its 340: the influence of becoming a doorkeeper
Cangqu hasn't appeared for a long time. This sudden appearance shocked the star.
"Shut your mouth and stay where it's cool." Cheng Xingxing gave him a fierce sentence.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking." Cang Qu said with a smile. Don't do anything stupid. This matter can't be changed by anyone or any force. You are taking a risk by doing this.
"You don't have to take care of my business." Cheng Xingxing said, "And aren't you also waiting for such an opportunity? I'm done. You're free."
"It's fine, but when you regret it, don't forget that I reminded you." Cangqu said.
"This is my life. I walked on the bright road or fell into the bottomless abyss. As long as I make my own decision, I have no regrets." Cheng Xingxing answered firmly.
Cangqu was silent.
"The princess has collected a lot of your poems and songs at hand, and she often takes them out to appreciate them, and she will be amazed every time." Chen Xiaoxia then praised her as a star.
"Can you do me a favor?" Cheng Xingxing suddenly interrupted his praise. Chen Xiaoxia smiled and said, "No, it's my honor to help you. Tell me, what are you doing?"
"Help me enter the palace." Cheng Xingxing whispered, "I want to see Princess Qingshu."
"Qing..." Chen Xiaoxia looked at Cheng Xing in surprise, lowered her head and lowered her voice and said, "Are you crazy? Meet Princess Qingshu in the palace? Well, can a bodyguard help you? Besides, what did you see her for?
"Nan alone, just say if you can help me with this." Cheng Xing's question.
"I dare not promise you." Chen Xiaoxia shook her head repeatedly, "But I can help you see our princess. If... if you want to sneak into the palace to see Princess Qingshu, you can ask our princess for help in person.
"It's okay." The star nodded.
"When are you going to go?" Chen Xiaoxia asked in a low voice.
"The sooner the better."
"That's it." After thinking about it, Chen Xiaoxia agreed. However, the ugly words are ahead. I'm just helping you meet our princess. As for if you want to go to the palace to see someone else, you have to discuss it with our princess yourself. Of course, our princess admires you very much, a great talent, but if you are just perfunctory to her, I'm afraid..."
"I understand." Cheng Xingxing nodded.
"Well, let's go now." Chen Xiaoxia said she would do it. She got up and paid the tea bill. She pulled the star out and left.
He untied a strong horse on a tling stake on the roadside not far away, rode it with Cheng Ming, extended the street and ran for more than half an hour before arriving at the solemn and majestic royal city.
The royal city is located in the center of Yunshu City, the imperial capital. It is one-third the size of Yunshu City, the wall is more than ten meters high, and the gate is extremely majestic. But Cheng Xingxing was not in a mood to appreciate these at this time, but was just anxious about how to get into it.
The palace is different from the Yunjian Palace. Although the star can easily enter it, in case it is found, the matter will become very serious. At that time, not to mention Su Waner's way to help her, even the star and the divine door will be difficult to protect themselves. So becoming a star dares not take this risk.
Fortunately, I met Chen Xiaoxia, otherwise, even if I had to take risks, I would have to try to become a star.
Chen Xiaoxia leaned against a waist card of the Forbidden Palace and took Cheng Xing into the royal city from a side door. Naturally, the gatekeeper had to investigate, but Chen Xiaoxia moved out Su Huier: "This is the imperial capital talent seen by the princess. If you have any questions, you can ask the princess yourself!"
The princess spoke, and naturally no one dared not to listen, so the gatekeepers retreated one after another. However, this does not mean that the defense of the royal city is lax. Although they retreated, they immediately remember who brought someone into the palace on a certain day of a certain month, and who was ordered, and then they would immediately verify it.
These are all what Chen Xiaoxia said to Cheng Xingxing along the way. He is a rude person and doesn't have so much knowledge, so he doesn't know what to talk about with Cheng Xingxing. He simply picks up the ready-made one and says what he encounters.
"The rules in the palace are as many as the stars in the sky." Chen Xiaoxia said, "Don't look at it on the surface that it seems to be no different from ordinary officials. It's all the superiors who bow their heads and walk away as soon as their faces sink, but in fact, there are many things that work behind them. If you are not careful, you are still a popular person in front of the car today, and you will be confessed to a crime in a prison tomorrow.
"The imperial city is a terrible place, which has been like this since ancient times." Cheng Xingxing looked around and remembered the terrain, and replied casually.
"It's as if you know more about the royal family." Chen Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Yes, you learned people are all known for 800 years after five hundred years. It is good to read more. However, it's useless for people like me to read more books. What I read today will be forgotten before dinner is over.
Cheng Xing thought: Then we really have to shake hands.
Under the leadership of Chen Xiaoxia, Cheng Mingxing quickly came to a palace that was not eye-catching in the royal city. He entered the palace and greeted only a few old maids. The whole hall also looked half new and not angry at all. Chen Xiaoxia took him all the way to a side hall. After inviting the maid of honor to come in and communicate, the two waited outside the hall.
