Quick Transmigration: The Carefree Life of a Background Character
Chapter 260 Duke Ding’s Mansion 5
After the banquet, Ziyue stayed in the palace, while the 10,000 personal guards she brought back were arranged to rest and recuperate in the barracks outside Tiandu.
In addition, Ziyue plans to give them a break for a while. They have finally returned from the border, so they can all go home and visit their families, which will put their elderly parents, brothers and sisters who are worried about them at ease.
In the palace, Ziyue accompanied her uncle, the emperor, to play chess, drink tea, eat, and chat every day, allowing the emperor to experience the joyful atmosphere of uncle and nephew being together.
The atmosphere in the imperial court was excellent these days, and the officials were in high spirits.
Because the emperor was in a good mood.
The officials were all shrewd and calculating. When they saw that their superior was in a good mood, they would address things that they usually found difficult to resolve or even difficult to say as Princess Anle. Oh, no, she's now Princess Anle.
Taking advantage of Princess Anle's presence and His Majesty's recent particularly good mood, they brought it up so that they wouldn't have to worry about losing their heads or being scolded by His Majesty.
During her time in the palace, the emperor would summon Ziyue whenever he had time. When the emperor didn't have time, Ziyue would stay with her aunt, the empress.
The Empress sent her a lot of clothes, jewelry, and incredibly precious, rare, and beautiful fabrics. In just a few days, her palace storerooms were almost overflowing.
I experienced firsthand what it was like to be in the palace, where there were two powerful figures—no, three powerful figures, plus the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince also sent plenty of delicious food, drinks, and fun things to Ziyue's palace.
With the favor of the three powerful figures in the palace, Ziyue could practically do whatever she wanted in the palace.
After staying in the palace for about half a month, Ziyue left the palace.
Yes, although living in the palace was quite comfortable and enjoyable, there were still many rules and regulations, and she felt that it was not as free and easy as living alone outside the palace.
Riding her, Sui Feng, all the way to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, Sui Feng was the original owner's warhorse, accompanying the original owner to the battlefield and making many meritorious contributions.
After Ziyue arrived, she fed it some spiritual spring water, and it looked even more majestic and extraordinary, plump and strong, with a handsome figure and smooth fur. Traveling a thousand miles a day was no problem for it.
When Ziyue arrived at the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, the steward Yingbo and a group of maids and servants were already waiting outside the gate.
As soon as Ziyue dismounted, Yingbo led a group of people forward to pay their respects and excitedly said, "The little princess has finally returned."
Then, she slapped herself on the mouth and said, "Look at me, I should be the princess, our Princess Anle has finally returned."
Ziyue quickly helped him up, not blaming him for his inappropriate words. Yingbo was an elder who had watched the original owner grow up since childhood. He had called her "Princess" for so many years, and it was just a slip of the tongue. It was nothing.
However, if outsiders with ulterior motives overheard this, they might use it as a pretext to attack the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.
But Yingbo noticed it immediately and corrected it, so he figured he wouldn't make the same mistake again.
He wanted her, the only heir of the Duke of Dingguo's family, to live a good life more than anyone else, and he would not allow or be willing to bring any risks to her because of him.
"Yingbo, you don't need to be so polite. It's been several years since I last saw you. How are you doing, Yingbo?"
"Yes, yes, everything is fine. We just miss our little princess. We've been waiting for your safe return day and night."
With tears in his eyes, Yingbo looked at the spirited young girl in front of him and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Since the general and the princess passed away, he has been guarding this vast Duke Dingguo Mansion alone, waiting for the young master to return.
Now that the young master has finally returned safely, even if he were to die now, he could at least meet the old general and the princess.
"Princess, please come in quickly. His Majesty knew you were coming back, so he ordered people to renovate our Duke Dingguo's mansion. Everything we use is the best, so you will definitely stay comfortably."
With Yingbo in the mansion, Ziyue naturally feels at ease.
Hearing the affirmation in his young master's words, Yingbo's eyes filled with tears, and he felt that even if he died at this moment, he would have no regrets.

The Duke of Dingguo's mansion truly lives up to its name, occupying a vast area.
The mansion features pavilions and towers, with a picturesque view at every turn, whimsical rockeries, and flowing streams, all exuding elegance and refinement while maintaining a dignified and majestic presence.
To the southeast of the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, there is an artificial lake. It is currently June, and the lotus flowers in the lake are in full bloom.
Each lotus flower, like a fairy in a pink dress, quietly blooms.
Against the backdrop of lush green lotus leaves, the delicate pink petals appear even more vibrant and alluring.
The occasional ripples in the clear water seem to bring a touch of coolness.
Seeing such a beautiful picture makes one's lips curl into a smile.
Ziyue strolled leisurely through the mansion, admiring the scenery as she went, until she returned to the original owner's residence.
The Phoenix Pavilion where the original owner lived had three floors and was the tallest pavilion in the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.
Ziyue lives on the third floor, where the view at night is excellent. Looking up, you can see a sky full of stars, and looking down, you can see the lush and verdant flowers in the garden.
The third floor was considered her boudoir, and usually only her personal maid would come in to help her with her hair and cleaning.
The second floor is used as an area for daily activities, such as playing the piano, painting, or drinking tea.
Although the original owner had practiced martial arts since childhood, she was also skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting because she had a princess mother.
The first floor is where we usually entertain guests and have meals.
The original owner had four maids, Qingliu, Qinghe, Qingfeng, and Qingxue, by her side since childhood. Because they came from a family of military generals, these four maids were all very skilled and each had their own strengths.
Qingliu is mature and steady, well-versed in military strategy, and has the best martial arts skills. She will accompany Ziyue to the battlefield and protect Ziyue closely.
Qinghe is skilled in martial arts, but also in cooking. She can make all kinds of dishes and dishes in all sorts of ways. There is nothing she can't make, only things you can't imagine.
She's the kind of person who's blessed with natural talent; even the simplest dishes like cabbage and tofu become flavorful and uniquely special when she cooks them.
Qingfeng is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and her embroidery is also top-notch. Many of the clothes that the original owner wore since childhood were made by her.
As for Qingxue, she is very skilled in medicine, has a great understanding of poisons, and often makes medicinal dishes.
When the original owner went to the frontier with her father, she was accompanied by Qingliu and Qingxue.
Qingliu, Qinghe, Qingfeng, and Qingxue all grew up together, so their bond is naturally very strong.
When Ziyue first arrived in the capital, she sent Qingliu and Qingxue back to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion first, and they did not enter the palace with her.
