On the morning of the second day, Shen Miao followed Xie Jing Xing to the Palace to see Emperor Yong Le. Because it was the first time they met, she still had to wear the Prince Consort grade attire. When Xie Jing Xing came out, Shen Miao could not help but be surprised.
The Great Liang and Ming Qi's attire were definitely different. The Ming Qi's was more exquisite and beautiful while the Great Liang's was more elegant. Xie Jing Xing wore a purple gold robe embroidered with a Qilin, an official's hat, green boots and an agate belt, which made him look very dignified. After taking off his usual frivolous appearance, he seemed somewhat unapproachable.
After Shen Miao ate with him, they rode the carriage to the Imperial Palace. Because of last night's matter, Shen Miao felt somewhat uncomfortable but Xie Jing Xing seemed to be very satisfied with her appearance. In the carriage, he deliberately mentioned it and his words were quite nasty.
Shen Miao thought that this person was really unscrupulous because he was in the Great Liang. But because it was the first time seeing Emperor Yong Le, her heart was somewhat heavy but because of Xie Jing Xing's jesting, she felt much more relaxed.
The residence of Prince Rui was not far from the Imperial Palace, and one did not know if Xie Jing Xing did it deliberately. When the guards at the Palace gates saw Xie Jing Xing, they directly let him pass. Jing Zhe and Gu Yu, as Shen Miao's top maids, followed behind her but did not dare to breathe loudly and walked carefully, afraid that they would make any rude moves and cause trouble to Shen Miao.
The palace maids and eunuchs in the Great Liang Imperial Palace were all sitting with their heads down on their own matters, but when Shen Miao walked past, she could feel some probing gazes falling on her. This was the first time coming to the Great Liang Imperial Palace, and perhaps everyone had some opinions about what kind of wife Xie Jing Xing had married. The common people were tolerant towards her but it was different for those in official positions. In addition to Xie Jing Xing's sensitive identity, if Shen Miao guessed correctly, the title of Rui Wangfei was something that many people were fighting for.
Her every move not only represented that she was Rui Wangfei, but also represented the demeanour of the Ming Qi's Shen family.
Thinking like this, Shen Miao involuntarily straightened her back and became more dignified, and unconsciously brought out the Empress' airs of her previous lifetime.
Xie Jing Xing noticed her actions and smiled playfully before whispering in her ear, "Do not need to be so nervous. You are about to outshine the Empress."
Shen Miao glared at him. What time was this but Xie Jing Xing was still this indecent. There were many eyes and ears in the palace, and some of them were probably Emperor Yongle's men. If Xie Jing Xing's attitude was passed to Emperor Yong Le's ears, would he give her the title of femme fatale? In her previous life, she had been a courteous and obedient empress, but she had never been a demoness who brought disaster to the country.
Just as she was thinking, Xie Jing Xing grabbed her hand. Shen Miao subconsciously wanted to break free and said, "Let someone see …"
"So what if others saw?" Xie Jing Xing was displeased, "Benwang and Wangfei need other people's permission to hold hands?"
Shen Miao still wanted to say something but saw that she had already followed Xie Jing Xu to a side hall and there was a fat eunuch standing outside the door. When he saw both of them, he said, "Your Highness the Prince of First Rank is well. His Majesty and Her Ladyship have been waiting for a long time."
One did not know if it was intentional or unintentional, but he did not greet Shen Miao.
"Deng GongGong, this is this Prince's beloved wife." Xie Jing Xing did not want to let it go and pushed Shen Miao to the front, "Why are you not greeting?"
Shen Miao rolled her eyes at Xie Jing Xing in her heart. This Deng GongGong was obviously under his Master's orders to treat her like this. Who was this Master? Other than Emperor Yong Le, who else could it be? Since it was Emperor Yong Le's view, not only did Xie Jing Xing not go along with it, he even deliberately dug it out. Were they here to quarrel today?
Deng GongGong's smile did not change and immediately spoke according to the person. He looked at Shen Miao and said, "So it is Princess Consort. This servant has eyes but cannot see. Beg Princess Consort for forgiveness."
