The people from Prince Bao's mansion were captivated by the magnificent Forbidden City once they entered the palace. After all, some people could not even set foot in the Forbidden City in their entire lives, but from this day forward, they could live in the Forbidden City, and who knows, they might become the masters of the Forbidden City in the future.
Therefore, from the moment the carriage entered the palace gate, some people secretly resolved in their hearts that they must live a better life in the future.
Before long, the carriage arrived at the entrance of Chonghua Palace amidst the excitement and joy of the crowd. Mingyu, supported by her maid, slowly stepped down from the carriage. The maids and eunuchs who had been waiting in Chonghua Palace rushed forward to greet her, saying in unison, "Greetings, Crown Princess! May the Crown Princess be blessed."
Mingyu waved her hand, signaling them to rise. The eunuch who had come to read the imperial edict that morning came forward to greet her, saying, "This old servant has been waiting for you masters for a long time." Then, looking at Mingyu and the others, he said, "The side halls in Chonghua Palace are insufficient, so we must trouble you masters to stay in several side halls together."
Although they moved into Chonghua Palace, it was not much larger than the backyard of Prince Bao's mansion. In addition, there were many concubines and princesses in Hongli's mansion, so the side halls in Chonghua Palace were not enough. Therefore, these concubines and princesses had to live in pairs.
Xueying's assigned room was with Ye Keli's, Gao's and Jin's were together, Su's and Chen's were across the hall, and Mingyu naturally occupied her own room.
After listening to her father-in-law's introduction and arrangements, Mingyu turned to the group of people behind her with different expressions and slowly said, "The accommodations have been assigned. Do you have any objections?"
Even if they had grievances, how could they dare to voice them? The most important thing in this palace was to act cautiously, so they suppressed their dissatisfaction and nodded with a smile.
Seeing that they all agreed, Mingyu said, "Then let's start packing our luggage."
At Mingyu's command, the people from each courtyard began moving their belongings to their assigned side halls.
At this moment, after arriving at the East Side Hall, A'Luo looked around the entire East Side Hall and complained to Xueying with dissatisfaction, "Master, this East Side Hall is too much. It can't even compare to our East Courtyard. Now we have to live in this East Side Hall with other princesses. Master, you are a concubine, so why can the other concubines live in their own palace while you have to be so wronged?"
Upon hearing this, Xueying said, "This Chonghua Palace is not as big as the Prince Bao's Mansion, so the living space is definitely cramped. You should not say too much in this palace."
Upon hearing this, A Luo immediately retorted, "But..."
However, before A Luo could go downstairs, Xue Ying glanced at A Luo and shook her head, saying, "Besides, I also really like this Ye Keli family. Living together is good for having company, so there's nothing to feel wronged about."
Meanwhile, Hongli, who was handling state affairs in a side hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, asked, "Have the people from Prince Bao's residence arrived?"
Chen Zi, who was standing close to Hongli, said, "Your Highness, the eunuch who was supposed to deliver the imperial decree has come to inform you that the Crown Princess has just moved into Chonghua Palace with her family."
Hongli nodded, thinking to himself that they must be packing their luggage at this moment.
After a moment's thought, Hongli said to Chen Zi, "Tell the kitchen to prepare. Tonight, I, the Crown Prince, will host a family banquet in the front hall of Chonghua Palace, so that the Crown Princess and the others can come and celebrate this housewarming."
Chen Zi respectfully replied, "Yes, this servant will go immediately."
