CHAPTER XLVII

Runrun didn't understand the wit of the adults' words, but felt that her aunt seemed to be a little unhappy.

Lu Qinglan really didn't feel good in her heart. She came here to take care of a few children, the two brothers were older, and Ye Ling was taking care of them personally, and most of her thoughts were spent on Runrun.

But she didn't expect this to happen just when she felt that she had done her best.

Lu Qinglan also began to introspect, before the population of Yefu was simple, she was wary of the county lord of Jing'an. But the county lord of Jing'an is very arrogant, and he doesn't take Runrun in his eyes, and he hasn't said that he deliberately targeted Runrun for so many years.

If it was the previous Ye Mansion back house, Lu Qinglan thought that she was capable of protecting Runrun's thoughtfulness. But now Runrun's identity is different, and there are more people in the backyard of the Lu family, and she is not sure about the future variables.

That night, Lu Qinglan slept with Runrun. Because of something in her heart, she couldn't sleep, and she was thinking about her thoughts while fanning Runrun.

Seeing her like this, Runrun couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, why have you been unhappy today?" ”

Lu Qinglan smiled at her and said, "What are you thinking, go to sleep." ”

A child's intuition has always been sensitive, and Runrun continued: "It seems that after my godmother sent me back, my aunt has not been very happy. Tell me, aunt, I'm grown up now, don't treat me like a child. ”

The small body lay curled up into a small ball, arching in Lu Qinglan's arms. Lu Qinglan sighed softly and said, "Aunt feels that she is useless and has let Runrun be wronged outside." ”

"I didn't feel wronged." Runrun said, "If you want to, no one dares to bully me." ”

No matter how powerful Ruyi is, no matter how powerful the Duchess of Chengguo is, can she still protect it all the time? Besides, Runrun is the girl of the Ye family, can she still rely on others to live her life?

She is too well protected to understand the sinister nature of the world. Originally, according to Lu Qinglan's thoughts, she would find a trustworthy family to marry her in the future, not to seek a prominent status, as long as she lived a harmonious and beautiful life. It doesn't hurt if the portal is smaller, as long as the population is simple and the family is good, she is also very good like this.

But right now, she doesn't mess with others, and others treat her as a target.

Although Runrun is only more than six years old now, his temperament has basically grown. It's been in the current environment, and I'm afraid it's hard to change it.

Lu Qinglan and the old lady couldn't bear to say that they would wipe out her current innocent and enthusiastic temperament.

But the world is sinister, and Runrun's future path is unpredictable for them now......

Lu Qinglan couldn't tell Runrun about these things.

After coaxing her to sleep, Lu Qinglan put on her clothes and got up, sat down at the table and took pen and ink to repair the book. I was full of thoughts, but I didn't know where to start when I picked up the pen. In the end, when the sky turned white, she finished writing a letter, asked the maid to take it, and sent it to the Lu family in Jiangnan when it was dawn.

The next day, after Runrun went to school, Lu Qinglan went to the old lady to talk. Su is also there.

Yesterday, the reminder of the Duchess of Chengguo was still in her ears, and today the old lady carefully told the Su family to be more vigilant against the Bai family in the future.

No one can say whether Bai is in the wrong place for dedication, or if he has other intentions.

Su's heart is also drumming, fortunately, the Bai family has just arrived in the capital, if they stay for a long time and come back to such a show, the second room is afraid that they will think that the big house has an opinion on them, and deliberately let people come out like this.

Although everyone knows it, this matter is more about the eldest princess looking for trouble. But only those in the lower positions have accommodated the high-ranking ones, and if the identity of the eldest princess deliberately wants to make it difficult for Runrun, the Ye family has nothing to do. You can only start from yourself and reduce the possibility of being found as much as possible.

After the old lady finished talking to Su Shi, she asked Su Shi to go back to work first.

After she left, the old lady looked at Lu Qinglan, who had not said a word in the middle of the morning, "Lu girl, do you have something to say?" ”

The old lady is an understanding person, and Lu Qinglan did not hide it, so she expressed her worries.

