: "This is already where officials live, and our family should also be here. It's the palace. It's just that I've only looked at it from a distance before, and it's not easy to approach there."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but get nervous. They were going to such a strict place now.
Gu Huijun asked curiously, "Mother, how long have you lived in Jiankang?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Yang Qiong said casually: "Ten years! I was born in Jiankang, so there are some old people here, if they haven't left, bring them with you another day. You go out for a walk."
Xu Bingyao saw that Yang Qiong didn't seem to want to bring up the past, so she changed the subject and asked about some interesting things about Jiankang.
After passing this mansion, the convoy was stopped again. This time, everyone did not dare to look around.
The soldiers who stopped them heard that it was King Wen and King Wu who brought the family of the king to the palace to express gratitude. If they dared to stop them, they were released in a short time.
When they got here, they could see the officials passing by from the shadowy curtain of the car. Zhao was so nervous that he was almost speechless.
After entering the palace, the carriage can no longer sit, and the group can only get off the carriage and use it to go.
At this moment, the Gu family really saw the majesty of the palace, and they couldn't see it all at a glance. Standing here, I felt as small as a speck of dust.
Dong Yuanjie saw the nervousness of the Gu family, went up to comfort a few words, and raised some precautions, "Grandfather, grandmother, it's already past the time of the early court, so you don't have to worry, Let's go directly to the Mingxiu Palace in the mother's queen, where the father and the emperor must be, and Niu Niu is probably also there, when we get there, it's all my own family, so don't be nervous."
Gu Mingde heard the words and breathed a sigh of relief. If he really wanted them to face a lot of high officials, he would definitely not be able to hold it.
The family followed the Dong Yuanjie brothers around the palace, and finally reached a magnificent palace. Dong Yuanjie turned around and said to the Gu family: "Grandfather, this is where the mother and queen live. I want him to report."
The person Dong Yuanjie sent to report soon came out, and Cuixi came out with him.
Nowadays, Cuixi is the maid next to the empress, the first confidant. She dresses decently, and has rules in every move. It seems that the family is not used to it.
Cuixi made up her mind, and after giving two salutes to the Dong Yuanjie brothers, she stepped forward to salute Gu Mingde and said, "The servant has seen Bo Yong An, the emperor and the empress are in the palace, please come with the servant. "
The family followed behind Cuixi timidly, during which Cuixi said something to comfort them.
Gu Shuixiu was kneeling like this by the Gu family, and she felt a little uncomfortable. Dong Chenghu had already said, "Get up, your family, not outside, so you don't need to be so polite."
Gu Mingde and the others were relieved after hearing Dong Chenghu's words, and stood up with each other's arms.
Dong Chenghu looked at his family carefully, and said with a chuckle, "Sis, father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother-in-law, you all have a seat, now it's freezing cold, and it's not easy for you to travel."
Gu Shuixiu nodded in agreement, and ordered the beautiful scenery around her to go down and cook **** soup for the Gu Mingde family.
"Daddy, you've been on this road for more than three months, haven't you! Can you bear it?"
Gu Mingde found that Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu were still the same as before, their attitude towards their family had not changed, and they were instantly relieved, but they were still a little excited, and their speech was incoherent.
"Shuixiu, no, Empress, I still feel like I'm dreaming!" Gu Mingde said with a smile.
The Zhao Shi who was beside him reacted and explained quickly: "Your father would wake up laughing in his dreams since he heard about your affairs. It has been more than three months, and he is still awake!"
