The morning glow of early winter was a bleak red, and the almost pale pink hue continued to fade in the sky until it soaked the whole east. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The morning temperature was already low enough to make any exhaled air visible, and the groom rubbed his frozen hands but did not dare to let go of the reins in the slightest. Just because there were now two of the most important three people in his mansion sitting above, and if the horses suddenly went out of control and something happened to them, he would be the first sinner.

Fortunately, his owner is a rare kind and considerate in the capital, and the padded jacket he distributed was specially lengthened with a section of cuffs.

Although it was very hard, the groom felt that it was a particularly honorable thing, so his expression was rarely solemn and serious. And the guards who escorted the owner in the car also seemed to feel that this errand was unusual, and their expressions were either triumphant or pious and serious, which can be regarded as rare and colorful.

Li Jin and his mother took their own carriage together, walking on the way to Huaiyang Palace, the wide carriage was specially customized by Li's father for the three of them to travel together in spring, so although Li's mother is sitting next to Li Jin, there is still a long distance between the two.

Seeing that her mother was still angry after getting into the car, Li Jin guessed that maybe yesterday's anger had not been extinguished. Although Li Jin kept making small moves along the way, hoping to please her mother, her mother was indifferent.

Xiangxue went back and forth to Li Jin when she brought dinner yesterday, and her wife instructed her to get up early today and go to Huaiyang Palace. At that time, Li Jin wondered in her heart why her mother rushed to the venue so early.

You must know that in the past, such banquets are always waiting until three poles on the sun. The host's family was fully prepared, and the guests were ready to leave. If you arrive too early, it will be rude. Li Jin knew that her mother must have planned something, otherwise she would not have been able to make such a reckless move, but at this time, the atmosphere made her unable to open her mouth.

Although Li Jin had the heart to listen, after some efforts at this time, he still didn't see his mother's smiling face, and Li Jin was inevitably frustrated. Looking at that unhappy expression, Li Jin didn't know how to speak.

Although he was a little hesitant, there were too many things that Li Jin couldn't understand, not only some of them could only be known from his mother's mouth, but such a strange state at this time made Li Jin particularly frightened, for fear that something unexpected would happen, making the already complicated situation even more difficult to control.

However, the distance between the Huaiyang Mansion and the Li Mansion was not far away, and the streets passed by in the early morning were even less crowded, so a team of people traveled faster than usual.

Here, Li Jin didn't think of a way to make Mrs. Li change her attitude, and the family outside the car had already come to report that he had arrived in front of the Huaiyang Palace.

In fact, Mrs. Li has been very nervous since she woke up this morning, and if Mrs. Li was by her side at this time, she would definitely find out that Mrs. Li was in an abnormal condition, but it happened that Mr. Li stayed at his friend's house yesterday and did not return all night. Mrs. Li was secretly glad in her heart, otherwise her plan might be extraneous, at this time, everything seemed to be progressing steadily according to Mrs. Li's plan, and after today, she only waited for the exact news to tell the two of them that Mrs. Li was secretly playing her own cards in her heart.

is also because everything is a secret plan, so after getting into the carriage, Mrs. Li has always kept a straight face and turned Li Jin away in order to prevent Li Jin from having the opportunity to notice anything strange from her words and demeanor.

Although Mrs. Li was also secretly distressed, in order for Li Jin to stay in Beijing safely, it was the first priority to let things go smoothly, so Mrs. Li was almost secretly gritting her teeth along the way, forcing herself to be patient.

At this time, she finally arrived at her destination, and Mrs. Li's heart was half settled, although she didn't know if the result would be as she wanted, Mrs. Li felt that the worst was Li Jin marrying to the frontier, so she was fearless to let go and fight.

Mrs. Li calmly got out of the carriage with a calm heart, while Li Jin followed closely with a rare frown. Xiangxue had never seen such a situation since she entered the Li Mansion, so after serving Mrs. Li and Li Jin on the side, she unconsciously became more cautious.

