Chapter 478: Chapter 479: What is Called Glittering with Gold and Jade
Su Yan glanced towards Chu Yuxiao as he blinked once, then she bowed low before the Emperor, saying,
“Yes, Father-Emperor.”
The words ‘Father-Emperor’ ca out rather stiff from her lips.
Moreover, it even gave her goosebumps…
The Emperor seed very pleased, and laughed heartily again.
He instructed soone to offer them seats, and after chatting for a while, the eunuch Wan respectfully reported:
“Your Majesty, the Empress has sent soone. She requests the presence of the Seventeenth Princess; she wishes to see her.”
“Good, Little Shiqi, you should visit your mother’s bedchamber then.
Knowing that you have regained your senses, she must be eager to see you.”
“Yes.” Su Yan rose to perform a salute, opened her mouth, and, with a dry and forced tone mimicking the speech of the palace, said, “Father-Emperor, your humble daughter takes her leave.”
She suddenly felt that living in the palace was so exhausting.
No matter what one did, etiquette had to be observed.
Life at the Marquis Mansion was so much better, where she could do as she pleased, and besides Chu Yuxiao, no one else dared to manage her.
Now, even Chu Yuxiao dared not govern her actions; she was practically the boss there.
She truly hoped to find the Divine Bead soon and then leave the Imperial Palace far behind…
Walking through the Imperial Palace with the eunuch who had delivered the ssage, Su Yan wasn’t in the mood to observe her surroundings.
But even from what little she had seen on her journey, the majesty and solemnity of the Imperial Palace were abundantly clear.
Moreover, this palace did not feel any less imposing than the Forbidden City.
She guessed it might be because this was where the real Emperor resided, which perhaps made it seem more imposing…
The Emperor’s Imperial Study was not very far from the Empress’s Yihe Palace; they arrived in less than a quarter of an hour.
Without announcing their arrival, the Palace Attendant led Su Yan straight in.
Upon entering, she imdiately experienced what was ant by splendor and grandeur; every single item in the bedchamber was an exquisite treasure, each one incredibly valuable.
In an instant, Su Yan’s eyes were dazzled by the brilliance.
No wonder the dowry was so extravagant when she had married into the family; the imperial kin indeed were the wealthiest people in this world.
Yihe Palace was a vast palace, divided into three chambers.
