The brigade started, and the guards in front of the ceremonial guards beat the gongs with a bang. When the people on the street heard the gongs, they all flashed to both sides, giving way out to the center of the road and marching for the ceremonial guards.

Yang Ze followed the team and walked a long way. When he saw Fu Bingrong and the others following him, Fu Bingrong led the horse and quickly walked to Yang Ze's side and whispered: "Master, where are you going? Why don't you get on the horse? You're too tired to walk!"

Yang Ze took the reins of the horse and said, "Maybe he is going to the eldest princess's mansion. I don't know, I haven't talked to the eldest princess yet!" He turned over and signaled Fu Bingrong and others to follow him.

After walking for a long time, it took almost half an hour. Tan Zhengwen came over and said, "Master, this is not right. Why do I feel like turning left, then turning left, and then turning left. Follow this method of walking. Will you be going back to the gate of the palace again in a while!"

Yang Ze naturally felt it, and he said, "Don't talk too much. Even if you are walking around in the same circle, what can you do? Can you not follow me?"

Tan Zhengwen had no choice but to stop talking and retreated to the back. He and Fu Bingrong looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all inexplicable. I wonder how this princess's ceremonial guard could leave like this.

He turned a corner again and turned left. Yang Ze couldn't bear it anymore. He asked a guard next to him and said, "Dare you ask this guy, where is His Highness the Princess going?"

The guard glanced at him and said, "Of course I'm going back to the princess's mansion. You're from another place. Is it the first time I've seen the princess's ceremonial guard?" He didn't recognize Yang Ze, and didn't know that Yang Ze was the young minister of Dali Temple.

Yang Ze nodded and said, "This is the first time I have seen a princess's carriage. You are right, brother. The princess's mansion is at the gate of the palace?"

The guard smiled and said, "There is no residence at the gate of the palace. Our princess lives in Changshoufang, the one closest to the palace. We walk in this way to let the people see our princess!"

Yang Ze suddenly realized that according to the era he came from, this is to show his sense of existence. The more people know that the eldest princess Fengyi, the more familiar they are with the eldest princess. The more they feel that the eldest princess is more friendly to the people, which is very important to the eldest princess' reputation among the people.

It seems that the aides in the princess's mansion are experts who can come up with this way to show their presence. This is self-promotion without spending a penny, just like advertising. When the people have a deeper impression of the eldest princess than other princes, if the Queen Dugu wants to establish an heir, and when sent to the people to learn about it, the eldest princess will have more points!

Yang Ze thought to himself: "It seems that the eldest princess has already used everything she wants to be the prince. She even needs to use this method. I admire her!"

After turning around, I didn't walk long after this time. I arrived at Changshoufang and the ceremonial guard stopped at the door of the Princess's Mansion. Yang Ze looked at the Princess's Mansion and was shocked. From the outside, the eldest princess's mansion was similar to the palace. Even the shape of the small square in front of the mansion was exactly the same as that of the palace, and the only difference was the size of the area.

Before entering the gate, Yang Ze thought to himself: "After the outer mansion wall, there must be a smaller square, and behind the square is a higher mansion wall."

As expected, there was really a small square behind the gate, and behind the square, there was really a higher wall of mansion, which was completely different from the palace!

Yang Ze turned around and said to Bingrong and the others: "The layout of this eldest princess' home is exactly the same as the palace, it is just a size smaller."

Fu Bingrong and others entered the Princess' Mansion for the first time. They didn't know what the layout of the palace was. After hearing what Yang Ze said, they were very excited. They couldn't enter the palace. After entering the princess' Mansion, it was also a great pleasure in life. When they returned to their hometown in the future, this is the best bragging material. They can completely follow the appearance of the princess' Mansion and brag about what the palace looks like and have entered the palace.

Yang Ze got off his horse and waited honestly near the side door, which was the guard room in the palace. Before he could wait for a while, he saw Captain Ye walking quickly and shouting to him: "Sir Yang, please go to the side palace to a marquis. My princess will ask you later."

Yang Ze repeatedly agreed and followed Captain Ye. Fu Bingrong and the others continued to stay at the door, looking around as if they were not enough, looking at the small palace. Of course, they could only look at the two walls inside and outside, but for them, this was enough.

