Chen Yun and his group set out from Chang'an and finally arrived at another city - Liangzhou after about ten days.
If they want to go straight from Chang'an to Rongzhou, they have to go through Shuzhou. But because the road to Shuzhou is more difficult, they have to go from Liangzhou to Suizhou, and then take a boat from Suizhou to Rongzhou.
.
Traveling by water is faster than traveling by land.
After arriving in Liangzhou, the group of them checked into the inn. The next day, Yan Lizhou took Chen Yu to visit an elder.
The elder they were going to visit today was Yan Lizhou's aunt, an unmarried princess and the late emperor's sister, who was a few years older than Emperor Yun Zhao.
This aunt never married, but her biological mother was of high birth, and she was also capable. Later, after her father died, she came to her own fiefdom.
The entire state of Liangzhou is not all the fiefdom of this aunt. Basically, the fiefdoms of these princes and princesses are scattered.
For example, not all of Yan Lizhou's fiefdom, Rongzhou, belongs to him. There is also the fiefdom of another prince, Yan Lizhou's great uncle, here.
Princess Yanyang Mansion.
After Chen Xun followed Yan Lizhou into the princess mansion, she couldn't help but look at the place. It was different from the other clan mansions in Chang'an she had visited before, and the atmosphere of life was everywhere.
This aunt should be a very good person, at least she is a person who knows how to live well.
Yan Lizhou had already told Chen Xun about Princess Yanyang's deeds when he was on the road.
When Princess Yanyang was a child, because she was a few years older than Emperor Yun Zhao, it can be said that she was the little princess loved by her father and brother.
Of course, her biological mother's prominent family background is also one of the reasons why she is favored.
Princess Yanyang is also smart. When she was a few years old, her imperial brother, the late emperor, ascended the throne. Even if she was better than ordinary men, the royal family would not let her succeed to the throne.
Of course, Princess Yanyang didn't think about working hard to become the emperor. She was a very chic person.
Probably since she was thirteen or fourteen years old, Princess Yanyang left Chang'an and traveled around the world, from Chang'an to Youzhou, from Youzhou to the easternmost Yizhou, and from Yizhou to the richest Suzhou and Hangzhou.
It can be said that Princess Yanyang traveled almost all over the land of Dayong in the first half of her life. She only returned to her fiefdom of Liangzhou and settled down after she was over fifty.
Princess Yanyang is unmarried and has no children, but as a princess and beautiful, she is not without a man. They just broke up peacefully.
In other words, this princess is very independent and only falls in love but does not get married.
"In other words, Princess Yanyang has dated a lot of people?" When Chen Xun heard Yan Lizhou talk about the love life of this princess, this was what surprised her the most.
Unexpectedly, in the Great Yong Dynasty, there were people like the former Minister of Rites who believed that a woman should commit suicide if her engagement was broken off so as not to harm the family, and there were also people like Princess Yanyang who only fell in love without getting married.
"Aunt Yanyang is a very charming person." Yan Lizhou said.
The people Princess Yanyang dated were not just because of her good looks or her status as a princess, her personal charm was also very important.
After this princess returned to Liangzhou, she was sorting out what she had seen and heard over the past few decades.
Of course she didn't forget to record it when she was on the road. Now she is just sorting it out and preparing to publish it.
Her Royal Highness the Princess has great ambitions. She wants to publish a book and her travel notes can be passed down through the ages.
When she arrived at the living room, Chen Yu saw a heroic and beautiful woman.
She is obviously in her fifties, but the aura of this beauty still makes people unable to take their eyes away at a glance. She is so beautiful.
Her appearance is not that stunning, but her temperament is very attractive.
Her skin is not very white and delicate like the noble ladies in Beijing. Her skin is a very healthy wheat color.
Her hair is not all black. Chen Xun, who has good eyesight, can see that there are strands of white hair on her temples and forehead.
She didn't hide the difference between herself and those noble ladies, but she looked even more beautiful in this way.
The last time Chen Xun went to Prince Rong's Mansion, she didn't have the chance to see the concubine Shu, who was favored in the harem, but she did see the concubine Lin.
But she still felt that the Princess Yanyang she saw now was the most beautiful.
"Juniors have met my aunt." Yan Lizhou and Chen Xun saluted Princess Yanyang together.
Yan Lizhou really admired this Princess Yanyang, because during these years of traveling, she would also fight against bandits when she encountered them, and would wear armor and go into battle when there was war on the border.
Yan Lizhou respected such a womanly elder.
When Princess Yanyang saw Yan Lizhou and Chen Xun, she couldn't help but smile.
"No need to be polite." Princess Yanyang said kindly, and looked at Chen Xun and said, "Is this your princess Ming Yue?"
"She is indeed a fairy-like beauty. She is more advantageous than you."
Yan Lizhou nodded when he heard this and said, "It is true that this junior got an advantage. Xun'er is very good. This junior is honored to be able to become a partner with her."
"You can stay in Liangzhou for a few days this time. You can leave in two days when there is a boat to Suizhou." Princess Yanyang said, "Will your wife Ming Yue talk to this princess?"
"This princess has not seen such a good-looking person for a long time." Princess Yanyang said with a smile.
"My aunt is so complimentary." Chen Xun said modestly.
"My aunt must have met the famous concubine Shu, right?" Chen Xun lost her restraint when she saw that Princess Yanyang was very talkative and cheerful.
She couldn't help but chat with Princess Yanyang about the noble concubine Shu whom she was very curious about. She really wanted to know if her appearance was really so beautiful that she was inhuman.
"Concubine Shu?" Princess Yanyang thought for a moment and said, "Oh? Are you talking about the imperial brother's Shu Zhaorong?"
When Princess Yanyang left Chang'an, Princess Shu was still just Shu Zhaorong, and at that time she was only one of the nine concubines.
Moreover, she is not Zhaoyi, the first of the nine concubines, but Zhaorong, the second.
"Shu Zhaorong is indeed very beautiful, but I cannot appreciate her kind of beauty." Princess Yanyang shook her head and said.
"Of course, I admit that Shu Zhaorong is really beautiful."
Princess Shu's beauty is fragile, the kind of beauty that needs a man's care. Princess Yanyang admits that she is indeed beautiful.
But she doesn't appreciate this kind of beauty. What she likes is the vibrant beauty.
"Speaking of beauties, I remember the most beautiful woman in the world back then. That is the real beauty." Princess Yanyang sighed.
Then Princess Yanyang told Chen Yu about the most beautiful woman in the world that she met when she was traveling. Not only was that beauty beautiful, but she also liked her vitality.
The most beautiful woman is not like the concubine Shu in the palace who needs to be cared for. She is the kind of beauty who is constantly striving for self-improvement and is as beautiful as the blazing sun.
That great beauty is also a famous master in the world. She is famous not only for her appearance, but also for her martial arts.
I heard that the great beauty later became the leader of a sect and got married, but she still did not give up her career.
Princess Yanyang admired this kind of beauty very much. She has a beautiful person and a beautiful heart. She was really full of praise for this most beautiful woman in the world.
