Chapter 110 The Son of Heaven Summons
After Xu calmed down, the whole Zhou family became quiet. Ji Wan was in a very good mood and began to focus on her sewing machine. She naturally had to report it to Cheng for asking for craftsmen. Cheng was surprised that she, a girl, loved to do these things, and would ask questions in her spare time.
Ji Wan only smiled mysteriously, "When I made it, my second aunt will know."
Her eyes were full of radiance, like stars in the sky, full of confidence.
Cheng bent his eyebrows and eyes, "You still keep it secret from your aunt?"
Ji Wan pulled her arm and acted coquettishly, "Aunt, please promise me, I promise you will like it very much by then."
The fourteen-year-old girl is beautiful and delicate, with a soft voice, and no one can resist her.
"Okay, okay, it's up to you."
Cheng shaved her nose in a doting way, "What other needs do you have? I'll have someone go and buy it for you."
"Thank you, my second aunt."
Ji Wan happily gave her a big hug, and then handed her the order she wrote down in advance.
Cheng probably took a look and found that there were still a lot of things, but he didn't ask much, and handed it over to the most capable Madam Jin around him to do it.
Not long after, Ji Wan prepared all the things she wanted.
In order to get her sewing machine, she put all the teachings in the mansion aside and locked herself in the room every day to direct a group of craftsmen to construct the construction.
She was so concerned that Zhou Yan and Zhou Changru were also curious, and she kept her indifferent after asking her several times.
On that day, the old teacher and Zhou Changqing, the third master who worked in the Ministry of Rites, came back. Zhou hurriedly took his children to pay homage to his grandfather.
After more than ten years of separation, the old teacher did not look at the eldest granddaughter more, but looked at Ji Wan beside her.
"Are you Sister Wan?"
Ji Wan was stunned and subconsciously looked at her mother.
Zhou raised his eyes slightly, touching his grandfather's gray hair and his increasingly old face, and a feeling of sorrow suddenly rose in his heart.
She whispered, "Good uncle, that's right."
The old teacher was slightly stunned by the voice of "Grandfather", and then he looked at the eldest granddaughter, and he felt a little confused when he saw it.
The eldest granddaughter just came to the forefront when he left home, and in his eyes he was just a child. After 16 years of separation, the well-behaved and docile girl had become a mother. Her appearance did not change much, but she obviously had some more wind and frost. I think life has not been smooth these years.
However, there is no time to reminisce about the past, the old master looked at his great-granddaughter again, "Your Majesty wants to see you, go back and change your clothes, and follow me into the palace immediately."
Ji Wan was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Zhou was also stunned and asked tentatively: "I don't know what happened to Your Majesty summoned him?"
Seeing that his daughter and granddaughter were all nervous, Zhou Yan said softly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty has heard of Awan's name and issued imperial edicts twice. Speaking of which, Awan should have entered the palace to thank him. But before you lived in the north, Your Majesty was generous and never asked you to work long distances. I heard that you were back to Beijing recently, and then I summoned him."
I see.
Your Majesty summoned him without hesitation. Zhou immediately took his daughter back to the house to change clothes, and then carefully reminded him, "There are noble people living in the palace. Even the eunuchs should not be offended easily. After entering the palace, you must follow your grandfather carefully, don't walk around, and don't talk nonsense. Whatever Your Majesty asks, you will answer, and never speak frivolously. Do you know?"
Ji Wan nodded, "Mom, don't worry, I've recorded it all."
Zhou looked at her daughter's gentle and quiet face, hugged her daughter again, and then took her hand to the front hall.
Before leaving, Ji Rongyi reluctantly held her sister's hand, "Sister, you have to come back early."
Ji Heng's hand was held by his mother, but his eyes fell on the elder sister. He didn't know where the elder sister was going, but he knew that he couldn't follow him. He said, "Is the elder sister going a long way?"
Children's words are crisp and cute.
Zhou Yan couldn't help but smile and said, "It's not far away, I'll be back soon."
Ji Heng said oh, then said, "Mom Huang made fried fresh milk, I'll keep it for the eldest sister."
Ji Wan felt sober in her heart that she squatted down and touched her brother's head, and said nothing, turning onto the carriage.
After traveling through time for more than a year, this is the first time Ji Wan has entered the palace. She is excited and nervous, and various emotions are mixed together, but she can't tell what it feels like.
The palace is luxurious and luxurious, and you can see a corner in front of the palace gate. After entering the palace, the view is wide, with the steps of the eaves, the layers of palaces, and the lined guards, the eunuchs and palace maids passing by on both sides...
Sure enough, the feeling of being there is different from the feeling of sitting in front of a TV to watch.
The real palace has an indescribable solemnity and majesty, which is so dull that it is a little depressing.
Those neat footsteps, expressionless faces, and vermilion gates... As soon as Ji Wan approached, she felt that this was an ancient power concentration camp, where the most noble people in the Great Yan Kingdom lived, and the king of a country who held the power of life and death in the world.
She remembered her mother's advice, the assassination on that night in Deng County, and the scar that Lu Feili deviated from his heart...
Suddenly he shuddered.
The palace was deep in the palace, with cold wind on all sides, and my mother and younger brothers and sisters were not around, and there were strangers around her... She looked at the old man walking in front of her, wearing a dark blue official uniform, but still walking straight and neatly in her seventies. To her, this old man was also strange.
The only familiar thing is the blood flowing in this body.
In a completely unfamiliar and even dangerous place, Ji Wan was somewhat nervous and subconsciously called out.
"Grandfather."
Old Master Zhou paused and turned around and saw the little girl who had been following behind him with a lot of uneasiness in her eyes. I remembered that she had entered Beijing for the first time and the first time she entered the palace for the first time, and she didn't even have time to get to know her grandfather, and she couldn't help but feel panic.
He slowed down and comforted him warmly: "Don't be afraid."
In just two short words, Ji Wan's uneasiness miraculously soothes Ji Wan's anxiety, "Yeah."
His Majesty reviewed the memorial in the Imperial Study room. After the internal officials reported it, he was summoned and the old master walked in with his great-granddaughter.
He was a veteran of the three dynasties and the army of the emperor. He was privileged and did not need to give a great gift when he saw the emperor. He just bent down slightly to show respect.
Ji Wan was different. She knelt down and bowed to the ground according to what her mother taught in advance, and said, "My lady Ji Wan, please see Your Majesty, long live the Five Emperors."
