The wild geese fly high, with lofty ambitions.

The day when the newlyweds enter the palace is truly an auspicious day.

In front of the palace gate, the three people selected from the Han army flag stood in the guidance position.

Shen Meizhuang looked at An Lingrong and saw that her jewelry and clothes had obviously changed qualitatively.

She looked at Zhen Huan again and saw that she was just nodding to An Lingrong and they were not as close as in their previous life. Shen Meizhuang felt relieved.

The palace maid came over and led the three of them to the palace gate. Shen Meizhuang lowered her eyes and walked slowly, and she heard Zhen Huan ask the palace maid: "Where is this?"

The palace maid replied: "My lady, this is the side door of Shunzhen Gate."

Zhen Huan asked again with a somewhat unhappy tone: "Side door?"

The palace maid continued, "Concubines can only enter the palace through the side door, and only the Empress can enter through the main gate of the palace."

Zhen Huan was heard calling again: "Sister Mei."

Shen Meizhuang didn't even turn around to look at Zhen Huan, and the palace maid spoke up: "My lady, it's not appropriate to talk at this moment."

Shen Meizhuang knew Zhen Huan's expression without even looking at it.

But Shen Meizhuang didn’t understand where Zhen Huan got the confidence from.

Although she was only the daughter of a fourth-rank official of the Han Army Banner, Zhen Huan wanted to be the emperor's wife and enter through the main gate of the Forbidden City.

Shen Meizhuang followed the palace maid who led the way to Xianfu Palace and lived in the East Side Hall. On the wall of the main hall of the East Side Hall were hung the three words "Chang Xitang".

Shen Meizhuang looked at the three words "Chang Xitang" again and again. The word "Xi" must have violated the taboo of the previous emperor.

However, the previous emperor did not care about it during his reign, and the plaque above was not new.

"Xi" means bright and prosperous, and "Chang Xi" has a better meaning than "Cun Ju".

After Shen Meizhuang entered the room, she summoned the palace maids and eunuchs assigned to her.

He asked Caixing to distribute the rewards to several people and then let them leave.

After changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Shen Meizhuang took Caiyue to the main hall of Xianfu Palace to pay her respects to Concubine Jing.

After entering the main hall, I saw that Concubine Jing's clothes and jewelry were very grand.

Thinking of Concubine Jing’s daily attire in her previous life, she knew that Concubine Jing was waiting for Shen Meizhuang to come and pay her respects.

Shen Meizhuang bowed respectfully: "I am the concubine Shen, paying my respects to the Empress Jing. May the Empress be blessed with good health."

Jingpin called out gently, "Sister, there is no need to be polite. Hurry up and sit down."

Shen Meizhuang replied: "Yes."

After Shen Meizhuang sat down, Jingpin looked at her and said, "Sister, you are really dignified and beautiful."

Shen Meizhuang smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

Afterwards, Jingpin asked the palace maid Hanzhu to bring a box. When the box was opened, a piece of Hui ink was found.

Jingpin said: "I heard that my sister loves reading, so I prepared this Hui ink as a gift for our first meeting."

Shen Meizhuang leaned forward and said, "It's dark and has a rich aroma. It's a good piece of ink. Thank you for the gift."

After taking the box, she put it down and opened the box held by Caiyue. Shen Meizhuang said, "My sister came from Jeju. The donkey-hide gelatin brewed here is very pure. I would like to present it to you."

Jingpin smiled more sincerely and said, "This donkey-hide gelatin is a good thing. I'm sorry that you spent so much money on it."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Shen Meizhuang took her leave and returned to the east side hall.

Jingpin watched Shen Meizhuang leave, and Hanzhu came up to her and said, "Your Majesty, this Concubine Shen is a very polite person."

Jingpin turned her head and looked at the big box of donkey-hide gelatin and said, "A lady from such a family would naturally know etiquette and rules."

On the way back, Shen Meizhuang thought about her past life, when she didn't come to see Concubine Jing, which was really impolite.

In her previous life, Jingpin must have waited for a long time, but Shen Meizhuang never came to pay her a visit.

Although Jingpin was dissatisfied, she did not show it on her face because Shen Meiyu was favored and had a good family background, but she must have had some grudges in her heart.
