Chapter 904: Become famous in one fell swoop

Chapter 904: Become famous in one fell swoop

The weather was nice on the second day. The sun, which had been dull all winter, seemed to be three times brighter, which also indicated that spring was not far away.

After dinner, the two carriages of the Li family entered the city one after the other.

The first car took Wan'er, her son and Jiayin, along with Chunxiu, Shuiling and Shuiyun.

Originally, Aunt He wanted to follow, but Jiayin felt sorry for her because she was old, so she left her at home to guard the princess's mansion.

The second car contained Jiayin’s luggage.

Arrived in front of the Earl's Mansion, Wan'er hugged the child and reluctantly entered.

The carriage then continued on its way to the palace.

In front of the palace gate, the Marquis was wearing a navy blue robe and a black cloak, waiting in the cold wind.

Seeing the carriage arrive, he took two steps forward and picked up his daughter.

Jiayin hugged the little fox and asked in surprise, "Father, do you want to accompany me to the palace?"

The Marquis smiled and nodded, "I happen to have something to do and I need to come over to ask the Emperor for instructions. I will wait for you to enter the palace together."

Of course Jiayin knew this was an excuse. His adoptive father must have been waiting here on purpose.

So, her eyes were smiling like crescent moons, so cute.

At this time, two young eunuchs ran over from a distance and quickly saluted and said: "Princess, my servant is from Zhilan Palace. As instructed by Her Majesty the Princess, I have been waiting here for the past few days. Please come with us, Princess." Enter the palace!"

Jiayin nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Shui Ling hurried forward, using the pretext of asking what to do with the suitcases, and then stuffed a purse into each of the two young eunuchs.

The two little eunuchs pinched the hard silver beans in their purses and suddenly became enthusiastic.

A young **** called to the imperial guard guarding the door to help carry the box, while the other led the way.

The Marquis saw this and felt a little more relieved.

In this way, the group of people walked slowly in and successfully passed the palace gate. Just as they were about to take a step, there was a sudden commotion behind them.

It turns out that there are several Imperial Guards on duty, and they must check the luggage in the box.

Logically speaking, everything entering the palace must be inspected. This is a rule.

But Jiayin was the princess and was escorted by the Marquis. The princess even sent someone to greet her.

The Forbidden Army is just for inspection, which is just a simple matter of opening the box and taking a look.

It just so happened that these imperial guards didn’t know where they got the courage, or who had the instigation behind them.

Not only did they open the box and plan to look through it carefully, they even picked out a coat with a long gun, like a flag, and looked at it proudly.

Jiayin is a girl, and there are some private clothes in the box.

If everything is found out and exposed to the public, what kind of reputation will there be for innocence in the future? !

Shui Ling and Shui Yun's eyes turned red at that time, and they rushed forward to take back their master's coat.

But someone is faster than them!

I saw a flash of white light, and the soldier holding his shirt screamed, covering his face and rolling around on the ground.

Everyone was startled and looked over quickly.

The one who took action was not a human, but a little fox!

Three hairs all over his body exploded. He shook his claws hard, and a string of blood beads rolled on the snow, which was very obvious.

It bared its teeth and screamed, then took the coat in its mouth and put it back in the box.

At this moment, apart from the screams at the palace gate, everyone seemed to have their necks strangled!

Such a fluffy, white little fox, I originally thought it was a well-behaved pet.

Who would have thought that it would be such a powerful killer!

When you take out your claws, you will see blood!

One of the imperial guards tightened their grip on the spear and shouted to everyone to catch the fox.

The hundred personal guards of the Hou Mansion were originally stationed quietly not far away because they could not follow the palace.

At this moment, seeing the Marquis returning with a solemn face, everyone rushed over, their footsteps rumbling like heavy thunder. Although the swords of all the guards were not unsheathed, their hands had already grasped the handles of the swords.

They have been fighting with the barbarians for many years, and the iron-blooded spirit they have developed cannot be compared to the guard-dog-like Forbidden Army!

The lieutenant on duty was so frightened that his face turned pale. He tried to muster the courage to ask, "What are you doing, Lord Marquis? Are you planning to rebel?"

The Marquis didn't even give him a spare look, and coldly ordered his guards, "These people must have an agenda to deliberately humiliate Princess Kangle and provoke me.

“Take these people into custody and don’t let them commit suicide.

“In addition, entry and exit through the palace gates are prohibited, and we are waiting for the emperor’s instructions!”

“Yes, Lord Marquis!” the guards responded with a roar.

Then, he quickly removed the dozens of guards at the door, whether they were captains or soldiers, and took them all to their knees in the snow!

Some people who wanted to enter the palace in the distance were so shocked that they did not dare to breathe after witnessing everything in the carriage.

In the palace gate, there are more than a dozen wardrooms next to the courtyard walls on both sides. Officials from the six departments will take turns to handle official business here on weekdays, ready for the emperor to call at any time.

At this moment, when I heard the noise, four or five officials came out at once, not knowing what was going on.

But the obvious pool of blood on the snow, the screaming soldiers, and the "zongzi" kneeling in a row made them all change their expressions.

Is it a palace change? !

They were even more confused when they saw that Marquis Xinting was blocking the north wind with his big cloak and protecting a little girl as he walked in.

Would a person who undergoes a palace change be so leisurely and calm? !

Jiayin took the handkerchief and was wiping the little fox's paws. She scolded the little fox and said, "Next time, don't show your paws like this. It's a good thing to teach bad people a lesson, but I don't need you!"

“I originally wanted to use you as a secret weapon, but in the end, you actually became famous!”

The little fox shrank his neck, his black bean-like eyes rolling around, looking aggrieved.

His little head doesn’t understand. He is loyal to his Lord, so why is he still making mistakes?

But Mr. Hou said something fair, "Three things have been done well, and this will be the way it should be in the future."

The little fox immediately became energetic and wagged its big tail proudly.

Unfortunately, it was suppressed by the master after only a few shakes.

"You are a fox, not a puppy. Why are you wagging your tail?" Jiayin stroked the little fox, then turned to ask her adoptive father, "Father, are you in trouble if you just do this?"

The Marquis shook his head, glanced around and saw no one around, and said, "The emperor has long wanted to use the imperial army, but he has never had an excuse.

“What happened today is probably that person who wants to test me and give you a warning.

"I went to talk to the emperor and took advantage of this opportunity to clean up the imperial army."

Jiayin couldn't help but laugh, "Does this count as stealing chicken but losing rice?"

Hou Ye rubbed her hair and told her, "So, you don't have to be afraid of anything, and don't wrong yourself.

"That person's power has been greatly reduced now, so he can only use some small means."

“I understand, foster father.” The good news was answered.

They happened to reach a fork in the road, and she said, "I'll go find the third princess first, and I'll go see the emperor's uncle with her later."

“Okay.” Mr. Hou nodded.

Father and daughter soon separated and went their separate ways.

The third princess stood at the door of Zhilan Palace, almost stretching her neck.

Her personal maid, whose surname was Hao, advised her at this moment, "Princess, it's cold here, so you'd better go back and have a sip of hot tea."

The third princess refused, and said impatiently: "You can go back if you want, I have to wait for good news!"

Mammy Hao was helpless. No slave could go back to enjoy the blessings. The one who left the master here to drink the wind would have no choice but to freeze together.

Fortunately, after a while, Jiayin arrived with Shui Ling and Shui Yun.
