The news that Gong Xiru was made a marquis soon spread throughout the capital and beyond.

When Weaving Fan first heard the news, his eyes widened in surprise.

"Eldest Miss, Young Master Gong, should be the youngest Hou Ye so far. When the maid sees him in the future, she has to be called the Hou Ye. ”

She held her cheeks, not knowing what to think, and the smile on her lips grew bigger and bigger.

Zhi Yu was also shocked: "I didn't expect the emperor to make such a decision, and the maid was still worried at the time, whether Princess Haining would be married to the young master of the palace again." ”

Ling Yi said with a smile: "This kind of worry is redundant for the time being, the emperor has not mentioned Princess Haining's marriage for a long time, which shows that he has figured it out now." ”

"Figured it out?" Weaving Fan asked curiously.

The corners of Ling Yi's mouth were slightly raised, with a gentle smile, as soft as a spring breeze: "Of course, the Gong family is not the best candidate for harmony this time.

I think the emperor must have chosen a good person in his heart, but as he said, maybe due to some circumstances, the marriage has to be moved to the next year. ”

Weaving Fan guessed: "Both the right age, the family is good, the character is good, and the appearance is handsome, except for the palace family, the Bai family and the Zhang family, could it be that the emperor is ready to choose between these two?" ”

"The Zhang family has a connection with the Gong family, and the Bai family has a connection with the Ling family, since the emperor has given up the palace family, he will naturally not consider the Zhang family, and since he is hostile to the Ling family, he will definitely not consider the Bai family." Ling Yi concluded.

At this time, even Zhi Yu was confused: "Then who will this person be?" The princess has a noble status and a strong dowry, so she must be a prince and noble.

If the suitable sons are not within the range, then only the prince can choose. But there is no suitable prince. Otherwise, the emperor would not have held that hunt at that time. ”

Ling Yi stared out the window in a daze, pondering.

In fact, she didn't have an idea in her heart, and there was no suitable candidate among the princes. Among the sons of ministers, the candidates are also excluded, so who else can the emperor choose? Unless-

There was silence in the room, and the weaving fan knew that the two of them were in deep thought, she didn't like to waste her brains, and she also felt troublesome, so she clapped her hands and said loudly: "Young Master Gong has sealed the Hou Ye." The Gong family will definitely prepare a dinner party tonight, Miss, shall we go? ”

Ling Yi looked at her with an inexplicable smile.

The weaving fan was uncomfortable. Coughed dryly: "The maid thinks it's better to go to this kind of occasion, otherwise it will be rude to us." ”

"If you send a post, go for it." Ling Yi withdrew his gaze. I picked up the book again and started looking.

The weaving fan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. The post of the Gong family will definitely be sent.

Gong Xiru's prayer post was sent in the afternoon, and the banquet time began at the end of the unitary hour.

After Ling Yi changed into the third set of clothes, she saw that Zhi Yu was still dissatisfied, and smiled helplessly: "I just went to a celebration banquet, what are you doing so grandly." ”

Ori Yu shook his head and sighed, "Miss, you don't know. Young Master Gong is now sealed as Yan Linghou, and the women who have not left the pavilion in Beijing have locked their eyes on Young Master Gong.

At today's banquet. There must have been a lot of people, a lot of women dressed up in fancy clothes, although the eldest lady is naturally beautiful and no one can compare, but among so many people, if she is not dressed properly, she may still be drowned in the corner. ”

Ling Yi's eyes darkened, and he said lightly: "You should know, I said that I would never marry, and I and the eldest young master of the Gong family are not the kind of relationship you think, in the future, don't worry about this matter." ”

She changed out of her scarlet skirt, picked out a light blue dress, and took off the gold, gold, silver and silver headdress on her head, and only two or three pearl headdresses, which were just right and refreshing.

Zhi Yu said in a low voice: "The maid knows that the eldest lady has no intention of this, but why is a lifelong event a lifelong event, it is because it is a lifelong event, how can it be sloppy, how can it not be."

Is the eldest lady really willing to die alone for the rest of her life? Although the maid has overstepped, I still hope that the eldest lady can consider the Hou Ye, and the maid can see that he has you in his heart. ”

Ling Yi was stunned, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Zhi Yu apologized: "The servant is too talkative, please forgive the eldest lady, the sedan chair is ready." ”

Ling Yi walked out slowly, and Zhi Yu followed behind.

The weaving fan and others were spinning in place, and finally saw Ling Yi come out, and stepped forward to help the latter get into the sedan chair: "The master has already passed in advance just now." ”

Ling Yi nodded, and when she was about to get into the sedan chair, she saw Ling Hui walk out.

Weaving Fan explained: "The second lady should not have received the post, she went uninvited, she was really cheeky, she was like that, she dared to go out, if it was me, she would stay in the house for the rest of her life and not come out." ”

Because of Ling Hui's poisoning, coupled with Lu Xiaotian's "lack of learning", there was a scar on her face after all. She wears a veil when she goes out on weekdays, but she doesn't wear it today, but she has a heavy fat powder on her face, how weird it looks.

Ling Yi ignored it and went straight to the sedan chair.

Ling Hui looked at Ling Yi's delicate face, and then reached out and touched her face, the heavy fat powder made her want to hit the wall and die, but with her hatred for Ling Yi, she had to endure it, and even on such an occasion, even if she didn't want to go out, she still had to go with the fat powder.

