d the person into his embrace and directly used teleportation, in the next moment the two were already sitting on the bed in their bedroom.The young woman glanced at the Empyrean Lord before her. Hmm,...Today's palace feast is to celebrate two things, one is the Emperor accepting a disciple, and the other is the betrothal ceremony of the Emperor and the Empress. 。Since it was an engagement banquet, the Emperor and Empress would definitely attend together. Therefore, Ye Wenyan couldn't leave with his family like an outsider, politely departing from home and entering through Zhaofeng Gate. 。She was to enter the palace ahead of schedule, and she would use the Deyang Gate, which is the gate that officials use when they go to court. 。So the palace sent an advance party to pick him up, headed by Lian Shi. He received Ye Wen with utmost formality, escorting him out of his home and onto a palanquin. Then, they proceeded in an orderly fashion towards the Imperial Palace. 。This time, only the maidservant Zhu'er accompanied her. People from all directions watched Zhu'er follow Ye Wenyan onto the imperial carriage together, and suddenly they all envied this maid. 。To be a maidservant for the Empress, wouldn't that be the same as being a servant to His Majesty like the Ji clan of Quanzhou Although it's still slavery, from now on, no one will dare to truly treat her as a slave. 。Ye Wen sat in the palanquin, even after traveling a considerable distance out of the city, she could still feel the envious or jealous glances thrown at her by people on the street. 。Even the little maidservant felt a little uncomfortable, silently pulling down another layer of curtains inside the palanquin. 。" Lian Shih laughed out loud, "You'll have to get used to it. Once this palace banquet is over, Night Fourth Sister will be officially betrothed to the Imperial Sovereign as the Empress. Even before the wedding, she can exercise the powers of an Empress." 。As your handmaiden, you naturally rose in status alongside Your Majesty the Empress. 。Look at my position in the palace and outside now, see You'll be just like me later on. Everyone will have to respect you, even those princes! 。"
Zhuier was listless and melancholy. Despite her promotion, she showed no joy whatsoever, only offering Chen Shi a bitter smile. " 。She: "If I could, I'd rather not have had this palace banquet, or that this palace banquet would never end. 。Because as soon as the palace banquet ended, my older sister and the Emperor would be leaving. They didn't take me with them. 。"Master, did the Emperor take you"
Lian Shi shook his head. "No." 。But I've gotten used to it. When the previous emperor was in power, Your Majesty once went on a trip, and he didn't bring me along that time either. 。It's nothing, Zhu'er. They are just traveling the world, giving time for the Emperor to grow up. They will be back in a few years. 。"Years" Zhu'er panicked, "Years Shouldn't it be just a few months at most half a year before you come back What do you mean by years Could it be that you will be gone for several years" She turned to look at Ye Wenyan, "Sister, is this what you plan You mustn't scare me! If it really takes so many years, just take me with you. Otherwise, when you come back, I... I will be old." 。" That's not so exaggerated, is it I won't be gone for years. Maybe a year or two at most, and I'll be back soon." 。"It won't be long, even if it takes a year or two." 。Sister, what important thing needs you to leave for so long Can't it wait" She shook her head, "No, you wouldn't understand." 。Only I and the Emperor know about that matter, or…” she paused, then continued, “Or perhaps County Princess Zhaolian knows as well.” 。So this departure of ours, we may travel with Princess Zhaolian. 。"Last night, I didn't take a carriage. I walked using magic, so it wasn't convenient to bring me along." 。“Are you really going to leave with Princess Zhaolian today” Zhuier was unhappy, “Isn’t it still the same as taking me Why can’t I come along if we are taking a carriage” Ye Wenyan shook her head and didn’t say anything more to her. Instead, she turned to Lian Shi and asked, “Did Shi Lifen tell us about going out” Lian Shi nodded, “He did, but he only mentioned that you are traveling with the fourth sister and didn’t mention where.” 。It turns out that the events at the two banquets in Yuhua Pavilion these past few days have reached Yanhuagong. When Lord Yun heard about it, he said, regardless of the Emperor or Zhuier, they are both relying on your presence in the capital, so they dare to humiliate Prince Suyuan and the Grand Priest so recklessly. If you weren't here, they certainly wouldn't dare to be so brazen, and they might even only treat the people of Suyuan with courtesy and suffer humiliation themselves. 。"
Zhua'er listened and frowned, “I definitely won’t. Even if I die, I have to get my breath back first.” 。But Quan Qingcheng... he's different from me. He's the Emperor, his life doesn't just belong to him, it belongs to all the people below him as well. 。Therefore, these words of Master Yun could be possible on him, after all, he first considers the pros and cons when doing things. 。“
At that, Lian Shih nodded in approval. "The girl has grown up, she's more sensible now" 。“Then, looking at Ye Wen again, “This old slave also thinks that Lord Yun should...” 。The Emperor may still rely on Lord Di Zun, but he must deeply depend on you, Fourth Sister. That's why he is so bold and confident. 。I wonder if Your Majesty will be able to adjust after you and the Divine Emperor leave. 。But please rest assured, even if the two of you are not in the capital, the Yanhuagong here will keep an eye on the court and ensure that the Emperor is not too embarrassed. 。" Ye Wenyan nodded slightly, "Thank you, Lian Gonggong, for taking care of my younger brother. And this maid of mine, please take care of her as well." 。“ Lord, where did you hear this You are the future empress, and that makes you the mistress of Yan Hua Palace." 。As a servant, I have dedicated my life to serving the Yanhu Palace. It is my duty to serve the Emperor and Empress, so there is no need for thanks or gratitude. 。What's more, this little brat Zhu'er is my apprentice. It's only right that I take care of her. 。"
The little girl sniffed, "I won't let you take care of me for nothing. When you get too old to walk, I'll send you off." 。"
Lien Shih chuckled, "Fourth Sister, don't you see It's back now, isn't it"
Ye Wenyan also laughed and looked at Lien Shih for a while before asking, "How old is Master Lien this year"
Lien Shih replied, "Fifty-six. At most, I can still serve the Emperor for four more years" 。He arrived here and let out a heavy sigh, “It's really hard to leave! The mountains and rivers are so beautiful, and I get to serve the only immortal down here. Even if I lived to be one hundred years old, it wouldn't be enough!” 。
Alas, human life is fleeting, a mere seventy years at most, and it passes by in the blink of an eye.
