Section 550: Palace Secrets(1/2)

As the weather gets colder day by day, the Yutang Palace gradually becomes vacant.

The Emperor's Emperor officially moved to the greenhouse hall yesterday.

The Greenhouse Hall is one of the most unique buildings in the Han Dynasty palace.

Like Qingliang Hall, it is the ultimate expression of the Chinese royal family's enjoyment in the classical era.

This palace complex even has expensive pepper and mud applied to the walls, which is said to keep warm if you do so.

Moreover, it can also remove the smell.

Well, it’s not difficult for Zhang Yue to understand how the palace designers of the BC linked peppercorns with warmth.

In fact, the most important warmth measure for the greenhouse hall is the gullies dug along the palace walls.

The ravines were filled with charcoal, and there were special eunuchs and palace maids who inspected and inspected the combustion of these ravines for twelve hours.

It cannot burn too fast or too slow.

In short, everything needs to meet the prescribed requirements.

And this is just one of the means of keeping warm.

In addition, a large number of uninterrupted bonfire braziers are placed in each hall, and all doors and windows in the room are also covered with embroidered clothing and screens.

So, the moment Zhang Yue stepped into the door of the greenhouse hall, he felt as if he had come to spring.

The indoor temperature is comfortable and pleasant twenty-four degrees.

And, it will remain at this temperature from now until March next spring.

"Why are you here?" Shangguan Jie, who had been on duty in the palace outside the Greenhouse Hall, heard the sound and looked up and saw Zhang Yue. He came forward with surprise and asked, "Is there something important?"

"I just thought that my brother was lonely in the palace alone, so I went to the palace to accompany my brother..." Zhang Yue laughed and said, "In addition, I just wanted to enter the palace to see Your Majesty..."

Shangguan Jie thought for a while and said, "That's right!"

The prince had just had such a big thing and was almost deposed. It was inevitable that this Shizhong official, who had a close relationship with the prince, was nervous. Therefore, Shangguan Jie did not think too much and said to Zhang Yue: "Your Majesty should not be too worried. Today, Your Majesty was in a good mood. He drank two cups of bird's nest soup for dinner and also practiced Tai Chi in the back hall. Now he is reviewing the memorial..."

"I'm sorry for my brother..." Zhang Yue hurriedly said, "My brother Yu is not serving in the palace, and His Majesty relies on his brother to serve him alone. My brother Yu is indeed a little ashamed!"

Shangguan Jie just smiled loudly.

Zhang Yue asked, "By the way, brother, have the candidates for the new servant clerk been confirmed?"

Shangguan Jie said: "Taichangqing chose several candidates, but His Majesty was not very satisfied..."

He looked at Zhang Yue and asked, "Does there be a suitable candidate for me?"

Zhang Yue listened and smiled mysteriously, asking: "Does brother have any candidates to recommend? This is a private person who does not avoid being close to his relatives. If the brother has any, I will definitely support you!"

Shangguan Jie also laughed and waved his hand and said, "Oh, my brother respects me so much!"

Where is the recommendation of this Shizhong official?

It is unlikely that the emperor will choose to hire people because of his recommendation.

However, Zhang Yue's attitude was very helpful to him, so Shangguan Jie said, "Brother Yu heard that some villains have recently been trying to make things difficult for the minister?"

"Just jumping clown!" Zhang Yue whispered: "Not to be afraid, no fear..."

"That's good!" Shangguan Jie wisely stopped the topic and said, "By the way, brother! Brother Yu heard that his brother, Changsun and the former General Zhao of the Hungary are preparing to present a gift to His Majesty for the 47th anniversary of the Supreme Emperor's Supreme Lord..."

"I don't know, do you want someone else on my side?"

"You have someone to recommend me?" Zhang Yue said with a smile: "As long as it is recommended by my brother, I will have no objection to you..."

"Oh, what talent is there!" Shangguan Jie lowered his voice and said, "It's just a dog, a playboy, rude, ignorant, ignorant, and ignorant, I have a headache!"

"General Hungary, I have always respected him, and is a veteran general of the country. Brother Yu thought about it and wanted the dog to learn something under the veteran general's disciple and gain some knowledge... so as not to make mistakes in the future!"

"That's it..." Zhang Yue said: "Since he is the eldest son of the brother, then please come to Yu'er's mansion tomorrow to get a famous post..."

"Thank you, brother!" Shangguan Jie hurriedly thanked.

For Shangguan Jie, being able to stuff his eldest son into the project of "promoting a gift to the 47th anniversary of the emperor's ascension to the throne" was the greatest success.

Because, this is an excellent opportunity to show your face.

It was the best starting point for his career for Shangguan An.

There are few other opportunities better.

