The group pet prince is a full-scale boss

Chapter 5 Queen Meng

Bai Mengjin rode in a carriage, accompanied by Zhang Neishi and his party, left Baominfang and walked south along Yujie Street, heading straight for the Imperial Palace.

The imperial palace is generally called Da Nei, because it is at the southern end of Lin'an City, it is also called Nan Nei.

The main entrance of Da Nei is called Lizheng Gate, which is located at the southern end, and all officials pass through here when they go to court and enter the palace.

The back door of the inner palace is called the Hening Gate. It is on the north side of the inner palace. People from the inner court, officials and family members, or the emperor's temporary summons all enter the inner palace through this gate.

The Hening Gate is located in Xiaoren Dengping Square. There are three gates side by side. There are guards patrolling here and the guards are strict.

For all the officials who passed Hening Gate and entered the palace, someone would sing loudly about the person's attire, name, official title, etc., and check them one by one.

Bai Mengjin sat in the carriage and stopped outside the Hening Gate, where Zhang's servant came over respectfully to invite her.

"Seventh Lady, the saint is waiting in the Hall of Peace, please come with me, don't let the saint wait for a long time."

Generally, when officials and family members enter the palace, they get off at the Hening Gate and walk in, and walk to the place they want to go.

Bai Mengjin grew up in the countryside, so she didn't feel bad on foot. Accompanied by Bai Zhi Baiwei, she followed Zhang's servant all the way through the He Ning Gate and headed for the He Ning Palace.

From He Ning Gate to He Ning Hall, he walked a long way. On the way, he encountered several groups of imperial guards patrolling and questioning him.

Of course, Zhang Neishi was the most useful person around the queen, and the imperial guards did not dare to make things difficult for him when they saw him.

In this way, Bai Mengjin followed Zhang Neishi and the others, walked a long way, and finally arrived at the Palace of Harmony.

There were a few palace people standing outside the hall, and as soon as they saw Zhang Neishi bringing someone, they knew that the person the saint wanted to meet had arrived.

"Seventh lady of the Bai family, right? The servant is ordered by the sage to meet Seventh lady here. Please wait for the seventh lady, and the servant will go to report."

Bai Mengjin nodded, "Thank you, sister." These palace people are all useful to the queen, and they are in their twenties, so it's not wrong for Bai Mengjin to call them sisters.

"Seventh Lady, you're being polite. I'll come as soon as I go." The palace man nodded with a smile, turned around and went into the hall to report, and came out again after a while. "Please invite Seventh Lady to enter the palace with your servants."

Bai Mengjin nodded, and followed the palace people into the Hall of Peace. As for the two female envoys Bai Zhi and Bai Wei beside her, they could only stay outside the hall and wait.

The palace attendant led Bai Mengjin into the East Pavilion of the palace, and saw a graceful and beautiful woman dressed in fine attire despite her age, sitting at the head, looking towards this side with anticipation and joy.

"My daughter, Bai Mengjin, has met the saint, the saint Jin'an." Bai Mengjin knew that the one sitting at the head was Empress Meng, who was also the sister of Bai Mengjin's mother, so she walked two steps forward to salute.

Empress Meng looked at the woman in front of her with a smile on her face, and nodded, "Excuse me, come, Xiaoqi, come to Auntie, let Auntie take a good look at you."

As soon as Empress Meng opened her mouth, she recognized Bai Mengjin's identity.

Bai Mengjin was slightly surprised, she didn't expect the queen to identify her without careful inspection.

"Don't the sage doubt the identity of the minister's daughter?" Bai Mengjin looked up at Empress Meng, but saw her kind and kind smile on her face, very kind.

"What do you suspect? Do you suspect that you are an imposter?" Empress Meng laughed when she heard that.

"Your father is both intelligent and brave, and your elder brothers are all wise and heroic young heroes, do you really think they are easy to fool?

Over the years, the news of the White Mansion's search for a daughter has spread all over the world, and from time to time, there are qualified women who recognize their relatives. Has anyone been taken to Lin'an City?
It wasn't that many investigations have confirmed that you are real, how could Liu Lang go to Chuzhou to pick you up in person? Empress Meng shook her head and looked at Bai Mengjin with joy in her heart.

"Come, come to Auntie, talk to Auntie, tell Auntie how are you doing these years?" Empress Meng waved to Bai Mengjin again, beckoning her to come forward with a smile.

Bai Mengjin stepped forward a few steps according to her words, and came to Empress Meng, "Xiaoqi has met my aunt."

Empress Meng stretched out her hand, took Bai Mengjin's hand, and asked Bai Mengjin to sit next to her.

"It's really like seeing you, it's like seeing A Wan when she was young." Empress Meng looked at Bai Mengjin's face carefully, but the circles of her eyes were red.

"Our Xiaoqi has grown up, and she is slim and beautiful.

How good would it be if your mother was still there?Seeing Xiaoqi like this, I don't know how happy I will be. "As soon as this remark came out, I couldn't help but shed tears after all.

"It's Xiao Qi who is unlucky. She has been homeless for many years, and finally found her relatives, but it's hard to see Aunt again." Empress Meng wept, and Bai Mengjin felt sad for a while, and then choked up.

"Look at me, seeing Xiao Qi again after more than ten years, it should be a happy thing, but it made you cry with me."

Bai Mengjin burst into tears, but Empress Meng became embarrassed, quickly took a silk handkerchief to wipe away her tears, and raised her hand to help Bai Mengjin wipe away the tears from her cheeks.

Bai Mengjin was not used to being too close to people, so she subconsciously raised her hand to grab Empress Meng's wrist, and then froze.

Huh?What seems wrong?Empress Meng's pulse seemed to be poisoned.Chronic poison will not kill people, but it will make it difficult for women to conceive.

Even if it is possible to conceive and give birth to a child, the child's body will be very weak and it will be extremely difficult to feed.

Empress Meng is the second empress of the current emperor, born in Zaju, her maiden name is Lanzhi.

When she was young, she was beautiful, intelligent and knowledgeable. No one taught her, but she was able to read classics and history without a teacher. She was also good at poetry and painting, and was versatile.

Such versatile beauties were naturally eye-catching, and the crown prince soon noticed him and became obsessed with her.

Even if Meng Lanzhi was six years older than the crown prince, he still couldn't stop the crown prince from loving her.

The crown prince ascended the throne as emperor, married Han's daughter as empress, Meng Lanzhi as Jieyu, and three years later was promoted to imperial concubine.

Two years later, Empress Han passed away, Meng Lanzhi was canonized as empress, and finally stood at the pinnacle of harem power.

The emperor loved Empress Meng very much, and the relationship between husband and wife was very good. The only shortcoming was that they had no children.

In fact, Empress Meng once gave birth to two sons, but unfortunately they died when they were two or three years old.

It's not just that Empress Meng has no children, the concubines in the harem gave birth to eight children for the emperor, but none of them survived.

There was a huge wave in Bai Mengjin's heart. She didn't know whether it was man-made or an accident behind it. If it was man-made, it would be terrible.

Bai Mengjin's surprised expression was only for a moment, but she did not hide it from Empress Meng who had been sizing her up.

"Xiao Qi, what's the matter with you?" Empress Meng asked with some doubts.
