Chapter 261 Father, long time no see
Xiangying took back the drone. This time, she had thoroughly figured out the layout of the entire Shangjing City.
The residences of high-ranking officials and nobles were also visible to her online eyes.
Now the map is printed out using 3D scanning, and Xiangying patiently made several marks.
When she gets the chance, she will ask Jie Chen to make a list of corrupt officials in South Vietnam for her and search them one by one. She wonders how rich she will become!
Xiangying put away the drone and entered the space to take a look.
This was shocking to see that her cartoon characters had actually walked into the dense forest filled with miasma.
Everyone was leaning against a big tree, breathing weakly, and seemed to be in poor condition.
Xiangying was shocked.
How could that be possible? There were at least hundreds of thousands of these people, and she had fed them one bite at a time with great difficulty.
You can't die here!
Suddenly, Xiangying no longer cared about the shells of the drugs and threw some antibiotics into the screen one by one.
There is also some food, clean water, and prepared medicine.
Fortunately, these cartoon characters have become accustomed to her giving. Each of them receives the food from the sky, kowtows first and then takes the medicine, with their movements flowing like flowing water.
Xiangying threw down a lot of honey bread, which was made by the kitchen robot in her space. It was completely unavailable in this era.
After she finished all this, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that their faces looked better.
As soon as I left the space, a guard opened the curtain.
"Come out."
When Xiangying got off the carriage, the cold wind made her mind clearer.
Only then did she realize that she had walked into a deep palace path and Jie Chen and the others were gone!
There were more than a dozen guards in front of her, guarding her from front to back. She must be under strict supervision.
Xiangying calmed down a little, and at the urging of the guards, he took the initiative to walk forward.
On both sides, guards in bright silver armor lined up neatly, escorting her forward.
As the cold wind blew, the fur between the gaps in the armor trembled slightly, and the subtle rubbing sound made the red walls on both sides of the palace road appear even taller.
It snowed two days ago, but it stopped today.
Xiangying looked up and saw the towering palace walls, and the vermilion color looked even more vivid and eye-catching against the backdrop of the white snow.
On the top of the wall, the glazed tiles are stacked layer upon layer with complex colors. At this time, the snow is piled up between the corrugations, complementing each other.
Xiangying passed by a courtyard and couldn't help but stop and look inside.
So luxurious!
Just from the visible corner, you can see the winding corridor and the intricately carved wooden railings.
Although the auspicious pattern of dragon and phoenix was slightly covered by the light snow, the lines carved on the expensive mahogany could still be seen, as if they were about to break through the wall and take off.
Under the corridor hangs an octagonal palace lantern with elaborately painted flowers and birds on the lampshade. Although it is not lit, it exudes an air of nobility.
Xiangying also saw a pond at the end of the corridor. The water in the pond was not completely frozen, and it reflected the snow on the shore and the scattered Taihu stones.
The furnishings alone are so elegant, it is obvious that the person living in this palace must be deeply loved.
The guards behind him shouted, "Go away! What are you looking at?"
Xiangying snorted calmly.
What can she see? Of course, it's marking.
The entire palace is hers tonight!
She was taken to a remote courtyard without even a palace maid.
When Xiangying walked into the room, the door was closed by the guards from the outside.
She even heard the sound of the door being locked.
Xiangying glanced around.
A simple bed, a table and chairs, and a cabinet.
Xiangying walked to the door and said in a cold voice: "Live here? How will I eat every day?"
"A palace maid will come and deliver it to you." The guard responded coldly.
Xiangying asked again: "What about my toilet and urinal?"
The guard was obviously impatient, and he suppressed his anger and replied: "There are also palace maids to deal with it!"
"Oh~" She felt relieved that someone was serving her.
Xiangying patted her skirt and sat down on the bed.
Tsk! It hits my butt!
Not only is the bed board hard, but the bedding is also thin.
It's winter now, and I don't know how cold it will be at night.
Xiangying immediately took out soft and comfortable silk bedding from the space, and because it was cold, he exchanged it for a small sun for charging from the barter space.
She lit the candle quietly so that no one outside would see or discover her little solar heater.
Afterwards, Xiangying took out a red oil pan and put the skewers he had prepared in it.
Roll up your sleeves, open a Coke, and start feasting.
The other side.
Xie Chen walked to the outside of the imperial study with heavy steps.
The eunuch who led him here said in a sharp voice: "Just wait here."
The cold wind kept blowing through his clothes. The imperial guards around him looked straight ahead. He stood at the foot of more than a hundred steps. Compared with the magnificent imperial study, he was as small as a grain of sand.
Xie Chen waited for a long time, which made him recall his childhood for no reason.
When he was young, his mother told him that his identity was different from that of other princes.
Because he was not a complete Nanyue person, his brothers and sisters were not close to him. Even his father, the emperor, did not like him very much and was always extremely strict with him.
On several occasions, he did nothing wrong, but in order to test his obedience, his father made the young boy stand outside the imperial study.
He has stood here in both extreme cold and scorching heat.
The longest time he stood was two hours, until he collapsed from the heat.
That time, his mother hugged him and cried, and it was also the first time she quarreled with his father.
But what he got in return was a harsher tone from the man.
"I want to train his patience and endurance! If he can't endure any hardship, how can he be competent for a great responsibility?"
At that time, Jie Chen didn’t understand why he needed to train himself to be so strong and tolerant?
Later he learned that perhaps at that time, his father was planning to send him back to the Western Zhou Dynasty.
Thinking of the past, Xie Chen stood in the cold wind and couldn't help revealing a mocking expression.
He was no longer the child who allowed himself to be manipulated by the emperor.
Just as he was about to leave, the eunuch came out of the imperial study and said, "Your Majesty, please come in!"
Xie Chen walked up the stairs and entered the imperial study. The rich scent of agarwood filled his nose, and the fragrance from the purple copper stove wafted in the air.
Walking around the screen with the words "peace and prosperity all over the world", the bright yellow figure was sitting behind the imperial table.
Xie Chen knelt down and greeted with an expressionless face.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
A robed figure moved in front of him, and the man sitting behind the desk immediately came over and helped him up.
"Old Ten, hurry up and let me take a good look."
The emperor in front of him, Jie Chen's father Ling Su, had a majestic and stern face, which looked even more oppressive when he didn't smile.
But the man in front of him was full of smiles, looking at Jie Chen with emotion.
"Thirteen years have passed in a flash. You have grown so big. Although Father occasionally heard about your appearance from the spies' replies, I never thought that you would be taller than Father."
He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Jie Chen's forehead, but Jie Chen avoided it calmly.
The emperor's eyes darkened, and he heard Jie Chen say, "If your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will take my leave first."
Ling Su flicked his sleeves coldly: "Why, these thirteen years of experience haven't made you understand what it means to be a monarch, a minister, and a father and a son? Do you have to make me angry?"
I'm late!!! I drank too much at noon. I didn't expect that I would get drunk easily after drinking one glass of wine...
