Five days later, Chongyang Palace.

Yesterday, her eldest aunt had already left, and today she couldn't delay any longer, so she followed Ying Hao into the palace early in the morning.

The man is in the front, and the woman is behind......

She was really reluctant, but she had to go to the queen's palace first. Unexpectedly, it was not only the queen who was waiting for her, but also the crown princess, the second princess, the third princess, and the fifth princess......

"Fourth sister, you're finally back!" Among the people, only the fifth princess was really enthusiastic when she saw her, and with tears in her eyes, she almost pulled her with a handful of snot and tears.

She greeted the five princesses with a smile, and was arranged by the queen to sit near the queen. It is worth mentioning that this seat originally seemed to belong to the second princess. When she first came in, she saw the crown princess and the second princess sitting on both sides of the queen's near the queen. It's just that after she came in, except for the queen, who was still sitting in her seat, everyone pretended to get up enthusiastically to greet her. At this time, although she occupied the position of the second princess at the suggestion of the queen, she was also a little apologetic and subconsciously glanced at the second princess.

The second princess obviously noticed her gaze, but she deliberately pretended not to see it and did not look up at her. just moved down a position and occupied the position of the original third princess. The three princesses were informal, and sat next to the five princesses opposite. The attitude of the second princess ......

After she sat down, she also took the opportunity to look at the crown princess and the third princess, and both of them smiled and nodded at her. Not to mention the fifth princess, who always stared at her with a smile. Only the second princess didn't look at her. It was only at this time that she remembered that before leaving, she and the second princess could be regarded as "Liangzi"?

Speaking of which, this should still be the second princess who is ashamed of her. At the beginning, the blood-stained zither was still stored by Ying Hao in the newly built study, and although the blood stains on it were dry, they were still there. I don't know if Ying Hao asked the second princess to "ask the teacher about the crime" afterwards? No, would they? Otherwise, they would be even more embarrassed to see them today.

"Look at this palace, the fourth concubine is so thin, she has suffered from the four concubines for a year, and now she is in good health?"

"Back to the queen, I'm fine. ”

She was a little surprised, and while answering the queen, she also looked at the faces of the other four. It seems that these people really thought that she had gone to recuperate in seclusion in some secluded place, and now she has recovered from her illness. She actually "ran away from home", such a big matter, Ying Hao actually and the saint really hid it? In this case, she had to pretend to be the first to recover from a serious illness and answer the queen.

"This palace feels that the fourth concubine is also a blessing in disguise, look, now this appearance can be marked. The queen smiled and complimented her.

She smiled, not feeling that the queen was genuinely praising her. Under the queen's smile, there is some kind of unkind look. It is estimated that the queen has actually suspected her whereabouts during the year, and may have sent someone to check it privately, but she didn't find it. This is also to trap her words, trying to catch some loopholes from her response. She adheres to the principle of not saying good, and she has no intention of currying favor with the queen, what the queen says is what it is.

You must know her identity, leaving home for a year without permission, things can be big or small. She remembered that the queen and Ying Hao and her father were two factions. Listening to the pears, the queen had objected to Ying Hao's fact that he was the king of Yanyang, and intended to promote the second prince.

It is said that the biological mother of the second prince died early, and before the queen gave birth to the prince, the second prince was raised in the queen's palace. Although after having a parent, there is a lot of estrangement between the queen and the second prince, but there should still be some mother-son love. People always protect their shortcomings.

"Bengong thinks, most of the clothes of the four concubines in the past can't be worn, right? Mama Rong, you go back and notify the Internal Affairs Office to pick out a few more sets for the four concubines. ”

"Empress Xie. ”

"Grandma...... Grandma ......"

At this time, a milk doll suddenly ran out from behind the house, went straight to the queen's arms, and said coquettishly: "Ru'er also wants new clothes." ”

"Okay, let's make a few for Ru'er. "In the face of this milk doll, the queen was so spoiled that she picked it up and let it do it on her lap.

"Grandma also does it for the mother. ”

"Okay, Mama Rong, I will ask the Internal Affairs Office to make a few things for the fifth concubine when I go back. ”

"Empress Xie. ”

It turned out that this milk baby was the child of the fifth princess. It's a girl, the queen somehow likes it very much, and she gave the name Ru'er, and asked the saint to give her the name of Princess Ruqin. Among the juniors, now she is such a princess, and she can be regarded as the eldest princess.

