Chapter 124 Entering the Palace for the First Time

This was the first time Chi Shi entered the palace. Because he was sitting in the carriage from the Chu Prince's Mansion, no one stopped him along the way. When he entered the palace gate, he did not change to the sedan chair carried by the young father-in-law or the old man as he said in the book.

Chi Shi didn't know if it was the difference between Liang Palace or the privilege of King Zhou Xian of Chu.

Zhou Xian didn't speak along the way, as if he was really annoyed, and his nose was tilted. Chi Shi glanced at him with his own eyes and saw that he had already leaned against the wall of the carriage at some point and fell asleep.

The sun shone through the curtain of the carriage and shone on his face, making his fair skin almost bright and transparent. The layer of hair stained with golden light on Zhou Xian's face can even be seen in the pool.

Under his eyes, there was a dark circle. Last night, after sending her back home, I was afraid that I hadn't had a long sleep, so I went to the morning court again.

The pathological condition I had never seen before seemed to have disappeared after he fell asleep.

The carriage stopped, Chi Shi stroked his robe, jumped out of the carriage first, and then reached out his hand toward the carriage.

Zhou Xian, who had just woken up, was stunned and reached out his hand stupidly. After getting off the car, he found that there was an extra piece of Qiuli Candy in his hand. He smiled helplessly and stuffed Qiuli Candy into his mouth, making his cheeks bulge.

He quickly stepped forward and walked side by side with Chi Shi, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? I'll give me a candy after I've scolded me?"

Chi Shi stretched out his palm, "If you don't want to spit it out!"

Zhou Xian snorted, took the goose feather fan, patted the head of the pond, took the lead, and entered the side hall, which was a place where the emperor often feasted for guests.

As soon as he entered, he was stunned. The place was full of seats. From top to bottom, all the ladies in the harem were from the emperor.

Chi Shi saw him blocking the door, stretched out his finger and poked Zhou Xian's back waist.

Zhou Xian was stunned. When he remembered what Chi Shi said, it was not the nonsense that his wife who had not yet passed the door went to see relatives and elders. He suddenly turned red. He let out a gentle voice and led Chi Shi forward to see the greeting.

"The emperor's grandmother didn't even say she had some cough yesterday. Why did she come here today? Madam Tao is really, why didn't she wear the fox fur I gave her? It was so warm. This winter, it was very cold."

Chi Shi took advantage of their attention to Zhou Xian and looked up quietly.

The one sitting on the main seat is Zhou Yuan, the current emperor of Daliang. Zhou Yuan and Zhou Xian are 70% similar, but they look like a mother and a compatriot. But the temperaments around them are particularly different.

If Zhou Xian is gentle like water, then the emperor Zhou Yuan is simply a burning fire. The fire may have burned too much, and even his hair is a little red. Chi Shi sighed in his heart.

Compared to Zhou Xian, who was as thin as paper, Zhou Yuan was as solid as a small tower. "Okay, okay, you gave me a fox's skin, and you said it was winter. I wish my grandmother could sleep, but she would sleep in her clothes."

When Zhou Xian heard this, he looked at Zhou Yuan with dissatisfaction, "The emperor's brother is accustomed to laugh at me."

The people in the room laughed relaxed when they heard this, and even the Empress Dowager showed a three-point smile on her face. Zhou Xian was right. The old lady had no wrinkles on her face. She looked like her and was not a good match.

"Is this the coroner of the Chi family who just broke the murder case?" Before Chi Shi looked at the others, the Empress Dowager had already looked at her. She looked at Chi Shi up and down, as if she missed something, and turned her head to look at Empress Dowager Zhang.

"They are young and have never heard of the scenery of the Chi family. When you were a child, you should have heard of it. At that time, all the teahouses and restaurants in the capital, and the storyteller had only one story in the mouth, that is, the coroner Chi Cheng."

"Emperor Taizong looked at Chi Cheng, just like looking at his eyes, saying that he would count up to five hundred years and down to five hundred years, and there would be no second Chi Cheng. Today, when I heard that he was a coroner named Chi, I suddenly remembered them all."

The Empress Dowager said, waved to Chi Shi, "This man is old and just likes to recall the past. Today, I asked the emperor to ask you to come to the palace. I haven't heard anyone for a long time and told the story of solving the case."

"I originally thought it was your grandfather who was back, but I didn't expect that it was a baby. There were seventeen murder cases. You have only been to the capital for a few days and looked at the file and found out?"

The Empress Dowager said, looking at Zhou Xian, "You invited Wang Dawang to come out of the mountain first. Now you went to Yongzhou and bought another treasure. It's really a good idea. You said you were going to Yongzhou before, but those old men said you were just making a fool of yourself."

Before Zhou Xian could speak, Empress Dowager Zhang looked at Zhou Xian kindly, "Although Xian'er is the youngest, she is the most organized in her work."

Chi frowned slightly and straightened his body, "If the murderer was Lin Shaoqing, it would take at least one month; if I changed into a fool in the middle, it would be enough for a few days. If I had no such ability, why would the King of Chu travel thousands of miles to come to Beijing?"

The room suddenly became quiet, and the sound of needles falling to the ground could almost be heard.

Zhou Xian's hand, which was shaking the fan, froze, and made Chi Shi wink, causing his eyelids to cramp. Chi Shi didn't move any intention. He cleared his throat and was about to step forward to rescue Chi Shi.

I heard a hilarious rumor, "Haha! Grandma, I like this Chi Corps very much! I should have done this, if you have the ability, you should use it. If you hide it and do not serve the country, that is the loss of the country."

"This child looks at his age, but he is much more capable than him." Seeing that Zhou Xian was about to be annoyed, Zhou Yuan smiled again, "I didn't have this child before, and his innocent seal is just a decoration. Now, when this child comes, he will follow others and make a contribution!"

Zhou Yuan said, picking up the wine cup on the table, "What are you doing while standing there? It's not the first time you've come back and haven't been in the seat."

When Zhou Xian heard this, he walked straight towards his position. Another eunuch came and led the Chi to the last position.

The Empress Dowager looked at him and smiled, "It's indeed a skill. I heard that you still have martial arts? Alas, I still remember that your grandfather came to the palace to sue and said that he was going to return to his hometown. At that time, the late emperor was still there and said something to him for a long time."

"Although your grandfather is far less outstanding than your great-grandfather, he is also a loyal person. However, he seems to be unable to do anything. The atmosphere is very good today. It would be better if you come out and play for a while, it would be a fun thing."

When Zhou Xian heard this, his face changed slightly. When he looked at Chi with some concern, he always felt that Chi Shi's fist would hit his grandmother's nose in the next second.

Chi Shi had just sat down and was called up again. She narrowed her eyes and walked to the center of the hall.

"Chi Shi has a unique skill, which is to open the coffin with bare hands. Unfortunately, I cannot perform for the Empress Dowager today. If you want to see it, Chi Shi is willing to perform on your birthday."

"My grandfather once entered the palace, but he didn't know it when he was in the pool. He only taught us to argue right and wrong, but it was difficult to talk about the past. He always said that if he often recalled the past, it would seem that there was no future and he should look forward."

Chi Shi said, lifting his feet and stomping gently, then saluted, and stood beside obediently.

There was tranquility in the hall again.
