Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 1027: Trying to Enter the Palace
After watching Sikong Mingyue and Jiao Jiao go away, the young man looked away and thanked Liu Yunxiang.

"Take care of yourself first, and then you may see your wife again."

Young nodded, "I will live a good life for her."

The three of them walked to the inn, and Liu Yunxiang remembered that Sikong Mingyue hadn't told her the name of the master yet...

Forget it, she didn’t even know him.

Outside the west city gate, Sikong Mingyue took Jiao Jiao out of the city gate and walked thirty miles to the west. They finally met up with their people. Seeing that everyone was fine, she finally let go of her hanging heart.

After leaving Jiao Jiao to be taken care of by his subordinates, Sikong Mingyue rode his horse to the front of the group and saw Yan Mu squinting at her.

"You really want to escape, right?" Sikong Mingyue asked with raised eyebrows.

Yan Mu was riding a horse and was too lazy to talk to Sikong Mingyue.

"But you can't escape, because my father said that if you dare to escape, he will hand over the Tuoba Siqi brothers and sisters to the court." Sikong Mingyue said with a sly smile.

"You two, father and daughter, have gone too far." Yan Mu said angrily.

"We have also compromised. I won't force you to marry me. As long as you stay in the southwest and help us deal with the court."

"I'm not from the southwest, so I don't have this responsibility, right?"

"Anyway, the Tuoba Siqi brothers and sisters are in our hands."

Yan Mu was speechless. The Southwest King kept his word. He couldn't really leave Tuoba Siqi and Tuoba Feier behind. The key was that these two people could eat, drink and sleep well in the Southwest without worrying about their own situation.

After two days and three nights of driving, we will reach the southwest border in one day.It was approaching noon that day, and just as the group was about to stop and rest, a soldier from the southwest came to deliver a message to them.

"The imperial court and Southwest were fighting in Chongguan Town. Wang Rang Princess and Mr. Yan immediately diverted to Chongguan Town for support."

Upon hearing the news, Sikong Mingyue's expression immediately became solemn. She turned around and told her men, "You will escort these women back to Hongye City. They will be placed in my courtyard in the palace first, and they will be placed in another place after I return."

Women's status in the southwest is low, especially those who are divorced by their husbands or driven back to their natal families. Their natal families regard them as a shame and will not accept them at all.She wanted to go to Dongguan to rescue these women. Her father and the leaders did not agree, so she secretly came out with Yan Mu.

Therefore, she had to arrange for these women to ensure that they still had no way of survival after escaping from death and returning to the southwest.

After telling his subordinates, Sikong Mingyue looked at Yan Mu and said, "Mr. Yan, let's go."

Yan Mu had no choice but to follow Sikong Mingyue and speed towards Chongguan Town.

Liu Yunxiang and his party rested in Dongguan for five days. Aunt Bai's illness finally recovered, and they set out to go west to Kyoto.

Ten days later, they arrived in Kyoto. It was not convenient to stay in an inn, so they rented a courtyard.

Feng Zheng inquired about the news, Zijin and Liu Yunxiang went to buy things, and Aunt Bai cleaned up the house.

In the evening, everyone sat together.

Feng Zheng said first: "It's strange that I haven't heard any news about His Highness. If King Liang brought him back to Kyoto, he might have been locked up secretly and not revealed to the outside world."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, there was another possibility, but she didn't want to think about it and wouldn't believe it.

"In that case, we need to contact the eighth girl first and ask her to help us find out about Yan Mu." Liu Yunxiang said.

They couldn't get in touch with Prince Liang, so they could only find a way through Eight Girls.

Aunt Bai sighed, "But Yu'er lives in the deep palace compound, how can we contact her." This is also a problem.

Liu Yunxiang sighed and said: "We have just arrived in Kyoto, let's get familiar with it first, and then slowly think of a solution."

Feng Zheng nodded, "This is the only way."

The next day, Liu Yunxiang remembered something. The Pei family seemed to have a shop in Kyoto. She asked Feng Zheng to go and ask, and Xu Peixuan would leave some information for them.

When Feng Zheng came back at noon, he said that all the stores Pei had opened in Kyoto had been closed down by the government.

Liu Yunxiang thought that Pei Xuan might have offended the Western Vietnamese court by helping to save Yan Mu, and then sealed up all his shops.

"But I did find out a piece of news." Feng Zheng said this and looked at Aunt Bai, "The palace is recruiting great people, including cooks and maids. It is said that the queen is pregnant, but because she misses her hometown, she has been in a bad mood. Okay, so the emperor ordered the palace to recruit people from great honor to serve the queen."

When Aunt Bai heard that her daughter was pregnant, she was both happy and worried.

"Then I'll work as a cook in the palace!" Aunt Bai said hurriedly.

This is indeed a good opportunity, but Aunt Bai is not suitable.

"You're old, I'm afraid you won't be able to do the heavy work in the kitchen."

And that's not the most important thing. They don't know what kind of situation Liang Yu is in the palace. If they let Aunt Bai enter the palace rashly, they are afraid that she won't be able to handle whatever situation she encounters.

"In this way, you and I will summon the palace maid first, contact the eighth girl first, and then think of a way for you mother and daughter to meet each other." Liu Yunxiang said.

Although Aunt Bai saw her daughter's eagerness, she was also afraid of ruining Liu Yunxiang's affairs, so she nodded in agreement.

He made a decision immediately. Early the next morning, Liu Yunxiang changed into plain clothes, told Feng Zheng to continue to inquire about Yan Mu, take good care of Aunt Bai, and then went to the government with Zijin to answer the call.

There are some Daiei people who live permanently in Kyoto, but they are usually engaged in business, and not many people want to join the palace as maids.Because they were young, good-looking, and had no competition, they were called on the same day.

They were brought into the palace and handed over to a steward of Rongqing Palace.

The stewardess had a solemn face, looked at the two of them a few times, and then warned fiercely: "You are Da Rong people who are cunning by nature, clumsy, and like to be lazy, but this is the Xiyue Palace. You are the most important." So you can put away your laziness, otherwise you will receive a physical lesson!"

Liu Yunxiang was speechless. Is this the impression that the Da Rong people had in the eyes of the Western Vietnamese?
"You should learn the rules first. Only after you have learned the rules can you serve the queen."

"Yes."

The nun in charge was responsible for teaching them the rules. Perhaps she was prejudiced against the Da Rong people. She had a very bad attitude. If they learned quickly, she would say they were perfunctory. If they learned well, she would say they were not practical.

After studying like this for half a month, they were able to go to the outer hall to do some chores.

The other palace maids wore the same palace clothes, the fabric was silk and satin, but they were cheaper ones, but the ones for them were made of cotton.The clothes of other palace maids were hemmed with rabbit fur, but they had nothing.Therefore, walking in the palace, you can tell the difference between them at a glance.

Most of the people in Xiyue are Xianbei people, and the Xianbei people think that they have noble blood and look down on the people from the southwest and the people from the other three countries on this continent, thinking that they are inferior to them.

Today, after lunch.

Liu Yunxiang and Zijin were sent to hoe the grass in the garden. It was already autumn. A gust of wind came, and the leaves fell. The grass also became withered and yellow, but it did not look good in the garden.

When they came over, they saw two gorgeously dressed palace ladies sitting in a pavilion in the distance, and there were many palace ladies waiting outside.
Sitting facing them was an extremely beautiful woman, about thirty years old, who must have been a concubine in the palace. She looked arrogant and seemed not to take the woman sitting opposite her seriously.

The woman opposite was very thin and she was eating porridge with her head down. After just two bites, she tilted her head and vomited.
