Chapter 271 Has the Princess Come of Age?
Yu Banxia said to Miaoyue, "Miaoyue, you stay with the princess today. If I haven't come back, you can go to the palace with the princess at night."
Miao Yue stood up and bowed: "Yes, Master."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of Miaoyue and the others for you." Changping smiled gently.
Yu Banxia took his men into the palace with confidence.
When you arrive at the palace gate, get off the bus and walk into the palace from the central gate.
It was still court time, and soon a palace servant came to lead them to the side hall to rest.
"I am the eunuch chief serving your majesty. Your majesty has ordered that the princess and others can walk around the palace on their own."
"Mingyue, Ruyi, you two must serve the princess and the others well." Chief Steward Changfu instructed the two palace servants.
Two palace maids came forward and bowed: "Greetings to Princess Yongle, Princess Beirong, and Princess Zhaoning."
“No need to be so polite.” Yu Banxia raised her hand.
Uncle Yan Ping took Yu Hongyu to the outer hall. Before leaving, he said to Yu Banxia, "Xia'er, you can go to the Yimei Garden in the Imperial Garden to see the plum blossoms."
"The red and green plum blossoms are in their best bloom right now."
"Okay, I'll go down and take a look." Yu Banxia nodded with a smile and looked at his uncle again.
Uncle Yan Ping gave her a reassuring look, then followed Chief Steward Changfu to the outer hall.
Yu Banxia sat in the inner hall for a while before asking Mingyue and Ruyi to lead the way to the imperial garden to take a look.
"Princess, please come this way." Mingyue turned around and pointed the way to Yu Banxia.
When I turned around and walked through the archway, I bumped into someone.
"How dare you!" an angry shout came.
Yu Banxia looked at the person who came. The woman was wearing luxurious palace clothes and had a bright and flamboyant appearance.
She looked down upon Yu Banxia and the others, and the person she scolded was just a palace servant beside her.
The other party's identity is not difficult to guess. It must be Lu Qingmei, the most favored imperial concubine in the harem.
"How dare you! You don't even kneel down when you see the Imperial Concubine!" the palace servant glared and shouted angrily.
Yu Banxia's lips curled up slightly, and Ayali snorted coldly: "She is just the Imperial Consort of Southern Jin. I am the future Empress of Northern Rong."
"Why should I kneel to her?"
Lu Qingmei's expression changed slightly. She just thought that the other person was the princess from another family.
I never thought that among those girls, there was actually the Crown Princess of Beirong.
The palace maid who scolded was also stunned, and cold sweat broke out instantly.
Lu Qingmei frowned slightly and looked at Yu Banxia.
Ayali spoke again: "What are you looking at, Imperial Noble Consort? I haven't even knelt down to you, do you still want my master to kneel down to you?"
"Don't forget, my master is a great contributor to Southern Jin!"
Lu Qingmei's face looked completely bad.
She glanced at the personal palace maid beside her, then walked straight up to the palace maid who was making trouble and slapped him in the face.
"I told you not to take advantage of your master and take advantage of his power!"
The little palace maid who made the trouble had a look of grievance in her eyes, but she did not dare to speak.
"Why don't you apologize to the princess and the others?"
Lu Qingmei said lightly, and the little palace maid was so scared that she knelt on the ground.
The whole person was trembling with fear: "It's all because of my lack of vision that I offended you all!"
Lu Qingmei looked at Yu Banxia and smiled: "Princess, this little palace maid offended you. You can beat her or kill her as you wish."
Ayali clenched her fists and said, "The inner court of Southern Jin really taught me a lesson. The Imperial Concubine actually disregarded human life!"
Lu Qingmei's face froze. This damn girl was really difficult to deal with.
"The Imperial Concubine should discipline her own people. We were invited to the palace to see the Emperor. It is really unbecoming of the Imperial Concubine to rush here to show off her power in such a hurry."
Yu Banxia's words made Lu Qingmei's face turn completely dark.
"You're so sharp-tongued!" Lu Qingmei turned away and left, no longer thinking of showing off her power.
Yu Banxia watched her leave in a huff, without any mockery or contempt, just watching quietly.
This was the scene that Lu Qingmei saw when she turned around.
She always felt uneasy, as if something was going to happen, but she didn't know what it was.
But her feeling was always accurate and never wrong.
This newly promoted Princess Yongle, who was from a different family, had a different aura from hers, and the reason she was panicking was definitely related to Princess Yongle.
"Master, are we still going to see the plum blossoms?" Ayali asked Yu Banxia.
Yu Banxia chuckled: "Why not? They are just outsiders and can't affect us."
Having said that, he continued walking towards Yimei Garden.
Ayali looked at Yao Qianyu, and followed Yu Banxia with a smile.
"Wow, what a huge plum blossom garden! It's really beautiful." Ayali pulled Yao Qianyu and ran in first.
In the garden, there were many palace maids holding small jars collecting plum blossom dew.
When he saw someone coming, he stopped and bowed to Yu Banxia and others.
The leading woman was wearing a princess's court dress, while the two beside her were wearing exotic costumes. Unless you were blind, you would not have mistaken the nobles.
"Just focus on your own things and don't worry about us." Yu Banxia instructed the palace servants.
The palace maid bowed again, then lowered her head and went about her own business.
"Hmm...it smells so good, a refreshing scent, I like it."
Ayali sniffed hard, obviously liking the scent of plum blossoms.
"You like the scent of plum blossoms. I will refine a bottle of plum blossom extract for you later."
"I'll make you another serving of plum blossom paste."
"What is it?" Ayali asked Yu Banxia with bright eyes.
Yu Banxia pinched the tip of her nose and said with a smile, "One is for facial application, and it can also be used for bathing."
"It can leave a long-lasting fragrance. One is to apply the balm on the wrists and behind the ears."
The more Ayali listened, the brighter her eyes became: "Master, can't you take me with you?"
"sure."
Ayali was so happy that she pulled Yao Qianyu and danced, saying it was great.
Yao Qianyu quickly stopped her and said, "You are in the Southern Jin Palace. You'd better pay attention to your status as the Crown Princess."
Ayali stuck out her tongue and smiled embarrassedly.
Yao Qianyu couldn't do anything to her.
After walking around the Plum Garden, a palace servant came to report: "Your Majesty summons Princess Yongle, Princess Beirong, and Princess Zhaoning of Beirong to see you."
Yu Banxia led his men and followed the palace maids to meet the Emperor of Southern Jin.
"Yongle pays respect to His Majesty, and wishes His Majesty good health."
"Ayali pays respect to the Emperor of Southern Jin, and wishes the Emperor good health."
"Zhao Ning pays homage to the Emperor of Southern Jin, and wishes him good health."
"Stand up." The gentle voice of the Emperor of Southern Jin sounded.
Yu Banxia stood up and looked up at the Emperor of Southern Jin who was sitting high on the throne. He was about the same age as Yan Hancheng.
He is in good shape and is a handsome middle-aged man.
He was dressed in a black imperial robe and wore a golden crown on his head.
There were several smiling officials standing in the study, including Yan Hancheng.
"Princess Yongle, have you reached the age of marriage?" the Emperor of Southern Jin suddenly asked.
Yu Banxia raised her eyebrows slightly and replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, Yongle reached the age of marriage last June."