"At times, he felt very lonely. He asked Ye Wen, "Sister Si, will you be able to break through this ten-year lifespan I once heard from the Emperor, that Sister Si, you are a fairy and won't be bound by the earth's restrictions. Is this true" Ye Wen smiled, “It might be true! I don’t know either, after all, I haven’t lived to that age yet" 。However, the reason why my master, Li Yubian, and I chose to leave Lin'an was not simply for traveling across the seas and giving the ruler of Northern Qi an opportunity to grow. Ultimately, we sought to find out why the lifespan of humans had been imprisoned. 。
But if there is to be a breakthrough, it is very likely that humans will have to experience some suffering and hard work. 。" Lian Shi's eyes widened, "Is that really possible" Ye Wen nodded, "Yes," 。Since there could be changes four hundred years ago, it means this land wasn't originally supposed to be like this. 。If something can deteriorate, it can also improve; it's just that we haven't found the reason yet. 。I want to give it a try. If I can solve this, it would be a great gift from me, the Empress, to the people. 。Lian took a deep breath, unable to hide his astonishment. 。
Zhuier suddenly wasn't so insistent about whether she could accompany her older sister on a journey to the clouds.
Turns out sister was going to do such a big thing, that maybe she really didn't need to bring her along. 。The palanquin stopped in front of Deyang Gate, but the forbidden army guarding Deyang Gate did not let them get out. Someone stepped forward to explain: "Your Majesty has an order, and His Majesty has an order, please ask Empress Dowager to enter the palace through Junmen, to show solemnity!""Go through Junmen" Lian Shi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded immediately, "Yes, Empress Dowager must definitely go through Junmen." 。The palanquin turned a corner and continued on toward the imperial gate. 。Then Zhu'er asked him, "What is Jun Men Is it different from Deyang Men" Lian Shi replied, "Deyang Men is the palace gate that officials use to go to court. It's not the main gate. Jun Men is the true main gate of the imperial palace." 。Only the emperor is allowed to pass through the Imperial Gate. Even the Empress may only do so once, on her wedding day. After that, she has no right to leave or enter through the Imperial Gate for the rest of her life. 。Before I came, I was thinking that since my elder sister and the Emperor haven't held their wedding yet, they would definitely leave from Jun Gate on their wedding day. Since today is the betrothal banquet, leaving from Deyang Gate is almost a certainty. 。But the old slave still thinks he has fallen short. For the Emperor and the Emperor, the fourth sister is equal in authority. The Junmen will always be open to the fourth sister. 。"
The girl nodded, “That’s right, my elder sister is naturally higher in status than the empress, so she can naturally enter the imperial palace.” 。"
Ye Wen didn't mind which palace gate to go through; she just told Zhuier and Lian Shi, "Before I and Shi Li Yuan leave Lin'an, we will definitely settle the matter of Prince Su Yuan and the Grand Priest, but other matters can only rely on the emperor himself." 。The past two days at Yuhua Pavilion, I let you run wild, letting you ridicule and humiliate Prince Suyuan without restraint. Firstly, it was to really suppress the arrogance of the people from Suyuan, and secondly, I wanted to indulge you this time. 。While I am away from the capital, such an opportunity will probably not arise again. 。So, cherish the happy moments you have now, whether you're joking around or arguing. Treasure them all!The Emperor and Empress enter the palace. The Emperor leads his ministers to kneel before the gate, collectively welcoming... 。Yè Wēn Yán had never seen such a grand display before. She simply walked towards Quán Qīngchéng, personally helped him up, and then raised her voice to address him: "You are my younger brother. Even if I am to marry the Imperial Sovereign in the future, you need not pay me such a grand bow." 。"
This was said to the ministers, indicating that she recognized her younger brother, Quan Qingcheng, and also showing her determination to protect him. 。Hearing this, everyone present understood. This was a reminder to recognize the situation. The emperor now had no backing. 。On the contrary, he had the greatest support in the world—Mount Yanhua. 。Noodles reported expressionlessly. 。Quan Qingyun nodded, "Hang it at his Li family's door." 。" Pingyang took the order and left, carrying the human skin. " 。Li Changshan was so scared that his teeth...