Zou said: She is also a concubine now, and she also has the right to fight.

In the past, when others looked at her, she would be the daughter of a concubine, but now when others look at her, she is the daughter of a wife, and her status is very different.

With this little bit of relief, Ling Hui sat in a sedan chair and followed behind Ling Yi.

When the group came to the gate of the palace, Zhi Yu handed over the name card and handed the prepared gift to the guard.

The guards seemed to have gotten the news a long time ago, knowing that it was the eldest lady of the Ling family who was coming, and they were busy and courteously letting people lead the way.

Ling Yi followed the little maid to the inner courtyard, and after greeting the master of the palace, Zeng, she stayed away from the crowd of warblers and swallows, and sat alone in the corner drinking tea.

The strange little maid stepped forward: "I have seen Miss Ling, Master Hou invited Miss to go to the garden to talk about it." ”

"Garden?" Ling Yi hesitated, the garden was an open place, both men and women could enter, and it was much more open than the inner courtyard.

The little maid said again: "Master Hou said, I have something to find the eldest lady." ”

Ling Yi thought for a while, Gong Xiru is the kind of character who will only look for you if there is really something, so he asked the maid to lead the way and went to the garden with a weaving fan and weaving feathers.

The garden was much quieter than expected, there were not many Miss Gongzi, Ling Yi saw Gong Xiru at a glance, the latter was standing in the crowd, there was still no expression on his face, but he still gave a simple response to the conversation of the people around him.

There were also three or two women, their faces crimson, who didn't know what they asked or what they heard, and ran away shyly with the corners of their skirts.

Ling Yi couldn't help but laugh as she looked at it.

"What is Ling Yatou looking at so fascinated, she doesn't even know if I call you?" Zhu Mo sat beside Ling Yi.

Ling Yi glanced sideways at him, she hadn't seen him for a long time, the latter seemed to be a little darker, she smiled and said, "Your title of White Jade Prince, I'm afraid it will be changed to Black Jade Prince." ”

Zhu Mo held his face and was unconvinced: "I'm drying it outside, and I can come back in vain after a winter." ”

Ling Yi laughed out loud: "But you are still the black jade child." ”

"I-" Zhu Mo pursed his lips, not knowing how to refute for a while.

In the distance, it turned out that the white hairpin's cry: "Fusheng-Fusheng-"

As the voice got closer and closer, Bai Miaojia also got closer and closer, she was dressed in a pink shirt, looking pink and cute.

"I knew you would come, where there are them, there must be you, I came early with my father, and I was waiting for you here early in the morning, and I specially asked Master Hou just now to ask him to invite you over."

Ling Yi let Bai Miaojian sit next to him and asked, "What about your eldest brother?" ”

Bai Miaoqi pointed to a certain crowd of people: "Talking there, I don't like to listen to what they say, and it's boring to play by yourself, but fortunately, you're here." ”

Zhu Mo handed Ling Yi a piece of pastry: "Eat something, dinner will take a while." ”

Ling Yi waved his hand: "Don't be hungry for the time being, you can eat." ”

looked at the crowd again, and just saw Gong Xiru walking towards her, with a slender figure, a face like a crown and jade eyebrows, except for a cold face, which really made people feel that they had come out of the painting.

Zhu Mo looked at Ling Yi, then at Gong Xiru, and said with a smile: "I'm still better-looking, look at me, am I better-looking." ”

Bai Miaoqi glanced at him: "You are good-looking, better than your daughter, don't leave quickly." As he spoke, he pushed Zhu Mo away, regardless of whether the latter wanted it or not.

Gong Xiru came to Ling Yi with a plate of dim sum in his hand, "Eat some if you're hungry, it will take a while to eat." ”

Ling Yi smiled, paused for a moment, and finally twisted a piece, took a bite, and said softly, "Congratulations." ”

"What? Feudal marquis? Do you really think congratulations? Gong Xiru's eyes locked on her tightly.

Ling Yi took another bite and stared at the ground for a long time.

"You guessed it." Gong Xiru carried a hint of ridicule, "Although the emperor made me a marquis, the purpose behind this makes me very annoying. ”

"Everyone does one thing for a purpose, not to mention that he is the emperor." Ling Yi persuaded: "You also want to open some, Princess Haining is a good person, if you really get married in the future, it is not all bad." ”

Gong Xiru leaned a little closer and said word by word: "Do you really think so?" ”

Ling Yi's breathing tightened, a little uncomfortable, and he turned his face and said, "Fate is destined, and I can't force it." ”

Gong Xiru stared at the pastries on the plate, pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "I don't believe in fate, I only believe in myself." ”

Ling Yi turned his head to look at him: "Yourself?" You must know that many things cannot be changed by your own will alone, and there are too many things in this world that we cannot do anything about. ”

"But what I want to do is what I can do." Gong Xiru suddenly smiled, the corners of his mouth raised a gentle arc, and his eyes were brighter than the stars.

Ling Yi chuckled and nodded: "Okay, as far as the title of the youngest Hou Ye in history is concerned, you have that determination, what else can you stop." ”

The smile on the corner of Gong Xiru's mouth grew, and he handed the plate to Ling Yi, got up and said, "I'll go greet the other guests." ”

Ling Yi nodded slightly, smiling as he watched him leave. (To be continued......)
