Ji Jie guessed correctly, the shrill voice outside was indeed a eunuch sent by the palace.
"Is Mr. Zhaowen here?" The eunuch's masculine voice came into the room: "I am sent by the Empress Dowager of Chu State. Empress Dowager Yan and Prime Minister Li Yuan have announced your entry into the palace!"
Ji Jie cleared her throat and shouted outside: "Father, wait a moment, I will change my clothes and then follow you into the palace!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sima Xueran poked a finger at Ji Jie's belly and said, "What clothes should I change? It seems that I changed them this morning. It's not even an hour ago. Why do I need to change?"
"Sister, of course you have to pay attention to your appearance when entering the palace!" Ji Jie jumped up from the bed, searched all over his body before finding a wrinkle, pointed there and said: "You saw it, you all saw it! I represent the whole country. Zhou, how can you do this if you don’t pay attention to your appearance? Let’s discuss something, you two can help me get dressed... Hey, don’t leave, please help me... I said..."
Sima Xueran and Chen Yao disappeared in a flash, so Ji Jie had no choice but to undress and put on a new set of clothes.
I looked in the mirror for a few times, flipped my hair very confidently, raised the corners of my mouth slightly, and said to myself in the mirror: "Being a beast, you are so confident!"
Then, Ji Jie followed the eunuch into the palace in a carriage.
The majestic Chu Palace has dozens of steps alone, all of which are carved from stone. The patterns on it are very delicate. Looking up, you will see a palace that is several feet high. It is difficult for two people to hug each other in the entire row. The huge stone pillars are carved with lifelike dragons and wind.
Chu State is indeed a veteran vassal state. Ji Jie has seen the royal palaces of five countries: Zhao State, Han State, Wei State, Yan State and Qin State, but none of them can compare with Chu Palace.
However, the luxury of the palace doesn't mean anything. Let's just talk about the Qin Palace. It is less than half the size of the palace, but on the battlefield, the Qin army can defeat the Chu army every time.
"Jun Zhaowen, is this your first time here?" the little eunuch who led the way asked with a smile.
"Yes, this is the first time!" Ji Jie told the truth, there was nothing to hide.
"Haha, that's not surprising!" the little eunuch said proudly: "Every envoy from another country or wealthy businessman who comes here for the first time is overwhelmed by the momentum of the Chu Palace!"
"Yeah?"
"yes!"
Under the leadership of the young eunuch, Ji Jie walked for a full two-quarters of an hour from the main palace to the harem, grandma's. The straight-line distance was more than three miles. The size of the Chu Palace was already larger than that of some medium-sized cities!
The most obvious difference between the harem and the main palace is the ratio of eunuchs to palace maids. The further you go, the more palace maids there are. All of them have slender waists and plump hips, with faint smiles on their faces. Many bold palace maids take the initiative to look at Ji Jie. It's ogling.
Not surprising, once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea. Many palace ladies have never seen a real man after entering, eunuchs not included!
Some people would say, isn't there at least one king who is a man? What's the use of just a man? He can't even "take care of" the concubines, so how can he have time to care about the maids' business?
Yingying Yanyan, Ji Jie felt that he had entered the kingdom of daughters, and of course he had completely ignored those annoying eunuchs.
After three turns and two turns, Ji Jie followed the little eunuch into a rather quiet courtyard. There was a faint fragrance in the air. The little eunuch turned towards the closed door and whispered softly: "To the Queen Mother, Zhaowen Jun Ji Jie said !”
Ji Jie then "woke up" and found out that he was in the ground.
"Please Zhaowen Jun Ji Jie!" A palace maid responded inside.
The little eunuch opened the door respectfully and made a gesture of invitation towards Ji Jie. Ji Jie was not polite to him and walked in with his feet up.
The aroma in the room was stronger, just like what he smelled at first. There were lavender tulles hanging everywhere, and a pretty figure was vaguely sitting on the innermost bed.
Ji Jie was a little puzzled. He heard the voice of the palace maid just now. Why didn't he see any of them after he came in?
Is it possible that there was only one person inside?
No, isn't it said that Yanhou and Li Yuan have an invitation? Even if the one inside is Li Yan, what about Li Yuan? It can't be a full set, right? Dan Ding, it must be Dan Ding!
Damn, what do I have to be afraid of? Maybe she can still eat me!
Ji Jie took a deep breath, put on his signature smile and walked towards the figure. During this process, he lifted the veil countless times, and the figure became clearer.
She was a woman no more than twenty years old, with beautiful eyebrows and beautiful eyes.
Why is it said to be a woman instead of a girl? Because Ji Jie feels the smell of a mature woman from her body, which is definitely not comparable to that of an untouched little girl!
Li Yan, yes, it must be her.
Ji Jie deliberately stood behind the last tulle and saluted the beautiful woman inside: "Ji Jie, Lord Zhaowen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, pays his respects to the Queen of Chu!"
The beauty smiled lightly and asked, "How do you know that I am Queen Yan?"
"intuition!"
"Oh?" Li Yan smiled even brighter. She asked many people this question, and the answers from those people were basically the same. They were just praising the beauty of the Queen Mother of Chu. Of course, some people said She is both beautiful and intelligent.
Only Ji Jie's answer was different. Intuition is something invisible and intangible.
"Why doesn't Mr. Zhaowen come to the front of the veil?" Li Yan said softly. Like Ji Jie, she had been observing him carefully from the moment he came in.
Ji Jie shook his head, pretending to be embarrassed, and said, "I'm afraid that I will fall deeply into Yanhou's beauty and be unable to extricate myself. Wouldn't that be disrespectful?"
"It turns out that Mr. Zhaowen is a gentleman who pays great attention to manners!" Li Yan's words were a bit provocative.
"No, I'm afraid of being rude to the beautiful lady!"
When it comes to picking up girls, Ji Jie is already a veteran in love. He is still confident in dealing with a woman like Li Yan who thinks she is superior. Such women often hide themselves very deeply. In fact, it is just a way of self-protection. It's just a means, as long as you can peel off this layer of protection of hers, she will become a little woman.
"Then I really want to know if Mr. Zhaowen will lose his etiquette, haha!" Li Yanjiao laughed.
Ji Jie knew that he had almost figured it out, so he took a step forward, and the two of them revealed their true colors at the same time.
hiss……
Ji Jie took a breath of air. Li Yan in front of her was wearing a palace suit with a wide open neckline. Her snow-white neck and the upper parts of the two round hemispheres were exposed to the air. Look at her stunningly pretty face. , a pair of big watery eyes with a little sadness in them, and the long eyelashes are slightly rolled up. You know, there is no such thing as mascara these days, it is all natural! Then there is the high bridge of the nose and the small The lips are of moderate thickness, and the slightly opened mouth reveals a few white teeth and a pointed chin.
Further down are the swollen breasts, as if they are about to burst out of the clothes, the slender waist, and the two slender legs together. Although she is sitting on the bed, Ji Jie can easily judge this.