The majestic gold-lettered Lishu plaque on the top of Li Jin's head greeted the dawn of the sky at this time, radiant, perhaps because of the angle, the brilliance from the east reflected all kinds of things and people in front of the palace far beyond their own majesty.

The guards dressed in scarlet squires and the swords at their waists seemed to show more evil aura in such sunlight. The little maid who went to report quickly came back and replied: "Madam, the porter said that all the guests of the palace banquet today can enter through the side door, and the old princess has already explained that you can enter directly after you come." ”

Mrs. Li nodded, with a look that she already knew, and with Chunlan's support, she walked up the stairs and led everyone behind her to enter through the side door in front of the palace.

Because it was not yet the time for the guests to come to the door, the side door was tightly locked, and Mrs. Li and her party had just opened the door when they came to the door.

With a loud sound, the thick door inlaid with ninety-nine eighty-one copper nails opened in Li Jin and the others. Behind the door are two rows of three guards in charge of guarding and several royal family members who are supporting the door.

The majestic style was terrifying, even in the distance, waiting for the small servants in the palace to arrange the place to stand quietly in front of the Li Mansion could not help but shrink, fortunately, Chunlan and Xiangxue often followed the master, so such a scene is not uncommon. At this time, although he was holding Mrs. Li and Li Jin by the door, he did not show his timidity in the end, but he was inevitably shocked by this momentum.

Stepping over the threshold, there was already a butler like a butler waiting for Mrs. Li and the others, and after saluting respectfully, the man said, "Mrs. Li and Miss Li, please." ”

After that, a group of five people walked through various carved beams and paintings, pavilions and pavilions in a snowy color.

Sometimes you can see small maids and maids walking in a hurry and holding various ornaments on the road, and sometimes you can see servants in the distance who are busy setting up the stage and preparing for the banquet.

I don't know if this person took Mrs. Li and the others on a shortcut or a small road, almost all the way through the verandah, and I didn't even see the main hall.

Li Jinzheng wondered, didn't he go to see the protagonist of this banquet, the old princess of Huaiyang?

It's just that before Li Jin could think about it, the oncoming side immediately recaptured Li Jin's scattered thoughts.

The same horseback riding outfit was originally very sassy, but because of the too bright and strong colors and complicated workmanship accessories, the whole person became a little too fancy. Coupled with the mighty team of attendants following behind him, although it is majestic, it inevitably seems a little funny.

Before he could see the face, Li Jin had already guessed the identity of the person on the other side. Li Jin, a woman who can dress up like this and have such momentum, really only knows this one person now - the sister of King Huaiyang, the county lord of Jingyu.

Li Jin frowned unconsciously, walked a few steps faster, and pulled closer to himself and his mother who was in front of him, and reminded in his ear: "Mother, be careful of the person in front of you......"

It's just that before Li Jin could say the reason, Mrs. Li had already stopped it with a look, and Li Jin didn't say anything next.

From that look, Li Jin saw the admonition to himself and a complicated look that could not be recognized.

Although Li Jin knew that the royal family who led the way in front of him might notice something, his words and deeds would be labeled as not in line with the elegance of an aristocratic lady. It's just that at this time, Li Jin felt that no matter what, he had to remind his mother to be careful, but if he hesitated, he missed the opportunity to speak. The people on both sides were not walking slowly, and they could already see the faces of the people on the other side at this time.

The visitor didn't pay attention to the two female guests walking opposite him, but they were ordinary guests who came to visit at today's banquet at home. But because it was too early at this time, it was inevitable that he would not know the general situation in his heart, so he didn't even plan to look at it at all. Just be ready to pass them by.

And things were about to turn out as she expected.

The two female guests stopped five steps away from them, and waited for them to leave, which was the courtesy that Jing Yu deserved as a relative of the emperor, so he didn't care at all, and almost strode away with his eyes above the top.

Unexpectedly, after a contemptuous squint from Li Jin's side, her plan was completely overturned. After walking three or four steps, she seemed to realize who she had just met. His feet were almost spinning in place, and he looked at the few people who had already set off again.

"Wait! Who are you?"