She glanced at the five princesses, and saw that the five princesses were really happy to make their daughters close to the queen. After all, the queen seems to really like Ru'er.

It's just that, as far as she knows, the biological mother of the fifth prince is still there. To be reasonable, the queen is not Ru'er's grandmother, her grandmother is someone else. The queen did so......

She's just an outsider, so there's no need to talk too much, so let's make less trouble.

At this time, Ru'er looked at her, looked at her for a long time with a pair of big eyes that were bright and innocent, and suddenly smiled at her. She also smiled at Ru'er, who knew that the little girl immediately turned her head, and then asked the queen a little shyly, "Who is this?"

"This is your fourth uncle's concubine, your fourth aunt. "The queen actually used such an ordinary name to teach Ru'er. Well, it's hard to find anything wrong.

"Fourth aunt. Ru'er called people obediently after hearing this, she was only a little more than a year old, but she was very well educated.

"Fourth aunt, you are so good-looking. "The child's words are unscrupulous, and they are also the most sincere.

Hearing Xiao Ru'er praise her so much, she was stunned, and her heart was also very useful, and she couldn't help but talk to Ru'er: "Ru'er, you are also very good-looking." ”

That's exactly what happened. Although Ru'er is small, her eyebrows and eyes have big eyes, double eyelids, a small high nose bridge, a cherry mouth, and her round and moist baby fat apple-like face, and she is also wearing festive red clothes, which is very cute and beautiful.

"Hee-hee. Ru'er immediately smiled, but shrank into the queen's arms. Although the upbringing is good, it seems that he is a little afraid of life.

"The Holy Lord, the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Third Prince...... Arrive. At this time, the eunuch's singing came from far and wide from the gate of the queen's palace.

The crowd immediately got up to meet them. The queen actually pulled Ru'er and asked Ru'er to accompany her.

And when the saint saw Ru'er, he immediately took Ru'er into his arms. Obviously, the saint is also very fond of Ru'er. I just don't know, the reason why the queen likes Ru'er so much is because she first saw that the saint loves Ru'er?

The people returned to their inner chambers and took their seats. This time, because all the princes were also present, they were still seated in the order of dignity and inferiority.

She and Ying Hao sat side by side in the lower left center. On the other side, he faced the second prince and the second princess and the second princess. In front of them sat the three princes and the three princesses, and the five princes and the five princesses sat behind them. In front of the second prince and the second princess sat the crown prince and the crown princess. Although the second princess didn't dare to look at her, she always felt that the second prince had been looking at her suspiciously. It was a bit confusing for her. Where did she provoke the second prince?

She couldn't say it, but she vaguely realized that such a seating division seemed to be a bit distinct. It's clear who is close and who's close.

Because everyone was present, the saint only pretended to be sick and said a few words of concern, and rewarded her with some precious medicinal materials, saying that she should make up for her body. Next, everyone was actually gossiping.

At the end, the queen said: "I am happy today, the sons and concubines will stay in the palace and have dinner before leaving." What about the Holy Providence?"

The saint nodded.

Since everyone has to stay until dinner before leaving, they can't sit in the queen's palace all the time. At this time, the saint whispered something in Ru'er's ear. Ru'er said coquettishly to the queen: "Grandma, Ru'er wants to go to the back garden." ”

The queen immediately smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to the back garden." ”

At this time, it is the time of spring flowers, and it is indeed a good pastime to visit the garden.

The group came to the back garden. It seems that the Holy One has been prepared for a long time. Tea had already been laid out in the pavilion, and a chessboard was arranged on the stone table outside the pavilion, and a zither was set up at the other end.

Tsk, this is the saint who wants to "watch a play" while drinking tea?

The second prince immediately asked Ying Hao: "Fourth brother, play a game of chess with your brother?"

"Good. ”

The second princess took the lead in sitting in front of the zither and said, "I'm here to help the fun." ”

The rest of the people sat in the pavilion with the saint and the queen.

The second princess finished the song, but the second prince and Ying Hao only played half of the game. Then the saint looked at her. She looked at the saint innocently at first, but in the end, she had to get up and take over the second princess.

Fortunately, this time, the palace maid next to her immediately handed her a piece of armor. After she put it on, she naturally played "Farewell".

