The next day, Linglong entered the palace early in the morning, and yesterday she learned that her palace cold was no longer a big problem, Yan Xu and she were very happy, and they asked for water again when it was almost dawn, so that Linglong was a little late.

She thought she was late, but when she arrived at Yonghua Palace, she realized that she was the first.

Not only did the eldest princess of Jiashan and the county lord of Nanyang not arrive, but even Gu Xiaoxiao had not yet come.

The concubines were still greeting the queen's mother, and a small chamberlain led her to wait in the Xinuan Pavilion first.

"Princess Rui, you sit here for a moment, Princess Rui is from Jiangsu, you taste the mung bean cake from the Jiangnan tribute, the queen said that the imperial dining room in the palace can't make this taste."

Linglong saw that this chamberlain was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he was a smart and clever person, he had never seen it before, and eight out of ten had just been promoted.

Then he smiled and asked, "This father-in-law has never seen it before." ”

The little chamberlain smiled and saluted again, and said, "The slave and maid should die, just waiting for the princess, but forgot to sign up." The slave maid is called Zhang Zizai, who was originally served in the courtyard of Cheng Concubine Niangniang, but now that Cheng Concubine Niangniang is gone, the slave's godfather invited the queen mother and promoted the slave maid to Yonghua Palace. ”

It turned out to be Cheng Concubine's person.

A hint of suspicion flashed in Linglong's eyes, and she asked again, "Which is your godfather?" ”

Zhang Zizai hurriedly said: "The slave's godfather's surname is Zhang Xuelin, and he is also in Yonghua Palace. ”

It turned out to be Zhang Xuelin's godson.

It's just that although this Zhang Xuelin is an old man in Yonghua Palace, he is only a six-grade - and he is not favored.

Linglong smiled and glanced at Xingyu, Xingyu took out a high-grade red plug and gave it to Zhang Zizai, and said, "There will be Gonggong Lao in the future." ”

Zhang Zizai took Feng Hong, hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "In the future, Princess Rui needs slaves and maids to run errands, just command." ”

He's just here, and now he wants to hug his legs when he sees them.

In the past, it was the people around Concubine Cheng, and it was difficult to come, since he could come to Yonghua Palace, he was trying his best to get out of the way, and he could see the sun, who still wanted to stay in the ditch.

Linglong smiled and nodded, but her face showed a faint tiredness.

Zhang Zizi observed his words, and then withdrew with a smile.

Seeing him leave, Linglong said to Xingyu: "Give him a chance and let him get close to you." ”

Although Xingyu didn't know why, as long as it was Linglong's order, she never objected.

Although Linglong came in a hurry, there was never a shortage of food and drink around her, she used snacks in the carriage, but when she saw mung bean cake, she still wanted to eat it.

She took a piece and just took a bite, when she heard an inner attendant singing outside: "Prince and Princess Shou, please come here." ”

Linglong put down the pastry in her hand and got up to greet her.

Gu Xiaoxiao, like her, did not make up too much. The body is a real purple gown full of gold, a moon-white brown skirt, a fallen horse bun, wearing a golden step with eight treasures and beads, and two wine cup-sized peonies embedded in the sideburns.

In terms of appearance, Gu Xiaoxiao is not the most outstanding among the seven fairies of the Gu family, and Gu Jieyu and Gu Yanran from Mrs. Li are the most beautiful, but in terms of temperament, Gu Xiao's dignified and generous is incomparable to several other people.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxiao, Linglong smiled and saluted: "The second imperial sister-in-law is here." ”

Since the Spring Banquet of King Rui's Mansion, every time he saw Linglong, Gu smiled a little in his heart.

Linglong wants this kind of awkwardness.

I know you're doing a lot of things in my house, but I just won't say it.

Gu Xiaoxiao is the eldest daughter in her mother's family, and her stepmother Li is also a little afraid of her; She married into the clan as the prince's concubine and the biological mother of the emperor's eldest grandson. Although Shouwang Yan and her can't say that they are in harmony with each other, they have also respected each other for more than ten years, and she has her pride.

Therefore, the stain that was concealed by Jin Linglong's ill intentions became a thorn in her heart.

Whenever she saw Jin Linglong, Gu Xiaoxiao felt that Jin Linglong was laughing at her in her heart.

She never let anyone contact Shi Pingsu again, and she didn't know what Jin Linglong asked from Shi Pingsu's mouth.

But she couldn't find out, she only knew that Jin Linglong was very important to Shi Pingsu and often took her with her.

I have long heard that Jin Linglong's father spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and the Jin family's Xifu was the aunt's house, so it stands to reason that Jin Linglong should have a grudge against all the concubines, but I heard that Jin Linglong even went back to her parents' house and took Shi Pingsu to serve.

For concubines, this is enough face.

The twelfth has two noble concubines, one is Shi Pingsu, and the other is Chen Feng, the sister-in-law of Jin Linglong's sister-in-law.

I heard that Jin Linglong had a great relationship with her cousin-in-law, but she didn't see her promote Chen Feng, but looked at Shi Pingsu differently.

Whenever he thought of this, Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to give himself a slap.

How confused she is so much!

She can't win over anyone, but she wants to find Jin Linglong's henchmen.

Or is it because of her that Shi Pingsu became Jin Linglong's henchman?

Seeing Jin Linglong smiling like a flower in front of her, Gu Xiao's expression stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal, she smiled and said: "The twelve brothers and sisters came really early, I heard that you accompanied the prince to Xiling during the court meeting, why didn't you stay longer, this capital is so hot that it seems to be on fire." ”

Linglong said with a smile: "We just came back, and Xiling is getting hotter and hotter, since it's all the same heat, it's better to go home and live more comfortably." ”

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, talking about the weather and the like, intimate but estranged.

Linglong was wearing a moon-white plum blossom wrapping gown, but with a twenty-four Hunan skirt full of colorful flowers, Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but think, the Jin family is from Jiangsu, could it be that this is the new Su Xiang'er? Is it becoming fashionable to wear big flower dresses?

At this time, an attendant came to spread the word, and the queen asked them to come over.

When the two went out, they met the concubines who had just finished asking the queen to be safe, and suddenly everyone's eyes fell on Princess Rui's flower skirt, over the years, the fabric sent to the palace has become more and more stable, and the colors have become more and more monotonous.

When it was time to salute the queen mother, Sun Wenxiu came in with a smile: "Queen mother, the eldest princess of Jiashan and the lord of Nanyang have arrived." ”

The queen smiled: "Invite them in." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Linglong, and asked pleasantly: "This skirt is the craftsmanship of the Needlework Bureau?" ”

Linglong smiled and said: "This is what the children and the girls in the house did by themselves, and the craftsmanship is not good, so the queen mother laughed at it." ”

The queen smiled and nodded: "It's exquisite, but you have to be young to look good." ”

Linglong smiled slightly, looking like a good daughter-in-law.

She could feel that the queen mother was in a good mood, and there was no trace of gloom on her face.

When the eldest princess of Jiashan and the lord of Nanyang came in, the atmosphere became more lively.

The county lord of Nanyang is a long-sleeved dancer, and it seems that he is the same as Linglong, he has already guessed the purpose of this trip, and without saying a few words, she asked about Princess Yuning.

She asked the eldest princess of Jiashan: "I haven't seen Mrs. Yongding Hou Shizi for a while, speaking of it, since she got married, every time I enter the palace, even Princess Yuning rarely sees it, in the past, the two of them were like two flowers, and when they saw one, they saw the other." ”

One by one
