Jiu E shivered instantly at the condition... he didn’t dare agree to it.
However, the Emperor’s words were like gold; once spoken, they couldn’t be nullified just because you didn’t dare agree. What to do? Jiu E proposed to write a letter back to Yuan Country’s king and wait for a reply before making a decision.
After all, Hei Shu was a warrior greatly valued by Yuan Country, and he couldn’t decide on his life or death.
But communication with Yuan Country, even with the fastest horses, would take half a month.
Who has the ti to wait for half a month?
In the end, Jiu E called for an attendant to bring over a cage, which surprisingly contained a Hai Dongqing.
Using this Hai Dongqing to send ssages would take only half a day’s ti.
The Emperor approved, and at that ti the sky was not yet dark.
Yang Ruxin knew, leaving the Palace tonight wouldn’t be early.
She couldn’t just sit under the blazing sun and wait, so with a wave of his hand, the Emperor sent the n to rest at the Wangyue Building nearest to the training ground, while the won went to Lianxiang Pavilion nearest to the Harem to rest; naturally, Concubines could return to their own chambers.
"Sister Ruxin, aren’t you tired?" Qi Zizi, who hadn’t approached proactively before, had been cutely standing near the Empress Dowager. Now that the Empress Dowager was tired and went back to her chamber, Zizi was free.
Yang Ruxin shook her head: "I’m alright."
"Let take you for a stroll, the Palace is really beautiful..."
Yang Ruxin nodded.
"You still get lost yourself, and you want to show others around?" Jiang Fangfei ca over and knocked on Qi Zizi’s head, "Watch out or you two might both disappear..."
Behind her was Hen Ziyue.
Qi Zizi imdiately touched her head sheepishly.
"Co on, if you’re not tired, let show you around..."
"The Forbidden City, the Imperial Garden indeed, it’s truly beautiful." Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but sigh after passing through a Moon Sect door.
In her past life, she had visited the Forbidden City, with tickets costing dozens, but many areas were closed off, and there were too many tourists to really see anything. But now it’s different, everywhere were rockeries, flowing waters, birds, flowers, insects, and fish, as if a painting at every step, with many rare and precious plants and trees.
"A country bumpkin is really just a country bumpkin, no matter how they try to act clever or adorable." Just then, mocking laughter ca from behind.
Yang Ruxin and the others turned their heads to see Zuo Qingqing and Shen Jiayin surrounding a young girl in a purple dress who was walking over, obviously just like her entourage.
Yang Ruxin watched with great interest—seems she had found a backer, just not sure who this backer was.
Jiang Fangfei’s brow instantly furrowed, but she still introduced softly to Yang Ruxin: "That’s Wang Zhengzheng."
Wang Zhengzheng? Yang Ruxin realized, rembering that when Nanny Yu taught her the rules, she ntioned the Palace’s social network and advised to turn away when encountering certain individuals, Wang Zhengzheng being one of them.
Wang Zhengzheng was the granddaughter of Anning Old County Lord.
Anning County Lord was the daughter of old Commandery Prince Qi Tai.
Qi Tai was the current Emperor’s paternal uncle.
It’s said that on the day Wang Zhengzheng was born, the Empress Dowager saw auspicious purple clouds rising, and at that ti, the country was at war with Yuan Country without any news from the border; it was on that day that victory was reported. Thus, the Empress Dowager believed Wang Zhengzheng was an auspicious child and raised her in the Palace from a young age.
With the fondness of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, this girl had certainly beco an existence above all.
