Golden Water Bridge.
A white jade arch bridge spans the babbling river below, glistening like a brilliant jade belt in the sunlight, linking the inside and outside of the Imperial Palace.
Beyond the Golden Water Bridge lies the Fengtian Gate.
This is the mandatory path for all civil and military officials to attend the court.
According to the laws of Great Yuan, there are court assemblies at the beginning and middle of each month.
Ever since Emperor Wu Lie was plagued by serious illness, unable to manage court affairs and leaving discipline relaxed in mere formality.
After the Empress announced she would listen to court affairs from behind a curtain, she revitalized court discipline and increased the court assemblies to three times a month, every ten days.