After hearing this, the old lady thought for a moment and said, "According to me, you just think too much." Isn't it just a pair of socks, our runrun is now a different identity, we should pay more attention to every word and deed, this time we are not thoughtful, just pay more attention in the future. After so many years, haven't we always been good at Runrun? ”

Obviously, I think Lu Qinglan is thinking too much.

Lu Qinglan didn't continue. Although this matter is not big, she is faintly uneasy in her heart.

The weather was getting hot day by day, and it was soon the hottest month of July.

Guozijian's women's school has also been suspended, they are all delicate girls from various families, and Empress Yuan is sympathetic to them, so she gives them a month's vacation.

The emperor is preparing to go to Lishan Palace to escape the summer.

There happened to be several concubines in the palace who were in labor, and Queen Yuan did not go with her.

The emperor didn't bring any other concubines, so he brought a few princes and princesses over. They were also allowed to bring some of their good friends with them.

Of course, Ruyi also wanted to follow, and of course she also thought of Runrun.

Runrun has grown so big that he has never been out of the capital. It is the age of playfulness, and she is of course very willing to suddenly have such an opportunity to travel.

Lu Qinglan was reluctant in her heart, Runrun was young, and she didn't practice convenience, so let her go out alone, how could she rest assured.

The old lady was also a little worried, but she also understood that this opportunity to travel with the Huang family was very decent. Who in the capital is not proud of this? There is no refusal. It's the county lord of Xinyang, and he is still thinking of a way to let Zhen Zhen go with him.

Ruyi even begged her mother to help her go to Ye Mansion as a lobbyist, and repeatedly promised that she would take good care of Runrun.

Runrun didn't say anything, just blinked a pair of big eyes full of anticipation, no matter who looked at it, he couldn't bear to refuse her and let her down.

So in July, the emperor set off, the crown prince, the second prince, the eldest princess Nan Xuan, the second princess Nan Rong accompanied the frame, and there were also 120 young sons and little girls from the family.

Originally, the emperor thought that Empress Yuan was not there, and he was afraid that he would not take good care of a few children, so he asked them to choose their own playmates to take with them, anyway, it was not in the palace, so it would be okay for them to relax and play for a few days. I didn't expect that one with one actually brought a dozen or twenty. But he had no reason to regret it, so he could only go with a group of half-grown children.

Lishan Palace is four or five days away from the capital, and it is not far away. The atmosphere of the palace is divided into four parts: the palace area, the lake area, the plain area, and the mountain area. Compared with the majestic Imperial Palace of the capital, this place is characterized by a simple and elegant mountain village.

Most of these children were out of the capital for the first time, and although they had been bumpy on the carriage for a few days, they were attracted by the novel scenery and did not find the journey boring. In addition, a few people ride in the same carriage, talk and laugh on the road, look at the scenery, play some games such as flower cards, and arrive at the destination in the blink of an eye.

Runrun stayed with Ruyi all the way, and sometimes the second prince would go to their carriage with them, bringing some game to share with them, and Runrun became more and more familiar with him.

In the past few days, the prince has not shown his face, and when he asked, the second prince said that his royal brother was taken by his father's side, eating and living together, and he would explain some things to him on weekdays, and he was indeed lacking in skills. Compared to the other people's leisurely fun, the prince seemed to be very busy along the way.

When they arrived at the palace, Aunt Huizhen, who handled the trivial affairs on behalf of Empress Yuan, assigned their respective residences.

Although the layout of the palace is large, the palace area is still far inferior to the imperial palace.

And the layout here is not as magnificent as the palace, and the specifications are strict. Each dwelling is more like an ordinary house.

These little girls were all arranged in Fengheyuan, each with their own yard, but not far away.

Runrun and Ruyi are divided into a courtyard.

As soon as Runrun returned to the room and settled down, Ruyi stepped on the threshold and came in and pulled her out to play.

Runrun remembered her aunt's explanation before leaving, telling her not to play greedily outside, so she hesitated. It's just been here, and no one has come to arrange it yet, so I'm afraid it's a little bad for them to act on their own.

