Chapter 37: Face Saint

Shi was moved by my promise, and he was extremely happy and said to Guizhi: "Come and thank Goro."

Guizhi came to me and imitated the three ladies to say deeply to me, "Thank you, Master Five."

I quickly waved my hand: "How could my aunt salute my nephew? This is not something I can do." In fact, Guizhi seems to be a few years older than me. Shi Dong, this old girl, has eaten it, but it is not a strange flower and grass. It seems that it is mainly to want a son.

The eldest lady pulled Schi to the side and asked in a low voice: "Why has the fifth brother become the most respectable person?"

Schi said: "It's hard to say, you'd better take a break first."

At this time, a guard came to report: "The former deputy commander of the imperial court, Lord Huang Yifei, came to the door to ask for a meeting."

Schi said: "Didn't you tell him that the old man is not here?"

The guard said, "I said that, but Lord Huang said he was going to see the fifth young master."

Schiqi said, "Goro? Please come in." After saying that, he still muttered, "What did he do when he sees Goro?"

Shi Fei said: "Is it for Goro's...?"

Schi said: "You mean your father has met the emperor? Is it so fast?"

Shi Dong laughed and said, "I think it's almost the same, otherwise why didn't Lord Huang force himself to break through this time and call him Tongbing?" He was in a mood to joke as soon as he got up.

Soon, the guard led Huang Yifei to walk slowly. Huang Yifei was indeed a bit strange today. He was so tight that he had to look polite, and his expression was very stiff. Shi Chi came up and bowed, "Why is Mr. Huang doing my house?"

Huang Yifei smiled and said, "Yes, I'm here to congratulate the fifth son of General Shi's family."

Schi and others exchanged glances with each other, and Schi asked, "I don't know why I am happy?"

Huang Yifei said: "The fifth prince was summoned by the Emperor, and I am here to pass the order."

This time, Shi Chi knew it clearly and said, "My Goro is still a commoner and has no fame. How could he have this honor?"

Huang Yifei said: "That's why we congratulate General Shi. The emperor personally summoned the commoner, which is unprecedented."

Schid said: "I wonder when I will go to the Ministry of Rites to perform rituals?"

Huang Yifei waved his hand and said, "No need, go now."

Shi Chi was a little surprised now, because the Hong Lie Empire had a clear regulation that even if local officials who made special contributions came to Beijing, they had to go to the Ministry of Rites to perform for three days if they wanted to meet the saint. One was to show the emperor's majesty, and the other was to be afraid that someone would make a joke in the Golden Palace. Shi Chi said: "This...if the emperor is abrupt, the dog son will not be able to afford to be guilty."

Huang Yifei immediately said impatiently: "This is the emperor's personal order. Even if the son has any unqualified parts, the emperor will not care about it."

Schi pulled me aside and said, "Since that's the case, then go."

Stilyang also walked over and said, "Fifth brother, remember, after seeing the emperor, you should talk less and ask less, and answer whatever the emperor asked."

I asked: "What is the emperor's personality?"

Stilyan said: "It's quite majestic."

I asked again, "What does he look like?"

Stilyang said, "I have only seen it from afar at several feasts of ministers. You should ask Dad and Grandfather and others for this question." He said, "No, you will know when you see him later? You are the first one among our brothers to have such honor."

I said, "Thank you for your reminder, brother." It seems that after all, Stilyang is still afraid that I will make trouble.

Everyone sent us outside the door, and more than a dozen people from the God-Binding Guard were waiting there, each holding their horses, and their uniform gray and black clothes made people feel a little awkward: Although these people were wearing the same clothes, they were tall and low, fat and thin, all of them were 40 years old, and their expressions were exactly the same - they were all serious and were silenced with three points of solemnity. The people who stood on the street looked cold and lifeless. The guards of the Shi Mansion looked at them, with a little resentment but nine points of envy. Those who could enter the God-Binding Guard were all top experts. Who wouldn't envy the Soldier King?

Huang Yifei waved his hand and someone led the horse over. Huang Yifei said, "Please, the fifth son."

I rush my feet and jumped onto the back of the horse. Huang Yifei saw at a glance that I was not good at equestrianism, and he turned the corner of his mouth upwards and said, "Let's go."

Farewell to the Shi family, Huang Yifei led the way in front of him, and the group walked silently. I looked around and saw that the person beside me had arrived at Shi's Mansion with Huang Yifei last time, so I had nothing to say and said, "Is this great man's surname?"

The man said with a blank expression: "Don't your surname Deng." I looked at the man on the right again. The man didn't wait for me to ask, and the man just popped up a word: "Wang."

"Uh..." I hit a soft nail and simply stopped talking.

Huang Yifei turned around and glanced at me with gloating, and whipped the horse's butt. The team immediately got up. I followed them to the gate of the palace. The imperial guards opened the gate of the imperial city and rode forward half a mile to the inner city. Huang Yifei then dismounted and turned to me and said, "The God-Binding Guard can ride to the inner city. This is the emperor's special grace. If the fifth prince has the chance to be called alone next time, don't make any taboos."

I knew he was showing off the privileges of the God-Binding Guard to me, and heyran said, "So I'm taking advantage of Lord Huang this time."

