The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

Yan Muxi quickly knelt down to salute, and Princess Rong reached out to help her up, took her hand and walked inside, "I've said it this morning, I don't have the patience for these empty formalities. Now that you've entered the palace, we're a family from now on, and there's no need for family members to be polite to each other."

"My daughter-in-law will remember it!" Yan Muxi nodded obediently in response.

Inside the house, a white-haired old man sat upright on the armchair. The old man was about seventy years old, with gray hair and a thin body. He wore an ordinary fine cloth gown. At first glance, he looked no different from an ordinary old man, but upon closer inspection, his eyes were intimidating, not inferior to the domineering general who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

There is only one person who can appear in the princess's room, and that is Prince Rong, who is respected even by the emperor.

Yan Muxi hurriedly bowed, "Daughter-in-law greets Prince Rong."

Although her eyes were lowered, she could clearly feel the captivating gazes falling on her, and she felt a strong sense of unease as if her skin and flesh were being cut open and struck directly into her heart.

Fortunately, this feeling of being seen through did not last too long, as a deep and powerful voice came from the front, "Your mother is right, we are a family and there is no need for formalities, get up!"

When Yan Muxi stood up and looked over again, the old Prince Rong had a kind and gentle look on his face, and it seemed as if he was not the same person who had just released his oppressive power.

"Hurry up and bring the tea and the futon. After decades of waiting, I can finally drink tea from my daughter-in-law!"

Princess Rong laughed and said, "You are old but you are still as impatient as a child. Everyone has been welcomed in. How can Your Majesty not drink tea with his daughter-in-law?"

"Tsk, I don't know since when he started stretching his neck in anticipation, how come now that his wife is here, he is not in a hurry anymore?" Old Prince Rong pouted and teased, looking like a naughty child.

Being teased in front of the younger generation, Princess Rong blushed, "How can the prince be so shameless? He is so old but still has no manners." She did not deny that she was waiting for her daughter-in-law to come before dawn.

Yan Muxi had a decent smile on her face, but cold sweat was pouring down her face. She couldn't tell whether the old Prince Rong was teasing the princess or making a subtle comment on her.

The mother-in-law started waiting before dawn, but her daughter-in-law didn't come until noon. What a sin she has committed!

Princess Rong was the successor of the old Prince Rong. The original wife died less than three years after marrying Prince Rong. After that, Prince Rong had two concubines, but they were unable to give birth to a child, and they all passed away in the past few years. Now, there are only three people in the huge palace, including Yan Muxi, a total of four masters.

Apart from Emperor Yuanjing's lineage, there were no other close relatives in the Rong Palace, so Yan Muxi only needed to offer tea to her parents-in-law and even skipped the complicated process of recognizing her relatives.

The old woman placed the futon in place, Yan Muxi knelt down to take the tea bowl, and took the lead in handing the tea to the old Prince Rong.

Old Prince Rong took the tea with a smile, took a sip, and threw a crystal clear green jade pendant onto the red tray.

Yan Muxi didn't know if the jade pendant had any other uses besides being valuable. She had to accept the gift from her father-in-law regardless of whether it was useful or not.

She generously changed her words and called out, "Father."

"Eh~" Old Prince Rong laughed so hard that his face was full of wrinkles.

Princess Rong gave a pair of jade bracelets as a gift. "It's too strange to always call me daughter-in-law. How about calling me mother Xixi?"

Yan Muxi nodded happily, "Okay, when I was in Jiangnan, my in-laws called my daughter-in-law Xixi."

Princess Rong smiled gently, "Then I will also call you Xixi! Xixi, please don't think your mother is stingy. This pair of jade bracelets was passed down from my grandmother to my mother, and then from my mother to me. Although the bracelets are not valuable, they represent the friendship passed down from generation to generation. I know you have no shortage of expensive jewelry, and you may not like this bracelet of average quality, but please don't throw it away casually."

