Chapter 46 Special Treatment
The group went to the Beilin Palace located in Shengjing East City, and saw a group of people standing in front of the palace from a distance.
Xie Tingzhou reined in his horse in front of the door, and immediately a guard came forward and took the reins.
"Your Highness!" Chang Liu ran down the stairs excitedly, as if complaining, "Your Highness has been gone for quite a while, you see I have lost weight."
Xie Tingzhou glanced at him and said calmly, "You gained a lot of weight while I was away."
Chang Liu curled his lips, and when he saw the person behind Xie Tingzhou, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Are you Shi Yu?"
Chen Yu didn't know him, but judging from how familiar he was with Xie Tingzhou, he was probably not an ordinary guard.
He looked very young, even younger than Chen Yu.
"Yes." Shen Yu replied.
Changliu looked him up and down, and seeing that Xie Tingzhou was about to leave, he hurriedly followed him.
"Cang has been waiting in His Highness's courtyard for a long time. During the days since His Highness left, he has lost his appetite and looks thinner."
Xie Tingzhou snorted and asked, "As thin as you?"
"It's really thin!" Chang Liu said, "No matter how I persuaded it, it wouldn't eat, and it wouldn't go out. I said I wanted to take it to the mountains to hunt, but it didn't want to move."
"I understand." Xie Tingzhou said calmly.
Chen Yu followed behind and listened. She didn't know who Cang was, but judging from his name, he should be a man. Looking at Xie Tingzhou's expression, he should be someone he valued very much.
The Beilin Palace is very large.
Chen Yu had ridden past here before and felt that the high walls of the palace were so endless that it took some time to ride past.
It faces south and covers an area of dozens of acres, which is more than ten times larger than the original general's mansion.
At that time, the palace was sparsely populated, with only a few servants left to take care of it. Although it was luxurious with its green tiles and red eaves, it was also very desolate and desolate.
Now that I'm actually walking around, I realize how ridiculously big the palace is.
She turned her head slightly and asked the guard behind her: "Does it take so long every time you go in and out of the door?"
Changliu, who was walking in front, heard his question and slowed down.
As soon as Changliu retreated, Xifeng immediately rushed forward.
Chang Liu walked side by side with Shen Yu and said proudly, "You haven't seen it, have you? This is nothing. Our palace in Beilin is really big. But we can go in and out by sedan chair on weekdays. We can also ride horses to enter some courtyards, such as Qingpuju where His Highness lives."
"Stay for a long time." Xie Tingzhou warned from the front.
Changliu covered his mouth and followed.
It took a quarter of an hour to walk from the main gate to Qingpu Ju. Xifeng followed behind Xie Tingzhou and reported some trivial matters in the capital.
Several people successively
Step into Qingpu Residence.
Chen Yu raised her foot to follow, but Chang Liu suddenly blocked the door and said, "Cang doesn't like outsiders, so your Highness's courtyard is usually not allowed to be entered by others."
Chen Yu looked at Xie Tingzhou's back. She was Xie Tingzhou's personal guard and was under the jurisdiction of Xi Feng. As long as Xie Tingzhou and Xi Feng didn't speak, no one else could say anything.
Xie Tingzhou just turned around, glanced at Chen Yu, thought for a moment and said, "You go down and have a rest."
What it means is that no one else is allowed to enter the yard. Who on earth is this Cang? He is so arrogant that no one else is allowed to enter as long as he is here.
Could it be that Xie Tingzhou has a mistress hidden in his golden house?
Chen Yu retracted her foot and saw Xi Feng glanced at her and talked to Xie Tingzhou.
Xi Feng had lowered his voice, but people who practiced martial arts had good hearing, so Chen Yu vaguely heard a few words.
Xin, Liang Jianfang, Ministry of War, Ministry of Revenue... the farther away they were, the clearer they were, and finally I heard someone say "Sir".
Every word here is related to the Yanliangguan case. She is eager to know, but from Xifeng's defensive look when he turned back, she can tell that he does not trust her.