Huang Yifei was not polite, and took me through an empty square, climbed dozens of steps and then down, stopped by a corner gate, and said, "Let's wait here for now, someone will take you in later."

I stood on the steps and took the opportunity to look at the imperial city of Honglie Empire. I didn't feel anything when I ran all the way. When I calmed down, I saw that the entire palace was lined with blue bricks, red tiles and huge rafters, which was different from the style of the Women's Kingdom. Moreover, the buildings all have one characteristic, that is, the houses and palaces were particularly far away. Looking back and forth, it took at least 10 minutes. Looking through the corner gate, there were overlapping buildings inside, and there were some clouds and mountains and mists. The houses and palaces were originally built by people, but the palace of Honglie Empire was as natural as if they were standing there on the day of heaven and earth. When people stayed here, they only felt that the heaven and earth were so big that they were small, and they were lost and resurrected, as if they could absorb the power of the palace to create the world.

Seeing that I could see it, Huang Yifei said, "This palace has been designed and rebuilt by the emperor himself, and is more than twice as large as before."

I nodded and said, "The Emperor is indeed rapeseed."

At this time, an eunuch walked out of the corner gate, wearing a colorful python robe, and seemed to have a good grade. Huang Yifei was very respectful when he saw this person, and pointed at me and said, "Eunuch Li, I have brought the person. I wonder where the emperor is going to meet him?"

But Eunuch Li seemed to ignore him, looked at me with a smile on his face, pulled my hand and rubbed it carefully, "Is this the major general of Marshal Shi's family? Oh, he is indeed a handsome talent."

I got goose bumps and pulled my hands back and said, "I'm not a general."

Eunuch Li smiled and said, "What's the problem? Let the emperor give you one."

Huang Yifei felt that he had been treated coldly, and saw that Eunuch Li was inappropriate in his words, so he coughed and repeated, "Eunuch Li, don't know where the emperor summoned him?"

Only then did Eunuch Li wake up and hold his forehead with his hand and said, "Where is summoning me? Isn't the emperor here?"

Everyone followed his fingers and saw a group of people standing in the corner gate outside a hall, the leader was wearing a big red robe and looking at each other. Huang Yifei was shocked and said, "Master?" After that, he hurriedly rushed over, and the God-Binding Guard followed closely, knelt in front of the man in red, saying, "Long live."

Seeing that I was still in a daze, Eunuch Li patted me on my back and said with a smile: "Have you ever seen the emperor?" He added, "If the emperor can greet me personally, the major general is the first person in this dynasty."

I walked forward in a daze, not knowing what kind of ritual to do, but after thinking about it, I had to kneel. As soon as I leaned forward, my knees were firmly grasped by a pair of big hands before I could be bent down, I laughed loudly and said, "I originally wanted to go to the Marshal's Mansion to invite you in person, but you also know how troublesome it is to go out." I looked up in shock, and the first thing that entered my eyes was a curly bearded face and a pair of bright eyes. He blinked at me, as if he was telling my old friend's helplessness. I then gave him a clear look: "Under." Zhu Xiaofeng laughed again, pulled my hand and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to have tea."

We walked side by side, and everyone else was shocked to give way. Huang Yifei and others knelt there and ignored him. When they saw the emperor walking away, they stood up embarrassedly. Looking at my back, they couldn't help but be filled with surprise and confusion...

From the narratives between Stilyang and others, I could feel that they were full of awe of Zhu Xiaofeng, but when they met the emperor of the Honglie Empire, they had no airs and were not as if they were fake.

Zhu Xiaofeng led me to a lush place, and pointed his hand and said, "This is my imperial garden. What do you think?"

Eunuch Li winked at me, and I understood what he meant - isn't he trying to die when he calls his brother to the emperor? But I didn't take him as a gang, and saw that the path in the garden was spacious, with tall and straight poplar trees planted on both sides, and the flowers in the flower bed were full of flowers and plants, but they were huge peonies and other flowers. Compared with the Imperial Garden of the Kingdom of Women, Zhu Xiaofeng's garden was rude, but it also showed its strength.

I said, "Not bad."

Zhu Xiaofeng said: "Where is good?"

I said, "Trees have their own shapes, and flowers have their own shapes, that's good."

Zhu Xiaofeng said happily: "Good words! There are trees and flowers and flowers. These eight words are about my heart. I asked those poor literati to evaluate them. They all chose some nice words, saying "rough and sparse, unique". In fact, what I want is very simple, and everything should be like. I don't like those strange flowers and plants with ill diseases the most!"

Eunuch Li exclaimed: "These two words of the emperor can tell the mystery of the world."

Zhu Xiaofeng smiled and scolded: "Don't flatter, hurry up and ask someone to clean up the bamboo house. I and my brother want to have tea there."

Eunuch Li ran around with a smile on his face. In fact, the eunuchs were naturally doing such small things. He was just showing his attention frequently. His eyes were different when he looked at me. Judging from their performance, he should only know that I was Shi Cundao's grandson. I didn't know why Zhu Xiaofeng was very jealous of me. However, people like Eunuch Li have long become elites. From the emperor's personal response, it has been seen that I will surely make a fortune in the future, so I am careful everywhere. In this regard, Huang Yifei is far less eye-catching than Eunuch Li.
