- TIME TRAVEL - Killer Girl Gold Medal
037 - Towards the Imperial Palace

It didn't take long for Jiang Xingyu to change her clothes. Now he comes out with a much different appearance than before.

Elegant light blue Hanfu was combined with a simple hairstyle, without excessive decoration and only white jade flops adorned her hair.

He just stood up, letting a gentle breeze blow around his body freely, making his entire figure like a Fairy descending into the mortal world.

The moment his figure came out, everyone was stunned. They were amazed to look at a girl who exceeded the graceful and beautiful word.

Upon awakening from his daydream, the Great Lord said. "Yu'er, let's go."

"Good, Dad." Jiang Xingyu's heartily.

Outside the Residence, two non-luxury-looking carriages had already been prepared earlier. Although not luxurious, but in a glance everyone knows that the carriage belongs to a large family.

Immediately after coming out of the Residence, Father and son boarded their respective carriages. At medium speed the carriage headed towards the Imperial Palace.

Shortly thereafter the imposing majestic Palace filled Jiang Xingyu's gaze.

According to the rules, other than the Imperial Wagon, the Palace did not allow any other Wagon to enter. Therefore when it arrived at the Palace gate, a pair of both of them descended from their respective carriages.

While walking into the Palace, the Great Lord warned. "Yu'er, when facing His Majesty the Emperor, please pay attention to your words. If you offend Your Majesty, no one can save you including Father."

"Dad not to worry. I won't risk my own life." Said Jiang Xingyu with his casual attitude.

The Imperial Palace was a very majestic place. The classy building design combined with gold color makes the whole Palace more magnificent.

The palace is a symbol of majesty and any action must abide by the rules. The status they have is very honorable. In this respect alone, it is not surprising that many people crave it. But for those who understand, the Palace is nothing more than a classy prison. Not as free as outside.

Therefore Jiang Xingyu did not like a place like this.

Arriving outside the Empire's study hall, the Great Lord asked the gatekeeper on duty to report his arrival.

Only after being allowed did he and his daughter go inside.

In the Empire's study room, next to the bookshelves, Emperor Murong Huangli in a dragon robe was focusing on the memorial in front of him.

Despite knowing that Officer Jiang and his daughter were coming, he remained focused on paying homage to all the signboards on the memorial. Only after hearing the sound of respect did he stop.

"Greet me, Officer Jiang, to His Majesty the Emperor,"

"Greetings to me, Jiang Xingyu, to His Imperial Majesty,"

The two walked to the middle of the hall, kneeling down and paying their respects to the great ruler of the Eastern Ling Empire.

Only the Great Lord kneels. While Jiang Xingyu only lowered his head as a sign of respect.

With this, the Great Master whispered. "Yu'er, get on your knees!"

Jiang Xingyu remained motionless.

The emperor placed a commemorative incense stick in his hand and then raised his head.

A face that is no longer young still has its characteristics. Handsome face and sharp black eyes like an eagle at night, cold and aloof. But it doesn't look arrogant or angry.

When the Emperor glanced at the girl who was not kneeling, her two sword-like brows immediately furrowed. Not immediately turning around, he instead let out his majestic aura.

The emperor was not angry. The reason for that was because before Jiang Xingyu was just a stupid girl who did not know manners. So he gave her time to realize.

But after seeing him still not moving, he said. "Miss Jiang, why don't you kneel while facing Zhen?"

The voice made the Great Lord's fear increase even more.

"Your Majesty, the reason I didn't kneel is because I am a descendant of the Nalan Mansion. Since long ago there were no descendants of the Nalan Mansion kneeling to the Imperial Family." Jiang Xingyu replied in a calm voice without arrogance or humility.

Aye! His grandfather and the previous Emperor were life and death acquaintances, fighting and conquering the world together. If not for his Grandfather not being interested in the throne, no one would have known who would eventually become an Emperor.

During the time of the previous Emperor's accession to the throne, he appointed his Grandfather as the Imperial Prince titled Prince Dongqing. His status was very Noble at a level directly below that of the Emperor. Moreover the previous Emperor also mentioned that all of his Grandfather's descendants had equal status to the Imperial Prince and Princess. So when meeting any Imperial Family, there was no need to bow let alone kneel.

It is for this reason that he has two clans namely Jiang and Nalan. As a descendant of the Nalan Family, it has the right to use this grace not to kneel or bow.

The Emperor and the Great Lord suddenly recalled the previous Emperor's decree. The decree announced to the entire Eastern Ling Empire.

The Emperor was a little unhappy as he felt the remark as if it was slapping him in the face.

But he was not angry, instead wholeheartedly admitting his mistake. "Haha! Right enough. Zhen was too busy to forget. Now you guys get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Say both at the same time.

Just as Jiang Xingyu raised his head and the Emperor saw his face clearly, he widened his eyes in shock. At the same time, discomfort flashed in both of his eyes.

Then saying. "Your face is really very similar to your mother."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Honor." Said Jiang Xingyu.

"Oh! Why do you take Zhen's words as a compliment?" Emperor asked.

"Your Majesty said my face is very similar to that of my late mother. While in her lifetime, Mother was the first beauty in the entire Eastern Ling Empire. Since my face is very similar to Mother's, it means that I am also very beautiful. That's why I consider His Majesty's sentence a form of praise." Jiang Xingyu replied with a smile.

The Emperor was stunned for a moment and subconsciously his gaze changed.

"Absolutely. At that time your mother was known as a true beauty. But sadly..." The emperor suddenly sighed. His words did not continue as if he did not want to think about the unhappy past.

The Great Lord was also sad. Although he did not love Nalan Wangzi, that did not mean he did not grieve over his death.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not fitting, the Emperor changed the subject. "By the way, where did the girl who always looked stupid go? why suddenly change a very beautiful and smart girl? what's going on?"

"Answering His Majesty. Before I was so stupid that I could not remember everything clearly. I only remember when I went to visit the Yun Temple. Not knowing what happened, when I opened my eyes, I was suddenly under a cliff and beside me was a white-haired Grandpa. Grandpa said I fell off a cliff. Coincidentally passing by and seeing me fall, Grandpa helped me so that I would not fall to the bottom of the cliff. After that Grandpa used three silver needles to stab me in the head. Grandpa also said my stupidity was caused by poisoning." Jiang Xingyu had already prepared this excuse from the start.
