Chapter 458
458 High-profile entrance (3 in 1)
“This is my daughter!” He said.
Yingying frowned, picked up the bell, and placed it on her lap.
“Don’t tell me she doesn’t look like me?” His aunt was a little unhappy.
How does she look like you? she looks completely unrelated to you … The old lady’s smiling face froze for a moment before she recovered and said with a gentle smile, ”
on closer look, their eyes do look similar. My eyes were bad.
Yes, his eyes and brows were similar to the coachman outside.
Nothing was said along the way.
Xu Pingzhi’s carriage arrived near the stargazing tower. He first heard a wave of noise, turned around the street, and saw a sea of people.
He scanned the crowd and saw at least one to two thousand people. And this was only a small portion of the common people. One could imagine how many people there were with the stargazing tower as the center. It was an appalling number.
“This is even more lively than the Spring Festival …” Xu Pingzhi pulled the reins and stopped the carriage outside.
“Why did you stop?” His aunt’s voice came from the carriage.
“There’s no road ahead, it’s full of people.” “Let’s get off here,” Xu Pingzhi explained.
The aunt rolled up the window and got out of the carriage with the help of her husband. Xu lingyue also got out of the carriage with the help of her father. The little bean was carried down by Xu Pingzhi.
The old lady furrowed her brows. Usually, when she got off the carriage, the maidservants would bring a small wooden bench to welcome her, so she was not used to it.
Fortunately, the carriage was simple and crude, and the bottom of the carriage was not high above the ground. It was unlike her luxurious carriage made of gold Phoebe Wood, which could reach the waist of a person.
She jumped off the carriage with ease.
Xu Pingzhi beckoned to a Royal saber guard by the street and ordered, “”Take care of the carriage.”
As he spoke, he flashed his Royal blade guard waist token.
yes! the young saber guard replied respectfully.
Xu Pingzhi led his wife and child around the crowd and walked toward the passage cleared out by the Imperial Army. The two sides of the passage were filled with Imperial Army soldiers, blocking the commoners and forming a “safe passage” specially for the high officials and nobles.
Two Imperial Army soldiers blocked Xu Pingzhi’s path with their Spears.
Xu Pingzhi took out the waist token given by Xu Qi ‘an. The Imperial Guards took a look at it and let him in.
ningyan’s status is getting higher and higher now, ” the aunt said happily, “”Master, I never dreamed that I would be sitting together with the officials and nobles of the capital.”
Xu niannian couldn’t help but eat a lemon and snorted. “Mother, you’ll become the wife of the executioner in the future.”
“Think about how you’re going to stay in the capital first,” Xu Pingzhi said as he backstabbed.
Xu niannian suddenly became listless.
According to the Academy, they wanted him to go to Qingzhou, far away from the capital, and achieve his grand plan.
However, Xu niannian didn’t really want to go. If he went to Qingzhou, it meant that he would be far away from his parents, elder brothers, and younger sisters. If he couldn’t return to the capital after his three-year term ended, he would have to work in another place for another three years.
For three years, he could only see his family when he returned to the capital to report on his work.
Of course, there was another reason. If he couldn’t enter the Hanlin Academy, he would basically be cutting off his path to the inner Pavilion.
His father’s ‘my son resigned from his position as the old chief advisor’ had become empty talk.
After walking through the ” safe passage “, the family looked up and saw the huge square with many pergola. Civil officials, military generals, and nobles sat in their respective areas in an orderly and distinct manner.
In addition, there were also many noble ladies and young ladies who had basically brought their families to watch the battle.
To these noble ladies, Da Feng’s face was secondary. The most important thing was to watch the show.
Xu Pingzhi glanced around as he led his wife and children to the area where the Yamen was located. The person sitting in the main seat was dressed in green, and his hair was white.
There were golden gongs on both sides of him, and behind the Golden gongs was the silver one. The copper one was arranged to be on duty and was not qualified to stay under the pergola to watch the show.
Xu Pingzhi brought his wife and son closer, cupped his hands, and quickly took his seat with his wife and unfamiliar woman.
The famous Wei Yuan and Jin Luo ignored him, which made second uncle Xu heave a sigh of relief. It was better to be invisible.
The old lady heaved a sigh of relief. It was great to be invisible.
………..
Among these pergola, the most luxurious one was a lounge wrapped in yellow silk. At the bottom of the pergola were tables, and the members of the royal family and the Imperial clan sat by the tables.
The Empress and concubine Chen, who had fought in the inner palace until their brains almost spilled out, also came. Everyone was talking and laughing as if they had always been harmonious sisters, without any grievances.
The four princesses were all present. Huaiqing sat at the head of the table, while Feng Jiu sat beside her.
Among the princes, the Crown Prince was still under house arrest, but the rest of the princes had all come.
To the royal family, this battle was not just a show. It was also a matter of the Imperial court’s and the royal family’s reputation.
where is Xu Qi. an? why isn’t he out yet? can he fight the bald donkeys? how do the bald donkeys plan to fight …
Lin ‘an chattered non-stop, her watery peach eyes looking everywhere. She didn’t see her dog slave and suddenly felt a little discouraged.
“Hanging!”
The seventh Prince shook his head. that Xu Qi ‘an is a martial artist. How can he fight against the Buddhist sect? ” Besides, can he really deal with it with his weak cultivation?”
“Unless the Buddhists compete with him in poetry,” the third Prince chimed in with a smile.
The two princesses and the princes couldn’t help but laugh.
Lin ‘an was furious. He fiercely swept his gaze over his brother and sister and scolded, “”You’re happy that he lost? Do you want bengong to cast a Buddha statue for each of you?”
The third Princess frowned. we are just talking. Lin ‘an, what are you doing? ”
The rest of the princes frowned.