After entering the inner wall of the mansion, Yang Ze saw the inside of the Princess' Mansion and saw that in front was a tall main hall, almost the same as the Supreme Hall of the Forbidden City, except that the yard was empty and there were almost no people.

Yang Ze asked Captain Ye, "General Ye, Your Highness, the eldest princess, hasn't used lunch yet? Do you have to wait until she has finished lunch before meeting me?"

Captain Ye looked back at him and said, "This young general is not clear, don't ask me. It is best to ask less questions in our mansion. If you ask questions everywhere, it is easy to make people suspicious."

"Thank you, General Ye, for reminding me, this is the first time I have entered the mansion. I don't know the rules, so I hope General Ye will forgive me." Yang Ze's attitude is very good and he is very smart and studious.

Captain Ye had a good impression of him and said with a smile: "Forgive me or not, the young general is not qualified. Lord Yang was joking." After a pause, he felt that he should give Yang Ze a few words, and then said: "My parents, the princess, is the most kind person, but she has a taboo, that is, she doesn't like others to call her Princess, nor does she like to call her Princess Qiansui. So when you meet, it's best to just call her Your Highness, and when she asks you, you're better to make clear the cause and effect of the matter clearly, and don't hide anything, otherwise your Highness will not treat you as... well, treat you as an honest and reliable person. Remember this!"

Yang Ze was very grateful and repeatedly praised him and flattered Captain Ye. If the other party was not an officer, but an eunuch, he had to take out a handful of golden seeds and give them to Captain Ye.

After a while, he arrived at the side hall. Yang Ze entered the hall and waited. There was no one else in the hall. Except for him, there were no palace maids or eunuchs.

Yang Ze waited for a moment and heard footsteps coming from the back of the hall. He immediately lowered his head and stood in the middle of the red carpet of the hall so that people could see him at a glance.

The visitor turned out from behind the huge screen and saw Yang Ze standing in a conspicuous position. He kept walking to Yang Ze. Then he spoke and asked, "Are you Yang Ze?" His tone of speech was very kind, which was the voice in the sedan chair.

Yang Ze immediately bowed and said, "If you go back to your highness, the official is Yang Ze. I have met Your Highness."

"Raise your head and let me see!" said a kind voice.

Yang Ze raised his head and when the eldest princess saw him, he also saw that the eldest princess, who was rumored to be sinister and vicious, was just a kind old lady!

In his fifties, his hair is gray and his face is like a silver basin. Because he is older, he has more wrinkles on his face. His eyes are like crescents. Even if he doesn't smile, he still looks smiling. His lips are a little thick and his nose is a little collapsed. From the perspective of his appearance, no matter what his aesthetic view is, this eldest princess cannot draw into a beauty.

The clothes on my body are not very luxurious. Although they are also silk, they are dark-patterned fabrics. This kind of clothing is soft and comfortable to wear, but not eye-catching. It cannot show its noble status, and there is no jewelry on my body.

In short, if you don’t know that she is the eldest princess, you will have to be misunderstood when walking on the street, thinking that she is just an ordinary middle-aged and rich old lady, very kind and kind old lady who can take out candy for the children at any time.

Yang Ze was surprised. No matter how you look at this eldest princess, she is a kind person and doesn't look vicious at all. Judging from her appearance, she really can't connect with her reputation.

The eldest princess looked at Yang Ze, nodded and smiled, "It turns out that she is a handsome boy. How old is this year? Have you ever married?"

Yang Ze replied: "If you go back to your highness, the 18th year of the lord, you have not gotten married yet!" Strictly speaking, he has not yet reached the 18th year and has not celebrated his birthday this year.

The eldest princess said, "Well, a man is a real man, and he will start a career and then start a family. This is true. But you are the only son in your family. Your parents are older, so it is better to get married early and let them hold their grandson. This is the filial piety. If you have children on their knees, they can live a more comfortable life. Come here and sit here."

She was very kind, really like the old lady from the neighbor's house talking to herself. As soon as she started, she asked about her age and whether she was married. But Yang Ze knew in her heart that the eldest princess must know all these things, but she still asked, maybe she was asking herself not to be nervous!

The eldest princess kept bringing Yang Ze to the big case and let Yang Ze sit on the small pier in the corner of the big case. She sat in the main seat by herself and said to Yang Ze: "I am lonely and my ears are not very good. If you are far away, you will be afraid that you will not be able to hear clearly."

