Wu Siyan stood outside the palace gate, a little impatient. She wanted to see the empress as soon as possible. She wanted to see the empress before Wu Mingliang did.
If Wu Mingliang met the empress first, she was afraid that Wu Mingliang's reasons would prevent her from meeting the empress, and she might blame Pingyang Sect for joining the sect. Although the empress does not know which sect she joined now, But with the power of the empress, it should be easy to find Ye Xu and others. After all, Ye Xu and the others had no intention of hiding their activities.
The relationship between Wu Siyan and the empress was not bad. The empress had no children of her own, but she treated her nieces and nephews well. Being regarded as the princess showed that the empress still liked Wu Siyan very much.
Wu Siyan didn't show up during breakfast at the General's Mansion. He sent someone to ask, saying that he had no appetite. Wu Mingliang didn't pay attention, thinking that Wu Siyan was showing her temper.
After dinner, Wu Mingliang was preparing to go to the palace, but Wu Huaping came running.
"Dad, Wu Siyan ran out, she is not in the house." Wu Huaping hurriedly found Wu Mingliang.
Although Wu Huaping was not very capable, he was very concerned about his own affairs. He was afraid that Wu Siyan would run to the palace and leave the royal family, and then he would have nothing, so he sent people to keep an eye on Wu Siyan. 's yard.
Wu Siyan didn't come to dinner, so he felt a little guilty, thinking that Wu Siyan might have run away! So after dinner, he went to find Wu Siyan. Although Chunxiao and Xia Xiang stopped him, they couldn't stop him. When he went in, he found that Wu Siyan was not there, so he hurriedly came to find Wu Mingliang.
"What? This damn girl actually sneaked out of the house. Why are the people you sent so useless? They can't even watch people. Come on, I want to enter the palace as soon as possible." Wu Mingliang sped up, and after getting dressed, he hurriedly left the house. , got on the carriage and rushed to the palace.
In the inner city of Taiping City, horses are not allowed to ride or fly around in the sky. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed. Therefore, even if the officials are very strong, they all ride in carriages.
The more anxious he became, the more mistakes he made. The axle broke after the carriage took a few steps, and the carriage fell down. Wu Mingliang was thrown out of the carriage. Fortunately, he had cultivation and was not injured.
Wu Mingliang was so angry that he kicked the coachman several times and had no choice but to change cars. The result was the same. The carriage just left the house fell down again. Wu Mingliang was dumbfounded. He had inspected this carriage and found that the axle was fine at all. How could it break so easily? Lose.
Wu Mingliang didn't think about anyone stopping him from going to the palace at this moment, but he just felt it was weird.
When the third car crashed again, Wu Mingliang realized that it was preventing him from entering the palace. He asked people to check the surroundings carefully, but found nothing.
Seeing that taking a car was not an option, Wu Mingliang started walking directly to the palace. As a monk, this distance was not far.
After Wu Mingliang fell flatly for a few times, he sat on the ground and began to doubt his life. Although his strength was not very strong, he still had the strength of the sixth level of the Tianxuan Realm. He felt that even if he met someone at the Saint Xuan Realm, he could survive. After a few moves, he was a little dumbfounded by the strange situation.
Wu Mingliang was surrounded by guards with Saint Xuan realm cultivation. These guards looked carefully and found no clues. In the end, Wu Mingliang felt that he had made a mistake and was not suitable to go out today.
The guard at the Saint Profound Realm volunteered and planned to carry Wu Mingliang to the palace. Wu Mingliang thought it was a good idea, but the guard who had just carried Wu Mingliang also fell out, and Wu Mingliang was thrown several meters away.
An interesting scene occurred at the gate of the General's Mansion. Wu Mingliang and several of his guards fell down on the road and could not stand up. Passers-by were dumbfounded and wondered what kind of tricks Wu Mingliang and his family were playing.
"General, we may have met a master, otherwise don't go out today." The guard was frightened by him. He was a master in the Shengxuan realm and couldn't walk. If this spread, how could he still have the face to be in the capital? mix.
"No, I have to crawl to the palace." Wu Mingliang became anxious and began to crawl on the ground, ignoring the laughter of the people around him. After all, he was already embarrassed. Are he afraid of being embarrassed again? When he arrived at the palace, he asked the empress to send someone to investigate the matter. He wanted the person behind it to pay the price.
Wu Mingliang had just climbed a few steps when a brick fell from the wall next to him and hit him directly on the head. Originally, a brick was not worth mentioning to him, but this brick hit him hard and knocked him unconscious. , and there was a big bump on his head.
Wu Siyan didn't know that her father was being tortured mercilessly by Xiang Wenjun. She finally waited until the palace gate opened. She quickly stepped forward and took out a white jade plaque. The guard at the palace gate knew Wu Siyan. As a guard of the palace, you need to have a good memory, otherwise so many officials will remember the wrong person and offend people who shouldn't be offended, and then there will be good consequences.
Although they knew each other, they still had to check the token according to the procedure. After the inspection, Wu Siyan was released. Wu Siyan went straight to the empress's study room with ease, where the empress usually stayed.
