In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the engagement of Yuwenyou and the lord of Wusun, and the day of Qintian's supervision, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and the autumn was high and cool, because it was about the friendship between the two countries, so the ceremony was particularly grand.

In fact, this so-called engagement is to announce in public who Princess Lin'an is, and then send all kinds of gifts to the Wusun people in a beautiful manner, and then the ceremony is completed, and then wait for the day to get married. Of course, a set of etiquette outside must be done sufficiently, and the wives in the palace are indispensable to gather together to witness this excitement.

Yu Wenchu was the deputy envoy, and he disappeared on the fifth watch, Mingzhu got up slowly to freshen up and eat breakfast, and waited until it was dark before boarding the car into the palace. Left and right she is watching the excitement, and the foreign women involved in this matter will not go to the palace of the Empress Dowager until the end of the ceremony.

Walking slowly all the way, I finally arrived in the palace, there was still some distance from the Changxin Palace, I heard the laughter inside, the palace people Mulberry was waiting outside, and when she saw her coming, she greeted her happily and saluted: "The slave maid greets the princess." ”

Seeing that Mingzhu had waived her courtesy, she stood up with a smile and went to help Mingzhu: "The Queen Mother was talking about it last night, for fear that she would have a bad memory, and she kept telling Aunt Mu to remember to let the imperial kitchen make food for you, and woke up early this morning, sat and waited for the princess to come, seeing that the sun was so high, and the princess had not yet come, she was anxious, and asked Aunt Mu, don't you oversleep this girl again, right?" The king of England is really, I don't know how to remind her! Then let the slave and maid wait outside here, and you can be considered to be here! ”

Mingzhu is quite ashamed, because of the poisoning of herself, so her aunt has always remembered herself, although there are palace people who pass news to each other, but close to the people who remember it, no matter how good it is to listen to others, it is always not as good as what she has seen with her own eyes. I originally wanted my aunt to rest for a while, but I didn't want my aunt to worry about it, I knew that this was the case, I should have gotten up with Yu Wenchu and entered the palace early to accompany my aunt. So he quickened his pace and walked into the palace in three steps and two steps.

The people in the main hall had almost arrived early, because it involved foreign county lords, and there were many foreign women in it, and even a few elderly eldest princesses were also listed. The Empress Dowager was sitting on the head of the seat, talking to several eldest princesses of the same generation and the old duchess, and the Empress Dowager Min did not sit down, but stood behind the Empress Dowager decently, pinching the shoulders of the Empress Dowager.

Concubine Min sat farther away, with Fu Ning standing behind her, and Concubine Xiao and a few concubines and concubines with sons, speaking softly and in a low voice. Further down, there are several princes and princesses of the previous generation, Yu Wenxue's stepmother Shouwang step-concubine is also present, Shouwang step-concubine's face is not very good-looking, and there is a faint green shadow under her eyes, but she is still smiling, and whispering and laughing with the people next to her.

Then there are the princesses of her generation, Yu Wenchu's third and fifth brothers were executed for treason a long time ago, and there is nothing left, of course there is no place for their wives here; The fourth brother died early due to illness, and the princess sat there like a wood carving, and her new clothes seemed to be covered with a layer of ash; In addition, the remaining second brother Fu Wang was a dead princess, and a side concubine came, and she sat there as if she was a head lower than others, leaning sideways and restraining her hands and feet; Otherwise, it is the princess of Huayang, who is still round and bulging, childish, and wants to take the posture of the princess of Duanjun, tense her body and face, and she doesn't smile at all, as if she is afraid that laughing will affect her image. As for Yu Wenlong of Xingba and Yu Wenyou of Xingjiu, one has not yet decided on the candidate for the main concubine, and the other is deciding, of course, there is no trace of their female dependents here.

Below, there was a group of children from all the major palaces, all of them laughing and grinning, talking and eating in a low voice, exchanging feelings with each other, and when they saw someone coming in, they just raised their heads casually and continued to have fun. Mingzhu swept around, didn't see Yu Wenxue's shadow, and felt sorry in her heart, it seemed that she couldn't see anyone before Yu Wenxue and her relatives Wusun.

"Mingzhu, come here! See for yourself, this room full of people, count you alone to come the latest! How should I punish you? Empress Dowager Min was the first to discover Mingzhu, and immediately stopped and waved to her with a smile, indescribably amiable and intimate.

Mingzhu knew that the Empress Dowager Min was afraid that the Empress Dowager would count the poisoning of herself some time ago on her head, so she wanted to quickly express her closeness and wash away the suspicion, so she walked over with kindness and said coquettishly: "The Empress Dowager is not strange, I want to be the first to enter the palace, but who told me to live the farthest?" ”

What Mingzhu said was not wrong originally, among all the palaces, Yuwenchu's Ying Wangfu was the farthest from the imperial city. It is said that Emperor Wen selected a place to build the prince's palace for the three sons of Xing 4, Xing 5 and Xing 6 at one time, but if there were too many buildings at one time, the suitable land would not be enough. Everyone wants their mansion to be closer to the imperial city, because the closer to the imperial city, the more expensive it is, the more it means that they are favored and expensive, and only the unfavored prince will be sent far away, because the imperial father doesn't want to see you, so let you live far away.

Emperor Wen wants to have a bowl of water, but he can't ask other ministers or clans to make room for his son, but let anyone live farther away, and he is afraid that his son will complain that he is partial. When he was in a dilemma, Yu Wenchu took the initiative to bring it up, saying that he was small and was willing and should be polite to his two elder brothers. As soon as Emperor Wen was happy, he set aside a large piece of land for him a little farther away and built a large mansion in a decent manner, while the mansions of the other two princes left near the imperial city were not as good as the British Palace, they were all old mansions and new mansions, which were very narrow.

This is not the end, when Emperor Zhengqian ascended the throne, he was afraid that his younger brothers would not listen to him, so he first viciously cut off the heads of the dishonest third prince and the fifth prince, deprived the title and confiscated the family property, and the wives and children were all killed, and then the next thing was to appease the obedient younger brothers. So the British Royal Mansion threw out a large part of the other palaces, not to mention the splendor, the scenery is beautiful and spacious.

The major royal palaces are envious and jealous, and they feel that the king of England is really making a lot of money. - The location is said to be far from the imperial city, and it is still a prime location. At this time, Mingzhu mentioned this stubble, and suddenly a group of princesses looked at her with the wrong eyes, this is showing off in disguise, right? A large group of us are crowded into a pile, and it is difficult to turn around, and you little two live so spaciously, you dare to be too far away!

Empress Dowager Min saw everyone's eyes clearly, and immediately smiled: "This girl, if you get cheap, you will be good!" Do you want to ask your aunts and sisters-in-law if they are willing to change houses with you? ”

"I don't care, but unfortunately I can't be the master, I want to ask our Highness." Mingzhu lightly put the responsibility on Yu Wenchu, and turned around with a smile to salute the Empress Dowager.