Of course, he would have to pay back something if Zhang Yue gave him face like this. Not to mention that the last time the typhoid fever epidemic in Chang'an was in Chang'an, he took Zhang Yue's free ride and won his reputation and reputation.

It was also that time that laid the foundation for his role as a Taifu.

Now, the position of Taifu is almost certain for him.

Even the emperor had already hinted at him and asked him to prepare to go to the servant to clean up the mess.

So, after thinking for a moment, Shangguan Jie stomped his feet, leaned over to Zhang Yue's ear, and said, "My brother, please give me more advice, don't forget the origin of Ganquan Palace..."

Zhang Yue listened, a little confused.

Who is Ganquan Palace referring to? Zhang Yue knows it well, and is undoubtedly Concubine Zhao Jie, the wife of Gouyi.

But does this concubine have any amazing background?

Zhang Yue didn't understand very well. Judging from his understanding and impression, this Concubine Zhao was from Hejian, Zhao State. When the emperor visited Hejian, a alchemist who accompanied him told the emperor that by observing the celestial phenomena and astrology, he learned that there were beauties in Hejian, and that they were a beauty with special features.

The emperor was happy when he heard this, so he sent someone to search and found a beautiful girl.

This woman was born with her fists closed tightly. Although she was sixteen or seventeen years old, she still couldn't open it.

But what is amazing is that after seeing the emperor, the emperor stretched out his hand and opened it, holding a small jade hook tightly with his palm.

This is the origin of Mrs. Gouyi’s name. Among the people, more people like to call her Mrs. Boxing.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue was suddenly stunned.

Born to close your fists?

Isn't this a natural deformity?

But he had met Mrs. Gouyi, and although her hands were small, it was normal.

In other words... Zhang Yue raised his head and looked at Shangguan Jie, and found that the other party was looking at him with a smile on his face, everything was silent.

But the problem is...

Mrs. Gouyi back then was just a woman from an ordinary family in Hejian.

How did she and her family get in touch with the palace and plot to direct this drama?

Zhang Yue fell into deep thought, some of which were not difficult to understand.

Among the historical materials he traced back, the description and description of this was quite brief, almost a stroke.

Even the name of the alchemist is not recorded.

This question made Zhang Yue very uncomfortable, so he leaned into Shangguan Jie's ear and whispered: "Please give me some advice..."

Shangguan Jie looked at Zhang Yue and looked around again. He lowered his voice until he confirmed that no one was staring at him, and said to Zhang Yue: "Have you never heard of the story of the Bailiang Terrace Disaster?"

"Brother is saying..." Zhang Yue's eyes were stunned: "Xiahou?"

The Bailiangtai disaster is the greatest masterpiece and prophecy of Mr. Xiahou Shichang in his life.

It is almost a saying that the fire will occur in Bailiangtai, and it will really happen.

It's simply amazing!

Shangguan Jie's meaning is obvious. The nameless "大天女" ignored by history books and official documents is not a alchemist, but a Confucian scholar, and Xiahou Shichang, the leader of the famous Gongyang School's Prophecy and Taboo Sect!

If you think about it carefully, it seems to be understandable.

Today, I was a little unbelievable about the sorcerers and alchemists after the Yuanfeng Fengshen.

However, the Confucian scholars' prophecies of disasters and disagreements have become political correct in some form through packaging.

Although today, although Confucian scholars don’t like to talk about disasters and disagreements, if they praise him and prove the rationality of their rule, they would believe it.

Therefore, the favored Mrs. Gouyi was not only because she was really beautiful and capable, but also because of her good luck, but she gave birth to a prince for the emperor at once.

Eight out of ten, are there any money transactions or even political plots in it?

But the problem is that Mr. Xiahou Shichang is from Lu, and this old man has already achieved success and fame. How could he have a relationship with an ordinary landlord in Hejian, the Zhao family, which was an official family, and is willing to do this for the Zhao family?

You know, once this matter is discovered, it will kill the whole family!

Who dares to be careless about the crime of deceiving the king?

Looking at Zhang Yue's doubts, Shangguan Jie lowered his voice and said carefully: "At that time, there was a Huangmen Minister in the palace, named Zhao Xian, and Zhao Huangmen died and was buried outside the Yongmen Gate in Chang'an..."

"Before entering the palace, Zhao Huangmen married a wife in Hejian, gave birth to two sons and one daughter..."

"After entering the palace, Zhao Huangmen once served as the Bailiang Supervisor..."

"It is said that this Zhao Huangmen once had an old relationship with a great scholar, and he was very close to him and became a confidant..."

After all this was said, Zhang Yue immediately understood.

"So that's it..." He sighed softly: "So that's it!"
To be continued...