Ruyi said: "What are you worried about so much?" Anyway, it's not in the palace, everyone is casual. I saw that there were flowers and trees in the back of our yard, so let's not go far, so let's go pick some flowers and catch two more to play. ”

Lishan Palace is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is much cooler than the capital. When I was in the capital, Ruyi was a little hot and a little embarrassed, and I didn't have the spirit to play many times. It's cool at this time, and there are no adults around, so naturally I can't wait.

Runrun didn't want to ruin her interest, and told her that he wouldn't go far, only at the back of the yard, so he followed her.

Catching this kind of thing is the most common fun for ordinary children's children in the summer. But little girls like them are absolutely not allowed to climb trees at home, even if they bask in the sun for a while, there are maids and mothers who are anxious.

The two of them took a maid and went around to the back of the courtyard to take a look.

There were indeed a few trees that were very luxuriant, lush, with cicadas chirping and a few small flowers scattered among the leaves. It's not particularly special, but it's a rare breed in the capital.

The flower tree is really not tall, Ruyi asked the maid to make a chair, let the maid hold it, and she stepped on the chair to climb up.

Runrun was afraid that she would fall, so he also went to help hold the chair.

Ruyi flipped the sleeves to her elbows, and the hem of her skirt rolled up.

She had been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she was athletic, and she climbed up without exerting any effort and stood on the thick forked trunk. She had a bag around her waist and reached out and grabbed a few of them that were climbing on the trunk of a tree and put them in.

Runrun was stunned below, envious, and afraid that she would fall.

Fortunately, Ruyi didn't stand on it for long, and climbed down with his hands and feet.

"Here's for you." With a thin sweat on her forehead, a smile on the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, she stretched out her hand and stretched out her hand in front of Runrun, with a small handful of lilac flowers in her hand.

Runrun happily took it, carefully put it into the small purse she carried, and then took her own small handkerchief to wipe her hands.

Ruyi let her rub it, "You should also go up and take a look, the view above is broadened." ”

Runrun shook his head and said, "I'm a little scared. ”

"What are you afraid of, even if you fall, I can catch you below."

"I'm so heavy, you can't catch it."

Ruyi leaned over and hugged her waist and checked it, not to mention, the weight was really unclear. It's okay to let her hold it, but if she falls from a high place and asks her to pick it up, she really can't catch it.

The two were talking when they suddenly heard someone else's voice.

After following the sound and taking a look, it was the eldest princess Nan Xuan and the second princess Nan Rong who came over with a group of little girls.

This is the emperor's palace, and the two princesses are naturally the hosts, and the others are guests. So after settling down, Nan Xuan asked Nan Rong to go out with him and take the nobles out for a walk.

But in fact, Nan Xuan himself is also the first time to come to the palace, and he is very unfamiliar with this place. But in order to show the identity of his master's family, Nan Xuan specially arranged such a play.

Seeing Nan Xuan, Ruyi instinctively frowned.

In the same way, when the other party saw her, he didn't see much joy. However, due to the scene, Nan Xuan still came up to say hello very decently.

Runrun was not familiar with them, but he still saw two familiar figures among those people.

Zhu Yun, a girl from the Wang family in Nanping County, and another is Zhen Zhen.

The people around the two princesses were all chosen by themselves.

Nanrong is a child in the end, and he brings someone who is about the same age as himself and plays well.

Nan Xuan thought more. She specially invited Zhu Yun and Zhen Zhen.

The relationship between these two people and her usual relationship is only superficial, but she has always wanted to be good friends with them.

The little ladies in the capital are all proud of this trip. She extended an olive branch to them, which was already a very great show of kindness.

Zhu Yun and Zhen Zhen are not the kind of people who are very unimmoral, so they naturally accepted Nan Xuan's invitation.

When he was on the way, Runrun thought about talking to Zhen Zhen.

However, Zhen Zhen spent most of her time with Nan Xuan, she didn't like Nan Xuan very much, and Ruyi didn't want to go, so the sisters didn't talk much on the way.

Seeing Runrun, the two of them also smiled at her, which was regarded as a greeting.

