I came from heaven [traveling]

"Isn't this very good? The Lijiao Pavilion is a place where I devote myself to academic research and cultivate talents. Just like my Chuanggong Pavilion only does construction work, the farther the disputes in the court are, the better. By the way, I don't know Nangong How long has the priest been in the palace? It’s really presumptuous, we’ve known each other for so long, and Esprit still doesn’t know the full name of the Nangong priest.”

Maybe it was because I looked a little silly, which caused the Nangong priest to cover her mouth and giggle, her eyes were bent into crescent moons, and she looked very relaxed, and replied me in an elegant way: "Now you are not just on par with me. I am not used to calling you Nangong Instructor every time I am a superintendent, or Jin Nanhou bestowed by the emperor. My name is Nangong Muchun, just call me Muchun in private."

"Actually, I was quite surprised when I met you when I was studying palace rules. I didn't expect that there would be a young woman who became a supervisor in this grand hall. It is conceivable that Miss Mu Chun is very powerful."

"Who said that women are inferior to men? The ancestors of Nangong accompanied the late emperor when he conquered the world. Therefore, after the late emperor stabilized the country, he appointed our Nangong family to take over the post of priest of the Lijiao Pavilion for generations. This move is to show that In the world, Mingjun loves virtuous ministers, and the fate of the country will live forever. It has been inherited to me for a hundred years. Even if I am a woman, I still have to succeed the priest. This is no different from hereditary. Therefore, the relationship between the Tantai family and the Nangong family It also became a good story of Daxuan."

"I see."

Seeing that I suddenly became enlightened, Nangong Muchun's face showed a little complacency, but a family has been monopolized by an official function for so long, which fully shows that the foundation of the Nangong family is deep enough and stable in this palace.Although the Lijiao Pavilion does not participate in the court power struggle, the strength of the Nangong family should not be underestimated.

When we chatted all the way and regained our senses, Nangong Muchun and I had reached the door of the Lijiao Pavilion and were about to say goodbye, but Muchun stopped me and said, "Since Lord Hou is here, why don't you come in and drink some tea to rest before leaving."

I wanted to reject Mu Chun's invitation, but suddenly remembered what Ying Tiansong said to me in prison. The Nangong family has been in this palace for generations. The existence of witnesses, so, about the story of Rihuiyue Studio, I probably can find the answer from Mu Chun.

So, I gladly accepted her invitation and followed my steps into the Ritual Pavilion.Mu Chun took me into a tea room specially set up for meeting guests. There were mahogany shelves on all sides, and old tea leaves and various scrolls were placed on them.

Soon someone came in with refreshments. I looked sideways at Mu Chun. She tilted her head slightly and still had crescent-shaped eyes, staring straight at me like that. Finally, she said: : "Although we were chatting along the way, Master Hou has something on his mind, right? If you want to ask anything, just ask."

It seems that Nangong Muchun also has the ability to see through people's hearts at a glance. I smiled embarrassedly: "Master Nangong is really insightful."

"Master Hou has won the prize. I just saw that you are full of preoccupations, and it is all written on your face."

Now that I have said that, I asked unceremoniously: "I don't know if Governor Nangong has heard that there is a place in this palace. There are two buildings there, and the one facing east is called..."

Before I could talk to me, Mu Chun, who had just picked up the teacup, dropped the cup on the table with trembling hands, and the tea splashed all over me, so the two of us stood up one after another.But Mu Chun didn't ask me if I was burned, but went straight to the door and closed it. She turned around and frowned slightly, and just looked at me quietly like that. After a while, she whispered:

"I have always heard that Lord Hou is not from Xuan Kingdom. I can understand this, but when I was studying the palace rules, it was probably my negligence that I didn't inform them all. Regarding the Rihuiyue Studio, it is forbidden to mention it in the palace."

"Forbidden?"

I was a little confused about the situation, so I had to ask back. Mu Chun saw that a large amount of tea had been stained on my body, and then he realized that he hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his official uniform to wipe it for me. Don't be so intimate. Well, hate it, I'll be ashamed!Waving his hand to reject her kindness, he took the handkerchief and wiped it on his own.

Mu Chun stood aside angrily and continued, "Why is Lord Hou interested in this place?"

I knew she wanted to inquire about some news, so I just shook my head with a smile; "I'm just curious."

Since this place is not allowed to be mentioned, and I haven't figured out which side Nangong Muchun is on, of course I can't tell the whole story. Seeing that I don't want to talk about this topic anymore, she had to give up: "Master Hou just moved into the palace not long ago. Naturally, I don’t know much about the rules. Mu Chun reminds me a few words. Don’t be curious and don’t ask too much. It’s the best not to listen or read or talk. Just enjoy life with peace of mind. The more you know, the better you will be. It is easy to cause death."

"Miss Lao Muchun reminded me, Esprit will pay attention."

"I still have things to do, so I won't be with Master Hou."