"Your Highness looks like about thirty people, and his health must be good!" Yang Ze hurriedly flattered.

The eldest princess suddenly laughed and said, "Are you in your thirties? You can speak, but you are not that young."

She is just over fifty years old this year and is not the oldest in the royal family. Although she is the eldest princess, she also has her brother. The Dugu Queen has many children and is not young anymore. The Dugu Queen is almost 80 years old. How could the children she gave birth to are young? Even her great-grandsons are older than Yang Ze.

The eldest princess asked again: "Are you hungry? I'm alone asking the kitchen to prepare lunch. Let's wait and have some food and let the kitchen cook first. Let's talk while they are cooking. Are your parents in good health?"

None of the officials Yang Ze met before was as easy to get along with as the eldest princess, and they were all more powerful than the other. Even officials like Yang Pan and Wei Yuancheng who owe him favors were not so polite to him, nor did they ask about his parents' physical condition, but the eldest princess asked.

Yang Ze hurriedly stood up and replied, "Your Highness Cheng is concerned, the lower official's parents are healthy and have no problems at all!"

"As old people, even if they have no health problems, they still need to take care of themselves. It's a coincidence that some bananas were offered in the south recently. I picked two baskets of good ones, but they were still green. I asked someone to send them to your two elders with a quick horse to try them out. This thing is rare in the north." The eldest princess said with a smile. Because she had a pair of smiling eyes, as long as she voiced a little more kind, even if she didn't laugh, it would make people think she was laughing.

Yang Ze hurriedly thanked him again, thinking: "She even knows the riddles I guessed with people in Jinyu Pavilion, but she really knows how to win over people and give gifts when meeting them. When ordinary people encounter this situation, they must bow down under her pomegranate skirt. Well, it's a pomegranate skirt that is too old."

The eldest princess said, "There is no need to thank small things. The northern border is not as cold as Chang'an. It is too cold. After a while, you settle down in Beijing and take them to Chang'an. You can meet them all the time, talk and talk. Older people like to chat and talk about anything or not. You young man are not allowed to laugh at us!"

Yang Ze thought to myself, how dare I laugh at you? I won’t take polite words seriously. Just like an old lady from the neighbor’s house, she doesn’t talk about anything else when she meets, but only talks about family matters. Yang Ze’s originally nervous mood gradually relaxed and began to talk about family affairs with the eldest princess.

After saying something for a while, the eldest princess never asked about the Yuwen family, just like her name is Yang Zelai, she just chatted and chatted about homely things, and she didn't mention a single key sentence.

At this time, the young eunuchs sent lunch, and the eldest princess asked Yang Ze to accompany her to have dinner, and asked him not to be restrained. Young people had to eat more, so that they could be strong.

But no matter what she said, Yang Ze didn't dare to shake off his cheek and ate hard. After eating a few chopsticks, he stopped. The eldest princess ate a lot, and it seemed that she was still very delicious.

It was not until the eldest princess rinsed her mouth after lunch and said, "It seems that you are quite reserved. Don't do this when you see Gu again in the future. Well, you should eat again after you go back, otherwise you will be afraid that you will not be able to eat well in front of Gu!"

After hearing this, Yang Ze quickly stood up and wanted to say goodbye and leave. The eldest princess did not keep him, but when Yang Ze was about to go out, she suddenly said: "I already know the matter of the Yuwen family. I asked you to come this time, but I mainly wanted to see you. Now I see it. Gu is very satisfied. You are a good man. You will work hard to serve the court in the future and will have a future. I guarantee you this."

This is to let himself stand in a row. In this situation, Yang Ze could not say anything else. He could only express his gratitude. He probably would be labeled as the eldest princess party after leaving the princess’s mansion!

The eldest princess said again: "Yuwen Wuluo has always had a good reputation, but I don't know why such a thing happened to his family. It seems that he still lacks reputation. Think about it and don't let him make a fool of himself. In addition, if such a big thing happened to his family, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it for a while. By the way, I think about whether there is a suitable person to recommend it and see who can take over his position. Okay, go and do it with your heart. I am very optimistic about you!"

Yang Ze had no choice but to agree again, but until he left the hall, he didn't understand the meaning of the eldest princess' words.
Chapter completed!
