Chapter 253 The Palace Inner Palace
Some people say that every inch of land in the imperial city is valuable, and it is true that some land in the imperial city can indeed be paved with gold bricks.
However, the most expensive land in the imperial city, besides the priceless palace, is Na'anji District. This land is even more precious among the precious gold. Countless wealthy merchants want to ask for a seat, but they still lack some power.
Yes, the people living here are the most powerful people in power in the court today. If you accidentally knock them down here, you may be a high-ranking official and may be imprisoned.
In Zhao Mansion, two stone lions stood at the door of the mansion, lanterns hung high, the courtyard of the mansion was exquisite, the long silhouette of the small bridge, and the strange stone arches all showed the wealth of this family.
But I saw the maids in the mansion walking through the house, and saw the man in the mansion wearing a red sandalwood window and wooden wing room. However, I saw that the man in the Zhao mansion was just middle-aged, with a little white hair, but still showed his handsomeness when he was young.
"Master, the time is almost over!" An old man like a housekeeper waited on the side.
"Well, go and notify the lady, we are going to set off!" Mr. Zhao was dressed in a tidy manner, dressed in a civil servant.
"Miss is ready and has been waiting in the room for a long time!"
"Every time I enter the palace, I am more active than me. It's really a girl who is older than me, alas!" Mr. Zhao shook his head, but felt relieved.
The sedan chair servant in the mansion was already waiting, but saw that the Zhao family had arrived. The Zhao family also dressed in a special dress and was particularly beautiful. A tender blue dress and white pearl earrings made people feel particularly fresh.
"Xian'er greets her father!" Zhao Xian'er dignifiedly gave her father.
Mr. Zhao caresses Heihu, who is not very long, nodded and said, "Xian'er, every time you enter the palace, you are more active than your father. Dad almost feels that he is not an important official in the court, but you are!"
Zhao Xian'er's face turned slightly red and said, "Dad seems to not like Xian'er to go to the palace with you, so Xian'er won't go!"
"Oh, then you can go with your mother to burn incense later. Just go alone!"
"Dad, you..." Zhao Xian'er was shy, anxious and angry.
"Okay, okay, I want to see the third prince again. Look at you like this, I don't know how long my dad can stay!" Mr. Zhao smiled and pointed at Zhao Xian'er.
"Nowhere is there? Xian'er just wants to enter the palace to have fun. Let dad enter the palace alone without being so bored!"
"That's really my filial and good daughter, okay. Then just treat it as making my father not that boring alone!" Mr. Zhao smiled helplessly when he saw his daughter's stubbornness.
The sedan chair has already set off and heads from the Zhao Mansion to the palace.
The imperial palace, the core building complex of the entire imperial city, the great empire, the center of wealth and power, the place where the emperor lives, and the place where all officials worship.
The wall of the imperial palace was more than ten feet high, not inferior to the wall of the imperial city. The city gate was strictly guarded by the imperial guards. All officials and figures inside and outside the palace had waist cards or passes to enter, without any exception, even the left prime minister and the right prime minister were no exception.
This is the Forbidden Palace City, the residence of the royal family. The sedan chair of the Zhao Mansion has entered the Forbidden Palace City, and the sedan chair comes to the inner palace city. It took an hour to walk, and it can be seen that the Forbidden Palace City is amazing.
The inner palace city, where the emperor lives, is also where the harem is located. There are the Interior Palace, the Jinyiwei, the Imperial House, the Prince's Hall, the Concubine Hall, etc., a large group of buildings.
Today, the Zhao family was invited to visit the Empress Dowager. The Zhao family was the top scholar in the Jin Academy eight years ago. After high school, he took the family to the imperial city. Since then, he has been in the journey of life smoothly and has been in the current position of Minister of Revenue.
The Zhao family's master Zhao Ziling was deeply loved by the Empress Dowager because of his extensive knowledge. Zhao Ziling's daughter Zhao Xianer was even more popular with the Empress Dowager. Since she was a child, Zhao Xianer showed extraordinary talent for talent and seemed to inherit Zhao Ziling's talent. Zhao Xianer, who was in her teens, was able to recite poems with civil servants of the dynasty, and even won several former top scholars in the Jin Academy, and her talent was amazing.
At first, the Empress Dowager liked to summon Zhao Ziling very much, and specifically told Zhao Ziling to bring Xian'er to come. Zhao Xian'er also grew up slowly. Under the deliberate arrangement of the Empress Dowager, Zhao Xian'er met the third prince in the palace. The talent and knowledge of the third prince were comparable to that of Zhao Xian'er. After two of them, the third prince finally won. Zhao Xian'er has always appreciated the talent and knowledge of the third prince, and even more appreciated the feelings of the third prince for worrying about the country and the people.
Therefore, since he was a child, Zhao Xianer hoped to assist the third prince. The third prince also had that affection for Xianer, but the two of them had never revealed it, but many people knew it well, and even Zhao Ziling saw it and enjoyed it in his heart. The third prince was also a satisfied son-in-law, a royal prince, with a good personality, full of talent, and a responsibility to the world. It seemed that all this was taken for granted. Zhao Xianer often followed her father into the palace, met the third prince, discussed poetry, and chatted with the world.
As he said that, the Zhao family father and daughter entered the inner palace. Zhao Ziling had already gone to the Empress Dowager's bedroom, while Zhao Xian'er's sedan chair had already gone to the Third Prince's bedroom.
In the inner palace, the scenery is picturesque, with lakes and ponds, gathering the skilled craftsmen in the world to create this wonder of the world. Zhao Xian'er's sedan chair had already landed in front of the third prince's bedroom. Zhao Xian'er walked off the sedan chair in a leisurely manner. At this time, the eunuch at the door saw that it was Zhao Xian'er, as if he had seen an acquaintance, and was busy running into the courtyard: "Miss Xian'er is here, prince, Miss Xian'er is here!"
But the voice disappeared in the mansion for a while, and the third prince came to the door of the bedroom. The third prince, a snow-white gold-edged dress, was not only talented and knowledgeable, but also a handsome man in the world. The third prince stood at the door and saw Zhao Xianer falling down from the sedan chair, and greeted him respectfully: "I don't know if Miss Xianer is here, she is in a position to welcome her, and she is in a disrespectful manner!"
Zhao Xian'er smiled and said, "The third prince is so polite. Xian'er comes with her father today. I will visit the third prince and take the initiative to disturb her before she takes the liberty!"
"Why do you take the initiative? I can't ask for anything? When Miss Xian'er comes, she suddenly shines brightly in her humble residence. Come on, please come and invite me first, and taste the new Yunwu tea I asked someone to find recently!" The third prince Binbin politely asked for a request.
Zhao Xian'er nodded slightly and moved her lotus steps into the bedroom. It took her a day or two to meet the third prince, not a year or two, and there was no need for too much etiquette.
The bedroom still looked so familiar. The porcelain that the third prince liked and the handwritten paintings she gave were hanging in the most conspicuous position. `````````````