Time has passed, and once I return to this court, people, still those people, but they still make people feel like they are in a different world, and things are not people. Everyone has changed. Was she forced to come back by Ying Hao? No, she also came back voluntarily. So, since she wants to fight, of course she has started all over again this time, and she must win!

The saint made it clear that he wanted to recreate the banquet in the palace before she left, and give her a chance to officially share the competition with the second princess. Moreover, the Holy Lord seems to be intent on supporting her. At the beginning, her ten fingers were bloody, although it was a little late, she always had to ask the second princess to eat the bitter fruit. This is also good for Ying Hao to give an explanation. Ying Hao didn't want to directly trouble the second prince and the second princess, since he took back the zither stained with her blood, the saint also knew that Ying Hao still remembered this hatred in his heart.

The second princess just played the song she played at that banquet. Come to think of it, the second princess is also ready to be punished.

"Okay!" After she finished playing the song "Farewell", the saint immediately took the lead in cheering.

The second prince and Ying Hao's game of chess has not yet been played.

At the signal of the saint's eyes, she changed the tune and slowed down and played again.

"Zheng...... Zheng ...... Zheng ...... Zheng ...... "In fact, even if the speed is reduced, this song is equally impassioned.

"Second brother, this one, you seem to have hesitated for too long. ”

"Click. The second prince responded and left a son.

Ying Hao's son immediately followed. It seems that the chess game is also coming to an end, and Ying Hao has the upper hand.

At this time, the second prince suddenly led the topic to her, "The fourth sister has been sick for a year, and this piano skill seems to have improved, and the strength of her hands is even worse." ”

She was startled, and always felt that the second prince had noticed something.

"There is nothing to do in the mountains, and you can only play the piano and be funny. Ying Hao smiled at the second prince and said.

"I don't know where the fourth sister is living in seclusion, and what disease is she suffering from?" The second prince's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly increased the speed of his son.

Ying Hao followed the next son unhurriedly, and he was not disturbed by the question of the second prince. It's good that he didn't answer the second prince's question at all, which made the second prince frown, but he couldn't ask again.

Is this okay?she couldn't help but glance up at Ying Hao. Is it possible not to answer?

From her angle, she could only see Ying Hao's back, and the second prince immediately shot a sharp glance at her. She immediately lowered her head again, but she couldn't help but secretly raise her eyes to look at the saint. The latter didn't know if he noticed her peeping, anyway, he just pretended not to look at her, and didn't look at her.

"Second brother, you lost. At this time, Ying Hao took the lead in getting up, walked towards her, and pulled her up from her seat without saying anything. She was only halfway through the song.

After Ying Hao pulled her up, he immediately turned over her palm and looked at it, and said to her in a lessonal tone: "The body is just right, why bother to call yourself so tired." Do your fingers hurt?"

"With the armor, it's fine......"

Ying Hao glared at her, and she automatically shut up.

At this time, the saint asked, "Can the fingers of the fourth concubine be healed?"

"Back to her father, ten fingers are connected to her heart, and now her hands are fine, but they are not suitable for playing for a long time. ”

"Ah, don't leave something wrong with your heart. When you go back, you can ask the imperial doctor to take a good look at the concubine again. With such a good piano skill, you can't be blind in vain. ”

"Father Xie. Ying Hao said and looked at the second princess. The latter immediately shrank his head.

"Second Princess......" The saint dragged out his voice and called the second princess.

The second princess couldn't hide anymore, gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of the saint with a "poof", and pleaded guilty: "The son is at fault, please punish the father." ”

"Do you know what your crime is?" The Holy Lord actually asked the second princess to convict herself.

The second princess bit her lip, turned around and glanced at the second prince, then leaned forward and said, "The son doesn't know that the fourth sister is sick, so he shouldn't instigate the fourth sister to perform a song at that palace banquet." ”

"Oh?

The second princess had to change her words and said: "It was the sons who forced the fourth sister to have to perform a song, which caused the fourth sister to hurt ten fingers, causing an old illness and having to leave the palace to recuperate." It is also called the palace banquet to see blood. Erchen ......"

"Fourth Princess......" The saint suddenly stretched out his voice and called her.

She was stunned, but Ying Hao pushed her. She was a little confused for a while, but she also knelt down in front of the saint and said, "Is there ...... wrong son?"

"Do you know what is wrong with you?" the Holy Lord asked her in a similar way.
