Han Palace, the west courtyard of the inner palace.
Located in a corner of Xiyuan, there is a courtyard covering an area of hundreds of acres. The courtyard is decorated with splendor and splendor, dotted with precious items sent as tribute from all over the place. Every piece of it is priceless.
There are dozens of palace maids and eunuchs accompanying the courtyard. They keep the courtyard looking brand new and orderly every day. The vitality of the courtyard depends on them to maintain it.
Obviously, although the King of Han did not value his only daughter very much, he still received basic treatment. Even because she was an only daughter, she was more favored than some princes.
"What? You said my father wants to see me? Or in Chengde Hall?" A girl wearing a pink dress and light pink makeup on her face asked in shock.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess, this is indeed the king's order. Please don't delay, Your Highness, and follow the villain quickly, so as not to cause the king's displeasure!" In front of the girl, a white-faced man wearing a chamberlain uniform The beardless feminine man said.
"Liu Changzai, are you lying to me? The Chengde Palace has always been a solemn place, where important matters of state affairs are discussed. My father would always scold me when I get close to him, so how could I be allowed to go there? Or in the civil and military officials. It's the right moment!" Princess Honglian opened her eyes wide, with the words "I don't believe it" flashing in her eyes.
If the man in front of her hadn't always been a favored eunuch by her father's side, who had always been at his side and rarely left, and could not be bribed by others, Princess Honglian would have thought that she had met a liar and was involved. In some conspiracy.
Don't underestimate the political IQ of any member of the royal family. They may be kind-hearted or yearn for innocence, but their sensitivity to conspiracy politics is far beyond that of ordinary people.
After all, anyone who grew up in a place full of conspiracies and intrigues and where brutal political struggles are constantly taking place will have more or less acquired some political wisdom.
"Your Highness Princess, I don't dare to lie to you! Although what you said is reasonable, Chengde Palace does not allow the harem to approach, but this time there is an exception for a reason. The envoy to South Korea this time asked to see you by name. , and also said that he was under the order of His Majesty the Emperor, so he made an exception very late and invited you to come and see him!" This eunuch, who usually has great power in the inner palace, also had a wry smile on his face, and he persuaded the man in front of him with some confusion. The little princess who wants human life.
I can't help but blame him for being anxious. It is true that King Han's order cannot be violated. Now King Han, his envoys, and all the civil and military officials are waiting in the hall. Every moment of delay consumes the patience of these important people.
And as Xuan Zhao, he was the first to bear the brunt after shouting the order and inviting Her Royal Highness to the Princess.
As the daughter of the royal family, Her Royal Highness has a distinguished status. She is also an important figure that many ministers are waiting for. Of course, she will not be reprimanded, or even have nothing to do.
But it was different for him, a lowly and rootless person. With just one or two excuses, he could knock it out of the sky and into the clouds. Maybe, as long as some competitors whisper in King Han's ears and use some tricks, King Han will be able to hate himself and think that he is ineffective and has lost Korea's face.
Therefore, in order to save time, Liu Changshi hurriedly hurriedly arrived. Originally, it was at least half an hour's journey from Chengde Palace to here, but he was forced to arrive in more than ten minutes.
Naturally, there is no need to elaborate on the hard work involved. Fortunately, he is also a martial arts master with a second-rate cultivation, so he does not care about such a little pain.
However, even so, his current condition is not very good.
Just looking at the profuse sweating all over his body, the fact that he was out of breath when he spoke, and the faint trembling all over his body, you could tell that he wasn't feeling well right now.
"Is that so? How could my father let me go to a place like Chengde Palace? It turns out that an outsider wanted to see me, but why did he want to see me? It was the order of the legendary Emperor Yuguo!" Princess Honglian suddenly realized. He nodded and blinked his wide eyes, quite puzzled.
She is just an ordinary princess in South Korea, and she has no reputation in the world. If she says it is because of her beauty, that is impossible.
As far as she knew, among other things, the princess of the Eastern Qi Kingdom was praised for her beauty, saying that her beauty was the best in the world, and she was known as the most beautiful woman in the world.
But apart from being pretty, there doesn’t seem to be anything outstanding about me!
In terms of talent, I am not as good as those students who can be seen everywhere on the street. In terms of martial arts, he is just a three-legged cat who has just entered the second-rate, and is far from a master.
So what is the reason? Let yourself be noticed by this aloof emperor!
In a daze, Princess Honglian thought of the man she had seen before. This man whom I hated so much, had single-handedly turned the world into this devastated situation.
King Jing.
It should be him!
Only he knows me and can influence the emperor.
Unconsciously, Honglian already had a guess.
"Since the princess already knows, then hurry up and follow the old slave! The kings are all waiting impatiently. If you don't go, the old slave will be blamed!" Liu Changshi looked anxious, his eyes full of pleading. .
"Well, then let's go. It's really not good to keep your father waiting for a long time!" Honglian looked at the pitiful man in front of him, knowing that every time he delayed like this, this man would be blamed more. She, who was already kind-hearted, suddenly softened.
Then, the two of them hurriedly and slowly arrived at the entrance of Chengde Hall in less than two-quarters of an hour and thirty minutes.
At this time, several servants were waiting outside the door. They were walking around anxiously, looking in the direction of Princess Honglian's residence from time to time, as if they were waiting for something.
Suddenly, I saw a pink figure appear, and I was startled. When I saw who it was, I blurted out in surprise.
"Your Highness Princess, you are finally here. The king has sent people to urge you several times, but the slaves are so anxious that they are dying!"
"Alright, alright, isn't this princess here? Why are you so anxious?" Seeing so many people waiting for her, Princess Honglian was also frightened and felt a little sorry.
"Princess, please follow the slaves into the palace!" At this time, a eunuch who looked like a leader greeted Honglian and entered the Chengde Palace.
Hong Lian had just stepped into the hall, but suddenly hundreds of eyes looked at him, causing the steps she had just raised to stay in the air, not daring to fall.
"Okay, I'm so nervous. What happened? Why are so many people looking at me?" Honglian kept asking herself in her heart, her heart beating like a deer.