After days of running around, Xie Tingzhou seemed to have tasted a bit of the meaning of galloping on the battlefield in the past from the hardships of these days.
He has been hiding his edge for many years, immersing himself in a life of decadence and luxury, and his bones seem to have become softened.
Xie Tingzhou immersed himself in the pool, his body gradually relaxing in the water. He leaned against the edge of the pool with his arms folded, and sorted out Xifeng's report in his mind.
The maid held the nightgown and placed it behind the screen, then quietly left.
After soaking for a long time, Xie Tingzhou got up and put on his clothes.
Back in the bedroom, Xie Tingzhou opened the window and looked out. It was still pitch black outside. It was already midnight.
I closed the window and turned around, suddenly remembering something.
"Xifeng." Xie Tingzhou pushed the window and shouted.
Xi Feng walked to the window and heard Xie Tingzhou ask, "Where's Shi Yu?"
"I've asked him to rest after running around for days."
Xie Tingzhou nodded slightly, and suddenly asked: "Where did you arrange him?"
Xi Feng said, "The dormitory where the guards rest."
Xie Tingzhou frowned slightly, "Find him a yard."
Xifeng thought of what happened outside the city and asked tentatively: "Qizi Hall is the closest to your Highness, how about..."
"No need," Xie Tingzhou interrupted him, "Which courtyard is the farthest from here?"
"There is a courtyard on the west side of the palace, right next to the courtyard where the brothers who delivered newspapers to Beijing used to rest in the past."
Thanks
Ting Zhou thought for a moment and said, "I vaguely remember there was a yard near the east gate."
Xi Feng quickly glanced at Xie Tingzhou and said, "Yes, Lu Ming Xuan is for guests."
"That's it." Xie Tingzhou made the decision.
Xi Feng lowered his head, "Yes, I'll go right away."
As Xi Feng stepped out of the door, Xie Tingzhou called out again, "Come back."
"I'll go tomorrow. It's late."
Xifeng walked around the corridor and ran into Changliu who was waiting there.
"You're not sleeping yet?"
Chang Liu said mysteriously, "Who is that Shi Yu? I just asked the guards, and they said that His Highness picked him up on the battlefield."
Xi Feng said: "To be exact, it was General Chang who picked it up."
Chang Liu was puzzled, "Why didn't General Chang take him to Beilin? Instead, he let him follow His Highness to Shengjing."
Xifeng didn't know how to tell him about this. The reasons were complicated and it would take a while to explain them clearly.
Besides, strictly speaking, it was Xie Tingzhou and Chang Heng who were fighting over this person, and Chang Heng had been talking about it for several days.
"He is good at martial arts, and serves as a guard beside His Highness."
"Are you trying to scare me?" Chang Liu realized that his voice was too loud when he opened his mouth, and quickly lowered his voice and said, "Brother, you are not honest. If he was just a guard, why would His Highness give him a separate courtyard? And he also told you not to wake him up."
Xi Feng corrected, "I didn't say not to wake him up, I just said it was late at night."
"Isn't that the same meaning?" Chang Liu spread his hands.
"How do you know that His Highness is not worried about my hard work?"
Chang Liu snorted, "Don't you know what's going on? You still want to keep watch? Why didn't His Highness tell you to go and rest?"
Xifeng pursed her lips.
Chang Liu asked in confusion: "But it's strange, why give him a separate yard, but why choose the farthest place?"
Xi Feng was also puzzled.
I couldn't help but think of what the woman said when we were outside the city.
Can't it be true?
Xifeng immediately shook his head and removed the thought from his mind.
Chang Liu saw his expression and leaned over to ask, "What are you thinking about? Why do you look so weird?"
Xi Feng suddenly said seriously: "He has followed Your Highness through life and death and has made great contributions. It is not too much to give him a courtyard."
"But we only live in one courtyard. You have followed His Highness through thick and thin for so many years, why didn't His Highness give you any?"
He was really talking about something irrelevant. Xifeng didn't want to say another word to him, so he turned and left.
