Gu Yanran is not a wife, she followed the Duchess of Zhenguo into the palace. And Meng Shi was afraid of being pointed at, so he didn't want to bring her, but Gu Yanran insisted on coming, and Meng couldn't resist her, so he had to bring her with him.

Not to mention such a grand event as entering the palace to pay New Year's greetings, it is a small banquet in various mansions, and Gu Yanran has not participated in it for a long time. She is a showy little girl, and she is the best in the leap show in the capital, and now this situation is unbearable for her, so she has to come out to breathe, even if she is ridiculed, she has to stand in front of Jin Linglong, let everyone know that Jin Linglong is just picking up a family affair that she doesn't want, a ridiculous family affair.

Isn't it ridiculous enough to be a fake phoenix with the Twelve Princes?

When she saw Jin Linglong, Gu Yanran was slightly stunned.

The same as the princesses of the Gu family, the true red silk straight-collar cardigan with large sleeves, the dark blue woven golden clouds and phoenix patterns, decorated with gold pendants, and wearing a crown of nine feathers and four phoenixes.

is still as smooth and crystal skin as the first snow, with a round goose egg face, clear apricot eyes, and petite and full cherry lips, but for some reason, Gu Yanran felt that the little girl in front of her was unfamiliar.

In the past, Jin Linglong, although quiet and calm, was green, like a delicate and delicate flower. And now, instead of the charm faintly revealed by the eyebrows under her eyes, she is light and delicate in her gestures, and that calm and calm bearing makes her add a little luxury.

Shouldn't she be like a resentful woman?

Why is she like a new lotus after the rain, fresh and bright?

What's wrong?

What happened?

Gu Yanran's delicate face could not hide her surprise, she didn't have time to think about it. I heard Jin Linglong say to her with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Gu Qi, I haven't seen her for a long time." ”

Gu Yanran in front of her didn't look very good, the previous Gu Yanran looked forward to Gu Jian with arrogance that ordinary women dare not show, like a colorful phoenix flying on the branches, gorgeous and dazzling. And now, although it is as bright as ever, there is less arrogance in the eyes, and more unwillingness, like a rose that supports itself on the branches.

She didn't want to let Jin Linglong go like this, and was about to say a few more words when she saw a young woman wearing a five-rank life woman dress come over. Take Jin Linglong's hand. Said with a smile: "I'll go back early tomorrow morning, go to Dongfu first, have lunch, and then go to Xifu to see my grandmother and third uncle, what about you?" ”

The young woman said this. It seemed that he had just seen Gu Yanran who was staring at them. Hurriedly saluted. Said apologetically: "Look at my eyes, it disturbs you to speak, this young lady is"

Linglong smiled and introduced: "Sister Lobby." This is Miss Gu Qi from the Zhenguo Mansion; This is my lobby sister. ”

When Gu Jinzhi fell in love with Jin Linglong, Gu Yanran had already inquired about the affairs of the Jin family, and when she heard Linglong call the young woman "Sister Lobby", she knew that this was Jin Xuanji, the eldest girl of the Jin family, and her husband was Dong Guanqing's cousin Dong Lian.

She nodded slightly: "It's okay, I'm just saying hello to Princess Rui, and you sisters will talk slowly." ”

After speaking, she turned around and left with Gu Jieyu.

Seeing her back, Xuanji patted her chest and said to Linglong complainingly: "You, you just don't have a long memory, the next time you see her, you will walk around, lest she calculate you again." ”

The Jin family knew about the incident on the street of Dengshi that day, and Xuanji obviously came to relieve her.

Linglong asked, "Is Grandmother here?" ”

Jin Er and Jin San are both five-grade officials, Mrs. Jin has a seal, she used to be in Jiangsu, Jin Er is in office, Jin San Mrs. Feng is sick again, therefore, the Jin family has never participated in the court meeting on the first day of the Lunar New Year, although Mrs. Jin arrived in the capital last year, but because she is a newcomer, no one notified her to enter the palace during the New Year.

But this year is different, as a relative of the emperor, as early as the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, there are eunuchs to the West Mansion to inform that if Mrs. Jin San is still sick, then the old lady of the Jin family will enter the palace according to the system.

Xuanji raised her chin, and Linglong saw the old lady Jin at the back of the line.

She was about to walk over when she saw a tall woman with a lot of makeup coming up to her.

Mrs. Mao.

Although I haven't seen her for a year, Mrs. Mao is as beautiful as ever, upright, heroic, and she walks next to a group of women, like standing out from the crowd, and is radiant.

Xuanji obviously knew Mrs. Mao, she and Linglong saluted Mrs. Mao together, Mrs. Mao stopped, glanced at Linglong, but said to Xuanji: "How is your mother?" Greetings to her for me. ”

Xuanji respectfully agreed, and Mrs. Mao walked past them with a relaxed posture, and did not say a word to Linglong from beginning to end.

Xuanji said: "Mrs. Mao doesn't like to be lively, maybe she doesn't know that Prince Rui has newly married a young and beautiful princess." ”

Linglong smiled indifferently, and said casually: "Yes, I haven't seen her when I entered the palace." ”

Having said that, she knew that Mrs. Mao must still remember her.

But why didn't you even have the most basic greetings when you saw her?

Even if Mrs. Mao really doesn't remember who she is, then put down her as a princess, not to mention, even ordinary elders will be polite when they see a junior saluting.

Since that chance encounter on the street of Dengshi, Linglong wants to be close to Mrs. Mao from the bottom of her heart. has lived two lives, and Mrs. Mao is the kind of woman she admires, free and easy, clear between good and evil, hearty and generous.

But people don't want to deal with her.

It was the same last time in the Jin family's East Mansion, knowing that she was coming, but when she passed, Mrs. Mao had already left.

Linglong was a little depressed, said a few words to Mrs. Jin, and exchanged a few words with Xuanji's mother-in-law, the second lady of the Dong family, and saw Begonia coming over, Linglong made a look, and the master and servant walked behind the white marble carved dragon column.

The third lady just saw the big palace maid beside Concubine Chen and talked for a while; The second lady had been quietly waiting for the summons. ”

Linglong nodded, and was about to say something more, when she saw Jingyi Nushi of Yonghua Palace leading two little palace maids over.

She smiled and saluted, Jingyi Nushi seemed to have come to her specifically, and said with a smile: "The queen asked me to ask Princess Rui, is that puppy okay?" Do you want to keep it all the time, or do you want to keep it for a while and then send it back? ”

Linglong was stunned, what does this mean? On this big day of the big court meeting, the queen made a special trip to send the precious Jingyi Nushi to ask her about the puppy?

The queen can't have a dog, and she doesn't care about that puppy at all.

Then she asked Jingyi to ask what she meant by that?

Why didn't she ask in the hall just now?

Got a dog?

Puppy?

small

A flash of inspiration flashed in Linglong's mind, and she suddenly understood.

"The tired female history told the queen mother for the concubine, although the puppy is still small, but very smart, the child wants to raise it for a while, whether it can be raised or not dare to say, at least let it not bite, the child does not understand, and ask the queen mother to guide at any time."

Hearing this, Jingyi turned around with a smile.

Linglong let out a long sigh.

This palace is really not something that ordinary people can live in, it's too brain-consuming.
