The carriage entered the palace gate and headed toward the Eternal Joy Palace.
Ye Jingtang had been kicked out of the carriage and naturally lost the right of the princess accompanying him to visit the palace. After arriving at the Eternal Joy Palace, only a palace maid brought him to the Roaring Dragon Pond.
The main purpose of this trip was to introduce him to various rules, such as which paths to take, where he could look, and where not to stay. There were many rules, but in summary, they were pretty straightforward: Don't stay in places where the empress might appear.
