The security in the palace was extremely tight. It was impossible for ordinary people to enter the palace!
It was not easy for even the officials of the imperial court to enter the Imperial Palace!
Unless it was during morning court.
It was not the morning court session. Those who wanted to enter the palace to meet the emperor had to first tell their reasons at the palace gate. If the matter was not serious, they would wait at the palace gate. If the matter was serious, they would be brought to the door of the Dew Palace by a young eunuch to wait.
However, important officials like Du Ruhui were given special treatment. They could directly enter the side hall of the palace to rest and wait for the eunuch to inform Li Shiming!
Although they were both waiting, one was at the palace gate and the other was in the palace. The treatment was like heaven and earth!
However, it was even more impossible for Du Ruhui and the others to enter and leave the Imperial Palace as they pleased, and even bring people with them!
Along the way.
Cheng Chumo was sitting in Zhangsun Wuji's carriage. Zhangsun Wuji had also told him many rules and told him not to walk around the palace casually. This made Cheng Chumo feel cheated.
"Uncle Zhangsun, that's not what you said before I got on the carriage! You only told me now that we're almost at the palace!”
Cheng Chumo looked at Zhangsun Wuji in annoyance. What was going on? They were about to reach the palace, and he was telling himself that he couldn't enter or walk around the palace. Wasn't this a joke?
Facing Cheng Chumo's impatience, Zhangsun Wuji wasn't angry at all. Instead, he smiled at Cheng Chumo and said.
"Nephew, you don't have to worry. However, I still have some power. During the morning court session, I can let you wait in the side hall. After the morning court session ends, I will ask His Majesty for a favor and then I will be able to bring you around the palace!”
"Hahaha, that's great. Thank you, Uncle Zhangsun!”
Cheng Chumo smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.
However, he cursed in his heart. He completely understood Zhangsun Wuji's trap. It was obvious that Zhangsun Wuji felt that a little brat like him could not handle the boredom and would not wait for him in the side hall. Then, he would go out for a stroll. In the end, he made a mistake and was punished!
However, since he knew the other party's plan, he naturally had a way to deal with it!
Soon, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace. Except for the carriages inside the palace, no official's carriage could enter the palace. They could only enter on foot!
As soon as he jumped down from the carriage with Zhangsun Wuji, Cheng Chumo saw a dense group of officials at the entrance of the palace. There were also a few familiar faces. They were Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.
"Hey, nephew, why are you here? You're even sitting in Lord Zhangsun's carriage!”
After Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui saw Cheng Chumo, they walked over and smiled politely at Zhangsun Wuji. Then they looked at Cheng Chumo and asked.
However, before Cheng Chumo could speak, Zhangsun Wuji smiled and said.
"I met Nephew Chumo on the way to the morning court and asked him if he wanted to come to the palace for a walk, so I brought him along. Chumo, you talk to your Uncle Fang and Uncle Du first.”
As he spoke, Zhangsun Wuji smiled at Cheng Chumo and strode into the crowd, greeting the various officials.
Seeing Zhangsun Wuji leave, Fang Xuanling's expression became serious as he looked at Cheng Chumo and whispered.
"Chumo, your father and Zhangsun Wuji don't get along. You have to be careful!”
"That's right. Since you're already here, I naturally can't let you go back. However, before the morning court session ends, you can't walk out of the side hall and wander around the palace. Even if you do, you can't enter the harem.”
Du Ruhui also looked at Cheng Chumo seriously.
"Nephew knows, but aren't Uncle Du and Uncle Fang afraid that the palace maids and eunuchs will deliberately lure me into the harem?”Cheng Chumo nodded slightly. He was already prepared, but he still looked at the two of them and asked.
Cheng Chumo was also a little worried. When the eunuchs and palace maids said that the Empress wanted to see him, should he go or not? This must be the plot of the old fox Zhangsun! If he went, he would be scammed. It was a great sin for an outsider to enter the harem!
Hearing Cheng Chumo's words, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling burst into laughter.
"If there really are palace maids or eunuchs who want you to go to the harem, you can go boldly and play wherever you want. It's fine even if you make a ruckus! Zhangsun Wuji will take the blame for you. We are not dead!”
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling knew Zhangsun Wuji very well. With Zhangsun Wuji's character, he wouldn't specifically scheme against Cheng Chumo. As for bribing a palace maid, it was even more impossible!
Zhangsun Wuji was working for Li Shiming. Bribing a palace maid to harm Cheng Chumo was courting death. He was digging his own grave! It was completely impossible!
Therefore, in their opinion, Zhangsun Wuji had brought Cheng Chumo here just to test him and get to know him. After all, Cheng Chumo had caused quite a commotion recently!
"Alright, then I'm relieved! With Uncle Du and Uncle Fang around, I'm not afraid of anything!”
Cheng Chumo nodded. With Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling taking the blame for him, he had nothing to be afraid of. As long as Zhangsun Wuji dug a hole, he would just jump into it!
At this moment, Cheng Chumo began to hope that a palace maid would trick him out so that he could take a good look around the palace!
