Chapter 96: Entering the Palace for the First Time

On the same day, Zhao Yue received the news of the summons from the palace. Along with the summons edict, there were also several old women in the palace and minor officials from the Ministry of Rites who taught etiquette.

There are many rules that must be followed when entering the palace.

For example, some etiquette, some titles, salute postures, where you can and cannot go in the palace...

This is what the old women in the palace and the subordinate officials in the Ministry of Rites wanted Zhao Yue to understand.

Ever since...

For three consecutive days, Zhao Yue was tortured by these people in turn.

Finally, their requirements were met and they could enter the palace to have an audience.

Zhao Yue wore decent clothes, got on the carriage prepared by the inner court, walked along the Qingxi River, and finally walked onto Zhuque Avenue, heading towards Jiankang Palace.

For Zhao Yue, entering the palace was also the first time for a young lady to get married. The scene along the way was quite novel.

Speaking of which, Zhao Yue himself is quite a homebody. He usually stays at home and doesn't go out much. It has been several months since then. As a result, except for participating in banquets or going on safari and other activities, he has never left.

Clear Creek Manor.

To a certain extent, this is naturally a good thing, but judging from this era, this is definitely not a good thing.

Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.

It is true that there is a golden house in the book, but if you only indulge in the book, you will inevitably end up like Zhao Kuo talking about it on paper.

Entering Jiankang City from Xiye Gate, you will pass by numerous important government offices along the way.

For example, the Weiwei's Mansion in charge of the imperial guards of the palace, the residence of the left and right generals, and a little further in, Zhongshu Menxiasheng, Zhongshu Sheng, Menxiasheng, Menxiasheng, Secret Pavilion, Yongfu Province, and Taisheng will come into view.

.

Even though Zhao Yue had seen the world, he couldn't help but be shocked by the Jiankang Palace.

Big, too big!

The layout of the Jiankang Palace was neater than that of other palaces. The palace walls had three layers, the inner and outer. The palace's general institutions and garrisons were arranged within the outer palace walls. At this time, the dormitories of the central institutions were also built here.

The central government offices are arranged in the second layer of the palace wall. The court hall and ministerial office are still on the east side, and there is a door to the south leading out of the palace. On the west side, there are Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, Secret Pavilion (Royal Library) and the Prince's Office.

I live in Vinh Phuc Province, etc.

The third layer of walls is the real palace. The front is the court area, with the main hall Taiji Hall and the East Hall and the West Hall parallel to it; the back is the sleeping area, and the front is the Qiandian Hall, also known as Zhongzhai.

At the back is the Xianyang Hall, the back bedroom, each of which is a group of palace courtyards. The two groups overlap each other, with wing halls built on both sides, forming a parallel layout of three halls similar to the Taiji Hall.

The three halls of Taiji, Shiqian and Xianyang, as well as the gate to the south of Taiji Hall and the main entrance of the palace together form the central axis of the whole palace. To the north of the sleeping area is the inner garden Hualin Garden.

Such a magnificent and luxurious palace is still unparalleled among the palaces of all dynasties in China.

It can be seen that the ancient rulers enjoyed it a lot.

Zhao Yue thought that this carriage would take him to the Xianyang Palace, but he didn't expect that the carriage would take Zhao Yue to the Hualin Garden in the Neiyuan after three turns and five twists.

It seems that I don't want to see him in Xianyang Hall.

After getting off the carriage in front of the Hualin Garden Gate of the Inner Garden, two palace ladies had been waiting here for a long time.

Being led by the palace maid, Zhao Yue slowly entered the inner garden, Hualin Garden.

It’s quite a sight!

Brilliant and colorful, elegant and verdant, big banyan trees cover the sky, small banyan trees cover the sun, ginkgo trees penetrate the sky, and weeping willows line the lake. In winter, there are cold plums and frost, green bamboos welcome the snow, in spring, begonias bloom, and plum blossoms compete for beauty. Various scenery are dotted here and there,

Exotic flowers and grasses are widely planted among them. Bees, butterflies and flowers shuttle among them, making the winding path mesmerizing.

After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, I finally saw a pavilion in the garden.

This building is called Chaori Tower and has two floors. It occupies a large area. After following the palace maid into the Chaori Tower, Zhao Yue also saw the Empress Dowager Yu Wenjun and the head of Sui'an County, Sima Xingnan, who were in the building.

"Young man pays homage to the Queen Mother."

According to the etiquette taught a few days ago, Zhao Yue changed his name to Cao Min at this time.

but...

So what?

Now that I call myself a boy, what can Queen Mother Yu Wenjun say?

"Get up!"

Regarding such etiquette, Yu Wenjun was not good at it.

Sima Xingnan, the head of Sui'an County, was able to develop her current character, which is inseparable from her, Yu Wenjun.

Yu Wenjun is wearing a pale white palace dress, but it is elegant but has a bit of aristocratic temperament. The wide skirt meanders behind her, elegant and luxurious. Her black jade-like black hair is simply tied into a flying fairy bun, with a few plump and round pearls casually

Decorate your hair to make dark cloud-like hair appear softer, shinier and moisturized.

The smooth and white face exudes sharp-cut coldness; under the long and drooping eyelashes, the deep eyes shine like black crystals, the high nose, the beautiful lip shape, and the good temperament exuding from his body.

Complex, like a mixture of various temperaments, all showing nobility and elegance, and also having its own unique etherealness and handsomeness!

What a beauty!

Wait a moment...

What am I thinking?

Zhao Yue quickly put his thoughts back.

He knelt down on a deerskin cushion and was immediately served with wine and delicacies by the palace maid.

"I heard that Lang Jun went to Wuyi Lane a few days ago and met with Situ, but?"

Are you here to question me?

Zhao Yue was not nervous at all, and his face was dotted with a very relaxed smile.

"It's true."

"I heard that Situ wants to marry Wang's daughter to you. Is this possible?"

"It's true."

When Sima Xingnan saw Zhao Yue's appearance, his nose felt sour, he snorted coldly and said:

"My princess heard that the Wang girls look more like gods. When you see them, your soul will probably be taken away. I am afraid that you will directly agree to marry the Wang girls."

Why is there so much vinegar in these words?

Zhao Yue joked on the side: "The Wang girls are as beautiful as immortals. Not only are they as beautiful as immortals, they are also considerate and considerate. They are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Whatever they are asked to do, they will do it.

It is a beautiful thing to get along with them.”

"you!"

Sima Xingnan immediately became furious and wanted to rush forward and engage in a full-scale martial arts showdown with Zhao Yue.

"Hahaha, please don't disturb me, Lord. Even if they are like gods, they are not as safe as the Lord in front of me. Otherwise... I won't even come to see you today."

"Why are you here to see me? You are obviously here to pay homage to your mother. You are so shameless. You..."

Sima Xingnan didn't expect that Zhao Yue would use this trick of playing hard to get, and his face turned red instantly, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Yu Wenjun looked at his daughter and his prospective son-in-law talking to each other, and the offensive and defensive momentum was obvious.

Although my daughter looks strong, she is no match for the husband of the Zhao family. She was defeated with just a few words.

"It is indeed important to summon you today. The first thing is your marriage to the county lord. The second thing is a major event for the court and the people of the world!"

These two things...

In fact, you don’t need to tell me, I already know it.
Chapter completed!
