"Miss, you must dress more formally today." Xia Shui took out a jewelry box and said, her face looked like she couldn't reject it.
"Of course, I want to go to the Imperial Palace. I can't lose my dignity as a prince." I said, playing with a chick.
Xia Shui was not used to my teamwork, "Miss, did you suffer some sort of stimulation?" Xia Shui said carefully.
"Little girl, why are you so afraid of me? Which girl doesn't like to dress up? I used to be lazy to dress up after seeing those people. Now that I'm going out, I'm sure she'll dress up beautifully."
"Yes, Miss always has the most excuses." Helplessly, Xia Shui took out a comb to comb my hair. Xia Shui's hands became more and more coincidental, and not long later, a beautiful bun appeared on my head. Xia Shui searched through the headdress for a long time, but didn't find any ideas.
"Miss, you're going to wear that dress today. I'll keep it with you." Xia Shui asked.
"Eh, I'll wear the yellow one today." Eh, I'll wear the yellow one today.
Then, she drew exquisite makeup and changed her clothes. The feeling she gave me was completely different now, and I happily turned around two times, then hugged Su Ye's neck, "Su Ye, I love you more and more, so much that your hands can already catch up to the mama in the palace."
"Okay, miss, quickly go find the prince, don't miss the timing." Xia Shui said to my flattery.
"How boring." I curled my lips and flung my sleeves to find Bai Jing.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at Bai Jing's courtyard, I discovered that Bai Jing was also wearing a bright yellow brocade robe. In that instant, I was stunned. The color of our clothes was too similar.
I hesitated for a moment to change my clothes, but when Bai Jing looked at me, he didn't react at all. His expression was very natural, and once again I looked at his sword — naturally, I felt that in this era, clothes and the like were still not popular. The two of us were similar in color, but it wasn't that strange, because I must have thought too much about it, so I didn't care.
"Let's go." After saying that, Bai Jing turned around and left. I had to hurry to catch up with him.
This isn't the first time I've worked with Bai Jing in a carriage, but I still felt a little uncomfortable. After getting on the carriage, Bai Jing took out a book and looked at it seriously. I could only idly play with the beads on my clothes.
Finally, the carriage stopped. When the carriage arrived at the palace, I heard the driver's voice from outside and immediately jumped down from the carriage. It was so fast that the carriage driver grabbed a stool to place on me and looked at my series of actions with shock written all over his face.
Bai Jing maintained his elegance as an elegant young man. He slowly got off the carriage and casually swept his gaze over me before leaving expressionlessly. This is the first time I've seen the real palace.
In the past, I could only watch it on television. When I was young, I dreamed of being able to visit the Forbidden City in the future.
Bai Jing would stop after a few steps to wait for me to catch up. In the end, he couldn't stand it any longer and turned back to look at me. "I don't want to compete in palaces, so don't cause any trouble." Bai Jing warned.
"I know, I don't like to mess around so much." I curled my lips.
Bai Jing is very familiar with the palace, and the palace is very big. Walking from the main entrance to the palace requires me to walk a very long way, and through countless of corridors, my legs are sore from walking, and I lost interest in the scenery. I just wanted to get there quickly, because I remembered Xia Shui said that Bai Jing had the right to run cars in the palace, and the Emperor allowed him to enter the palace without needing to be proud.
"How much longer is left? I can't walk anymore." Finally, I sat down on a nearby chair and panted.
"Just climb those stone steps." Bai Jing pointed at the stone steps 100 meters away from us.
"So many steps." I was really speechless.
"This is the Emperor's royal study. It's already at the minimum."
"Alright, I agree." I could only resign myself to my fate and climb up again. After all, he was the emperor, and he was the oldest here. If he wanted my life, he would have to squash it like he wanted, he would miss my democratic society, where everyone is equal and life is priceless, unlike here where you can disregard life as long as you have the right to.
Finally, he finished climbing the ladder and arrived at the so-called imperial study. It was still alright, but he was just barely able to climb it. This was a very ordinary room, and its location was not ordinary, and its height could not match the cold.
There were soldiers holding weapons outside the door, and the door was closed. When we arrived, one of them went in to report to us. After a while, he came in to salute us and let us in.
In the middle of it was a long table, with ink and paper on it, and a large stack of petitions. The Emperor was sitting at the table, reading the memorial, and seeing us come in, he put down the memorial.
Bai Jing only slightly nodded his head, but I still had to kowtow three more times to the emperor. Xia Shui said that this was the courtesy of thanking the emperor, and after doing all of this, the emperor had someone bring us a chair and even some tea.
"The two of you are wearing interesting clothes today." The Emperor looked at us both.
I was helpless. As expected, if I knew earlier, I would have changed. Bai Jing did not say anything, and I was too lazy to stick to the gun myself. Bai Jing took a sip of tea before saying indifferently. "The Emperor didn't call me that to admire our clothes."
"Of course I have something I need to tell you. Yu Xing, you haven't been to the palace, right? I'll get someone to take you around." The emperor smiled as he sent out the order for them to leave.
I looked hesitantly at Bai Jing, "Don't go too far away, I'll come out and find you." I no longer felt coy. I thanked Grace for her kindness and left under the guidance of a eunuch.
After exiting, I couldn't help but sigh at the sight of Noda's palace. It was indeed spectacular, but the courtyard with its tall walls was depressing. I heard that once a woman entered the palace, she would be trapped here for her entire life.
The eunuch was rather attentive. As he led the way, he introduced the HIA to me. What kind of palace is this, and what kind of people live here? They all explained in great detail. In the modern era, they would definitely be a good narrator.