"Well, go get busy. I'll also go back to Chuanggong Pavilion to have a look. Recently, the river has been treated smoothly, but I feel like an idler."

"Where is it, the smooth progress of the river treatment is all due to Lord Hou's whimsy to create such an easy-to-use locomotive."

"I have won the prize. Then... I will take my leave first."

Backing away from the Lijiao Pavilion, I walked towards the Chuanggong Pavilion while holding my chin in thought. Coincidentally, I met Qu Chunzhi in front, and Qi Shanbei came from behind. I smiled and waved to him: "Vice General Qi, come here, come here!"

Qi Shanbei led a group of people, probably on a routine inspection of the imperial palace, when he heard the voice, he looked towards me, then turned his head to give a few words to the guards beside him, and then dismissed everyone in the ward. When the team was far away, he came to me: "Master Ji, you are calling me at the top of your voice, what is your order?"

"On patrol?"

"Yes."

"I bother you?"

"What's the matter, is it possible to pretend to turn a blind eye after seeing Lord Hou, that will be punished."

Qi Shanbei said jokingly, and I put my hands on my chest and stared at him: "I said, Qu Chunzhi has become a lot more talkative, how did you learn to be so tactful?"

"Sleek? Is there?"

"do not have it?"

"Come on, tell me, why did you invite me here?"

"Remember to come to the palace at dinner time. Brother Qu is back, so why don't you have to hold a banquet to celebrate the wind and wash away the dust. Remember to bring Shuinan with you. Speaking of Shuinan, why do I feel like I haven't seen her for a long time?"

"It's a good idea. Don't worry. I'll definitely come for such a good thing. Shuinan? You've been working as a maid in the second princess's bedroom? Tell me about you. Ever since you became a marquis, I don't even care about my sister!"

"What you said is really too much. I'm busy recently. I'll call Shuinan tonight. I'll cook a big meal for you myself."

"Then I'll wait and see. Don't talk about it. I'll go first."

"carry on."

Damn, why does it feel like everyone is so busy?As if I were alone!As soon as they entered the Chuanggong Pavilion, a group of craftsmen gathered around with blueprints, asking how to arrange the diversion in the lower reaches of the Xuanshun River. Xu Yangyan, the court official, begged to see Lord Gongdu!"

I think, on weekdays, our F4 is like flying solo, and we can’t get enough people. Today is wonderful. I haven’t started cooking a big meal yet, and these gourd babies come one after another. All right!Xu Yangyan ran in happily in small steps, and I put the blueprint back into Zi Jiang's hand next to me: "Go and do other things first."

After speaking, he took Xu Yangyan and left Chuanggong Pavilion, and he followed behind me enthusiastically: "I heard that you are going to invite everyone to a banquet tonight, why don't you invite me?"

"Do you still need to invite me? Didn't you come by yourself?"

"Can this be the same thing? According to what you mean, I'm the kind of person who comes here uninvited?"

"You think I'm a fool, and you still believe in your evil? You came to Chuanggong Pavilion to find me just to beg for a meal? Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"Oh, you are worthy of being promoted to be a marquis, and now you speak with a straight back! Tsk tsk tsk."

"You kid is here to find a smoker."

"Okay, okay, I just came out of His Highness's bedroom. I was planning to go to the Chief Secretary's Pavilion. I stopped by and saw you entered the Chuanggong Pavilion and came to join in the fun."

"Since you're here, I have something to ask you."

"Hehe, what's the matter, you're still serious."

I pulled Xu Yangyan's sleeves and walked towards the corner where no one was around. He saw me sneaking around and learned to sneak around. If he was spotted by someone he didn't know, he would think that the palace was recruiting thieves in broad daylight.

"Do you know about the Rihuiyue Studio?"

When Xu Yangyan heard the name of the place in my mouth, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, then he raised his head and looked around, and checked again and again that there was no one nearby, before lowering his voice: "How do you know this place?"

"Ying Tiansong told me."

"You went to see him?"

"Well, I went to the prison this morning."

"Why did you go to see him? Are you full? Don't you think there is not enough work in one day?"

"Don't change the subject, do you know where that place is?"

"Isn't there going to be a banquet tonight? I suggest that you better not drink. When our party is over and everyone is cleared up, I will take you to Sunhuiyue Studio."

"Why wait until night?"

"Shanbei has always been doing the patrolling of the palace. Tonight, he will have a drink when he comes to dinner. The place we are going to is the forbidden area of ​​the palace. It is not very far from the prince's palace. Shanbei is not there, so the patrolling guards must be lax, and they operate at night. It would be safer."

I raised my hand and patted Xu Yangyan's shoulder, and smiled evilly: "You are the princess's man, can I trust you?"

"I said, kindly treat it like a donkey's liver and lungs. I only helped you because I saw that we all hold the National ID Cards of the People's Republic of China."

"Okay, okay, I believe in you, can't I believe in you?"