"Sister Ruyi and Sister Ye are also here to visit the garden? Why don't you join us? ”

For this kind of greeting invitation, Ruyi said directly: "We can't play with you, it's better to go shopping by yourself." ”

She refused too bluntly, so many people present were all clever, who couldn't understand that this was wishful thinking and not buying the account of the eldest princess. If it was private, Nan Xuan would not care about Empress Yuan's face. But now there are so many little nobles around her, Nan Xuan wants to establish prestige among them, so naturally she can't be compared to her like this, so she continued: "Sister Ruyi is the first time to come to the palace, the palace is a big place, and you are new to it, I am afraid that you will be a guest for the first time and get lost." If you don't want to join us, I'll send a few aunts to show you the way, and it's the same. ”

Although Nan Xuan's words were still very polite, the meaning of his words was already obvious.

This is her home, and you are here as a guest, so you should be clear about your identity. Stop being so brazen.

Ruyi didn't buy her account, "Aren't you also here for the first time, I heard that the first few summer vacations, the emperor only brought the crown prince and the second prince." The people you serve should use it yourself, don't get yourself lost. ”

This is indeed a faceless statement.

Nan Xuan didn't think about how to go back for a while, she has always been well-behaved and generous in front of Queen Yuan, and she has never seen her younger brothers and sisters in general, Ruyi's words are enough for her to send her well, but I am afraid that the image of her hard work in front of her will not be able to be saved......

The second princess, Nanrong and Runrun, are about the same age, with a round face and some baby fat, but their temper is not very good.

Ruyi's words, she felt that she was also offended, and immediately shouted: "Presumptuous! Is this your attitude when talking to the princess? ”

The voice is still very immature, but the tone is old.

Ruyi didn't have much to do with this Nanrong, she only knew that her mother Concubine Zhuang was the daughter of the Zhennan Wang family, and I heard that she was like a fairy, but her temper was very arrogant, and she often caused trouble in the palace, and even her aunt had a headache.

The second princess did not inherit the beauty of her mother, but her temperament was learned seven or eight points.

If you are replaced by someone else, you are scolded by the princess like this, even if the other party is just a young princess, I am afraid that she has already been in a hurry to apologize and admit her mistake.

But what she scolded was not others, but Ruyi, who walked around the palace all year round.

"The attitude of talking to the princess?" Ruyi seemed to be smiling, "The eldest princess keeps calling my sister, and I naturally have my sister's attitude towards my sister." Since the second princess doesn't like my attitude, I won't dare to treat the two princesses as sisters in the future. ”

Nan Rong snorted, "What is your identity?" Why do you still want to be sisters with us? ”

"Yes, yes, how can I be as tall as two princesses." Ruyi said, and bent down to them decently, and made a gesture towards them, "I've seen two princesses!" ”

This attitude really angered Nan Rong, and she was about to step forward to have a seizure, but was stopped by Nan Xuan.

Nan Xuan smiled and said: "They are all their own sisters, the second sister is young, Sister Ruyi should not be like her." ”

Ruyi immediately waved his hand and said: "Where do I dare, the two princesses are high, and naturally whatever they say is what they say." After that, he pulled Runrun and said, "Let's not bother the two princesses here, let's go back." ”

Runrun nodded obediently and followed Ruyi.

Nan Rong was angry, pointed to Ruyi's back and asked Nan Xuan, "Why did the imperial sister let her go like this?" When she talks like that, does she look down on us for the first time in the palace? ”

If Nan Rong was his own sister, Nan Xuan really wanted to give her two blows.

Yes, Ruyi is indeed not a royal person. But she is the niece of Empress Yuan, and her father asked her to call her uncle in private. It's for the sake of the two of them, Nan Rong shouldn't say something like that! said that people are not worthy of being sisters with the princess, isn't that in the face of Queen Yuan? When I turned around and let my father know, maybe I had to say that they had no one in their eyes.

Originally, they took advantage of the reason, but now teach her to say it, but it seems that they bullied Ruyi with the identity of the princess!

What an idiot!

"Alright, forget it." Nan Xuan briefly comforted Nan Rong with a few words, and then said to the others, "The scenery ahead is also good, let's go forward." ”
