After a short nap, Qing'er woke her up for lunch. She touched her stomach and found that she was a little hungry.
The palace maids placed the food on the table one by one, and fetched water for Ye Jinyun to wash her hands. After drying them, Qing'er served her lunch.
The palace is not the same as the Ye Mansion. There are many rules in the palace, and Ye Jinyun cannot drag Qing'er to have meals with her as before.
Ye Jinyun picked up a piece of shredded chicken with silver sprouts and put it into the bowl. She tasted it carefully. The imperial kitchen in the palace was indeed very skilled and it was very much to her taste as a foodie.
After tasting the other dishes on the table, Ye Jinyun was very satisfied. It seemed that entering the palace was not without its benefits. The living and diet were quite good.
Ye Jinyun's belly was full from eating so much. He took the tea handed to him by Qing'er, rinsed his mouth, then stood up and asked someone to take away the remaining food.
Ye Jinyun walked back and forth in the room to digest her food while looking around her residence. She was in a hurry when she came in that morning, so she had not taken a good look at the furnishings in the room.
The interior of the hall has been renovated, the pillars have been painted with new vermilion lacquer, the beams and furniture in the hall are carved with exquisite patterns, and there is a carved wooden screen with floral patterns between the inner hall bedroom and the main hall.
In the corner of her inner hall, antique vases were placed on the eight-treasure sandalwood table, and a row of exquisite rouge and powder and palace concubines' jewelry were placed on the rosewood dressing table. The gems on them reflected dazzling light when the sun shone on them.
At the innermost part of the inner hall stands an antique carved bed with light purple curtains on both sides. When the wind blows through the curtains, the light gauze on the surface sways gently. Next to the window in the hall is a beauty couch. Sitting on the couch and opening the window, you can see the scenery in the courtyard.
After digesting the meal and resting for a while, Ye Jinyun asked Yin Zhu to prepare gifts and went to Liushuang Pavilion where Lin Qingtang was.
Lin Cairen, also known as Lin Qingtang, was instructing the eunuchs in the palace to place her luggage in the room. Little Li Zi, her chamberlain, came to report: "My lady, Noble Lady Ye from the east palace is here to visit you."
Lin Qingtang frowned and said coldly: "Well, please ask her to come in."
"Yeah," Little Lizi took the order and turned to go out. After a while, he brought Ye Jinyun and his group into Liushuang Pavilion.
"Ye Jinyun from Lingyue Pavilion pays his respects to Ms. Lin Cairen. May Ms. Lin Cairen be well and safe," Ye Jinyun said with a bow.
"There is no need to be so polite, sir. Please stand up."
"Thank you, talented lady," Ye Jinyun stood up and signaled Yin Zhu behind him to present the prepared items.
"Jinyun heard that he and Cairen would live in the same palace in the future, so he came to visit Cairen specially, hoping that Cairen would not dislike Jinyun's abruptness."
"Well, it's okay. We will meet each other sooner or later under the same roof," Lin Qingtang responded calmly.
As expected of her as a cold goddess, she always speaks in a way that keeps people at a distance.
Staring at Lin Qingtang's heroic phoenix eyes, Ye Jinyun said: "Jinyun, can I call you Sister Lin?"
Frowning slightly, Lin Qingtang nodded slightly: "Okay."
Hearing this, Ye Jinyun smiled widely. Wow, she had completed the first step towards getting closer to the goddess!
After sitting at Lin Qingtang's place for a while, Ye Jinyun said goodbye to her and took the palace servants to the Qingyin Pavilion on the west side.
The real name of Concubine Yu from Qingyin Pavilion is Yu Wan'er. She is the youngest daughter of the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. She is lively and kind-hearted. When she saw Ye Jinyun coming, she happily stepped forward to greet him.
Ye Jinyun looked at the childish girl in front of him. Her round little face was full of smiles, revealing two cute fangs and sweet dimples at the corners of her mouth. He immediately felt a little fond of this lively girl.
Yu Wan'er was the youngest and most favored daughter in the family. Madam Yu was extremely reluctant to see her daughter chosen to enter the palace. On the day she entered the palace, both mother and daughter burst into tears. Yu Wan'er looked even more depressed after entering the palace, and she did not feel much better until after lunch.
She was a lively person at home, and she was very happy to see Ye Jinyun coming. Although it was the first time she met Ye Jinyun, she still talked to her for a long time.
She was well-educated at home. When she saw the red spots on Ye Jinyun's face, she was just curious without any disgust. She sweetly called her Sister Ye, which made Ye Jinyun like her even better.
It was not until Ye Jinyun felt a little tired and yawned twice that Yu Wan'er reluctantly sent her out.
Ye Jinyun shook her head in amusement and was very satisfied with her two neighbors.
One is the cold goddess in her heart, and the other is the lively and lovely girl next door, which makes her gradually look forward to the future.
