Chapter 29 Encounter
The emperor promulgated two imperial decrees for bestowing marriages, one was for Li Min and King Li, and the other was for Li Ying and King Li.

During his lifetime, Zhu Li was the eldest son of Duke Huguo and heir to the title of Duke Huguo.Li Wang is the third prince.These two marriages can be regarded as royal marriages.

It is the utmost etiquette for Lord Wanli to summon Li Min and Li Ying, two women who are about to marry into the main branch of the royal family, into the palace.

When Nian Xia prepared the clothes for Li Min to enter the palace early in the morning, Li Min stretched lazily.I have no idea about this entry.

She misses Li Datong's land more.

Some people say that if you enter the palace to see the emperor, can you really see the emperor?

Not necessarily.

Besides, everyone knew that she was accused of being a widow in the past, and the person who pointed out the marriage happened to be Lord Wanli.Thinking about entering the palace later, the emperor might tell her that he wanted to erect a moral monument for her, Li Min would only feel disgusted.

If it wasn't for the imperial decree, she, Li Min, would have slapped her ass and slipped away.

Two days later, when the time came, a large carriage came from the palace to pick up Li Min and Li Ying from the Shangshu Mansion.

Li Ying walked to the door, reluctantly saying to Wang: "It's good for mother to come here. Ying'er enters the palace to face the saint. There is sister Hua in the palace, so mother doesn't have to worry."

Wang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

Li Min got into the carriage first while the two of them were talking at the door.

After Li Ying said goodbye to Wang Shi, she boarded the carriage and entered the carriage. Seeing Li Min sitting on the right, she walked over and sat on the left.

A soft pillow was placed between the two sisters, as if they were dividing water, and they didn't exchange a word along the way.

What can I say?
What should be said, as early as the moment when the imperial decree came to Shangshu's mansion that day, what should be said has been said.Besides, it's just acting.

Li Min would not do such a scene.

Li Ying, who had been rejected by Li Min's trick, didn't think she could play with Li Min alone anymore, because Li Min had changed and become smarter, and she would no longer be easily fooled by her.

In Li Ying's hand, the handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water was slightly clenched.

The carriage passed through the Shenwu Gate and entered the royal backyard.

It is said that Lord Wanli went to the Empress's Chunxiu Palace when he finished court today.It seems that the arrangement to meet the two of them today is planned in the palace, and they will not meet casually.

Li Min yawned in the car before getting out of the car. After getting out of the car, he remembered that this was the home of the supreme leader of the land. Li Min tidied up his clothes, shoes and hair, not daring to neglect.

All the way led by the eunuch in the palace.On the way, through the imperial garden, there are lush trees, strange trees and strange rocks, a hundred flowers gathered together, pavilions and pavilions, which are too beautiful to behold.

An exquisite birdcage, hanging under the eaves of the Queen's Empress Chunxiu Palace, inside it is a canary, which is immersed in arranging its beautiful feathers.

I heard that the nobles in the palace have nothing to do when they have nothing to do, and they sometimes tease the birds for fun, otherwise, it would be difficult.

The father-in-law, who was holding Fuchen in his hand at the front, entered the door and announced to the people inside: "Your majesty, empress, the people from Shangshu's mansion have arrived."

"Let them in." A loud and powerful male voice said from inside the room.

Presumably the man who spoke was Lord Wanli, the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Min and Li Ying stepped over the threshold one by one.I saw a screen set up in the center of the flower hall. On the screen, various colors of embroidery threads and techniques were used to make all kinds of beautiful flowers emerge on the silk cloth. Hundreds of flowers were in full bloom. There was only one huge peony in the middle, like a flower among a hundred flowers. mother, showing her unique identity.In the corner, clouds and smoke curled up from the top of the three-legged incense burner with nine dragon claws.

A warm pavilion on the left is separated in front of them by a row of bead curtains strung with South Sea pearls. The bead curtain trembles slightly when the breeze blows by.

Li Min and Li Ying knelt down in front of the bead curtain, saluted and knelt down to Jin An.After waiting for a long time, the people inside didn't seem to agree.The two of them did not dare to raise their heads. From their slightly tilted perspective, they seemed to be able to see the two indistinct and noble figures in the warm pavilion through the bead curtain.

One is bright yellow and the other is bright red.

Minghuang is the body of the emperor, and Dahong is the body of the queen.

Lord Wanli and the queen are playing chess, Lord Wanli holds white stones, and the queen holds black stones.Seeing that the white pieces and the black pieces were at the critical point of the battle, the queen hadn't decided where to play the chess pieces for a long time, Master Wanli glanced at the queen and said, "Why not, Zitong?"

The queen stood up, bowed her head and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine has lost."

"Nonsense. I didn't even see that I won. How can you say that I lost?" Seeing that the queen did not agree, Master Wanli lost interest. At this moment, he seemed to realize that there were two people kneeling outside, and shouted, "I I'm so old and confused." Saying that, let the queen return to her place, and dropped the chess pieces in her hand.

Li Ying was so nervous that her whole body trembled, only to hear Master Wanli ask: "These two are the young ladies of the Shangshu Mansion, the younger sisters of Hua Cairen?"

Li Hua was just promoted to the position of talented person by Lord Wanli a few days ago.

When a woman enters the palace, the whole family benefits.The two of them, counting, have benefited from Li Hua's promotion in the harem.Master Wanli liked Li Hua, and he especially mentioned this in front of the two of them.

Li Ying thanked her: "Sister is indebted to the love of the emperor and empress, and the Li family is extremely grateful."

Li Ying has no reason to be unhappy that her own sister is favored in the palace.

Li Min should be the one who said he was unhappy.The only benefit she got from Li Hua's harem promotion this time was that she was sent to the Duke Protector's Mansion as a widow.But Li Min's expression was also indifferent, he neither kowtowed, nor shouted injustice in front of the emperor and empress.

After Master Wanli and the Empress figured out who Li Ying and Li Min were, no, to be precise, they figured out who was going to marry Li Wang as the royal daughter-in-law, and who was sent to the Protector's Mansion to prevaricate the protector. After the lady of the Duke's Mansion, her attitude was immediately clear.

"Is that Ying'er?" the queen said kindly.

Li Ying was terrified and overwhelmed by flattery: "The empress, the ministers are here, listen to the empress's moral instruction."

The queen said: "It looks like a good child. Although King Li is said to be Concubine Jing's son, but when he was a child when his eyes were bad, he lived in the Chunxiu Palace of this palace for a while. This palace regards him as his own." Out of the ordinary."

Master Wanli nodded at the Queen's words.The queen should treat all her sons as her own sons.

From the Queen's words, Li Ying seemed to hear all the benefits of her marrying Li Wang, how could she be so unhappy that her whole body almost trembled.

Next, the Empress had something fetched for her future royal daughter-in-law.A court lady held a silver plate with both hands, put something in it and covered it with a red cloth, and brought it to Li Ying.

Li Ying didn't dare to remove the cloth, and took the silver plate respectfully with both hands.

Seeing this, the empress covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled and said, "It's okay to see, we are all one family." Seeing Li Ying, she still didn't dare, so she revealed the mystery and told Li Ying: "It's a cat. Jade bracelet. Although it is not as good as the Empress Dowager's Lingbo Yanyun, it is still a good bracelet that Concubine Jing found for you after searching for a long time."
