Chapter 374 – Summons From The Empress (1/2)

After walking the main road for half a day, they finally reached the center of the city arriving at the imperial palace. Lei Yu was once again shocked by the scene in front of his eyes: a magnificent architectural design, dignified soldiers, and an elegant golden dragon flag fluttering on top of the palace walls.

Many eyes were now looking towards Lei Yu’s group.

Lei Yu didn’t bother with their stares. The soldiers that came with him explained the reason for coming and handed over some documents. A military officer then ran into the palace before coming out a while later. The imperial palace main gates then started opening up. Those soldiers who escorted Lei Yu remained outside while he was the only one invited in.

This palace was indeed not small since he couldn’t even see the other end of it. After being advised by this military officer, he stopped looking around and hurried his steps. Since he has come to this place, then he figured he would abide by their rules for now. Lei Yu wasn’t bothered about being advised on what to do because entering this palace could mean a chance to learn about this world.

Lei Yu somehow felt relieved by not seeing any eunuchs around. The only people he saw were usually palace maids and guards running around, not those half-man half-woman looking guys he sees in the movies. And the person leading the whole way was that military officer.

They arrived at a place with a blue wooden sign saying “Cold Morning Palace” before coming to a stop. Outside was a beautiful looking maid who the military officer spoke with: “Make arrangements to settle down the Mister. Tomorrow he will be brought to heal Princess Luminous.”

The palace maid made a bow to acknowledge it before the military officer left. The maid didn’t speak much with Lei Yu but acted passionate with her job as she invited Lei Yu into the Cool Morning Palace.

The furniture and decorations of this place were extraordinarily eye catching and was definitely not something the houses of common people could compare with.

“This servant is called Chun’er. If Mister has any needs, Mister may just let Chun’er know because she will be standing outside the door.” After saying that, the maid called Chun’er bowed before leaving and closing the door behind her.

Lei Yu was very curious about the palace since this was all new to him. But he has seen in many television series that the imperial palace had forbidden grounds, so he couldn’t just walk around and do some sightseeing. He felt that he should just politely stay here for now.

It wasn’t that Lei Yu was afraid of trouble; he just didn’t want to cause too much chaos. What if he caused some karmic sin without realizing it?

Lei Yu started releasing his spiritual perception very casually since he was planning on exploring the imperial place to see how many people there were. It was at this moment that he became shocked!

“So that’s how it is; looks like it was right for me to come to the imperial palace!” Lei Yu coldly said with a smile.

A full day and night and no one came by to check in on him. Lei Yu didn’t call for Chun’er so she just stood outside the door without ever taking a single step into his room. But he honestly didn’t have anything to request of her so Chun’er and just patiently waited for morning to come. Lei Yu really wanted to see what kind of special powers this Empress Guo had.

“Mister! Mister! Have you woken up yet?” Chun’er cried out before pushing the door open. In her hands was a copper wash basin.

“Chun’er, can we go heal Princess Luminous now?” Lei Yu asked while accepting the washcloth from her.

“No one has called for Mister yet so please be patient.” Chun’er lowered her head but Lei Yu could tell this girl was frowning. Lei Yu couldn’t help asking: “Is there something wrong? You looked kind of distraught.”