The empress does not go to court every day. Today, the empress is reviewing memorials in the imperial study. The empress is very diligent. Besides practicing, she is also at work.
The Royal Study is a large courtyard of its own. The Royal Study is a structure with a single eaves on the top of a mountain. Black tiles are laid layer upon layer on the roof. Below is a pure wooden structure. The vermilion columns are tall and majestic, and the golden walls highlight the Royal majesty.
Neat gray square tiles cover the courtyard in front of the imperial study. There are several neatly trimmed crabapple trees in the courtyard. The trees are not pruned very high, and you can have a panoramic view of the entire courtyard while standing under the eaves.
Standing at the door of the Royal Study were two women in fine clothes, both wearing soft armor and carrying long knives at their waists. There were also four women in the same clothes in the courtyard. Standing at the door of the Royal Study was a woman in palace attire. She was the palace maid beside the empress. .
Behind the imperial study is a small garden. Although the place is not large, it is very interesting. There is a pond with lotus leaves standing gracefully, and several red goldfish chasing and playing in the water.
There is an octagonal pavilion beside the pond. There are stone tables and benches in the pavilion. Several colorful plants are planted in different areas.
The geographical location of Wutang Kingdom means that the winter here is not cold, and the plants that absorb spiritual energy still bloom and bear fruit. A path paved with cobblestones winds through the garden, leading to every place where flowers bloom.
Wu Siyan walked all the way to the imperial study room, but was blocked by the female guard at the door.
"Sisters, Wu Siyan wants to see the empress." Wu Siyan took out the token and said to the guard at the door.
The guard glanced at the token, then turned around and entered the courtyard, came to the door and told the woman in palace clothes in front of the door.
The woman in palace clothes opened the door of the royal study and looked inside. Inside, the empress was sitting at the desk, reading the memorial.
The empress's study room was very simple. In the main hall was a large red desk, with paper, ink, pens and inkstones on it, and many memorials stacked together. Behind the desk was a bed, where the empress would rest and practice when she was tired.
The rest of the place is filled with rows of bookshelves, filled with all kinds of books. The Empress loves reading, so here are all her collections.
There is a flower stand near the window sill, with several bonsai placed on it. This is a rare pleasure for the empress.
The empress has been in power for ten years, but she is not very old. She is only thirty years old now. For a monk, she is still very young. The empress now has long, smooth black hair hanging behind her back, and two locks of long hair hanging in front of her forehead. In the front, she is not going to court today. The empress is dressed very casually, in a white plain gauze dress, leaning on the bed, reading a memorial in her hand.
The empress's appearance is peerless, her eyes reveal perseverance, her beauty reveals the pride of a man, and she is full of heroism without losing the charm of a woman.
"Dongfang, let her in!" Seeing the door opened, the empress already knew that Wu Siyan was coming.
There are two women beside the empress, named Dongfang Yahan and Mu Qingyun. They are the empress' right-hand men. The one who opened the door just now was Dongfang Yahan, and she is on duty today.
The guards around the empress are all women, and there are only maids in the palace, not eunuchs.
Dongfang Yahan came to the entrance of the imperial study room and looked at Wu Siyan with a smile.
"Princess Siyan is here! Your Majesty lets you in."
"Sister Yahan, how is auntie feeling today?" Wu Siyan was familiar with Dongfang Yahan and asked, holding her hand.
"What's wrong? We were in trouble just after returning home yesterday?" As a person close to the empress, Dongfang Yahan knew a lot of news, and a lot of the news reached the empress through her.
"Yeah, maybe my aunt will be very angry today. Sister Yahan, you have to beat me up!" Wu Siyan looked at Dongfang Yahan pitifully.
"How can I do that? The Empress is your aunt! You act so coquettishly and cutely, the Empress can still be angry with you!" Dongfang Yahan led Wu Siyan to the imperial study room, opened the door, and let Wu Siyan Yan went in by herself, but she did not follow.
Wu Siyan entered the door, took a long breath, and looked at the empress behind the desk.
The empress's posture did not change, she was still leaning on the bed, raising her eyes to look at Wu Siyan, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
The woman's eyes were like the red sun in the sky, with a powerful aura. Wu Siyan glanced at her and quickly lowered her head and saluted.
"Wu Siyan has met her aunt."
"Okay, it's just you and me. There's no need to be so formal. Come and sit down!" The empress put down the memorial in her hand and pointed to her side.
"Aunt, I'd better stay here! I'm afraid you'll be angry soon, so I can hide here for a while." Wu Siyan looked at the empress timidly and said.
"Oh? Can you make me angry? What have you done?" The corners of the empress' lips raised as she looked at her niece, who was more than ten years younger than herself.
"Can aunt not be angry after what I said?" Wu Siyan asked cautiously.
"Then it depends on what you are talking about! Tell me." The empress' voice did not change, and there was no trace of emotion.
"Oh! Forget it, I have to tell you sooner or later. Auntie, you said, don't be angry first, I will explain to you." Wu Siyan wanted to be vaccinated. She didn't know what the empress knew after she joined the sect. Attitude, after all, this kind of situation has never happened before.
