It's the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Early in the morning, four palace chariots came, and from them came down two officials of Zhongshu Province, several palace maids holding gift boxes, several eunuchs holding ritual vessels, and a group of horseback guards.

They came to the gate of Jiang's house and shouted, "There is a decree in the holy!"

The little guy guarding the door jumped up in surprise and hurriedly ran into the backyard to report.

Chunniang and her daughter got up early, put on new clothes, and were preparing breakfast, when they were startled by the report of the little girl, and immediately called their two sons and Jiang Quan Huzi to go to the door to receive the order.

A group of people were welcomed into the main hall to read the decree, and the family prepared the incense case and knelt down to listen to the decree.

It turned out that the emperor invited his ministers and their families to a banquet in the Taihe Hall today, and let the Jiang family enter the palace for the banquet.

There are also two holy decrees, one is to crown Xu Chunniang as a person of Liupin'an, and give a set of dress ribbons and a book.

In addition, Jiang Yingbao was named the county lord of Qinchuan County, and he was given a dress ribbon and a jade butterfly, as well as a number of corresponding ritual utensils, eight palace people, a county lord's mansion, a sedan chair, and twelve guards.

Looking at the palace maids and eunuchs holding ritual vessels, Sakura Bao was a little confused.

A general servant smiled and said, "Lord Qinchuan, if you don't hurry up and accept the order, you have to go to the palace to thank you when you turn back."

Sakura Bao hurriedly kowtowed.

Holding the holy decree and the jade butterfly in his hand, he didn't know what to say for a while.

Unexpectedly, the master made her the county lord, and also made Qinchuan County a fief for her.

This is the treatment only the daughter of a prince or a county prince.

After receiving the order, Chun Niang and her son wanted to stay with the secretary and wait for someone to eat, and the two shook their heads: "We have to go back to restore our lives, so we will stay soon."

Seeing this, Jiang Jie hurriedly took two big red seals and sent them to the two housekeepers, and several eunuchs also had a red seal each.

Seeing off the herald officer, the family looked at the eight palace people.

A lady of the palace saluted Sakura Baofu: "Nu Meixiang, please say hello to the county lord."

Another palace maid also squatted down and saluted: "The county lord is blessed, and the slave name is Lanxiang."

"Nu Lotus ......"

"Slave name Akika......

Four eunuchs also came to salute: "Guixiang, Jin Xi, Yulian, Yu Dahai, please say hello to the county lord."

Sakura nodded and told them to get up.

Mei Xiang, the maid of the palace, said: "Wait for the county lord to enter the palace to thank you, and let the slave serve you and put it on."

"Okay." Sakura Bao walked into the house with A-Niang in her arms.

Chun Niang will also wear the six-grade life woman dress today, put on a ribbon, go to the palace to thank her, and participate in the palace banquet by the way.

In addition, she and her daughter also listened to Mei Xiang talk about the rules of the palace, as well as etiquette.

Fortunately, these palace maids can also accompany them when they enter the palace this time, even if they can't remember it, it shouldn't be rude to have palace maids on the side.

The four palace maids dressed Yingbao's mother and daughter, put on makeup, and then stood aside with their hands down.

Sakura's dress is longer than A-Niang's, and the back of her head is dragged to the ground, which looks particularly majestic.

After Chun Niang put on a life lady dress, her momentum was also raised in an instant, and her face was delicate, which was no worse than those noble ladies from families.

Subsequently, the family entered the palace for a banquet together, but Jiang Quan was not in the invitation list.

Fortunately, Jiang Quan had a big heart, and after seeing off the third aunt and the little cousin, he went back to the house by himself and counted the money on the kang.

When Sakura's car arrived in front of the imperial gate, he saw the carriages and sedan chairs crowded with officials.

Her carriage is an Oshinomiya carriage and can be accessed directly.

Eunuchs and guards opened the way, and the crowd at the door moved out of the way.

Drive into the imperial city, enter the Xuanyou Gate, and follow the north-south street to the front of the Huitong Gate outside the Zichen Palace.

As soon as you pass through the Huitong Gate, you will find the Imperial Palace.

