294 Chapter 5
"According to the order of the empress, Jun Muxue, the lady of the Junfu, is invited to the palace to participate in the snow appreciation banquet hosted by the empress."

Early in the morning, just after the breakfast time in the Jun's house, the servants in the palace went straight to the Jun's mansion with the Queen's order. After hearing this sudden order, everyone in the Jun's mansion was stunned for a moment.

Jun Muxue's father, Jun Jintian, was just the Right Chancellor of Dali Temple, a small fifth-rank official. Given the status of him and the Jun family in the imperial capital, Jun Muxue probably wouldn't get the queen's attention.

Why did Yizhi come all of a sudden?
After Jun Jintian and Mrs. Jun looked at each other, they politely stuffed a piece of silver to the servant, "Your father-in-law, you know that the empress has summoned Mu Xue, why?"

The servant looked at the money in his hand, then looked up at Jun Jintian and his wife, frowned and struggled for a while, then put the money back into Jun Jintian's hand: "It's not that the miscellaneous family doesn't want to say, But the empress didn't say anything, and the miscellaneous family is just doing rough work, not qualified to serve in the empress's palace."

Jun Jintian nodded when he heard the words, "Then it's hard for father-in-law to run this trip."

After speaking, the money returned to the servant.

"Is Mu Xue entering the palace now?"

The servant nodded, "The empress is waiting in the garden."

Jun Jintian suppressed the unease in his heart when he heard the words, and said: "Please, father-in-law, have tea in the living room, wait a while, and let the little girl dress up."

Attacking to meet the empress, naturally need to take care of grooming.

The servant is also a good person, hearing the words: "Your Excellency, you are being polite, as it should be."

Jun Jintian asked his servants to entertain him in the living room, and went to Jun Muxue's boudoir with his wife.

"Entering the palace?" Jun Muxue, who was playing the piano, looked at her parents in surprise when she heard the words, "Why did the empress suddenly summon her daughter?"

"I still want to ask you as a father." Seeing her surprised expression, Jun Jintian couldn't help frowning in distress, "It stands to reason that the Jun family is separated from the royal family by hundreds of thousands of miles, so the queen shouldn't notice You, but this Yizhi came suddenly, and I was in a daze for a long time as a father."

Mrs. Jun said worriedly: "Isn't it because you want Mu Xue to enter the palace to serve the emperor?"

The Jun family does not have any prominent power, if the queen wants to accept concubines for the emperor, a woman like Jun Muxue will pose the least threat to the queen if she enters the palace.

Jun Muxue's face changed slightly when she heard the words, and she looked at her parents uneasily, she was silent for a while, and said lightly: "Probably not. Didn't the emperor have rumors before that the new empress was the only one favored by the emperor? At this time, suddenly give the emperor a concubine?"

Mrs. Jun said: "But the queen doesn't know you at all, why did she suddenly remember to let you enter the palace to enjoy the snow?"

Jun Muxue shook her head slowly: "My daughter doesn't know."

"Forget it, don't think about it for now." Jun Jintian sighed, "Go and dress up first, let's talk about it after entering the palace, adapt to the situation."

Jun Muxue nodded.

Half an hour later, Jun Muxue entered the palace with the father-in-law who announced the decree, and followed the guidance of the maids of the Luanfeng Palace, and when she walked all the way to the Royal Garden, she realized that she was not the only one who was called into the palace, but also others. A few ladies from all over the world, as well as Huangfu Yiren who has married the King of War.

Although I have never seen the queen, there is only one woman who is surrounded by everyone in a phoenix robe. Even if she is among the ladies with outstanding looks, she is so dazzling that people can notice it at first sight. She is undoubtedly the honorable Lord of the Central Palace.

Jun Muxue walked forward with dignified steps, followed the leading maid, and reported after listening to the maid salute, "Your Majesty, Miss Jun is here."

The queen hummed lightly, the court lady bowed and stepped back, Jun Muxue stepped forward with her head lowered, bowed her knees, and saluted, "The courtiers see the empress, the empress is a thousand years old."

After a slightly cold "no need to be too polite" sounded, Jun Muxue stood up and thanked En.

Linyue smiled faintly, turned her eyes slightly, and saw a vast expanse of pure white snow in front of her eyes, "The Japanese palace is a bit boring these days, I want to invite some girls into the palace to enjoy the flowers with me, but the winter is so cold that the flowers are all covered with flowers." It’s covered in snow, so where are the flowers to enjoy? Fortunately, the snow scene in the imperial garden is also good, so I ordered everyone to come and walk around with me, won’t you be offended?”

"The Queen's words are serious." Several people around hurriedly bowed their heads and answered respectfully, and chuckled softly, "It's my honor to be summoned by the Queen."

Jun Muxue felt a little relaxed for a while, if she just simply admired the snow, it would be fine.

"Since it's snow appreciation, why don't you compose a poem impromptu?" Linyue smiled and looked at the few people in front of her, "I know that you are all beautiful and talented women, so this request should not be a problem for you. It's just a pity that Bengong is so ignorant and knowledgeable, he only knows how to wield knives and guns all day long, but he is completely incapable of reciting poems, and at this moment, I feel extremely ashamed."

"What did you say?" A girl in red smiled and praised, "Your ladyship does not give way to men, no matter whether it was the envoys from all over the world at the conferment ceremony, or the repelling of the soldiers and horses of the six countries without any bloodshed, they all let you go!" People all over the world are full of admiration. The empress's demeanor is known to everyone now, so how can this little trick in the boudoir compare with the empress's brilliance?"

Jun Muxue glanced at the woman who was speaking, and recognized her as the daughter of the head of the Imperial Academy. Like herself, her father was a small fifth-rank official.Turning her eyes slightly, Jun Muxue realized that among the few girls who were called into the palace today, none of them were noble daughters from serious families, and their father and brother were not high-ranking officials, both of the fifth and sixth ranks.

Except for the once-a-month Great Court Meeting, their father and brother are not even eligible to be in the early court.

Although Jun Muxue and these women knew each other, they didn't usually communicate with each other very often, but she knew very well in her heart that in the eyes of those high-ranking officials and noble women, they were usually looked down upon.

So she couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart.

What is the purpose of the Empress summoning the daughters of these fifth-rank and sixth-rank officials?
Could it be that they want to cultivate their own influence, and these girls with less powerful backgrounds are easier to control?

Thoughts like this flashed across my mind, but I heard a woman slowly chanting: "The twelfth lunar month in the northern country is covered with silver clothes, and the first snow is slightly cold, which makes people feel refreshed.

The pear blossom brings rain to moisten all things, and the auspiciousness from the sky is a sign of the phoenix. "

The auspiciousness from the sky is a sign of Fengcang.

Linyue smiled faintly, "Not bad."

The woman was praised, she smiled and thanked her.

At this time, they walked through the small path in the imperial garden, and the plum blossoms in front of them were in full bloom, with a little bit of pure white snow covering the branches, interweaving with the red plum blossoms to form a cool and proud picture.

Another woman smiled and said: "Mei Xue is fighting for the spring but is not willing to come down, Sao Ren Ge's pen fee review. Mei Xu is three points whiter than Xue Xue, but Xue is inferior to Mei Yi Duan Xiang."

 I'm not good at composing poems, so all the poems here are not original, please don't pick my thorns, read it easily and happily, and wish you all a happy new year by the way, okay.
