Traveling through the Tang Dynasty: The Concubine Goes to War

After the emperor left, Ayiduo's maid Alina hurried into the room. She looked worried and asked, "Princess, are you really willing to stay in the Tang Dynasty as an imperial concubine? After all, this is not your hometown, and there are many palace rules. You may be subject to many restrictions."

Ayiduo raised her lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, and nodded gently to confirm. Her eyes revealed a kind of firmness and determination, as if she was ready to face everything in the future.

Seeing this, Alina could not help but feel admiration in her heart. She knew that Ayiduo had always been a brave and responsible person, and this decision was also for the peace and tranquility of the two countries. So, she quietly walked to Ayiduo, gently held her hand, and gave her support and encouragement.

"I understand your concerns, Alina. But this is my choice and my responsibility." Ayiduo gently patted Alina's hand, with a firm light in her eyes, and gently comforted her: "We are from the grassland, and this land is indeed a little unfamiliar. But I believe we can adapt to life here. Besides, the emperor is very interested in me, and I also want to do something for my people."

Ayiduo turned around and walked slowly to the window. She pushed it open and the fresh air rushed in. She stood there quietly, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, her heart full of anticipation. In the distance, there were rolling hills and green trees; in the near distance, the courtyard was full of exotic flowers and plants, exuding charming fragrance. All of this made her feel extremely excited.

"Okay, we should get ready." Ayiduo came back to her senses, sighed softly, then turned to Alina and said with a smile: "There are still many things to do tomorrow."

Alina nodded, got up quickly, and quickly went to help pack up. After a while, the two of them were busy and finally got everything ready. The room was filled with a faint fragrance, the bed was covered with soft bedding, and the table was placed with exquisite snacks and fruits.

The night was deep and everything was silent. Ayiduo lay quietly on the soft bed with her eyes closed, trying to rest her tired body. However, her thoughts were surging like the tide and could not calm down. The experiences during the day unfolded in her mind like a picture scroll - the magnificent palace, the high and mighty emperor, and the respectful palace maids... Every detail shocked her and made her full of expectations and worries about her future life.

Ayiduo knows that after tomorrow, she will bid farewell to her once free and unrestrained life on the grassland, enter the Tang Dynasty court, and become a woman with a heavy responsibility. Although the future is uncertain, she is not afraid, because deep in her heart she burns with firm belief and endless courage.

Ayiduo turned over gently, still immersed in complicated thoughts. She could not predict what challenges and difficulties would be waiting for her in the future, but she firmly believed that with her wisdom and perseverance, she would be able to overcome all difficulties and obstacles.

Finally, as time went by, her mood gradually calmed down and she slowly fell into a sweet dream. In her dream, she was dressed in gorgeous and dazzling imperial concubine costumes, gracefully strolling in the palace, exuding a noble aura with every step, attracting the attention of many people. What made her even more ecstatic was that she saw the beautiful scene of the people of the two countries living in harmony and peace, and her heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction.

The next morning, a ray of warm sunlight gently sprinkled on Ayiduo's snow-white face through the window, gently waking her up from her sweet dream. She slowly opened her eyes, stretched lazily, and then got up to wash.

Today is a particularly important day for Ayiduo - she is about to officially enter the palace. Therefore, she must appear in front of everyone in the most perfect state.

At this time, Alina had been waiting impatiently for a long time, just to dress up Aido meticulously.

Ayiduo was wearing an exquisite long gown with exquisite patterns embroidered on it, which sparkled brightly under the sunlight. Her long black hair was combed into a complicated bun and embellished with several valuable gems, making her exude a noble, elegant and otherworldly temperament, as if a fairy who was not worldly had descended to the mortal world.

When everything was ready, Ayiduo, accompanied by Alina, walked with graceful steps towards the Yongshou Palace of the Queen Mother. She knew from the palace maids that the Queen Mother had supreme power in the palace.

Along the way, the palace maids passing by bowed to her respectfully, their eyes showing admiration and awe for her. Ayiduo responded with a gentle smile and politely responded to their greetings.

At this moment, she was full of confidence and hope, because she knew that this was just a new starting point, and she still had a long way to go, but she had made full mental preparations and was always ready to bravely face her own destiny.

Ayiduo arrived outside the Yongshou Palace, and the eunuch at the door announced loudly: "Princess Ayiduo is here!"

Following this loud shout, Ayiduo stepped into the palace with light steps. She was wearing a gorgeous Turkic costume, with a long skirt dragging on the ground, and a delicate golden crown on her head, shining with dazzling light.

The queen mother sat on the throne, dignified and solemn, staring at Ayiduo with a sharp gaze. Ayiduo walked to the center of the hall, bowed slightly, and gave the queen mother a standard Turkish bow.

The Queen Mother's face changed slightly when she saw this, but she soon regained her composure. She nodded slightly, motioned for Ayiduo to stand up, and said, "Raise your head."

Aida obeyed the order, slowly raised her head, and looked directly at the Queen Mother, with determination and confidence in her eyes.

The Queen Mother looked at Ayiduo carefully for a long time, and then a satisfied smile appeared on her face. She nodded slightly and praised: "What a beautiful child. I hope you can bring prosperity and peace to our Tang Dynasty."

Aida thanked the Queen Mother and said that she would do her best to live up to her trust.

The Queen Mother smiled slightly and beckoned the maid beside her to present an exquisite gift. It was a necklace made of pearls and gemstones, emitting a dazzling light.

The Queen Mother put the necklace on Ayiduo's neck and said gently, "This is a gift from me to you. I hope you will have a happy life in the palace."

Aiduo was moved to tears and bowed again to express her gratitude.

Afterwards, the Queen Mother talked with Ayiduo again, asking her some questions about the customs and habits of the Turks and Ayiduo's personal preferences. Ayiduo answered them one by one, showing her high quality and politeness.

After the conversation, Aida bid farewell to the Queen Mother and left Yongshou Palace.

The moment she walked out of the palace gate, Ayiduo was filled with emotion. She knew that the days ahead would not be easy, but she was fully prepared and determined to show her value in this magnificent palace and contribute to the friendly relations between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks.