There is the imperial kitchen of the Shangshi Bureau of the province of Dianzhong in the gate, as well as the Shang Medicine Bureau, the Shang Yu Bureau, the Shang Yi Bureau, the Shang She Bureau and the Shang Yuan Bureau, a total of six Shang Bureaus, and the guards are extremely strict at ordinary times.

Those who can enter through this gate are the cronies and close attendants of the emperor and the palace concubine.

It's going to be out the door at the moment, know

Miscellaneous personnel such as provincial, imperial medicine, personal officials, officials, chariot courtyards, yellow courtyards, and soldiers of the inner divisions are ready to be summoned at any time.

The people in charge of purchasing and paying tribute in the palace also entered the palace from here.

Ying Bao and Ah Niang got out of the car, surrounded by several palace maids, and walked into the Huitong Gate.

After coming to the side hall next to the Zichen Palace, the Wenhe Palace, Mei Xiang said that the emperor would stay here for a while.

At the gate of Wenhe Palace, there are indeed many eunuchs and palace maids, and it seems that the emperor is already in the palace.

After the briefing, Sakura and Chunniang walked into the hall.

I saw Zhou Wuchang wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, wearing a crown woven of gold wire, and sitting on the dragon chair.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed with Jin'an!"

The mother and daughter gave Zhou Wuchang three bows and nine bows in a proper manner.

Zhou Wuchang smiled: "Get up. Bestow a seat."

The palace people on both sides immediately brought two round stools.

After thanking Sakura and A-Niang, she sat down on the stool.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, is that Qinchuan County really a fief for the disciples?"

Zhou Wuchang bowed his head.

Sakura Bao smiled: "Then I will go back to Qinchuan County to live in the future."

"If you want to be beautiful, you need to stay in the capital." Zhou Wuchang took a sip of the teacup.

"Why?"

Zhou Wuchang: "You haven't gotten married yet. When you choose a husband, you can move to Qinchuan County."

Sakuraho: "......"

Zhou Wuchang said again: "Today's palace banquet, you just take a closer look, if you think which son is in line with your eyes, tell me."

Sakura's head is full of black lines.

Zhou Wuchang: "You are not young anymore, there are very few seventeen-year-old unmarried women in this dynasty, every time I go to the court, I have to listen to those old ministers a few times. You and Zhou Hao and Zhang Min, I don't know how many times I have been impeached by those old ministers, and I am helpless."

"What if the person who meets my eye is not in the capital?" Sakura Po tried to die and struggled.

Zhou Wuchang: "It doesn't matter, as long as you tell which one it is, I will give you a marriage."

"What if he doesn't agree?" Sakura asked with a wink.

Zhou Wuchang snorted, "It's okay, I'll call him over and ask."

Seeing that Yingbao was about to speak again, the emperor hurriedly said, "The banquet will be held immediately, and you should go to the Vertical Arch Hall first."

The vertical arch hall is next to the Zichen Palace, and the palace concubines and women are all attending the banquet in this hall today.

Seeing that the master opened his mouth to drive people away, Sakura Bao had to say goodbye to A-Niang.

When I came to the vertical arch hall, there were already many women sitting in the hall.

Under the guidance of the eunuchs in the palace, Ying Bao and Chun Niang sat down separately.

This can't be helped, because the grades are different, and the position arrangements between her and A-Niang are also different.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Luo are also there, and their grades are the same as Chunniang's, they are all Liupin'an people, but they sit together.

Seeing A-Niang sitting next to Mrs. Wu, Ying Bao felt a little relieved, and nodded to the ladies on the left and right.

She is the county lord of the second grade, and her status is equivalent to that of the royal family, and she sits with several first- and second-grade ladies.

Mei Xiang secretly told her that among these ladies, there are Concubine Yao Shu's mother-in-law, Concubine Lu Xian's mother-in-law, and two of them are Concubine Chen Hui's mother and Concubine Zhong De's mother.

They don't look very old, just like Chunniang.

"You are the female disciple of the Holy One?" Mrs. Lu asked with a smile.