Yan Muxi hastened to assure, "Mother's bracelet is very good, and my daughter-in-law likes it very much. It will never be lost or damaged casually."

The dining hall is next to the main house. There are only four masters in the entire palace, so there is no need to separate tables for men and women.

When the food was placed on the table, Yan Muxi consciously stood behind her mother-in-law to serve the dishes, but was pulled by Princess Rong to sit beside her.

"It is not customary in the palace to have a new bride stand while serving meals. Xixi, sit down and eat well. You and Tai'er will have to go to the palace to thank the queen later. Eat more so you have the strength to run around."

Princess Rong said as she picked up the chicken leg of the lotus leaf chicken on the table and put it into Yan Muxi's bowl. "Last time I came to the palace, I saw that you liked to eat lotus leaf chicken, so I asked the kitchen to prepare this dish early. You should eat more."

"Thank you, mother. How could I be so grateful to you for caring about me like this?" Yan Muxi was filled with fear and trepidation, not daring to believe that everything that was happening before her eyes was real.

She slept until noon on her first day of marriage. Not only was she not harassed by her in-laws, but she was also treated very politely and gently. Regardless of whether the other party was sincere or not, she felt like she had fallen into a blessed nest.

Gu Yuelan was right. It was good to marry into Prince Rong's Mansion, but one had to ignore the little dog prince sitting opposite.

How nice it would be if I could do without my husband and only have my parents-in-law!

The first hurdle of meeting the parents-in-law was passed, but there was an even bigger hurdle to deal with, which was dealing with the royal relatives in the palace.

When we came out of Zhuxiang Hall, the sun was almost at its zenith. If we set out now, the earliest we could reach the palace would probably be after noon.

Yan Muxi didn't expect that when they returned to the yard, the carriage was already waiting outside the gate.

The carriage was a single-horse carriage, and the carriage and compartment were very small, barely able to accommodate three or four people.

The corridors in the mansion were too narrow for horses to run, so the carriage moved slightly faster than walking. The servants followed behind, and only Yan Muxi and Yu Wantai rode in the carriage.

Yan Muxi sat at the innermost part of the carriage, lifting the curtains to look out, pretending to enjoy the scenery outside. In fact, there was no scenery to be seen at all, as the carriage was passing through the corridor outside the palace, and there were only walls all the way.

Apparently, Yu Wantai had no intention of paying any attention to her. He leaned against the carriage with his eyes closed, playing with a jade ring in his hand.

I have to say that Prince Rong’s Mansion is really big. We rode our horses for a long time before we saw the main gate of the mansion.

Prince Rong doesn’t even have a concubine or maid, and there are three masters in the whole mansion. I wonder what the use of such a big mansion is?

At the gate of the mansion, the two of them changed to a five-wheel-drive carriage that only kings, princes and nobles could ride.

The carriage was decorated in the prince's exclusive dark blue color, inlaid with gold and gems, extremely luxurious. There was a small table and a small couch inside. On the small table was a vase of flowers and snacks, and on the small couch was a thick deerskin rug. A silver-frost charcoal basin was placed in the corner. The interior of the carriage was fragrant and warm like spring.

Along the way, pedestrians would avoid the Rong Prince's carriage from a distance when they saw it, and oncoming carriages would change routes or try to avoid it when they were hundreds of meters away.

Yan Muxi couldn't understand why the old Prince Rong and Princess Rong's food, clothing and daily expenses seemed not luxurious, and could even be called simple, but their external use was extremely extravagant.

Why? Is this just to show the unique nobility of Prince Rong's Mansion?

It was almost noon when they arrived at the palace gate. The two of them changed to a sedan chair, which could be carried directly to the outside of the inner palace. This was also a unique privilege bestowed by Emperor Yuanjing on Prince Rong's Mansion.

When they arrived at the main hall of Changchun Palace, except for Emperor Yuanjing and several adult princes, almost all the masters in the palace were there.
