Chengwumen

The bluestone shop extends all the way to Chengwu gate. Two eight foot high stone lions stand in front of Chengwu gate. The stone lions are vigorous and have beautiful eyes inlaid with two bright night pearls. Their eyes show the majesty of overlooking the world, step on the green clouds, and their open mouth contains an unknown jade ball.

Chengwu gate connects Ziyang palace and is adjacent to Jinluan hall. The splendid gilded gate is inlaid with countless precious stones and beads. After Chengwu gate, there is a martial arts arena. The martial arts arena in the imperial palace is used by the emperor to test his martial arts officers. It is not open on weekdays. Because the prince of Linguo and Duanyu of Suzhou were born in martial arts, the emperor specially ordered people to open Chengwu gate for them to practice martial arts, I never thought that these two people dared to fight outside Chengwu today.

Walking on the bluestone Road, I heard a quarrel and scolding. Far away, the Emperor didn't really hear it. When he came near, manager Li shouted, "the emperor is coming!"

Xi mufei was shocked. He shook his hand holding the hilt of the sword, stopped the attack and bowed. Gusu Duanyu bowed his sword to the scabbard.

”Your majesty, hail! "

"Hail, your majesty!"

The emperor stared and handed a wink to manager Li. Manager Li understood that he would take away the swords in their hands and give them to the emperor.

The emperor held two valuable swords and just glanced at them. Instead, he looked at them and said, "they are both good swords. Unfortunately, the two swordsmen are too violent. Let me keep them for you two for a few days. How will they look when their hostility is eliminated in the future“

At dusk, Fei glanced at Gusu Duanyu, who was oppressed nearby, turned to the emperor and said, "what your majesty said is that some people are too violent“

Gusu Duanyu glared at Xi mufei and said, "Your Majesty is the master!" but he was willing to give up a sword.

"Manager Li, you take your two princes to my study and wait for me." the emperor smiled with satisfaction and turned and left.

Gusu Duan Yu and Xi mufei said that they were martial arts at best. At worst, they just learned Kung Fu for several years. Where would the Royal Children with delicate flesh learn martial arts? Without the sword, they even lost their momentum. They looked at each other and went to the imperial study with manager Li.

Imperial study

The emperor took a sip of tea, looked up at the two below and said, "you are both my guests. I hope you can live in peace."

"The prince of neighboring countries provoked the prince first, and the prince was just self-defense." Gusu Duanyu said faintly.

"Your Majesty clearly promised to marry Xi Yue to me, but you did something worse than pigs and dogs to Xi Yue. I beat you lightly." Xi mufei squeezed his fist and retorted angrily.

"Your Majesty's mirror, that mammy had a self-examination for the three princesses that day. How can she allow him to be so slandered." Gusu Duanyu narrowed his eyes and smiled in his heart. It was really a hairy boy who didn't care what he said.

The emperor put down his tea cup. In his deep eyes, he was shocked. He angrily denounced Xi mufei and said, "my three princesses are so pure and clean that they can't be polluted. Little prince, how can you slander the reputation of your daughter's family."

Xi mufei secretly clenched his fist in his sleeve and glared at Gusu Duanyu fiercely. That day, he heard clearly how it could be slander. He looked up at the angry emperor and said frankly, "I heard him and the queen say that the three princesses are already his people. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask the queen."

Xi mufei was also in a hurry. He didn't think about what he said. The queen was aunt Duanyu of Suzhou. He regretted that he couldn't speak for him as soon as he said it. He quickly changed his mouth and said, "the imperial concubine can testify“

The emperor's face had darkened, and the air in the imperial study was suddenly cold. Just when they thought the emperor was going to be angry, the emperor suddenly spoke.

"Xi mufei, do you know what you're talking about? It's a felony to falsely accuse Princess pan in the state of Chen. For the sake of peace between the two countries, I can not be punished, but what you said has caused a loss of reputation to my three princesses. Please take back what you just said." the emperor pressed his anger and looked at Xi mufei with a smile.

No matter whether Xiyue is perfect or not, he does not allow anyone to slander him. Xiyue is the princess of the state of Chen, which is related to the face of the state of Chen. Naturally, he wants to protect it.

"The prince didn't say anything wrong. Why should he take it back?" Xi mufei looked at the emperor unconvinced. Today he must let everyone know that Gusu Duanyu is a man.

Gusu Duanyu looked at the emperor with a smile. He saw that there were clear veins on the emperor's forehead. It was obvious that he was on the edge of rage. As long as he added another fire, ha ha!

"You... The emperor is so angry. Why is this Xi mufei so unreasonable? Is the neighboring country so educated in him? Xi Muyun is gentle, virtuous and petite. Sure enough, it's not the same mother's child or different.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince's reputation has long been bad. I don't mind being worse, but I'm really powerless for the little prince of Linguo to slander me like this. Why don't your majesty ask the imperial concubine to come and talk about the matter." Gusu Duanyu said with a smile.

Gusu Duanyu said this very well. He deliberately said he was bad, so that the Emperor didn't say anything when he wanted to refute. The Queen's assistant was busy in the back palace. Naturally, there was no air traffic control. The imperial concubine was Xiyue's aunt and was naturally willing to come forward. Just I don't know what the imperial concubine would say!

The emperor looked at Gusu Duan Yu, eh! It was just like the demeanor of a prince of heaven. He spoke and did things in an orderly manner. Then he looked at the red faced Xi mufei. He couldn't get into his eyes. He was frivolous, slovenly, irritable and what was the difference between him and a bitch.

"Manager Li!" the emperor shouted out.

Manager Li guarded the door of the imperial study. When he heard the emperor's call, he quickly pushed the door in and went to the emperor to listen to his orders.

"You ask someone to invite the imperial concubine over!" glancing at the emperor, manager Li said.

Manager Li went out of the imperial study, his eyes fell on Xiaoquanzi who was sweeping the floor, and waved to him with a smile.

"Manager, what can I do for you?" Xiaoquanzi put down his broom and came to manager Li.

"I think you're smart. Please invite the imperial concubine and remember to pick a good one to say, okay?" manager Li said, staring at Xiaoquanzi.

"I'll remember the instructions of the manager and never betray my life!" Xiaoquanzi said and ran outside.

The imperial concubine gave him many benefits to keep an eye on things in the imperial study. Just now, he was thinking about how to inform the imperial concubine. Unexpectedly, manager Li asked him to invite the imperial concubine. He was happy and went to Qingyan palace.

Xiaoquanzi's feet are fast. In a short time, he has arrived outside Qingyan palace and walked into Qingyan palace. Qingyan palace tonight is quiet and strange. It is reasonable that the palace maids and eunuchs should watch outside at this time, but there is not even a small eunuch at the gate of the palace. The more he goes inside, the more he feels strange.

It's strange that half a person can't be seen in the whole palace! At this time, the imperial concubine and empress should have not rested. How can they be so quiet? There must be demons if they are abnormal.

Xiaoquanzi walked inside with light steps. He was careful at every step. He didn't even dare to breathe loudly. He walked into the inner garden step by step.
