Jin Feng and Princess Jiu also heard about the people coming to the capital. Upon learning that Chen Ji had gone to the West City Gate, they rushed there with a group of guards.
When they arrived at the West City Gate, Chen Ji was just dismounting from his palanquin. The three of them climbed onto the city wall together. Looking out, the official road outside the city was filled with people, stretching as far as the eye could see. When the emperor travels, not only is the Dragon Banner raised, but also a ceremonial canopy is carried. This "canopy" is a large yellow umbrella made of bright yellow silk.
As Chen Ji ascended the city wall, the Dragon Banner and the canopy were naturally brought along. In feudal times, bright yellow was the color of royalty, and even wealthy nobles dared not use it.
