On both sides of the central avenue in front of the Zide Hall, there are two rows of maple trees, which are already bright red at this time, and are extremely gorgeous. When the autumn wind blows, the treetops make a pleasant rustling sound, and pieces of red leaves fall, just like the falling red leaves in spring.
Li Yueji looked up and saw the yellow double-eaved glazed tiles and red leaves in the depths of the red treetops. The pavilions and towers between the palaces were gorgeous. The surroundings were spacious and clean. The scenery here was very beautiful.
Across the street, a group of palace maids wearing moon-white skirts and carrying baskets came slowly. When they saw Li Yueji and others, they knelt down on the side of the road and bowed before leaving.
The capital of the Great Zhou was not quite what Li Yueji had imagined.
She had never seen such a grand and magnificent place. The people here were not as cunning and difficult as she had imagined. On the contrary, they looked clean, decent and very obedient.
The people in Tokyo are quite nice. Li Yueji couldn't help but praise them softly.
Mu Shang Gong behind him said: There are differences in status. You are the virtuous concubine, and there are only a few people in the palace who have a higher status than you.
Oh, Li Yueji turned around and looked at Mu Shanggong. This strange woman was estimated to be in her thirties, but she was really very kind to her. In an unfamiliar place, Mu Shanggong took care of everything very thoughtfully, which made Li Yueji grateful.
Mu Shanggong said calmly: Your Majesty, as long as you get along well with those people, everyone in the palace will have to obey you.
The group crossed the street and came to a palace with smoke rising from the chimneys. When Li Yueji looked up, she saw three Chinese characters written on it: Yunyun Palace. The railings outside the door were all made of white marble, and there were exquisite patterns carved on them. Li Yueji didn't look closely, but just turned her head to observe curiously.
After entering, there were silk curtains hanging inside, and a pool of steam in the middle. Li Yueji looked at the pool curiously, thinking of the smoke from the cooking outside before, and the hot water might be boiled water, thinking: Bathing is so particular today. However, she did not understand the rules of the Zhou Kingdom Palace.
Unexpectedly, several palace maids came up and pulled Li Yueji's belt without saying a word. She immediately reached out and held it, asking anxiously: What are you doing
A palace maid hurriedly said: We will help Her Majesty the Virtuous Concubine to bathe and change her clothes.
Li Yueji immediately looked back around the pool and saw at least twenty people standing there. Her face suddenly turned red: How can I bathe if you are looking at me
The maid blushed after hearing this: "We are all women. Today we will serve the virtuous concubine. There are five steps.
Mu Shanggong took a look and waved his hand: There's no need to stick to the rules, just turn around.
Everyone responded with a "yes" and turned to face the wall. Mu Shanggong also walked to the door and turned her back to this side. Even so, Li Yueji still felt uncomfortable. She undressed herself and went downstairs to go through the formalities.
When Li Yueji finished washing and dressing, Mu Shanggong seemed to hear the sound, and she said with her back to him: "The clothes of the virtuous concubine are dirty, change into new clothes." Then she advised that if you wear our clothes, people in the palace will be happier with you.
Li Yueji was a little hesitant after hearing this, but she saw a very beautiful dress on a stool, with a light yellow material and golden and purple patterns, and the material was also delicate and bright. Women all like beautiful things, and Li Yueji was also quite tempted, so she wanted to try it on.
She walked over and put on the dresses one by one, then looked down and couldn't help saying: I thought Han'er was very conservative and boring, but these clothes are really...
She was wearing a open-neck silk dress, revealing a large area of snow-white skin above the bodice. The material was also very soft. Li Yueji liked riding horses and archery in Xiazhou, so she had a strong body. Putting on a layer of soft clothes, her body lines could not be suppressed, and she looked very hot.
Unexpectedly, the palace maids praised her and praised her beauty. Mu Shanggong laughed and said: People in the folk are more conservative. There are no men in the palace except His Majesty, so they don't have to care so much. The palace maids want to dress like this, but they are not allowed.
Li Yueji turned around and looked at the clothes she had taken off. She had already worn them, and thought to herself: I'll go back to my residence and change again.
People helped her comb her hair again, put on her headdress, and then went out. They walked when they came, but unexpectedly they went back in a gorgeous carriage.
When Li Yueji got off the car, she felt something was wrong, because it was not where she used to live, but a magnificent palace built on a high platform. She couldn't help asking: What is this place
Mu Shang Gong said: Wansui Palace, every concubine must come to this place.
Li Yueji didn't understand what was going on, and she didn't know whether the Wansui Palace was used for sacrifices or something else, because there were too many etiquettes since she entered the palace. She was brought into a gorgeous and spacious palace, which looked a little empty, with curtains hanging inside to slightly embellish its spaciousness.
At this moment, a man in a yellow robe suddenly walked out of a door. Who else could it be but Guo Shao
Li Yueji then realized that in such a large palace, there was a large bed with a bed curtain. She immediately understood that such a large room was the emperor's bedroom.
Li Yueji immediately put her hands on her chest to cover it and her face turned red.
Guo Shao came over with a smile on his face, looked at her, and even gave her a look, but she didn't know what it meant. Li Yueji blushed, her head was buzzing, her chest was beating like a drum, and she couldn't say a word.
Li Yueji was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.
For a moment, her heart was like the turbulent waves of the sea, and she couldn't tell what she felt. She immediately thought of Mo Zang, whose father and son died at the same time, and she was so cruel to the murderer.
By the time she reacted, Guo Shao was already very close. Li Yueji was very anxious and shouted, "Don't come over here." She waved her hand excitedly to stop Guo Shao and backed away.
Unexpectedly, he felt a pain in his wrist, his arm was blocked by Guo Shao, and then his nails scratched something.
Hearing a scream of pain, Guo Shao put his hand on his neck. When he took his hand away, he saw a bright red blood mark on his neck.
His Majesty Mu Shanggong's voice exclaimed.
Li Yueji found that everyone around her was stunned, as if they were in a trance. Even the air seemed to be frozen.
A eunuch in the distance trembled and said: "My Lady, you are in great trouble!"
Even Guo Shao was stunned. The emperor was actually injured. Even though Li Yueji had never seen a real emperor, she understood that such a person should not be treated like this.
She then remembered the serious consequences of her last mistake.
Mu Shang Gong fell to her knees and kowtowed, saying: "I deserve to die.
Sorry everyone, I was out for some things the past few days and the updates were very unstable. I feel really guilty about that. Starting today, I will update three times a day for the next few days, hoping to make up for it a little.
