After Ji Yueqin and his party separated from the Yunxiao Heights, they embarked on the road back to Dayu with Darkwing, and after leaving the realm of Daliang, they encountered fewer assassins.

As a result, this journey back to Dayu has also gone much smoother. Originally, it took a month to reach Chang'an, the capital of Dayu, but it only took them more than 20 days to come back.

Ji Yueqin looked at the prosperity and happiness of the people of Dayu outside the window, Du'an was originally taken from the meaning of being safe, and seeing such a prosperous scene, she couldn't help but have a sense of belonging to her mother's hometown, it turned out that this was the boundary of Chang'an.

The carriage drove slowly, and before entering the city, the mountains and rivers were clear, and the trees were dark red and light yellow. The scenery on the outskirts of Chang'an in autumn has a refreshing beauty.

Finally, they entered the city of Du'an, only to see Chang'an Avenue even narrow slopes, green oxen and white horses and seven incense cars. The people live a peaceful and prosperous life, and the whole street is filled with a happy and warm atmosphere.

Before you really enter the palace, you are shocked by the magnificence and majesty of the palace, and the red walls and golden tiles reveal a sense of simplicity but solemnity.

The forbidden army guarded the Suzaku Gate straight and solemnly, and Ji Yueqin's carriage was stopped when it drove to the door.

"Where did the carriage come from, don't you know what this place is?" The Praetorian Guard said majestically.

The dark wing on the side handed over a golden sign, and when the guard saw it, he was shocked and said: "The little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and asks the nobles in the carriage to forgive their sins." He was afraid that Ji Yueqin would blame him, so he half-knelt and pleaded guilty.

Ji Yueqin didn't blame him, his duty was to guard the palace, and said with a smile: "This is your duty, so what's the crime?" Get up. ”

When the guards heard this, they stood up and respectfully let Ji Yueqin enter the palace.

After entering from the west side of Suzaku Gate, you only enter the front part of the palace. I saw that the palace people had prepared a sedan chair and waited for Ji Yueqin's arrival on the side of the Suzaku Gate.

After entering the Suzaku Gate, it was even more refreshing for Ji Yueqin, compared to the palace of Daliang, the palace of Dayu was really brilliant and solemn.

Suzaku Gate belongs to the main gate of the Imperial Palace, and the east, west, and north sides are connected to each other by a six-zhang high castle platform, and form a square square surrounded by a heavy building in the middle of the square, which is a large hall about nine rooms wide.

And the top of the hall of this big hall, on the left and right sides of the extension of the two que city walls and built four pavilions with eaves and ridges, the corridors are connected with each other, there are twelve halls on each side to the south stretching out, and these twelve halls represent the twelve stars in the starry sky.

And there are tall pavilion corners between the four corners, and the auxiliary wings that reflect each other are the main hall. And this shape of the gatehouse is called the gate, the situation is majestic and magnificent, people can't help but be amazed when they see it.

Ji Yueqin saw that the gate of the palace was so brilliant and magnificent, and couldn't help but be even more curious about this so-called Great Emperor, what kind of excellent Ming Jun can have such a brilliant palace and let his people live a happy life?

The palace people who came to greet Ji Yueqin saw Ji Yueqin coming to them with lotus steps, so they saluted Ji Yueqin. Ji Yueqin is also half of the people from the palace, so she waved her hand lightly and exempted the palace people.

"Please let the little master get on the sedan chair, today our family will take the little master to settle down, and we will be able to see the emperor tomorrow." The eunuch who spoke wore a red hat, a blue-gray embroidered crane satin robe, and long boots.

"There is Father-in-law Lao." Ji Yueqin smiled slightly and said to the eunuch.

Ji Yueqin sat in a sedan chair carried by four people, and was carried by the great eunuch through the Taihe Bridge piled up with white jade.

In fact, Ji Yueqin didn't know that this eunuch was An Delu, the former eunuch and chief administrator of the Great Yu Emperor. Along the way, Ji Yueqin didn't say anything, and An Delu didn't dare to trespass.

The sedan chair that Ji Yueqin is sitting on has a golden embroidered phoenix curtain, and the top is a golden four-person sedan chair. Ji Yueqin came to Dayu for the first time, and she didn't know the level of the sedan chair on Dayu's side and the meaning it represented. But in the eyes of those who have a heart, it means differently.

Because it is embroidered with gold and a phoenix, it represents the queen. Now an unknown little girl is sitting in this sedan chair, which inevitably makes many people with a heart more attentive.

In particular, it was the noble woman who was sitting in the Fengxi Palace who was even more angry and smashed all the vases in all the palaces, because she knew who the person sitting in the sedan chair was, and she also knew what it represented, how could she not be angry?

In the palace of Dayu, only the concubines who have gone to the fourth grade are qualified to sit in a small sedan chair carried by two people, and the four concubines and the imperial concubine are qualified to sit in a sedan chair carried by four people, and only the queen and the queen mother can be a four-person sedan chair with a phoenix.

For the officials of the previous dynasty, only those who were on the fourth rank were qualified to sit in a sedan chair carried by two people, and the officials below the fourth rank could only sit in a carriage, and only the first-rank officials and princes and nobles could sit in a sedan chair carried by four people. As for the emperor, he sat in a sedan chair carried by eight people.