"It seems that..." Cheng Xing star frowned as he looked around.
"Don't seem like it, that's it." Chen Xiaoxia guessed his idea and shook her head and sighed, "The emperor said that there is no empty house in this palace, so let our princess live in the cold palace of the concubine first. Otherwise, how can I enter the royal city at will if I am a man? This is just the most remote place on the periphery of the royal city, and no one cares about it. But if I want to go in again, I won't. That's why I said that you have to discuss it with our princess.
"Why are you holding her so close?" Cheng Xingxing shook his head puzzledly, "Isn't it good for everyone to let her go back to Muzhou?"
"Who knows?" Chen Xiaoxia shook her head, "Our princess has begged the emperor several times, but the emperor just won't let her out of the palace."
Cheng Xingxing vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this, but there was something wrong with him. He couldn't say it. After he couldn't think about it carefully, a maid of honor had run out and said breathlessly, "Master, please!"
Chen Xiaoxia pushed him: "How's it going? I didn't lie to you. Our princess has great admiration for you now. She must be very excited to hear that you are coming. Come on, let's go!" With that, he pulled the star and ran in, but was stopped by the maid of honor: "The princess didn't tell you to go in!"
Chen Xiaoxia stuck out her tongue: "Brother, you can go by yourself. I'm waiting for your good news outside."
Cheng Xing also waved his hand at him and followed the maid in.
"Master of the door!" When she saw Chengxing, Su Huier, who was still sitting in the chair, immediately stood up excitedly and came to the front a few steps. Looking at Chengxing, she didn't know what to say, which made the star extremely embarrassed. He laughed twice and said, "How is your Highness?"
"It's not good." Su Huier smiled and pointed around and said, "I'm trapped in an old cage, but I can't imagine it. That's all. But fortunately, they got these things for me.
With that, he picked up a book from the table beside him and handed it to the star.
Cheng Xingxing took it and looked at it and found that it was full of Tang poetry and Song poetry, as well as lyrics and music scores. At that time, he was immediately shocked and hurriedly closed the book and read the book cover. It was clearly written on it.
"I..." Cheng Xing took a breath of cold air and thought to himself: Isn't it? Even the book came out? Is it so awesome?
Looking more carefully, I saw "Tianyin Bookstore, Shenmiaomen Supervision Seal, Sixth Edition" written on the bottom of the cover.
How about having fun? This is fun, right? Cheng Xingxing's head was in a cold sweat: The sixth edition... How many books can be published on the other side of the earth to the sixth edition? This is a popular book that can't be sold out any more, right? Return the divine door supervision seal, does it mean that... it was made by Xiaoya's girl again?
Thinking of this, Cheng Xingxing's gratitude to Shu Xiaoya immediately flowed like a surging river. He couldn't help but be secretly glad that he had such a good secretary as Shu Xiaoya.
"Does the master seem to be surprised?" Su Huier asked curiously, "Is this book... stolen by a profiteer?"
"No, no." Cheng Xingxing waved his hand in a hurry, "I just didn't expect that my secretary would print these things into a book."
"Secretary?" Su Huier was stunned.
"That's..." Cheng Xingxing grinned and had to explain the position of secretary to Su Huier. Su Huier smiled and said, "It's worthy of being the first talent of Tianyin. You can even think of such an interesting title."
Cheng Xing wants to explain that this is not his own originality, but considering that in this way, it will take half a day to explain the source, he simply smiles and takes the honor for himself. It's nothing. Anyway, this is what travelers do the most.
"I really can't imagine it." Taking that book and holding it in her hand like a treasure, Su Huier couldn't help bowing her head and sighing: "I think I'm the most talented in the world, but I didn't expect that there is someone outside, and there is a you in the world... I really can't believe that there are people in this world who have such talent. What's more amazing is that you are not old now. At the age of 20, I really can't imagine how old you have been writing poems since you were.
"This..." Cheng Ming thought it was a problem, but it was not a problem. He smiled brazenly again: "Don't praise me so much, I... In fact, most of the time I just drink a little and write casually. It really makes me sit down quietly. Sometimes I may not be able to write anything."
"Do whatever you want after drinking?" Su Huier smiled and said, "Genius is really different." In ancient times, sages were lonely, but only drinkers kept their names.' Isn't it?"
"Ah..." Cheng Xingxing smiled and thought about how to talk to her about seeing Su Wan'er.
"This song 'Jianjinjiu', when you read it out, shocked all the talented women present. At that time, we didn't even know when you left. This is the only poem that was repeated in our minds." Su Huier sighed, "For the first time in my life, I have this feeling, a feeling of being conquered by poetry, a feeling of chills and trembling all over my body. Master, I... I really don't know how to express my respect for you... I really want to visit you again. I really want to learn more from you, but unfortunately, my father's edict later called me back to this lonely palace... If it hadn't been for your peerless work to accompany me, I really didn't know if I would have survived. These long days."
"Ah..." Cheng Xingxing nodded and thought about how he saw Su Wan'er.