There are no such regulations in the market, but generally speaking, only when getting married, some people will choose to carry eight sedan chairs to marry women into the door, and the average rich and noble family chooses a sedan chair carried by four people.

Ji Yueqin was taken by An Delu to the Qianxi Palace, and An Delu retreated and went back to his life.

I saw two women coming out of the Qianxi Palace, only to see the clothes with small sleeves and narrow clothes, plus half arms, shoulders around the shawl, tight long skirts tied to the chest, and the style was simple.

They chuckled but saluted Ji Yueqin with a dignified smile, and then said loudly: "Little master, the Queen Mother is waiting for you inside." ”

Ji Yueqin had some doubts in her heart, and she didn't know why she was placed in the Queen Mother, but she also calmly followed the two of them into the palace.

Ji Yueqin entered the Qianxi Palace, only to see that on the antique soft collapse in the hall, there was an old woman with gray hair but kind eyebrows, who must be the owner of the Qianxi Palace. Behind her, the palace maid gently pressed her shoulder, and the smoke from the incense burner on the table carried a serene aroma.

When the Queen Mother heard someone coming in, she immediately opened her closed eyes and said kindly: "It's Yueqin who is here, come and sit here to mourn." ”

Ji Yueqin listened to the Queen Mother's words, just bowed to the Queen Mother uprightly, and knelt in place.

"The little girl Yueqin visited the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was blessed with longevity and health." Although Ji Yueqin was kneeling, she straightened her back without humility or arrogance.

The Queen Mother saw Ji Yueqin's appearance, like the Duan Rou who did not have a trace of arrogance but had a proud backbone, although the woman did not marry into the royal family, she loved her very much, and she did not expect such a beautiful woman to die so fragrantly.

"What are you kneeling on this stupid boy, Xiuzhu will quickly help Yueqin up, this is going to be seen by others, and it will be said that I, the old lady, am embarrassed." When the Queen Mother saw Ji Yueqin kneeling, she hurriedly asked someone to help her up.

"The mourning family asked you to sit next to the mourning family, don't stand stupidly." The Queen Mother saw that Ji Yueqin's quiet body had an indescribable calming atmosphere, and she couldn't help but have a good impression of Ji Yueqin.

"How can the little girl encroach on the Queen Mother." Ji Yueqin was helped up by the embroidered bamboo, and stood in place with her head down.

"The mourning family asked you to sit here, so sit down. What do you say that you don't trespass, but you're afraid of mourning? The Queen Mother said to Ji Yueqin with a smile.

"Yes." Ji Yueqin answered, and then took small steps and moved lightly to the side of the Queen Mother and sat down.

The more the Queen Mother looked at Ji Yueqin, the more she liked it, and she couldn't help but take Ji Yueqin's hand and said, "How old is Yueqin this year?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, Yueqin is nine years old this year." Yue Qin felt the warm gaze of the Queen Mother, and her heart was also a little warm, and she said softly.

"Oh, how many years younger than Yu'er?" The Queen Mother thought of her grandson, so she asked again: "What about Yueqin's physiognomy and birthday?" ”

Ji Yueqin didn't know why the Queen Mother wanted to ask about her physiognomy and birthday, so she replied honestly: "Back to the Queen Mother's words, Yueqin is a sheep and was born in the thirteenth day of late spring. ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, her eyes narrowed into a slit with laughter, and she remembered that Ji Yueqin had just come from here, so she no longer asked Ji Yueqin but said to her: "Yueqin, the mourning family knows that you have suffered these days. In the future, you will live in the Qianxi Palace of the mourning family, and if anyone in this palace embarrasses you, you will tell the mourning family, and the mourning family will make the decision for you. ”

Ji Yueqin listened to the Queen Mother's words, and her heart was a little warm, but after all, she was still under the fence, and she still tried to be as careful as possible in this deep palace.

"Thank you Queen Mother, then Yueqin will be bothered by Niangniang. Please also ask the mother not to be noisy. Yueqin got up and made a big salute to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother pulled Ji Yueqin and said, "I think back then, your mother called me Aunt Xue......" seemed to think of something, and it was a long sigh.

Ji Yueqin heard the Queen Mother mention her mother, and her heart was also sour, but seeing the Queen Mother's appearance should be very good to her mother, so her eyes were red.

When the Queen Mother saw Ji Yueqin's sadness, she immediately stopped the topic and instructed Xiuzhu: "Xiuzhu, Yueqin has also suffered these days, so ask the imperial dining room to prepare some nourishing food for Yueqin to make up for it." ”

After speaking, he seemed to think of something: "Take Yueqin to live in the West Palace, and you will follow Yueqin in the future." ”

only listened to Xiuzhu smile in response to the Queen Mother's words, and took Ji Yueqin to the West Hall to settle down.

After hearing the news, the one in the Fengxi Palace was even more furious, Duan Rou, you are gone, but now your daughter is back. God still favors you, but I still want you to live in his heart. You married Ji Ji, and you left Dayu. Why, why did God let you die but let your daughter come back. Why are you married to someone else, and he still doesn't have himself in his heart? Why!

There was silence in Fengxi Palace, no one dared to step forward to provoke the angry queen, and the palace maids had to wait for her anger to subside.
